THE KOBuRGER BIBLE.

A Rare Edition of the Scriptures in Which
Moses Appears With Horns.
The latest addition to the collection
OF antiquities, curios, old manuscripts,
etc., in possession of General Charles
w. Darling, of Utica, N. Y, is rare
and perfect copy of the Koburger
Bible, printed in folio by Anthony
Koburger, of Nuremburg, 1883. Pre-
vioas to this time printing had been
done mostly in Latin, although in 1880
the Italians began to print with Greek
and Hebrew types, which they wer.
the first to use. Anthony Koburgel
was man of great learning, eminent
also for his elegance in printing,
and styled the Prince of Printers.
He printed thirteen editions of the
Bible in twenty-six years, twelve in
Latin and one in German, all large and
handsome folios. and highly esteemed
as extremely beautiful specimens OF
the art. His chef d'euvre was the Ger
man Bible printed in folio, 1888, and
profusely illustrated with most extra
ordinary and complicated wood cuts.
I'm these curious and fanciful pictures
Moses appears with horns. Jerome,
in translating from the Hebrew, made
the Latin Vulgate say of Moses, as he
came down from the mount, that His
head radiated with light" The error
Of Jerome in the translation was occa-
stoned by his misinterpretation of the
Hebrew word signifying both a horn
and a pencil of light; for as
the horn of the Oriental buffalo
and a pencil of light were
both conical in shape, the same word
was used in the Hebrew for each. The
Hebrew language to certain extent il
an object language, and the word here
used is expressive of shape, signifyins
that his face had rays of light stream.
ing from it.
AS the Vulgate was the Bible of the
Roman Church, Michael Angelo, wheu
he turned to the Book of Exodus for .
description of the appearance of Moses,
found him described as having horns
This explains the horns on the head Of
the great lawgiver Of Israel. Thus i,

THE SEA ANEMONE.

"A Oueer-LOOk1ng Creature with \ Vo-
racious Appetite.
In structure the sea anemone con-
sists of a sac divided by vertical par
titlons into as many distinct cavities as
there are fingers or tentacles. At bisth
there are six of these cavities, then
come twelve, next forty Weight, and so
on. The mouth of the animal occupies
the center of the crown or head of the
anemone, and of all the waving arms.
The body of the creature may be de-
scribed as circular gelatinous bag.
The upper part of this bag is turned in
so as to form a sac within a sac. The
inner sac is the stomach of the animal.
1t has an aperture in the bottom,
through which the food can pass into
the outer cavity. The eggs are at
tached to and hang on the inner edge
of the partitions. When they mature
they drop into the main body cavity
and enter the stomach through the
hole in the lower opening. From there
the little ones are passed out through
the mouth, from which orifice they
are very tenderly taken up by two
tentacles, which becomes wonderfully
elongated for the occasion. These
tentacles take up the young anemones,
now perfect in form and functions,
and very carefully and slowly deposit
them upon the rock around the base
and close to the mother anemone.
The young anemones may remain for
some time upon the spot where they
are placed, but they have the means of
locomotion. This is effected by a
double set of muscles, one running
around the body and the other longi-
tudinally arranged. l have fourteen
young anemones, all born in my aqua
rum. Their ages vary from three
months down to the youngest, born
four days ago.
The anemones are possessed of a Pc
culiar means of offense and defense.
These are poisoned threads or arrows,
embedded in the outer skin substance,
and which are capable of being shot
out with considerable force and incon-
,ceivable rapidity. They bury them
selves in whatever object against
which they are projected, and probably
convey to the wound some poisonous
matter which renders their prey q
helpless victim to the anemone's greedy
mouth.
The anemone has sense of smell,
also has rudimentary eyes-not of
much use, probably-but the most in
teresting sense which it possesses is
that of taste. Notwithstanding it's vo-
raciousness, it has it's pronounced likes
and dislikes feed mine upon small
bits of oyster Or clam or fresh meat,
scraped fine. Every piece dropped in
the water over them is seized by their
outstretched arms and passed hurried
" to their mouths. The daintiest food
for them, however, are the small crabs
sometimes found in oyster shells.
These the anemones fairly revel in. A
good-sized sea flower could easily swal-
low 9 whole crab at meal. Baltimore

a MAINE ECCENTRIC.
He Was Great Grammarlan. and ~
Enemy Of Drugs and Doctors.

