ABOUT BRUSHES.
Facte All not ThHr SlnnofnrtnT Vbcre the
II rial Ira Dome From.
Bmslifs nro among the more common
articles iu (nuntnnt uhp, and like a grout
ninnv oilier nrtielps that are universally
frtii) ioyod tlicro aro many intoroHting
facts concerning thorn andtlieir nianu
fuolure. Tho varieties and kind of
brashes are so great that it would bo im
jwssiMo to give all due consideration
within the limits of a newspaper article,
but a few facts concerning ordinary
bristle brushes may interest tho average
reader.
It mny seem somewhat eingnlar that
it should bo necessary to import any
article or material entered into the con
traction of ordinary brashes, and yet it
i said that there are millions of pounds
of pigs' bristles imported into this conn
try every year. America is considered
a great country for the pig. "We export
pork in immense qualities, so why do
we have to import bristles I The reason
is simply that tho bristles on the back
of an American pig are not sufliciently
stiff, and are of no value except in the
very cheapest grades of brashes. In
this country the pig is bred for pork,
and it is usually slaughtered when one
year old, and hence the bristles do not
nave the opportunity to become very
stiff and hard. Tlie best and most
valuable of all bristles are those which
come from Kussia. In all that country
tho hogs run wild, frequently reaching
tho avo of eight or ten years. They
are hunted and shot down, and thou
sands of pounds of bristles from their
backs are exported to America, where
they are worth about 5 per pmind. In
Poland nearly or quite as good bristles
are obtained. In both countries the
hogs feed upon bark and roots, are lank
and lean, and valuable only for their
bristles. Large quantities of bristles
are imported from Germany, which,
though not quite bo heavy or stiff as
those first mentioned, are much superior
to American bristles, being worth 3
per pound. Bristles are also imported
from France, being of a finer texture,
more suitable for fine varnish brushes,
and worth $1.50 per pound." American
bristles are worth all the way from thirty
five cents to ?2 per pound, but, as stated
befoie, aro used only in the cheaper
grades of brashes. It is stated on good
authority that until within the last five
years all tooth brushes were imported
from England or France, but that within
that time their manufacture has begun
in this country, and that now the home
manufacturers can compete with their
foreign brothers. Another article used
in the manufacture of brushes is tam
peco, a sort of wild grass that grows in
Mexico. When this is colored it is
difficult to discern it from hair. It is
imported in large quantities from that
country, and is worth twelve cents per
pound. Horsehair also is largely used
in making- brushes. It is sometimes
mixed with bristles, and sometimes used
by itself. Strange to say, it is impossi
ble to obtain a sufficient supply in this
country, and large quantities are im
ported from South America, where it is
obtained from the inanes and tails of
wild horses. It is worth fifty cent3 per
pound. Kice root from Brussels is
another material that enters into tho
construction of some kinds of brashes,
and considerable quantities are im
ported. .
The manufacture of brushes is not
particularly interesting in its various
operations, though some branches of it
require considerable skill and ingenuity.
The material into which the bristles are
set usually comes to the brush manu
facturer partially ready for uso, but
considerable labor is required to put
the goods in condition for the market,
even after tho bristles are set. The first
process ia to sort the bristles by taking
a handful and passing them through a
"'row of upright steel points, like the
teeth of a comb. There are about as
many methods of making brashes as
there are kinds of brushes. In paint
brushes the bristles are aiTanged around
trw small end of a conical stick and se
cured by twino wrapping. A great
mauy brashes are made by inserting
tufts of bristle into holes bored in rows.
Oftentimes they are secured by dipping
the root ends into hot pitch, winding a
piece of string around these ends, then
dipping them again, and quickly and
dexterously introducing them with a
twisting motion into th. holes, where the
pitch sets and holds them. Many bnibhes,
notably hair brushes, are madoby driv
ing he bristles through holes and
fastening them with wire. A skillful
person is known to have drawn five
hundred tufts in an hour, but one hun
dred in an hour is considered good
wofk. An ingenious machine has been
invented for making flat brushes, which
, fills from sixty to eighty holes per hour.
Much of the work with bristles is per-
, formed by girls and women, many of
whom become quite dexterous in the
; business. The delicate brushes, called
, uIho hair pencils, used for water colors,
. are made of hair of the camel, goat.
oauger, sauie, squirrel ana other am
Dials, by binding a bundle of them to
gether, after being carefully arranged
ana their points temporarily protected.
