Death and Burial In China.

When the Chinese wish to declare the
extreme vexatiousness of any piece of
work they say: ''It is more trouble than
funeral" the obsequies of parent be-
ing reckoned the most maddening affair
in human experience. e..
Infants are buried summarily. without
collins, and the young are inferred with
few rites; but the funeral of the aged,
of both sexes, are elaborate in proportion
to the number of the descendants and to
their wealth. When childless married
man dies, his widow may perform all the
duties of son toward him, may remain
in his house and may adopt children to
rear as heirs and as worsbippers of the
family names. If his widow purposes
marrying again, young male relative
may, with the consent of senior members
of the clan, undertake the services ex-
pected from son, and may inherit the
estate of the deceased.
When one is about to die he is re-
moved from his couch to bench or to q
mat on the floor because of belief that
he who dies in a bed will carry the bed
stead as burden into the next world.
He is washed in a new pot, in warm
water in which bundle of incense sticks
is merged. After the washing the pot
and the water are thrown away together.
He is then arrayed in full suit Of new
clothing that he may appear at his best.
He breathes his last in the main room,
before the largest door of the house, that
the departing soul may easily tud its
way out into the air. A sheet of spirit
money, brown paper having patch of
gliding on one surface, is laid over the
upturned face, because it is said that. If
the eyes are left uncovered, the corpse
may count the rows of tiles in the Ioof,
and that in such case the family could
never build a more spacious dom:cile.-

The Lion a;a F0rager.

When lion shakes his name and roars,
those actions have practical as well az
q dramatic significance. Like q skilfu
orator, the lion not only uses the gestures
appropriate to the occasion, but he uses
them with a purpose. A traveller In,
Africa gives, in s.Days and Nights by the
Desert" the following description Of the
method adopted by lions in attacking
cattle and horses. 81
Lions, as rule, hunt in family parties

A Mysterious Experimenter.

A species of Partisan DR.. Jekyll ha.
been unmasked a. Auteuil, France.
This person went down to that pleasant
suburb and racing rendezvous some days
ago. He hired rooms in very secluded
villa on the borders of the Bois aud shut
himself up in it, after having provisioned
himself in the town. He stuffed up the
holes of the doors, pasted white
paper on the insides of his window panes,
and surrounded himself with as much
mystery and secrecy as did thehy pochon-
dria, Mr.. Hyde, or the ''strange lodger"
who took apartments in the mansion OF
Sampson and Sally Brass. His neighhors
-justas semi-provincial suburban people
will do-fell to gossiping and all sorts
of theories, vague and vapory in detail
were constructed to account for the
problematic attitude of the stranger.
The police were at last appealed to, and,
having burst in the door of the "Jekyll OF
Auteuil, they discovered that he was
inoculating three ill-fated terriers with
his own blood in order to ascertain if
bite which he had at one time received
from a dog was likely to prove fatal. He

in the interests of humanity, in order to
enable every man to be his own Pasteur.

Is Deafness Hereditary2

The State Convention of deaf mutes
assembled in the City Hall at Rochester,
N. Y. The President in the course of
his address said, concerning the Ion
gevity of deaf mutes. that the average,
according to present computation, is
sixty seven years. The oldest deaf mute
in the State is Miss Mary Tabor, of
Scipio, Cayuga county, aged ninety
three The statistical information of
the association is against the theories of
DR.. Alexander Graham Bell concerning
the hereditary tenden y of deafness. In
all but one of these institutions in the
State there were in twenty years 1893 ad-
missions to the deaf mute schools, and
of these eighteen were children of deaf
mutes-almost three-quarters of one per
cent. The President said not one of the
schools of the State was supported as it
should be. The State paid yearly
amount per capita of $3.50, which was
not sufficient. - Ncw York Star.

Modest Vegetable Giants.

Giants IN the vegetable kingdom seem
to have developed u singular propensity
to keep themselves hidden from pubic
view, until in these later days, science
is gradual; finding them out. A num
Der have been brought 10 view during
recent years. One Of The most recent is
a plant Of the C"mtanul"rt.., Or order
of Bell.howers. 1t produces stem
reaching five feet in height, and the
iowers, arranged along this stem, are
over six inches in diameter These huge
bells are of a pale, lavender color, a.
snowy as they are monstrous. Regel,
the botauist of St. Petersburg, seems to
have been the first to have taken notice
of it, and thatit is wholly new to science :;
so it has been named by him for Rus

THE EDISAPPOINTED.

