It is formed by the union of two rivulets, one of which is very strongly impregnated with iron, while the other, meandering through a at marsh, imbibes gallie acid, another ingredient in the formation of ink. Let. ters and other manuscript matters aro satisfactorily written with this singular natural compound of iron and gallic acid. Key West is a peculiar city, and dif fers very little from a West Indian town. Half of the population is composed of negroes, not the Southern variety, but negroes from the Bahamas, who speak a cockney dialect. Another quarter is composed of whites from the Bahamas, who also speak like cockneys, and are genera'ly known as “Conchs.” The re maining quarter is composed of Cubans, and the total population is nearly 20,000. Ix the city museum at Nurembarg is a vehicle thought to be the prototypa of the tricycle of the present. It was built in the early part of the seventeenth ¢ ntury by the inventor, a lame watch. maker of Altdorf, for the purpose of wheeling himself about the country. The machine was at first constructed with three wheels, but was transformed into a four-wheeled vehicle and was pro- pelled by hand-cranks, with a rotary motion, turning cog-wheels on the for- ward axle, a. Tae description of a very strange being is related in a recent issue of the Atlanta Constitution, who, when the torrid breath of summer is at its fiercest, remains clothed in woolens and experiences no inconvenience unless it be through lack of warmth: while in the most frizid winter weather he becomes heated anl oppressed as though suffering the effects of a torrid wave. According to the ac- count this peculiarity has been his form infancy, and scientific investigation has viterly failed to develope the cause of Lis strange condition. Tur superintendent of telegraphs at Rome has just issued an order forbid- ing the employment of women in the offices. The reasons for this backward step arc not given, and are unknown. There has been no complaint against the female emploves of the telegraph stations. On the contrary they have ac quitted themselves to the general satis- faction, showing great capacity and as giduity. In fact they have proved them- selves model administrators, not justify- ing a single one of the malign pre- dictions made when this innovation was adopted. It would seem that the Italian Government has by no means freed it- self of the elements of old-fogy ism. ! “Fade” and “Faddiste,™ A word that is often heard in English political talk is “fad”. It has hardly yet found its way into the dictionaries, btd “fauls” ave many, and “iaddists” and “fad- mongers” abound. Mr. Sala has sug- gested that the word is a corruption of “faddle,” to dandle—in French, doriotor. A “faddist” is corinually dandling and caressing his “fad.” It is more probably a contraction of “fidfad,” a word that has been long in use with much the same meaning as “fad.” Edward Moore, writ- ing in "Fhe World in 1754, applies the word to a very precise person — “The youngest, who thinks in her heart that her sister is no better than a slattern, rans into the contrary extreme, and is, in everything she does, an absolute fidfad.” From “fidind” in this sense to the modern “fal” and “faddist” is not a very violent transition. The jondeney to abbrevia- tion is very general. __ Home Journal, | Essaying the Knock Out Blow, “The reason why so many pugilists are breaking their arms in fights” said a local boxer, “is found in their crazy reck- lessness to get in a knock out blow. This blow is aimed at the jugular vein, and the pugilist, in attempting to accomplish this feat, often strikes too high, driving his band with terrific force against bis opponent's skull and snapping the big bone in his wrist as though it were a pipe stem. It often happens, too, that the pagilise essaying the knock out blow drives his against his opponent's elbow, whien has been thrown up asa guard, This proves almost as disastrous to the aggressor as the cranium hit, It is time that this swinging knock out blow was discarded. A straight punch from the shoulder was good enough for the old timers. It ought to be good enough now. _— fin Henry Thompson, an eminent Fnz- lish physician, says : “I kave no hesite- tion in attributing a large portion of the most painful and dangerous maladies which coms under my notice, as well us those which every medical man has to to the ordinary and daily use of ‘moderately.’ ” Ix Wasmxaros city, according to The American, there are 71 houses of prostitu- sion that are Jicsnnod to sell liquor. Be o these t are One of thet | NAPHA-KLANG, Manmer in Which Tombs Are Bullt and In. termeonts Made, i w—— [= A striking feature about Napha-Klang is the number of tombs surrounding it. These are built in the sides of the hills, and are of a horseshoe shape. They are in the form of vaults, and are constructed of solid masonry. In these vaults the dead are placed and left for seven years after which the remains are collected and Jaced in urns, Those who can not af- ford to build a tomb for the use of their own relatives combine with others, so as to have a common place of sepulture of | respectable appearance. The finest, how ever, are interred in holes cut in the sen | cliffs. After burial supplies of food and rice spirit are placed in the tomb for the | use of the deceased, which the relatives | come and consume after a decent inter { val. The combings of the hair are col | lected by the priests, and by them burnt | on certain occasions as offerings for somo | purpose or other; but the meaning of | the rite has not yet been disclosed. A Boa Flower. One of the most exquisite wonders of the sea is called the opelet, about the size of the German aster, and looking, indeed very much like one. Imagine a v.ry jarge double aster, with a great many long petals, of a light green color, glossy as sotin, and each tipped with the color of a blush rose. These lovely petals do not lie in their places quietly, however, but wave about in the water, while the white opelet clings to a rock. You have no idea how pretty and innocent it looks on its immovable bed. Would yon suspect that it would feast upon anything grosser than dew and sunbeams? Let us watch this satanic plant—for it is a devil of 8 flower—and see what it will do with those pretty, graceful arms. You will see in a moment—{for here comes a foolish little fish—do you see that little fish wriggling and sinking ?—ah, it has dis- appeared! Yes, it was struck dead by the poison in those pretty arms, which was as fatal as the rattlesnake’s bite, and in an instant a tremendous mouth opened and the victim was swallowed whole by the innocent looking opelet—a scaly thing for a flower to do, surely. Fame. Hawthorne used to wride up and down in his later years, he tells us, with plenty of people who knew him well as the ex- surveyor of the port of Salem, but who never knew that he had written any- thing, and had never heard of the “Scarlet Letter.” In Samuel Longfel- low’s memoir of his brother there is an tells how a “society woman,” at whose table he was dining one day, asked him, “Oh, Mr. Longfellow, have vou ever published a book 7" This was alter two thirds of his life work was done. The other day, a gentleman came into a bar. ber's shop just as Dr. Holmes was going out, and occupied the chair that the autocrat had vacated. “Do you know who that was that just went out?’ said the barber. The visitor was curious to see what account of Dr. Holmes the bar- ber would give and shook his head. “Why,” said the barber, “that’s old Dr. Holmes.” *“And who, pray, is Dr. Holmes 7 “Oh, he's been a doctor here a great many years. 1 believe he ain't practicin’ any more, but he's thought a great deal of.” : * A Frenchman's Maseum of Death. Among the numerous collectors of cu- riosities of every kind who abound in Paris there is one wealthy virtuose who amuses himsell by collecting deaths’ heads and skeletons fantastically carved or modeled in marble, earthenware, wood or precious stones. These he has gathered together in a kind of museum of death, which at first sight seems hideous and “macabre,” but, on closer inspection, proves highly interesting Some of the heads have been detached from those old medieval rosary beads, which were usually ornamented on one side with the profile of a king or a saint and on the other with the grinning face of a skeleton. One of the most hideous, yet at the same time most artistically ex- ecuted, of the figures is that of a skeleton engaged in taking from off his bones the “conqueror worms,” which have been claiming him as their own. The collec tor has given a Jugubrious reality to the objects in his museum by placing here and there among them the skulls of dead women, Dogs with Cat.dike Habits. Mr. Romanes, in his book on “Mental Evolution in Animals” gives some curious illustrations of modified instincts due to early association or training. A terrier pup, brought up with a kitten, be- - to bound like a cat, played with mice y letting them run for a distance and pounncing on them, licked his paws and rubbed them over his ears. Miss Mit. ford, in her Letters, records similar habits in a King Charles terrier, which belonged to no less a personage than the venerable Dr. Routh, ident of Magda- jene College, Oxford. This w been suckled and reared by a cat, havi lost its own mother. He always show the proverbial eat-like dread of wet feet, and never went out in rain; licked his paws several times in the day for the Purjoss of washing his face, sitting the while upon his tail in the true cattish position ; watched a mouse-hole for hours together ; and had, in short, all the ways, manners, and dispositions of his feline foster-mother, The Emperor of China and His Wives. The young Em of China has just been engaged in the occupation of select- ing three ladies as brides from amongst thirty-two assembled at his palace. These are eollected from all over Manchuria from certain noble Manchu families, and have travelled some of them for hun dreds and even a thousand miles to Pekin to und review.