: and sliding this through the large end
of a quill till the points project 6ufli-
ciently tar through tho smaller end.
Tho tube having been previously soft
ened by Mater, contracts as it dries and
holds the bundle of hairs fast. The
best brushes of this kind are made of
hair taken from the tail of a species of
llussian sable. Boston Herald.
The rajah of Rampoor appeared at
Queen Victoria's recent levee in a curi

we term civilization, his body was draped
in rich cashmere shawling, which hung
about his shoulders in graceful festoons,
while at the 6ame time it formed a sort
of Highland jacket, fastened down the
cheht with gold buttons.

He Didn't " Bunko."
The bunko men who sat down in De
troit six weeks ago to make their pile
have had a hard time of it, and must bo
about ready to leave. Fact is, the gnme
is too old to work on our citizens, and
strangers who reach hero are generally
pretty well posted on all sorts of games
to deceive. Tho other day there was a
dreadfully innoCent-looking fanner
doing a little trading at a Woodward
avenue harness store, when one of the
bunko steerers got after him for a sheep
head. After following the stranger long
enough to learn his name and place of
residence, he suddenlj confronted him
on the corner with:
"Hello! Mister Smith I Well,
well r
" You've got the start of me," said the
old man as he looked bunko over.
" But I know you. You livj just out
side the corporation limits of Blank
ville, and have got one of the best farms
in tho county."
." Yes, that's so, and who be you ?"
"I am a brother of the postmaster."
" Is that so?"
"Yes, and I've seen you in the post
office a hundred times, now are all the
folks r
"All well, I believe."
The farmer not only knew what bunko
was, but his son .was postmaster at
Blankville. Nevertheless he asked:
" Seen your brother lately V"
" Not for three months, but I'm com
ing up there next week."
"Sure vou've seen my farm, are
you V"
"Sure? Say, didn't you miss some
carlv pears one night last fall?"
"Yes."
" Well, I ha ! ha ! I'm a great lover
of early pears, and I was there about
that time."
" Say, I'd like to speak to you," said
the farmer as he looked up and down
the street.
" Certainly. Then we'll have a glass
of beer together and I'll show you
around town."
The two walked up Congress street to
Bates, and half-way down Bates to
Lamed, and then the farmer reached
for the collar of the bunko chap and
said:
".When I found them pears gone I
swore I d lick the thief if I had to live
a hundred years to do it !"
"Butl-I 1"
"Stole my pears, did you robbed
my pet trees, eh !" growled the farmer
as he slammed the young man around.
"No! no! never !"
"Lying won't help you a bit!" mut
tered the old man, and he put on 6team
and cracked the boy's heels together,
slammed him against a brick wall and
flung him on a snow-heap with only
breath enough left in his body to agitate
a feather, while his store clothes were a
sad sight to see.
" He stole my airly pears last fall,"
explained the old man as several persons
came running up, " and if I hadn't got
the worth of 'em back I'll have to wait
till some other time. He'll come to
directly, and if he feels like talkin' he'll
give you all the little particulars !"
But when bunko was helped to his
feet he wouldn't say a word, and was in
such a hurry to get somewhere that he
wouldn't stop to dig the snow out of his
back hair. Detroit Free Press.
The Loons.
As the small stock of fresh meat we
had brought with us from Troniso was
diminishing in a most alarming manner,
it was decided to put into a harbor,
called Nameless Bay, in order to re
plenish our provisions. This bay was
reputed to be a famous place for
"loons, asBrunmchs guillemots are
invariably called, and well did it de
serve the reputation it had acquired, for
it was one vast loonery, teeming with
birds. The bay was bounded on the
three sides by high hills, terminating at
the water in abrupt, precipitous cliffs,
about 100 feet in height. Frost and the
action of the weather had formed nar
row ledges on the laces ol these lime
stone cliffs, rising in regular stratifica
tions, tier over tier, from base to summit.
