The Curious in Numbers.

A lover of the curious in numbers has
figured out some interesting facts concern
ing the city of Berlin. The city has 2lO
miles OF streets, so that person might
walk ten days in the German capital with
out going p or down the same street twice.
If the 1,4o0,OoO inhabitants were to turn
out Mt grand review, and march in
double file, they would form line $50
miles in length, a column long enough to
reach nearly entirely across France. If
the citizens should all determine to start
on journey on the same day and at the
same time all the cars in Germany would
accommod ate but two-thirds of their num-
Der. If formed in a single file, each with
his hand on the others shoulder, the COL
umn would be nearly 1900 miles long. If
separated until only within speaking dis
lance of each ether, the column would be a
human Telegraph line long enough to reach
from Berlin to Calcutta, India.-St Louis
Republic

The old legends of how the giants of
Cornwall slew great fat oxen by the score
and used their warm blood for drink while
they champed the rare flesh between their
great teeth have for centuries afforded ma
terlal for many nursery tale to the hor-
ror of the youthful listeners. If the drink
ing of the blood and the eating of raw beef
were the only requisite to be giant, then
Louisville could form an army of giants.
The very thought of such thing is enough
to sicken most people, but it is fact that
there are scores and scores of persons in
this city VINO satiate their thirst by drink
ing blood, and who appease their hunger
with raw, bloody beef. OF course they do
not do this all the time. but they probably
would if the opportunity were presented.
such persons are very reticent on the sub
Ject, not because they are ashamed of it.
but for the reason that it might disgust
their acqu aintances.-LouisviIle Courier

The Rreadfruit Tree.

Seventeen Dollars for "A Mu.taeb.

Albert Broers, Berlin butcher, noted
for his long, black, handsome mustache,
went on & trip to Landsberg, his native
place, where he was Joined by three fellow
tradesmen-the two brothers Gerbitz and
Lehmpfahl. The four went to dine at a
restaurant, after which they began to dis
cuss Herr Broers' beautiful mustache.
Growing excited over the pleasing theme,
the question was raised how much the
wearer would take for it, and it was at
last agreed to put up the mustache for sale
by auction. The bidding was brisk, and
the article was finally knocked down for
ninety-fou marks. A barber was called
in. and after the operation the butcher

ment, but with substantial equivalent

TAKING A sNooze,

The drows hum OF the murmurine bee.-
lowering over the lavender trees.
Steals through half shut lattices.
As, awake or asleep, scarce know which.
lazily loll near a window niche
Whose go samer curtains are softly st;rraa
By the gauzy wings Of hummine bird.
From airy heights the feathery down
Blown fro n the nettle's nodding crown.
Weary wi h wandering everywhere.
Sails Slow to earth through the sultrv air.
While indolent zephyrs, Oppressed with per.
fume"
stolen fro many balmy bloom,
Are falling asleep within the room.
Now floating afar, now towering near.
Dull to the eye and dumb to the ear.
Grow the shapes that see, the sounds that
hear
Every mu -mur around dies into nv dream
Save only the song of a sylvan stream.
Whose bu den, set to a somnolent tune
Has lulled the whispering leaves of June
All things are hazy and dreamy and dim:
The flies IN lazier circles swim;
On slumberous wings, on muffled feet,
Imaginary sounds retreat;
And the &c Ids-Elysian isles that lie
In the bright blue sea of summer sky
Fade out before my closing eye.

STAR DUST

There is a theory that finds
Endorsement in some medical
quarters, that general epide-
mics are caused by the earth,
while circling through the re-
aims of space coming in con-
tact with Star Dust. The at
mosphere is thus filed with mi
mute germs that effect every

probably more fanciful than
real. But it shows that most
OF these epidemics reach the

Captain schley Reports Pacific Feeling
at Valparaiso.

Captain schIey Reports racine Eeel1ng
at Valparaiso.
WASHINGTON, Nov. "a cablegram
from Captain Schley to Secretary Tracy,
dated Valparaiso, Chile, yesterday,
states that there is no Indication Of any
feeling of hostility towards the Balti-
more's company at Valparaiso.
Regarding the report Of unusual ac-
tivity and Sunday work in the navy
yards, it is said at the navy de-
partment that it has no warlike
Specification. No order has been
sent from the department for Sunday
work, and it is not known officially that
there has been any. 1t is a common
practice to work the force of men over
time at the navy yards, when there is
any particular need of haste, and if
work has been pushed on Sunday, it
has been in pursuance to the general
order to hasten the work of repair on
ships, in order to have them in readi-
ness for their winter cruises.
VALLEJO, CAL, Nov. 9.-Admiral r.
win, in an interview today, said that
there is no authority for the statement
that the forces at the Mare Island navy
yard would be increased to one thousand
men to rush work on the ships. Re-
pairs on the Mohican are being rushed
time. 1t will take short time only to
fit her for sea. The force Of men at the
yard numbers about 650.
