RAINING an Rlsphan... Hlds.

It weighed about zoo pounds and was
about an inch and third thick After be
ing put In reservoir of pure water to green
it, it was beaten for one hour every day with
an iron on large anvil. After being ten
days in pure water it was left for another
ten days in water with about per cent Of
salt. Then it was replaced in puSe water
again for twenty days, During those forty
days it was constantly in soak
The head and feet, weighing about 500
pounds, were then removed and the skin
hung on spikes in the drying room After
hanging one day it was put in q vat contain
ing potash and a small quantity of sulphur of
sodium in the following proportions: Water,
1000 parts; Stacked lime, % parts; potash, 5
parts; sulphur of sodium. parts After be-
ing two days in this bath it was rinsed in
pure water of temperature Of 20 deg, when
it was again placed in the drying room.
After this double operation was repeated
three times the skin was ready to have the
hair taken of. This operation occupied about
one days time and gave about seventy-ive
pounds of hair. Another day was spent in
cleaning and scraping. By this time it lost
so per cent. of its weight. The operation OF
its preparation lasted two months and it went
through the same course as cowhide, with the
difference thnr each phase of the work took
three times much time. The skin should
be stretched in the pit and placed in the mid
die of cowhides, Six layers of powder are
then thrown in; two first, two second, and
two third layers Altogether the tanning
takes three years The partition of time is

LARGE shipment of Birds.

Sir. Emile Scheuerman shipped at one time
nearly 1900 birds of several different varie-
ties to New York, from which place they
will beexported To Europe. The shipment
yesterday comprised sea pigeons and several
varieties of terms, varying in size, the largest
being about the size of a common pigeon and
the smallest about as large as martin. The
prevailing colors of these birds are white
and pearl in light and dark shades, the points
of the wings and tails being tipped with
black. These birds are killed on Sand and
Pettibois islands, where they are partly pre-
pared by seven girls employed by Mr.. Scheuer-
man. They are then shipped to this city
and the finishing touches are put on accord
ing to the most approved methods known to
the taxidermists, by Mr.. Scheuerman and
his assistant Mrs. Mamie Campbell
The birds are prepared whole, retaining all
the beauty of the plumage. These birds are
for use in the millincr's art, being used to
adoiI tie hats and bonnets of fashionable
ladies. Some are dyed, while others are used
III their natural plunlage.
In response to questions, Mr.. Scheuerman
said he had been engaged in this business for
nearly two years, with much success. There
are only two other persons engaged in the
business in the south, one having headquar-
tels at New Orleans and the other at Charles
ton. He learned taxidermy from a gentle
man who had formerly been connected with
the Smithsonian Institute. The business Of
mounting birds for sale was not u success.
He had mounted a great many, but there is
no sale for them Since the lst of June he
has shipped 10000 birds to New York, and
there is a good demand for them-MobiIe

The American Climate.

At the opening of the British associations
geographical section President de Wiuton
pointed out that the effect of climate upon
race is somewhat remarkably illustrated by
the physique and nerve power OF the present
race of Americans" Two centuries ago they
were the same race as the English, hut now
the contrast is marked. Our climate, ac-
cor,iing to the eminent geographer, has given
Ai4cTicai45 an individual stamp" and has
made perceptible difference in the outward
ss,nblance even in this short space of time
This interesting note OF the pronounced ef-
feet of climate on race deserved more prac-
teal elaboration than CJl. de Winton had
time to give it. Great Britain has an insular
climate with low barometer, which is re-
IaSinS to the human frame. 1t has been
well said that in heavy atmosphere the ele-
plant would become comparatively active
animal while in rarsfied air he world become
duh and heavy. In America atmospheric
pressure. averages higher than in England.
The climate is continental, with more Of ex-
hilarating sunlight and more of the element
of cold, which, within certain limit, is adj
judged by ali Psychologists to be powerful
tonic and therapeutic agent OF much value
la fact the chief characteristic 81 our eli
mate is the excess Cf its nerve stimulating
properties, which in the colder paris OF the
country tends to exhaust overworked, i'll fed,
i'll clad and anRmic people. But, on the
whole, the Anglo-Saxon race has not suffered
by the transfer from an insular to 3 CONT.

Asia.s AbIest Soldier.

Nearly forty years ago in South Hunting
ton township, Westmoreland county, lived
John Hinton lie was an orphan boy, rude
and uneducated, and had wandered there
from the neighborhood of Masontown, Fay
etts county. With no known relatives, he
was kicked from one family to another till
manhood enIisting then In the war At
its close he helped to escort the 'Chero-
KEGS beyond the Mississippi From In
dian territory lie went to New Orleans and
shipped as common sailor on a vessel bound
for the East Indies. AT the Bay of Madras,
on the western shores of the Bay of Bengal,
he deserted and enlisted in a British regi-
ment He served many years, and during
the memorable Sepoy rebellion was noted for
his daring bravery. At his discharge he was
presented with gold medal by the governor
general himself.
He is next heard of travelling in a caravan
from Delhi westward across the Indus river,
through Afghanistan and Persia, to Turkey
and back. In time from trading he became
immensely wealthy and was the owner of five
caravans, containing II, OC0 horses and caInels
and Fifty elephants In 1878 he visited Cabui,
the capital of Afghanistan, for copper, great
quantities of which are there mined and
smelted His magnificent retinue attracted
the attention of the ameer and he was invited
to an audience, an honor never before re-
ceived by Christian. A present of 100 Of
his best horses and a three-tusked elephant
made the ameer his eternal friend, When
yearly it was followed by similar presents,
besides camels and merchandise John Hinton
gained the monopoly of trade from the sum
init of the Hindoo Koosh mountains to the
confines Of the Belioochistan, and in real
power is second only TO the ameer himself
About 1880 he was made military com
mander of the district of Herat, and in 1886
suppressed local rebellion to the great salts
faction of his sovereign Trained in the arts
of war among the savages Of North America
and among the superstitious natives Of India,
where he became thoroughly familiar with
British soldiers and their resources, together
with his years OF service as the idolized com
mander Of the Mohammedan tribes to tens OF
thousands half-civilized men, he is today the
ablest soldier in Asia Somerset County PsJ
