How Long May Man Live.

II was Professor Hufeland's opinion that
the limit of possible human life might be
set down at two hundred years, and this on
the general principle that the life Of crea-
ture is eight times the years Of its period Of
growth. That which Is quickly formed
quickly perishes, and the earlier complete
development Is reached the sooner bodily de-
cay ensues. More women reach old age than
men, but more men attain remarkable long
eyity than women. Horned animals live
longer lives than those without horns, fierce
longer than tjmid, and amphibious longer
than those which inhabit the air. The vora-
cious pike exists, 1t Is said, to All age of one
hundred and fifty years the turtle Is good
for one hundred years or more, aud among
birds the golden eagle Is known to have
lived nearly two hundred years, while the
sly and somber crow reaches the venerable
age of century. Passing up In the scale Of
life to man, and skipping the patriarchs, we
find many recorded instances Of longevity
among the classic Greeks and Romans.
Pliny notes that In the reign Of the Emperor
Vespasian, in the year 10, there were one
hundred and twenty-four men living In the
limited area between the Apennines and the
Pc Of one hundred years and upward, three
of them we're one hundred and forty, and
four over one hundred and forty. Cicero's
wife lived to the age of one hundred and
three, and the Roman actress, Luceja, played
In public as late as her one hundred and
twelfth year. Coming down TO more recent
times, the most notable authentic instance
Of great age Is that of Henry jenkins, OF
Yorkshire, England, who died In 1910, one
hundred and sixty-nine years old. He was
. fisherman, and NJ the age of one hundred
easily swan across rapid rivers. Another
historic case Is that of Thomas Parr, OF
Shropshire, Englan., day lsborer, who
lived to the age of one hundred and fifty
two years. When more than one hundred
and twenty he married his second wife, and
till one hundred and thirty he could swing
the scythe and WELD the fail with the best
Of his fellow-laborers. In his one hundred
and ffty-second year Parr went to London
TO exhibit himself to the King. II proved
an unlucky visit, for, violating the abstemi-
GUS habit Of . century aud half, the old
man Toasted so freely Of the royal victuals
that he soon died, merely Of plethora. On
examination his internal organs proved TO be
In excellent condition, and there was no
reason why he shoula not have lived much
longer, save for his unfortunate taste of royal
hospitality. Professor Hufeland's roll Of
centenarians includes many more remarka-
BILE cases.

The African Lions.

A recent traveller in equatorial Africa
says: aLions are one of the dangers be-
tween Zanzibar and the great lakes. They
somstims hunt games In packs Of SIX or
eight. Some animals show fight against
them successfully. Lions never venture to
attack the adult elephant, and even avoid
the buffalo, unless they are more than two
TO one. In general they do not attack cara
sans, aud ever In daytime. Al most .
hungry lion may spring upon and csrry OF .
straggler while passing through the brakes
and jungles. But II IN otherwise = night.
When lions scent the caravan from afar, par
tIculsrly II It contains goats or beasts of
burden, they approach and announce their
vicinity BY terrific roars. Nevertheless, In
well enclosed camp there % no danger; the
lions never attempt to clear the obstacles,
and marksmen from behind the palisades
can pick them on with almost unfailing aim.
There Ii danger only when The camp = re-
completely enclosed, or when those inside
- out % attack them."

Peaceful Braves Who Take Kindly 70

Persons living on the eastern seaboard
often form wrong estimates Of the condition
Of the Indians on this coast. Danger Is sup
posed to exist At all points west OF certain
meridian. The number of Indians In Wash
ington Territory Is given ut 1s,48S. Except
here and there q small settlement of inof-
fensive Indians, all are upon reservations
set apart by the Government Of the United
States, and superintended by agents. The
reservations are chosen from the best lands
In the Territory. Upon some of them are
churches and schools with capable teachers.
The great body OF these Indians have made
q rapid advance I'm civilization. Hundreds
have discarded the blanket and moccasn,
and now wear the garb Of the whites, have
comfortable houses, good horses, cattle and
other domestic animals, raise vegetables and
grain for the market, speak with tolerable
accuracy the English language, are civil and
iaw-abiding, with the exceptional instances
where they have obtained intoxicants. The
laws Of the United States are very stringent.
They forbid and punish severely the sale OF
liquor to Indians. The descendants Of many
Of the Indians now ON the reservations will
become valuable members Of the commun-
lily rs intelligent farmers and artisans.

Nine. Blanc.


