Remarkable Musical Prodigy.

Blind Boone was born in Miami, Saline
County, No., in 1868. His mother was
a contraband, cooking for Federal SOL
diers. He lost his sight with brain
fever when only six months old. His
first musical instrument was a tin
whistle, on which he could play any Or
dinary air after once hearing it. His
next, with mouth-organ, charmed all
the young folks of Warensburg, where
his home was. Some Warrensburg peo.
pie sent him to blind school to learn a
trade, but his bent was towards music,
and the attempt to teach him anything
else was failure. He left school and,
with little company, tramped around
through the State. Finally John Lange,
of Columbia, shrewd, intelligent col
ored man, took hold of the prodigy,
fitted up company, and Boone is now
playing under his management, pleasing
audiences all over the United States and
Canada. He has amassed considerable
fortune, has an elegant home in Colum-
bia, gives literally to every good cause,
and is respected by all his acquaintance.
He is the most remarkable musical
prodigy of the present generation.-

Bum BILE Bees in New Zealand.

The introduction of the humble BET
into New Zealand few years ago to Sc.
cure the fertilization of the red clover,
and the remarkable success of this ven
ture are matters of record. In a recent
paper George NJ. Thomson presents an
interesting article on the Bombi intro
duced in New Zealand. giving also list
of the plants and flowers which are
visited by these bees. He makes the
interesting statement that, with a few
exceptions, he has never heard of these
bees visiting the flowers of indigenous
plants, but states that they have become
SO extraordinarily abundant that the ques-
tion has even arisen in his mind as to
whether they would not become as seri-
Gus pest to the apiarist as the rabbits
have proved to the farmer and cultivator,
on account of their absorbing so much of
the nectar of the flowers. He also points
out tie remarkable fact in connection
with the life of the humble bee in New
Zealand, that in many parts of the colony
it does not seem to hibernate at all, but
is to be seen daily on flowers all the year
round. Insect Life.

An Old japanese Diary.

The oldest diary in the world accord
ing 10 japanese paper, is that of the
Hozaka family, landed proprietors Of the
province of Kaschin. The diary has
been conscientionsly kept by the various
heads Of the family for more than three
centuries. 1t was begun at the time of
the fall of the Takedas, who were mas
ters of Kaschin under Yoritomo, the
great Japanese ruler. The pages of the
ancient books fail to show that the
Hozakas were especially distinguished
either for intellect or prowess. There
is no doubt, however, that they were con-
scientious in the discharge of their
duties, and lived the peaceful lives of
japanese gentlemen. The state of the
weather was naturally matter of great
Importance to them, and each day they
chronicled its condition. But the books
have other entries as well. A short time
ago dispute over precedence took
place between two branches Of the same
family in Kaschin, each claiming to be
the original line. The contestants ap-
pealed to the Hozaka diary and found
the record of a dinner given several
hundred years ago by the head of the
family to the founder of the side line.
The record even contained the names of
the dishes eaten at the dinner, and effec-
tually settled the dispute. The various
volumes of the diary now fill eight
chests, and form the chief treasures Of
the wealthy Hozaka family.-Chicago

Big Figures About Brooklyn Bridge.

