aunchbacks.

A queer hunchback has just died at
Rue Cuvier, Paris, at a comparatively
advanced age, who being rich, healthy
and unmarried, spent the most of his
life in travelling and collecting statistics
on the subject of people deformed like
himself. He left voluminous manu-
script containing the fruit of his re-
searches He found hunchbacks most
abundant in Spain, instancing a small
hamlet in the Sierra Moreno where ev-
cry thirteenth inhabitant was hump
backed. Next to this he found the de-
formity most frequent in the basin Of
Loire. One person in thousand was
humpbacked, hence he arrived at the
conclusion that there were 1000, 1000
humpbacks in the world, whose humps,
averaging twenty .contimetres, or about
eight inches each, would if placed one
above the other, make a pile 100000
metres high, or, as he placed it, as high
as stem Cordilleras plus twenty-five
Mont Blanes plus all the Pyramids plus
all the spires Of all the cathedrals in Eu-
rope" He formulates the theory that
the form of the hump is in keeping with
the general character of the surrounding
country

How Mines are Named

Names of mines, like ones emotions
when eating Limburger cheese for the
first time, are peculiar. 1he'locator of
Dry Hash probably showed his prefer
ence for dish that is prominent fea-
ture in boarding house, and has large
circle of acquaintance. Little Blk
leaves one to infer that there was great
many of them. Molly Darling shows
that, although she is getting to be an old
maid, she still has admirers. The Fraud
is no exhibition of human nature; the
the locator wanted to pique the vein
and spur it to belle its name. On in
quiring of one miner why he named his
claim 81 Know ALL" he explained:
"When 1 left the east, left my girl
there, and-some trouble with another
lady. When l got out here, wrote to
my girl so, but you know how fellow
will write. l wrote that l expected to
return soon and cage her in a palace.
She said: 81 know all. Yours no more.
Jane Asking another how he came
to name his Terror" he replied: "For
a lady," "How? Didn't not know that
was a female name" "Well, you see,
that's my wife, she's terror. Left her
in Gold Hill" Tom Pike being oues-
toned as to his naming location Joab
Johnson, said: "That-that was my
name in the States" l asked the pro
prietor of the Last Chance if he really
considered that his last chance for for
tune; if he failed would he try again
"No, sir; no, sir; will go to Robin the
stages" To the man who was showing
me his two claims l remarkedS "From
the name, The Treasury, you must have
hopes of this" That isn't why named
it that" "Why then2' others nothin'
in it. "And this second one, Hector;
you admire the valiant Trojan T. "Nam-
ed for my dog, Hector He's dead now

Grant and the Beetle.

The American Minister had a recep-
ton January 9th in honor of General
Grant. His Excellency is recovering
from a somewhat severe attack of illness,
and was only present for short time,
but his daughter did the honors admira-
bly,. Diplomacy, aristoracy, bureaucra-
cy, plutocracy and mobocracy were all
fully represented. People never seemed
tired of staring at General Grant, and,
more curious still, he never seems tired
Of being stared at. 1t was instructive
TO listen 10 the remarks at the ceremony
Of presentation. The Ex-President is
known to be man of few words, but
his visitors evidently Thought some
interchange of ideas necessary. Royalty
alone is not addressed. The remarks
by twenty consecutive guests were care
fully noted with the following result =:
nineteen said, "Glad to see you back,
General" One said, "You must reallybe
tired, General" The nineteen possibly
spoke the truth; the twentieth certainly
did. The object which, next to the
eX-President himself, attracted the most
attention was lady adorned with
scarabacbi. She had a beetle on her
shoulder and a beetle on her muti. The
first, an American said, was man-made,
the other was God-made, and it was the
latter which every one wanted to see
Minister'S left off their endless discus
sions on the Eastern Question, and la
dies theirs on the last new fashions, to
interview this beetle. 1t was most pos
itively ahve-not good piece of ma
chinery, but a genuine living, crawling
pet. Round its waist was "a fine band Of
gold attached to this what might be
called golden crupper; small chain
was fastened to this armor, which pre-
vented it straying. Its owner states
that since its arrival from Mexico, six
months ago, it has neither eaten nor
drank nor been undressed. She was
not sure if it was affectionatc. La
Dame aux Searches was extremely at
tractive, her pet wondrously repugnant.

