MIR. spAULD1Na's LECTURES.

The second lecture in the course on ''Ro- man Life and Art'' will be given at the Grand Opera House tonight at o'clock. The sub ject, "Risen Pompeii, or the Daily Life of the Old Roman World" is one of popular in- terest. It is natural that people of the pres- ent day should be as much interested in the manners, habits and daily life of the Ro- mans as in the wars which they waged and the countries they subdued. The latest Ro- man histories have been devoting muck at tention to this new field of research, and for much of its knowledge of the subject the world is indebted to what the buried city has revealed under the spade of the excavator. By these means much has been learned of the daily life of the Romans, of which the literary works that have come down to us
 make little mention. It will surely bring that old life wildly back to the audience to see pictured on the screen the objects of daily use, the utensils of the kitchen, views of the shoemakers' shops and of carpenters at work, and inscriptions and writing tablets containing bankers accounts and showing that the Romans were like in some respects to the men and women of to-day. Course tickets for the remaining five lectures can be obtained at Judd's bookstore for g and $1.50, according to location.

Old Barty Willard was a wheelwrlght
by trade, and, though an excellent work
man, was remarkable for his habit of pro-
crastlna,ing. He would promise and then
break his engagement over and over again
with as little scruple and as many posi-
lively lasts" as theatrical star. Having
pledged his word to very urgent Gus
toner, for the third time, he would have
his cart done by certain day, Barty again
failed to keep his engagement, and on the
arrival of the owner the cart was still un-
finished.
Well says the customer, '.you have
got my cart done by this time, Of course?"
Yes" said Barry, 81 had done the
work and supposed it was quite ready for
you, when i discovered that made mis-
take-a very unaccouptable mistake-that
will put me back fortnight"
'.Ah, indeed" said the customer, "whai's 8
the trouble.'
"Why, you see" said Barty, with grav
ity, and an air of extreme vexa-
ton, '.you see l have made a mistake-I
never made such blunder before In my
life-I have committed the ridiculous mis-
take of making bUth wheels for the same
side; they are both off wheels"
lis it possible!" said the customer, who
was thoroughly mystified. and allowed
Barty another fortnight to finish the cart,

The Cedars of Lebanon.

The cedars of Lebanon, once the glory
Of the earth. have become like history OF
the past. Time was when their wide
spreading branches, each forming green
plateau one above the other, fiourished in
all their luxurance and beauty on the far
famed mountain of Lebanon. That was
the time when the monarch of Tyre-a
city then the queen OF nations-sent thous-
ands of his workmen to fell cedars for the
construction of the temple at Jerusalem.
These who would view the cedars of Leb-
anon now, must be somewhat affected by
the fewness of their number. and their de-
cav and desOlation. \ little remnant is
left, and the traveller gaZes upon them
with feeling akin to sadness. All through
the middle ages, a visit to the cedars of
Lebanon was regarded by many persons in
the light of pilgrimage. Some of the
trees were thought to have been planted by
King Solomon himself, and were looked
upon as sacred relics. Indeed, the visitors
took away so many pieces of wood from
the bark, of which to make crosses and
other articles, that it was feared the trees
would be destroyed. The once magnificent
grove is but speck on the mountain side.
Many persons have taken it in the distance
for a wood of fir-trees. But on approach
ing nearer, and taking closer view, the
cedars resume somewhat of their ancient
majesty. The space they cover is not
more than half mile; but once amidst
them, the 1eautiful fsn-like branches over
head, the exquisite green of the younger
trees, and the colossal size Of the older trees,
fills the mind with interest and admiration.
The trees are fast disappearing from the
face of the earth. Each succeeding trav-
eler finds them fewer in number than his
predecessor. There are now but seven
of the cedars remaining, which from their
age and experience, indicate that they had
an existence In Bible days

Among the anomalies of Australia is a
singular growth of the forest that deviates as
much from tree as kangaroo from the
ordinary types of animals, although 1t is
called tree. The grass tree grows in
rocky places unfavorable for other vegets-
bic productions. Absolute barrenness is u
spot where the plant flourishes best, appa-
rently, though elements must abound there
which are appropriate nourisbment. A
mass of grass looking fibers gradually rises
out of the ground, From day to day there
is an increase Of bulk and height very much
resembling an elevated tuft OF long grass
gracefully falling off from central shaft.
These pendant threads are leaves. Very
soon from the top OF the pile u slenda
stalk shoots ur perpendicularly from four
to ten feet, terminating in spike. Tha,
is sought by natives for spears, being hard
and somewhat elastic. Within the pith is
an article Of food. In the rude and savage
condition of the indigenous Australians the
grass tree furnishes weapon Of extraor-
dinary usefulness for meeting the cIrcum-
stances OF barbarous state of society.
Without it no other equally efficient instru-
ment of defence against enemies, or Tor
contending with ferocIous animals, is at
their command.

