Sea Anchors.

Experiments have lately been tried at
Dover with so-called sea anchor, in
vented by Captain Waters. This ap-
paratus consists of canvas bag about four
feet in diameter and five feet deep, with
either a strong hoop to hold it open or il
square boltcd frame to answer the same
purpose. The bag is attached to beam,
or float, in such manner that it lies just
below the surface of the water, and stout
rope forms the connection between it and
the bow of the vessel employing it. The
object of this sea anchor is to bring boat
or ships head to the sea when in danger OF
from getting broadside toward
waves. There is nothing very new in the
idea, for such contrivance has frequently
been extemporised with advantage. The
veteran aeronaut Green also constructed
an anchor to hold balloon near the
surface of the sea, which was almost
identical in form to this one.

One Of the Liberty Tree" Lanterns.

An interesting reminder Of the pre-
Revolutionary period has just been pre-
sented to the Bostonian Society by the
widow and children of the late Joseph
H. Zimmerman, of Roxbury, in the shape
of one of the lanterns that were used to
illuminate the old Liberty Tree on Essex
street, on May 20, 1865, in celebration of
the repeal of the Stamp Act. The news
of the repeal reached Boston by brigan-
tine from London, which came into the
harbor on May 16. A public meeting
was at once held in Faneuil Hsll, and the
evening Of the 18th was set aside for a
general illumination. On that evening
the principal feature was q pyramid OF
fire on the Common, and few lanterns
were hung on the Liberty Tree; but the
citizens, feeling that they had not done
enough to honor the spot where the agi-
tation against the Stamp Act had origin
ated and had its growth, decided to illum-
mate the tree Of The next evening, May
20. On that evening 1OS lanterns were
hung upon the tree, and the one now de-
posted in the Old State House was hung
''on the west bough, opposite Frog
Lane" now Boylston street, as appears
by an inscription on the botton.-Boston
Post.

Three Men Attacked by WeaSels.

George Gray, an employe OF. Farmer
Bull, near Pine Mill, Penn, went out in
one of the farmers fields to haul away
some stone piles that had been lying in
the field since last fall. He had thrown
on the drag but few stones from one OF
the piles when weasel jumped out of
the pile. Gray kicked at the animal as
it was passing him, and the fierce little
brute turned on the man and sprang for
his throat. Its teeth closed on Gray's
flannel shirt at his chest. In tearing the
weasel loose it set its teeth into Gray's
arm, tearing the flesh down for three
inches. The taste of blood seemed to in
crease the fury of the weasel, and Gray
had all he could do to keep it from spring
ing on his throat. He at last succeeded
in stunning the weasel by kick, and
was about to hurry to the house to have
his wounds dressed when six other weas-
els, one after another, trooped from the
stone pile and made combined attack on
Gray. They swarmed upon him, biting
and tearing his flesh on the less, arms, ,and
body. Fearful for his life, Gray turned
and fed, followed by the weasels, which
chased him clear to the house, over half
a mile away, inficting still further wounds
with their sharp teeth.
Gray's shouts for help brought a son OF
his employer and another man out of q
barn, where they were they were. thresh-
ing, and the two ran to Gray's aid. Even
these e-enforcements did not daunt the
weasels, and before they were routed,
which was not until three of them were
killed, they had inflicted many ugly
wounds on their foes, and the three men
were covered with blood from head to
foot. Gray was confined to his bed. 1t
is we'll known that weasels will fight to
the death when cornered, or will attack
sleeping person, but for them to fight
three men in an open field, assuming the
aggressive at the start, is something un-
heard of before in that region of hunters
ind trappers.

A Glimpse at Russian Misery.

In the Russian district of Kola band
of Bohemians were recently lynched by a
crowd of Russian villagers. These
Bohemians had stolen two children in
the village of Marskaj, and had blinded
them both for the purpose of using them
for soliciting aims. Such cases are very
frequent in Russia. In the same district
of Kola, where the winter was this year
exceptionally severe, the wolves have
given a great deal of trouble. On satur-
day last the mail coach was attacked by
an enormous pack, horses, driver and
passengers being devoured. At the same
village of Marskaj an old farm woman
gave battle to huge wolf who was carry
ing off one of her fattest pigs, which she
had just killed for sailing. The old
woman pursued the wolf and helped him
to the knife. The pig was reserved for
the sailing tub, but the old farm woman
has only six fingers left to do the picking
with.-Times-Democ,at.

