palmistry: A. man who despises the
tattling of a tea cup has no aversion to
having his hand held by a pretty girl while
the lines are read. But as men are not,
as a rule, given to tea -drinking, they will
not grope after futurity in tea leaves.
But the tea cup oracle is a very harm -
lees, inexpensive form of destiny. Its
present popularity is doubtless owing to
that secret craving after the supernatural
which marks the age. It gives expression
to an almost despairing wish to see the
coming to -morrow.
And in response to this demand come
the sootheayere, astrologers, seers, clair-
voyants, seventh daughters of seventh
.daughters, and others who predict future
events. There aro secret sessions where
the flower and chivalry of the best society
-attend, paying a fee that ranges from '$l
to $8—just from curiosity, you know!
What to learn?
The secrets of the past, present and
future.
There is always some lucky hit—lucky
for the fortune-teller.
The most of people who have lived to any
age have friends coming from a distance.
Many have relatives who die and leave
them fortunes. Young people are usually
in love with some one of the opposite sex
who is either dark or fair; and a journey
is imminent in nearly all conditions.
Crossing the water may mean going over a
ferry or a running brook as well as the
ocean.
But the mystic quality lies in the fact
that theperson telling all these things is an
announced seer—born with a caul, like
David Copperfield, and having intimate re-
lations with the world of futurity and the
poweis of mystery.
No matter how ignorant of the civilizing
influences of this life the inspired fortune-
teller may be, how cheaply gotten up, or
with what sordid circumstances environed,
professors of all the sciences are willing to
kneel at her feet to learn the secrets of the
past, present and future from her occult
.knowledge.

BRIDES DE THE MAO KING*
Tragic 'ceding of a Oranges Manta Among
the 'Malden, of Havarla.
A. curious feminine mania is called to
mind by be recent tragic news •from
Munich. Two young ladies of that city—
Baronesses—have committed enicide by
drowning in the Sternberg Lake, at the
very spot where the mad King Louis
drowned himself last year. The names of
these ladies are familiar to all yeho have
been admitted to the best Munich society.
They were eiders, aged 23 and 26, and
were fomed for their beauty. Their family
is a very noble and wealthy one. The mania
to which Ow fell yictime had its origin
fifteen or sixteen years ago. The young
King watt then at the height
of bid romantic fame. His ideally
handsome likeness was to be seen
everywhere, and everywhere you heard talk
of his poetic melancholy, his romantic
spirit and confirmed celibacy. g Naturally
he became an object of intense interest to
sentimental young ladies. Presently,
among the other absurd tales that were
told of him, there went abroad the story
that he spent most of his time in wander-
ing about his kingdcim in disguise. He
haunted shady lanes aid romantic spots,
seeking for some fair maiden who should
be his chosen bride. Well, ;this silly tale
was believed and set thousands of hearts to
fluttering. Each maiden wondered if she
would be his choice if he chanced to meet
her under the lime trees. And she hesitated
to plight her troth to her ,village lover until
she should have had a chance to meet the
King.
So it came to pees that in the village of
Bertoldshofen, in the romantic mountain
region of Southern Bavaria, the maidens
formed themselves into a sort of sisterhood.
They pledged themselves to each other not
to marry until they were sure the King
had passed them by. Each was to wear
his likeness constantly next her bosom,
and each was to choose for herself a secret
bower where at eventide she should await
his coming.: A more foolish scheme,
probably, never' was 'devised , by the silly
brains'of loVe,-sick school 'girls. But more
than a 'Score of Bertoldshofen maidens
entered into it with the zeal and devotion
of nuns. The fame of this sisterhood
spread to other villages, to towns and
cities—nay, to Munich itself. Rustic
wenches and the petted beauties of 'Princely
palaces alike caught the mad disease.
Within a year not less than 10,000 young
women, all through Bavaria, had taken
upon themselves the "vows of Ludwig"
and were waiting for their King.
In time many of these girls imagined
they had been seen and passed by by the
Ring, and, thus figed from their vows, ac-
cepted humbler husbands. Others grew
tired of waiting and broke their vows. Still
others waited and waited in vain, until all
other suitors had passed them by; and they
are waiting still and will be waiting all
their lives. But as the ranks of the origi-
nal sisterhoods were thinned new recruits
were added and the "brides of Ludwig"
were still counted by thousands. It is esti-
meted that there were no less than 7,000 of
them at the time of his suicide. When the
news of that tragedy became known they
forthwith put on mourning and
called themselves "the widows of
Ludwig." Many of them took solemn
vows of life-long celibacy as a token
of faithfulness to his memory. Among
these latter two of the most devoted were
the young Baronesses of Munich to whom
we have referred. They constantly wore
the deepest mourning, secluded themselves
from all social pleasures and drove them.
selves into confirmed melancholy. Every
week they went to Sternberg and threw
garlands of flowers into the water at the
spot where the King was drowned. Finally
they determined to share hie fate. They
arrayed themselves as brides, even to don-
ning veils and orange blossoms, rowed out
into tke lake to the,mpot where he was
drowned and threvrethemselves into the
water. Their bodies were found next day
clasped in each other's arms and with por.
traits'of the man King next their hearts.—