Nine. Blanc, Of Monaco, has gone to rest.
Her husband preceded her few days since.
I'm early life, says . foreign correspondent,
III. Blanc and his spouse kept small dry
goods store In Paris In an obscure street, near
the depot Of the Chelnin de Fer du Nord.
To them gaming had irresistible charms.
These charms were enhanced by the fact
that luck was always In their favor. Money
flowed I'm freely, and I'm q short time NJ. and
Nine. Blanc found themselves at the head Of
the notorious gambling hell at Monte Carlo,
Monaco, the only den Of the kind now re-
manning In Europe. The suppression, In
1872, of the green cloth-clad tables OF the
German watering places, followed by the
bouncing of NJ. Fama, nm ex-priest, and now
proprietor Of Nice theatre, from the shell"
at Saxon-les- Bains, Canton Valois, Switzer-
land, on the 3lst of December, 1876, greatly
strenthgened the position Of the Blanc fam
lily. Lovers of roulette aud rouge-et-noir
from all parts of the world repaired to
Monaco, and NJ. Blanc departed this life
with the satisfaction Of knowing that his
family was one Of the best provided for In
the old world. The Blanc family not only
maintained themselves on the failings of
others, but have been the main supporters of
the smallest principally In the world-a
spot second TO none In beauty, which has for
a thousand years past claimed as its head
scion of the historical house of Grimaldi.
OF the dead nothing but good. The benevo-
lence of Nine. Blanc was acknowledgements
on the principal of the man who stole new
pair Of shoes and gave away his old ones,
"pour ramour du bon Dieu," but because
she considered 1t right to be charitable.
Many a family may have been beggared In
the casino Of Monte Carlo, many q suicides
grave may have been dug there, but many an
aching heart has been made glad and many
an empty stomach filled by the generosity of
Mime. Blanc. She leaves three children, the
present M. Blanc. of Monte Carlo, whose
schemes for recnperating the finances of the
fast-toppling Ottoman empire by the estab-
lisbment at Constantinople and in Egypt of
gaming tables similar To those Mt Monte
Carlo, and of the profits OF which the Sultan
was to have a big share, is well known, and
two daughters, one Of whom Is married to
Prince Radziwill, son Of the celebrated Aus
trian diplomat of that name, while the
other Is the wife Of Roland Bonaparte,
son of the VIGOROUSLY wayward Pierre Bon
aparte. Although each daughter received a
dowry of 100000 and the son huge for
tune before the death Of his parents, Mime.
Blanc's treasury was not depleted. She is
aid to have left fabulous sum of money,
no inconsidersble portion of which has come
out Of the pockets Of crazy Americans.

Gun Ships for China.


An important addition has just been made
to the feet of gun vessels with which the
Chinese Navy has been supplied during the
last few years. Already eleven vessels have
been sent out from time to time, differing In
details, but uniting the popularity of extra
ordinary gun power I'm diminutive craft. The
two new vessels differ essentially from the
preceding eleven in combining great speed
with great gun power. They resemble the
others, however, In being wholly unar,nored.
Their displacement Is 1850 tons. They are
built of steel and are propelled by twin
screws, driyen by compound engines Of, to-
gether, $500 indicated horse power. They
each carry two Cotton 10-inch breech load
ing guns, mounted upon centre pivots, one
forward and one aft. Each of these heavy
guns commands a nearly all around fire.
The charge of the guns Is $50 pounds Of
powder, and the weight Of the projectile 400
pounds, the penetrative power equal to pier
cling Is inches of solid, unbacked iron plate.
The carry, beside, In each, four 40-pounder
breech-loading guns, two 9-pounder breech-
loading guns, twosNordeueldts and four
Gatlings, and, furthermore, two steam cut
tiers fitted with spartorpedoes. The engines,
boilers, magazines and machinery are entire
ly below the water line, and are further pro-
tected by steel plate under water deck, the
space between which and the main deck is
divided into numerous water-tight compart-
ments, In which coal Is stored, thus adding
TO the protection afforded by the deck. Hy-
draulic steering gear1s provided and placed
below the water line, with alternative hand
gear and tiller. The vessel Is also armed
with 4 formidable steel, knife-edged spur,
or ram. The coal bunkers take 300 tons OF
coal, and with that quantity the vessels can
run continuously at speed Of about 8 knots
for four weeks together. s.# sss
Without claiming too much for these YES
sells, 1t should be remarked that the penetra-
tive power and range of their guns measured
by the accepted official standard, exceed
those Of any gun yet anoat, except those Of
the English Infexible and the Italian Duilo.
No unarmored ship that carries guns can be
compared for moment with them, and no
unarmored ship equals them In speed. The
nearest Is the Duilo, Of nine times their size.
Thus their vastly superior gun power would
make them most formidable to the largest
unarmored vessels, and their superior speed
and greater range aud power of artillery
would enable them to in some measure cope
with an iron-clad, since they could ordinari-
ly choose their own distance, and from their
diminutiveness would be very hard to hit
nor would . single shot by any means disa.
BILE them. owing to the underwater aud
other protection given to their most vita
parts.

THAT DAY.

That only come In June;
When hearts breathe forth instructive
praise
And pulses are In tune;
And DER the hin and Ger the lea

That day.

Or flowers eer half so sweet,
And meier n road so smoothly white
Did lie meath trees that bent to greet
As where we met, my lover and l,
Met once in spite Of our destiny,
That day.
Twas but glimpse Of the "might have
been,'
A clasp of hands DER years,
A brief forgetting of worldly din,
A precedent of tears;
And life with its ceaseless ebb and flow
Closed DER two lives their veal and woe,
That day
Yet twill stand forth on memory's green,
Marked with n snow-white stone;
Twill come to me in the land unseen
When each shall claim his own;
And we can wait, my, love and /,
Holding in trust from memory

A LONG RACE.

Fourteen Thousand Miles Made by Two Rival
steamers-six Hours Difference in Time.
The English steamer Lord of the Isles,
that arrived from Japan by way Of the Suez
Canal last Friday, laden with tea, sailed
from Yokohama May "a, the Queens BIRTH
day. On the same day the Gleneirtay, an
other English steamer, left the same port,
and race of $4,000 miles for the New York
tea market was begun by the two vessels.
Heavy bets were made at Yokohama sud At
Chinese ports were they stopped, and In ev-
cry case odds were given In favor of the
elementary, as she had won similar races.
In this case, however, some of the engineers
on the Lord of the Isles had money at stake,
which may account for extra efforts on their
part. ... ..- .-....... .....

cover the smokestack were made by waves
that broke over the vessel. We had good
