Big Tunnels on Steamers.

Few people have any idea of the
size OF the funnels.o the great ocean
steamers. Hyou ask the first half
dozen people you meet for their
estimate it is not likely that one of
them will name a figure one-half the
actual size. Most persons would say
the diameter of tunnels or the largest
steamer is four to six feet and would
want to wager that it was not more
than eight feet. How far from the
actual size such guesses are may be
understood when it is stated that the
funnel of the Etruria measures little
over eighteen feet in diameter. At
even a short distance away this can
hardly be believed. Itgives an idea of
theenormous size of the big steamers,

Saved by a Rat

A gentleman, who modestly prevents
our publishing his name and whose
veracity is unquestioned, relates the
following: II had been picking cotton
in my field very hard all the morning,
and when dinner time came / lay
down in the gin house, and must have
dozed off to sleep, when all at once I
felt a sharp prick on the end of my
finger. 1 jumped and saw large rat
looking at me intently, and he kept
running backward and forward but
coming back at the same place each
time. Ipicked up nut and threw it
so accurately that killed the rat.
About that time I discovered some
cotton on fire. which believe caused
the strange actions of the rat, and I
believe that I, as well as thegin-house,
would have been burned had it not
been for the timely bite Of the rat p

A Chinese Magistrates Decision.

A remarkable decision is reported
from Kluklang in China. A gambler
forged a large number of notes for
thousand each on his brothers bank
and put them into circulation. When
these notes were presented at the bank
the forgery was discovered and pay
ment was refused; whereupon the en-
ragged holders, storming the building,
dragged the manager before the magis-
trate. The latter held that, since the
writing and marks OF the false notes
were SO like those Of the regular bank
notes that ordinary people could not
distinguish between them, the bank
would have to honor them, and he
accordingly made out an order to this
effect. AS a result of this decision the
bank has been forced to suspend pay
ment. while the author of the mischief
escapes punishment.
