    ' HORRORS OF THE ARCTIC.
Terrible Experience of the Crew of the
III Fated Jeannette.
When Ross In 1SKS tombed Ht Etnli
the Esks thought tlie.v were being vis
ited by ghosts. With tier white mills
appearing on the horizon, where l he
sky melts Into un ubyss ot oreuu.
what else could the ship be but mime
great white winged ghost, and wlmt
those strauge creatures on ber decks
but lost souls? They thought she. a
great bird. hadBown from the moon. .
where wood was abundant, and when
they saw her close, her wooden belly
and her masts, they whispered, "Ilow 1
much wood there Is In the moon-how j
very much!" Wood Is like gold to the
Esks.
One of the unhappy crew of the
Jeannette writes: "1 put some mercury
to freeze and beat It out ou the auvll.
Our frozen brandy looked like black
topaz. We divided meat, oil and bread
with a hatchet. Joshua forgot to put
on his right glove; In a moment his
hand was frozen. The poor devil wish
ed to thuw bis lifeless hand In warm
water. It was Immediately covered
with pieces of lee. The doctor was
forced to cut the unlucky mate's bund
off, and he died next day. Toward the
middle of January a enrnvan of Esks
came to ask us for some dried tlsh and
brandy. We ndded a little tobacco to
these presents, which they received
with tears of Joy. The chtef. a feeble
old man, told us that the week before
be had eaten his wife and two sous."
Cold more terrlWe than the white
wolf and bear seizes its victims un
awares. Instantaneously, fatally. The
cold purines the blood, sharpeus appe
tite, favors digestion and stomach, it
soothes to sleep by bringing death In
the midst of beautiful dreams. This i
Intense cold, so dry, so pure, stops pu
trefaction, sweetens the air by greatly
Increasing Its density and purifies wa
ter. Cold takes the place of cooking,
for It makes raw meat, raw Bsh and
tallow eatable.
A Roman nosed people could not
hold their own In the arctic. A Roman
nose would be too often frozen off.
The Esk flat nose Is less exposed. The
name Eskimo, or raw food eaters, Is a
nickname given by the Labrador In
dians. Their true inline in their own
tongue Is Inolt and menus "man." If
patriotism be a virtue the Ksks have It
surpassingly. Never was a land of
verdant groves, golden hnrvests and
willows mirrored In the streamlets and
silvery waves better beloved than their
' snow fields and Ice hills and gloomy,
stinking tents and Igloos. New York

. THE CENTURY PLANT.
It Blooms, Says a Florist, Every Twenty-five
to Forty Years.
"The regular century plant," said nn
expert In floriculture, "Is uotn cactus.
It belongs to a family by Itself, it has
a large, broad leaf, sometimes two or
three feet long and several Inches
thick where they branch from the cen
ter. There are two varieties, one1 the
variegated and the other green. The
only difference Is that the variegated
has a white stripe along the outer edge
of the leaf. Both bloom every twenty
five to forty years.- A stock perhaps
eight or ten inches In diameter shoots
np from the center to a height of fif
teen or twenty feet, and around this
stock cluster small blossoms. They are
neither pretty nor fragrant Tbey were
formerly supposed to bloom once In a
hundred years.
'The nearest thing to a century
plant Is a night blooming cereus. It is
a cactus and blooms once in about
every twenty-Ove years or so. The
flower is large, very beautiful and has
a delightful odor. One plant may have
several blossoms, but each flower lasts
only one night,
"There Is no such plant as a 'century
cactus.' The cactuses that many have
mistaken for 'century cactuses' will
bloom in four -or Hve years If kept un
der glass or about seven years if not
In a hothouse. Because tbey are so
long in blooming, 1 suppose, tbey have
been called 'century cactuses,' and the
name has been banded down until It Is
considered, the proper term for them.
They bloom yearly after the first blos
' soms appear. Tbey are Just an ordi
nary cactus, but tbey have a pretty,
fragrant flower." Seattle Times.
The Canny Scot.
In the differences that would some
times arise between members of his
tenantry the Duke of Argyll was often
Invited to arbitrate upon the matter in
dispute, and he used to tell a charac
teristically Scottish story of one of the
occasions. Two tenants having waited
upon him and asked blm to decide the
question at issue, the duke put what be
. always regarded as a very necessary
preliminary question, "Will you abide
by my award?"
"Well your grace," was the reply of
one of the bard beaded old disputants,
-I'd like to ken first what It is." Lon

The Other Way With Him.
. "Remember, sir, that you owe some
thing to your constituents," said one
member 6f a town council to another.
' "Humph!" said the otber. "If you
we anything to your constituents all
I've got to say Is that you're lucky.

