A Singing River.

"A peculiar musical resonance. which
John Boyle O'Re!lly describes in Outino
as occurring in a sequestercd portion of
the Sus4uehanna, finds its counterpart in
the low sandy banks and marshes of the
Pascagoula river, and is accounted for
by the inhabitants of its shores in more
picturesque, if not SO practical. a manner.
Am"ns the numerous Indian legends
which have drifted back to us from the
old colonial life of our country, there are
none more Rhenish in flavor than the Oft
told legend of Pascagoula bay. Upon
calm, moonlight nights mysterious
music has been heard to issue atinteryals
from the water, and floating over it's sur
face for time, dies away in soft melo-
dious fragments. Apparently it comes
from caverns or grottoes below the bed
of the stream, and. ascending from the
water in a volume of sound, it curls
under the very keel of the travellers boat.
aud reaches the ear like the strains of a
thousand distant aolian harps.
To the wholly practical mind the
phenomenon may be accounted for in
part by the peculiar formation of the
banks of the stream. the wild rushing of
the wind through the reeds and lodges
on the shore. or the hollow indentations
in the bed of the river. Outing.

A Dainty Creature.

One day Ielound her in the drawing
room. To reach it she had walked into
the house by the front entrance, and, after
traversing corridor some forty feet lorg,
had gone through three doorways. There

much interest, getting fist one side of

How Canoes are Cut.

"Cameos are cut in this. country as
we'll as in Europe said a Baltimore
jeweler to Herald reporter. 1.-The
finest American work, which, of course,
is not by any means equal to the best
foreign work, is done in New York, and
little of it in Philadelphia. That
Americans should turn out work equal
to that of the best foreign artists is
scarcely to be expected, since cameo
cutting was almost unknown here thirty
years ago. whereas in Europe some fam
lilies i'll Florence, Rome, Paris or Naples
have pursued it as calling for half a
dozen generations. Canoes are not as
fashions come and go-but great many
persons still wear them because they are
heirlooms or relics of some departed
ancestor. A cameo is where the image
on the stone is raised above the surface :;
where it is cut in the stone it is known
as 'intaglio.' The stones generally used
for this purpose are the onyx, sardonyx,
blood stone and agate. The latter is the
hardest stone to cut. The onyx consists
of several layers, and the cameo is OBJ
tanned by cutting the figure out of the
upper layer, when it appears as raised
medallion upon the lower one. 1t is the
easiest stone TO work on.
1.-The art of ancient cameo cutting
was entirely lost during the middle ages,
and only appeared during the renais-
sance. The Romans, in my opinion, cx-
celled the Greeks in this branch of art ::
but the moderns have never approached
the ancients in accuracy of design or
finish. Look at this head of Augustus
Caesar, cut on species of agate harder
than any we know anything about. That
sort of work could not be done now. 1t
was found in Rome during some excava-
tons made a few years ago near the
capitol, and, though not much larger
than quarter of II dollar, is worth $75.
The sunken portions of the face, the
whites of the eyes, the hollows of the
cheeks, are polished. That could not
be done by any cameo cutter alive to-
day. 1t is positive proof that the cameo
is an antique. The finest specimens of
cameo cutting in the world are the 'assic
figures cut in what is known as the Man
tuan vase in the British museum. The
b'sc is cut out of a single agate, and is
seven inches high by two and half in
width"

poise the region near the tail, sis very
tough, on account of the ligaments that
run through it, the muscles that operate
the tail. 1t is proposed, l believe, to
utilize these ligaments in making glue.
Then every part of the porpoise will be
used for something. the hide, the oil and
the flesh. The skeletons are left now on
the beach, but they can be used for fer
tilizing purposes. Take some more, !"

A Blind RcDorter.

