The Eagle as an Emblem.

In ancient mythology the eagle was
believed to carry the souls of the dying
to their abode on Mount Olympus, and
was called the Bird of Jove. The eagle
was first taken as a symbol of royal
power by the ancient Etruscans, who
bore It's image upon their standard. In
the year 81 b. c., silver eagle, with
expanded wings, poised on the top of a
spear, with a thunderbolt held in its
claws, was adopted as the military stand
ard to be borne at the head of their
legions by the Romans. At the time of
Hadriau golden eagle was substituted
for the silver one. A headed eagle
was adopted by the Byzantine emperors
as a symbol of their control of both the
east and the west. The double-headed
eagle of Russia was adopted on the mar
riage of Ivan l. with Grecian princess
of the eastern empire; that of Austria
was first used when the Emperor of Ger
many took the title of Roman emperor.
The national standard of Russia bears a
black eagle, that of Poland a white one.
Napoleon I. took golden eagle for his
standard, model of pure gold, and bear
ing a thunderbolt, after the pattern of
the eagle of the Romans. This standard
was disused under the Bourbons, but
was restored by decree of Louis Ma
poleon In 1852. The eagle was first used
on American coins in 1888, on cents and
half cents issued from the Massachusetts
mint. 1t was adopted in the plan of a
national coinage as design upon all gold
coins and on the silver dollar, half
dollar and quarter. The design of the
eagle was at one time suggested for the
national flag, but was abandoned.-De-

His Secret of Longevity.

A Ruthenian, 124 years old, is living
in the town of Belgorod, Russia. His
name is Bogdan Nitchinorenko. He Is
still hale and hearty, only his hearing is
somewhat impaired. He ascribes his old
age to his manner of living. At the age
of twenty-five he became ill, and as there
were no physicians in the neighborhood,
a Tartar practitioner, or ''wise man, }"
was engaged to cure him. For three
weeks he was under the Znakhar's treat
ment until his health was restored. Part
ing from him the Znakhar told him that
if he wished to live long he must never
eat any old or stale food. For fear lest
he fall sick again, Nitc'inorenko OBJ
served this rule scrupulously. He ate
nothing but spring fowl, veal or lamb,
and never touched piece of meat of an
old animal. Even garden fruit he ate
only when it was quite young and fresh !;
he never touched canned or picked food
OF any kind.-Picayune.

So,ltherners Excel in Horsemanship.

The Southerner has been in the saddle
constantly for many generations, and to-
day boys and girls alike ride the colts in
pasture, with only stick to guide them.
In the North these conditions and habits
ceased long ago. Riding is mere fash
ion of very recent origin, though it has
acquired such an impetus that it may
have come to stay.
The Southern seat is practically the
same as the true military seat; and ex-
cept that the bride hand is wont to be
held trifle too high, which is a habit
caught from the high pommel or roll of
blankets or other baggage in front of the
soldier, this seat, when not exaggerated,
is, all things considered, the best for
road-riding. and perhaps would enable a
man to do greater number of things in
the saddle than any other one style. Aud
though the English pigskin is perhaps a
neater and more available rig, the South
erner is, in gaits and style and knowledge
of road work, by far the best model for
us to copy, as his saddle-beast is the best
for us to buy.-Harper's Magazine.

Au Electrical Voting Machine.

In the "Braisserie Flamaude" at Brus-
sells there is exhibited an election ma
chine, invented by NJ. Moreau, Belgian
engineer. The remarkable apparatus
looks like grand piano. In place of
the keyboard there are two rows of but
tons, similar to those used for electric
doorbells. If au elector wishes to vote,
all he has to do is to press one of the
buttons. Above the buttons the names
of the candidates are cen, for each but
ton one name. As there are many cleo
tors, especially In Belgium, who cannot
read, Mr.. Moreau has constructed his ma
chine in such way that photograph
(picture) can eventually appear along
with the names of the candidates. Below
the button rows box is found contain
ing the electrical numbering or counting
machine. Every button registers the
names by ones, tens, hundreds and
thousands. The electrical current is un-
der the box. AS soon as the elector steps
on the platform, which Is part of the ap-
paratus, the electrical current begins to
play. Against fraud and repeating the
inventor has also guarded in making it
impossible for one elector to press twice
at the same button without the intermis-
sion of several seconds. To vote again
he must step from the platform, then
wait few seconds, after which pause
he again can ascend it if the officers al
low it. The secrecy of the ballot is
guarded by screen which shields the
whole apparatus. After election time is
over the box is taken out of the machine
and the result is found as the votes were
already (added) counted by the machine.

