Col. Stevenson, Of the Bureau of
Ethnology, Washington, who has recent
ly spent several months in the west,
has brought back the largest and most
diverse collection of objects illustrat-
ing the home life, industries and re-
liglOuS custo.ns of the Pueblo Indians
ever made. In addition to the articles
in this collection (Which amount to
five car loads, and consist of pottery,
woollen fabrics, weapons and stone
impiements), photographs and colored
sketches were secured in great num-
Der Illustrating the dances, altar
scenes, games and burial customs of
the Pueblos. Many curious cave
shrincs never before visited by white
men were explored, places to which for
centuries the ZuniS have been in the
habit of MAX ng annual pilgrimaees
with grea. ceremony to deposit idols,
plume sticks and the skulls and bones
of sacred animals. A pack train party
visited, under the guidance of Zunian
priests, a curious salt lake, seventy
five miles south of the Pueblo, whence
the supply of salt used by the tribe is
obtained and from this point the tray
elers rode $50 miles west to a lake,
where, according to Zunian belief, the
departed spirits of the Pueblos are all
transported. To the latter place the
guides could not be induced to 90
though they pointed it out from a dis
lance. The lake, which is but few
hundred yards in diameter, is sur
rounded bycurious conical hills, form
e. by the deposit of matter from in.
Vulnerable springs. The springs ara
now dry, except such as are beneath
the surface of the water, but some of
the cones have open cavcrns into
which one can penetrate by covered
way two or three hundred feet. .-NeJ

The era we are passing through will
be distinguished in the future for its
earthquakes that have been disturbing
sections of the earth's surface, and In
some cases altering the very shore
lines. These throes Of the earth have
been called vital, as they are a display
of energy on the part of our planet
itself. In one region it takes the form
of volcanic eruption; in another, of
earthquakes. 1t is now tolerably well
settled that these perturbations of tho
earth's crust are due to the shrinkage
caused by the planet losing a portion
of its internal heat. AS every school,
boy knows, heat expands every material
object upon which it acts, from water
that is turned into steam to iron which
enlarges very sensibly at white heat.
For countless ages our planet has been
parting with its heat. In doing SO
the crust Of the earth shrnks and
mountains are upheaved, shore lines
altered, and seas and oceans become
deepened. These recurring shrinkages
produce heat in the localities most
affected, that explodes in the form of
volcanoes, or produces earthquakes
where such vents are not known. 1t
is worth noting that in Spain several
thousand persons were killed recently
by the earthquakes. Indeed, the
destruction Of life from time to time
in the Spanish peninsula from earth.
quakcs has been very great. In 1855
Lisbon was destroyed, when $4,000
persons were swallowed up by the
earth. The destruction of life has
never been so great in the Italian
peninsula, because Vesuvius and
Ntna furnished vents for the subter-
rancan heats. There are no volcanoes
in Spain. The series of eruptions that
have attracted the attention of man.
kind lately began with the great
earthquake at Krakatoa. This was in
the far Pacific. The day afterwards, a
series of mountainous waves washed
the shores of California, showing that
the volcanic action affected the greater
part of the bed Of the Pacific Ocean.
Since then we have had numerous
earthquakes in different parts of the
globe, including the northeastern part
of the United States. Scientists,
however, agree that California will
always be more liable than any other
State in the Uuion to these disturbances

A HRusho at Yale.

The freshman has hard time of it
the first few months of his career, says
an articlein CaSSelES Magazine on Yale
College. At night he is likely to be
disturbed by call from half a dozen
sophomores, and be ANONYMOUSLY put
to bed, or compelled to sing theorem
of Euclid to the tune Of yankee
Doodle" If he refuses it goes still
worse with him. His only revenge is
TO do the same things next year, not to
his present tormentors but to the
poor freshmen who come after him.
This is 'hazing," a childish custom
very prevalent years ago, and by no
means dead in American colleges to-day,
though l am glad to say tits surely, if
slowly, disappearing. The great event
of the first term was the "rush," recent
y abolished, I believe, by the authori-
lies, like many another good old college
custom. The rush was a trial of
strength between the two under
classes, allied and allotted by the two
upper the Juniors attaching themselves
to the freshmen, the seniors advising
The sophomores as their historic allies.
The rush took place in a large park,
Vome distance from the college, and
and was witnessed by immense crowds,
the number of carriages and fair faces
reminding one of an impending polo
match rather than brutal college
sport. To those who do not know
what rush is, let me say that the
p1odus operandj is simply this: The
Two classes, mastering perhaps a
hundred and twenty each, are drawn
up facing each other about fifty yards
apart in solid phalanx, eight men
abreast and fifteen deep. At a given
signal they advance, and with slow
and measured tread approach each
other until the opposing armies meet.
Then there is a terrible and mighty
pushing No blows are struck. The
'front.' ranks with fists drawn back to
the armpits, and with one long inhala.
ton, bear the brunt of the attack. The
class that can push the other back, can
crush it off the field, is the victor OF
the day, The sport is rough, and
though nominally friendly trial of
strength, it of necessity often excited
otter feelings, and frequently led to
something more violent and dangerous
tnan pushing, But it was a curious
sight, to witness, and the breathlcss
nu5h that fell upon the multitude be-
fore the little armies met was such as
YOU might fancy preceded the gladia-
toria combats in the days of ancient
Rome.

Mr.. MARYLAND, who was the head of

think would have sworn if he could.
One was while we were at Young's
Point, with Headquarters on the
steamboat Magnolia. Two of the
staff officers had been sent North under
orders, leaving their rooms on the boat
vacant. General Grant invited two
officers on board one night for consul
tation. During the consultation a
violent rain-storm came up and Cen
cral Grant asked these officers to re-
main on board over night, saying that
he had two rooms and that it would
be more pleasant for them to stay
there than to go to their camp in the
stoIm. The time for retiring arrived
and the officers were shown t. their
rooms. When the doors were opened,
however, it was found that the beds
were occupied by the colored servants
of the officers VINO were absent. Gene
raj Grant was very angry, but his in
dignation did not fad vent in oaths;
he merely ordered these servants out
on shore into the rain, and in a short
time, his Indignation having cooled,
