Books in English Prisons.

One of the amenities permitted by
the authorities of convict prisons,
and of which the convicts to their
credit avail themselves very largely,
is the large and extensive circulating
library connected with each estab-
lishment A convict prison library
contains as good a collection of books
as can be seen on the shelves of a
first class free library and reading
room. Some of the best works of
English, French and German authors
are passed weekly from cell to cell
in all English prisons. The reader,
no doubt, can imagine what boon
interesting and readable books must
be to prisoners who are quiet and
intelligent. Serials bound up in
half yearly volumes are included in
the prison catalogue. London Tit

a Field for Ambitions yourg Men.
Perhaps no kind of industry offers
o more inviting field TO the specu-
lative mind than the elephant trade.
It is not overdone. Catching, tanning
and selling elephants constitute a
business open TO any one who choos-
es to fallow It. Then elephant prices,
once so moderate, have grown pro
digiously. Fifty years ago tame
elephant could be bought in India
for about 5000, Now prices range
from 81, 900 to $4,000. Yet it is no
harder to tame an elephant now than
before, and there is no glut in the
market.
Elephants sell readily according to
desirabi]ity at the figures suggested
Besides. the occupation is one in
which sport can be combined with
profit. 1t is adventurous and excit
ing, full of interest from the time an
elephantine trail is discovered until
the capture of the monster is effect
ed But the sport does not end here.
Any amount of animation may be
experienced in tanning elephants and
teaching them the comities incident
al to menagerie life
We throw these hints out in the
hope that they may prove helpful to
energetic and enterprising young
men who are hesitating which road
to fortune they shall choose. Troy

The manufacture of Portland ce
ment was first introduced into Ger
many in 1852 Now there are sixty
large wor'as. having the same an
nual pro- iction as Englahd-20, 600, :
600 barrels. The raw materials are
of exceedingly unfavorable charac-
ter, but the manufacturers have
made serious study of the proper
ties and uses of Portland cement,
and now know exactly what rules to
follow to regulate their operations,
and the consumer can depend on the
product offered him. The association
of manufacturers has had much to
do with the immense development
of the industry in Germany. In
France the industry grew slowly, the
total production in 1880 hardly ex-
ceeding 100000 barrels year; now
it is 1,S0Q,0 900 barrels. New York

A friend of mine saw the Prince o1
Wales get out of a hanson and give
the driver coin which the man helt
in his palm and looked at for some
time, after the manner of cabbies
who wish to impress their dissatis
faction silently on their fare. Usual
ly, however, their dissatisfaction il
vocal.
''Was that is 'ighness, Joe9' asked
a brother cabby.
''It was, answered Joe, still look
ing at the coin.
"Wot d'he give ye2"
Joe solemnly spat on the silver and
slipped it in his pocket.
"E couldn't a. given Inc more if e
was king. Strike me blind if e
didn't give me is bloomin crown"
The prince had paid five times the
legal fare. Detroit Free Press.

During the Garibaldian campaign
of 1865, in which Signor Genala, the
present Italian minister, took part,
he had q comrade whose mother had
been a second parent t., himself.
This comrade was missed after the
battle of Montesuello. and nothing
could be heard of him. Gcnala went
to his friends mother and swore he
would bring her son, dead or alive
Then he went in search of him in
Austria. Hungaria, Bohemia and
Croatia, visiting all the hospitals,
prisons, lazzarettos and barracks, but
all in vain.
Genala then returned to Italy and
instituted inquiries and researches,
obtaining permission to uncover the
graves in many small cemeteries
near Montesuello, and finally found
and recognized the corpse of his
friend. He transported the remains
to Crema, where his mother had the
consolation of giving her dead son an
honored burial. Roma.

BIindfold.

Nine persons ont of ten would
probably give the derivation of blind
as coming directly from blind, and
fold from the practice of folding a
cloth round the eyes, as in the game
of blindman's buff. The word has,
however, nothing to do with fold,
but means felled, or struck blind,
and might be written blindfelled.
In the same way the word buttery is
easily confused with the common
term butter, with which, however,
it has no connection, save in the
minds of those who do not know it
to be contraction for bottlery, a
place where bottles are kept, and
over which the bother or butler,
presides. Chambers Journal.

A Cloudbu rst.

Cab Lee, squaw man of the
Amargosa valley, tells of sleeping
near the mouth of Furnace creek
canyon one night years ago with a
"bug hunter" as the desert tramp
ing scientists are called in camp. 1t
was so hot that the bug hunter could
not sleep. About midnight he heard
a roaring noise up the canyon, which,
as it kept increasing in volume,
caused him to look up that way TO
his surprise he saw, as he supposed,
the sky that appeared between the
canyon walls grow suddenly white.
At that moment Lee rolled over
and the bug hunter asked him what
allied the sky. Lee gave one glance
and then yelled: "Cloudburst
Climb" They scrambled up the
steep wall just in time to save their
lives. Lee thinks the foaming wall
of water that had whitened the sky
was not less than 100 feet high. San

When Rnmana Kissed.

Rowena, the beautiful daughter of
the Saxon Hengist, is credited with
having introduced kissing into the
British islands, but it seems to me
that had the natives been so utterly
unenlightened the Romans could
hardly have failed to anticipate her.
The Romans had really delightful
word for kiss-osculum, which
came from os, the mouth, and meant
little mouth, sweet mouth.
"Give me a sweet little mouth, {"
would be the phrase used when a
good little Roman boy asked his
mother for kiss. Good Words.
