Queer Articles of Food.

WHERE THEY EAT NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
WEST INDIAN LUXURY.
From the Gentleman's Magazine.
In South America the inhabitants eat every
thing, even serpents and lizards Humboldt
has there seen even children drag enormous
centipedes out of their holes and crunch them
up. Puppies are choice food ON the Missouri
and Mississippi, and at Emaraldi the tid-bit is
a roasted monkey. The flesh of the larger
animals Is appreciated variousy. in Arabia the
horse, in India the elephant, and in Egypt the
camel. The Chinese taste is for cats. dogs.
rats, and serpents, while bears paws and birds
nests are dainties. But the Pariahs of Hindos-
tan have still stronger stomachs, for they con-
tend with the dogs, vultures, and kites for the
putrld carrlon. The nearest approach to this
remarkable taste is afforded by the inhabitants
of Cochin China, who prefer rotten eggs to
fresh ones. At Terracina guest will be asked
whether he prefers land or water eel In the
West Indies a large caterpillar found on the
palm tree Is esteemed luxury. while the edible
nests of the Java swallows are so rich dainty

THOUGHT HER A CHAMBERMAID
A Texas General Fails to Recognize an
English Countess.

Interview with Jno. oakford in New York Star
''When ex-President Pierce visited England
| after his retirement" said Mr.. Oakford, 81
| happened to be living at Sydenham, few
miles out of London. 1 had taken charming
villa near the crystal palace for year; in fact,
the grounds adioined those of the palace.
They comprised only five acres, but the skill
of Sir Joseph Paxton, who had designed the
grounds OF the crystal palace, had also laid
out my five acres, and by winding roads, groves
of oaks, splashing fountains and other de-
vices, had made them seem at least hun
dred."
'How did the ex-President enjoy his visit to
England2"
He was like schoolboy off on a holiday.
He was delighted with everything. 1 never
shall forget the day gave him q dinner at
Greenwich. We rode down in an open car
riage, and the ex-President was so ELUSIVE on
the occasion that the very bows on the streets
noticed it. He threw his arms around my
neck, and in this strange fashion we drove
down Plccadilly, and was really ashamed Of
the undlgnifled conduct of our distinguished
countryman. Gen. Campbell, of Texas, whom
Pierce had appointed American consul at Lon
don, was living near town, and we went to the
Derby together. The general was an old
campaigner, had fought in the Texan war of
independence, and although nearly eighty
years Olu dt tue time ne was IN EnglaUu, WAS
as straight as an Indian and as game as a
Mohawk. When he arrived in England,
Beverly Tucker, who was at the time our con-
| sui at Liverpool. had very kindly accompanied
him up to London, after securing rooms for
him at Morley's hotel. They arrived in town
about O'Clock one evening, and, after stop
ping In their rooms only long enough to
make a hasty toilet. they descended to
the dining room. After dinner, he went
at once to his room, while Tucker re-
manned below to give some instructions about
the baggage. Going upstairs in a couple of
minutes, he found General Campbell in a
strange room parleying with lacy. 1t ap-
peared that he had missed his room, and see
ing lady enter one he had followed her, and
Tucker heard him say, he came up: My
good woman, can you tell me where room 60
isT Tucker drew him out of the apartment,
and whispered to him: DO you know who
that lady is?' No; thought she was one of
the chambermaids of the hotel You have
made dreadful mistake. That lady is the
Countess of Erroll.' and, before Tucker could
stop him, the old general had rushed back and
apologized for his mistake. saying that he had
taken her for q chambermaid. When Tucker
met Campbell next morning he told him that
the unfortunate mistake of the previous even
ing had been communicated to the Earl of
Enroll, and that he was terribly angry that his
lady had been taken for a chambermaid, and
was going to challenge the American who he'd
been guilty of such conduct. L will fight
said the old general, but really had no inten-
ton to insult the lady, After keeping up the
joke for some time, Tucker told Campbell that
the duel was only a hoax"

A Postmaster Warned.