Across the Arctic at Two Miles a Day.

AS we have seen, the objects from the
"Jeannette" drifted in three years from
the New Siberian Islands to the west
coast of Greenland. If we assume that
they required one year for the drift
southwark from latitude eighty degrees
north, on the east coast of Greenland,
only two years remain for the rest of the
journey, and this requires speed of no
more than two nautical miles in every
twenty-four hours. This does not seem
too high rate when we remember that
the "Jeanette" drifted at the same speed
during the last half year of her drifting,
and that in the last days before she sank
she drifted at much higher spedl,
which sometimes reached even eight
nautical miles every twenty-four hours.
1t cannot therefore be considered prob
able that we should reach orsn water on
this side of the Pole within two years
after our start from the Siberian side; :;
and if we take provisions for five years
we may consider that we have an ample
margin.-Ftrum.

y The curious fact has just been brought
to light in Kentucky, learns the New
York Post, that from 1857 to 1860 the
State loaned money to individuals. The
interest from this source amounted to
SIG, 12S in 1867, to $21, 179. 80 in 1853,
to S26, 528. 10 in 1859, and in 1860 to
S21, 363.3S. The State Auditors report
for these years shows that many promi-
nept Kentuckians availed themselves of
this means of relief from "the stringency
of the money market" The loans were
all called in 1861, and singularly enough,
both principal and interest were paid in
every instance.

And the twilight fell on lonely land, =
Aud over my soul sorrow new.
And you turned into the world from me
Who watched you with eyes whose hot
tears flowed,
The cruel world which could not sec
That Just begins at the bend of the road.
And a trouble dropped on the silent land
With the darkness unstayed by a moon or
star,
For my hope and my love- and the light
hand in hand.
Followed you into the future afar,
Followed you fain as the heart that sent,
The heart that fingered beneath It's load
As into the great, wide world youNwent,
The world that begins at the end of the
road.
Tonight at the bend of the road stand =
And year has flown and many day, :
And the twilight falls on a lonely land,
For nv love and the light of my hope

And fear forlorn doth my soul forbode.

Driving speedy horse is SO pleasant
and healthful recreation, says Harper's
Weekly, that one is not surprised to learn
that Robert Bonner has spent 5000, 900
of his ample means in following the ad-
vice his physician gave him thirty five
years ago. The money has been used in
acquiring the fastest trotters in this
country, and consequently in the world,
and among his pets have been numbered
such equine kings and queens as Dexter,
Edwin Forest, Joe Elliott, Rarus, Maud
S., and Sunol. No. speedier collection
of horses than those on his farm at Tar
rytown has ever been gathered anywhere,
and it is doubtful if there ever will be
again, for few persons possess Mr.. Bon
ner's taste for fast horses, or the means
to crafty it SO fully if the taste existed.

! New Orleans is at last to have paid
fire department, announces the New
York Post, the city having been always
dependent on a volunteer service. A
particularly commendable feature of the
ordinance bestowing this long-delayed
boon on the inhabitants is the provision
that the officers of the Department shall
hold their positions during good behav-
ior. The appointment of the Fire Com
missioners and of the Chief of the De-
partment is prerogative of the Mayor.
To this, the New Orleans Times Democrat
objects strenuously, holding that it will
make the Department subject to the evils
of political influence.

teen in any store, shop, factory or man
ufacturing establishment by the day, or
any period of time greater than one

child is the only means of support of "an
aged or infrm relative" The enforce
ment of the law has not, however, been
found so easy, learns the New York Post.

important matter, and as consequence
the employment of chil1ren under the
prohibited age goes on the same as ever.

According to the Washington cor

According to the Washington CORES
pondent of the St. Louis Globe Democrat
"the supposition that there is large
emigration from Japan to the United
States is without foundation. Instead of
10000 japanese being here, as is often
stated, the number is probably less than
1000. For the decade beginning with
1861, when solitary subject of the
Mikado ventured to come to the New
World, the immigrants numbered 21S.
For the two decades ending June 80,
1890, the figures indicate an immigration
2491. During the eleven months end
ing May 81 of this year, 901 japanese
landed on our shores. The increase from
year to year has been but slight, and if
no greater for the years that remain of
the century, there is little danger of the
presence of a horde of japanese, so
much feared by some labor agitators.
The immigrants in 1886 numbered 49,; ;
in 1887, 229b in 1888, a04; 1889, GOA,
and in 1890, l691."
