A Queer Tribute.

In many instances, particularly in
olden times, large and powerful ma
tions have demanded tribute from
smaller and weaker states. This de-
mand was generally complied with by
the petty ruler, who fancied that
such step would render his throne
secure. When tribute-paying king
thought he could whip the other he
generally stopped making any pay
ment, and then there was a fight
about it. AS a rule the tribute con-
sisted of so much gold or some rich
product Of the country. A queer
tribute, however, was ~exactcd by
King Edgar the Peaceable, who ruled
over part Of Britain about 900 years
ago. Then there were several petty
kings scattered here and there, and
much larger number OF fierce wolves
ran wild. So in 96l King Edgar
commanded that 'all who paid him
tribute should pay IL in wolves heads,
and from Wales he demanded 300 an
nually. AS there were plenty OF
wolves this tribute was easily paid at
HISUi duu ptOplc III JlOSc udyS ulu lOU
regard the selection Of wolves heads
as at all queer, for the payment Of
tribute was merely an acknowledge
ment OF the other. nations strength.
So the wolves head tribute was Iegu-
larry paid until wolves began to get
pretty well thinned out, and parts Of
England were entirely Invested of the
animals, which, perhaps, was just
what the king wanted. - Harper's

OF preserving the peace. The infer

closed eye shall open may be expected
to look into the matter.

CT pot. A piece OF pink glass Is pulled
out at length; there is the dragons
body. 1t is bent quickly round, the
tail curling upward, and with incred-
ible swiftncss, each touch nicely cal
culated, the head is fashioned, the
mouth open breathing flame. Here
comes the fame, a morsel Of red glass
from another furnace, put deftly In
the open mouth, and fashioned in
three or four touches into long,
pointed tongue. Then come the
eyes, the wings, the legs, and there is
your dragon, marvel Of art wrought
in some six or seven minutes. So the
piece is built up in sections. each join
ed to the other by heat, and the work
stands complete-a miracle Of design
and color, created straight from the
brain Of this 1.-the and handsome
Italian, as true an artist as he who
paints pictures, makes statues and
builds churches.
But there is fearful penalty which
all these artists must pay. Blindness
comes upon them at middle age. The
glare OF the furnace, the fierce radi-
ance Of the molten glass, burns the
eyes, and at 40 or Whereabouts they
become blind. Benvento Barovier,
though he scarcely looks more than
30, cannot even now see to read. 1t
Is fate these glassworkcrs cheerful

ing the years OF youth and early man
hood they devote their lives to art,
to the production Of fragile dreams
of beauty in glass which touch will
pulverze, aud then they are content

toise-shell comes from the. Indian
archipelago and is shipped from Sin
gapore; and much Of it is obtained on
the Florida coast. There are three
rows Of plates on the back, called
BLADES" by the fishermen.
In the central row are five plates,
and in each Of the others four plates,
the latter containing the best mate

five small plates around the edges OF
the shell, known as feet" or moses. {"
The biggest turtle does not furnish
more than sixteen pounds Of tortoise

thrown away, being considered worth
less; but at present it is very highly
valued for its delicacy OF coloring.

of tortoise-shcll is made of cows horns.

'MAMAKONECK, N. Y, Aug. IA
fire broke out shortly after midnight
last night in the handsome stables OF
John A. Bostwick, of the Standard Oil
company, at his summer residence on
Oriental Point. overlooking Long Island
sound. The fire departments of the
surrounding villages hurried to the
scene. When they arrived. however,
the Bostwick stables had not only been
Quilted, but the flames had communicated
to the stables Of Mr.. Constable. of Ar
mold Constable u Co., of New York.
After the fire had burned out it was
learned that Mr.. Bostwick's coachman
and foOtman We're missing. They were
known TO have been sleeping in their
apartments on the second floor in the
stable. An eXamil. alton of the debris
was made as soon rs possible and their
cnarred bodies were found among the
debris.

body was carried into his room. and the
greatest excitement prevailed in the
household. The nearest physicians, who
had been summoned, arrived only to be
of no service.
The dead coachman and footman went
on a boating trip yesterday ON the
sound, and i, is said that when they re-
turned to Mr.. Bostwick'S place last
night they were both under the in1u-
ence of liquor. 1t is supposed that the
fire was started by either the men care

the stable. Eight valuable carriage
horses and a number of carriages and
carts were destroyed. The stables wers
