Alpaca.

This useful material, so much in de-
mand at the present day, is manufac-
tured from the wool of the alpaca goat,
q species OF the Llama, whose home is in
the mountain regions of Peru. 1t lives

that springs Up in the fastness OF the

to England or France, or to wherever

washed, dried, combed md finally sorted

of its preparation. Ladies W i'll admit

L Divers Remarkable Feats.

The London Times thus describes
some OF the remarkable performances
under water of q diver named Fleuss:
His remarkable performance was better
seen than it has been elsewhere either
during the few months of the exhibit
tion of his apparatus at the Polytechnic
or ut Brighton. He can stay under water
for five hours without an air tube or
any ether communication with the sur
face, and the absence of incumbrance
gives him much greater freedom than
any other divers possess. He can, for
instance, lie down and bend his pody
in any position without fear of being
lifted or Aoated up, and without suffer
ing from the obstruction of the long
pipe which usually connects the head of
q diver with boat above. In short, he
assesses the principal advantage which
distinguishes m animal from plant;
he moves independently instead Of be:
ing rooted to one spot. Foreshadowed
in the water, he presents g. curious ap-
pearance, with great google eyes in his
FURNISHED hemlet, strong water-tight
Gress, and water-boots. The spectators
amuse themselves by throwing pence
for him to pick up. or by writing mes
sages to him on cardboard, aiwavs
under water. He sharpens his pencil
under water, gives and receives signals
with cord, and is to experiment on
the submarine use of the telephone. At
Ryde he walked for quarter of mile
under the sea; at Brighton he went
down in five fathoms by the chain pier
in rough weather. If he could eat
under water, Mr.. Fleuss says he could
stay for longer period than five hours,
which he gives as an ordinary limit
Yesterday afternoon he remained two
hours and seven minutes under water
in the aquarium, and again went down
for halt an hour in the evening. In a
short lecture on his apparatus which
Mr.. Fleuss gave in the evening, immedi-
ately on returning to tue upper air, he
stated that his method is no secret, that
it is patented, and that the specifica-
tions are accordingly published. In
every draught Of breath we draw we
take in certain amount Of oxygen with
four times as much nitrogen. A little
of the nitrogen becomes fixed in the
form of carbonic acid, and the air thus
deterioated becomes unfit to breathe.
II, however. tie place of the missing
oxygen is taken by a fresh supply, the
mix ture becomes again fit for breath
ing. According to Mr.. Fleuss, hetakes
down compressed oxygen to supply the
place of that which is breathed; in othe:
words, he has invented set of anti
lungs, which perform function pre-
cisely the reverse of that of the lungs
proper. This was confessedly rough,
popular, hasty, and generalized expla-
nation.

Indian SnperstitlOns About Thunder

Almost all the tribes in the United
States believed the thunder to be pro-
duced by the wings of great bird,
and that the lightning was the serpents
that were invariably connected with the
thunder bird. Among the ancient
tribes of the Mississippi valley the
thunder, therefore, soon became thun-
der god, who could be propitiated with
sacrifices. The Illinois Indians offered
up small dog when a child happened
to be sick upon day when there was
much thunder, Bupposing the latter to
be the cause of the malady. Many in
cidents, like confagrations, were attribu-
ted to this angry god, and some tribes
did bloody penance in propitiation,
often burning to death their own chill
dren. Statements that the Indians
adored the thunder, however. seems 10
be erroneous. 1t was the cause of the
thunder that they v'orshiped, and be,
fore which they burned tobacco and
buffalo meat, or cut off the joints OF
their fingers or threw their children
into the fire when they were overcome
With fear. The Peruvians had as ali
idol a stone that had been split by the
liehtning. They offered it gold and sill.
yer. The natives of Honduras burned
cotton seed when it thundered: Other
southern tribes made no sacrifices on
the approach of storm, but abased
themselves in the most abject fear.
The wild rice being aquatic and looking
like an arrow or spear, it is also attribu-
ted to the thunder spirit as its origin.
In Mexico great temples were built
upon the sacred spots where lightning
had struck. A curious notion among
Peruvians was that The preserved bodles
of twin children who died in infancy
should be worshiped, supposing that
cne of them was the son of the thunder,
the origin of this idea being the fact
that the thunder god of that people was
one of the celestial twins of fApocatequin
and Piqaerad. The tradition was util'
lied by Pizarro's missionaries to tesch
the Indians the doctrine Of the Trinity

Rejected Manuscripts.

