WE are in receipt of a generous con- sienment of poetry-nOt the variety that buds and blossoms in the springtime, but that which ripens only in the torrid rays of tropical sun. Indeed we fear that 1t was overripe when plucked, and in state of plastic decomposition. It patheticslly describes the impossible fate of a mythical yolth who wrestled with R five cent watermelon and fell martyr to his appetite. The author is apparently the Nemesis that would avenge the victory of the grave by hurl- ing this rythmetic bomb of dynamite sffiatus into unsuspecting households to disturb the domestic tranquility of the readers of the CITIZEN.

The ''Rat-TaiI'' and Other Curious Spoons

 There are many of the rat tailed spoons now so much sought by collectors. Docs the reader know what a real -rat tail is. Noi Well, then, turn over your grand mothers silver Cr any other which I0D years old Very probably you will soon come to spoon the handle of which On the back covers part of the bowl with long or narrow triangle. These spoons have some extra value for no other earthly reason except their name. The rat-taii spoon was made from about 16S0 for a century, possibly much later in America. These later American examples would be even more curious than many older Eng fish ones.
 Another type of spoon Is that with a handle running tO a point on which is a fiat circle This is called the seal spoon. They were made during the seventeenth century. The precursor of the olive spoon of the present day is found in the sO-called mulberry spoon It has a straight handle ending in a sharp point T he bowl is small and elegantly perforated. the object of this being 10 pick cut the muberries or strawberries one by one with the point, and then sprinkle pow dCred sugar on them by filling the bowl with it and shaking it over them This is -an idea" which might very well be revived Then there are the spoons with graceful. small scroll ends. mostly of the time of Queen Anne. the spoons and forks with -lobed tops. something like a clover leaf another idea which could be carried out into many leafed shapes and endless varieties of pudding forks, soup ladies, and pistol handled knives.

How Chilli l. cd Peru.


 The devastation N hich the Chilian army committed was almost equal to that of PiZzaro when he invaded the homes of the peaceful Incas. The lines of march of the Chi'ians are shown by the complete destruction of everything they could break or burn. Whole cities, villages. farms. factories. all were swept away by A malicious desire Co do as much injury as possible. regardless of the rights oi nOn- conbafants and in violation of all tho laws of civilized war.

Millehores, it's Newport. and Char Hos. it's Long Branch. the residence places of the wealthy people. anu the haunt of those who sought rest. where there were palaces as beautiful as those of Paris. and parks like the legendary gardens of Babylon, were entirely destroyed not by accident. but by dynamite and other explosives EN- ouisite marble statues now lie m fras- ments upon the ground. artistic fountains were shattered. trees were gird.ed, lrri- gating ditches destroyed. and every posi- ble vandalism was committed not only on the Peruvian property. but upon prop erty belonging 10 foreigners. whose claims for damages will amount to millions oi QOllarS more Ludu Nu4iA Nstll CNtl pay.

Power IT Music.

the Confederate aud Federal armies
were confronting each other on the
opposite bill of Stafford and SpottsYl-
vania, two bands chanced one even

course sweet music, on either bank OF
the river A large crowd of soldiers
of both armies gathered to listen to
the music, the friendly pickets not in.
terfering, and soon the bands began
to answer each other. First the band
on the northern bank would play
"Star Spangled Banner" Hail Col
umbia," or some other national air,
and at its concluson the "boys in
bluen would cheer most Justify. And
then the band on the southern bank
would respond with Dixie, or "Bon-
ME Blue Flag" or some other south
err melody, aud the "boys in gray
would attest appreciation with the
old Confederate veil But presently
one of the bands struck up. in sweet
and plaintive notes which were watt
ed across the beautiful Rappahannock
and were caught at once by the other
baud and swelled into grand anthem
which touched every heart, "Home
Sweet Home!v At the conclusion of
this piece there went up simultan-
eous shout from both sides of the riv-
er, cheer followed cheer, and those
hills, which had % recently resounded
with hostile guns. echoed and re-ech-
oed the glad acclaim. A chord had
been struck, responsive TO which the
hearts of enemies--enemics thea
could beat in unison aud on both
sides of the river

The expedition undertaken bv Mr..
Caldwell [who was aided in his oquip-
ment by funds from the Government
Grant Committee of the Royal Society
is perhaps the most interesting, be-
cause the animals which he has gone
to study are Of large size and already
more or less familiar. The Ornithor-
hynchns and the Echidna are hairy
quadrupeds (mammas) peculiar to
Australasia. which differ ffom all 9TH
or hairy quadrupeds in having, like
birds, but single aperture to the ex-
terror for the intestine and the ruilno-
genital canals, and in having the skel-
eton of the shoulder girdle and some
other features of structure are similar
to those of reptiles. Like those of
reptiles. their bodies are comparative
ly cold. instead of being kept in a dcfi-
mite ..blood heat Goo degrees Fahr.
as are those of all other mammals. 1t
had often been reported. and some
kind OF evidence had been given to
support the statement, that these
strange beasts lay their eggs like birds
and reptiles, instead of retaining the
egg-like structure within the body aud
allowing it to develop to certain con-
dition OF maturity as do all other hairy
quadrupeds. One of Mr.. Caldwcll's
objects was definitely to ascertain
whether these animals lay eggs or not,
and, of more Importance than that. to
examine minutely the whole history of
the growth in the egg, and to COM
pare it on tho one hand with tho COR
responding development OF birds and
reptiles, on the other with that of or
binary hairy quadrupeds or mammals.
Mr. Caldwell has found out all
about these animals and collected them
in quantities. The Echidna lays sim
gle egg, which she then carries about
her in pouch formed by u fold of skin
on the ventral surface of the body,
similar to the kangaroo's pouch.
The duck-mole, on the other hand.
lays two eggs at time and does not
carry them about, but deposits them
in her nest, an underground burrow
like that of the mole. Naturalists are
awaiting with great interest Mr.. Cald-
wells account of what goes on inside
these eggs while the young one is
growing there; that is to say, an ac-
count of the differences and resem-
blanccs between the structures which
gradually arise in these mammals $
eggs and those which are familiar to
us as occurring in the case of the COM
mon fowl.-E. Ray Lankester, IN Pop
