lUrd KKllncr In the Fast. During th-i Us- c?iitury when long journeys, c riding p;ists, were much in vogu in Hump among the mrUtoC racy ami wealthy spirting men, a tn.tch w.i ruvl b-twien Mr. Slafts and Mr. Mtywell for 1 000 guineas. Mi. Shafts to tin.l a man who would ride 100 milr-a per diy for 27 consecq tlre d.iys. Thera was a grat deal of money bet oa th's 'htnjr. principally against it bes log dine. It wis we'l kn jwo, however, that liWancea of SOOto 1200 or even 1 .MO miles had fre rjnently ben covered at th rate of from 100 ti 120 or even l."0 miles pt diem, bu the knitting ons th-iusht that the enoranas dis tance of 2,700 miles at 100 pr day wjuM be likety to break any horman down. Nevertheless Mr. John Wood cock, whs was srlec'ed to ride by Mr. Shafts, performed the fe-at wi'hou! any i exn f.iMdut- or punishment. II used thirty horse, an 1 rode three or four of them eirh dy. Iu Turkey the Su'tan's mails and dfspa'chns from nutiyiij province used to be eirr'Ml by Ttrtars rldioc post, with rel.iys of lior.es changed every twenty or thirty miles, ar.rl are now in sim rurts of the country where tele graphs h ve not ben esUb'ished. The same man in charge went the whole distar.c ; these couriers would often perform great feat9 of endurance. From liig lad to Constantinople is 1 000 miles, not over a level or rolling prairie, but frequent !y cn.s'ing Mountain ranges along prnciphKS across torrents, and th,T is not a mi!? cf m ids road the whole wjy, yet the ordinary time the T.irr irs to, k to perform the diitar.ee was a foiti)i?,t, aiid on urgent occa- sums u ha, b,.en d t.i twelve days, j a'id even in eleven d vs. ! There 13 no doubt whatever about this, beciuse this route through Asia Minor, from the Persian Gulf, was, in former days, before the lid Sea rout was established, often uwl by officers aud others who did not mind rough travel and were in a hurry to get home or to gt out to India, and they often rode with the Tartars from end to end, besides which the Urifish Resident at Uagdud, or rather the residency was for more than a century in the habit of tranomi'tlng lrsptcha from India to Constantinople and Europe by these sam carriers. A much a l"i0 miles per day has often ben done for e'ght or ten days by the Tirtsre. Thev only rested four hours out of the twenty four, and pushed on the rest o' the time at a rate of six to ten miles an hour. A Weddln-r in Fjrjpt. On th. prinMpl sot we heard music In the dU'a'ire. and cunfrg nearer found that a wertd'ng was in progress. A matting ws spread upon the ground, iipir. wh'ch the tride. a rather old rind ra'her cross look'ng Nubian girl. sat. Her veil was the uual shawl, this time of white. Also upon the tnat tirg sat the mnicians, two drummers 'ayinar nnon a s!ngle instrument, a pe cuUarUv lorg drum. A woman sat at one end of i a man at the other, botb beating together, nsing al'ernatt-ly the palm of the hand and a drums' Irk. Tt this music a number of women in gav drssts were dancing, two at a time, taking turns In rt lnriaMng over the head of trie bride a poU about six feet Mng. We shopped in the encircling crowd to see what was goirg on, and had s'ond there but two or three mo m-nts wen "ne of the wrmn who had b-en dnc'ng suddn'y threw herself headlong nu m 'h on'ting. closed her eyes nd semd ti eo cfT In a kind of fit.

The Ostrich In ( alilornia. Skittered throujh"nt Sonlhfrn ('ili fornia are to be found many ostrich f3rms. bnt the largst perhaps are those at Fallbrcok and Tassadena. At the former place there is a ranch which contains sevnty. The birds are valued at ?1 000 to ?1 -200 each. They are enor mous creatures, six to eight reet high, and weighing '200 to :W0 pounds. The females are smaller than the males, and lay about ten eggs, possibly as high as sixteen, one eveiy other day, which are placed in tbe nest vertically, smallest down. Under certain circumstances a bird may lay as many as Qfty eggs in a year, quite large, measuring eighteen inches in circumference cd weighing three to four pounds. Tbe shells are one-twelfth of an inch thick, and are used by the natives as water vessels. They feed on alfalfa, cabbage, ccra. doura (Indian mtllet), etc., acd each aJult consumes about forty pounds of food daily. They will swallow almost anything, large, stones, bits of brick, metals, coin, etc., all of which they are able to digest. One of the birds at Sn Diego is said to be thirty-two years old, but in their native land they are reputed to live to the advanced age of eighty to one hun dred years. Tbe period of incubation is forty-two days, tbe male performing that duty from 4 r. M. to G A. M., while Lis generous spouse assumes the deli cate care cf the prospective family the remaining part of the day. Ob. What a a-i. Will you heed tbe warning.