He Was Great Grammsrlan, and IN
Enemy Of Drugs and Doctors.
The greatest Maine-born GRAMMAR
an once lived at Rumford, just above
the great rocks where the cater
pitches over Rumford Falls He is
said never to have written ,or spoken
a sentence after he was fifteen years
old which was not dramatically COR
rect. He died about twelve years ago.
Many people in Rumford well recollect
Thomas Irish, the old-fashioned teach
or in ancient district school houses.
Some time before his death Brown, the
author of Browns celebrated grammar,
spent several days with this great
Rumford scholar listening to the roar
of Rumford's falls and absorbing
Grammarian Irish's fine points. In
one edition. of Browns grammar can be
found footnotes on difficult construc-
tions, ETC., edited by Thomas Irish, of
Rumford. Like many men of genius
he was a peculiar chap" as they say.
IT he met you on the street in dry
time of year, he invariably said: '.The
sounding of the grinding is low. The
pitcher may as well be broken at the
Fountain" He always had q peculiar
dislike for doctors and drugs, and rare
ly could be persuaded to take the mild
est kind of medicine when he was on
the sick bed. Several years before his
death he experienced severe illness.
The doctors told him that his life de-
pended on his keeping quiet in bed for
at least q month. Mr.. Irish fretted
about his potatoes and turnips on a
sick bed for about a week, when one
day, as the physician called, the pa
tient was not to be found. They hunt
ed high and low, and finally found the
grammarian hoeing potatoes in the
field in his night robe.
And when the man with the medi-
cine chest stepped into his room to ask
if he was comfortable he thus saluted
him: mo more of your nauseating,
filthy drugs, sir. If l rally it will be
from the bounties of my Widespread
table," He partially recovered from
his illness, and one day, meeting his
old doctor on the street, told him that
it was no use, he was worn out, and it
was time for him to pass in his checks.
The doctor cheered him up as best he
could, and said: 20, no, Tom, you're
good for two years yet" do you
think SOP" asked Mr.. Irish. II GER
tainly d." replied the doctor "Wen,
then, I suppose you're right, and I'll
do as you say" said Thomas Irish,
and he drove off whistling Yankee
Doodle" Exactly two years from
that day he lay on his death-bed, and,
looking into his physicians face, said:
''You gave me a two-years' lease after
I thought had given the old ship up,
and I've taken it. The two years are
ended to-day, and 1 can't stay any
longer And thus this eccentric man
died.-Lewisto,s (Me. Journal.

CHEAP ALUMINIUM.

A Method for Cheaply Producing the
Coming Substitute for Iron.
Experiments have resulted in an ex-
traordinary discovery, if the state
ments made by those interested are
correct. The discovery is that alu-
minum, which now costs $4,000 ton
and is produced only in France, can be
obtained anywhere by most simple
process and at less than 0ne-hundredth
part of the present expense.
The Importance of this discovery
can be judged when it is recollected
that aluminium is the most generally
diffused metal on earth, and has all
the beauty of silver, besides being nom
furnishing, non-corrosive, more last
ing than silver, with only one-fourth
it's weight. In addition, aluminium
alleged one-tenth of one per cent.
with iron or steel increases the
homogeneous and tensile strength
of the metal nearly half, while for
electro-plating purposes aluminium is
superior to either gold or silver.
The experiments began in an attempt
to extract aluminium chemically from
common clay and cryolite. This was
accomplished in novel manner, and
the operators obtained thereby metallic
aluminium, chemically pure. Their
method was based upon the theory of
substitution and smelling the ore in a
water jacketed steel furnace, a crucible
being useless to resist the strong fuor-
ide tiuxes. q
When the mass was quite liquid it
was conveyed into converter or
covered Stag pot holding about four
hundred pounds, and the aluminium ex-
tracted therefrom by syphon tap.
The Stag was returned to the furnace,
serving the purpose Of fux with more
ore. This direct continuous process
obviated the necessity Of the usual
costly informed diary elements and made
aluminium about as cheap 6 copper.

The Butler Zouavss Relieve Them
selves of Their Commander.
The Butler Zouaves, Fifth Battalion,
one of the colored companies in the Ma
tional Guard, have been disturbed for
some months past by internal dssensions,
and the trouble eliminated last night at
a meeting held at their armory, 1921
PENNSYLVANIA avenue northwest, when,
by the unanimous vote of the company,
Major G. II. Fisher was expelled from the
command and membership of the organi-
zation for "scandalous conduct"
The trouble grew out of the alleged
misapplication of funds for which
Major Fisher was responsible. On last
Thanksgiving Day the company began
fair and bazar which continued for two
weeks. Major Fisher was general mana
ger. The company waited in vain for
him to make report as to the condition
of the finances of the fair, but, as this
was not forthcoming, he was gently re-
minded that the organization would like
to hear something about them.
Major Fisher, however, possibly think
ing that his report would not benefit the
company in any way, refused to take the
frequent hints that were given him, and
the company appointed court of inquiry
TO investigate the Majors management
of the fair. Their report was derogatory
to their commanders good name and
honesty.
General Ordway, the commander of the
National Guard, blew n gentle zephyr on
the smoudering fire which was begin
ming to make itself felt, by taking away
from the Zouaves their arms and equip
ments, giving as his reason that Major
Fisher was not person fit to have their
responsibility. This was too much for
the members of the company, and when
the case was called up at the meeting last
