down that line to find the rl&h; heir,

Deer at Sea.
One of the frreateat triumphs of ac
climatization erer achieTed, perhaps, is
the establishment of .he red deer in tbe
British colonies of the South Fdcifio. It
is no slight achlerement to carry fal
low deer, or ereo the little roe deer,
over 13,000 miles of stormy ocean, in
cluding a broad tract where the torrid
calms of tbe eqiror alternate with rag
ing tempests, and ending with a fort
night of cold cqaalls.
At length; however, a shipment of
red deer was successfully carried to
Nelson, a seaport at the head of Blind
Bay. in the northern part of the Middle
Island of Xew Zealand.
Stall almost exactly like ordinary
bore boxes bad teen fitted np for them
on tbe main deck ot tbe ship, and to
these tbey were transferred, baring
been taken down to tbe dock in a ran
and along on board, tbe day before
tbeir departure.
Seasickness Is proverbially capricious.
Some people are terribly sick when first
tbey go oa tbe rolling; deep, while oth
ers get tbeir sea legs at once and suffer
little or no inconvenience. This is
even more markedly the case with ani
mals. I have seen horses champ tbeir
chaff uninterruptedly from leaving the
wharf, through all sorts of weather,
while others beside them were pros
trated with agony and terror. So it
waa with our deer. Tbe big stag, sul
tan of tbe beard, was a wretchedly bad
sailor. For tbe first few days, when
we were tacking about the chops of the
channel or driving through a heavy sea
In the Bay of Biscay, he used to stand
shivering with bis forefeet wide apart.
bis head banging down helplessly and a
maas of spume drivelling from bis
mouth and nostrils. Once or twice be
trid to collapse on the floor of bis box.
but we stopped that by means of a
broad belly-band of canvas with a wool
ly sheepskin lining;. It was not until
we were off the Western Islands that
he fairly recovered ana took hi tncker
regularly without any unpleasant con
sequences. His lady loves, on the con
trary, were quite hearty from the start.
When the ship began to roll in tbe
heavy s ell of Deal, tbey opened their
great pathetic eyes very wide and sniff
ed Inquiringly, as if in feminine curi
osity to know what in thunder was tbe
matter with the ground. They also
had a peculiar babit of bristling up
their bilr and wrinkling tbeir skin
over the neck and shoulders as a si
lent protest against such goings on ;
bat they very soon settled down to their
new life, and never missed a meal from
the outset. We bad taken an ample
allowance of the best mixed bay. oats
and clover, in neat little trusses, at.d
enough acorns in barrels to give them
each about half a peck a day for a hun
dred days. For variety, we gave them
ship's biscuit every other day, and on
Sundry they used to be allowed a few
American dried apples or a little sugar
lor a treat.
Mixed-tip Marriages.
Ilenry Miller, a shoemaker who died
recently in Newark, had a remarkable
matrimonial career. His first wife
died in giving birth to a girl baby. He
arterwards married his wife's sister,
who also died in the course of a year,
just after having born to her a girl
fcaby. Miller waa an industrious fellow
and his father-in-law. a close fisted
dnirrman. brought about a marriage
wtween Miller and a third daughter.
In three years a girl baby was born and
the third wife and sister died. The
father in-law had died a year before
and the mother, who was a treble moth
er-in-law to Miller, and be mourned
the loss of their dead together. A mu
tual liking struck up, the result being
that mother in-law and son-intlaw Mil
ler became husband and wife.
. Their marriage was a happy one for
aimoat three years. Then Mrs. Miller
No. 4 gave birth to a girl baby, dying
within less than ten days. After the
little one was born Miller lived but two
months. II is four daughters, born nn.
der such peculiar circumstances, are
sim iiviDg. The first three are not on
ly stepsisters, but are cousins. The
fourth, the daughter of tbe mother in
law, is not only a cousin and ateD sla
ter, but likewise an aunt, while the
grandmoiher was step-mother to ber
own grandeniidren.
How Wire is Manufactured.
Wire Is now being manufactured
whether iron, copper, or brass by a
new acd greatly improved process, and
at a considerable reduced cost. The
machine devised for this purpose cons
sists of a series of rolls ia a continuous
train, geared with a common driver,
each pair of rolls having a greater speed
man tne pair preceding It. with an in
tervening triclion clutch adapted to
graduate the speed of the rolls to the
speed of the wire ia process of rolling.
The entire operation of producing the
smallest sized wires from rods of one
half inch is done cold. It is alleged
that this method obviates the danger of
unequal annealing and of bnrning in
the furnace in addition to this the
wire toiDg more flexible aad bomogen
ous than that made by any ordinary
method, and capable of sustaining
greater longitudinal strain ; in the cas
of copper wire there Is said to be a
greatly increased electrical conductiv
ity. Simple tore for Cramp.
A physician made this statement :
"When I have a patient who if subject
to cramps I sdvise him to provide him
self with a strong cord. A long garter
will do if nothing else ia handy. When
the cramp comes cn take the cord, wind
it around the leg over the place that is
cramped and Mike an end In e.ch band
and give it a sharp pull, one that will
hurt a little. Instantly the cramp will
cease and the sufferer can go to Led
&3urred tnat it will not come again
that night."

