RRMARKALLE ATHLETES.
Tradition Tells OF Wonderful lien Who
Lived in the Grand Canary.


Lived in the Grand Canary.
From the National Feuiew
After the Spanish occupation Of the
Grand Canary certain enormous stone
was for long time pointed out as one of
the instruments of the Gaunche athletic
courses. The natives had been able to lift
it, set it on their shoulders and even throw
it over their heads. Their degenerate pos
terity, and the Spaniards, could not raise It
from the ground.
Tradition has immortalized one Adargo-
ma Of Grand Canary who could wrestle for
two successive hours, and having been
thrown undermost in a certain contest, got
his antagonists between his legs and arms
and squeezed him SO that his bones began to
crack.
The native was subsequently sent as
prisoner to Spain, where he astounded the
people by his performances. One day, in
Seville. he was visited by brawny youth
of La Manoha, who was anxious to try
bout with him. MY good friend :"
said Adargoma, ''as we are going TO
wrestle t0getler it is only reasonable
that we should begin by drinking
been brought he took this in one
hand, and continued to address his chsl-
lenger: IF with both your arms you can
overpower one of mine, so as to binder me
from drinking every drop of this wine, we
will try our strength together. II not you
| may return to your own home" The strug
gle took place, and Adargoma by degrees
drained the bowl in the coolest manner
without spilling drop Of the wine His
one hand was more than a match for the
other two.
1t was reckoned nothing out of the COM
mon for man to take an untethered OK by
the horn with one hand and Stay it with the
other. A certain native-born priest of
Grand Canary, in the seventeenth century,
showed that he inherited some Of bis ances
tors vigor. He could not only kill au OK in
this way, but one day, hearing that an
enraged bull had broken loose and
was in the street, be ran out, and,
grasping it by the leg. threw il down
and so held it until its owner was
able to secure it. This doughty son Of the
church before bis death CHANGED TO have one
of his legs amputsted for a cancer. twas
then found that bis thigh bone was solid,
with no trace Of marrow. 1t must be con-
fessed, however, that the relics Of the Cana
rlans now found In their burylng places do
NOS bear out the inference that this was a
national Characteristic. though their dimen-
sions are certainly a testimony OF the
strength and size Of their late proprietors.

Advice for Bald Heads.

A writer in an English medical paper
says that much Of the prevalent idi-
opathic badness, that is, badness not
due to previous disease or exciting
causes, could be prevented, or, at all
events, modified, If people would take a
few sensib lie precautions. A head COW
ering should be used as little as possible
and never indoors, in trains or in closed
carriages. In summer and still weather
straw hats are best; in winter, light
felt, ventilated and unlined. Too con-
slant washing of the hair is unneces-
sary, as well as harmful. Once a week
is quite enough for cleanliness as well
as for maintaining the strength Of the
hair. The same remark applies to
constant brushing; continued brushing,
especially with hard brushes, should
be avoided. There is a common notion
that greasing the hair is vulgar, and it
Is now regarded as bad FORM" The
consequence is that many people fall
into the other extreme, and never apply
any pomade at all. After the hair has
been washed it is quite beneficial to
apply a moderate quantity Of some
form Of simple grease or oil.

naval committee in the naval appro-
priation bill has provided for the i'm
mediate building of huge and swift
cruiser that when completed will be
the largest swift cruiser afloat belong
ing to any nation. She will have dis
placement of about nine thousand tons
and speed Of twenty knots. Her first
battery will be tcn-inch rifles, three
hundred and fifty Founders, firing one
hundred and seventy-ave pounds Of
powder, the grains Of which are an
inch cube. It is intended to make this
vessel the acme in workmanship. guns
and engines Of American science in
steam, gunnery and ship building. In
size she will be nearly as large as the

An Unauenchable Fire.

One of the curiosities of this country,
curiosity that does not appear in the
histories, is the burning mine at Sum-
NIT Hill, near Maunch Chunk, Pa. It
has been on fire since 1858, and no
scheme or device, though hundreds have
been tried, has been able to suppress
the flames. You can see nothing but .
hill from which steam and gas escape
at a thous and different points. The
rocks are so hot that sometimes it is i'm
possible to touch them without pain,
and all vegetation on the mountain has
long since disappeared. How deep
the fire extends there are no means of
knowing, but it certainly must be q
miniature volcano, and millions of tons
Of coal since the fire first started have
thus been slowly consumed.

The inhabitants of Rat Portage,
Ont, are very anxious to have the
name of their town changed. Its grow
ing Importance, they think, demands
for it more dignifed and delicate
name, and their pride and cultured ears
are hurt by the appellation of Rat
Portagers, by which they are known.
Petitions for change have been sent
to the authorities, and the names sug-
gested by the. petitioners include Van
Horn, Sylvana, Minnesobie and Sui
tana. The latter is much favored, but
the Rat Portagers evidently do not see
the danger of their staid citizens being
known as Sultanas.

First and Second Class Cities.

First and Second Class Cities.
Probably no one who had not OBJ
tanned information on the subject could
make reasonable guess at the number
of places in the United States contain
ing 1000 inhabitants Or more. The
lguesses by the uniformed are general
ily from 100 to $4,000, but the United
States census discloses only S,715.
Moreover. there are only 2,552 that
have o population exceeding 1,500. At
the other end of the line the returns
ere no less remarkable, for there are
only seven cities with population ex-
ceeding 100000. There is abundant
room for growth in these cities and
towns, but the places with 1000 or
more population already contain Al per
cent. of the total population of the
United States. The larger cities, it ap-
pears from the returns, are growing
more rapidly than the country ut large.
Thus in 1880 there were 2s6 pieces hav-
ing 5000 inhabitants or more, the COM
bined population Of such places being
% per cent. of the whole. In 1890 there
were 44s such places, containing 20 per
cent. Of the whole population.

a Commotion at W.shineton.

A Commotion at Warrington.
Washington social circles have been
Ehaken to their centers by the innova-
tion upon lcng-established custom, in
itroduced by Mrs. Secretary Noble At .
dinner lately given In Washington.
Hitherto the president, as the guest par
excellence of any banquet which he
may see fit to attend. has been given
the seat of honor usually accorded the
specially -honored guest, at the right Of
the hostess. 1t appears that Mrs.
Noble sent to London not long since to
insure herself Of the English custom in
the matter, and, acting on her lad
vices from abroad" she gave President
Harrison, at the dinner mentioned, her
own place at the head of the table and
seated herself at his right and her hus-
band opposite the president. And now
o storm of remonstrance is raging at
the capital. It is all very well, say the
critics, for Queen Victoria to usurp the
place of her host, since she is supposed
TO own him, mind, body and estates, but
in republican America the president is
sufficiently and suitably honored when
he is placed at the right Of his hostess
II now remains to be seen whether
Mrs. Mobiles carefully-prepared plan
