What Some Men Spend on Amusement.

Probably few persons who sit around
a pool table witnessing a clever game of
pool have any idea of the time and money
necessary to become a crack player of
either pool or billiards. New York
boasts many fine amateurs. The latter
are to be found everywhere for that
matter. | have seen men hanging about
livery stable In country village in
their shirt sleeves who can hole all the
balls on an opening at pool, and can run
ffties and hundreds at French carrom.
The great body of pool and billiard
players are in it for the amusement and
exercise. They spend from an hour TO
four hours daily walking around table
and punching the worries. Two hours
day IS thought necessary to keep up
practice. A dollar an hour is not an ex-
travagant estimate of the average ex-
pense in New York. The better the
player the more he plays, and $500
year in walking around table isn't
much for that kind of man. Twenty to
forty years of this, however, represents
in good hard cash considerably more
than that kind of man has on hand at
the end Of his career.-New York Her

TeIegraphing Without Wires.

The problem of telegraph without
wires" has often been preached, but, so
far as / know, even the theoretical reah
cation of this project has never been
seriously attempted until recently, when
Mr.. Edison gave forth his views regard
ing the matter. 1t would seem that Mr.
Edison has actually patented means
for transmitting signals electrically
without the interposition of connecting
wires" What he has to say regarding
this subject is well worth our attention
his discovery that, if a sufficient eleva-
ton be obtained to overcome the curva-
ture of the earth, and TO reduce as far
as May be the earth's absorption, cleo
trio signaling may be carried ON by in
duction without the use of wires con-
Meeting the distant points of signaling
stations.
For signaling across oceans, says Mr..
Edison, this method Will be very service
able, inasmuch as it does away with
the use of submarine cables; while for
communication between vessels at sea,
or between vessels at sea and points on
land, the invention would be equally
important. There is also no obstacle to
its employment between distant points
on land, but in the latter case it is nee
essary to increase the degree of elevs-
ton or height from which the signaling
operations are conducted. because of the
induction absorbing effect of houses.
trees and hills.
Mr.. Edison states that at sea he can
communicate electrically to great dis
lance from a height of 100 feet. This
height could be secured from the mast
of a ship, so that signals could be sent
from ship to ship, and communication
be established, in this way, even over
oceans themselves.-Dr. Andrew VIII

A Tramp's Feast.

Every tramp who makes the grand CIR

and his southern migration, at a certain
fine house in Canton.
The family which occupies the fine house
is as generous as its broad acres, and as
one tramp recently said to another, some

Sunday the family was at dinner, and
with them an unwonted but ever welcome
guest, the youngest son, whose business
keeps him pretty constantly in Boston.
The son-in-law of the house was carving
the turkey, when a ragged and dirty tramp
knocked and asked for something To eat.
The son-in-law placed a leg, some white
and some dark meat and dressing, with
two vegetables, on a plate, and sent the
butler with it to the door.

The Pearl Hunters Superstition

The pearl hunters of Borneo and the
adjacent islands have peculiar super
stitiOn. When they open shells in search
of pearls, they take every ninth find
whether it be large or small, and put it
into bottle which is kept corked with
a dead mans finger. The pearls in the
vial are known as "seed pearls or
breeding ;5earls," and the native Bor-
Moose firmly believes that they will re-
produce their kind. For every pearl
put into the vial two grains of rice are
thrown in for the pearls to feed" upon.
Some whites in Borneo believe as
firmly in the superstition as the natives
do, and almost every hut along the coast
has its dead finger" bottle with from
nine to fifty seed pearls and twice that
number OF rice grains carefully and
evenly slowed away among them. Pro
fessor Kimmerly says that nearly every
burial place along the coast has been
desecrated by pearl breeders" in search
of corks for their botJles.-St Louis Re

Queer HOLSTERS.

Visitors to Portland pier who hap
pened to drop into the lobster house of
Mr.. Lewis Mcdonald were favored with
view Of a bright blue lobster. This
lobster was caught off Cape Elizabeth
by Peaks island fisherman, and yes
terday was still alive The color was
decidedly different from the green of
the ordinary lobster. On the back the
blue was of that deep variety that be-
longs to indigo, and toward the extremi-
ties and under parts shaded off to a
faint, but still unmistakable tint, and
thence into a pure white. The under
part of one of the claws is almost pure
white. The lobster is about eleven
inches long. One claw is full size,
while the other is very small. 1t is said
that one other blue lobster has been
caught off the cape this season. Mr..
Mcdonald thinks of preserving the spe-
cimen.
He has also a pure white lobster,
caught about five years ago and pre-
served in alcohol. Mr.. Mcdonald thinks
it is the only pure white lobster ever
caught. (Me.) Press.

If the experts who have recently been
examining the orchards in the fruit sec
tons of New Jersey have read the in
dications correctly, the peach harvest
of the coming season will be of a phe-
nomenal nature. They say the glut of
1891 will seem insignificant compared
with the colossal crop impending.
The farmers for the most part are a
little skeptical about this prediction.
They say a good fruit year is almost in
variably followed by bad one; bat
prudent housewives, remembering that
last season the hogs were fed upon
peaches and vast quantities of the lus-
cious fruit were allow to rot, because
there were not sufficient cans to hold it,
are taking time by the forelock and
providing themselves with preserving
vessels far in advance of the promised
harvest. The canning establishments,
too, will be prepared to do an enormous
business.-New York Times.

that the snake had just begun TO swal-