These ledges were the looneries, and
on them were congregated myriads of
birds. So thickly were they clustered
together that the combination of their
black and white plumage made the face
of the cliffs assume a " pepper and sa.t"
hue. Some idea may be gathered ol
the countless numbers of these birds
by the fact that my companion and my.
self in less than two hours bagged (500,
aud, had we required it, many hundreds
more could have been obtained in tho
same space of time. On the first dis
charge of our guns a perfect cloud rose
in front of us, completely obscuring the
face of the cliff. The noise produced
by the tremendous whirring and flapping
of wings can only be compared to that
made by the fall of water from a large
cascade. As they flew seaward they
struck us in the boats, while the killed
and wounded fell upon us like hail. The
incessant flight of these birds in differ
ent directions, uunng the days we re
mained at anchor in the bay, reminded
me more of the swarming of hundreds
of hives of bees than anything else: so
continuous were their flights that we
used to hnd it almost impossible to
sweep the land carefully with a telescope
for game, in consequence of the rapid
passage of these birds across the fluids
of our glasses. The loons build their
nests on the ledges of the cliffs, where
their eggs, of which there f only one
i i each nest, are perfectly secure from
the depredations of all thieves but
the skuas and the Glaucus gullp.
ihese latter birds breed on the summits
of the cliffs, immediately over the
looneries, which they watch with
jealous and greedy eye. The male and
female loon alternately guards the
precious egg. and woe betide the un
fortunate guillemot who should be
tempted away, by food or otherwise,
from his sacred treasure. The watchful
skua or burgomaster quickly swoops
down, and on the return of the loon its
nest is empty. We were, unfortunately,
a few days too early to obtain any of
the eggs for our breakfast-table, but we
reveled for some time in such delicacies
as "j loon soup," " stewed loon," "cur
ried loon," and other ingenious methods
of ) cooking those birds. CtijituiH

An association of the shipowners and
shipmasters of Maine, with five hundred
Bubstontial members, lias been organized
in Augusta. They believe that tho
great prosperity of tho country at large
is about to make itself felt in tho ship
yards of Maine, and their purpose is to
aid in the revival of the great industries
for which the State was long famous.
The organization, which represents
ninny million dollars, was perfected by
tho election of permanent officers who
have enough to stake to secure their
best services.
An articlo in a California newspaper
gives somo interesting information in
regard to the present condition and
prosp cts of the kingdom of King
Ka'nkaua the Sandwich Islands. The
native race it appears is dying out,
the terrible disease of leprosy being on
the increase. Since tho reciprocity
treaty with tho United States woit into
effect tho labor conditions of the count ry
have been greatly impioved, the chief
beneficiaries being the Chinese, who
raise the greater portion of the sugar
crop and who are in a male numerica
majority on the islands. The elective
franchise is open to all, but thus far tho
Chinese portion of the population mani
fest no desire to avail themselves of tho
privileges of Hawaiian citizenship. Tho
future of the islands ia an extremely in
teresting question. If the forces nt
present in operation are allowed to work
unchecked the Mongolians will iu a few
years have complete control, and Hono
lulu will become a small Hong Kong.
How and to what extent such a condition
of affairs may affect American interests
is a question which the future alone can
determine.
Apropos of an article in its colum ns
the Christian Union says: It is worthy
of note that the coffee-houses estab
lished in the chief English cities as a
means, of keeping men away from liquor
shops have proved a decided success,
many of them paying an annual divi
dend of ten per cent, upon their capital.
They supply coffee, tea, cocoa, soups,
cold meat and bread and but ter of good
quality and at low prices. Newspapers
are kept in abundance, and customers
are welcome to remain and read as long
as they please. Thus the coffee-house
serves the purpose of a cheap club.
Similar experiments have proved
successful in Boston, Troy, St. Louis,
and other points in this country. It is a
matter for profound astonishment that
the organized workers against intem
perance have paid so little attention to
the palpable facts that drinking is partly
due to the fact that men aro thirsty,
partly to the desire for social good
fellowship, and neither thirst nor
fellowship is adequately provided for in
any of our great towns and cities except
by the liquor-shops.