DIPLOMACY. j
A Vagua Threat That Meant Nothing,
but Brought Quick Results.
The lute Lord Salisbury moiiih years
ago seut a foreign ollice emissary to
make some demands of a Smith Amer
ican republic. Hefore selling out ou
bis mission the emissary, to whom his
lordship hud explained the exact na
ture of the demands, desired to be In
formed as to the course to take If.
after he had said everything, there was
a refusal.
"Oh." answered Lord Salisbury, "this
is not a matter In which we have the
least thought of lighting: If the pres
ident refuses, why. you will simply
have to come home agalu."
The emissary went and had his say
to the presldeut of the republic, who
blankly refused to 'give In. and the
diplomat retired to think things over.
A few hourB Inter he wrote to the pres
ident: "1 regret that your excellency does
not see your way to recognize the just
ness of the claims which 1 have had
the honor to presenf. I have now to
say, on behalf of her Britannic majes
ty's government, that unless your ex
cellency yields on nil points which I
have mimed It will be my painful duty
to act on the second half of myjn
Btructlons." Under this vague and significant
threat the president yielded at once.

HAUNTED ALASKAN ISLAND.
Ghosts of Russian Exiles Who Died of
Starvation or Torture.
To the south and west of Kodiak.
distant about 100 miles and forming
one of the Semidl group, is the Islund
of Chlrikof, the haunted Island of
Alaska.
Enshrouded for a great portion of
the time with almost impenetrable fog.
this lonely isle Is au object of terror to
the natives, who claim It is haunted
by the ghosts of Russian exiles.
The natives will not go near the Is
land, saying It means certain death to
Invade the canny confines, and there
are few men In the fnr north who have
the temerity to test the truth of the
many and weird tales told of this for
bidding and barren Island.
Shipmasters and sailors passing the
place assert that the agonizing cries of
Ilusslan exiles sent there to starve or
die by torture are sometimes henrd
on quiet nights, while the clink of,
chains and the sound of blows are tes
tified to In an affidavit by a white man
who once attempted to remain there
for a week and who nearly lost his
reason. Tanana Tribune.
The Noise Habit.
A personnl experience first showed
the writer the possibility of a state of
n (Tn Irs where the habit of noise could
become as fixed' as the habit of a drug.
Waking one night In the quiet of a
country house far from other habita
tions, I suddenly heard the starting of
the hot air engine which pumped the
water chug, chug, chug, chug. I lay
listening to Its monotonous vibrations
and wondering at the unusual hour
for pumping until I fell asleep. The
next night the sound was repeated.
On mentioning the matter to my host
he confessedthat he could not sleep In
the quiet of the country; that the sud
den change from the roar of n great
city to the silence of the woods was so
great as to cause him real suffering.
As bis only way to rest be would leave
the bouse tn the middle of the night,
start up the pump and, lying down In
a nearby hammock, find sleep brought
him by the lullaby of the hot air en
gine. That man recognized that be had
the noise habit and finally conquered
it.-Hollls Godfrey In Atlantic.
Oddly Named.
A Mr. Hudson, who had made a
large fortune as a dentist, bad built a
Very expensive country bouse near
Dublin, but of such an extraordinary
construction as to bid defiance to the
criticism of the architect.
One day after dinner at Curran's this
singular mansion became a subject of
merriment for his guests. The question
for their satirical Inquiry was, "What
was Its order of architecture?" One
said it certainly was Grecian, another
contended It was Saxon and a third
that It was oriental, when their host
thus Interposed:
"Excuse me, gentlemen, you are nil
wrong. It is Tusk-un. From the ir
regularities of the mansion and from
Its proprietor being a dentist the Irish
call It Snaggletooth nail."1 London An
swers. )
Not Worth a Rush.
"Not worth a rush" Is, as a popular
saying, the predecessor of the now
more common simile "not worth a
straw." In precarpet days it was the
custom to strew the floors of dwelling
houses. "When guests of rank were en
tertained fresh rushes were spread for
them, but folk of lower degree bad to
be content with rushes that had al
ready been used, while still humbler
persons bad none, as not even being
"worth a rush." London Standard.