No doubt many people have wondered
what becomes of the millions of tickets
sold and collected annually by the New
York and Brooklyn Bridge Company.
One who has given some thought to the
subject tells what might be done with
them, and incidentally gives other figures
showing the magnitude of the traffic on
the BGdge. Here they are just as he
gave them:
"Over forty-one million of people
crossed the bridge in 1891 on the bridge
cars and promenade. Gould all the hands
which have purchased tickets be joined
together at the end of the year, q circle
could be formed 14,112 miles in d.
ameter, or AZ, 1856 miles in circumference; !;
distance equal to one and one-half
times around the earth. If the grand
chain were suggested, and the fastest
trains and ships employed, it would be
nearly three months before one could
make the bow and return to his place be-
side his partner.
ga solid square of 20, 634 columns of
1000 men each, covering over three
square miles, or 1000 acres, could be
formed of the ticket purchasers.
sit would take $3.50 passenger
coaches, allowing sixty persons to the
coach, or 1858 trains of fifteen coaches
each to carry this crowd away. If a
hundred minute could be counted
without stopping during the twenty
four hours, it would require over eight
months to count them. Ifhollow squares
of 300 feet square can be conceived to
be placed one upon the other, the enor-
nous height of nine miles would would
be reached. By forming triangular
pyramid with o base of 20,460 square
inches, pyramid could be had much
higher than that of "Cheops" in Egypt.
If stretched out in line, so that the
head of one person would touch the feet
of another, they would reach distance
of SO, ,179 miles.
1.-THE carriages, wagons, etc., that
cross in one year would, if strung out,
reach 25, ,732 miles, or more than once
around the earth.
''lt would take train OF AZ, ,45S box
cars, with 2123 engines, to haul the
people away, and would, if coupled to-
gether, cover 322 miles, or reach from
New York to Richmond.
"The tickets, if joined together con-
tinuously, would reach from New York
to st. Paul, distance of over thirteen
hundred miles, and would weigh very
nearly ton. There would be enough
tickets to cover the bridge promenade
to the depth of an eighth of an inch. If
spread out they would cover 573, III
square feet, or thirteen acres of ground.
There would be enough tickets to cover
the walls, ceiling and foer of the Fifth
Avenue Hotel corridor f:ty-seven times.
More than a thousand ordinary sized
rooms could be papered, and if piled up
under pressure, one on top of the other,
they would reach "a, 800 feet, or over
six miles high.
''It would require sixty cars, five feet
high, ten feet broad and forty feet long,
to store all the tickets used in one year. u

FASHIONS IN sASHEs.

The new sashes which are to BE- so
fashionable next season are very wide,
very elegant, and not so very expensive,
considering their quality and device.
Five yards are often used where the
wearer is tall and elects for the Louis
Quinze sash, the ends of which reach
quite to the foot of the dress skirt. Some
of the new Russian blouses for young
girls are made of the gay Persian SASH
ribbons, with a trimming of the same at
the hem Of the dress skirt, or showing
as simulated petticoat between the
slashings of the outside skirt with sash
of the same at the back of the blouse, or
looped at one side if preferred. The
itch Louis XIV. sashes show wide stripes
of watered silk alternating with those of
silk or satin, with bright Pompadour
figures scattered in artistic groups down
these stripes. The floral patterns in
some of these beautiful novelties are ex-
quisitely colored and blended. Shot
silk sashes are shown in which velvet
changes into gold, white into silvery
blue, gray into Roman red, olive into
rose and gold, black into gold, and
ecru into gold and palest water-green.-

FASHION NOTES.

Black stockings are in fashion for all
occasions.
Patent leather shoes are the proper
thing for evening wear.
The belted Russian blouse is to be the
popular corsage for wash dresses.
Corselets of jet, sometimes with the
addition of bretelles, are very desirable
and fashionable.
The new sea green that is to be one of
the fashionable colors this spring and
summer is called celadon.
Half-mournng handkerchiefs are
shown with narrow insertions and edg-
ings of black chantilly lace.
Collarettes and cuffs OF lace, chiffon,
or embroidery net are popular for the
Frightening up of sober gowns.
Handsome pieces OF faille with streaks
of satin running across them, having the
wave effect, are for trimmings.
Some fancy styles in gloves have
dainty, narrow, stiffeued cuffs gaunt.
lets, with delicate silver or gold en-
broideries.
Walls of tulle, in tints of various sorts,
are worn with evening bonnets. Some
of these walls are long, and are wound
around the throat.
Large metal buttons, stamped and
enameled, will be used in most varied
designs this season. These will be seen
IN raised borders in relief with medallion
centers, and with additions Of silver and

ROUND WAISTS.

The fashion of round waists will be
continued all through the season. They
are elaborated by jacket fronts, and thus
made are especially becoming to slender
figures. The Eaton JAG ket was a nov
city introduced into the trousseau of
Miss Corvallis West. 1t, too, like the
square Figaro, cannot be utilized for
stout women. One of the most success
full visiting dresses is of navy blue
vigonne, made with the bell gored-skirt,
bordered at the hem by side plating of
black satin, above which appears band
of many colored passementerie in the
palm-leaf pattern. The skirt is fastened
by hooks on bodice of black satin
made full at the throat under collar of
the passementerie and brought down over
the front by three enameled studs. Over
this is square Figaro bordered with e
row of tiny palm leaves like the three
inch trimming on the skirt. The sleeves
are of cloth and the back is in effect a
princesse, but, in fact, the meeting of
skirt and bodice is hidden under black
satin ribbon. Herald.