A scheme was put into prac. tice at one time for the flooding of the country with the copper currency, but it was in vain. Later, however, the de. sired object is steadily being accomp- lished. Tir largest freight bill ever paid by one shipper is said to have been that on thirty-one car loads of granite shipped from New England to the Pacific Coast, the cost of which was ten thousand dol lars. It was to be used in the construct jon of a mechanical school in San Fran- cisco, an endowment by the public hene- factor, Dr. H. D. Cogswell, of drinking- fountain {ame in the West. Tre want of accuracy in shonting, ow- ing to the imperfect construction of the cannon in enrly times is well illustrated by the fact that in 1512 at the battle of Salamanca 3,500,000 cartridges and 6,000 eannon balls were fired, with the result of only 8,000 men being put hors de combat. And as late as 1857, during tho Katlir war, 80,000 cartridges were fired in a single engagement in which only twen- ty-five of the enemy were killed. A Nzw Yorx firm of wine merchants have in their possession two casks maids of what is thought to be the oldest an | best preserved wool in existence. This woo | was, formerly part of the founda. tion of a bridge, over the Rhine at Mainz, in the time of Trojanus, ninety-nine vears after Christ.

When mounted they are again tested for solidity of con. blade and hilt. The testing of bayonets is equally severe and exhaustive. No inferior material or de. fective workmanship escapes the cogniz- ance of the inspecting officers, who are for their knowledge of all the physical and technical details connected with the ma'erial and fabrication of steel weap- ons, Where Woman Is Queen, In Ohio, a married woman's rights are co-equal with her husband's, Whatever a man may do a wife may do also. If she owns separate real estate she can sell snd convey it without consulting her husband. If she wants to mortgage or lease her farm or house or lot she is at perfect liberty to do so. If she possesses personal property it is her own, and it will pass to her husband only by her con- sent. The law regarding man and wife has been completely revolutionized by a mere act of simplification. She can buy and sell, sue and be sued, in her own name, without any intervention of her hishand or “next friend.” Ifshe isin delt when she marries her husband is not bound to pay the indebtedness unless he chooses. The creditor must collect from the real debtor. In other worlds, the rights of man and wife are made exactly identical. Whatever right the man possesses under the marriage rela tion, the same right is possessed by the wife without modification or abridge. ment. According to the law of Ohio to- day, busband and wile are not one per son, but two separate and distinet indi- viduals as far as their independent right to acquire and dispose of personal, real and mixed property is concerned. If she calls her mnextdoor neighbor an an tiquated parellogram and no better than the hyy nose of a right-angle trian- le, her unfortunate husband is not ound to go into the court and be mule ted ten thousand dollars, more or less for slander. Some of the most compli cated and vexatious litigation which Pe ever lumbered up the dockets of the Ohio courts, enriched lawyers, and impover ished widows and orphans, will be pre- vented and herealter rendered impossible by this law. Delusions About Snakes, Much of the popular delusion concern. ing snakes is contradicted by Mr. Rheim, of the Smithsonian Institution.

All the minute articles manufactured heretofore have | veen made with small tools, and in some | cases with the aid of a micrascope, but there is a man in the Sea Beach Palace vaposition on Coney island, who works out the most delicate articles with a band saw nineteen feet long and revolv- ‘ng at the rate of over a mile a minute, L,on this immense machine the skilled operator in my presence sawed out four { chairs, all Pi on with legs and backs, | but #0 small that the four were placed on the end of a lead pencil at one time. Then a dozen knives and forks of the most diminutive size were made and placed around the lead pencil. So small | were they that although the entire dozen | were placed round the lead pencil not one of them touched the other. Then the operator trimmed his finger nails on the huge saw as cleverly and easily as ne could do it with a penknife. Wet. ting his thumb, he pressed the ball of it into some sawdust and then sawed the sawdust off the thumb without scratch. ing the skin, yet a single nervous twitch of the arm would have cost him a hand All sorts of curious puzzles are turned out with astonishing rapidity from all {sorts of misshapen blocks of wood.

The Russians are a nation of tea-drink- ers: coffee is rare; tea is universal, and universally good. The best tea 1 ever drank was in Russia; they drink it at all hours, and without regard to quantity sometimes ten cups at a sitting. and yet, apparently, with impunity, Hrass urns, in which tea-water is boiled by means of a charcoal fire, are found over all the Empire. They are called samovars, and 1 found it important to include in my Russian vocabulary the word “samovar.” Their method of mak- ing and drinking tea has been noticed by all travelers in their country. They claim that water at the boiling point is destructive to the good qualities of tea, so they draw their tea with water just below that poiot. They use thin glass tumblers, with ordinary saucers; sometimes the women use cups, but the men never; the tea is poured into the saucers, which are held on the upturned ends of the thumb and fingers of the right hand; milk and cream are rarely used ; a block of cut sugar is held in the left hand, from which they nibble pieces, as they slowly sip their delicious, wine- colored tea.