CASTOR Vassy, the enfant terrible of the
Partisan reporters, is dead. He was
miraculous fellow, says Paris letter,
who made several fortunes by puffery,
and spent them all, often lacking money
with which TO pay his washerwoman-
Some of his exploits are legendary IN
Paris, and among them is one connected
with fire at a fashionable hotel in the
Place Vendome, which is worth recount
| ing. A destructive fire is a rare event
here, and in connection with this particu-
| lar conflagration there were certain Cir
cumstances of mysterious nature which
piqued the reporters. They went to the
prefecture of police to make inquiries,
but at the prefecture everyone was mute.
They all gave up in depair, except Gas
ton Vassy, who, taking his secretary with
him, marched into the concierge's lodge
at the fashionable hotel, and seating I'M
self at the table of the astonished Ccrbe-
rus, said, blandly, but with certain
show of authority: "What is your name"
The porter was somewhat inundated and
gave up his cognomen. Whereuron Gas
ton Vassy said gravely to his secretary:
'AIr. Sheriff, just take that down"
This convinced the concierge that the
mysterious stranger must be the police
comm ssioner and so, when the impl-
dent reporter turned anew to him and
said Now, be good enough to tell us
ill you know about this affair."" he did
teIl-a story which, ampiitied into sew
eral columns in morning paper, led to
the unearth;ng of some very rich scandal
and the arrest of prominent man in the
person of the culprit who had set the
fire. Nassy took good care to be gone
before the real police commissioner came
to inquire into the ''case."
In his later years CASTOR Vassy was
blind, but went about to the theatres
and everywhere else, accompanied by
his secretary, who told him how things
looked and what was going on. and then
Nassy dictated his reports in his own in
imitable style. At the great meeting on
the Place de la Bourse the other day,
friend met him, leaning on his secretary's
arm.
"You would better go home, Vassy,"
he said, "there may be riot, and you
might be jostled."
"Oh, no." said the blind man, II
mean to stay and see the fun" CO
And so thoroughly had he become ac-
customed to seeing with his secretary's
eye that it is said he never complained Of
his affliction,

Mexican CuriOSitieS.

The National museum, says a Citv of
Mexico letter to Baltimore paper, is
situated on the northern side of the gov
eminent palace, little beyond the
building now occupied by the post
Office. On the ground floor it contains
the sacriicial stone, which is one of the
most remarkable objects of interest to
the tourist and student. 1t is nearly nine
feet high and twentyseven feet in circum-
ference. It's discovery was dueto mere
accident, having been dug out from the
main square while some work was going
Oh in December, 1891 Tradition has it,
somewhat borne out by historical data,
that upward of sixty thousand human
beings were sacrificed upon this curious
stone by the ancient Aztecs On the
same ground floor many interesting relics
of former ages may be examined Among
them are curious idols. figures and vases.
the exact origin of which cannot always
be ascertained. Here also is an image of
the Aztec war god, Huibzi-lopochtli If
any of your readers can pronounce it l
will bring them gold mine. This
image has two faces-one before and one
behind, showing that he had foresight as
we'll as hindsight. The image is as ugly
as its name The sacrificial stone be-
longed to him, and looks as though he
had used it pretty freely. We were
shown Montezuma's feather coated shield
and more Aztec idols. These would
pave Baltimore street from Broadway TO
Calvert street. They were very old
looking and their features were most vii
famous. The old Aztecs evidently cid
not have much taste in picking out their
idols. 1t is said that they had over
twenty thousand gods. The museum is
worth seeing and contains mine of the
most precious historical material.

The White Hand,

In "a small village not far from Man
chester lived young girl, named Kate
Brown, who got her living by spinning
cotton. Kate had two lovers, a tailor
and blacksmith, both very handsome,
and she dearly loved them, but she could
not marry the two, and she knew not
what to do. But one day as the two en-.
tered her cottage bright thought struck
her, and she said to them:
''By next Saturday the one who has
the whitest hand will be mine"
When Saturday arrived the two pre-
sented themselves as usual. As soon as
they were seated, Kate said:
Gentlemen, show me your hands,"
The blacksmith, who had just left off
work, pulled out his dirty, grimy hand
full of silver.
No sooner did the tailor catch sight of
the blacksmith's dirty hand than he gave
a wild cry of delight, and said:
Kate, you are mine, there is nv
hand, - putting out hand as white as
any lady's.
mo, no. I prefer the silver white
hand" replied Kate, pointing toward
the blacksmith's out-stretchca balm.

Facts About Cancers.

: Nearly every case of cancer can be
traced to some exciting cause, such as
an injury to the part, a local disease in
some of the glands or a neglected warty
growth. High living with insufficient
exercise or the neglect of the general
health conduce to it. The most gener-
ally accepted idea of the nature of the
disease is that it is the result of the NOR
bid growth or development of white
blood corpuscles, as the cells usually
found in cancer resemble these more
than any other. These cells do not in
crease and develop like the cells found
in pus and other morbid conditions, but
seem to emanate from a definite source,
and are prodoced at comparatively slow
but constantly increasing rate. The in
crease has been noticed to correspond
with the decline in general health, and
the decrease to begin with the improve.
