A decided novelty in the art line has been
placed on exhibition at the Woman's In
dustrial exchange, a series Of etchings on
fungi. This fungi grows on the banks of trees
in the great northern woods. 1t presents a
surface of a delicate cream-like tint, under
lying which is a rich bronze. BY deity and
artistically removing this surface with a
sharp-pointed instrument the bronze is ex-
posed in beautiful contrast to the natural sur
face, and can be wrought into almost any
effect by one acquainted with the work. The
series on exhibition at the Woman exchange
were made by Mrs. Beatrice Wilson, an artist
of Florence, Wis. They are pretty novelties
and combine artistic merit and oddly. One
scene, a group of deer, and another, depicting
a castle in the distance and a terrace APP
proach, are especially worthy of notice and
are attracting a good deal of attention
among the lovers of unique art.

How Flies Ate an Iceberg and Lib
Grated n Vessel.

"Don't think l ever mentioned 1t, did Ir
said the nautical cop. "Let me see-I think
it was in the fall of 1865. Our vessel was ice
bound on the coast of Siberia, and off to lee
ward, and about 200 yards was an iceberg
about thirty feet high. 1t was just about
noon-time, and the sun was shining brightly.
/ had taken my trick at the wheel, and was
lying in the fo'castle, when the mate came
running forrerd and woke me up. Turn out
you lubber,' said he, If you want to see tho
greatest thing you ever saw in your life.
There is a big cloud of i~ce-flies coming down
from the north, and we'll be sure to get out of
here inside the next hour / hadn't the
least idea what the mate meant, but l obeyed
orders, and scrambled up on deck.
II looked over the starboard bow, and away
up north l could see what appeared to be a
big black patch in the blue sky. As it came
nearer l saw that the cloud was composed OF
millions and millions of little blue-bodied
flies, with long wings and web feet. 4 hope
to goodness they don't skip the berg said
the captain, looking at the flock with bis glass,
'or we're good to stay another week, and if
by Jove,' he continued, they've struck it.
This remark was caused by the fact that tho
cloud had settled on the iceberg. Now, sir,
what do you think happened Why, dog
gone my buttons if that cloud of flies didn't
eat up every speck of that berg inside OF
thirty-eight minutesl Yes, sirl There
wasn't enough left to make a glass OF lemon

go without any trouble "How was it pos.
sible for the flies to avoid being frozen to
deathT' asked the listener. "I'm not a puzzle

Greeley's New Yorker, for June =, 1888,
contained the following:
Pennsylvania-The following account OF
the origin of the name Of Pennsylvania is ex.
tracted from a letter written by William
Penn, its founder, dated Jan. 5, 1881:
"This day, after many waitings, watchings,
solicitings, and disputes in council. my coun.
try was confirmed to me under the great seal
OF England, with large powers and privilege,
by the name Of Pennsylvania-a name the
king would give it in favor of my father. !
chose New Wales, being a billy country; and
when the secretary, a Welshman. refused 70
call it New Wales, 1 proposed Sylvania, and
they added Penn to it, though l was much
opposed to it, and went to the king TO have
it struck out He said it was past, and he
would take it upon him; nor could 20 guineas
move the under secretary to vary the name;
for 1 feared it might be looked on as a vanity
in me, and not as a respect in the king to my
father, as it really was.p

They Lacked Expression
TPhiladalnbia Call

The drill instructor of an old English regi-
ment-one Of the old stamp of martinez ser
geants-who was tho terror of every recruit
and the remorseless tyrant of the awkward
squad, was putting a firing party through the
funeral exercise. Having opened the ranks
50 as to admit of the passage of the supposed
cortege between them. the instructor ordered
the men to "rest on their arms reversed. I"
Then, by way of practical explanation, he
walked slowly down the lane formed by the
two ranks, saying as he moved: "Now, 1 am
the corpsei Pay attention. Having reached
the end of the party, he turned around, re-
garding them steadily with a scrutinizing
eye for q moment or two, and then remarked
in a solemn tone of voice: Your 'ands is
right and your 'eads is right, but you 'aven't

A SLEEPY
A Theatrical Deity Goes to sleep on
the Spectacular stnge-

a-
Ieander Richardson in Detroit Times
In a scene OF ''Orpheus and Eurydice," a
burlesque contemplate to listen to but be-
witching to look at, a large party of gods and
goddesses are disclosed asleep or Mount
Olympus high. They are bestowed on
heecy clouds with jagged wooden edges
their poses are as artfully u~nconven-
tional as the previous nights carousal
on cody nectar is supposed to have left
them, and their countenances in mimic slum-
Der are artistically composed. A score Of
chorus girls maintain their fast-asleep atti-
tudes during the singing Of several number
by principal characters. The other night the
realistic aspect Of one Of them puzzled me.
The sweet smile which prevailed among her
companions gave way in her instance to per-
feet vacuity of expression; her eyes were
shut tight, without any evidence of sly peep
ing, her Redeemed mouth was dropped open,
with no affectation of pout or shipper; and
her legs and arms had the appearance Of
genuine laxity. At first l took all this for
conscientious acting. Then she let her wand
fall, and l doubted If she was awake. Next
she wriggled and ~snuggled down, as though
the roughness of the couch and the thinness
of her clothes made her deplore the INSULT
cheney of bedding, and l was sure she was
asleep. Her failure to stir when the rest of
the goddesses were awakened by the rise of the
lime-light sun was entirely convincing.
"Histl histl" came a cautious voice from
the wings.
She turned half over.
"Punch her; punch her" was the prompter's
command, quite audible in the forward rows
Of the parquette.
A poke of Jove's scepter brought her to a
sitting posture. For a moment she was
dazed. TIL audience laughed, and she was
thereby brought to her senses; but the merri-
ment was to most of the observers a result Of
what they supposed was the girls acting, and
ridicule was averted. A midnight supper
of mortal reality had doubtless caused that
goddess nap.
