THAT story from Algiers about the
locusts eating q scientist, boots and
all, leaving nothing but his bones and
a necktie, is causing great deal of
curious comment. Regarding their
discriminating rejection of the tie it is
pr liable that, the scientist being a.
young man and a Frenchman, the tie
was so loud that it scared the vora.
cious insects away.

RUSSIA has given an order for 8 ,OOO,-
900 new rifles to be made in France,
which is an indication Of present
peace and ultimate war. It will take
some time to make that many rifles

and 1t would hardly be worth while
to leave such an order if the general
war was to be inaugurated before the
order had been fulfilled.

How . Benevolent Man Furnished Wind
 for a Poor Fiutist.

How . Benevolent Man Furnished Wind
 for a Poor Fiutist.
 In "A Book of Vagrant Men and Va grant Thoughts .'' Alfred T. Story gives the following graphic description of a street incident: T was once" he says, ''an eyewitness of an amusing, and at the same time pathetic incident in an East End thoroughfare, in which poor hutist was the chief actor. It happened one bleak night in December. The streets were almost deserted. and a bit ter wind was driving down the streets, carrying everything before it. Few people were about. Nevertheless, a wretched nute-player. despite the wind, was trying to blow few coppers from the pockets of the chance wayfarers.
 ''He seemed to be in the last stage of consumption His long, black coat was pinned across his throat in a way that suggested his shirtless condition, while on his face was written a whole jeremi- ad of woe.
 Although he blew into his pipe with all the might he could command. yet he produced no sound. The gale was too strong for him. The fierce gusts seemed VI DN DAoNh tiAchBAA anu tIiOugii the poor fellow, and with such searching keenness that the wonder was that the soul of the man was not blown out of his lean body.
 Presently a big, lusty, well-fayored man came along. He observed curious ly for a minute or two the poor fiutist's efforts to raise the wind; then quietly taking the instrument out of his hands, he applied it to his own lips, at the same time telling the poor fellow to go before and hold the hat.
 He did so, whereupon the worthy citizen commenced to blow out such a liquid flood of melody that every passer- by stood and listened, and many of the listeners put their hands into their pockets, and east their maravedi into the reversed headcover.
 Thus the two men went the length of the street. Then the rubicund Or pheus returned the flute to it's owner, wished him goodnight and 8 better sup per and turned to go.
 But the poor fiuter, grateful for his unexpected windfall. gently detained his benefactor. and thinking he was in the profession, proposed to divide with him the results of their joint efforts: but the stranger would not hear of il it, and hastcned quickly away. the oth- CT meanwhile delaying his much-needed supper to look after him with dimming eyes.

NATURES WONDERS.

The Strange Intelligence of BrainIsss
 Creatures
 It Is not often that We find animals giving mutual aid. except in the line of their domestic duties. To meet with instances of helpfulness in creatures so low in the scale as are the ''sea-urch- ins'' on our coast is really remarkable. Prof. Elder. of Colby university, com municates to London Nature what he observed amoug the echini of Casco bay.
 Among the specimens brought back from one excursion were four or the common echini. The last one taken had been left exposed to the sun some 1 time before IJ was uJ-cea ana properly cared for. - | These four animals were placed alone in a small aquarium. and. as we wished ! to study their action, each was turned ! mouth up. Soon the action began. with | which every naturalist is familiar, and three of the caPtives slowly rose on edge, and then deliberately lowered themselves into the normal position. | The fourth, the injured one, made | much less rapid progress; all it could achieve was slight tipping on it's disk. | The two nearest echini. from six to | eight inches distant, now mo, d up and stationed themselves on opposite sides of their disabled eomrade. Fastening their tentacles for pull, | they steadily raised the helpless urehin | in the direction in which it had started. | As soon as it was possible, one of the I l.al the disk on the aboral Lbacl<l side, and | when the half-turn was accomplished, ] the other took station on the oral side, l gradually moving back as the object of so much solicitude was gently lowered to the position nature had made most | convenient.

MelIiexaI AIummerr.

The investiture of clergyman with the rank of bishop in England is attend ed by some curious survivals of medi- eval mumery. When the bishop of Pe- terborough was ordained recently he rapped his pastoral staff on the door of the church and waved his hand for the purpose of exercising all evil spirits from the interior. Then when he en- tered the sacred edifce he was preceded by chaplain bearing a crown and marched up the broad aisle arrayed in an antique cape of white satin elabor- ately and ornately trimmed. On his head he wore miter of white satin covered with red trimmings of silk braid