PLAYED WITH A LION.
A South African Child Who Ran to I
Meet the Big "Doggio."
The infant sou of one uf the Dutch
settlers iu South Africa hud strayed
away.- After some lime ti search par
ty illm-iivi-i'cil Utile l'uotiii'iiits leadiuu
In the directum of the bush. Follow- j
lug up these, the search purty came
upou a largo open space, at the far
ther side of which they discovered the '
object of their search sitting hugging
a little wooden doll and munching a
piece of bread and butter. Before
they could make their way through
the thick, tangled undergrowth a large
Hon sprang Into the clearing. The lit
tle boy, far from being frightened, ran
to meet the lion, holding up his bread
and butter and said. "Take a bite,
doggie."
The father stood powerless to move
or speak through fear, expecting each
Instant to see the child crushed under
the lion's paw, but Instead of doing
as he dreaded the Hon turned himself
over and lay on his back at the child's
feet, looking up In his face as a cat
would do at piny. Watching his op
portunity, the father rnlsed his gun
and fired, hiding the lion in the leg.
The animal sprang up and, leaving the
child, rushed on the party, Injuring
two of the number before it was final
ly killed. From this circumstance the
child was Immediately christened by
the settlers "Daniel." London Family

WAITED FOR HEALY.
An Incident of the Land League Agi
tation In Ireland.
One morning during the Land league
agitation Mr. I'arueir left Dublin by
the early mail train for Roscommon
to address tt meeting. Qu arriving In
the town he received a telegram from
Dublin which ran:
Missed mall train. Will get down at 8
o'clock. Postpone meeting till I arrive.
HEALY.
Mr. Taruell was pleased to learn that
T. M. Ilealy, M. P., was comlug down.
Delighted, too, were the local promo
ters of the demonstration, and the meet
ing was gladly postponed for a few
hours.
At 3 o'clock the railway station and
Its approaches were thronged with
people with bnnds and banners, and
the train from Dublin steamed in
amid terrific cheerlngTor Tlin Henly.
The train pulled up, a carriage door
opened, and the local reception com
mittee rushed to it, when out stepped
'Healy," but it was uot T. M. Uenly.
M. P. It was W. Wallace Uealy, a
well known reporter on the stuff of
the Irish Times. ,
. He had been assigned to the Hoscom
mou meeting, had missed the mall

his paper should have a report of Mr.
Paruell's speech; hence the telegram.

What Yeomen Were.
Yeomen were formerly considered to
be by their title on a level with 'es
quires, and they were called yeomen
because. In addition to tbe weapons
proper for close engagements, they
fought In the wars with arrows and u
bow which was made of yew; hence
the word. After the conquest the
nnme of yeoman, In reference to the
original office hi war. was changed to
that of archer. The term, however,
waB coutluued with additions the yeo
man of the crown, of the chamber,
yeoman usher, etc. aud we find that
considerable grants were bestowed on
somo of tbem. in tbe legal view a
yeoman is defined to be one that bas
fee land of tbe value of 40 shillings a
year and Is thereby qualified to serve
on Juries, to vote for knights of the
shire and to do any other act which
the law may require. The yeomen al
ways took a leading part in whatever
concerned the regulations or Interests
of the kingdom, and their renown as
warriors Is fully established by their
numerous heroic achievements. Lon

Insects and Flowers.
Experiments on Bhowy flowers like
the poppy tend to show that Insects
are not nhvays attracted to flowers by
the brightly colored petals, but rather
by the perception doubtless by means
of smell that there Is honey or pollen.
In these experiments tbe unopened
flower bud is Inclosed In a gauze net
so as to protect it from lnsepts, and
when it expands tbe petals are care
fully removed without touching the re
maining parts with the fingers (for
bees avoid a flower if the smell of hu
man fingers Is left on It), and the petal
less flowers receive practically as
many insect visits as untouched flow
ers do.

