Objects of Interest In India.

One Of the principal objects OF inter
est in India to the stranger is the temple
of worship. You can enter and witness
their worship Of the various idols with
which their temples are adorned, and to
which they are consecrated, by paying
trihe to the usher. He will then take
you to every point Of interest, and ex-
plain to you the meaning Of what other
wise would seem senseless devotion.
He will show you also the other temples
and instruct you in their peculialities
and the weird legends concerning them.
Near one Of the temples is the old car Of
Juggernaut. upon which the poor vic
tins Of long ago used to be broken, and
under whose ponderous wheels many
wretched victim has been crushed to
appease the anger of the gods.
Among the other points Of interest is
the river Ganges, worshiped as sacred
by the natives, and called by them the
goddess Gavgn. Pilgrimaees are made
to particular places ON its shores, ablu-
tions performed, the dying exposed, the
dead thrown in, infants frequently sacri-
feed. This river is replete with inter
est from its source to its mouth. Rising
as it does among hills Of eternal snow
in the Himalaya mountains, and sweep
ing down distance of 1900 miles to
the Bay Of Bengal, it forms the most ex-
tensiye delta in the whole world. max

Skeleton Of an Indian Chief in Armor.

Some time ago, some boys while play
ing in the rear of the town hall at East
Machias, discovered what appeared to
be the burial place of an Indian. The
remains have recently been exhumed
and are, perhaps, the most interesting
ever discovered in Maine. They are
evidently those of chief. A copper
band nearly two inches wide encircled
the head. To the right ear, which was
dried and well preserved, were attached
ornaments of copper two and one-half
inches long by one wide. A part Of the
scalp was also preserved, showing the
long black hair peculiar to the Indians.
Upon the breast rested an iron knife
completely oxidized. A piece Of the
skin with the imprint Of the knife was
also found. The face was covered with
mat made OF the leaves of the cattail
rush. Birch bark was used to enveloI
the head, while the whole body was
wrapped in o moose skin Of which the
hair and few fragments remained upon
the breast. Outside Of this skin was Q
copper breast-plate sixteen or seventeen
inches long. There was also found
triangular hatchet, like those used b.
the early French settlers Captain JOIN
Smith mentions such hatchets in tn
hands OF the sayages.

ing and unmaKmg yearly thousand OF
acres Of ground. According to an an
cient legend this delta was formed by the
god silva, who, squeezing the water
through his hair, let it run down
through his fingers, thus forming the
innumerable streams that divide the
delta. This delta begins at distance
Of 400 miles from the seq, forming
perfect wilderness Of creeks and rivers,
and during the wet season is almost en-
tirely inundated. 1t is navigable from
Hurdwas, but above Cawnpore only for
river crafts and passenger steamers, but
below Allahabad for large vessels. A
large amount of traffic is conducted on
its waters. The Island Of Elephants
derives its name from tho gigantic stone
figure of an elephant which formerly
stood upon its shores. II is situated in
the harbor Of Bombay, seven miles from
the city, and contains several very re-
markable ancient cave temples, cut in
the solid rock and adorned with numer-
GUS sculpturcd figures Of the Hindoc
mythology. The largest of these cave
temples is 1873 feet long. and is supported
by twenty six pillars. The island is si1
miles in circumference, and always o.
interest to travellers.

Interesting Statistics.

Statistics published concerning the in
accommodation of the various parts
of the world give some very interesting
information.
In 1865 the number of letters sent by
mail in all parts of the world was $780,
100000. In 1877 the number was in
creased to 1920, 100000, an average OF
II, 900, 900 a day, or 1913 each second. OF
these Europe contributed 3,036, 900, 900,
America 760,000,000, Asia $50, 900, 900,
Africa 20, 900, 900, and Australia so, 000,-
900. Taking the latest estimate of the
worlds population q, 400, 900, OOO as
correct, the average number OF letters to
each person i'll the world sent by mail
was three.
These statistics also give the length OF
the sea and land telegraph lines as 49,
500 miles. In this is not included double,
triple, &C., lines. There were $4,000
telegraph stations, and the number OF
telegraph messages sent during the
wear was between ITO, 1000, 900 and ILL.,
100000, an average of 100000 messages
n day, 10, 67l an hour, and 2l2 min
ute.
A conception of the value of the pos
tai service and of the telegraph may be
had from these figures, and the use OF
both is increasing daily. One wonders
how in the world we ever got along
without the advantages Of the present
day.

Skipping Hard Places.

Boys, want to ask you how you think
conaueror made out who went through
q country he was trying TO subdue and,
whenever he found fort hard to take,
let it alone. Don't you think the enemy
would buzz wild there, like bees iii
live, and when he was well into the
heart of the country don't you fancy
they would swarm out and harass him
terribly
Just so, I want you to remember, will
it be with you, il you skip over the
hard places in your lessons and leave
them unlearned you have left an en-
envy in the rear that will not fail TO
harass you and mortify you times with
out number.
"There was Just little bit Of my
Latin I hadn't read, said avexed student
to me, "and it was inst there the pro-
fessor had to call upon me ut examina-
ton. There were Just two or three ex-
amples l had passed over, and one Of
these was asked to do on the black
board"
The student who Is not thorough is
never well at his ease he cannot forget
the skipped problems, and the con.
seriousness OF his deficiencies makes him
nervous and anxious.
Never laugh at the slow, plod&ne
student; the time will surely come
when the laugh will be turned. II
takes time to be thorough, but it mort
than pays. Resolve when YOU take III

A Sweet Thing Docs 1t up Brown.

A curbstone broker while standing in
the door of q livery stable on Sixth
street, addressed strange young lady
as "You sweet thing" The sweet
thing turned on her heel as quick as o
fash and struck the insolent fellow such
blow with her parasol that she sent
his cigar flying out OF his mouth. A
second crash with the sunshade knocked
the conceit so completely out Of the
curbstone fend that he yelled for mercy,
and dashed away toward one Of the horse
stalls for protection. The enraged young
lady followed the coward and democrat
lied Spectator and banged him at every
bound, until in desperation he threw
himself on the floor and almost kicked
the plaster off the ceiling In his efforts
to ward off her blows. After beating the
fellow until she was tired, the "sweet
thing" folded the shreds OF her parasol
around its bent and battered ribs and
walked away, followed by the prayers
and admiring glances Of every one who
had witnessed the affair.-San Fran
cisco Chronicle.
