A Texan Abroad.

A Texas gentleman named Gressel
mann stopped last night at Spruce
street hotel, and before morning made
himself the most interesting guest in
the establishment. The waiter, who
lighted him to bed asked him if he knew
how to turn off the gas, and he said he
guessed he knew what he was about. A
couple of hours later the odor of gas
pervaded the entire house, and was
traced to his room. A call was made,
but he told the waiter to 60 away or
there would be trouble. It became ap-
parent the guest had blown out his gas
light, and frequent and more vigorous
calls were made. The guest held the
fort, however, and, despite the warn
ings that he would be smothered to
death and would blow up the house,
declined to open the door, and told ap-
plicants to retire. Finally he began
shooting at the door, and for about ten
minutes kept up fusilade, firing four
teen bullets in all, many of which passed
through the door, and others lodged in
the walls. A squad of police finally
forced an entrance and at imminent risk
captured him. It was then ascertained
he had $50 in his possession, and could
not smell we'll. As he got no odor of
the gas, he imagined the walters were
all burglars, trying to get in and rob
him, and hence his conduct.-St Louis
Republican.

The Gorilla.

A gorilla from the west coast of Al
RIGA is now lodged in the Crystal Pal
ace, London. The chimpanzee and
the orang-outang have arms that
enable them, with a slight stoop, to
touch the ground, while the arm of the
gorilla is not much out of proportion to
a long-armed human being. In the
form of the hands and fingers, too, it is
more like man, these being much
shorter than those of the other two.
Most of all it's ear is strikingly human,
for it is small and beautifully formed,
and instead of thin leathery flap iut-
ting outward, is set we'll in the head.
It has also well-formed brow, and it's
dark brown eyes are lighted up with an
expression that seems to speak of latent
intelligence. In profile it has the ex-
act resemblance to a little Guinea ne.
gro, the blacklist of blacks; but, looked
at fun-faced, the almost total absence
of nose, the fiat and open nostrils, the
long and powerful jaws, and the vast
cavity which forms the mouth, rob it of
what is suggestive of the "hamau face
divine" When standing at its full
height the gorilla may be about two
feet, but if he lives to be full-grown he
may attain from four to five feet.

Bee RaRching in California.

This is famous country for bees and
the making OF honey, and at many
breakfast-table In distant Europe to-
day the waffle is spread with sweets that
have heen flched from the hearts of
1000 California flowers. In the mouth
of almost every canon there is hee-
ranch or apiary, whose owner grows
indolent and prosperous from the labors
OF his industrious subjects. Here there
are no long winters with 'dearth of
flowers, through which the patient work
ers must be nursed and fed in order
that they may live until the opening of
the next feld-season. These bee
ranches are models of neatness and do
nestle comfort, and the profession of
Bookkeeping is rapidly becoming popu-
Lar among persons of little physical
strength or small financial capital, or
both; such as maiden ladies, broken
down ministers, bachelor students, and
those dilettanti farmers who fancy that
the royal road to bucoic happiness lies
throug h the fowery beds of a bee-past
ure. Their expenses are as light as
those Of hermit in his cave, and what
stores of honey are laid up are SO much
clear gain, as the bees board themselves
while they work, and work increasingly
in preparation for the winter which
never comes. When the hive is full,
the cakes of comb are removed, the
liquid is strained from the cells, and the
empty cups are replaced, to be filed
again and again. This economical pro-
cess prevents waste of labor and time
in the gathering of wax and the build
ing of new bins in the store-house.
Walking out in the morning in the
green bushwood of these canons you
hear loud and continuous buzzing of
wings, and, although there may not be a
flower in sight, it is as ceaseless and
strong as in a buckwheat patch or clover
field at home. This humming of bees
is natures tenor voice, as the roaring
of water is her bass. There is a cure
for inconsistencies in the bees monotone,
even though the authers thereof be per
fectly wild, as, indeed, many of these
are. In such q country you cannot feel
utterly lonesome and lost. - SamadGv

A Singular Occurrence in Texas,

A man named AIKEN, living seven
miles northwest Of this place, was plow-
ing in his field, when he heard dull
rumbing sound like that of stones fall
ing in water. Suddenly his horse
leaped to the left and began a furious
run, and before Mr.. A. could under
stand the phenomenon the earth gave
way under him and he went down a
distance Of twenty feet into a cold
stream. Mr.. A. began to struggle
against the rapid tide and gained the
bank, along which he CROPPED his way to
the place in which he fell, sometimes on
dry rocks and again in eddies waist
deep, but finally placing his feet on
terra firma. A party went on the fol-
lowing day and ex plored the channel a
distance of several hundred yards either
way. The stream is represented as be-
ing ten feet wide by four or five deep.
the whole passage being about eighteen
feet wide by eight or ten feet in depth.

Some Advantages Of Smoking.

have been told chat in the last great
plague at London e. e. 1869 none that
kept tobacconist's shops had the plague.
It is certain that smoking was looked
upon as q most excellent preservative,
in so much that even children were
obliged to smoke. And I remember
that I heard formerly, Tom Rogers, who
was yeoman beadle, say that when he
was that year, when the plague ragged,
school boy at Elton, all the boys of
that school were obliged to smoke in
the school every morning, and that he
never was whipped 80 much in his life
as he was one morning for not smoking.

The Origin of Pin.Money.

The word pin.money is not much used
nowadays, and, when it is, is apt to be
used loosely. It is often employed to
mean an allowance by father or
husband for daughters or wife's ex-
ira expenses. But it's proper signif-
canoe is woman's allowance for all her
personal outlay, whatever it may be.
The origin of the term is something
singular. Long after the invention Of
pins, in the fourteenth century, the
maker was permitted to sell them openly
the LIST and I'd of January only, when
the court and city ladies crowded to. the
shops to buy them, having been pro-
vided by their fathers and husbands
with money for the purpose. After pins
had become plenty and cheap women
spent their money for other things but
pin-money remained in vogue. The
opinion, often expressed, that pins were
invented in France during the reign of
Francis l., and introduced into En-
gland by Catherine Howard, fifth wife
Of Henry VIII, is entirely erroneous.
In 1347, 200 years before the death of
Francis, 10000 pins were delivered from
the English royal wardrobe for the use
of the Princess Joan, and fifty-three
years later the Duchess D'Orleans pur-
chased of Jehan LIE Breconnier, pin
maker of Paris, several thousands of long
and short pins, besides 500 dozens of
the English fashion, showing that pins
were not only manufactured, but had
gained wide reputation abroad, during
the reign of Henry ". It is estimated
that hundreds of millions of pins are
used every year in the United States.
What becomes of all the pins is still a
question that remains unanswered and
Lnanswerable.
