The Seal Fishery

The islands Of st. Paul and St George,
the headquarters Of the Alaska seal fish
ery, contain respectively $40 and 10
inhabitants. The number Of seals con
gregatiug at these islands every summer
Is enormous the first OF these make
their appearance about the first Of April.
The hunting begins as soon as the rest
ing grounds are fully occupied, about the
last of June. and continues until the
middle of November, when the seals
leIve the islands TO disappear for i've
months in the vast expanse OF the Pa
cifc. The surrounding, driving, and
flensing of the poor seals have been re-
duced to a science by the natives. \ day
is selected when the wind is so that n
rookery OF resting place ON the beach
can be approached without the game
scouting the hunters; twenty or thirty
men get between the seals and the sea to
cut of their retreat, and drive toward
the interior Of the island as many as
thew have surrounded. After n while a
halt is made, and n sorting of the game
as 10 age, sex and condition is made
This requires skill and care, as the kill
ing OF females, which are easily mistaken
for Young males. would endAnger the
propagation of the species, and the
slaughtering of males under two or over
four wears old, would be useless extermi-
nation. as their fur have little value for
trade. The sorting accomplished, the
animals not destined for killing are al
lowed to escape to the rookery, and the
rest of the herd is driven to the slaugh-
tering grounds, where thirty experienced
hands will kill drove of sixteen hun
dred seal in a little more than an hour.
In driving the animals, care must
be taken that these animals do not be-
come overheated, otherwise the skins get
worthless, the fur falling off. When
killed. every part of the animal is turned
TO account by the natives skin, flesh,
blubber and intestines. The skins are
salted, the process occupying about thir-
ty days, after which they are booked up
in folds ready for shipping. The best
skins are obtained from seals three years
old. The Alaska Commercial Company,
which has lease of twenty years on all
seal-fshing privileges on st. Paul and
st. George, bind themselves not to kill
more than 100000 fur seal ON the two
islands per annum, and not to kill any
except during the months of June, July,
September and October. For its exclu-
sive privileges the Company pay the
Government an annual rental of $50, 900
also 50. IS for every seal skin taken and
shipped, and So cents for every gallon
of seal oil manufactured for sale. The
last provision amounts to nothing, as the
oil is not worth as much at st. Paul a.
the tax would come to. The Compan!
is further bound to furnish free of charge
to the inhabitants of the islands eacl
year %, 600 dried salmon, sixty cords o
firewood, and quantity of salt and bar
rels for preserving meat; also to main
tain school ON each island for the edu
cation of the natives eight months il

AFRICAN AMAzoSs.- Amazon SOL
dlers, who form the corps d'sRte of the
army OF Dahomey, are principally the
wives of the old soldiers or the favored
SUBJECTS OF the king. They are Offered
by their own sex, and allowed no license
Whatever. So strict is the law with re-
gard to chastity that death is inevitably
the penalty of dereliction. They are
served, as in the seraglios of the East, by
eunuchs, who are rewarded for the dis
coVery of any case of frailty. if the
charge be proved and the delinquent be

tnese women receive from the king one
doiiar Tor every prisoner they take, and
are az allowed to retain the plumber captured
from the enemy.

How IT is DONE.-The following incl
dent is related to show how some things
may be done, and it is said to have actu-
ally occurred in New York city - A
builder of furnaces was called upon re-
Gently to name a price for heating a large
structure in that city. He offered to put
put in his apparatus for $4,000. After
repeated conversations with sundry per-
sons interested in the contracts, he was
told that the man that secured the job
would be obliged to pay percentage to
them-in this case amounting to $1,000
the bill, of course, to be rendered in
such form as to make him party to
the fraud upon the owners of the build
ing. He told them he wanted the job,
but that as he also had a desire to go to
heaven when he died, he should be
obliged 10 decline their conditions. He
also suggested that he should like to bid
for the job with others, and was informed
that not single contract on the build
ing was given TO the lowest bidder. Then
he was politely bowed out of the pres
ence of the gentlemen who could not
use him. He went home, and as an ex.
pertinent, sent them a proposal to put
in his apparatus for $685. 900. From
this he never heard and some man with
a more convenient conscience, got tho
contract and gave the percentage.

The recent discovery of lock of hair
in the heart of tree, in Kentucky, is
thus explained In olden times, when
wizard cures for diseases were more
in vogue than at present, cure for
phthisic was prescribed as follows: Take
lock Of hair from the head of the pa
tent, especially if child, and bore a
hole in the tree, place the hair in the
hole, and plug the hole up. The SIM
ultaneous growth of the child and the
tree takes the malady from the child,
and it is supposed to be transmitted to
the tree.

A SAD STORY is told of the experience
of farmer in one of the old mountain
towns of Maine on recent night of ex-
IRENE cold. His daughter-in-law was
taken seriously sick, and he was obliged
to drive sixteen miles, in the face Of a
bitter wind, from Pm. to AM, before
he was able to procure medical assistance
for her. Two doctors we're away, two re-
fused positively to go, and he finally
reached home with one in time to see the
poor girl die. The only wonder is that
Che father did not perish also.