Of tbe famous genera's of tbe "old army" I remember Scott, Wool and Ilaruey. tbe last mentiooed two partic ularly, because I served in tbe depart ments they Immediately commanded long before tbe Civil War. Scott and Ilarnej were magnificent types of pbys lea! manhood each about six feet four Inches tall and straight as arrows. Wool was of the average height, but a thorough soldier. General Scott was passionately fond of whist, bat could not biook carelessness or any infringe ment of tbe roles of tbe game, so he generally bad tbe 'dommy" for bis partner. Another unpardonable sin in tbe veteran' eyes was for any one to cat lettuce. Many an officer who had tbe honor to dine at bis table has been severely rebaked for daring to cat tbe succulent green leaves with bis knife. General Wool loved the great Amer lean game of draw poker, and for that reason had none but the sons of wealthy men on bis staff, who could affjrd the hazards of cards. There was a story of him, current In the army, of bow, ouce on bis tour tf inspection at one of tbe posts of hit department, after the cere monious duties were over, be repaired to tbe clnbroom. In tbe sutler's build ing, where a group of young officers, who bad just received their monthly salaries from tbe paymaster tbat day, bad gathered at one of the round tables for a "friendly game" of draw. These gentlemen were comparative strangers to the General, having met him a few hours previously on review. As be entered all arose and saluted him, and one suggested "tbat perhaps he was acquainted with the intricacies of tbe fascinating gme and that perhaps be would like to take a band." Tbe Gen eral quietly observed -'that be was fa miliar with the value of different cards." Thereupon be sat down and in a shore time he "cleaned out" tbe tbe young gentlemen. I do not vouch for the troth of tbe story, but it was "common property" among officers years ago. The Lady aad the Cigar. Tbe train from Tarts to Versailles was to leave In five minutes. An ele gantly dressed gentleman entered a Crst-clasa carriage. lie has a burning cigar In bis month. lie Is about 'to take bis seat when ha perceive an eld erly lady In the carriage. Beinr a iren tleman, be raises tbe window aod is about to throw oat the cigar, when tbe old lady says : Don't you know that you are forbid to smoke In a tirstclass carriage when there are ladies in il?" "My dear madame. yon see I was just about to anticipate your wish bv throwing away my cigar. However. I will not disturb you further," and bow- log very stiffly be left tbecir. and oar cbssing a third-class ticket he took his seat among some peasants, where he could smoke undisturbed. There was sitting near the gentleman a wretched looking tramp, who emetled horribly of carlie, and who was about as disagreeable a neighbor as can well be imagined. "Mr good fellow," said the gentle man, "did yon ever ride in a first-class carriage ?' "Never." Well, here's a ticket thar I can't nae. Jast too go Into that first-class carriage. There Is a vacant seat next to an old lady ; just take it.'' The man who was ssdly in need of disinfectants, did as be was told. A few minutes after be entered the first class carriage the doors were closed, and off went the train, which does not stop at aoy of tbe stations between Taria aod Versailles. You cat imas Ine whether or not the gentleman got even. A Market lor Old Postage Stamps. There Is an asylum for orphan girls in Loclo, Switzerland, which fiods a market for all the old postage stamps sent to it. X early everybody far and near acquainted with tbe fact sends to tbe asylum hi or her second-hand stamps, and. for the information of those who are Ignorant, a circular Is iasued calling for the contribution of stamps and also setting forth the uses to which they are applied. Rare stamps of course, go to dealers or col lectors, while the commoner sorts are applied to decorative purposes, being need to ornament screens, shades, etc., and even, so says tbe circular, to paper rooms. Over a million of stamps were re ceived by tbe institution from all over tbe world la 1SSS, and a considerable larger Dumber last year. Tbe stamps are assorted by tbe children and pat up in packages of 50 or 100 each. Those collected In 1839 were sold for 1200 francs or 1240, and those of last year far 52GO. This mav not seem much to Americans, bat money goes farther in Switzerland than here. Tenons, there fore, who wants to pat their old postage stamps where they will do tbe moet good should send them to M. J. Moo siur, Direoteur de PAsile des Billodes, Locle. Switzerland. A Carbenle Arid Gas ban. M. Gerrard, a French inventor, baa produced a gun which shoots, not by tbe aid of villainous saltpetre, bat by condensed carbonic acid gas. i'oa pall a trigger, one drop of tbe cocdeosed gas enters tbe chamber of tba gun. It Is instantly reconverted into gas, and the presnre drives oat the ballet with a Telocity continually accelerated until it leaves tba muzzle. Mr. Gerrard claims tbat you can fire withoat stoppinc to reload. 300 bullet, one after tbe other, with tbe carbonic acid condensed in a small cylinder, twelve inches long. There la 00 flash, no report, 00 smoke, no recoil, and no beat. Iu visible death ean be rained upon the enemy at 1200 yatds' range, without aoy sign being afforded h!tn of tbe position from whence tbe ballets come. The gas nee eesary toproielthe 300 ballets costs one penny. It is perfectly safe against accidental explosion, and is proof against fire and water. If tbe experts menta justify the claims of tbe Inven tor, gua powder will jola tbe bowstring and the catapult.

