mission has to some extent drifted away
from what it was originally intended and
he considers it his duty to bring it back,

put the matter in a nutshell, the naturalist
cares as much for q sculpin as for Goldfish,
but the Commission cares more for the cod

Brides Who Perch in Trees.

Among the Lolos of Western China
it is customary for the bride on the
wedding morning TO perch herself on
the highest branch Of a large tree,
while the elder female members Of her
family cluster on the lower limbs arm
ed with sticks. When all are duly
stationed the bridegroom chambers up
the tree, assailed on all sides by blows.
pushes and pinches from the dowagers.
and it is not until he has broken
through their fence and captured the
bride that he is allowed to carry her
off Similar difficulties assail the
bridegroom among the Mongolian
Koraks, who are in the habit of cele-
brating their marriages in large tents,
divided into numerous separate. but
communicating compartments. At a
given signal. as soon as the guests are
assembled, the bride starts off through
the compartments followed by her
wooer, while the women of the en-
campment throw every possible i'm
pedment in his way. tripping up his
unwary feet, holding down the curtains
to prevent his passage, and applying
willow and alder switches numerically
as he stoops to raise them. As with
the maiden on the horse. and the
virgin on the tree-top. the Korak bride
is invariably captured. however, much
the possibilities of escape may be in
her favor.-BldckwePs Magazine.

To Empty a Stable Full of
Horses,

The question of how to empty a
stable full of horses in case of fire, to
save the lives OF animals. is one of
great interest to owners Of horses. re-
marks The Fireman's Herald. An
electrical company has lately put up
for firm in Centre street. New York
city, q device for this purpose which is
now on trial.
The arrangement is of simple con-
struction. In the principal alleyway
leading into the stable is placed a
wheel about three feet in diameter,
which is connected by shafts with the
stalls. A heavy weight is suspended
from the circumference of the wheel.
Delicate thermostats placed about
the ceiling of the stable are arranged so
that very light increase of tempera-
ture will, by expansion. complete an
electrical circuit that will loosen the
weight suspended from the wheel, and
set the machinery in motion.
A bell will ring, the bolts of the
stalls will be drawn, the halters of the
horses loosened. and lastly. a double
stream of water will be thrown into the
face of each horse from two Jets placed
over the head of the stall.
The effect Of this shower bath i'll
be to cause the horse to back out of his
STALL He will find himself free, the
doors OF the stall and the stable open,
and in his fri ght at the fire and the I'M
usual commotion, will naturally secure
his own safety.
