The Cost of Human Life.

The great monsters of mechanical
skill and genius call for the sacrifice OF
great deal Of life and limb in theil
construction. The greater the en-
cheering feat the more extensive is the
loss of life. In the construction of the
Eitfel tower, for instance. twenty-sis
lives were lost, according to the official
returns of the French Government; but
it is said that this number would be
largely augmented if the names were
given of men who died from injuries
received during the construction of the
tower, and of others who were killed
and whose deaths were not reported
owing to the hue and cry which was
raised after the first two dozen. lives
had been sacrificed on the great
structure. The number of men who
were injured during the construction
of the Eifel tower has been placed. at
5000. This enormous showing is &C.
counted for by the fact that everv in.
jury was reported and registered which
received treatment from the official
surgeons. When man bruised his
finger he went to a government sur
geon to have it dressed, and clumsy
workman thus got on the list a dozen
or two times year. Serious injuries
We're very small proportion Of the
whole. On the great Forth bridge in
Scotland list of forty lives lost has
been published, but there is no record
Of injuries. N. 7. Sun.

He Knew Only Six Men.

The other day, says Chatter, a n. Y.
boy asked his father if he could not go
across the street and sit up with a play
mates dead fathers body.
why do you do that?'' asked the
parent. THAT is not nice thing for
a child to do.
':Ah, well, father said he, s.Mr.
Behrens, though he was so wealthy and
lived in such comfort, knew only six
men,
knew only six men!' said the
father; what foolish boy you are!
How could man live in a city of l.
100000 people Gin which 2, 900, 900 peo-
pie assemble daily and know only six
men?'
However, the boy sat up two nights
in that house of grief, and the follow
ing day the father went to the funeral
and introduced himself to the widow.
He had lived opposite her for twenty
years, but he took that opportunity to
introduce himself to her.
Well" said she, my dear Mr..
Carl, you can scarcely estimate the
kindness you do to a poor woman in
presenting yourself on this sad oc-
fasion. We will only have two coaches,
because my husband only knew Six
men.
Only knew six menu said Mr.. Carl
How is thatPn
Il do not know how twas. I" she said.
HE was born in this city, but he was
the last Of his race, and he loved his
violin and his books, and in the day
time he kept the accounts of large
corporation downtown, IN whose
office he had a little glass box where
he sat at a desk, and SO he knew only
six men,,

How slowly the light came. It was

He felt the shock. The building
trembled. Something had struck Il
heavily, and it was being carried dowr
into the, raging flood.
1t was time for him to act. To re-
main where he was would be death.
He flung up the window and looked
out. One thing he had learned well in
years gone by-to swim. It seemed
almost madness to think of trusting
himself to such a current, but there was
nothing else to be done.
The light was nearing him more
swiftly now, although it was apparent.

leaped into the surging water and
struck out for the shore.
Something below the surface of the
waves caught him and dragged him
swiftly down the stream. He struggled
with all his might to get away but in
vain. One of his legs was held as in a
vice. His head whirled.
Then a flash of light fell upon him.
In another moment a strong hand
grasped his arm. The rays of the
lantern lighted up the face of his
rescuer.

a Dry Niagara

1t seems almost incredible that at
one time in its history the greatest
and most wonderful waterfall in the
world actually ran dry. Nevertheless
1T is an established fact that this oc-
Cured on March 20, 1854, and for a
few hours scarcely any water passed
over Niagara falls.
TO thoroughly appreciate this as
tonishing phenomenon it should be
remembered that the estimated aver
age amount of water passing over
these fallsis 500, 500 tons per minute
The winter of that year had been
an exceptionally severe one, and ice
OF unusual thicknest had formed on
Lake Erie. The warm spring rains
loosened this CONCEALED mass, and
on the day in question a brisk east
wind drove the ice far up into the
lake. About sunset the wind sudden
~ veered around and blew heavy
gale from the west. This naturally
turned the ice in it's course, and bring
ing it down to the mouth of Niagara
river piled it up in a solid, impene-
trable wall.
So closely was it packed and so
great was its force that in short
time the outlet to the lake was com
pletely choked up, and little or no
water could possible escape. In a
very short space of time the water
below this frozen barrier passed over
the falls, ana the next morning the
people residing in the next neighbor-
hood were treated to most extra
ordinary spectacle.
Theroaring, tum bling rapids above
efalls were almost obliterated, and
nothing but the cold black rocks
were visible in all directions. The
news quickly spread and crowds of
spectators focked to view the scene,
the banks on each side of the river
being lined with people during the
whole day. At last there came a
break in the ice, it was released from
its restraint, the bent up walls of
waters rushed downward and Nj
agara was itself again.-Golden Days.

THE JEWEL oE THE INDIAN COBRA
Explanation of Wonder That Has Long
Puzzled the Naturalist.

The natives Of the jungle say some
cobras carry precious stones about
with them, and at night coil in the
grass to watch them glitter. Prof.
Hensoldt, the Indian traveller, SAYS:
"One night a native called me to see
this wonder. Close to the waters
edge stood an immense tamarind tree,
and within fifty yards of it the cody
halted and mysteriously pointed to the
root of the tree. A foot from the trunk
| observed in the grass a greenish
light, apparently proceeding from a
single point. After a time | could see
the cobra coiled near the foot of the
tree, slowly swaying its head to and
fro in front of the shining object.
Unfortunately I had no gun, and
my guide, who seemed to feel that he
was responsible for my safety, entreat-
ed me so earnestly to let the snake
alone that acceded. Moreover he
promised to bring me this stone within
three days. The cody kept his word,
for the second morning afterward he
brought the stone. He had climbed
the tamarind tree before dark, and
after the snake had taken up his posi-
ton he had emptied bag of ashes up.
on the stone. The frightened reptile
after chasing about for while trying
to find its treasure, had gone off. The
cody remained in his safe position un-
til daylight, when he descended the
tree, dug the stone out of the ashes,
and here it was in my hand.
'.The cobra stone was a semi-trans-
parent water-worn pebble of yellowish
color, about the size of large pea
which in the dark, when previously
warmed, emitted a greenish, phospho-
resent light. I found it to be chloro-
phane, a rara variety of fuorspar
''The mystery is not difficult to ex-
plain. ,Cobras feed on insects and
seem to have an especial liking for
fretlies. Only the male frefies fly
about, and close observer will notice
that constant swarm of the male in
sects will fly near the females, which
sit on the ground and emit an intermit-
tent glowing light. The cobra uses his
phosphorescent stone as decoy fo1
the tirefies. Competition would lead
to the snakes selling and carrying off
the treasure, and habit has become
hereditary. Haaper's Magazine.

some time. and while doing this anu
sed myself looking at the pictures and

whisky. It was a curious looking de-
canter, and on one side was some fancy
lettering which could not make out.
Being rather curious to find out what
it said I lifted the decanter from the
table and tipped it up so that the light
fell on the lettering. It said: 'H you
