The remarkable growth in population
Of the region occupied bv the states OF
Montana, Oregon and Washington Is
OnIv surprising to those who are un-

resources of this section. Mining. lum-

section OF North America.
The states of Montana and Washing

of raj road building, but the principal

states, and in fact the only one travers-
ing them from east to west and reach

Short on Family Names.

One of the oddities of fashionable
society in Philadelphia, says the Times
of that city, which is puzzling to
strangers, is the number of young ladies
met with and classed as bellies who bear
the same family name. Until recently
it has not been considered good form to
use, except in intimate intercourse,
young ladies' first names, but now it is
not only necessary, but, there being
daughters of ditierent branches OF the
same family bearing the same Christian
name, it has been found convenient to
number them as in the case of young
men, and such titles as Miss Arabella
Rittenhouse II. and Miss Regina Pedi-
gree III. are found on cards and invita-
tions. This, of course, can not be car
ried out in introductions, and as there
are at least twenty families with young
ladies bearing the same name, though
only distantly related, the effect at a
large party is very confusing. For in
stance, there are twenty-eight Miss
Biddles.

Everybody Like All Sin.

One of the problems before the Legis
lative Council of the little but inn
portant colony Of Hong Kong. which
has recently assembled, is to checl1nate
the willingness of the Heather Chinee
in two financial connections, bankrupt
cy and gambling. The Chinese have
hitherto shown themselves great adopts
at getting through the meshes OF ordi-
nary bankruptcy laws. AS for the at
tempt to put down the gambling mania
in the colony, the opinion Of many is
that it would be just as well to intro
duce an ordinance for the suppression Of
the Pacific Ocean. The Chinese are such
old adopts at bribing off supervisors
of gambling houses that one has to be
sanguine, indeed, to believe that the
provisions of an ordinance with this OBJ
ject, however carefully devised, can be
effectually carried out. At the present
time the amount Of gambling which
goes on is little short Of scandal.

READS UPSIDE DOWN
Curious Case Of Perverted Vision in
Pennsylvania Girl.

Curious Case of Perverted Vision in 3
Pennsylvania Girl.
A very peculiar case Of perverted
vision has been presented to an oculist
of York, Pa, says the New York Journal.
A little girl of ten years, the daughter
of one of this city s most respected citi-
zens, was discovered by her school
teacher to be unable to read her read
ing exercise unless the book was held
upside down. The teacher Immediate
ly communicated the fact to the par
ents, and they became very much
worried.
The oculist was called in and an ex-
animation made of the child's eyes.
They were found to be entirely normal.
The only conclusion arrived at was
that the strange freak of vision was
the result of habit of trying to read
with the book pages in an unnatural
position, a habit contracted some years
ago when the child was first sent to
school.
At this time the child in writing
numbers upon slate always made
them upside down, and as it was never
observed or corrected she gradually
drifted into the habit Of reading the
same way.
The only means Of cure possible is to
teach the child every thing over
again as though she never knew any
thing before This will be carefully
done and q cure Of this really phenom-
email case IS anxiously looked for II the
near future. ~.

A WORM~l.iT SEA.
Venice Lying In a Bath Of Glory When
Night Tails ON the Ocean.

Venice Lying In a Bath Of Glory When
Night Tails on the Ocean.
During the whole Of the past year, as
whole of the sea of Venice has been as one
vast expanse Of pllosphorescent waves
whenever dashed to even the slightest
extent by the winds. Formerly, says
the New York Journal, this luminous
appearance had been noticed only at
intervals Of about ten or fifteen years,
then only from the beginning Of sum
mer until about the end of harvest, and
in places Astounding with sea grass.
Now every thing seems changed, the
whole surface of the sea Or gulf appear
ing as sea of pale white fire as soon as
darkness sets in on a windy night. In
calm hooks the mere drawing of a stick
or cane back and forth through the
water is sufficient to give the effect Of
an electric flash, the light dying out and
again returning with the ebullitions Of
the water. A flask filled with the
water elaits no light until shaken vio-
lently; the introduction of a lead pencil
or small stick, however. will cause the
fluid to glow with greater intensity
than any amount of shaking on the
part of the experimental.
Strained through a fine cloth the
water loses all of it's peculiar proper
ties, they having been impaired to the
cloth, which now hickors and CLOVIS all
over the entire surface like the spot
where adamp match has been scratched
in the dark. After the aforementioned
peculiarly was noticed scientists made
examinations of cloths used in such
operations and were rewarded for their
pains by the discovery Of the light-giv-
ing nudge, a minute worm Or maggot,
scarcely the ne-seven-llundredth Of an
inch in length, each bow~shaped and
very lively.
Each of these little creatures is pro-
vided with twenty-five mammil@ in
stead Of feet, eleven on each side, and
has eleven luminous rings around his
tiny body. Persons living on the shores
of the gulf say that when the waters
sparkle more than usual it is sure
sign of a storm.

WEDDING PRESENTS.
Select Sensible Ones "A New York Brides
Elegant Display.

Wedding gifts in these latter days
are mostly sensible, solid, original and
artistic, and, excepting the usual fami-
" gifts of silverware in large and
small cases and sets, there is an entire
absence of the butter dish and spoon
holder mania. Something out Of the
ordinary says the New York Post, is
now sought after, and as a result the
bride has not eight or ten duplicates OF
certain gift. It is still SO much the
fashion to light the parlors and dining
and reception rooms with beautifully
shaded lamps that these in all sizes and
designs still figure very prominently
among wedding-presents. very large
and expensive Venetian lamp in bronze
and gold, set with semi precious gems,
shone among the choice gifts to a re-
cent bride of great wealth, living in
New York City. Another lamp sent
from Rome was of gold and enamel, the
cream enamel center portions upon the
four sides of the square receiver being
superbly hand-painted with four dis
tinct types of womanly beauty
italian, English, Spanish and American
A third lamp, a superb Oriental model
was Of black onyx, gold and pearl, with
fnishings Of fine Indian work in gold
and rocco. Lamps showing odd com
bina tions of Mexican onyx and Doulton
ware were presented. Among other
gifts were a pair OF beautiful white
eider-duck rugs; Wagner's operas
entire, magnifaently bound: some old
Venetian lace houncing; piece of
richest silk velvet direct from Lyons
looms; a Mexican onyx cabinet COM
pletely filed with gifts, the cabinet
from the professors and teachers of a
certain college, the gifts from the
brides college-class graduates: silks
direct from China, furs from Russia:
magnificently framed oil paintings and
engravings; forty-eight pairs of Suede
gloves in solid silver boxes, four large
unset diamonds in solid gold jewel box;
a box Of small birds Of rarest plumage
for trimming a ball toilet from the Isle
of Trinidad, and twelve yards of cream
velvet and twelve Of AIermet-rose
velvet, exquisitely hand-painted.
