DAVID AND GOLIATH. Night Attack of a Torpedo Boat on a Big War3hip The opportunity comes—a dark night and tempestuous. The clouds have cov ered the stare like a pall, and there is a howling wind which drowns all other sounds. The pygmy vessel makes ready and puts to sea. It rushes along as swift as the wind and as silent as a calm. Big waves sometimes sweep over it from end to end as it plunges through the dark ness, but they arc not heeded. Small as it is, it is stanchly built and can stand the strain of storm as well .is its adver sary. All men save one are snugly shut inside, tending the flying cugiue and preparing the" missile of destruction, j This is a strange bolt, shaped like a cigar, over ten feet in length; and the crew place it in the bow tube. The man on deck stands behind a little iron tower which shields him from the shock of the waves, and there he steers the boat. In the darkness they seek their ad versary determinedly, and with deadly purpose, since they are the protectors of their native land. The boat searches for a time in vain, for the big ship has cov ered all lights and is lying like a sleep-' iug monster upon the waves, awaiting morning to renew the havoc. Perhaps if the ship remained thus, the little boat would never find her; but "Uoliath''be comes uneasy; he fears "David" will make an attack, so he has determined to watch. A dazzling cone of white light suddenly starts from a point in the darkness, and broadens upon the water. Slowly it sweeps about over the sea in circling *rcs. All at once the little boat is bathed in a brilliant, blinding glare. The monster's eye finds it! But in find ing the enemy the battle ship lias dis closed itself, and the dauntless little ad versary steams straight forward at utmost speed. Streaks of fiamc arc now shoot ing from under the white light, while the rattling reports of rifles aud machine guns rise sharply above the wind's roar. Shot and small shell arc falling about like hail upon the water, but the mon ster cannot keen the rnime of the on rushing boat, and the missiles fly wide of the mark. Suddenly the great ship looms up,— tall, long, showy, overpowering. It is not far off, almost near enough to be at tacked. Yet alittle closer and the in trepid pigmy, still unharmed, slows and steadics, with that ominous black tube pointing toward the monster's blazing side. Shots are falling upon the boat, nnd the man who was steering has taken refuge in his iron tower; but inside there is a wheel, and he can steer as well as before, for around him on a level with his eyes are little slits through which he can sec. Now seconds are precious, if the fragile little craft is to escape destruction. The moment has come! A lever is pulled, and from that black tube comes a short hoarse roar. At once the little boat begins to turn, ready to escape with the speed of the wind. But before the boat can turn, a dull heavy shock has jarred the sea. A gi gantic column of whitcwatcr rushes up ward toward the black clouds. In it the tall masts of the monster ship seem to sway about and clash together. The banging of the guns is sharply succeeded by cries of human terror. The mass of water falls back Into the sea with a roaring crash and scatters over the waves in great wisps of glisten ing foam. The wind, sweeping on again forms new waves over the disturbed wa ter. The monster ship has disappeared —the Goliath of the Deep is conquered j by his pygmy antagonist.—[St. Nicholas, j A Feathered Industry. Spconk is the greatest duck-raising center on Long Island, if not in this i couutry. Byron Tuthill, of that pretty village, speaking of this feathered indus- | try, said: "For the season just ended, I have no 1 floubt that the shipment of ducks front j Spconk has reached forty thousand. All , the fowl raised there arc for the market, j The Pekin variety of ducks seems to be ; the favorite with raisers. Some Muscovy arc raised, but they do not grow so rap idly nor become so large as the Pekin, though they are, it is said, a more hardy brceu. Hardihood is a very important matter, as a great many ducks die when young from cholera, or are chilled by the cold weather. The price generally re turned from New York is from 75 cents to $1 for each duck. On this basis Spconk has received nearly SIO,OOO this year for this business alone. The raisers begin to set their eggs in incubt tors or under hens about the middle of January, and the first ducks arc ready for the New York market about the last of April. They then weigh from three to live pounds. They arc picked before shipment, and the feathers are scalded and sold at the close of the season. It is expected that the price of tho feathers will pay for tho cost of picking. Since the charge of picking is from four to five cents, it is easy to calculate what it costs to strip 40,000 ducks of their clothes. Incubators are used by all large raiseis, and, properly handled, they produce ex cellent results. The picking of the fowl is quite an industry, and many of the girls engaged in it have made from SIOO to S2OO in this way. Miss Anuie j Liscomb and Miss Hettic Homan scciu to have made the best record Each has picked about J,OOO ducks, the former having prepared forty-seven for market in one day."—[New York Star.

