PLAN OF WORLDS FAIR.
The Centennial Exposition TO
Be Improved Upon.

Plans for the Worlds Falr at
Chicago show u tract of ground OF
about two hundred acres on the
Lake front, with the principal
buildings grouped together at one
end. The railroad tracks enter
the grounds. large depot being
used both as station and for ad-
minIstration purposes. The build
ings are considerably larger than
those used for similar purposes at
the Centennial Exhibition, but at
the Centennial each of these strue-
lures required annexes of large
size, and there appears to be no
room at Chicago for such extern
sions, nor for the numerous special
buildings which were found neces-
sary in 1876. The main building
at Chicago is to be 80 by 1000
feet; Machinery Hall, 400 by ?, 300
with an added space of $50 by :, 800
for iOcomotion. Electricity is
given building by itself $50 by
200, and "a structure of the same
size devoted to mines Agricultural
Hall is 200 by 500 feet. The Chi
cago plans do not show the Art
Gallery. Comparison of the floor
spaces of the other principal build
ings with those of the Centennial
show the following: Main building
st Chicago, 100000 square feet;
at the Centennial, including annex,
95S,246; Machinery Hall and an

last few years which may be well

1t may not be generally known
that Queen Liliuokalani is the
adopted daughter of the High
Chiefs Paki and Konia, and was
brought up underthe same roof as
the late Mrs, c. R Bishop. She
may therefore be termed cue of the
Kamehameha family, indeed the
last of that famous family, now ex-
tinet, as well as being s scion of
the reigning Kslakaua family.

good qualities Of her royal cousin,
the Empress Victoria. of England,

Queer Facts About Beavers.

James Sherman, of Clifton, who is
trapping beaver at Knappa, was telling
recently some queer things about beaver
and beaver trapping. The animal, he
says, has the most acute sense of smell of
any animal that exists. In setting the
traps you must wait till low water, in
order to have the tide when it comes in
obliterate all traces of your presence.
When beaver is caught in trap the
other beavers at once enable him to make
good his escape by seizing him by the
tail and hauling him away until they re-
lease him, often leaving limb in the
trap as an evidence of the struggle that
ensued. He caught beaver last winter
on Puget Island, and says that it had only
two toes on hind foot, the other three
legs being amputated as close to the body
as if the limbs had never existed.
Mr.. Sherman says there is one faculty
the beaver possesses that would be pro-
fitable and interesting study for scien-
tiic men, and that is the power OF max
ing objects adhere to the bottom of a
stream without any apparent means of
securing them. The beaver lives mostly
on wood, which it cuts and deposits on
the bottom, where it remains, contrary to
the natural laws, which would in ordin-
ary cases cause the wood to rise to the
surface. How this is accomplished it is
difficult to decide, but Mr.. Sherman as
sures us that he tried it time and
again. Beaver trapping pays we'll where
any considerable number can be caught,
the average price of the furs being from
SO. so to S. per pound. Cathlamet Ga

A Doctors "BOre Bell"

A physician who was confidential told
visitor that all physicians with any
practice had bore bell.
"And what may bore bell bel"
asked his visitor.
ga 'bore bell, ," said the Doctor, sis
an invisible bell arranged somewhere in
the room, though generally in the floor
near the chair where physician is usually
seated at the time he receives his patients
When feel that have given the last
conner enough of my time l quietly put
my foot ON the secret spot in the floor,
and before any one can say Jack Robin
som my man has appeared and announced
that have telegram, or that some one
wishes to see me immediately. The pa
tient naturally bows herself out (you see
it is generally woman), and by means
of my little subterfuge | am free. OF
course do not mean to say that l am
obliged to use the bell every tims I re-
ceive woman patientl But tell YOU l
have found it lucky escape sometimes.
1t is all very well to listen to an account
of the ailments and give the required
amount of sympathy to the patient before
you, but when she drags in all her relatives
there has to be stopping place-there-
fore the bore bell. '"-Neio York Sun.

If FLOWERS COULD SING.

II flowers could sing, the poets lays
Would not be needed for their praise;
They, of which mon have sung so long,
Would sing their own enchanting song.
What fragrant accsnts oft would float
From out the roses velvet throat,
What soulful solace would they bring
II flowers could sing.
II flowers could sing how would they bles
The love that lips dare not confess,
How would they voice the secret throe
OF passionate and utter woe.
How would they thrill the maiden fair
Who wore them in her breast and hair.
What tender tidings would they bring
If flowers could sing.
If flowers could sing the birds would die;
What use were it for them to try
By any means to e'er disclose
The charms that render sweet the rose,
They lovely colors have. tits true;
But, have they lovely fragrance, toos
The birds W ould die from envy's sting
If flowers could sing.
Indeed, the world would be too sweet
II carols sang the marguerite;
In that fond hour, when twilight's ear
Is waiting woodland hymns to hear,
The violet her scent ere long
Would squander in the breath of song,
And song would Be too sweet thing
If flowers could sing.