Profit in Flowers.

The florists must do q profitable bust
ness or there would pot be so many OF
them. To judge by the prices charged
one would say the business was very re-
munerative. 1t is not generally known
that the leading florists sell their old stock
to the sidewalk venders, who underseu
them from thirty three to fifty per cent.
The florists claim that only inexperienced
people will buy from the sidewalk vend-
ers, even if they undersell them, because
their flowers, worn and faded, will not
last, but will fall to pieces almost when
touched. The florists preserve their floral
beauties in refrigerators, and they Will
not last second handling entailed by the

Turkeys Fed Oh Gold.

Mrs. Fritz, who is employed as cook
in John w. Boulden's family, purchased
a turkey at one of the city markets. Mrs.
Fritz in removing the craw discovered a
small gold nugget. She disposed of the
nugget next morning to a jeweler, re-
ceiving $3.50 for it. All the turkeys in
the markets OF this city were raised in
Fresno County. Here is clew for the
gold hunter, which, if successfully worked
up, might lead to fortune, as we think
it very improbable that the keeper OF any

A GastronOmic Freak.

Bon-rivants in London are being treated
to a new sensation. There is now Gas
tronomic Club established in Oxford street,
and the members of it will have the oppor-
tunity to acquire an unexampled practical
knowledge of the way the world lives;
without being put to the expense Of travel
to obtain it. The newc club began its career
with an Italian dinner, strictly limited to
the dishes and wines native to Rome and
Florence, and served, we may suppose, by
King Humbert's subjects. If the plan is
followed until the nations of the world are
exhausted, no one can complain of any lack
of variety in the fare at Oxford street. But
perhaps when it comes to China or to India
the line will be drawn; certainly III these
cases the native dinner ought not to be un-
dertaken without preliminary educating
proccss.-B0ston Post.

Modern Steamship Construction.

Talking with an old ocean traveller
about the recent changes in steamships
and their accommodations for travel dur
ing the coming season he told me that it
has recently been discovered that the
large vessels arc the cheapest in the end,
for, although their first cost is enormous
and they are laid up in the winter time,
they can take over vast crowds Of pas
scngers when Americans are rushing off
to Europe. The interior arrangements Of
the Etruria offered many improvements
which all the later ships have followed.
Her stateroom partitions are removable
and rooms can be erected in almost every
part of the ship. During May, June and
July she carries no stecragc passengers,
every available inch being occupied by
the cabin passengers. In the slack season
this space is occupied by cargo, steerage
passengers and for other purposes, and
the removable stateroom is now feature
of all the new boats,-AeU Tork Star.

The Oldest Bank Notes.

The oldest bank notes are the "fying
money!" or 'sconvcnient money!" first
issued in China, 2697 B. c. Originally
these notes were issued by the Treasury,
but experience dictated q change to the
banks under Government inspection and
control. A writer in provincial paper
says that the early Chinese "grecnbacks"
were in all essentials similar to the
modern bank notes, bearing the name OF
the bank, date of issue, the number of
the note, the signature of the official
issuing it, indications of its value in
figures, in works and in the pictorial
representation in coins or heaps of coins
equal in amount to its face value, and
notice of the pains and penalties of
counterfeiting. Over and above all was
laconic exhortation of industry and
thrift: "Producc all you can; spend
with economy" The notes were printed
in blue ink on paper made from the fiber
of the mulberry tree. One issued in
1889 B. C. is still carefully preserved in
the Asiatic MUSEUM at St. Petersburg.

Wanted an Object Lesson in Hanging.

It is said that when the Shah of Persia
last visited England he was taken to
Newgate and shown, among other artl-
cles of virtu, the gallows. In this engine,
he invinccd the greatest interest, and,
expressing desire to see how it worked,
asked the Governor to hang a man. The
Governor explained that he had nota man
ready for the experiment, whereupon the
Shah expressed his contempt. Hang
one of these" he said, pointing to his
suite. Needless to say the Governor did
not comply.-San- Francisco Chronicle. !