The Pipefish. If you want a perfect model of domes tic virtue, for example, where can you find it in higher perfection than in that exemplary and devoted father, the com mon great pipefish of the North Atlantic and tho British sea? This high-priuci plcd lophobranch is so careful of his cal low ana helpless young that he carries about the unhatched eggs with him under his own tail, in what scientific ich thyologists pleasantly describe as a sub caudal pouch or cutaneous receptacle. There they hatch out iu perfect security. free from the dangers that beset the spawn fund fry of so many other less tender-hearted kinds, and as soon asthe little pipefish are big enough to look after themselves the sac divides sponta neously down the middle and allows them to escape to shift for themselves in the broad Atlantic. Even so, however, the juniors take care always to keep tol erably near that friendly shelter, and creep back into it again on any threat of danger, exactly as baby kangaroos do into their mother's marsupim. The father fish, in fact, has gone to the trou ble and expense of developing out of his own tissue a membranous bag 011 pur pose to hold the eggs and young during the first stages of their embryonic evolu tion. This bag is formed by two folds of the skin, one of which grows out from each side of the body, the free margins being firmly glued together in the mid dle by a natural exudation while the eggs are undergoing incubation, but opening once more in the middle to let the little fish out as soon as the process of hatching is fairly finished.—[Cornhill. TO EXPLORE DEATH VALLEY. Where the Temperature is 150 in Summer and 110 in Winter. "An expedition is being organized in Washington," said President Willetts of the Board of Government Exhibits, "which, if it is as successful as wo anti cipate, will contribute in results some unique features of the Government exhib its that will excite general attention. Nothing has been said about it hereto fore, but I am now ready to announce its object, which is to make an accurate biographical survey of the famous Death Valley in southern California. This val ley is in a great measure a terra incog nita. It is true that the Wheeler survey gives us something of its topographical features, and it is true also that Captain Charles E. Bcrdiue, curator of eggs in the National Musucm, made a reconnais sance in the valley in 18G7, but the amount of accurate knowledge of the country is very small indeed. Scores of persons have penetrated it, and their dried bodies are there now,showing how fearful must be the heat. It is 150 de grees in summer and 110 in winter. Everything that dies Is shrivelled up. Nothing rots, so dry is the atmosphere. "Now, we propose to send eight or ten of the most distinguished scientists that can be found in the country on an ex ploration tour of the valley. One man, Vernon Bailey, is already working his way into the valley from Nevada, and in a few days Prof. Theodore 8. Balmer will move up from the south and join him. Other members of the expedition will be projected into the valley in a short time, when actual scientific work will be fully commenced. The expedi tion, which will occupy three months, will be one of great peril, as the heat is greater than that of any other section of this country and more intense than that of the famous desert Sahara. Mirages arc frequent, and water can only be had by digging for it. The expedition will start in with eight barrels of water. The pack animals will be mules and burros, and there is a question whether even they will be able to survive the fearful heat and the labor incident to the trip. "There arc rumois of immense depos its of gold and silver in the mountains. They may be fairy tales, but there is a tradition that once upon a time a gold hunter ran across a red-painted bucket in the valley, in which was a rich chunk of gold, and beside it a pickaxe and the shrivelled remains of a man. The hun ter returned to California with the gold and was seized upon by miners and tor tured for the purpose of getting him to tell all that lie knew. He related the story of finding a mountain of gold nnd silver, but efforts to discover their exact locality have always resulted in failure. Now, we expect to show 011 a map at the Exposition just what there is therein an imate and inanimate nature. Wc have a right to expect to find species not known to natural history."—[Chicago News. Transportation of Cattle. Mrs. Diehard P. White, of Philadel phia, president of the woman's branch of the Pennsylvania Society for the Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals, has been la boring for years to effect refdrm in the matter of the transportation of cattle, and at a recent meeting of the American Humane Association, held iu Nashville, Tenn., she contributes a paper on the subject of treatment of cattle while in transit. | She objects to the present method of , crowding from fifteen to twenty head of cattle into ono car and keeping them thus confined without food or water throughout the two or three days' trip from the West to the East. Aside from the cruelty Mrs. WhitQ contends that the cattle are not in a fit condition for con sumption after being treated thus. Her plan is to load them into compartment. or stall cars, nnd provide them at least with water during the journey. Within the past year Mrs. White raised upward of SOOO and employed an agent to look into the methods employed by the Pcnn-1 sylvania Railroad Company in the ship ment of cattle. The result was a confer ence with District Attorney Graham, and criminal prosecution in nine cases of al- ( leged cruelty to animals. These cases arc now pending. It is likely, however, | that a compromise will he agreed upon whereby the Humane Association will i withdraw prosecution, provided the rail- I road company promises to adopt its plan of transporting cattle. This is all the as sociation seeks. At present 8,000 of the compartment cars are in use west of ! Chicago, but none cast of that city.— ' [Times-Democrat. . Dutch Windmills. You scarcely can stAnd anywhere in ; Holland without seeing from one to twenty windmills. Mauy of them arc I built in the form of a two-story tower, 1 the second story being smaller than the j first, with a balcony at its base from which it tapers upward until the cap-like top is reached. High up, near the roof, the great axis juts from the wall ; aud to this are fastened two prodigious arms, formed somewhat like ladders, bearing great sheets of canvas, whose business is to catch the mischief-maker and set him at work. These rrills stand like huge giants guarding tho country. Their • bodies are generally of a dark red; and ' their heads, or roofs, are made to turn I this way and that, according to the di~ I rection of the wind. Their round ey> window is always staring. Altogether, they seem to be keeping a vigilant watch in every direction. Sometimes they stand clustered together; sometimes alone, like silent sentinels ; sometimes in long rows like ranks of soldiers. You seo them rising from the midst of factory buildings, by the cottages, on the pol ders (the nolders are lakes pumped dry and turned into farms); on the wharves; by the rivers; along the canals; on the dykes; in the cities—everywhere!