Gutta. Percha is Disappearing

1t appears that there exists serious
risk of the determination of the plant or
tree from which gutta-percha is obtained.
This gum Is used in many industries,
largely in the manufacture of submarine
cables, as it is capable of sustaining its
insulating qualities when submerged
under water at great depths; in fact, the
insulation of Gutta-percha actually i'm
proves with age when kept continually
under water. The disappearance of the
curious tree from which gutta- percha is
obtained would, therefore, be calamity
of worldwide Importance, yet it would
appear from report recently made to the
French Academy of Sciences that we are
actually threatened with such calamity.
Mr.. Serullas, French scientist, spent
three years in Malay and studied the
isonandra in all periods of its existence,
acquiring complete knowledge of its
natural history and physiology, but he
reports that there is absolutely no method
in the manner employed by the natives in
robbing the tree of its sap, and that no
effort is made to cultivate and propagate
so valuable member of the plant world.
The natives adopt the wholly barbar-
GUS custom of cutting tree at the roots
in order to extract the gum; thus each
tree only gives one yield, and is then
dead forever. No wonder gutta- percha
is rapidly getting to be worth its weight
in Electrical Reoiew.

Why scetchmen Love the Thistle.

This is the way the story goes of how
the thistle brought good luck to Scot
land: Many years ago an army of Danes
landed on the Scottish shore, and, find
ing that their approach had been un-
heralded, determined to attack the
Scotch army by night. Approaching
the sleeping camp with tile greatest
caution success seemed almost certain,
when suddenly there arose from one of
the Danes an awful scream, which
aroused the men they were about to at
tack. The screaming invader couldn't
be blamed when it was known he was
barefooted and had stepped on thistle,
but the sturdy Scotchmen soon armed
themselves, fought well, and vanquished
their enemies. To show their gratitude
for the plant that had been their saliva
ton, it was determined that the thistle
should be the emblem of Scotland, and
the motto "Nemo me impune lacessit"
(No man provokes me with impunity),
is one of the most applicable extant.
However, the bride assumes it for good
luck and not because she wishes to be
aggressive. Detroit Free Press.

IN WINTER TIME.

In winter time where sleep the innumerous
lives,
That will the spring and summer tine
make gay,
As pupae or in embryo, till arrives
The time to break their bonds and soar
away?
Now with blind motions only each one
strives.
The bees. we know, bide happy in their
hives,
But where are all the small birds and their
wives
That brave the snow and frost, and near
us stay,
In winter tiyne?
Where are the brooks inhabitants?-each
dives
Into what secret chambers? Whittier drives
The cold the field and woodland tribes from
day?-
In air and water again will millions play;
The spirit, that animates them all, survives
In winter time.

"Going Down TO Mary's"

He was queer old man who boarded
the train at small station in western
New York. Two young men who were
probably his sons, brought him to the
steps of the car and helped him on, and
as he entered we saw that he leaned
heavily on cane and was very feeble.
ssThe children kept at me till had to
promise to CO." he said as he sat down.
sHain't bin down to Mary's in five years,
and I've got so old dasn't wait any lon
ger. It's purity tough on an old man
like me, but want to see Mary and the
grandchildren"
81 take it you are going to spend New
Years with your daughterP" remarked
the man on the seat ahead.
''Thats it. Mary's my oldest gal.
Got five of 'em, and all married off.
She lives down At, and she would
have me come and make visit. Mary
was allus good gal, and she merried
good man. You'll tell me when git
there, won't you9"
"Oh, yes."
s'Cause they'll all be there at the depot
to meet me. My son Steve writ that
was coming"
He had about forty miles to go, and
when we passed the first three or four
stations he was anxious for fear that he
would be carried by the right one. Af-
ter that he leaned over ON the window
and fell asleep. Just before the train
arrived at the man who had spok-
en- to him turned about and said:
"Come, grandpa, you get off here"
The old man did not move, and the
stranger arose and shook his arm and
said
"Wake up grandpa! This is your
station, and Mary and the children are
waiting. Come, now"
But he spoke to the dead. The old
man had died while he slept-passed
away so peacefully that not line of his
face had changed. And we were stun
ned and grieving when Mary and her
husband and three happy children came
hurrying into the car and shouted:
.'Here he is. Here's our grandpa,
come to spend New Years.

Walling OF a Submarine Line.

A novel engineering WORK has just
been completed at the Duddon estuary,
on the English coast. A valuable
hematite mine extended out under the
sea, and in order to work it a barrier
two-thirds of mile long and fifty feet
high for about half the length has been
constructed. The sea is thus shut out
from about twenty-six acres, on which,
it is estimated, the mining of iron ore
may be continued for twenty-five years

The American bison is nearly extinc

The American bison is nearly extinct,
and many farmer has regretted the
fact, because it has cut off the supply of
sbuffalo robes" with which he was wont
to protect himself from the winters cold
when obliged to be on the road. If re-
ports from Illinois are correct, states the
american DGiryman, a substitute, having
all the advantages of the original article,
has been found in the hides of the Gallo
way and Angus cattle. If, as seems
likely, the skins can be readily cured to
equal samples which have been exhibited,
they will be of considerable value for use
as robes; and the breeders will have an
additional argument in favor of these ex-
cellent animals, which have long been
noted for their beef-producing qualities.

American Beef For England.

The shipment of American beef to
English markets was begun on small
scale in 1875. The transportation was
from New York to Liverpool, and
laborious process of tanning by hand
blowers was required to keep the meat
fresh and cool. Later on blowers were
operated by steam and currents of frozen
air were sent from immense beds OF ice to
the refrigerators in which the meat was
stored. Large amounts of American beef
are shipped weekly to foreign markets
and the trade is about equally divided
between the frozen beef and the live
stock to be slaughtered on the other side.