In 1S80 there were in tho United
States no less than 170 boiler explo
sions, which killed 259 persons and
wounded 555. It is remarkable that,
while the number ol explosions per
month varies slightly, and is rather
larger in winter mouths, the number of
resultant casualties was decidedly largest
in June. Probably that was due to
the exceptional character of that month's
disasters; but it is onry fair to expect
that violent deaths will increase regu
larly with the return of each excursion
season. A classification of the boilers
shows that forty-seven were nsed in
wood-working mills. Presumably wood
was used for fuel under such boilers,
and the much less equable temperature
produced by tho burning of wood as
compared with coal would go far to ex
plain tho undesirable pre-eminence.
lhe next most numerous class of explo
ded Doners numoerea . nineteen, and
were used in paper, flouring, pulp and
grist mills and elevators. Eighteen
exploded boilers were the motors of lo
comotives and fire-engines, fifteen
were marine boilers, thirteen were
" portables," being used in hoisters,
thrashers, pile-drivers, cotton gins, etc.,
and thirteen were used in iron works.
As compared with 1870 there is a huge
increase in these figures. In . 1870
there were but 132 explosions, which
killed 208 persons and wounded 2:10.
This fact is traced to the reviv al of
trade, which demanded the new use of
idle boilers, and in many cases the over
working of others.
Tlie Sargasso Sea.
This is the name given to a portion of
the Atlantic ocean covered with the sea
weed, sargassum. Its boundaries may
be indicated by tracing a triangle, of
which three corners are represented by
the Azores, the Canaries and Cape de
Verd. Within those limits the sea is
clothed on its surface with a garment of
vegetable material, so thick as to retard
the progress of vessels sailing through
it. Steamers avoid it because of tho
fouling of their screws and paddles by the
weed; but sailing vessels bound to the
West Indies, South America, the Cape of
Good Hope, etc., must pass through it.
When Columbus, on his first voy
age, had got some distance to the west
ward of the Canary Islands, he was
amazed to find his ships in what looked
like a meadow. As far as he could see,
the water was covered with a greenish
yellow plant, as water lilies cover a
pond. This was the first time such a
thing had been seen and the sailors
were scared, Columbus could not ex
plain the sight he saw, and might have
thought with his men, that the weed
was the covoring of 6ome dangerous
rock which lay a short distance down,
ready to tear and rend them. The lead
was hove but no bottom was found. The
ships kept on their course, and in a few
days they got clear of the weed.

Saved by a Water Buffalo.
The water buffalo is an animal much in
use in Hingaporo for purpose of draught.
It is a dull, heavy-looking animal, slow
at work nhd disgusting in appearance,
but remarkable for sagacity and attach
ment to its native keepers. It has,
however, a particular antipathy to a
European, and will immediately detect
him in a crowd. Its dislike to and
courage in attacking a tiger is well
known all over India. Not long ago,
as a Malayan boy, who was employed by
his parents in herding water buffaloes,
was driving his charge by the borders
of tho jungle, a tiger made, a sudden
spring and seized the lad by the thigh,
and was dragging him off, when the two
old buffaloes, hearing the shriek of dis
tress from the well-known voice of their
little attendant, turned around and
charged with their usual rapidity. Tho
tiger, thus closely pressed, was obliged
to drop his prey to defend himself.
While one buffalo successfully drove
away the tiger the other kept guard
over the boy. Later in the evening,
when tho anxious father, alarmed, came
out with attendants to seek his child, ho
found that the whole herd with the ex
ception of the two old buffaloes had
dispersed themselves to feed, but that
they were still there one standing over
the bleeding body of their little friend,
while tho other kept watch on tho edge
of the jungle for tho return of the tiger.

Certaiuly a strong opinion, said one
of our reporters to whom tho following
was detailed by Mr. Henry Kaschop,
with Mr. George E. Miller, 418 Main
street, this city: I suffered so badly
with rheumatism in my leg last winter
that I was unablo to attend to my work,
being completely helpless. I heard ol
St. Jacobs Oil and bought a bottle, after
using which I felt greatly relieved.
With the use of the second bottle I
was completely cured. In my estima
tion there is nothing on earth so good
for rheumatism as St. Jacobs Oil. It
acts lik3 a charm.
The restaurants have had such a run
of custom that some of the waiters aro
a little inattentive. A stranger called
for a plate of oysters, and after smelling
them, he said: " Waiter, are these oys

intelligence office." " I would like to
know if they are fresh." " Well, then,
eat them, then you will know for your
self. You don't expect me to eat them
for you, do you ? Do I look like I was
here to try old oysters on?" Galveston
