Curious scene.

A curious scene was enacted In one
OF the subterranean vaultsof the Treas
ury Department, reminding n of
smugglers or pirates in their I've or
misers counting their boarded gains.
The feeble glimmer of W. or three gas
jets permitted a glimpse of hundreds
of small sacks bulgiDg out with wealth
while beneath one Of the dim Jets were
three men seated around a common
pair of scales on a low wooden stand.
From the interior of the vault negro
messenger brought out the little sacks
one by one, each sack with the figures
of 81, 900 marked upon it in large back
letters. AS it was laid upon the scales
one of the gentlemen made a mark up
on its tag, another looked intently at
Its weight and the third kept tally.
Then the bag was borne away INTO the
darkness of the vault again.
The money of the government was be-
ing counted, as is usual upon the change
of treasurers. and the work had COM
menced sin Tie silver vault" under
the supervision of the committee re-
Gently appointed. In the vault are
oVOiCu away ACditJ hAhO nAi4oh nhSa-
dard silver dollars and about $4,000
in fractional silver. The dollars are
kept in sacks holding just a thousand,
and as each sack weighs 594 pounds,
and is in size nearly a foot square, one
can easily imagine that it would be a
difficult matter for thieves to carry off
many thousands even could they pene-
trate the vault. On commencing the
count the committee opened several of
these bags, and, selecting that one
which contained the most abraded and
worn coins, counted them and then
weighed che whole bag.
"Fifty-nine pounds and O. ounce"
said the man at the scales.
Then we shall conduct the count
on that basis" answered another mem
Der of the committee. If the bags
weighed a trife more it was known
that the $1,000 was intact, but if they
weighed less they were opened and
counted.

The Detecuve Camera.

Curious evidence has been obtained
by a member Of the Property Owners
ASSOCIATION, now engaged in an attempt
to clear vice out of the mercantile por-
ton of Sixth avenue. New York.
Warned by previous experience that
the police will testify when the cases in
preparation are brought up in court
that the aSsailed establishments are not
wicked and that the excise laws are not
broken in them, this earnest investiga-
tor has used a camera to some purpose.
The rotten neighborhood is brilliantly
lighted at night by electricity. The
city's street lamps there are electrical,
and these are reinforced by those hung
in front of saloons. The interiors also
of the dance houses, co ee t gardens
and variety shows are glarlngly illumi-
mated. Armed with a pocket camera
for taking instantaneous views, he has
made over a hundred negatives, the
prints from which show the character
OF the ~nuisances beyond the possibility
of a contradiction, In every case the
camera was used after one O'Clock in
the morning, when the sale of intoxi-
eants is supposed to have stopped. The
street scenes, showing throngs of mel
and girls entering and emerging from
the d~oorways, were obtained without
difficulty, for only a seconds exposure
of the lens, like the flash of a dark
lantern, was required in each case.
Sixty of these were made without at
tracing any attention. Then he I'M
dertook the more delicate job of interi-
or photographlng. He got eighteen
covert shots from the galleries and pri-
vate boxes of the Haymarket, Sans
oouci, Roster Sc Bial's Prospect, AL
hambra and C~oifee's, all in the region
of retail shopping injuriously affected
by their presence. At this stage he was
caught at it. He declared that he was
at work for the Police Gazette, which
was going to publish laudatory illustra-
ted accounts of the resorts and thus. in
the guise of "a special artist on the
spot" he VIGOROUSLY completed the
work. 1t is expected that jnrios will
believe the pictures against the VOID of
the police.

A few days ago, on the Grand Rapids
tram, a passenger got on at a small sta
ton and walked through the coaches
without being able to find a seat. He
finally halted before a man who occu-
pied a whole seat and seemed bound to
keep it. He was not invited to sit
down. On the contrary, the occupant
of the seat assumed a more frigid atti
tude.
"Sirln finally exclaimed the indignant