Garments of Glass.

A short article was printed recently stat
ing that a Pittsburg firm was about 10
begin manufacturing all kinds of garments
from spun glass. Specimens have now been
made and exhibited, among the articles
being a large tableclOth, a towel and nap
kin. AT first sight they could not be dis
tinguished from the common kind, bat. on
closer inspection, were found to be marvel
lous specimens of glass manufacture. The
tablecloth was about six feet square, and
white in color, save near the ends and sides
where border Of delicate but pretty green
added a tasty finish to the entire piece
The cloth was fringed on its four sides.
The other articles were similar, save in the
borders, which were pink and red respective
ly. Tns cloth was found to De made of
threads, not transparent, which rivalled
cObwebs in gossamer-like tenuity. These
frail filaments were woven together per-
fectly, and the cloth proved to be az hexi-
bic but slightly heavier than if II had been
composed of cotton. IL Is sd that this
cloth could be washed cad irOned with
equal propriety. Feathers were exhibited,
fashioned into natural shape out Of van
ously colOred threads of glass. The base
OF each feather was piece Of brass wire,
about which the millions Of tlbres of the
article were connected. Each piece had
about the same proportions as an ostrich
feather, and all were wonderfully beauti-
full in hue and shape. OF course the curl
GUS process Of manufacture Is secret
with the firm. About 250 of the fine glass
threads are spun in a minute and each
thread is ten miles in length. The weav-
ing is done on an ordinary loom, adapted
in some respects, to the requirements Tie
fabric cannot be ripped or torn, and can be
spun, woven and sold at less cost than cot
ton, silk or what other fabric the firm
chooses to initiate. Whether this crystal
cloth be either coarse or fine in texture,
when worn as dress. shawl or other gar
ment, it will prove itself to be just as warm
easy fitting and comfortable, in every way,
as clothing of any other kind. Some OF the
wqite neckties made from glass, when
worn at night in brilliantly lighted room,
sparkle and glisten like diamonds, giving
very startling and pleasing effect. The
firm ls now ready for orders, and intends
placing manufactured articles upon the
market at once.

Planting Oysters.

The wise husbandman exercises COM
mendable judgment in the prosecution of
his vocation, would he reap large and
profitable crops, the most important ele-
ments in his forecasts being time, place
and method, and no question is of more
importance to him than, ''How, when and
wherel" If TINS be the case with tillers
of the soil, of how much greater import
ance Is a similar nicely of adjustment and
method required by those who cultivate
the mighty depths of the sea, where un-
certainty plays so important parti In
oyster planting, broad-s;ghted proprietors
are acknowledging this and seize upon
every device known to assist them, wheth-
experience of others, while the conserva-
tive and independent planter who ''takes
no stock in new-fangled notions" goes on
as he alone elects, claiming particular
pre- -eminence and success in old time phil
osophies. The planting season begins
about the 10th of July and lasts until the
latter part OF August, although the time
for commencing work should vary accord
ing to the weather.. a warm early spring
allowing "a much earlier start than a cold,
backward season Successful growers pay
particular attention to this condition which
is an important element to successful cul-
ture. First of all, the ground to be plant
ed is thckly shelled. When it is ready
for the reception of the seed, which is
spread on from sailing vessels and steam
ers, the men shoveling of from both sides
at once. In culling over stock for market,
the cullings are spread over ground to be
seeded at any time of the year, and shell
are spread on in time for the spawning
season. The spawn is moved hiIber and
tbither by the action of the tides, and re-
quires peculiar conditions in order to
procure a good ''set;' the main feature
being that it becomes properly attached to
the shells, without which the work OF a
whole season goes for nothing. What is
loss to one, however, is often gain to
another planter, the spawn frequently float
ing away to ennch neighboring grounds.
In small lots owners frequently depend on
the drifting spawn to seed down their beds,
but this penny-wise policy is not safe
one, the only sure method being the prop
er distribution of seed over the ground.
The best ground is hard or sticky bottom
which produce better shaped shells and
liner oysters, although the growth is SLOW
er than on a muddy bottom, which pro-
duces a long, softer shell which is less
marketable. In seeding new ground about
2000 bushels of cuttings are required 10
10, 900 bushels of shells, and 100 bushels
OF clean oysters to 1000 bushels Of shells.