particular. Tbe general Idea of tbe
subject will be found to be vague and
uncertain. One of tbe moat terse and
concise descriptions of the natural phe
nomenon is that given by Mr. Ilirn
Ha sajs :
The sound which is known as thun
der is due simply to the fact that the
air traversed by an electric spark tbat
is, a flash of lightning is auddonlv
raised to a very hlffh temoeratur and
has Its rolamn considerably Increased.
The colume of ess suddenly heater! and
expanded is sometimes several miles
long and as the duration of the flash is
not even a millionth nt a aannt
-- wwvfUU, 41
follows that the noise burst forth t
once from the whole column, though.
ror an observer in any one place it com.
meaces where the liehtnini? i at thA
least distance.
Iu precise terms, according tr Mr
Ilirn, tbe beginnlne of the thnndnr .ian
gives us the minimum distance of the
lightning and tha length of the thunder
clap gives us tbe length of the column.
He also remarks that wren a flash of
lightning strikes the ground, It is not
necessarily from the place struck that
the firBt noise is heard. Aain
points out tbat a bullet whistles in tra
versing the air so thai we can, to a
certain extent, follow its flight tha
same thing also happening with a faUen
meteorite just before striking the earth.
Tbe noise actually heard has beeu com
parer! to the sound produced when one
tears linen. It is due really to the fact
that the air rapidly pushed on one side
in front of the projectile whether bnl-
let or meteorite quickly rushes back to
fl'l tbe gap left In the rear.
A Minister's Perquisites.
The perquislties of a minister's life
are, as a general thing overestimated.
An old clergyman firmly believed this
who had received a call to a small
charch from bis much larger parish in
Massachusetts. A delegation from the
church was sent to orge him to accept
the call. He asked them what tLe
the salary was. They replied that It
waa about six hundred dollars per year,
but that tbe people were very generous
and were continually bringing in things
to tbe minister.
"Well," answered the old minister,
"I don't wish to offend you, bnt I
must positively decline. And now let
me give ytu a bit of my experience. In
rcy younger days I received a call to a
small pariah where, as in the case with
your people, they were very liberal. It
was their custom to always give the
minister a ball of butter whenever they
churned, and a quarter of veal when
they slaughtered. I accepted the call.
Things went along as they represented
durine the first year. After that there
began to be falling oil in their dona
tions, until soon I received next to
nptniDg. I began to make iDquirie.
One of my parishioners told me (bat I
gave perfect satisfaction, but the peo
ple had begun to 'raise their calves.
And il has been my experience.'- con
tinned tLe old minister, "that donating
parishioners soon begin to 'raise their
calves.' "
Ueer Drinking In Bavaria.
"Wbile traveling in Germany and Ba
varia during the past summer I was
much Interested in watchiog the people
drink beer ," said Kalph L. Sbainwald
of that city. "In Bavaria there was a
keg of beer ou tte platform of every
station. When the train stopped there
was a grand rush to Ret at the keg.
Eeacb man carried bis glasc. After
drinking all he could before tbe train
started the beer drinker filled his glass
to the brim and carried it into the car.
After the glass was empty it was set
upon the window sill of the car. All
along tbe whole length of the train on
both sides glasses sat on the window
sills, silent mementoes of the bibulous
tastes of tbe pisjeogers on the tram.
At one station I saw the train delayed
for five mioutts because the keg was
empty. A full one had to be procured
before the passengers would resume
toeir Beats in the coaches." Mr. Shain
wald said tbat each glass contained a
pint, and tbat tbe cost was about the
equivaleot of two cents. As an exams
pie or German beer capacity in Mun
ich, Sbainwald said the beer was served
in glasses nearly a foot tall, and con
taining nearly one quart.
A iong W Titer's Seglertetl Urate.
There is a little green mound and
bumble marble slab, in a secluded cors
ner of Otterbein Cemetery, about twelve
miles north of the city, which marks
the grave of the author of that famous
ballad. "Darling Nellie Gray.' A Tis
itor to the spot learns from the inscrip
tion on tbe stone tbat it is the lat rest
ing place of BeDjamin Russell Hanby.
Tbe seclusion of the tomb, the neglect
shown it by all save a few relatives,
and the general ignorance of Its loca
tion, form another illustration of the
forgatfulness or the human race. Not
withstanding tbe grave of the author
of "Darling Nelllie Gray" Is forgotten
and neglected, his owu beautiful bal
lad has sculptured out for him a mon
ument of memory which will endure
tbe changes or centuries to come.
The Jladgascar Queen.
A recent visitor to Madgascar says
that the Queeu is a small slender wo
man about twentv-three years of age
of very light color, and very sad. Her
dresses all come from Taris. Oa the
day the correspondent saw her she
wore a white cashmere robe with a
heavy silk train, a mantle or the same
with cut steel buttons, a hat of white
silk, with ostrich feathers and silver
crescent ornaments, a cut steel b'oocn
and earrings and pendants, and white
kid four-button gloves, with bracelets
of tbe national "jewel," red coral.

Wool Gathering hi the Faroes.
Writing from one of the Faros Is
lands, a correspondent of the New
York Herald says : On my way down
my attention was attracted to several
women making their way along the
side of tbe mountain with business liks
alacrity, carrying baskets and occasion
ally stepping to pick something from
the ground. This led me to csnjec
lure whether any sort of fruit or vege
table was being gathered, but on near
er approach I found that, they were
collecting tufts of wool, which semel
to be scattered in considerable quanti
ties over these graziDg hmds. Upon
subsequent enquiry I learned that al
though aheep are reared in large cum-
oers, none ae ever thorn, the wool be
ing either pulled or allowed to rail
from the sheep, and In that way a great
er proportion of it has to be picked
from tbe fields In the manner practised
by the women to whom I have referred.