THE PERSON WHO Is SUPPOSED TO HAVE SENT
THE NOTICE FINED FIFTY DOLLARS.
An Indianapolis special to the Philadelphia
Press says: Twelve good men, constituting a
Madison county jury, have determined that
$50 shall be the fine for posting White Cap
notice in that community. The postmaster at
Myers, Chas. Mckee, found on his door, some
time ago. the following:

"MASY SIrrIzENs."
The Photographic was a rude picture of a
man dangling from the limb of a tree, rope
around his neck. Mckee suspected that the
author of this notice was Abe Doyle, a wealthy
farmer and an influential democratic politician,
whom he had prosecuted. The trial. which
has just closed, had been in progress a week.
The jury deliberated all night over the law
and evidence, and gave the plaintiff a verdict
for damages to the amount of $50.

A Farewell Banquet to Mr. Phelps.

SAY GOODBYE.
Mr.. Phelps, the United States minister to
England, was the chief guest at a banquet
given by the Fishmongers' company in Lon
don last evening. Mr.. Phelps, in a speech,
said that the only complaint he had to bring
against this country was that the people had
made it more difficult for him to say goodbye
to them than to perform any duty that he had
had to do since he came. He hoped often to
have the pleasure of seeing in one country, if
not in another. his numerous English friends.
Therefore. in saying farewell he would adopt
the poets sentiments, Say not goodnight, but
in some happier day bid me good morning.
Sir Charles upper, Lord Coleridge, Consul
General Waller, Mr.. Henry White, secretary of
the American legation; Gen. Stewart, Sir
Francis de Winton and host of distinguished
persons were present at the banquet Mr..
Phelps caused much laughter by amusing ref

Pugilistic Lord Cecil.
THE ENGLISH PREMIEB's SON GETS THE wo,
FIST FIGHT AND RESIGNS.

TIE ENGLISH PREMIEKs SON GETS THE WORST OF
FIST FIGHT AND RESIGNS
The resignation of Captain Lord William
Cecil, son of the Marquis of Salisbury. from
the Grenadier guards has caused great stir in
British military circles, according to a London
dispatch. No reason for the resignation was
given to the public, but it is asserted that its
withdrawal was due to fist fight which his
lordshlp recently had with brother officer at
the knights Bridge barracks. From the re-
ports In circulation il IL gathered that Lord
Cecil got very much the worst of the encounter.
and. besides receiving two black ewes. sustained
other injuries at the hands of his antagonist
which will necessitate his retirement from pub
lie view for some time. 1t is understood that
some OF the radical members of the house of
commons have resolved to question the secre-
tary OF war concerning the affair when parlia-
ment meets.
Right on the heels of this story comes the re-
port Of another fight besween a major and a
private at Portsmouth, in which the private
was badly beaten. The major, it is stated,
overheard the private during parade express
TO one Of his comrades his burning desire TO
punch the officers head. After the parade the
major sent for the private and afforded him an
opportunity to crafty his desire, but the
subaltern's physical strength and pugilistic
skill were not equal to the measure of his am
bition, and he is now quartered in the hospital.

Mary Anderson's Kiss.

From the Boston Transcript.
A few days ago, as Miss Anderson was pass
ing through one OF the great dry goods stores,
the statesmen recognized her and whispered to
each other:
There goes Mary Anderson!'
little cash boy, hearing the remark too late
to see her face, exclaimed:
''Oh. why didn't you let me know in time? I
haven't got money enough to see her play, but
might have looked at her."
The lady had not passed out Of hearing.
Turning back she stopped and kissed the boy.
There, my lad" she said, lyon cannot only
say that you have seen Mary Anderson. but
that she has kissed You"

JOHN L. SULLIVAN DRUNK AGAIN-A Boston
special to the Philadelphia Times says: John L.

thing with him, it was said a number of his
friends had persuaded him to return to New
York, and he was shipped there ON an after

A Set Of Books Worth $50, 900.

From the Philadelphia Record
Probably the most costly set Of books in this
city is the twenty-nine volume edition Of Mot
ley's Rise Of the Dutch Republic" owned by
Mr.. Clarence II. Clark, the banker. These
volumes are said to have cost their owner
$4,000. Originally the set consisted Of nine
handsomely printed volumes, which have been
extended by the insertion of some 2. 500 por-
traits, engravings, autographs and maps, max
ing the present elaborate and costly work. The
illustrations were inserted in appropriate
places opposite the text, so that the scenes of
the battles and persons figuring in them could
be better represented and appreciated than by
the type alone. The set is not quite filed with
illustrations, however, and Mr.. Clark is still
diligently seeking after more.. material
