chillies in double their weight of rec
titled spirits of wine, keeping them in
a warm place for a week to make a
strong tlncture; then dissolve gum
arabic in water to about the consist

quantity as the tincture; stir both to-
gether with small brush until thor
oughly mixed, when the preparation
will appear cloudy and opaque. Then
take some sheets of tissue paper. coat
one surface of each with the mixture
and let them dry, after that give an
other coat. If the surface is shining
when that has dried, enough has been
applied; if not, third coat is neces

be applied like court plaster to I'M

Facts About Orchid.

Here are some interesting facts about
these strange weeds of the tropics. Or
chids do not live without water. They
do not live on air alone. They are not
grated from one to another, but vari-
cites are produced by hybridizing.
They are obtained originally from
their native place, and are rarely pro-
duced from seed. since it takes a long
time for the seed TO ripen, year of
ten to terminate, and from three to
perhaps ten years to flower They are
often divided and plants secured in
that way. Flowers last on the plants
from six to eight weeks, and even
when cut last nearly month. New

Profitable Egg Hunting.

A case in some respects similar to
that of the famous man who jumped
into bramble bush is reported from
Kennebunk. Mrs. A. f. Wood, lady
who had been lame several years, went
to the barn loft to gather some eggs and
in sliding down upon the hay, with
her lame limb, hearing something
crack she felt she had broken some
bone. She called to her husband for
help and when he lifted her up she
found she could walk better than be-
fore. The igameuts which had adj
hered to each other by non use were
broken apart, improving her lameness.

Life of Toatis.

The persistence of life in frogs is
very long. Spallanzani preserved
some frogs in mass of snow for two
years. They became dry. stiff. and
almost friable, but a gradual heat
brought them back to life. Toads
have been shut up in blocks Of plaster,
and then, having been deprived of all
air except what may penetrate through
the material, and of all sources of food,
resuscitated several years afterward.
Toads are said TO have been found in

SULLIVAN'S TRAINER.
Phil Casey Thinks That John VIII Be
an Easy Man to Handle.

New York sun.
The mode Of training Sullivan for his fight
with Corbett is a subject that is causing
considerable discussion. No men know
better than Charley Johnston and Phil
Casey, the big fellows respective hacker
and trainer, what is best to put their charge
in form for the coming conflict, and as
neither man has as yet expressed himself
in regard to the matter, all accounts pertain
ing to the event have been merely con-
lectures.
One thing seems to be pretty certain, that
before Sullivan begins hard work there will
be a thorough understanding between him
self, his hacker and trainer. and the respOn-
sibility of his getting into condition will
rest with Phil Casey. backed up by Charley
Johnston, who will take more than the usual
interest in the preparation OF his man
Nothing as yet, however, has been outlined
either as to the character OF SulIiyan's train
ing or tho selection OF tTaining-grOund.
Coney Island, Oyster Bay and Patchogue
have been mentioned as atfording special
facilities for Sulivan's work, but it is safe
to say that neither OF these locations will be
selected.
In talking to a Sun reporter about the
match yesterday Casey said: "a proper
training-grOund Is OF the utmostlmportanee.
| must say that COrbett has picked out
good spot in Asbury Park But. then,
that place has its objections. 1t is generally
flied with summer residents from the large
cities, and it is just such things that wish
to avoid. Quarters near salt water are just
the thing II you can get them properly
located. My idea will be To get as far away
from railroad communication as possible.
Then, it is necessary to be removed from
the temptations of all liquors, but | should
want a place where il is convenient to get
the proper food and have the facilities for
cooking it, 1t is likely that Mr.. Johnston
and myself will visit number of places
within the next 10 days for the purpose Of
selecting a site for a trainlng-grOund."
Have you any set rules regarding the
training of pugilist?" the reporter asked.
None at all" was the quick reply. Il
consider that everything depends on the
man. of course you must know your man
pretty thoroughly. Now, in the case Of
Sullivan, | don't anticipate any trouble at
all. He will be obliged to make sacrifices,
but he is not new man In the business,
and therefore knows what Will be required
OF him."
arationP
E"Why shouldn't he? Nature has endowed
him with such a wonderful constitution,
that with all his reputed faults of the past
few years. he is as sound man as ever"
''But it is said that he is hard man to
train and very irritable"
sullivan is going into this affair with
Corbett as if his life depended upon the
result. He is confident of winning; so am
/. But we will take no chances. Therefore
Sullivan knows probably better than any
other man, what will be necessary to get
about the matter, and little conferences
between us Pm sure will lead to happy re-
suits Another thing, | don't think That
Sullivan should be charged with irritability.

ALONG SEA And SHORE.
A Mutin0us Crew ON the British
Ship Ulrica.
Four Men Put In Irons-The Story Of the Old
Columbia-Narrow Escape Of the
scow-Sloop Widgeon.

The British ship Ulrica arrived yester-
day morning, 139 days from London.
An addendum to the log states that four of
the crew were put in irons on the voyage,
and thereby hangs tale.
The Uirica sailed on January %. but had
bad weather at tie start and was compelled
TO put into the Downs to wait for fair wind.
The anchor was weighed again on February
9, and for the next few weeks the voyage
way uneventful and everything on board
was lovely. The Ulrca is a fine new four
masted vessel with all the modern improve
ments, but the average sailor has an unhOly
weakness for rum. gin, whisky and ''sper-
rits" generally. The crew of the Ulrica
were not exempt from this little weakness,
and the discovery of gin-bottle liz the fore
castle so long after the vessel had left port
set the mate to cOgitating whether the
cargo had been preached. He and Captain
LittlejOhn were not long in finding that it
had. aud that the % men in the crew must
have bad pretty good time. Not only were
more bottles found. but a search revealed
the fact that the hold had been ransacked
and rummaged as thoroughly as a customs
officer might have done in q legal way;
bulkheads had been cut through, and in

CAPTAIN LittlejOhn and Mate Gulland had
a big job on their hands, but they measured
up 10 H. The mate caught two men in the
act OF raising up liquors from the ready
hands Of the comrades below; and after a
desperate struggle secured the men. The
crew seemed a first inclined TO attempt a
rescue, but a few lOyal members stood in
with the officers and the scale was turned.
Two other men who we're easily connected
with those already seized were captured
aud the four were placed in irons.