Contrast the shivering, badgered exist ence of the English beggar with the pleasant life of a Moorish member of the craft. For the ninth part of a penny, which the fractional copper coinage of his country supplies him in the shape of blanquios, one hundred and fifty to the franc, the beggar of Morocco can keep his rag of soul and body very comfortably together for the day. The sunshine alone represents meat and drink and clothes and coppers to that fortunate individual. No inexorable "peeler" bids him move on, for there is no statute in his laud to proclaim beg ging a misdemeanor. There is so much comfort in the sunshine that he docs not feel impelled to create an artificial warmth within him at the bar of the near est house of call when Charity has paused to drop a penny in his greasy hat. Nor, for that matter, has he any greasy cliapcau in hand for the reception of penn'orths of compassion from passers-by; aud let this be recorded to his credit, that to whatever depth of poverty he may by reduced, he never sinks to the indignity of cast-off clothing. Much more Saxon than Moor, in ap- . pearancc at any rate, is the red-haired | blind beggar lad who is generally to be ' seen hurrying and blundering at a reck less speed through tlie crowded streets, going nowhere in particular at a head long pace, which, if he enjoyed the use of his eyes, lie would hardly dare attempt. It has been suggested, not , without some show of probability, that I he derives his carroty locks and Saxon | face from some forefather of his ol \ English birth, who in the good piratical days may have fallen into the hands of Moorish sea-rovers, turned icnegade to save his life, and completed his do mestication by taking unto himself a Moslem woman to wife. This boy has picked up a trifie of pigeon-English and turns it to account in supplicating alms: j "Givee penny to povero blindol" If he overhears you conversing in English in the street, he fastens himself on you, lays hold of you by whatever article of attire he can clutch, and will on 110 ac count let go till you have paid a ransom for your lioerty. Then there is your holy beggar—your mendicant saint or " santo," who being alllicted with paralysis or imbecility, conceives himself therefore one of the chosen children of Allah, and levies his tax upon your piety rather than your charity. It is no matter to him that you owe no allegiance to Mahomet; on the contrary, he appears to make a particu lar merit of fleecing "Christian dogs" of their blanquios, "Santo!" says lie byway of introduction, tapping him self on the breast, "una peseta—givee me! Santo!" aud in further corrobora tion produces a string of beads and dan dles them before your eyes. There is a tiny roofed street in Tan gier which lies east aqd west, so that it admits the sun into its recesses during certain hours only when his heat is mod erate. Here, as into a harbor of refuge, drift the beggarly remnants of decayed men dicants, and coiling themselves up with in their jelabs, only leaving their feet sticking out in some chosen blot of sun shine, sleep away the memory of their woes; and if it do not offend you to staud beside oue of these sack fuls of humanity, observe narrowly the pro truding feet, and you will see the toes open and shut from time to time, like the claws of lobsters, in the excessive enjoyment of the warmth and the siesta. Suddenly, provoked at last out of all patience, one of the sleepers wakes and sits up in a fury of resentment, plunges his hand down deep iuto the folds of his ragged robe, and after a brief but deter mined resistance on the part of the flea, drags it out iu triumph and having flung it away from him, subsides agaiu into his rage and doze. Gftlvanopla3ty. We scarcely know whether the notion of keeping deceased relatives hundreds of years after tlicy have gone over to the majority will appear a pleasant one to most people; but it is stated that there is a doctor living in Paris who claims to have discovered a method of so doing, to which he gives the name of galvanopias ty. Six mouths, he has stated to an interviewer, he has been working solely on the subject of galvauoplastiijues, and in proof of what he has achieved he brought forth the body of an infant, ob tained from one of the hospitals, which was perfect in every way, the features being quite rccognizahlo, but which seemed to be made of brass. The pro cess consists, we read, first in embalming the body which is intended to be kept, after which it is placed in a bath of con centrated solution of nitrate of silver, from which, having undergone sundry other operations, it comes out the color of polished silver. Electricity is then brought into play, and a very thin layer of copper deposited on the features, which are afterwards varnished, a thor ough resemblance to the original being the aim kept steadily iu view. To copper an infant the cost, says the doctor, would be about S6O or SBO, aud for a grown person from S6OO to SBOO. lie added that, ouce coppered, if relations could afford it, nothing would be easier than to have the body silvered or gilded ac cording to taste, and in this statue-like form have their dead relatives constantly around them. The doctor says there is nothing repulsive ir. the process; but that is a matter of opinion.—[Loudon Stand ard.
