EcceLtric Animals.

The subject of depraved taste in ANIMALS
Is an interesting one, which has not been
studied as much rs il might In human
heings it would seem to depend on ill-health
of either body or mind, but in animals il
would seem as if 1t might be present and
the animals enjoy good health. One re-
markable instance in herbIvorOus animal
we can vOuch for. ltoccuIred IN a sheep that
had been shipped on board one of the p. and
o. steamers 10 help to supply the kitchen on
BOARD. but while fattening it developed an
inOrdinate taste for tobacco, which it would
eat in any quantity il WAS given TO H. 1t
did not care much for segars, and altogeth-
er objected 10 burnt ends: but il would
greedily devOur the half chewed cud OF a
sailor or a handful OF roll tobacco. While
chewing there was APPARENTLY no undue flow
of SALIVA. and its taste was so peculiar that
most Of the passengers on board amused
themselves by feeding it, to see for them
selves if it was really so. As a CONSEQUENCE
though in a fair condition the cook was
afraid to kill the sheep, believing that the
mutton would have u flavor of tobacco.
Another very remarkable case has just been
communicated to us by Mr.. Francis Good
lake: this time a flesh-sa,ing animal in the
shape of a kitten, about five months old,
who shows a passionate fondness for salads.
|, eats no end of sliced cucumber dressed
with vinegar, even when hot with cayenne
pepper. After little fencing it has eaten
piece of boiled beet with mustard. Its
mother was at least once seen to eat a slice
of cucumber which had salt, pepper, and
vinegar ON it The kitten is apparently in
good health, and its extraordinary taste is
not easily accounted for. Even snpposing
it got feed of salmcn mayonnaise, why
should it now select to prefer the dressing
to the fish I

Kite-FIyIng Extraordinary.


Kite flying is an expensive recreation in
BOdie. A saloon keeper of that mining
center recently made kite of $500 plate
glass, 6xl0 bar-room mirror, tying it to
string of demIjOhns and brown jugs for
tail. The novel kite went up with rush,
and, rejecting the rays Of the sun, dazzled
the eyes of all that beheld it. Its focus ex-
tended as far as Mammoth, where a hay
stack was set on fire by concentrations of
the suns rays. The inhabitants OF the lat
ter place was greatly alarmed at the singu-
lar object in the heavens, one cOrrespon-
dent having compared it TO "a ball of con-
densed lightning" Unfortunately the saloon
keepers sock of jugs and demijohns was
not large enough to supply the necessary
cOunterpoise TO the heavy mirror. and, after
ascending to great height, with amazing
rapidity, it suddenly turned and fell with u
crash to the earth, breaking ii into a thOus-
and fragments. The whisJlng OF the wind
in the Jugs and demiiohns made peculiar
sort of music, the stone Jugs supplying the
base and the glass demiiohns the treble. 1t
happened that they were ali in accord, and
fine harmony was the result.

The Medical Ice Hat.

Dr. Richardson believed that by icing
blood that went through the carotids TO the
brain and blood that came back through
the jugulars, we should directly lower the
temperature of the brain itself; and pro-
badly it may have been done exE e-imenial y
but IN practice it wss net found easy 10 d..
1t was difficult to keep any kind of cravat
or collar that was tried filled with ice,
round the neck of the patient; 1t slipped
off, and the old India rubber bag or ice
helmet, so well known in luEa,ic asylums,
had to be resorted to. After time Mr..
Thornton combined particular form of
cap, which answers the purpose extremely
well. A pail of water, with large lump
of ice in it, is placed above the bed of the
patient, and the stream of ice water ruDs
through the cap, which is formed Of coil
of India rubber tubing, lined with linen.
That is placed upon the patients head, and
! it is made of different sizes and shapes to
fit the patient; the other extremity of the
tube Is put into second pail at the side Of
the bed, and by this means the head is
iced. The effect in lowering temperature
is very marked, the thermometer in almos,
all instances indicating fall OF temper a
ture within an hour. II the temperatur,
be rising it is checked, and If very high /
can be lowered. and so Time is gained TO
the recovery of the patient

Mount Etna still Active.