There are songs enough for the hero,
Who dwells on the height Of fame;
sng for the Disappointed
For those who missed their aim.
Using with a fearful cadence
For one who stands in the dark,
md knows that his last, best arrow
Has bounded back from the mark.
I sing for the breathless runner,
The eager, anxious soul,
Who falls, with his strength exhausted,
Almost in sight of tho goal
For the hearts that break in silence
With sorrow all unknown,
For those who need companions,
Yet walk their ways alone.
There are songs enoughs for the lovers
Who share loves tender pain;
Using for the one whose passion
Is given all in vain.
For those whose spirit comrades
Have missed them on the way;
sing with heart o'verfowing
This minor strain to-day.
And know the solar system
Must somewhere keep in space
A prize for that spent runner
Who barely lost the race.
For the plan would be imperfect
Unless it held some sphere
That paid for the toll and talent
And love that is wasted here.

A Bloodthirsty Audience.


Warde, the actor, tells a good story.
1t is. | suppose, chestnut. I never
heard theatrical story that wa not.
What proves it to be an old one is that
Warde names the place it occurred in.
He was playing Firginius in some small
place. You will remember that Appius
Claudius's client, who does the dirty
work, comes on in the last at, has a
few words with Appius Claudius in
prison and then goes off. That IS the
last that is seen of him in the play.
When the curtain fell on this perform
ante of "Virginius" in this small place
Warde retired to his dressing room and
proceeded to become the Frederick
Warde of everyday life. The manager
came in.
"Mr. Warde, the audience has not
gone"
'sWell, can't help that. The play is
done. There isn't any more of it in the
book"
"But they don't CO."
"Turn down the footlights."
"No use. They won't stir. Won't
you 60 and speak to them3"
"What! Go and tell them the plays
over! Egad-I will. That will be a
funny experience"
Warde stepped in front of the curtain;
there the audience sat quite still.
"Ladies and gentlemen: The play is
over. Virginia is dead; Dentatus is
dead; I am dead; Appius Claudius is
dead"
Just then voice sang out from the
gallery: "What did you do with that

The Lucky OIL DrIiler.

"Bob" Green, of Washington, Penn,
an oil driller who became famous in
Western Pennsylvania from the many
lucky hits he made, especially at the
time of the Fergus oil boom, from which
he got the reputation of being mascot,
died few days ago in Mercy Hospital,
Pittsburg, and the Commercial Gazette
gives an interesting sketch of his career.
The cause of Green's death was nervous
prostration.
bob" Green was we'll known to oil
producers everywhere as "The Lucky
Driller." When s. P. Fergus, we'll
known Washington county oil l-producer,
first started to drill in that section he
engaged the services of Green. Tho
territory where the wells were to be
located was entirely new and some
distance from where the producing wells
of that country were located. Mr..
Fergus was not over sanguine, but
"Bob" Green was, and assured his en-
ployer that he would strike q bonanza.
Fergus said to him: 49,.
"Well, Bob if you are 80 confident,
will enter into an agreement that you
are to receive one-eighth of the oil pro-
duced in that territory for your services
as driller."
Green replied: 81 will take your offer,
and it will make me rich"
The drilling began. The first we'll
proved to be gusher. The next was
an equally good producer. The boom
continued, and it was not many months
before Green's prophecy that the agree
ment would make him a comparatively
rich man proved true. The title, 1.-THE
Lucky Driller," then fell to Green, and
his services were sought for by producers
everywhere.
Recently he left the employ of Mr..
Fergus, and leased territory in the Baker
town district, and had been operating
for himself ever since,

Russian Baths.

The Russian bath differs from the
Turkish bath, which it resembles in
other respects, in the TACT that steam is
used instead of dry hot air for inducing
perspiration and general activity OF the
Skin, which is the OBJ ect aimed at IN all
vapor baths. The bather, in taking a
Russian bath, enters rSt a room filed
with steam, and is laid on shelf in such
a position that the steam reaches every
part of his body. After remaining there
until he is IN profuse perspiration, he
is rubbed and manipulated by an attend
ant and then led out to pool of com
paratively cold water into which he
plunges; from this he goes again into a
steaming room or plunges alternately
into hot water and .ool. The process
ends by II gradual cool off in a room OF
moderate temperature.

