Since April last the De Smet mine hal
produced $780, 600, at a cost of about $40,

1t is reported that a Deadwood sport was

he quietly dropped q faro check into It.
The 6. d. saw the play and smiled sadly,
but passed on without any profane remark,
knowing the check represented six collars
and twenty-five cents. and was promptly re-

Swallowing Needles and Pins.

The mouth is not to be played pranks
with, but it often is so. The needless
practice of putting small articles in the
mouth, either for the purpose of hold
ing them for few moments or for
playing some trick, has been frequently
attended with very serious conse-
quences. Yet the practice is common,
especially among young women, who
may be seen holding pins between their
teeth while dressing. Medical attend
ants in hospitals have frequent cause to
find fault with female patients Of
humble rank for putting pins in their
mouth when they have occasion to re-
move any part of their dress.
Children of both sexes seem almost
to have an instructive fancy to put play
things in their mouth, and sometimes
therefore give no end of trouble to par
ents and nurses. Notwithstanding
every precaution, distressing accidents
occur. A few years ago boy swal-
lowed asmall piece of brass chain, with
which he had been amusing himself by
putting it into his mouth, The bit of
chain lodged in the stomach, and
though medical aid was resorted to, the
poor child languished and died. Only
a few weeks ago, as mentioned in the
London Lancet, young boy in Devon
shire died from having allowed a small
tin whistle to slip from his mouth into
the trachea, where it stuck, and baffled
attempts at removal. Death took place
from inability to breathe.
Remarkable instances are related of
needles which had been accidentally
swallowed finding their way, point fore
most, through the sides of the stomach,
and thence to the exterior surface of
the body, where they are drawn out. 1t
is all chance, however, that they
make their escape in this harmless man
ner, and accordingly there is no excuse
for women tAoughtlessly, it may be per-
versely, putting needles in their mouth.
Those who do so run great risk of
perishing in considerable agony. Oc-
casionally female lunatics in their mad
freaks unwittingly kin themselves by
swallowing needles which they manage
to secrete. A case has been mentioned
to us of most extraordinary degree of
mad perversity. A female lunatic had
such morbid craving for swallowing
small parcels of needles which from time
to time she procured that at. length she
destroyed herself At a post-mortem
examination as many-if we mistake
not--as three hundred and ninety nee
dies, in a less or more state of corro-
sion, were found lodged in various parts
of her body. In another case that has
been recorded, the great French sur
geon, Baron Dupuytren, extracted two
hundred and fifty-four needles through
the skin, to which they had found their
way from the stomach. -HGrpeT'S

She soon began to dig a burrow, and
when 1t was about two inches ia depth,
she commenced to build a tower above
It, She takes stick from my fingers
and places it at the edge Of her tube.
She works while inside Of her burrow,
holding the stick with her fore-legs un-
til it is arranged to suit her she then
turns around and fastens it with a
strong web. She takes another stick
and proceeds in the same way, and
continues this until she has laid the
foundation of q five-sided wall She
now goes down to the bottom 81 her
tube and brings up a pellet of earth,
which she places on top Of The Sticks;
she goes all around, making circle Of
these pellets, which she 1ats6ns by pres
sing her body against them, ana are
ranges them in such o manner as to
cover the sticks on the inside. making
the walls perfectly round and SIX lined.
Now she is ready formor sticks, which
she continues to alternate with tho pel-
lets until the tower has reached the
height Of two and half inches above
her burroW. Isometimes gave ber bits
Of green moss an inch 1r two in length,
which she would use bylsstenina them
to a stick with web. Thii makes the
wall on the outside fringed with moss.
If she is not in mood for building,
and / offer her a stick, she takes 1t ia
her mandibles, and with her fore-feet
gives it a quick blow, often sending It
with torce enough to hit the jar, and
when she is digging and bringing up
pellets of earth which she does moi wish
to use in her tower, size throws them
from the top Of the walls with sufficient
force to make them land a foot or more
from the burroW, if it were not for the
Intervention of the glass. This account
ed for the fact that | could never find
any fresh earth near the burrows of
these spiders.-Mary Treat, in HGrper's

The Turret Spider.

It belongs to the genus TdrantstIG,
and is as large as the tiger, but quite
different in color. The male is soft
velvety black, while the female is gray
ish-brown, or like faded velvet. She
has a light gray spot on top of the
thorax, and on the abdomen are three
dark brown longitudinal stripes alter
mating with light gray. In young speei-
mems these markings are quite distinct,
butin old ones the colors blend some
what. The two sexes do not differ in
size, the male being fully as large as
the female. The body is a little more
than an inch anlength, and the legs are
large and long. which gives itquite 3
formidable appearance, but it IS. per-
fectly harmless.
/ have Professionally named it T'Grd75-
ttla Beirr5culG, reserving further de-
scription. The name was suggested
from its manner Of building. +
1t digs a burrow in the earth six or
seven Inches in dc tn, but the upper
part of its domicile is entirely unlike
that of the tiger-spider. This species
builds little round tower above its
burrow. It procures sticks from one to
two inches in length, and arranges
them very symmetrioally one above the
other, laying them so as to make five
sided wall.
1t is usually q most contented species
in confinement. Early in July l took
fine female. surrounded and almost
covered with baby spiders about ready
to leave the mOther-the young can
readily run up the side Of the jar and
escape. AS soon as they left her, I re-
moved the jar to my study; | did not
take the nest with this spider, as I
wished to see what she would do with
entirely new surroundings. The earth
in the jar was about six inches in depth,
and well pressed down. l gave her
sticks and moss to put around the top
Of her tube.

A Large ROYAL Family.

There are at present in Europe seven
hundred and nineteen princes and prin-
cesses, each having claim more or less
remote to a crown. The one with the
greatest number of titles is the Emperor
of Austria, Francis Joseph. In addition
to his title as emperor, he is nine times
king, once archduke, twice grand duke,
eighteen times duke, four times mar
grave, five times count prince, twice
prince, and many times count and lord.
His cartes de Yisite made the fortune of
photographers. The King Of Portugal
has eighteen first names, his eldest son
has twenty, and his youngest, twenty
nine. One of the kings of Portugal, ac-
oording to a Spanish story, gotlost in the
woods while hunting. Coming late at
night upon a little country inn, he
knocked and demanded shelter The
landlord put his head out of the window
and asked who was there. His Majesty
replied by giving allhis names and titles.
"Excuse me, str, ; said the landlord, II
haven't room in my house for so many
people," and he shut the window and
left the.king out in the cold. The title
of King of Jerusalem is borneby the En-
peror Of Austria, the ex-King Of Naples,
and the Prince de Lusignan. A similar
conflict exists between King Oscar of
Sweden and King Christian of Denmark,
each claiming to be king of the Goths.
Oscar also calls himself King of the
Wends, and Christian King of the Van
dals. The GrandDuke of Mecklenburg-
Strelitz is a General Of cavalry in the
Russian army, a Colonel of infantry
in the Hungarian army, and doctor Of
laws in Oxford University.