TOWER OF BABEL
Traditions as to the Height of the Fa
mous Structure.
The actual height at which the last
stone of that famous structure, the
tower of Babel, rested cannot, on ac
count of the remoteness of the times
at which It is said to have existed,
ever become more thnn a matter of
merest conjecture. Herodotus, who
'lived about 1.700 years after that
"great spiral way to heaven" Is said
to have been attempted, says that he
Raw at Babylon a structure consisting
of eight towers raised one above an
other, eacb seventy-five feet In height,
but whether this ruin was the re
mains of the tower of Babel It was
even then Impossible to ascertain. He
rodotus, usually minutely exact In his
writlnc. leaves us In Ignorance as to
how the upper level of eacb of these
seventy-five foot towers was reacnen
from the level below.
As might be expected, even In tra
dition, a wide difference of opinion ex
lata as tn the helcht of the tower. Most
orientalists maintain that God did not
put a stop to tbe work until tbe tower
bad reached a height of 10.000 fatb-
nma nr nhnnt twelve miles. In Ley
lonese tradition It Is snld to have been
as high as 20.000 elephants,' each
rnnrllnrr one above tbe Other. Vol
Jerome asserts on the authority of
persons who had examined tbe ruins
that It did not reach a beignt exceea
Ing four miles. Otber statements are

THE KING'S ORDER.
It Was Obeyed, and Yet the Monarch
Waa Not Happy.
When King Gustavus III. of Sweden
was In Paris he was ylslted by a depu
tation of tbe Sor boll ne. That leurned
body congratulated tbe king on the
happy fortune which bad given him so
great a man as Scheele, the discoverer
of magnesium, as his subject and fel
low countryman.
Tbe king, who took small luterest in
the progress of science, felt somewhat
ashamed that he should be so Ignorant
as never even to have beard of tbe re
nowned chemist He dispatched a cou
rier at once to Sweden with the laconic
order, "Scheele is to be Immediately
raised to the dignity and title of a
count"
'His majesty must be obeyed." said
the prime minister as be read the or
der, "but who in the world is Scheele?"
A secretary was told to make Inquiries.
He came back to the premier with
very full Information. "Scheele Is a
good sort of fellow," said he, "a lieu
tenant In the artillery, a capital shot
and a first rate hand at billiards.
Tbe next day the lieutenant became a
count, and the Illustrious scholar and
scientist remained n simple burgher.
The error was not discovered until
the king returned home, nis majesty
was Indignant. "You must all bo
fools." he exclaimed, "not to know
who Scheele Is!" Argonaut.
THE CRISIS.
A Loving Mother Guides Her Girl at
the Fateful Moment.
"Your whole future life depends
upon It."
The mother, her face tinged with
sympnthy which we must ever feel in
the presence of an Immaturity that Is
hesitating between right and wrong,
laid her bnnd over that of her beauti
ful daughter.
"Yes, dear." she continued, "Into
every life there comes at one time of
another a supreme temptation. If the
crisis is passed ail is safe, but if you
yield at the fatal moment you cannot
retrace your steps. Vou are then com
mitted to a fatal policy."
"But, mother, father says he cannot
afford It."
"Exactly. .Fathers from time Im
memorial have always said that. It
Is their way of Imposing on youth and
innocence. Go forth at once and buy
the gown. Do not forget that I am
with you, that I will stand bnck of
you with all the feeble strength I can

A Stage Manager's Ruse.
The house bill of the Imperial the
ater of La Uoche-snr-Yon announced
for the evening performance "La Tour
de Nesle." a five act melodrama, and
"La Soeur de Jocrisse," a one act farce.
Tbe drama bad been disposed of, but
tbe low 'comedian was missing and
could not be found. What was to be
done? A luminous idea finally entered
the manager's mind. The orchestra
played an overture, -,then another,
then a third, tben a polka and finally
a quadrille. At last when the audi
ence bad grown quite obstreperous,
tbe stage manager appeared. He ad
dressed the three conventional bows to
the spectators and said: "Ladies and
gentlemen, you are anxious, I know, to
listen to 'Lu Soeur de Jocrisse.' The
piece bas Just been acted, but through
an unaccountable oversight on the part
of tbe stage hands tbey forgot to raise
the curtain."
Saw It In a Dream.

time avoiding waste. Among those
who strove to perfect such a machine
was Mr. John Carter of tbe firm of
John Carter & Son. well known ivory
manufacturers.' One night, after Mr.
Carter had been striving to solve the
problem for some time, he suddenly
awoke his wife by shouting out. "1
have got it." and rushed downstairs
into his study, where he made a draw
ing of the last knife for the want of
which he had been so long waiting in
order to complete his machine. It ap
pears that he bad fallen asleep and
dreamed about the machine, and in the
dream tbe solution of the difficulty
was revealed to him. tmtVm 'ix
