oae OF Natures Freaks Found in County
of Wyoming.


One OF natures strangest freaks, one OK
Devils Tower. or. as the Sioux Indians call
IL, the Matee Tepee, or the Bears Lodge.
which stands on the banks of the Belle
Fourche river. ia northeastern county or
Wyoming. The country for fifty miles
around consists of high table-lands. deep
canons, and narrow. fertile vaileys-no--
thing to indicate the possible existence OF
any such freak OF nature.
The tower is gigantic column, q mon.
ster obelisk Of lava. which rises 70 neiens
of 1,727 feet, almost twice the height OF
the Eiffel tower. At the base the huge
shaft measures S26 feet through IN one di-
rection. Huge crystals Of the volcanic
rock. measuring 1 to feet through, start
at the base and run unbroken 90 the TOD,
giving to the column a peculiar nDrous ap-
pearance, even when viewed from tue ea-
ble-lands forty miles away. ..
How did 1t get there How was ~
made? Once in while IN the present age
we have heard how portions OF the BOTTOM
of one of the oceans have been pushed. up
by volcanic forces. and even new island
added to the charts. Ages on ages ago
similar volcanic forces started jet OF
lava up from the bottom of the ancient
geological ocean that covered all the
Northwest at that time. The squirt OF
molten rock evidently did not break
through it into the waters above, put
froze. as an iron man would say. In the
hole IL had made. The slow cooling on,
the gradual loss of its fiery energy. prooa-
bly, lasted for many long years and gave
time for the particles TO arrange them,
selves in the huge crystals that arouse ali
of our astOnlsnment to-day.

Portions of the Old Testament on Pa
pyrus on View In London.
London (Eng.) Tlmesl
A curious document was submitted TO
the Congress of Orientalists Assem- bled
in London recently. 1t is papyrus man
uscript discovered few months ago IN
Egypt, and is supposed by some authori-
ties to be the oldest COPY extant OF por-
tions of the Old-Testament books OF Zecha-
riah end Malachi.
These pages of papyrus. when intact,
were about 10 inches high and inches
wide. each containing % lines of writing.
both sides of the sheet beng used. The
complete line contains from Ii TO II letters.
The sheets are bound together in the form
OF a book in q primitive though careful
manner, with cord and strips OF old parch-
ment. The Greek of this document IS
written without intervals between the
words-a custom observed both in old
Greek aud old Hebrew manuscripts. The
papyrus IL in fair preservation. and IL oe-
iieyed 10 date from the third or fourth
century. Ii thus ranks In age. with the
Oldest Greek manuscripts of the Septua-
oint version of the Old Testament in Lon
don, Rome. and st. Petersburg.
Ii has been shown TO several OF the Uni :
yersity professors in Vienna, who consider
il TO be genuine The British chaplain.
distinguished Orientalist, gave an account
oft at the congress. The differences IN this
papyrus tend to the conclusion that It
was copied from some excellent original OF
the Septuagint Bible. which was first trans
lated about the year go b. o., Tor the use
of the Hellenistic Hebrews in Egypt, who,
having gradually forgotten the Hebrew
tongue. had learned to speak Greek.
The first summary examination has
shown that 1t has several new readings
which surpass some of the other Septua.
gint texts in clearness OF expression and
simplicity of grammar. II would also ap-
pear that it was copied from another Sep
tuagint Bible. and was not written, as was
frequently the case, from dictation. A Sc
oond scribe has occasionally corrected
some mistakes of photography made by the
original copyist. These are still clearly TO
be distinguished by the different color OF
the ink.

Majority and Plurality.

To ne Editor of the DisDdtch:
What is the difference between ma
jority and plurality! A. >.
Mdjority-The greater number; more
than half the whole number. Pturd'itv-
In United States politics the number by
which the votes cast for the candidate
who receives the greatest number exceed
the votes cast for the candidate who re-
ceives the next greatest num.or when
there are more than two candidates and
no one candidate receives q majority of
the votes. If A receives 5000 votes, B
4 900. and G 5000 no one has majority,
but A has a plurality of 1000 over B. In
most OF the States plurality elects q
candidate; in others--as Connecticut
and Rhode Island-if no candidate Gas for
Governor) receives a popular majority,
the election goes to the Legislature.

While Lieutenant Wolf, of the Twenty
second District, was sitting at front win
dow at the station-house yesterday after
noon he saw what he supposed was vo-
man dressed In mans clothing walking
down the sidewalk toward Lehigh avenue.
His first thought was that it was crook or
an escaped criminal trying 10 conceal her
identity. Special Officer Whitcomb, who
came along Lehigh avenue just then, ar
rested and brought her into the station
house.
"What is your name2" asked the Lieu
tenant.
Mrs. Peter Watchhern. of Park avenue
and Bishop street," answered the woman.
Then you are not q man, as you would
like the public to believer" said the
Lieutenant TO Mrs. Watchhern.
The woman became very serious and an

II was foolish enough TO wager that
Harrison would be reelected. and IN the
event Of his being defeated 1 was to walk
the square several times in succession
dressed in mems clothing, and that is the
reason why / am thus attired."
She appealed to the Lieutenant not to
make any trouble for her, and she was per-
mitted to 60 home, badly frightened.

WYTHEvILLY, Va.
To the Editor Of he DisDdtch:
Why is the barber-pole painted red,
white, and blue?
What is the emblem of our country?
SUBSCRIBER.
The barber's pole was originally painted
red or black and white. and the stripping
was in imitation OF the ribbon with which
the arm of person who has been bled is
bound up. indicating that the barber once
combined minor surgical operations with
his other work. The blue stripe was
added, we presume. by Americans in view
of the fact that blue is one of the colors of
the United States flag.

DntY on Tobacco.
To he Editor Of

HESTER, N. q.
To he Editor of he Dispatch:
Will you kindly state what the export
duty or tariff is on leaf and manufactured
tobacco per pound, and does the taTih not
cause the present low pricesp j. X. j.
There is no duty or tariff on leaf or
manufactured tobacco exported from the
United States. and therefore there Is no.
thing in the question bearing on the price
of tobacco IN this country. An export
stamp is required of the export manu-.
facturer to be affixed to tobacco shipped
for export, but it costs nothing and is fur
nished by the revenue department. and
bond in double the amount OF the value of
this tobacco is required of the exporter to
guard against the tobacco's being returned
TO this country and being sold without
payment of our import duty of 6 cents per
pound

Cancelled postage-stamps vary in price
according to country, denomination. and

These dealers issue catalogues. giving the
