A MummiRed Rat.

1t was only a rat. But it was an un-
commonly wonderful rat. It was the
mummy Of q rat, and nc one knows how
many ages ago it made the feminine
TOlteo wish she were somewhere else.
It was q real Toltec rodent, for 1t came
from the eastern side of the Sierra Madre
Mountains in Mexico, and about 200
miles south Of Deming. A Mexican
ar~cheologist while travelling between
Corralitos and Casas Grandes came across
a Theoretically sealed a at an elevation
Of nearly 1000 feet. The ave was vast
in extent and proved to be a veritable
sepulchre filled with the mumm6ed
bodies of dead Toltecs. Among them
was the well-preserved body Of rodent.
The flesh had not sunken much upon the
bones and was in an excellent state OF
preservation. 1t has a dark brown APP
pearance. In size it does not differ from
a plain, ordinary, everyday rat. But II
is, just the same, and it is on exhibition
in the room of the M .ir ] Bureau.

A Miraculous City.

Until the end of 1885, writes q corre-

some 0 1000, CON prised Of q motley
crowd drawn from every nation under
the sun, as a walk through the stone
built streets of the town loon shows.
There is the original Boer, born and bred
in the country, rough of manner, careless
Of dress, with long, lank hair and dress,
master Of the situation for the present;
the occasional Britisher, who bears him
little good will, and who has come out,
it may be, as a wealthy Spectator or as
q rough Cornish prospector-perhaps
simply just to look round and see what
is to be seen; the Dutch vrow, broad and
solid of build and solid Of feature; the
Arab merchant or peddler, come up from
the coast, and ever ready to cheat you;
Malays and Hindoo coolies, who have
found their way from Natal; and the
ubiquitous Chinaman, who puts In an ap-

fashions in fnery of gorgeous hues;
while, Of course, bushman house boys
are seen everywhere, with occasionally
one or two wandering minstrels, who WI

LESSON SURROUNDINGS.

INTERVENING EvENTs.-The rebuke
OF the sins of Israel is continued, but
in the form of symbols amos Z : 10
to 9: 10y. In Amos. z: 10-l7
there is an account of the contention
with Amaziah, the priest at Bethel.
The symbols are five in number, the
lesson forms the fourth. The book
closes with a promise of restoration.
PLACE. = It is probable that the
visions of chapters 8 and 9 were given
at Tekos, after the return of the
prophet from Bethel; but this is not
certain. All the local illusions in the
lesson are to well-known places.
TME.-Amos seems to have exercised
the office of a prophet for but a short
time; hence the interval between this
lesson and the last was doubtless a
brief one. The approximate date is B.
y. 787.-or 752, if DAVIS is correct in
his theory of the chronology of this
period.
INcIDENTs.-The vision of q basket

canoe as a symbol of speedy judgment

Israelites, and the recompense of their
doings Tvs. 49,. A further, mainly

Altar Of Rosss.

Tradition hath It that altar of roses
was first used by Nourjehan, Moore's
Nourmahal, otherwise "Light of the
Harem." Walking one day in her
garden, through which ran a canal Of
rosewater, she spied upon its surface oily
particles that excited her curiosity. In
sheer idleness she collected them; found
them so deliciously fragrant that she at
once cried for more, with the result Of
setting up q new industry among her
husbands loyal subjects. Once the
precious essence was worth its weight in
diamonds; now it fetches but IS the
ounce.
Turkey supplies the most and purest
of it. That which comes from India is
usually adulterated with oil of lemon
grass. Bulgaria is the Turks greatest
rose garden. There, upon the long, cool
north hill slopes he plants the hundred
leaf rose and tends 1t assiduously. The
plant IS tickle and capricious as any
coquette. Upon one hill 1t will bloom
and broaden magni6cently, yet wholly
lack scent, while on another not half q
mile away it. will fairly intoxicate you
with Its perfume.
May is the time of harvest. Then
there are flowers by the million. They
must be picked before sunrise, as o o as
they open, else they lose more than half
their sweetness.
The leaves are put into clay stills with
twice their W weight of water. What

EDITOR BULLETIN:-
In looking through the treasury
statement for the year ended March
3 list, noticed that the South Kona
road board had drawn out $3.50 of
the road tax and that the two new
roads, starting from Kaiua and Hoo
kena respectively cost Sc, ,972. &C and
1,01S94. If l am rightly inform
ed, the new roads above mentioned
are not under the control of the road
boards, but are provided for by spe-
cial appropriations. Both of them
run in a southeasterly direction from
Kailua and Hookena to the mauka
government road. The Hookena
road leads into a pretty thickly set
tied section of country, but the Kai-
lua road has not fallen so fortunate
ly for the people of North Kona, and
its usefulness is not likely to be ap
preciated until question arises to
occupy that part of the country.
The konas have certainly several
miles of smooth permanent roadway
to show for the $l7, ,991 60 drawn for
that purpose. But what of the $3.50
drawn by the road board of South
Kona? If the road board has any
thing to show for it, perhaps the
members of that august body would
be kind enough to point it out.
About q mile of the Kealakekua pail
was cleared of lantana, q job that, if
it had been attended to at the right
time, could have been performed at
a cost of less thar ten dollars. Out
side of that, it would be very inter-
esting to know for what purpose the
$3.50 was drawn. The North Kona
board seem to have done nothing and
charged nothing for 1t. The South
Kona board ought 10 be enquired of
and compelled to show value for that
$3.50. A person riding through the
district would be bothered to find
evidences of bona lide expenditure
of ten dollars on road Improvement.
The rocks seem to be in possession as
they always were, the pals clean
over as they always did and horse and
rider have as good chances of break
ING their necks as ever they bad, the
road boards $3.50 to the contrary
Notwithstanding.

SEGREGATION EXTRAORDINARY.
EplroR BuLLErlN.-

EDIroR BuLLETIN:--
Has anyone attempted to define
segregation as carried out in this
kingdom? In some instances, it
would be well described as an in
genious double process of prevention
and propagation. Facts: the hus-
band of leper accompanies his wife
to The settlement on Molokai, lives
there with her until she dies, upon
which the husband packs off to the
island of Hawaii, where he marries a
girl in a respectable native family !;
another husband, who had lived with
his wife until her death in the leper
settlement, takes his departure and
is a passenger on an inter-island
steamer, where he runs about among
other passengers, his personal effects
are thrown into the surfboat with
other peoples baggage, and is al
lowed to land and 90 wherever he
pleases without let or hindranee.
All the while the country spends
money in the hundred thousands
on what ought to be, but is not, a
vigilant systematized rule of segrc-
CATION. Ever hear from any other
country an instance of q person,
after close contact with the disease
in leper hospital, being permitted
again to go at large! If person, of
his own option, takes his bed and
board with victim of the disease,
it is no good reason why he should be
allowed to inllict himself afterwards
on his friends outside of Kalawao and
Kalaupapa. Taking those infected
away from their friends with one
hand and with the other setting
adrift inmates of the hospital to in
ocuIate fresh victims what a unique
method of doing and undoing at one
and the same time!