It was at Ell Teb that ! was irst
struck with the inferior quality Of the
English bayonet and sword bayonet.
at Tamai, In the rush and seurry. II
was put to a severer test than anywhere
else In the Soudan. In that battle the
Hadendowas, as they rushed cut Of
their grass v with their short spears,
fairly pitched themselves upon the wea-
pons OF our Black Watch and Sixty.ffth.
The triangular bayonet ofttimes bent
and twisted. On the whole, however,
it stood the test better than the sword
bayonet. Like the sword bayonet, it
often bent like hoop iron when a thrust
was made, IL a bone interposed, and be-
came corkscrewed in the struggle.
It has two serious drawbacks, not so
observable in the sword bayonet. The
wound 1t makes is slight, 70 that q
fanatical savage or iafuriated man re-
quires several thrusts before he is placed
horse de combat. giving him a chance
to run amuck among civilized troops
In the second place. the triangular
bayonet, when thrust violently, goes toe
far, and there is great difficulty in free
ing It. At Tamai "a stalwart soldier
hooked bis opponent in such a manne

wards. as we were ~retreating, before

one.

as well as some in tbs battles up the
Nile, bend in a semicircle and remain
in that shape, uniting it for a second

Justify the giving way Of the weapon.
The fact that it did lot regain its form
further proved that the quality OF the
blade was of the poorest. 1t would
have gone the anne way had Il been
driven backwardly into a sack of -four
There can be no real difficulty with
our mechanics and workshops IN pIocu-
ring baYonets that will bear the brunt
of rough usage in acampaign. What l
have said Of the bad qualities OF the
cutlass applies equally TO the sword
bayonet. Many a soldier at Abu Klea
saw with dismay his bayonet rendered
useless at the moment when there was
no chance to load his rife, and when he
most stood in need Of its services.
There also / saw sword bayonets bend
and twist with the facility Of soft iron
rather than steel. After the fight you
might have noticed brawnyfoot guards

n BIRD.

In South America, says Mr.. Robert
Ridgway, the ornithologist, native In
dians are largely engaged in hunting
birds for the trade. Recently in one
consignment, 1900 humming-birds
were sent from Brazil to Paris. 'sSome-
times" says Mr.. Ridgway. ''the natives
will make up a bird by attaching feath-
ers to it that do not rightly belong to it
to give it an attractive appearance.
They do this very skillfully, and, Of
course. 1t makes no difference to the
lady who wears 1t on her bonnet, and is
more particular about the effect Of
colors than scientific truth. A bird
fell into the hands of an English orni-
biologist some time ago, and he suppo-
sed he had a great prize. He had
described it at length in a communica-
ton to a scientific society and published
illustrations of it. 1t turned out to be
a combination bird, made up by n of
these Indians, and constructed very per-
fectly. The wings and tail of ore va
riety of bird had been attached to the
body of another.

The raisin growing districts Of this
country are desperately fighting the
importation of foreign raisins ON the
plea of the danger that may exist of
bringing the seeds of cholera along with
the packages which are imported from
the cholera infected countries of Spain.
California Is the only ra6in growing
part of the United States and producers
! n that State cannot be blamed for
seeking a home market for their prod
ucts. The claim they urge OF danger
OF Infection from imported raisins is
not baseless. The Spanish raIsins are
picked and dried by the peasants, the
drying process being carried on in the
open air and in the miserable novels
they call houses. The sickness of a
member of q family with the cholera
or any other infectious disease does not
put a stop upon the business of drying
the fruit. witch in the process of dry

ing in the air or that may cling to the
utensils in which the fruit is placed in
the process of curing.
From the picking OF the grapes to
packing of the Taisins preparatory to
shipment there is constant liability that
the prevalent germs may be inclosed
and shipped to a foreign country. In
the opinion of eminent sanitary author
tiles in New York no such danger ex-
lists, yet these same authorities are will
ling and anxious that rags imported
from foreign countries shall be thor
oughly fumigated and disinfected be-
fore being received into this country.

been the greatest sufferer from cholera,
which disease prevailed in its greatest
intensity just IN the grape picking and

PAINTED DEooRATIoNs.-Ladies who
paiht will doubtless be much interested
to hear that prismatic bronze painting
Is 10 not only used for furniture deco
rative purposes, but has also entered
into the service of fashion, which favors
the idea of making painting serYiceable
for o~rnamenting articles of dress.
Among the toilet appurtenances before
us we can especially mention a painted
satin fan, further short chemisette or
waistcoat fronts made Of velvet, and
with collar and cuffs to match; also a
Deacock-blue velvet skirt tablier with
plastron; a very rich and effective trim
ming, equally suitable for a visiting
dress, or an elegant dishabille. The
metallic lustre of this peculiar, and yet
in the execution easy style of painting.
Is doubly striking when seen by candle
light. The different things can be pur-
chased either completed or only sketch
