THE JULIET SAFE.
Northwestern Students All Land at
Chicago.

CHICAGO, June IA The steamer
juliet. with the graduating class of the
Northwestern university, arrived at the
dock near the Northwestern depot at
3:15 o'clock this morning. All on board
were safe, despite the experiences of the
evening and unaware of the anxiety
which their failure TO return had caused,
or of the reports of disaster to the craft.
The trip, while eventful, was not at
any time considered dangerous. Capt.
Napier said that the scare was all non

A Curious Adventure.

An Alabama duck-hunter had q
curious adventure, one day, while out
On the water in his skiff. Some years
before he had lost his leg in a rail-
road accident, and the limb had been
replaced by cork substitute, useful
for ordinary purposes, but preventing
him from following game, except in
4 boat On this occasion, as he was
an expert marksman, he had always
loaded the skiff with ducks, when, in
reaching after a particularly fine
bird, he overreached and upset the
boat. Down went the birds, the gun
and the hunter, and there being a
,wift current at that point, the boat
1rifted away before he came to the
surface. Being unable to swim, the
hunter clutched wildly for a sup
port, but found none, and would GER
tainly have been drowned had it not
been for his cork leg. 1t kept him
ifoat, and at first he was oyerjoyed;
then he became apprehensive. The
,ork leg had a tendency to invert
him in the water, and, after strug
cling against this for some time,
ne managed to unstrap the limb and
lse it as float. 1t was then easy
% paddle ashore, and the hunter was
Javed although he lost nearly every
thing else but his life

There was recently received at Den
yer a piece of rock which was once
tramped on by several pairs Of small
and well formed feet. The rock
must have been soft at that time, for
the impress of two sandals IS plainly
outlined, just as If a cast had been
made to show the inhabitants Of the
coming ages how artistically beauti-
full were the feet of those who wan
dered IN the mountains before the in
vasion of the white men. The rock
was found near the brickyards at
Golden, Col. 1t seems to be OF an
ordinary limestone formation, except
the surface where the prints are,
which resembles sandstone which has
been worn smooth by water One in
dentation is particularly noticeable.
Although similar in size and contour
to those made by sandals, IL has a
heel-mark which is sharp and deeper
than the others.

This bacciferous herb with esculent
roots, as Houghton calls it, or opti-
mum benigni Numinis donum, dapes
grata diviti; pauperi panis, as an
eminent botanist styles it, was first
discovered in America, according to
Gerard's Herbal, published in 1897,
which authority is quoted by the
Encyclopedia Britannica.
The Spaniards met with 1T in the
neighborhood of Quito, and Spanish
books refer to it as early as 1853. 1t
was introduced into Spain from Peru
by Hieronymus Cardan, a monk.
Thence it passed into Italy and Bel
gium.
Sir Walter Raleigh carried it from
Virginia to Ireland, according to the
same authority, IN 1910.
The American Encyclopedia says;
''It is thought that its (the potato's)
occurrence in Virginia was due to a
recent introduction by the Spaniards;
there is no proof that it was in culti-
vation by the aborigines Of this coun-
try or those of Mexico"

Occasionally some one applies to
the Fish Commission at Washington
for Il consignment of eels' eggs, to
stock pond or stream, and the re-
quest is invariably refused. This is
not due to any intentional desire to
be disobliging, but because nobody
knows whether eels lay eggs or not.
= TO breeding, the eel is the most
mysterious animal in existence, and
the question has been a puzzle to
learned and unlearned for centuries.
Some authorities have contended
that eels grow up from horsehairs,
which, in some strange manner be-
come yitaliZed. Others have held
that they were generated spOntane-
ously from slime, while Others still
have gravely advanced the belief that
they came from the skins of old eels,
or similar eXuvi8 of water snakes.
Most popular among people who
get their living from the water, how
ever, is the theory that eels are the
progeny of various other fishes. The
Sandman fisherman assert that they
are produced by certain kind Of wa
ter beetle. which ior this reasoa is
called mother of eels.
All this mystery about the eel, as
science has learned in the last few
years, is due to the fact that it lays
its eggs in the sea, where no one has
a chance to observe the process.
Other fishes, like the shad, leave the
ocean to spawn in fresh water
streams, but this curious and slippery
customer does precisely the reverse.
The young eels, newly born or
hatched, leave the salt water and
make their way in armies up the rty-
ers. Obstacles apparently insur-
mountable they use the utmost in
genuity in passing, even travelling a
considerable distance on dry land in
order to get around an obstruction.
In the spring and summer any Wis
itor at Niagara Falls, who descends
beneath the great sheet Of water at
the foot of the falls, will see literally
hundreds of cart-loads of small eels
wriggling over the rocks and squirm-
Ing over the whirlpools. OF course it
is impossible for them to go over the
falls, and thus it happens that, al
though eels have always been plenti-
full in Lake Ontario, there were none
in Lake Erie until they had been
planted in the latter body Of water
artificiallY.
Inasmuch, therefore, as eels must
go to the sea in order to propagate
their species, they are found not To
multiply at all when placed in ponds
that are landlocked, although in such
places they will grow rapidly and be
healthy. 1t costs so little to pur-
chase young ones by the quantity that
this is no great obstacle to theuseful-
ness OF stocking inland waters with
these fish.
In all probability eels lay eggs, just
as do nearly all other fishes. The
only difference is that they deposit
them in the sea instead of in fresh
water.

The Hindu places a clock in his
show-rooms, not because he ever de-
sires to know what the hour is, but
because clock is foreign curiosity.
Instead, therefore, OF contenting him
self with one good clock, he will per-
haps have dozen in one room. They
are signs of his wealth, but they do
not add to his comfort, for he is so
Indifferent to time that he measures
it by the number Of bamboo-lengths
the sun has travelled about the nori-
Zon.
In the country police stations,
where the European division of the
hours is observed, time is measured
by placing in tub of water a copper
pot in which small hole has been
bored. 1t is supposed that it will
take one hour for the water to
leak into the pot so as to I'LL and sink
it. When the policeman sees that
the pot has disappeared he strikes the
hour on a bell-like gong. II he is
smoking or doing, the copper pot
may have disappeared several minutes
before he discovers the fact-but the
hour is when he strikes the gong.
A writer in Temple Bar. from
whose article we have CLEANED, tells
an amusing story to illustrate the
Hindu's Indifference in this regard.
When the railway was first opened
in rev part of India, it took a long
time and many bitter experiences to
convince the natives that a train al
ways started on time. Shortly after
the opening of the new line, Deputy
Commissioner sent his native servant
with his letter-bag to put on board
the mail-car. Presently the man re-
turned with the bag, having missed
the train.
"You had not half mile to go,
and you knew that the train left the
