The Sultan's Curiosities.

One cannot be surprised to hear that
the sultan thinks of turning his innumer-
able curiosities into money. Those who
have been allowed to visit the Dar-es-
Saadet and st. Irene-a rare privilege
nowadays-have been wondering ever
since, probably, what motive or super
stition has checked his majesty so long.
Nor is it altogether surprising that
London jeweler of position should hesi-
tate to accept the charge of valuing these
miscellaneous hoards-a dozen experts
of the most consummate assurance would
find more than they could deal with
there. One thing is certain-that no.
body can form an idea how much this
astonishing collection is worth. We
may suppose, from the choice of jew
eler to advise him, that the sultan puts
most value on his gems. Certainly they
are SO many and so huge that all the
crown treasures of Europe could not equal
the display-if only they are genuine.
But there is grave doubt in that ques-
ton, to begin with. Since the gates have
been closed to all but a few favored Wis
itors, there has been no effective super
vision of the guardians, who, it must be
supposed, are not paid more punctually
than other officials. 1t was on their
complaint of purloining strangers that
the old facilities were withdrawn; and
some think that they had motive quite
different from honest indignation in that
protest.
When those museums are overhauled,
however, thousands of objects more pre-
cious than gold or jewels will be un-
earthed. AS an instance, Hebrew sue
ceeded in stealing three old helmets from
st. Irene, just before the doors were
closed, and sold them to an English gen.
tleman resident at Pera for less than a
hundred francs apiece. This gentleman
parted with one for more than a thou
sand pounds.-Chicago Herald.

Telesraphy by Cann on Sound.

Guns have for some years been used
with most satisfactory results for fog
signaling on the Swedish coast. Their
signals have been heard as far as twelve
nautical miles, which we believe is a
greater distance than the signal from a
siren can be heard. A new gun has Just
been manufactured and stationed at
Hohne Gadd, in Sweden, Commander
Engstrom having furnished the drawings
for this as well as the previous guns.
The one in question is made of best
wrought Sandyiken Bessemer steel at
the Stafsjo Engineering company. 1t is
10 feet long and the caliDer is 60 millime-
tres. The breechloading mechanism is
of Commander Engstrom's design and
allows of firing from twenty to thirty
shots per minute. 1t will thus be possi-
BILE to fire letters according to the Morse
alphabet, one shot being dot, and two
shots close together dash.
OF this system of signaling more may
be heard by and by. The breech loading
mechanism can be taken out and to pieces
in less than minute, and without the
use of any tools, and also put together
without any. The cartridges can be used
from 100 to 300 times. The gun rests on
a gun carriage of wood and is placed in
small hole in the wall. The shed or house
is very conveniently arranged for the
men, with accommodation for retilling
the cartridges, etc. The gun, with 13G
brass cartridges, spare ports and ammu
milton for $1,000 shots, has only cost e275
The gun can probably stand some 10000
shots, so the cost for shot, exclusive OF
powder, will be only about 2d.-Engi

Aunt Katy's low laugh rang out again as
she replied: "My dear Myrtle, Mrs. Monteith,
this naughty dame who doesn't associate
with the laboring classes, was once my
kitchen girl She began by washing pots
and kettles, but as she was neat and quick
promoted her to the care of the china
closet and diningroom after time, where
she attacted the attention of Young grocer'S
clerk, who married her. Her family were
miserably poor, and felt sorry for the girl,
and did all could to help her, but she was
always proud and VAIN, and, after her mar
riage, she cut loose from her family entirely,
and l do not suppose she would recognize
one of her own sisters now"
"But how did Mr.. Montelth get his
wealth." asked Mrs. Hervey, after lifting
her hands and cxclaiming in her astonish-
ment at the story.

ton, not always strictly honorable, either,

Sam Tyack, the enterprising lessee Of
the syndicate, broke into natural cave
in the mine a few days ago, about 200
feet from the surface, and discovered
many things of interest to the student of
archaeology. The miners were putting
in hole, when the drill suddenly disap-
peared, much to their astonishment. A
couple of holes of less depth were then
drilled and fired, which made an aper-
ture through which the men entered a
chamber, about forty feet square and
quite as high, the sides and roof of
which were chalcedony bulged out in all
sorts of grotesque and fantastic shapes.
Sammy entered first, and, swinging his
candle around, caught sight of score of
objects that startled him. "Come in,
boysv" he exclaimed. "Here's bloody
anatomical museum"
They crawled in and participated in
Sans astonishment, for which there was
ample cause, as the interior of the cave
flashed with the iridescence of million
as if the glittering stars in the armament
had come down to hold high carnival
and flash themselves through lenses of
variegated hues.
Exploring further, they found still
more cause for wonder. Petrifactions
of animals, birds and reptiles abounded.
There were great owls and monstrous
bats, and several snakes as hideous as if
endowed with life, as they were many,
many ages ago before Bodie Bluff was
created, and when the present site of
Mono's metropolis was closely dotted
with the vents of thermal springs, from
the accretions of which millions of dol
lars in bullion have been given to the
commercial world. Mr.. Tyack has re-
moved several of these petrifactions in
perfect form. intending to forward them
to Professor Irelan, chief of state mining
bureau, who will highly appreciate them.
The few who have been permitted to
view this interesting chamber of antiqui-
ties were almost benumbed with aston
ishment.-Home (Cal.) Index.

escort: "Poor fellow, his voice must

Riddled by this double-barreled In

up street, which runs parallel with tho
Pennsylvania tracks for few blocks.
At the first crossing he turned 10 the
right and passed over the confusion OF
rails ut the imminent risk Of his life.
There is no moro dangerous place on the
face Of the earth, but Drane was In q
condition OF mind where collision with q
shifting engine would have been q rc-
lief to his feelings.
A freight train was being made up on
q side track, and Drane crawled along
in the shadow OF 1t till he came to car
which looked as II 1t might be entered.
He was on the point Of trying 1t, when
q figure appeared from the shadows.
