4 Dozen Watcrspouts in One Day.

A gentleman who recently arrived in
New York in the steamer Aloo has the
following story to tell At about
half.past = o'clock one afternoon Cap
tain Williams and a number Of the
officers, crew and passengers were aston
ishcd hy the appearance Of watcrspout.
have seen this remarkable phenomenon
before, but never on such a gigantic
scale. The first one we saw wa about six
miles away. 4 stream Of water seemed
to rise from the level Of the ocean, and
at the same time another stream de
scended from the heavens and depended
from dark raincloud like q great icicle.
The two streams met about midway
between sky and water, and then began
TO move rapidly to the eastward. The
base of the watcrspout appeared to be
nearly quarter of a mile wide, and
then il ttapered toward the middle into an
almost imperceptible line. Suddenly it
broke, and there was mighty heaving
and tumbling about OF the waters in the
vicinity. We saw twelve spouts that
afternoon during some heavy rain
squalls. AT one time | saw four OF them
at once. They looked like the lofty
spires of cathedral. Through our
glasses we could see that the tops of tho
spouis were lost in the clouds. II is a
scientific fact that the discharge of
cannon in the ncighborhood will al
ways cause these water columns to
break. The passengers insisted that
the discharge of pistol would
create sufficient vibration in tho air TO
destroy spout which was a mile away.
/ loaded my revolver and fred twice AZ
the spout. At the second shot Il broke
/ don't know whether ii was the result
Of the firing or not. but at least II is
remarkable coincidence. Every time :
spout burst, the top part Of Il seemed
TO vanish into vapor. but the under
part would rock the sea for miles. and
our vessel experienced tho violent eff
fects. IN fact, all thai afternoon the
water was disturbed. Several times il
was thought we would have TO change
our course, but the apouts did not APP
proaoh too near for safety.

An Antcdiluvlan Monster,

There have recently been discovered
in Siberia the bones OF an antcdiluvian
rhinoceros, which may give us an idea
Of what kind Of people and animals in
habited our globe in ages gone by, and
what sort Of winter they had TO endure.
This rhinoccrog was taller than the
modern beast 10y some six 10 seven
feet. 1t was discovered comfortably
imbcdded in the banks OF one Of the
atlluents Of the Tana river. When the
bank first broke away the whole skele-
ton stood there in magnificent proper
tions, revelation Of lost age Pro
fessors Of palrontology are rather
scarce in Siberia, and so it happened
that the river was allowed to wash the
old monster away. It's head and one
foot have been rescued, however, and are
now in st. Petersburg. Besides It's su-
pcriority in size, this ancient monster had
the advantage OF being clothed in q thick
coat Of long hair, which enabled it to
live among iccbcrgs and in a tcmpcra-
turc that would have frozen the cflcm-
mate Polar bear and made an icicle OF
the cunning Arctic fox. There was a
period when the north OF Europc-Eug-
land, France and Germany were in
habitcd by monsirous be usts, birds and
reptiles. The fabulous roe has been
discovered in New Zealand, q bird
measuring thirty feet from head to
claws. The sea serpent is no fiction.
Professor owen constructed, on re-
liable scientific basis, reptile that
would measure some sixty feet in
length. A grca, portion Of the ivory
used today is the product OF an extinct
species buried IN Northern Asia, which
the Siberian "rcsuFTcctiouists sell
20 Russian traders There lived,
these giants in the age Of silence,
twilight and snow. In Australia q
huge marsupial was living, compared to
which the kangaroo is a raj il hoped
about tn" country IN the company OF
womhats az large a. bear, and these
monsters found their enemy and con-
qucr8r in a huge monster, the pouchcd
lion. Gigantic hcIbiverous dragons,
double tuskcd reptiles. crawlcd leisurely
along the rich pasture lands Of South
Africa. Life was long in those days
there was no need for the beasts to
hurry themselves, they roamed over
whole continents in search Of food.
Our age Of smaller physical develop
ments, but Of more enlightened intel
lcct, has gathered the scattered bones
OF these monsters and restored them 70
their pristine shape and assigned them
their place in history. The Hour.

Religious News and Notes.

Ex-Governor Judge Joel Parker, of
New Jersey, has joined the Presbyterian
church ut Freehold.
1t appears that there are twenty-five
distinct Methodist denominations in the
world, with total OF 1890, ,7SO mem.
bers.
The African Methodist Episcopal
church claims that it has 3S7, ,jG6 mem
bers and probationers, against 215,O 900
reported in 1879.
The First Protestant church in Albu-
querque, New Mexico, has just been
opened. 1t Isl q Congregational society,
the only one of that order in the Terri
tory.
A Roman Catholic paper says that
had the church retained all her chill
dren there should now be in the country
from $1,000, 900 to 25,OO0,OOO members
of that church, whereas there are now
less than 100000. 1t attributes the
great losses to the influence of the pub
lie schools.
The Baptists of South Carolina, ex-
elusive Of the colored churches, have
$50 churches and 3d. members.
There were 4,29S baptisms last year,
and Sl0,256 was raised for missions,
education, etc. In several parts Of the
State white ministers hold Ministers
institutes for the benefit of colored
preachers.
Seventy-nine OF the one hundred
Congregational home missionaries in
Kansas report that they arc serving l37
churches and ninety-seven out-stations.
During the last year they organized
fifty-three Sunday schools and twenty
two churches. They report 279 con-
versions and 3J2 additions to the
churches on confession of faith, and
42O by letter.
A table on the ratio of ministers to
members in various denominations
shows that in the African Methodist
church there is one minister to ever
224 members: Reformed Dutch
church, one minister to 1i7; Presby.
terian, one to III; Protestant Episcopal.
