VARIETIES OF sHAD.
An Old Fisherman on Fishing.

EYES," said an old fisherman at Glou-
cester, I'm an old shadder or Wouldn't
be here awaitin' for shad flies. The
seasons commencin' and we're git
tin EN- from Caroliny now, $11.50 q
piece and so on up and down. accordin'
to size. Shad don't git up here afore
the last of April. You'll know it bv
the shad flies. just as soon as you see
them buzzin' around you'll smell tho
fried roe. Yes. used to be regular
professional shadder. Why, bless you,
I've been a-shaddin' up the Amazon
River, but the regular shad business is
on our coast, and if you'll git on tho
old Dominion steamers bound for Flor
ida in the Fall you'll find tho steerage
full of shadders goin' down for the
season-rough lookin' men to see, but
the solid grit of Jersey, Philadelphy
and Connecticut, and, though they go
half rates, they often have thousand
dollars worth of seins and shad nets
aboard. They divides up generally,
some goin' to the St. Marys and the
rest to the ST. Johns This is about as
far South as they git, as just below
there is no regular way of shippin'
North. Shad fishin' in the st. Johns
commences about December l, and I
can tell you it's lively there for few
months.
'Shad are curious fish and hard to
git at, but I've seen 'em rise to a fly
just like trout The Government has
spent q good many thousand dollars in
trying to introduce 'em into Connecti-
cut waters, where they are, of course,
found to some extent, but mills and
factories of various kinds drive 'em
out. There's one kind of shad called
the Gizzard, that the first ever caught
nearly scairt the life out of me. l got
little seine round about 200, and the
minute l got 'em above water there
commenced the durndest whirrin' and
whizzin' you ever heard. First l
thought somethin' was aflyin' over
head, but it was them fish. every one
of 'em talkin' away for dear life. 1
felt more like chuckin' of 'em back
You can tell 'em by the spine on their
backs. But the finest shad in the
world, continued the old man, getting
up and opening a box, sis the Jew
fish. There is one of the scales" he
added, handing out a magnificent scale
as large as the open palm and gleam-
ing like a new silver dollar. = 'There
amt one man out of ten but what
reckons that the silver is poured on to
it; but it amt, and is as natural as
life. But the fish-why just imagine
a fish six to eight feet long, shaped like
a shad and blazin' all over with them
silver scales. When they jump out of
the water they re like streak of moon
light coming through a keyhole.
They're so powerful that there's only
one man in the United States that has
ever shown the spirit to catch one with
rod and line. His name is Jones and
he lives in Philadelphia. In the St.
Johns, when a jew fish takes hold,
why. you want to haul in the anchor
and let 60, and he'll haul you for al
he's worth. I've seen one tip over q
small boat. And jump Why, they
jump into the air twenty feet. No,
they amt up to a shad in way of taste,
the flesh bein' q little coarser, but you
wouldn't call Jew flesh bad, I can tell

The Doctrine of Christian Song.

The second Of the two great doctrines
embodied in our hymns and to which
wish now TO refer is this the unity amidst
variety in the life of the Church. The
unity Of the church shows itself in Ger
tain community of Christian song. The
church is one; the songs of the church are
the common inheritance and product of
the one church. Were there not real
unity of life there could not be such com
numity Of song. The psalms Of David are
the worlds inheritance. The dove and the
raven which fly from this nest when we
stir the leaves of the Psalter, are the birds
which every man recognizes as frequently
brooding within his own breast.
Thus stands the case with all vitalized
Christian songs. That which is too spe-
cial in its doctrine or in the experiences
which it embodies, the universal church
throws out No Christian hymn can be-
come hymn of the ages which does not
unfold thoughts and feelings common to
the universal church. 1t is hard to put
the special points of Calvinism or Arrnin-
ianism. or any other ism, definitely into a
hymn, and then get the hymn accepted by
the church.
And further, all the greatest and best
Christian songs are helpers to Christian
unity. More has been done to bring
Christians together by giving them hymns
which they could sing together than by
all Conferences, Councils and Synods. A
great evangelical alliance is this one of
Christian song. 1t is not without preg-
nant meaning that George Mcdonald
closes the preface of his Englands An
tiphon with these words: Heartily do
/ throw this, my small pebble, at the head
of the great Observation-Disclosures -