It bae jast come to llgbt tbat a party of CbiEese, who attrmptf'd to tmugle therxpflTf s into ihe United States from Lower California, got lost on tbe desert and baa terrible experience, one of tbe party djicp of thirst and exposure. Tbej foond tbe frontier so closely gaaidtd tbat tbey stole a march toward tbe tftstwaid and got Into tbe desert. Here tbey got lost snd wandered aim lessly around for several days, suffering unalterable agonies. Oae of tbe Mongolians was a youtn of some fourteen year-. lie gave out co der tbe terrible suffering nod became crazy. In bis raving be imsgined tbe blistering sand were limpid water and eagerly filled bis parched moutS witb tbe burnirg particles. This only added to its horrors, and pretty soon be lay down and died, bis companions being in too pliirul a condition to render him any assistance. Here they heaped a pile of aand npon bim and left bim alone to sleep bis last long slumber. wb!Ie they, witb swollen tongue, aching limbs and heavy hearts continued tbeir aim'ess wanderings lost Id a trackless desert. It is asserted tbat tbey at last reached tbe railroad and soon reached Los Angles minna every thing tbey bad attempted to bring into tbe country except tbe clothes upon tbeir backs Tbey bad thrown away the bundles con taining tbe many things tbat Chinese bold dear, including a large quantity of opium, all of which marked tbeir track upon tbe waste of sands. As the almond-eyed ones have a sys tem of threading information among themselves, it is quite likely a terrible experitnee will strve to prevent any more of them attempt leg to invade the United S'.atts via tbe desert route. Time Works Wonders. Mr. and Mrs. Calendula C. Rate were at Niagara Falls on their wedding jour ney. Tbey bad wandeied rapturously about arm in arm, listening to tbe roar of tbe mighty cataract. Tbey bad bought bead work moccasins aod pin cushions from Indian squaws who spoke witb a strong Tipperary accent ; they bad contributed handsomely to the sup port of several princely back drivers ; paid for tbe right to look at tbe falls from all tbe eligible points of view, and bad been banted wi h great success by prowling photographic banditti. And now tbey stood in tbe Ctve of tbe Winds. Tbe thunder of Niagara overpowered them. Tbey looked at each other, aod their lips moved, but If acy sound came from them it conld not be beard in tbe deafening roar. Calendula pressed tbe little band tbat lay confidingly on bis arm, and led bis fair young bride from tbe cave witb all possib'e speed. "Japon'.ca." be said, tenderly, when tbey had regained the open air, "do you know why I could not bear to linger in tbat horrible place.' No. Why waa it?" "I could not bear your beloved voice, my darling." Five years bad passed. Mr. and Mrs. Calendula C. Rite were again at Niag ara on a littla Sammer vacation. Tbey bad dismounted from tbe omnibus, en tered tbe hotel, registered at tbe clerk's office and removed from themselves tbe dust of travel. "Now; Japonica," said the husband, hastily, witb a yearning, hungry look In his eyes, "before we do anything else let as go and spend an hour or two in the Cave of tbe Winds. Tbe First Ire In India. When one of the first 'mportations of ice from America arrived la India it was amusing to see 'be anxiety with which it was sought after. Tbe deposits were only open for a short time before sun rise, and crowds of Coolies were in at tendance to carry off portions required by their employers. These portions were immediately enveloped in thick blankets and inclosed In baskets, which were canied off with all speed ; but a very considerable quantity Invariably dissolved before they could teach tbeir respective destinations. Two or three natives crowding around a basket which bad just arrived were eager to touch the novelty ; but imme diately on feeling its extreme co'dness they ran away, exclamlng tbat it was "burra gurram1' very hot. A child too, cried violently, and told bis uaam ma that tbe "wirss bad burnt bis fin gers." It was brought to the table as tbe greatest possible luxury, and banded round . to persons to mix with tbeir wioe ; which although cooled witb salt peter and glauber salts, bad not attin ed a much lower temperature than of new milk. Tbe ice in question was taken out to India as a means of preserving a large quantity of American apples in Rood condition for tbe Calcutta market, when tbe ice unexpectedly proved a more lucrative species . of. merchandise than tbe fruit. - .-;.- Edison's Disco Terj of the I'honograph. 'Edison was a very cool man. When experimenting on tbe telephone tbe vi bratory movements of the diaphragm suggested tbat their possible reproduc tion might be retained. With this characteristic determination to investi gate all phenomena that presented tberoaelvea, be hit npon tbe principle of recording tbe vibrations. Tbe result was a -very crude phonograph with itt tin foil cylinder. It , was made at Meolo Park, and. being put to a prae lical test; Its possi Dili ties were ex ploited by all of us and bur impatience became painful. Edison prepared for tbe first test aod dictated 'Mary Ilad a a Little Lamb' into a large paper fun nel. Kieozi. a confidential friend ot tbe inventor, stood . by and ventured that the verse would be repeated by the machine. Edison turned tbe machine in the opposite "direction and said calmly to Krenzi 'I'll bet yoa 57 that it will talk back.' "There was silence for an instant and then came the words back through the funnel : 'Mary Had a Little Lamb.' "Krenzi jumped all over tbe room in his exitement, while Edison simply twisted bis bead and said, witb a quiet smile : 'Krenzi, I have won the 57.' " R. L. JOHSSTOS. M.J.gtCK.
