There has been some dispute as to the
descent Of the dog-whether it is an i'm
proved progeny of the wolf or a distinct
variety. That it is not a different species
is proved by the fact that the dog and
the wolf will mate and produce offspring
Nevertheless it is probable that the dog
is merely descended from the same orig,

making a railway party believe that they
had run over a child. Sudden cries, fol-

beneath the wheels. The train was
topped, and the employees n~ervously

be seen. No clew to the situation could
be found until a large green parrot,
swinging in his cage, uttered a mocking

Chinese Oldilies.

ga residence in China" remarked a
returned missionary to the Man About
Town, "reveals the fact that the Chinese
have some very odd customs an prac-
tees not generally known to the world.
For instance, previous acquaintance
between the male and female prevents
them from marriage, aid love making
between young folks is only tolerated
three days before marriage. When a
Chinaman desires visitor to dine with
him he does not ask him to do so, but
when he does not wish him to stay he
puts the question: "Won't you stay aud
dine with me, please!' when the visitor
knows that he is not wanted. When n
Chinaman expects present and it does
not come he makes known his disap-
pointmcnt by sending one OF lesser valu?
and then awaits results. In China one
can always borrow money on the strength
of having a son, but nobody would ad
vance him a cent if he hal dozen dau-h-
tiers. A number Of their customs and
practices are quite the adverse Of ours.
There old men play ball and fly kites,
while children fold their arms and look
on. Old women, instead of young, are
the idols of society. Men wear long
petticoats and carry fans, while the
women wear short jackets and carry
canes. Boats are drawn by horses, car
riages move by sails. A rich mans
servant gets no salary, get many are the
applicants; while big salaries are paid to
the servants of the common people, but
few make application, The reason OF
this is that the perquisites of the former
often more than triple the salaries Of the
latter,-&. Louis Republic.

An extraordinary case of somnambu-
ism is reported from one of the rura
districts of France. According to the
account which has reached Paris the
patient is a young man whose legs have
been completely paralyzed for some time.
In his usual state he is unable to move
without the help OF crutches, but when
the fit is on him he can walk long dis.
tances without the slightest assistance
A few night ago he got up and started
for a neighhoring village, followed by
some of his relatives, who never lose
sight of him when he is IN this coudi-
ton. He arrived without misadventure
at the house Of friend, knocked at the
door and asked for refreshments. After
having rested for few moments he re-
turned home, and as it was still very
early in the morning he sat down on a
bench aud waited until the people began
to come out of their houses. He then
went to bed and awokc few hour.
aftGrward without feeling the least IA
tigde, though he had walked more than
ten miles, nor had he the slightest re,
membrance of the expedition which he
had undertaken. The case is said to be
exciting the utmost interest throughout
the department. and to be the subIees
of universal discussion. -L9adoa Iele-

AIphonso Kill. the Boy King.

The crowns of three of the hereditary
kingdoms of Europe are now worn BY
children. Tee oldest in length OF reign
and youngest in years Is Alphonso XIII.
of Spain. lie has been a king from the
day OF his birth, May II, 1886, his ia
thcr, Alphonso AlI., having died few
months before.
As the youngest child of Alphon9o
Xii. was boy, under the Ia vs. Of Spain
whicd declare that the royal title shall
descend in the male line Whenever that
is possible he became the king at once,
taking rank above his sisters, the first
born Of which then ceased to be Queen
of SPUN and became only Princess of
the Asturia' The short life of this tt
tied boy has been less happy than that
OF many of his little subjects, for his
health has not been good and he has
passed through some severe illnesses,
which have left hun frai rather than
robust child. He has recovered from
his illnesses without serious results, and
is now a k2o wing and attractive little
boy, who loves play and delights in mis-
chief, even though he does live in
palace and is surrounded with all the
ceremony of a court.
As many amusing stories are told of
his bright sayings and comical acts as are
told of wonderful babies of less promi-
nent families.
Oae auecdote relates to his first atten-
dance at chapel Great pains had been
taken to make him understand that he
must sit very still during the service,
and especially must not say word He
listened eagerly and in silence to the Or
gan, but when the priest commenced to
speak the small monarch called out,
stop! you must not talk in chapel"
His pictures are common in Europe,
and all OF them are pleasing. In one he
Is in the chair of state. Ga a footstool,
before him, are his two sisters, and at his
right hand sits his mother. Standing
before him, in a rich uniform, is one of
the high officers of Spain, who is reading
a long address to his sovereign as SOL
EMMY rs if he were in the presence of
monarch of ripe years. Not only do the
baby eyes stare in surprise at this inter
ruption of fun aud frolic, but the mouth
also is wide open, while one tiny hand
clutches with all its puny strength the
fingers of his faithful Andalusian nurse,
who stands in waiting behind the mon
arch's chs:r of state.
He is greatly liked by his people, AMI
his daily appearace in Madrid with his
sisters, III his little carriage drawn by
four fine mu'es, always calls out uliver-
sal expressions of affection. 1t is espe-
cially fortunate that his mother is a
woman of good sense, high character
and an exceedingly kind heart She
was an Archduchess of Austria and is
now Queen Maria Christina, reigning as
regent until her son reaches the age of
sixteen years. She has greatly endeared
herself to the people of her adopted
country by her wisdom and her beuevo-
lence, Lately, the eloquent leader Of the
Spanish republicans, Senior CASTELAR,, ex-
planned the quiet condition Of his party

An Ocean Of Salt

Salton, Colorado, is one of the lowest
points in the United States, being two
hundred and sixty three feet below sea
level. 1t is dreary spot, situated near
the end of a great valley, and ages ago
was doubtless a part of the ocean. But
from time immemorial Salton has been
a desert, and for all time to come it
will remain so. Except for few scart
sagebrush, nothing grows on it or can
be made to grow.
Here lie the huge salt beds which are
now being worked by San Francisco
company, so what looks apparently a
useless waste is really valuable land.
The beds cover an enormous area, and
the salt is scraped from off the surface
and is not, as some people imagine,
mined in the same way as gold and
silver. The beds are about six to eight
feet in length, and often larger. for they
are srtiicially made, and in them ooz,s
the salt.
The only tools which are employed
to gather the salt are shovel and hoe.
Then the crude salt is loaded upon flat
cars and run down by locomotive into
the mills, where it Is pounded up into
salt for the table, 70 the dairy and itr
such other purposes rs needed.
The amount Of salt that can be pros
duced is incalcuIable. Indeed, there IS
enough TO supply the civilized worldior
nnnuinbered ages, and if there we're a
failure Of SAT- anywhere the Colorado
desert would be able to supply the de-
mand,
in broad day. when the beds are seen
from the railroad cars, they loo, like an
immense inland ocean, aud in early
morning, when the sun is rising, the
scene is one of unsurpassed splendor,
for as the rays strike the salt crystals
they flash forth various colored lights.
