Peculiar Cestom of the Arab Ladies of Zanzibar, The Arab ladles of Zanzibar live In great seclusion In the large white houses, never going out in the daytime from one year's end to another, says the Manchester Guardian. A little cooking and sweetmeat making Is their suly recognized employment, though some few of them can do beautiful slik embroidery. To lle on thelr beds and be fanned by their slave girls is the usual occupation of the richer women, 1f they want to visit their friends, or, gs 1s more often the case, to perambu- fate the town, they walt until 8 o'clock in the evening, when a gun is fired warning all Mohammedans that it is the fifth and last hour of prayer; then they may go out. They are entirely enveloped In large mantles and thelr faces completely hidden by very ugly gilt masks, with oblong slits for the eves, and many of them wear these even in the privacy of thelr own homes, Their other garments are trousers and a tunic reaching below the knee, which is often embroidered and trimmed with gold brald. They have a number of gold and silver ornaments, nose rings and earrings, bracelets, anklets, and £0 on. They are very light in color, many of them cream colored, Thelr features are regular and good, and they have dark eyes and silky black hair. They paint under thelr eyes and stain their hands and nails a reddish color with senna. If they want to go any distance from home they ride through the narrow streets on large white asses stained a brick red, their slaves running by thelr sides, but you generally meet them stalking solemnly along, surrounded by their slaves, who carry enormous lan- terns as big as a London street lamp. Very often they do not return home till 4 in the morning, when another gun is fired proclaiming the first hour of prayer. It is very awkward at times when you meet in the streets some of these ladles whom you ought to know and are greeted by them, You cannot see their faces, it is not always easy to recognize a volee, and nothing w ould offend them than to ask thélr names more FREAKS OF THE LAVA, Some Curious Incidents of an Over flow of Vesuvius. At one house, which had been entire- ly surrounded by the flood, but not de- stroyed, one saw people, on top of the mass of lava, entering the upper win- dows with a ladder and bringing forth their household goods to transport a place of safety.

Yard by yard the lava swept onward. Now a palatial villa would be surrounded by the torrent, crushed down and disappear in smoke; now a weeping peasant would see his little cottage and vineyard, his all goander in an instant One poor woman was thus watclidng the fate of her earthly belongings from a little eminence when a smaller crater came roaring forth at her very feet She turned to flee, fell, rolled to the bottom of the little hill, aml the next moment the lava flowed fonth like the foam from a glass of beer and swept over the spot where she had been standing an P.

Few persons realize that the so called battle of Waterloo double battle, somewhat like Jena and Auerstadt. Napoleon fought one bat- tle at Waterloo against the English. On the arrival of the Prussians he was forced to go in person toward Planche- noit and there fight another battle against the Prussian army, leaving to Ney the conduct of the troops at Wa- terloo. It is a well known maxim in war that a very great or decisive vic- tory cannot be gained unless one com- meander makes & serious blunder of which the other takes immediate ad- vantage. It is very evident that the fact of the emperor having to fight two battles at once instead of concen- trating his attention on one alone enor mously increased the possibility of a mistake. Moreover, Napoleon did not have the able lieutenants of his former campaigns Desaix, Kleber, Lannes and Bessieres were dead, Massena and Macdonald had taken the oath of alle- glance to the Bourbons, and Murat had split with the emperor. Napoleon's personas! attention was therefore im- perative. To Grouchy alene all blame must be attributed, for had he prevent ed the union of the Prussians with the English the emperor would have had to fight only one battle at a time and could have given entire personal attention to that one battle, In the second place, Napoleon would pot have been forced to fight with 71, O47 men against two armies numbering about 125.000-—npearly two to one against him. He would have had 71,- 047 good soldiers pitted against a raw, undisciplined army of 67,661 men un- der the Duke of Wellington, which was pot only inferior in mere numbers, but far Inferior in morale and experience I'he chances would have been greatly in Then, too, the French inmanded by the acknowledged master of modern war fare, whose brilliant successes at Ri voli, Marengo, Austerlitz, Jena, Fried- land, Wagram, the Borodino and Dres. den had dazzled the whole world. Un til then Napoleon had never been de feated in any great decisive battle ex- cept Leipsic, and the French were strong in thelr confidence of the em peror's RUCCOSHE Two of the best writ- Waterloo campaign, Shaw and Sibourne, both English concur in saying that had Grouchy kept the Prussians away the English arm) been badly beaten, This view is also held by the ablest writer of all, Mr. Ropes —United Serv fee Review, his favor of the French was « army ers on the Kennedy men, would have A man should have sense and wo man taste The smartest bass finally runs across a bait that fools him.

Wateh Records. “That man's watch holds the record for his town,” a jeweler sald. "It has run for twenty-two years without stop- ping. Aside from a little regulating, oiling and cleaning, it has never need- ed a repair. 1 know lots of men who iry to records for their swatches. | know five men in this little town have run day and night for ten years. Give a good watch to a man and he takes a pride in it. He never forgets to wind it Soon he is trying to make a record for it. The record for continuous running is held, 1 believe, by a Swiss watch in Geneva that has run for twenty-eight years.” blish esti whose watches Money and Marbles, Once there was a man who thought Russell Sage ought to stop work.
