an epoch In the life of the individual.

William Benjamin Rowland, a cart
man, recently died of phthisis at Lon
don hospital, and when the doctors
made a post mortem they found a steel
knife blade run into his skull and broke
off there. II had been there so long
that the bone had healed over the spot
where it had entered. The blade had
passed between the convolutions of the
brain, which was uninjured. The near
est incident that could account for the
presence of the blade in the mans brain
had occurred nine months before. when
he was thrown from a wagon and had
his head severely hurt. Philadelphia

In a paper read before the British
Scientific association on the Hum
boldtia laurifolia as an ant harboring
plant, Professor Bower observed that
the peculiar relations between plants
had been the subject of considerable
observation from time immemorial.
The literature on the subject could be
traced as far back as 1850, and Captain
Cook. in describing his voyages, dis
tinctiy alluded to the matter. In one
place he said that he had seen on n
certain tree a number of black ants,
which perforated the twigs, and, after
eating out the pith, formed n lodging
in the cavity, and yet the tree contin-
ued in a ilourishing condition. In
tropical climates there were many
plants pre-eminently associated with
ants. The Italian botanist Picari con
tended that the relationship was ad-
vantagcous alike TO the plants and to
the ants. The former afforded shelter
to the latter, and in some cases supplied
them with food.

The Son of the Secretary Of STATE vietio
ofthe "GriPpe
Death has again entered the family Of Sec

Mr.. Walker Blaine was taken i'll on Thurs

taken ill again, and developed symptoms Of
acute pneumonia. The disease progressed
rapidly, in spite of constant medical care
He was delirious and insensible during Tues
day and Wednesday and died Wednesday
evening.
Walker Blaine was born in Augusta, Me-.
on May 8, 1855. He first came to Washing

Imitation Tsrfapin.

It is possible to cook little squirrels SO
deliciously like terrapin that it takes an
epicure to tell the difference. This is
the recipe of Mrs Ward, of Washington
Skin, draw and dress the squirrels and
cut of the legs at the shoulder and hip
joints, saving the rest Of the body for
soup, fricassee or a pie. Only the legs
are to be used for the imitation terrapin.
It Is 6 somewhat remarkable fact that
the leg bones of squirrels are shaped like
those of terrapin. Put the joints over
the fire in a little water and stew very
slowly until tender. Take out the meat
and keep hot while you strain the broth,
of which there must be pint for one
pair of squirrels. Put the saucepan
over the FIRE with heaping tablespoon
full Of the best butter and scant table
spoonful Of -four; stir until it bubbles,
gradually adding the broth until
smooth sauce is formed. Season with
salt and red pepper. add the squirrel
meat, heat to boiling: draw to one side

with flowers, and although in the middle Of
of January one stepred from the cold street
into bit of the tropics, brilliant with gas
and electricity, fragrant with perfume, and
filled with bewitching waltz music. The
parlors were set with palms and great hedges
of Easter lillies with bouquets of large roses
in all the vases. In the ballroom the great
mirrors were covered with curtains of aspara-
gus vines and smilax. looped back with roses,
while knots of orchids OF all kinds hung in
middle like the tassels.
The fire place was brilliant with scarlet azal-
las, while the staircase in the hall was mass
of white azalias and green vines twined in all

profusion of flowers has seldom been seen in
Washington outside of the White House.

Special Washington Lefter.l
One of the finest national palaces at the
Paris exposition of 1889 was that built BY
MEXICO and filled with tue varied and rare
products of that country. In Washington
the Mexican. legation occupies the front rank
socially and diplomatically, for it is admitted
that Minister Romero is the strongest and
shrewdest man Mexico has ever sent to
the United States. He has been at his post
ever since the civil war, and is one Of the
longest in-service diplomats at the capitol.
He has increased his popularity and divided
bis honors by marrying Virginia lady,
who is as amiable and gracious as she d
winning and pretty. Nine Romero pos
sesses what the French APPLY term polite
ness of the heart" She receives her guests
with such ease and cordially that all who
pass within the portals of the Mexican le-
cation ut once feel at home and welcome.
The most brilliant diplomatic entertainment
of the season of 1880 was given on the even
ing of the I'D inst. BY Senior and Nine. RO-
nero in honor Of the delegates Of the Inter
national American Conference, now in ses-
sion in Washington. At least one thousand