Ostriches.

The males are splendid birds, often
measuring 7 feet in height when the
head is raised, and about 4 feet to the
shoulder, with black shining feathers on
the back, and the beautiful plumes, both
black and white. under the wings and
on the sides of the tail. A band of
bright red or pink runs down one leg,
and they prance about with great dignity
shaking the wealth of rich loose hang
ing feathers under their short arms, las
one might saw with much pomp and
ceremony before their ladies, who are
more quietly dressed in gray. They too,
have however, some white feathers; but
these cannot be depended upon, as they
are often streaked with gray, and are
never SO valuable as those of the male
birds. Their large eyes have a curious
film, which they can bring over them
and retract at pleasure. A pair of
fine ostriches is said to be worth about
ESQ, and five were now parted with, but
the remaining nine used nightly to settle
themselves to roost at equal distances
along the farm yard, with their large
projecting breasts fiat on the earth.
And stranger driving up to the place
in the dusk was more than once con-
fronted by the nine sentincls suddenly
uprising from the ground to their full
height with startling effect, They are
extremely strong, and can kill man by
striking at him with the full force Of the
leg, when the claw, above an inch long,
of the front toe, vii tear the flesh from
head to foot: the wound from the nail is
considered to be poisoned. The bird
when it is TO be plucked is therefore
very carefully secured; it is driven into
narrow pen and bar let down be-
hind it. A stocking is then drawn over
its head, and when once blindfolded it
remains motionless, makes no resistance.
The quill Of the feather, when alive, is
full Of blood, and plucking must be a
painful process. About twenty of the elmer
feathers and thirty Or forty of the COM
moner ones, are taken at the same time,
when the poor birds wounds are rubbed
with sweet oil and vinegar. 1t soon
seems to recover; but the tender-hearted
master sometimes cuts the plumes off
near the root instead Of plucking them !;
these, however, do not sell SO well. A
good feather is worth 10 shillings at
Cape Town, and the produce of the five
ostriches amounts to about EGO year.
This, in bad season, when the wheat is
devoured by rust, when the sheep have
the scab, when the cattle suffer from dry
seasons and short crops, and the oidium
is threatening the vines, must be very
pleasant resource to the Cape former in
his need, which the English one will
envy him.

The American Eagle.

Full fifteen minutes the yell, the
shrek, the bang, and the howl went on
their tumultuous way, our English cous-
ms looking on with curiosity. Only a
few days before they had let off final
steam and thought they had reached the
climax of noise "Just wait until you
hear what we can do in that line, said
Mr.. Pickering, when asked if he had
heard John Bulls whistle. They did
wait. The English machinists gathered
round our eagle, and wondered that so
little could produce so much. 1t re-
minded me of the donkey and his bray,
when there is SO much more bray than
there is donkey that one fancies there
must be supplementary animal invisibly
attached, "By Jovel" exclaimed an
English machinist, II thought we made
q row when our engine stopped, but this

from Sir Hubert Stanley is praise in

Ex-Senator Foote In his Old Age.

/ saw the white-haired, feeble father
in-law of an ex- United States Senator
this morning, and the apparition set me
thinking. The father-in-law himself
had formerly been Senator Of the
United States, a Governor Of State
and member Of the Confederate Con-
gress. He is now very old man,
boarding at a cheap house for sl5 a
month, wearing a dreadfully seedy black
coat, and psntaloons all frayed ut the
bottom, but still retaining in his air and
manners Renaissance of the dignity
of his lost estate. He was q man Of
unbounded vanity and great physical
courage. He fought two duels with pis-
tolls with the late Senator 8. Prentiss
just before the bombsrdment commenc-
ed M. Prentiss saw some boys who had
climbed tree at safe distance to his
rsght to see the fun. He called out to
them, "Get down, little boys, Foote
might hit you" This contempt of the
Workmanship Of IN antagonist was
deemed sufficient cause for another chal-
lenge, and Mr.. Prentiss had to meet Mr.
Foote again, when, ! believe he wound
Cd him in the foot. Omaha Herald.

Good Enough.