Rejected contributors are sometimes
avenged. A Scotch newspaper, the
Greenocb Advertiser, has ceased to exist,
after life of seventy-eight years. This
paper will he remembered for one thing
only, it rejected Campbell's poem of
Hohenlinden, on the ground that it was
mot up to the mark" Campbell HIM
self thought lightly of the poem. it is
said, until he was assured by Sir Walter
Scott that it was one Of the finest things
of the kind that he ever read. Since
that time, the poem has been worn out
by the myriads of schoolboys who haYe
spoken it in public on the stage. Char
lotte Bronte's great novel met with a
similar reception. "Jane Eyre" was
written in the gray old parsonage under
the Yorkshire hills; the rough notes,
sketched hasty in pencil, were tran
scribed in a neat hand as legible rs
print, and the manuscript, in its brown
paper wrapper, was sent off from the
station-house at Kleighley to publisher
after publisher, only to find its way back
again, returned with thanks" till the
packet, scored all over with publishers
names, and well-nigh worn out by its
travels, found its way into the hands OF
Messrs. Smith & Elder. with stamped
envelope inside for reply. The story
of "Jane Eyre" is, with authors who
cannot find a publisher, one OF the stanG'
ing sources of consolation, and it ls O
very striking instance of the loose way
in which publishers readers now and
then look through manuscripts that flnd
their way into other hands.

FOR THE FAIR SEX.
Association Of Old Maids.

The Old Maids association, of Geau-
ga county, Ohio, had picnic on the
lake recently and mustered eighty-six
souls. This society was an outgrowth
of the war, and was organized in 1862
by q bevy of young ladies whose
brothers and sweethearts were fighting
for their country and left them without
the resources of male escort, except
the lsggards who remained at home.
Unwilling to accept the gallantry Of
these young men, the young ladies pre-
ferred to depend upon themselves, and
formed the association mentioned. Out
of revenge the gallants dubbed these in
dependent damsels "old maids," and
they accepted the cognomen and made
it their own. A humorous constitution
and bylaws were drafted by Mrs. G. E..
Henry, then single young lady, and
one Of the founders of the institution.
Man was declared the common
enemy" "and one of the chief objects of
the society was continued war against
his advances. He was religiously ex.
cluded from all meetings, and special
clause of the bylaws said that any
member who should marry should be
fined one hundred big copper cents and
should be branded with tar on the soles
of her feet, "U. D. L." meaning" up
and done it." The beautiful consistency
of woman's nature will be appreciated
when it is known that every one of the
charter members and nearly all Of
eligible age since are married.-NetO

Snotted Tails Children.

A Washington letter says: The news
that Spotted Tail, one Cf the Sioux
chiefs, had taken his boys and girls
away from the schools provided tor
them by the government is no surprise
to those who heard Spotted Tail, Red
Cloud or Others Of the Sioux chiefs talk
on that subject when they were here re-
Gently. Spotted Tail, with Red Cloud
and others, paid visit TO the Indian
school established at Carlisle, Pa, on
the way here, and called there on thelr
return to their Western homes. spot
ted Tail, next to Red Cloud. is the hnest
looking Indian that comes here. tie
was very much pleased with the things
he saw at Carlisle, and so expressed
himself. After talking to the superin-
tendent of the school and the teachers
for a while he called his boys and had a
talk with them privately. He learned
from the bows that the rod was used
when the boys did not do as they should,
or when they sulked, for be 1t known
that it is lust rs natural for an Indian,
Young or old, to sulk as it is for those
distinguished politicians who W re not
suited at Chicago. Spotted Tail, alter
leaving, had talk with the superin.
tendent, and he told him what he had
heard. He asked if it was true. Upon
being told that it was, he answered {:
"Neither my boys or girls shall ever be
whipped by any one with my consent.
I will not leave them at school, or any
other place where the whip is used. A
whipped boy is apt to grow up O whip
ped man. Unless he has some spirit or
life in him it is better that he know
nothing. A whipped man has neither
spirit or life." He then turned to the
Indian children and said to them in the
natural tongue: "Don't let any one
whip you, teacher or any one else. You
have no master. Never allow any one
to strike you blow" An effort was
made to satisfy Mr.. Spotted Tail that the
whipping administered at Carlisle was
the same as at other schools and was
only slight affair. The idea of "spar-
ing the rod aud spelling the child" was
suggested to him, but he said he did moi
believe in whipping in any way; that
any man who struck his child had better
keep out of his way, and that he would
soon draw his children from any place
where they were liable to be whipped, il
mattered not how slight: This with
| drawal ofhis children is the result.
