How Spontaneous Combustion Takes
Place.
From the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
! The most frequent instance of spontane-
GUS combustion happens with cotton rags
or waste, that may have been more or less
saturated with oil. Few people are aware
of the ease with which these materials
originate fire. Two OR three bushels of
rags, wet with linseed oil-the drying oil
such as painters use-left in a heap,
have been known to char in the interior
within little over an hour, and then after
smoking awhile, and being placed where
there was a slight current of air, burst sud-
denly into a blaze. Painters rags are
quicker at this performance than the waste
used in oiling machinery and in painting
offices, but there is plenty of evidence that
even the heavier oils thus thinly spread in
cotton stuff will heat if in a mass, and start
fire. Bituminous coal, If wet, is about as
bad as oiled rags, though larger quantity
is required. A gas company in Brooklyn
had a fire, few years ago, in their coal
heap, thus occasioned, which lasted week;
and only the other day the burning of the
Bark Aurelie at sea, from this cause, was
chronicled in our columns, the case being of
interest on account of the many lives en-
dangered. Perhaps the most curious in
stances of spontaneous combustion were
those of the black silks stored ON the
shelves of warehouses in Paris. The facts
were well authenticated, but the evidence
rather rendered to show that the silks most
inclined to this freak had been loaded with
some substance, during manufacture, to
increase their weight.

" The Choir is Busted. a,

The New York Star says: At Decker
town last Sunday there was an exhibition
of the contrariness Of church choirs that
was both annoying and amusing Rev. Mr..
Hamilton, pastor of the Presbyterian
church Of that place, being absent OH Sum-
day, the Rev. Mr.. Soper filled his pulpit
lie was ignorant of the fact that the choir
of the church had quarreled among them
selves the night before, and that not a
member was there to sing on Sunday
morning. He gave out his hymn selected
for the opening, and read it through.
There was no musical response-no sound
of praise-from choir or congregation. AT
ter Il moments embarrassing silence, q
brother arose, and, walked up to the pull
pit, whispered in the preachers ear The
preacher nodded his head and smiled He
thought the brother had said the wrong
hymn had been read, SO he turned the
leaves again and gave out another. It was
a long one, and he read it through, closing
with "Please omit one stanza.
= Asiead silence in the congregation again.
The preacher looked uneasy, was about to
give out another hymn, when another
brother arose and spoke from the gallery:
" You see our choir is bursted. Some of
'em thought the bass sung too low, and
some of 'em thought the spranny was too
high, and others thought we ought to hev
better alto, and there wasn't many that
liked the tenor, and so the rest got mad,
and they won't be any singin' to-day"
And so the services were ended without
any singin'.''

The Emblematic Eagle.

The Etruscans were the first who adopted
the eagle as the symbol of royal power, and
bore its image as standard at the head of
their armies. From the time of Marius it
was the principal emblem Of the Roman
Republic, and the only standard of the le-
gions. 1t was represented with outspread
wings, and was usually of silver, till the
time of Adrian, who made it of gold. The
double headed eagle was in use among the
Byzantine Emperors, to indicate, it is said,
their claim to the Empire both of the East
and the West it was adopted in the Four
teenth Century by the German Emperors,
and afterward appeared on the arms of
Russia. The arms Of Prussia are distin-
guished by the black eagle, and those of
Poland bore the white. The white headed
eagle is the emblenlatic device of the
United States Of America, Ia the badge Of
the order Of the Cincinnati, and ia figured
on coins. Napoleon adopted the eagle for
the emblem Of Imperial France it was not
however, represented in heraldic style, but
In its natural form, with The thunderbolts
Of Jupiter. It was disused under the Bonr-
hons, but was restored by decree of Louis
Napoleon, January 1, 1862. Appletons'

Wonderful People.

One hundred and sixteen years old Le-
mar Griffin of Lodi, Ohio, is said to have
been born in 1859. He has voted for every
President except Washington. He had OBJ

these objections were he now refuses to say.
He has but one arm, but still reads the
newspapers dislikes to be bothered with
visitors, but consents, like sensible old
gentleman, to talk with newspaper men.
They speak of putting him to death by
taking him down to the Centennial ex-
hibitiGn. probably from an idea that he
has lived long enough. In the same county

A Mirror in the Moon.

a most remarkable discovery is reported
from the astronomical observation estab-
1ished by the Russian government several
years ago at Pamlateska, the highest point,
with one exception, on the Himalayan
range. For several months peculiar
bright spot had been discovered, shinin G
from the extreme edge ef the moons disc,
at point where no mountains break the
continuity oflts perimeter. This light sud
denly disappeared, and remained invisible
for nearly twelve months. 1t has lately re-
appeared in greater briiliancy than ever,
and the immense power of the telescope at
tached to the above observatory, SO well
/ known in the scientific world, has developed
| the fact that the light proceeds from some
huge FURNISHED substance, acting as mir
ror, which must be at least one hundred
feet in diameter. The most astonishing
thing in the matter is the almost complete
proof that this is actually q mirror of arti6.
cial construction, and the theory of the sa-
vans at Pamlateska is, that it is erected for
observations of scientific character, prin-
cipally to observe phases of the earth's
surface.
1t is well known that the immense height
Of that portion of the moon which is turned
toward the earth, not only through the well
known laws Of gravitatlon, keeps that por-
tion of her surface presented toward us, but
also renders it uninhabitable. It is sup
posed that the side turned from us may
have an atmosphere suitable for animal life,
and that intelligent beings, observing the
halo of light shed around it's horizon by re-
flections from the earth, may have taken
this means to ascertain the cause. Some
ingenious device to place mirror at
height where animal life could not be sus-
tanned was the result 1t is hoped this dis
covery may lead to others in regard to our
interesting satellite.

Dancing Going Out

Somehow London seems to have got tired
of dancing. When the Shah was there, no
remark he made was more relished than
his question to the Prince of Wales while
tho dancing was going on. Why do you
not employ servants to do this for you ?''
The perspiring Prince could hardly explain,
but society generally seems inclined to rel
egate dancing to the corps dc ballet This
has been especially the case this season
when the new fashionable skirts have gone
to All extreme from the liberation Of the
ballet. A lady was recently heard to say,
with a sigh, What with being tied around
above and tied around below, haven't had
good square sit down for three months .
When large ball is given there is IN apol !.
ogy for dancing, few mincing steps are
taken, but presently the company falls to
aemiring each others dresses, and it all
ends In music and talk. Dancing bids fair
to become survival, as the antiquarians
say.

A STATELY LADY The beautiful EN-
press of Austria passed through Paris re-
Gently, and hundreds of people gathered at
the railway station to get a glimpse of her.
She is well worth looking at, is this tairest
of royal ladies, though she is thirty-eight
years of age, and possible grandmother
besides She dresses very simply now
usually in black, gray ssor lilac-neyer hav-
ing worn gay colors since the death of hsr
eldest daughter, several years ago. Her
manners are marvellously sweet and winning
and she is popular as she is beautiful. It
is currently reported, however, that she
henpecks her Imperial spouse numerically
and that he, like wise man, submits to her
dominion. When she first arrived at the
Imperial Court she gave immense offence
to her naughty mother-in-law, the Arch
duchess Sophia, Of evil memory, by insist
ing upon going out walking, and by carry
ing an umbrella, which last is a fatal sin
against royal etiquette.