righting Savages.
Advices from Sierra Leone say that native
warriors under three chiefs invaded the
British settlement of Sherbro and Sultyus,
pillaging and burning villages en route, tor-
turing and killing the native inhabitants
and taking 300 prisoners. On entering
British: territory the marauders divided
,into,two forces and tried to capture the
French factory at Salymot and an ,English
factory on the Mom& River, both of which
were stocked with 'valuable merchandise.
Mr. Burnett, English Agent, at the head
of native laborers and police, desperately
resisted the savages, who were compelled
to retreat after the third attack, leaving
many of their number dead. They besieged
the station, however,for three days,when the
gunboat Icorious arrived on the scene and
landed a force of marines, who quickly put
the savages to flight. The attaches of the
French factory repulsed the attack made
upon them unaided.

According to the latest advices freau
Italy * discovery of a Most important
character has been recently niede amid the
ruins of 1.129 "Meted eity,nt Ponipeii. While
workmen, employed hy an American
speculator, were plying their picks with
that subdued accent peceliar te natives of
pcnithern Europe, they by the merest
ehance knocked the scuttle off the roof of
a building which subsequently turned out
to be a bake ahop. It wee a two*story and
basement brick edifice. On the top floor,
which was plainly but neatly furnished,
were found the petrified bodies of the
baker's wife and two children, one appar.
ently about 12 and the other about 8
years of age. In the parlor, which had
an extension looking out on a small
yard, the speculators came across
a lyre, something which looked like a baby
carriage and a box fnll of ivory disks, some
of which were colored red, others blue and
still more white. In the basement, of
course, was found the oven. It was about
four feet high, two feet in width and six
feet in depth, and, according to a calculi',
tion made by an eminent antiquarian, may
have been capable, when in its prime, of
turning out 347 Pompeian loaves an hour.
The baker himself, poor wretch, WAS With
face down right near the steps leading into
the street. In one hand he had a policy
slip and in the other sixteen demade, prob-
ably all the money he had taken in that
day. Ono of the gentlemen conducting the
search expressed hie opinion that if Pompeii
ever had boasted of policemen, there must
be the ruins of one in that shop. Curious
to relate, he was correct in his surmise.
After a lot of stone crullers and adamantine
pies had been shovelled away, the
honest workmen turned up a regular
old fashioned "cop." His clothes,
which ages ago had lost their elasticity,
consisted of a sort of „Mother Hubbard
tunic, ciit ?deck inthe back, a pair of full,
regular made straw nooks and a brass hat.
The gel:interim' had'eVidently taken off his
sandals, to give them 6 chanee to dry, for
they were folind 'near the ash pit of the
oven. ilia club, which had a lot of spikes
and a piece of scythe stuck in it, was lying
on the counter, as was his belt. Glued fast
to the mouth of the deceased was a curious
vessel, evidently of tin, and which must
have been nearly full of some liquid, when
nature stopped the clock and the policeman
ceased to swallow. Experts, who have
examined the contents of this vessel, say
that could they be again reduced to a fluid
state they would closely resemble the
modern beer of commerce. The remains
of the departed officer have been buried,
and above them a stone bearing this in-
scription, "In death they were not parted,"
has been placed.—Brooklyn Eagle.
Good News from the Prairie.
Mr. Robert Gibson, son of Mr. Andrew
Gibson, of Beverly township, and son-in-
law of Mr. John Diokie of Puslinch,
writes a very encouraging letter under date
of May llth, from which is extracted the
following "We have had a very fine
spring this year, and have juat got through
seeding. I started to sow on the 2nd of
April, and was delayed about a week by
enowfalls and frosts at nightbut since
about the 20th of April we have had most
beautiful weather. Have sown 300 acres
of wheat and 50 acres of oats, and now (at
time of writing) it is almost all up, and
looks nice, as we have had several fine
showers this spring. We live nine miles
south of the town of Virden, Man. one of
the most promising places on the line of
the C. P. R.'which is surrounded by a
country well adapted forgeneral agriculture
or dairy purposes. Oak Lake, a beautiful
sheet of water, lies seven miles to the east
of us; it contains an island of about 600
acres, mostly covered with oak timber. On
a clear day we can see the water of this
lake quite distinctly. Our winters out here
appear to be long, but it is because there is
no break in them. The ground usually
freezes up about the lst of November and
winter sets in in earnest about the let of
December, generally lasting till the 1st of
April. On the whole we are well satisfied
with the country and our Western home."
Mr. and Mrs. Gibson are coloniets of the
right cast, possessing a goodly share of
both industry and intelligence. The TIMES
congratulates them on their enterprise and
prosperity. in the West, and the many
friends of both throughout the townships
of Bervely andruslinch will read with Plea-