AliuuiDpa, the Indian Queen.

Probably few of the hundreds of
Pittsburg people who hear the name of
"Aliquippa" pronounced, and read it in
the newspapers almost daily, are aware
of the historical origin of the word. Yet,
Aliquippa was name famous through
out this entire region Dearly century
and half ago. long before Pittsburg
existed, and even before Fort Pitt was
located at the "Eorks of the Ohio"
Aliauippa was an Indian Queen. and
woman of wide influence among her
people. The Father of his Country was
once her guest, and his journal gives a
somewhat amusing account of the visit
which he paid to her. 1t happened in
this way: Washington, on his return
from his trip to LIE BGuf in December,
1888, was accompanied by the noted
backwoodsman, Christopher Gist, who
had also acted as his guide during the
Journey to the French commandsnt's
headquarters. Gist had settled during
the previous summer at place now
known as Mount Braddock, in Fayette
County. The afterward distinguished
virginian and his companion encoun-
tered many difficulties and endured many
hardships during their journey. On the
night of December 20, just at dusk, they
attempted to cross the Allegheny
River on an imp piov;sed raft, above an
Indian village known as Shannopin's
town. The result was narrow escape
from drowning for both. They, how
ever, succeeded in getting to an island,
where they passed the night, suffering
bitterly from the cold in their wet gar.
ments. The next day they managed ia
ret from the island to the mainland,
aided by ice which had formed during
the night, and made their way to the
cabin Of man named Fra :ier, an Indian
trader, who lived at the mouth of Turtle
Creek. Washington 8 Tvs in his journal
"As we intended to take horses here,
and it required some time to find them,
I went up about three miles to the mouth
of the Youghiogheay to visit Queen
Aliquippa, who had exp esscd great con.
Germ that we passed her in going 10 the
fort. I made her present of a match
coat and bottle Of rum, which latter
was thought much the better present OF
the two. Tuesday, January lst. we left
Mr.. Frazier's and arrived dt MIR. tist's,
at Monongahela, January I'd, where ]
bought horse and saddle"
Some years prior to her location on
Turtle Creek Queen Aiquippa lived at s
point near Dallas. in Bedford County.
''Aliquippa's town" is mentioned in
patent to piece of land located there,
and may have been an Indian village OF
considerable Importance. A score or
more Of Indian graves marked the site OF
the town at the time the region was set
tied by the whites. They were mound. !
shaped and covered by heaps OF stone.
Some of them were dug open. and bones, !
beads, pipes and Indian weapons found !

A Cobra Wreak's Vengeance.

The India Homeward Mail reports the
death of Mr.. Andrew Fischer, an em.
ploye of the Madras Railway Company,
at the Pennar Bridge Works on the
northwest line of the railway, under
most distressing circumstances. He was
employed as driver of bridge engines
at the Penuar Works. While, he was
seated in the veranda of his bungalow
he observed two large cobras on the bar
rem plain Immediately in front of the
house. Aiming himself with stout
stick, he proceeded to the spot and en-.
countered the snakes. He succeeded in
killing one of them, while the other
which had been slightly wounded, man.
aged to escape. Mr.. Fischer hunted
about for the runaway, but could not
find it. He then returned to his bum
galow and rested for some time, as he
was off duty. Later in the day he pre-.
pared to 90 to his work, and with that
object got out his clothes to dress. He,
sat on his cot and was about to put on
his shirt when he felt something bite
him on the back. He turned round, and
to his horror found a snake on the cot
behind him, which he is said to have re, /,
cognized as the cobra he had wounded
that morning. He Immediately sought
medical relief, and all kinds of remedies
were applied, but to no effect, and he
died in the evening, leaving widow
and an infant child, for whom much
sympathy is felt. "Kelleyan'' writes tc
a Bombay paper: "It is commonly be.
lieved among the Hindus that no animal
is more revengeful than the cobra, and
that if an attempt is made to kill it and
it escapes, it never gives itself rest until
it has wreaked its vengeance upon its
assailant."
