A FOWL YARN.

Col. Sam. Norris, who returned
TO Honolulu by the steamer w. G..
Hall yesterday, from Kahu!iu Ranch,
Hawaii, told fowl yarn this morn
ing, about an honorable member Of
the Legislature of two years ago.
When Col. Norris last went up to
Hawaii he bought eleven turkeys
for six dollars, and two pea-fowls
for sixteen dollars, from the -aforc-
said honorable gentleman. The
Colonel took the turkeys with him,
leaving the pea-fowls to be shipped.
Arriving at Kahuku and supposing
the turkeys to be civilized, says the
Colonel, l ordered the feathcred
creature to be let loose in the
orchard. Instead Of doing what was
expected, the turkeys ran away, and
when last seen were five miles from
the orchard. And as to the pea
fowls he never got them. The moral
to this yarn is that you cant always
count your chickens even after they
are hatched,

Basket Work of the Indians.

The annual report of the National mu- senm for 1884 contains several interesting ethnological papers. Professor O. T. Ma son gives a sketch of the basketry of North American aborigines, which is amply illustrated with drawings of speci- mems and enlarged portions of the basket work, in order to illustrate exactly the manner of weaving. Mason. discusses the methods in use all along the coast of western America from the Arctic ocean to z slifornia. in the interior, and among the tribes of the Atlantic coast and distin- guishes three types of basketry, which he &calls the twined, the coiled and the woven tones. The first is most frequently found on the northwest coast. Coiled basket i. work is almost exclusively used by the horthefn Time and by the Apache, while Enany tribes apply all methods of manu- >facture. A great difficulty in determining the area of characteristic forms is encoun- tered through the deficiency of the meth ods of many collectors, and the frag- mentary state of collections; many speci- mems which are seemingly characteristic of one tribe having ill reality far wider distribution, while other characteristic types are wanting in the collections Science

4 Buried City.

That one of the greatest of all of the cities built by the Bnddhists in the east should have been forgotten and lost in the depths of trackiess forest for LOGO years is fact that lays powerful hold on the imagination. Readers of MT. Ferguson and Sir Emerson Tennent have heard something of the architectural won ders of Anuradhapura, the ancient "city of granite, '" in the island of Ceylon, and of the unparalleled immunity of its struc- lures and rich monumental remains from the ravages of the spoiler and the religious fanatic
 Since they wrote great progress has been made in the way of clearing the jungle. Mir Burrows, who has lately visited the city, giyes in Macmillan s Magazine a remarkable account of the progress made in local archaeological re- searches since this marvellous record of the past was accidentally rediscovered. Ahe ruins at present disclosed are de- scribed as already extending for a dis tance of at least four miles by two and a half. The wonderful Cingalese palace, supposed to have been built about the commencement of the Christian era, of which Mir. Burrows gives an elaborate description, was discovered only last year. So far the clearings aAd excavations are stated to yield results which entirely agree with the most authentic account extant from an eye witness of ancient Anuradhapura-the Chinese traveller, Fla Hian, who visited it in the early part of tce Fifth century.-Chicago Times.

A Unioue and Famous Pearl.

No explanation ever has been, or ever will be, forthcoming of the extraordinary freak of nature in the formation of the famous pearl known as the southern cross. Originally discovered at Roeburn, in western Australia, it consists of nine pearls adhering together in the form of Latin cross, seven in the shaft and two ill rthe arms, one on each side of the shaft, nearly opposite the second pearl from the top. The pearls are slightly compressed, like peas in pod, and no trace of any artificial junction can be observed. It has been suggested that c fragment of sea weed may have got int he shell and formed the frame Of the construction The pearls are of fine quality, though slightly misshapen at parts, and the value Of the gem is very high. Its character is unique, and so filled the owner-an Irish man named Kelley-with surerstitious awe that for long time he was induced to hide it away and keep his possession of it a secret.-Boston Transcript

"I had very singular experience Inst Sunday" said $ tf;iGesnlan, whose shop in Oakland is 2dorDed by the sign, ''Orni- thological Rarities, 1" but who, on pinch, would sell dog or rabbit. II was walking on the beach, not very far from the Cliff house, ard 1 had just noticed that an usually large number of sea gulls were flying over the sands, vixen a hard sub stance struck me violently upon the head and staggered me Luckily my hat was very thick and ! am blessed with toler;l- bly, solid skull. So I soon recovered my self, and l was looking about to ascertain what had hit me, when 1 was greatly startled by weird and ghostly fluttering of wings foot above me. \ great gray gull had narrowly escaped aGghting upon my shoulders. He just succeeded in check ing his impetuouS descent as his feet al- most touched me. With queer kind of half frightened cry he was again into the air. But what had brought him so close to mel l soon found out. Lying on the sand was the thing that had given me that blow upon the head. It was large black mussel, and the sea gull had dropped it from dizzy height upon my unoGend- ing scalp.
 have studied tue habits of these DlruS pretty careIullS, ana knOW very we'll why he had done it. He was trying to get at his dinner, and as the shell Of the mussel was still unbroken, and wished to see him try again, walked couple of hundred yards away and then turned to watch his movements. Sec ing that the coast was clear, he quickly flew back to the place where the mussei had fallen, seized it in his beak and, again rising high into the air, he let it drop. He followed it closely as it fell, keeping almost beside it during the greater part of the descent, and only mo6eraJing his downward rush when be was in danger of dashing himself upon the beach. The mussel struck the sand, but the shell was still unbroken, and, indeed, it was very evident to me that the soft ground that received it would never lay it open. Then I flung the muSsel to distance, and the gull, seeming to take this as hint that my head was not a chopping block, seized his troublesome delicacy and flew away. l saw him turn @ little inland, rise once more to a great height, dart swiftly down and then wing his way out to sea. l found that many stones lay at the place of his last descent; so, doubtless, his per severance was at length rewarded, and ha had gone off to some lonely rock to dine" San Francisco Examiner.