Professor Silvestri, of Ca:ania, reports
that since the shower of ashes On July Is.
Etna has shown various signs OF activity.
The latest manifestation is phase of mud
eruptions at Palermo, on the southeast of
the mountain Two c-aters have been
violently ejecting abundant torrents OF
mud, more consistent than usual, and Of a
higher temperature (l40 degrees Fahren-
heit). This mud, accommodating IN the
basins in large masses, finally broke
through all barriers, OverfiOwed and de-
stroyed the adjoining fields, and buried
several mills and farmhOuses. In this
eruption there was an abundant develop
ment and pressure Of gaseous matter, of
such force that 1t produced oscillations
strong enough TO tear up the old lava, form
Ing rents out Of which the gas rushed with
The noise of boiler letting of its steam.
Coincident with these phenomena, clouds
of vapOr issued from the eruptive fissure of
last year, confirming the opinion that this
fissure, living between the two principal
craters Of 1879 and the great central one
is still in communication with the central
eruptIve axis, for vapOr, mixed with ashes
which fell all over the cone, also issued
from the central crater. This activity con-
tinued during several days, and still con-
tinues with decreased intensity, seen from
Catania in the shape Of dense clouds COW
ering the whole summit OF Etna in clear
sky. Changes have also taken place which
have entirely altered the form of the central
crater. The old ravine, which formerly
crossed the crater, and made twO-thirds
of it into an ample and easily accessible
basin, a natural laboratory for the study Of
the products Of the volcano, now exists no
longer. The central crater, from the effects
of violent connections, has Crumbled, and.
with part of its sides and the high point
whence 1t was formerly possible to enjoy
the sunrise, has been precipitated into the
ravine, diminishing the height of the NOUN
tsin by about 40 feet, while the circumfer-
ence of the crater has become wider by
half Ii kIOmetre. The general destruction
of o ii sides has in a certain way rejuven-
re rthe crater, which has regained its
characteristic form of q tunnel, at the bot
tom Of which is now the eruptive mouth.

Egypts Scattered OpeIisks.

Thirty obelisks transported from Egypt
from time TO time are now standing in vari
Gus parts of Europe. OF these there are in
Rome eleven. of which four are higher
than the New York obelisk. The highest
of these, and the highest in Europe, being
l06 feet without the base stands before the
church Of ST. John Lateran. The obelisk
in the piazza of St. Peters is eigbty-two
feet nine inches high. both of these are
mounted on high pedestals- The pedestal
of the St John Lateran obelisk is forty -four
feet high, making the entire height Of
obeiisk and pedestal $50 feet. The pedestal
of the ST. Peters obelisk is tritle less than
fifty feet high, making the whole height Of
the monument l52 feet two inches. II
Commander Gorringe has brought with
him the entire pedestal on which the New
York obelisk stood at Alexandria, about
the same proportions will be observed as
those of ST. John Lateran obelisk, the
pedestal of the former being twenty-seven
feet one inch, and its obe.isk sixty-eight
feet eleven inches. making the whole height
of our obelisk ninety-six feet.

ever II might be called, that is an applra
tus of rather unique appearance 1t rises
somewhat in the shape of a tower or light
house from central pedestal. and from
the top extend large vanes covered with
canvas. Inside the apparatus is clock
work, and when this is wound up il runs

attracted the attention of ranchman who
was passing the door.
"Hello. What you got there?,'
''The model of new style OF wind

''Ah, yes, See. | supposed as much, !"
said the rancher, supposed as muc:i,
and he walked round and viewed it from
various points.
"a big one after that style would be just
the thing for pumping water on rancne,
suggested the bystsnder who is something
of a wag.
"Ya-es,' hesitatingly replied the rancher,
glancing towards the door and holding
UP his hand TO see if he could feel breeze
coming In-''ya-es, but how in thunder
does l. 90 without any windl"
"Ah," said the wag, THAT is the beauty
of this invention-;hat is what | got the
patent on"
'You," cried the rancher, and he sur
veyed the wag from hei to foot with an
expression of mingled awe and admira.

"Most assuredly. Any fool can get up

you don't always have wind, and often
when YOU want water wOrst-when your
thirsty crops are all perishing for want Of
water-there is no wind and your pump

And SO you should, young man-so
