The Cretaa Sponge Gatherers.

The east coast of Crete is noted for its
fine sponges, and there are few trades
that require more courage and careful
training than that of the sr0nge gather
er The best quality Of - yes is found
in the Bay of SCUBA, but the boats visit
all parts of the island from east to west.
The majority of the boats are ordinary
fishing boats, three parts decked over,
and carrying one mast, with an ordinary
lug sail. They are from eighteen to
thirty feet in length and are manned by
q crew of four or five men, one of whom
is specially engaged for the purpose of
hauling, while the rest are divers. In
some cases the men own their own boats,
but generally they are hired for the sea-
son, which extends from June to the
middle of October. No wages are paid;
the remuneration consists in an equal
share of the produce of the fishing. The
profits OF good diver reach as high as
two hundred dollars season. Diving
is practiced from very early age up to
forty years, beyond which few are able
to continue the pursuit. 1t does not
appear, however, that the practice has
any tendency to shorten life, although
as the diver approaches forty he is less
able to compete with his younger and
more vigorous brother. The time during
which a Cretan diver can remain under
water depends, of course, on his age and
training. Sixty seconds is reckoned
good work, but there are rare instances
OF men who are able to stay below eighty
seconds The men on the island, how
ever, make extraordinary statements as
to the length of time their best hands
are able to remain under water, and
gravely assert that sght and ten minutes
are not impossibilities.
The mode of operation preparatory to
a dive is very peculiar and interesting.
The diver whose turn it is takes his seas
on the deck of the vessel, at either the
bow or the stern, and. placing by his
side large flat slab of marble weighing
about twenty-five pounds, to which is
attached rope OF the proper length and
thickness 1.-TWO and one-half inchesl. he
then strips and is left by his companions
to prepare himself This seems to con-
slst in devoting q certain time to clear
ing the passages of his lnngs by expec-
toration, and highly initiating them
afterward. thus oxidizing his blood very
highly by repetition of deep inspira-
lions. The operation lasts from five to
ten minutes or more, according to the
depth, and during it the operator is
never interfered with by his eompan-
ions, and seldom speaks or is spoken to,
he is simply watched by two of them,
but at little distance, and they never
venture to urge him or to distract him
in any way during the. process 1t
seems to spectator as if the diver were
going through sort of mysterious cere-
mony or incarnation. When, from some
sensation known only to himself after

Land Birds in Mid-0cean.

The appearance of some of the small
er varieties of migratory birds, such as
sparrows, swallows, doves, etc, several
hundred miles away from the nearest
land is by no means an unusual occur
renee on the ocean. About these little
erratic visitors there are some curious
and interesting facts Their appear
ance is almost always one at time,
though | have known a considerable
number, representing, perhaps, as many
different varieties, to accumulate in the
course of day. 1t is usually, though
not always, in stormy or unsettled
weather.
The first curious fact about these
birds is, that they never appear to be
tired out whereas birds are often met
With near the land with their strength
quite exhausted. A second curious fact
about them is their preternatural tame
hess where there is no cat or dog on
board, and the crew show no DISPOSE
zion to modest them, as exhibited by
their apparently seeking rather than
avoiding the presence of man.
Another curious fact about them is
the recovery of all their native wildness
ana their liis.inoei-s auaihance of man s
presence on approaching the land. Inc
first time | noticed this fact was with a
pair of olive-colored ringdoves, which
from their remarkable tameness and ia
miliarity, was led to believe had been
bred in a domestic state and perhaps on
shipboard. I kept them in the skylight
in the cabin, where they seemed to be
quite contented but on approaching
the land they became the widest of the
wild. One of them escaped and flew
away l succeeded in taking the other
into port, where l gave it its liberty.
Now, | am certain that these birds
could not have been apprised of the ap-
proach of land through the medium of
any of the ordinary senses. This GU
rious circumstance led me to notice
more particularly the habits of other
varieties of these little wanderers upon
the ocean so far from their native hab-
itat, and | find that they nearly all ex-
hibit to greater or less extent the same
curious characteristics. - George ".
Grim, in Popular Science Monthly.

Australian Gentlemen.

Australian gentlemen are manly. cor
dial fellows; more pronounced and less
reserved than our people at home. The
tone is trife more brusqe, but it has
the genuine ring in it. l think, per-
haps, that they have even more preju-
dices than we have-I do not mean per-
sonal preiudices and they are certainly
freer-spoken in the enunciation ofthem.
They are wholly without one attribute
that is discredit to so many English
men-the affectation of being oilers be-
cause of an absence of necessity for be-
ing workers. Have you leisure
CLASP" asked an Englishman of an
American, "What is that, anyhow"
Intercepted the citizen of the Union.
"A class who can afford to have no vo-
cation" exclaimed the Briton. ''Why,
certainly" responded the American
with alacrity, 1--WE call them tramps :"
1t is much the same in Australia. The
only people who let themselves afford
to have no specific object in life are the
'sundowners, as they are colonially
ton to station in the interior, secure Of
a nightly ration and bunk. Bar the
''sundowner, every Australian man
has his vocation, and would think shame
of himself to ape sorry pride of not
being industrious in it. He works like
a man and he plays like a handsome
times like boy. He is more specula-
tive than is the business man WHO'S his
home correlative; and he, therefore, may
experience greater vicissitudes OF for
tune. But he has an elasticity and a
versatility that are more American than
English, and SO copious are the oppor-
tunities of Australia that if fortune
frowns to-day she may smile tomorrow
from ear to ear In all Australian life
there remains still large out-of-door
element comprising occasional hard ex-
ercise, the recoil from which has ten
dency to make men burly, if not portly.
This is ruddier, sturdier manhood than
is ours, even in the towns. In culture,
in refinement, in manner, the Austria
| liam women are the superlors for the
most part of the Australian men; but ]
think this is so in all communities OF
which the civilization has not attained
to an exceptional degree of finished or
| anization.-44rchibdld Forbes, in Con-

He is said to have been more man
of science and learning than politi-
clan or statesman; his tastes were
quiet, his habits were retired, and al
most too simple for his position for
those who think that princes should not
forget the old saying that majesty auth
ont its erteruals is a Jest, and that they
must not be too much like other people.
This the Comte de Chambord recog-
nized, and in his home there was Just
enough of necessary etiquette to mark
the chief of the royal line. His table
had the simplicity of private home;
but all was served on massive plate, en-
graved with the heraldic fear-deI5s of
the Bour5ons. When dinner was an
nounced, the Count and Countess walked
out first and took the center places at
the dinner-table; the visitors who were
especially honored were placed on the
left of the Count and the right of the
Countess These seats of honor were
differently filled at every meal, by q
graceful innovation of the host, that all
might enjoy the privilege in turn. No
one ventured to address him, but his
kindness enabled every one to have an
opportunity Of conyersing with him. In
the case of any visitor of note, he was
honored with private interview in the
study of the Comte de Chambord, who
delighted in prolonged conversation
and free discussion of every topic. The
interview lasted during the pleasure of
the royal host, who gave permission to
retire by a significant smile and bend
motioning as if about to rise, but with
ont actually leaving his seat.

lives exactly like q private individual,

cred to be personally devoid of all am
