Ono Of tho Most Unique Exhibits at tho
Paris Exposition.
Within the space allotted to the va
ried and interesting exhibits from
Roumania at the Paris Exhibition, one
comes suddenly upon an obelisk of sin
gular and almost weird aspect, which
invariably, at first sight, is something
OF a mystery to the beholder
1t is eighteen or twenty feet in
height. and consists of tapering. four
sided shaft, set upon simply, yet
symmetrically, built pedestal five or
six feet square by about five feet In
height. In short, the structure re.
sembles mortuary monument, and is
suggestive of cemetery memories.
1t is the appearance of the material
from which the monument is made.
however, which piques curiosity. At
first glance it seems to be semi-trans-
parent, and one wonders whether there
may actually be marble in Roumauia
of that peculiar tint
From another point of view 1t even
resembles alabaster, while from others
one might easily mistake it for q pill
lar of ice In fact, it was not till the
writer had walked completely around
1t that the secret of Its composition
came out-from very homely test.
The usual crowd of sightseers was
surging past. A vivacious French
party of six or seven persons came
forward, and at once exclaimed: ..Ah
que c'est beau!" how beautiful! in a
quick, appreciative fashion.
Then they fell to wondering what II
could be made OF. They covertly
scratched it, shrugged their shoulders
shook their heads and looked puzzled.
At length one bright witted girl OF
the party rubbed it with her moistened
finger and touched her tongue.
''Set!" she cried. Whereat they all
laughed heartily, and moved gaily
away.
Scarcely had they disappeared when
a less voluble party of five darker.

claimed. And then they, in turn, were
possessed by the same curiosity to as.

the monument And again it was one
of the young ladies who, having sur
reptitiously touched it with a wet fin.

"Bah! SAT-" she cried, with an odd
little twist of her lace-clad shoulder.

dotted his hat to her, while the other.

How Musk Is Obtained.

Most people take it for granted that
because musk is sold in what is called
a pod. therefore it is vegetable prod
uct But the truth is that it is entirely
an animal product, being a substance
found in two or three inch sac in the
body of tho little musk-deer of Asia
This sac. when tied up and dried, goes
by the name of a pod among the hunt
ers who bring it into market. Proba-
bly, there are few things subject to such
adulteration, as one part of pure musk
will scent thousands of parts of some
other powder mingled with it; and as
the pods sell for from fifteen to twenty
dollars apiece the adulteration has it's
profit 1t is indeed SO rungent that
when just fresh it has been known to
produce violent bleeding at the nose,
and many people are SO susceptible to
it as to have sad headaches brought
about by contact with the pure article;
and while a suspicion of it is very
agreeable to many persons, one atom
too much becomes offensive, as the case
is with patchouli and many other odor-
GUS substances. It was formerly large
ly used in therapeutics, especially in
the Orient, having become disused as
much from the difficulty of obtaining it
y a pure state as from any thing else,
and it is now seldom given except in
hysteria and hiccough. -Harper's Ba-

SHOWERS OF DEAD BIRDS.
In Migrating They Strike Electric Lights
and Locomotive Headlights.
ICle1reland plain. Daalar

cleveland Plain. Dealer.1
Every telegraph messenger boy that en-
tered the newspaper offices last night had
his pockets full of crippled or dead birds.
Night policemen coming in at luncheon
time had scores Of them, and reported that
they were continually dropping about the
bases of the five electric light masts.
Early risers this morning found the ground
about the electric light masts covered with
dead birds.
A similar phenomenon was observed
about year ago. A local naturalist, who
works for the Smithsonian Institution,
said: "The birds of which so many were
killed were mainly warblers. picked up
over twenty species. The death rate was
much less than one night year ago. The
warblers have a certain date for migrat-
ing southwark and from carefully kept
records l can always tell within day or
two when to expect them They come
from various ATTITUDES, but all seem to
come together, as it were, at a certain rem
devious to make their Southern tour
together Some of the birds found
dead here this morning were from
so far north that their breeding ground is
not definitely known. When migrating
they fly during the night and rest and eat
during the day. Under favorable condi-
tions they fly quite distance above the
city, but last evening the air was light and
they few low. This condition and the
cloudy sky hewildered them and the pow
erful electric lights attracted them. As
they neared the tall masts thew were
blinded by the light, and flew against the
wires and maSts with such force that they
were killed by the concussion- 1t is a pop.
ular fallacy that they are killed BY
shock of electricity from the wires Birds
follow q certain route in migrating, and
this city seems to be in the line of great
deal Of bird travel A close observer can
on quiet night at this time of the wear,
hear for hours the chirp of myriads OF
birds wiuging their way southwark. The
warblers that are now migrating make
about thirty miles an hour from dark to
daylight, bu; some birds that traverse
this route go at speed of eighty miles an
hour, notably pigeons and some species of
ducks. The birds seemed pewiidered in
ell sections last night A locomotive en-
tering the Union Depot from the v est had
layer of dead birds on the pilot, and en-
gineers OF south bound trains were sn.
noyed by birds flying apparently toward
the headlights, and striking continually
against the cab.D

FISH AND MERMAID.
Unique Costume Worn by a New York
Belle At Fish Dinner.


A fish dinner has been the fashionable
novelty of the week. 1t had numerous
predecessors during Lent at a restaurant
where, IN fancy or reality, the chefis Won
drously expert in cooking fish. 1t has
been considerable of fad to get up parties
to dine at this place, where astoundinglv
high prices helped the exclusiveness of the
indulgence. The feasts have been curiosi-
ties of cuisine and cost, but this one is re-
garded as a climax. Not only was the
menu unique, but so also was the costume
of one of the bellies who graced the occa-
sion. The private dining-roo was turned
into bower of bright green. with sea
weeds in profuSiou and quaint en-
belliShments of shells, while borrowed pict-
ures OF pisciculture and water completed
the aquatic decoration. However, it was
in one of the elaborate toilets that a clever
conceit was most remarkably carried out,
The wearer was pretty girl belonging TO
distinguished family. He hair was
loosened and embellished with sea grass:
necklace and bracelets were pearls and
coral: the sleeveless and low-cut corsage
was delicate pink satin, shading off into
the green of draperies fashioned in artistic
stimulation of a mernlaid's lower half The
scalinesS of fish was initiated bv means
of beadwork, the skirt was narrow. and a
short train was shaped like the tail of a
fish. The design had been realized BY
famous Sn-dressmaker, but the girl got
credit for the original idea, and is conss-
quently famous socially.

COOKERY OUTLETS.

BREAD-cRUMBs make a lighter and fan
more digestible crust for pudding than the
pastry in which they are ordinarily baked
SLICES of stale bread from which the crust
has been rasped or pared are an excellent
substitute for pastry for apple dumplngs,
especially for children or adults whose di.
gestive organs are not strong.
! A DELICIOUS SAVIOR is impaired by putting
into beef soup a whole onion with dozen
whole cloves stuck into it Peel the onion,
but don't trim off the top so the layers will
break apart in boiling. Leave out in serv.