WHAT WILL BURST A GUN.-Some
strangely twisted pieces of gun barrels ex-
hibit, in most interesting fashion, says
the Philadelphia Times, the vagaries of
oyertasked gun barrels The specimens are
part of some guns burst by Captain Health,
of that city, during some protracted exper-
iments with various weapons. Five of the
barrels were burst because a ball had
stuck" near the muzzle in each case, two
gave way because about four inches of snow
was put in the muzzle, two were burst by
reason of having some wet sand at the
muzzle, and three were ruptured by mud
at the muzzle. Sportsmen often scoop up
a little mud or sand unconsciously, bang
away at game, and are then astonished to
find the gun with a ragged and shortened
barrel

Snake Worship in India.

As I walked on, men and women seemed
TO be frantic in the same degree that had
witnessed when they were pressing to the
temple of Kali at kalighat, only there
was something more ominous III the faces
of the people They did not clamor for
" backsheesh' They all seemed to be
pressing to Il small, gray, evidently ancient
temple in the distance. Thither followed.
TO my surprise, found no obstacle to my
penetrating as near as | wished to the altar
Of this temple. The image there stood
alone-a huge. five-headed serpent. This
mOnstrous cobra in stone, blackened by
timc, was the sole deity of the temple near
Daharwanga A crowd, mainly women
was PROSTATE before this weird form. 1t
vas the first time had seen serpent wor-
ship pure and simple. There was horTi-
Die splash of blood on the pavement in
front of the entrance. What poor animal
It was that had there shed its blood as an
offering TO the Old Serpent know not, but
/ know that there the human heart had
shed its pity and reason sunk lower than
the brute it Sacrificed.-[M. B. Conway, in
Philad lphia Times.

FRESH PAINT-The current belief
among householders that the smell of fresh
paint Is noxious is founded on pretty gen
eral experience, but is opposed by the be-
lief, equally current among chemists, that
lead compounds are not volatile A fact
recently brought to our notice seems to
support the domestic theory. The basis of
the useful and .popular luminous paint is
known to be sulphide of calcium. Now,
this compound, when unprotected by var
nish, glass, or some other equally imperv-
ious substance, is slowly acted on by the
acids of the air, and sulphureted hydrogen
Is evolved. which blackens lead paint.
This is we'll known, and can easily be
avoided by proper protection of the paint;
But the curious thing is that unprotected
luminous paint is found to be perceptibly
blackened by the fumes from fresh lead
paint. There seems to be only one possible
explanation of this, namely, that a surface
freshly covered with lead paint does actu-
ally emit some volatile compound of lead
We believe that many physicians could
confirm this view from their own obserya-
tons in regard to newly painted houses

A Railway Through the sahara.

In lecture delivered to the Lower Rhen-
ish Architects and Engineers ASSOCIATION
Herr Juttner lately gave some interesting
particulars on French railway projects Tor
Che northwest of Africa. The Sahara rali-
way is intended to connect AlglerS with
Timbuctoo; but the obstacles in the way
of its successful accomplishment are seri-
GUS. the construction of the 100 miles OF
railway being impeded by the climate, the
scarcity of water, the dangers arising rom
sand-storms and the hostility OF the ma
lives. The temperature of the Sahara Is
especially trying from the fact that the
NIGHTS are extremely cold. For the pur-
pose of supplying water an extensive sys-
tenn OF water pipes is spoken of which
would cost about 5000 4 mile but it Is
also remarked that there are in the Sahara
underground water courses, which, coming
into view at certain spots, form oases. 1t
Is therefore argued that artesian borings
would probably be successful so that the
pipe communication alluded to could prob
ably be confined to various points
The only detailed plans in existence re-
gariing the Sahara line are those which
affect the portion i'll Algeria-about 80
miles in length OF the remaining $50
miles about one-half would seem to have
been roughly planned on the information
OF travellers, while the projects for the re-
mainder of the line are of a vague Charac-
ter, being founded on unreliable informa-
tiOn The cost is estimated at SS0000,000,
and the whole scheme is based on the ma
terial assistance of the French Government
in its execution. The calculations Of profit
are partly founded upon the gain to be de
rived from the importation of salt into the
Soudan, where it is worth from Is to 70
cents per pound. The company working
the line would have a monopoly for the
sale OF salt, and revenue of $1,000 900 is
| cooked for from this source. The import
of various necessaries and the export OF
products of the Soudan are relied upon 70
supplement- this return in an important de
gree, the rates being based on charges OF )
| cents per ton per mile for most classes oil
gooi,, and l! cents per passenger per mile.

CHEAP TELEGRAPHY.-In Great Britain
telegram of twenty words, with the ad-
dress, can be sent to any part of the king
dom for one shilling-about twenty five
cents Of our money. On the continent
whore the Governments have control of
the telegraph, the rates are much cheaper
In Belgium and Switzerland, for instance
there are half-franc telegrams-that is
something less than ten cents of our
money-while in Paris the telegraph sys-
TEN l. supplemented by pneumatic tubes,
CARRYING postcards for half franc. The
English Government paid Gl0,000,000 for
what was worth commercially not more
than 100000; yet 50 great has been the
increase of business due to Government
control, that the shilling rate is soon to be
reduced. The address will, as heretofore,
be free; twelve cents will be charged for
six words, eighteen cents for twelve words,
and twenty-five cents las now for twenty
words Telegraphing in this country is
under corporate control, and we are
charged more than any other country on
earth- Demorest's Monthly.

MARVELLOUS INyESTIoS.-ln the opin-
ion of the eminent electrician, Professor
Houston, the practicability of the synch-
ronous multiplex telegraph system is en-
tirely assured. He expresses the opinion
that we are on the eve Of revolution in
telegraphy as marvellous, if possible, as
that which introduced the Geographic sys-
TEN. The synchronous multiplex system
is absolutely departure. The division
into circuits is based on the simultaneous
rotation of two cylinders, or disks, As they
may be termed one at each end Of line !;
a single wire constituting the main line is
thus connected, simultaneously, at both
ends, with corresponding operating irstru-
ments, and it is transferred from one in
strument to another so rapidly that the
operator or sender does not realize that the
line has been disconnected from one in
strument to another, since each operator
has always the line at his disposal, even at
the highest rate of manipulation. Re
Gently seventy-two distinct and separate
circuits have been operated on the same
line. Either the Morse or printing sys-
tenn may be used Scientific Press.

The End OF Baked Bean Banquet.

Probably as Imaginable thing As has
been seen in long time took place at
GAINESVILLE at the Grand Army reunion a
few weeks ago. There was to be a baked
bean banquet for the visiting veterans, and
half the families in town furnished Il pan
Of baked beans for the occasion, sending
them to the armorv late in the afternoon
piping hot A couple of boys, sons of a
,, soldier, were intrusted with large pan of
red-hot baked beans to take down town,
and they put the pan on hand-sled and
started. Arriving at the top Of the big
hill, where the road runs straight down
into the business street, the temptation to
ride down was too great, and the boys got
or the sled with the pan of beans in front
of them, steaming hot. They started. Ey-
cry crossing they struck u COB of beans
would fly out, and before they were half
way down the hill the boys were covered
with beans from head to foot. They
shut their eyes and let the sled
go. A girl stood BY the crossing
as they passed, and rs the sled struck a
hammock a handful of beans hit the girl
in the hair, and as the hot mass began to heat
up she felt that the hair, of her head were
HunDtreu, anu puL iler Hdilu W HeI uedu,
and when the beans burned her hand she
yelled fire and went away on gallop. A
dog ran along beside the sled and barked
at the boys, but quart of beans struck the
dog and the weather was too warm for him.
and he ran away with hot box. The
sled finally turned over, and boys beans,
and sled rolled and slid for half block,
and the street was paved with good inten-
tions and baked beans. The boys got up,
scraped the beans off their clothes, thought
the matter over a minute, when each took
hold of side of the empty pan and they
carried it down to the trmory and reported
to the committee on beans The circum-
stance was related to the soldiers and the
empty pan, the hand sled and the boys de
corated with beans created as much amuse-
ment for the old veterans As any one thing