The English language may seem to
the inhabitants of the British Isles good
enough for anybody, but on this side Of
the ocean we have thousands of persons
with pretensions to education and cul-
ture who make incessant complaint
of the vernacular. According to these
authorities the language lacks elegance
and expressiveness, so that at the slight
est excuse they drop into some other
tongue, that of France being fer some
inexplicable reason preferred. But now
comes learned German, who, for fif-
teen years studied the language with
that persistency which is peculiar to the
Teutonic mind and the terror Of all
others, pronounces the English language
the most expressive, logical and satisfac-
tory tongue in Europe. Unfortunately
for the fancies of the literary dillettanti,
DIR. Weisse, the authority alluded to,
has written book upon the language,
in which he details his reasons 40 dis
tinctly and with an array of linguistic
facts as corroborative evidence that no
denial is possible Y. Herald.

A st. Louis gentleman, we'll known as
a writer, has just returned from Balti-
more, bringing with him the stone which
marked the grave of Edgar A. Poe be-
fore the remains of the poet were re-
moved to their present resting place, be-
meath monument, and also a part of
the coffin containing them. The relics
were obtained from the sexton who had
charge of the removal of the body, and
curious interview was had with him.
The sexton was asked in what condition
Poe's body was when the grave was
opened what it looked like. The an
swer revealed a curious fact not hereto
fore made public. The sexton said that
all remained of the body was skeleton !,
tolerably well preserved, ''and," he
added, "when the head was moved the
brains ratified around inside Just like a
lump of dirt" His idea was that the
brain Of Poe had dried into q ball,
which rolled about in the cavity. The
stone brought to st. Louis is a
small sandstone slab, with a number
on it to designate the occupant of the
grave, and seood over Poe's coffin for
years. The wood Of the coffin is, Of
course, somewhat decayed. 1t has been
suggested that the relics would form a
desirable addition to the collection of the
st. Louis Mercantile Library, and it is
possible that they may be donated to
the institution. Gazette.

Coasting.

The boys were coasting down Syca-
more Street Hill last evening. when
John sanscript and his wife came along.
They had been up on Baltimore street
visiting, and were on their way home.
"Just see them boys, now," said John,
as he braced up at the intersection of
Mulberry street, "It really reminds me
of the days when l was lad. Do you
know, Jane, that used to coast down hill
on a sled that way"
"Did you, John9'
"Why, yes; but that's fifty year ago"
Sanscript scratched his head oontem-
platively, and then muttered, soto voice:
"Durn my grandaddy's buttons if | don't
try it."
''Try what, dearl" anxiously asked
Mrs. S.
"Im going to coast just once to revive
recollections of fifty year ago"
"Now, John, if l were you--"
"But you are not me, so don't interfere.
Here, sonny" Ito lad who had just
pulled up the hill with his sled). "Here,
sonny, I'll give you a quarter to let me
The bars ain was eagerly nailed and
clinched.
"Be keerful, old man," urged the boy,
as Sanscript squatted rather awkwardly
on the sled; be keerful, l say, and don't
let her funk one way or t'other till she
brings up, or you'll git mashed"
Never mind, yomker," assured John,
"I've been here afore-some years aforc
but"
But what will never be known, for
Just then the sled, of it's own accord,
started down hill, and even John him.
self has not been able to recall what he
was about to observe. The surprise at
the sled's unexpected movement was
general.
'Look out" yelled the boy.
"Oh, john" screamed Mrs. Sanscript.
"Whoa, there" yelled John.
But the sled wouldn't whoa. 1t
seemed to have set off down that hill to
beat its time. John had chance only
to clutch hold of both sides and hold his
breath for fear the wind would blow off
the top of his head. The only thought
he had time to foster was that the boy
must have creased the runners as prac-
tical joke. And If this was coasting, he
had never coasted.
Two-thirds of the way down the hill
the sled struck an ice hummock, and
Immediately his course was changed to
a parabolic curve
Whack! bang! crash. clink!
The bringing up was awfully sudden
and uncertain. Sanscript and the sled
disappeared as abruptly as a shooting
star. The latter lay shivered to atoms
against lamp post, and Sanscript lay
shivering in the grocery cellar just oppo-
site. When the offrunner of the sled
collided with the lamp post and stopped
the vehicle, Sanscript rose like a circus
leaper and went right on turning twenty
somersaults to the second. He went
through the grocery window at the cir
cus-leaper goes through paper hoop.
The grocer appeared soon after and COM
promised upon John paying the follow
ing bill 4:
