Captain Nathaniel. Richards. who has
been whaler all his life, until old age
forced him to give up the sea, was the
guest Of the officers OF the United States
frigste Constellation on Sunday evening
at dinner. Captain Richards is in his
niuety-fourth year. and what makes his
visit remarkable is that it was the Con-
stellation which rescued him from the
Chilians seventy years ago. In 1921 Cap
tain Richards sailed from Stonington on
q sealing voyage. He got around to the
coast of Chilli. was captured with others
while ashore, was taken to the interior
and put to work in the mines,
For six or seven months be toiled for
his masters, brutally treated and half
starved. At last an opportunity offered
for escape He made foi the coast, hotly
pursued. but he reached there. and steal
ing boat he made long and perilous
voyage until the Constellation came into
view He was taken on board and ate
his first hearty meal since leaving his
own vessel He remained ON board uLtil
the frigate returned home.
/ This incident came to the knowledge
of the officers of the vessel now in tht
harbor. and they sent courteously
written invitation to the a. seaman re
questing the pleasure of his company al
dinner. Captain Richards accepted
and the Consultations steam launct
( took him from the shore to the frigate
where he was received with due honors
He was seated at the post Of honor. ant
the officers made much of him. AS tn
old gentleman's mind is clear and hi
memory retentive. he did his share il
making the event an interesting one TO
his entertainers This is the first tim
he has seen the vessel since it brough
him home in ls2i.-New London Cor

How the 0reel,s colnbsd rheir Hair.


In Greece. during the heroic asrs.
men wore theiE hair and boards long.
which SO disguised the cleanly and clean
faced Egyptians that. if we are to credit
Herodotus, no one of either sex Of the
latter nationality would on any account
kiss the lips of Greek, make use Of his
knife. his spit and cauldrOn, or taste the
meat of an animal which had been
slaughtered by his hand. 1t must not
be inferred from this that the Greeks, in
tine early days Of their being, were alto
gether barbarigrs; but they were GER
tainly not so civilized-not 50 well az
quainted with the arts Of peace ami war
las the Egyptians until long after they
had made their mark in history.
The love of the beautiful was there, no
doubt; but it had not yet manifested IL
self and raised the social character of the
people. 1t required the softening and
humanizing influence and intercourse
with more liberal races. such as the
Egyptians and PhCenicians. to one or the
other of whom they were intlebIed foI
much that they possessed. Il would
seem that, in the matter Of personal
adornment. they derived the beginning
from the Egyptians. and that they i'm
proved upon these beginnings rs theil
own sense OF the fitness of things devel
oped into passion for the beautiful
Their arrangement Of the hair they ant
their women carried eventually to tbs
highest point Of artistic excellence. :

The ECONOMY Of the Egyptiana.

A curious illustration Of the domestic
economy Of the Egyptians has been met
with in the unwinding Of the bandages
of the mummies Although whole webs
of fine cloth have been most frequently
used. in other cases the bandages are
frag1nentary. and have seams, darns
and patches. Old napkins ara used. old
skirts. pieces Of something that may
have been a shirt: and once a piece Of
cloth was found with an arlnhole in 1t.
with seam and gusset and band finely
stitched by fingers themselves long since
crumbled and their dust blown to the
four winds. -Harpsr's Bazaar.

ELECTRIC Light FI,hInr.

The sloop Lou has gone on a novel
fishing expedition to last from one TO
three months. An electric plaEt is on
board, and the fishing is to be done by
the aid Of incandescent lights and a net.
Experiments in the bay proved that
everything alive under the water is at
tracted by the glare Of the light. and
thousands Of fish Of every description
can be taken in short time and with
little trouble.
Four men we're on board and the boat
steered for the hanks near San Clement
island. The practical result of the first
voyage will be watched with much in.
terest in this city. and if it is as success
full in deep water as the experiments in
the bay have been the projectors Of the
enterprise are confident they will have
solved the problem of supplying al
southern California with cheap fish.

Ready for a Lynching.

A lynching was nearly precipitated by
the error of Kansas operator some time
ago. 1t was only averted by the discovery
that there was no one to lynch A young
farmer was called away FROM home for a
few days His wife went to visit her
brothers in town near by during his alb
sence. The third day her husband tele-
graphed her, big ball, meet me at Wichita
tonight" There was to be a dance and he
wanted his wife tn attend This was a
spiendld opportunity Tor the imp or ms
chief who causes telegraphic "bulls." He
tempered with the message so that when
the farmers wife read it it said, big Bill
got me at Wichita to night"
Her instant and very natural conclusion
was that her husband had either been
captured or shot, or both, by desperate
named Big Bill" Her brothers agreed
with her, and the whole family and a num-
Der of neighbors, all heavily armed, took
the first train for Wichita to rescue the
husband and hang big Bill" The hus-
band was waiting calmly at the station for
his wife. The vigilance committee de-
manded big Bill" and were not at all
satisfied with the husband for standing
there free and uninjured The brothers
criticised him severely because he wasn't
kidnapped, and announced that in their
opinion he had been guilty of rank decep-
ton. A fight was prev ented by his wife's
intervention and an explanation.

Perpetual Motion ImpossibIe,

1t may be safely said that there are today
as many minds afflicted with this mild
form of insanity as there have been at any
time in the past. Every city, town and
hamlet possesses its would-be inventor
who is striving TO achieve the end that is
to startle the world. Many who will not
openly admit that they believe perpetual
motion is possible are secretly thinking
upon the matter and entertaining the hope
that they may yet do what so many have
failed in doing No other fallacy has been
SO popular or has 50 long withstood the
light of reason as has perpetual notion
Alchemy and the transmutation of metals,
which for a season or so occupied the
minds of men, passed away to return no
more.
The philosophers stone and the elixir
vitae were believed in and earnestly sought
after by the really scientific men of a few
generations, but the search was finally
given up. The phantom of perpetual mo-
ton, however, will not down, but beckons
men on and on leading them all to the
same inevitable result-total failure. Men
are as far from the discovery of the secret
today as they were seven centuries ago,
and they Will get no nearer to it until a
weight placed upon the ground can lift
itself up, or, as the idea is sometimes more
strikingly presented, until one can lift
himself off the floor by pulling his boot
straps.-Chicago Herald.
