The Pearl Oyster.

Very few people are aware that the
pearl oyster is not in any way like the
oysters which we eat. It is of an entire
ly different species, and as a matter of
fact the shells of the so called pearl oys-
ters are of far more value to those en-
gagged in pearl fishing than the pearls.
There are extensive pearl fisheries in the
gulf of California, and some of the finest
pearls have been taken from those wa
ters. In 1881 one pearl-a black one
was sold for $4,000, and every year
since that time many pearls have been
taken from the beds in the California
gulf valued at over 1880 each.-Chica-

Announcements of Marriages That Have
Been Unceremoniousiy Interrupted.
A few years ago n ludicrous, albeit
vexatious, incident occurred at n church
In Larkhall. A rustic couple, after hav-
ing had the banns published the pre-
scIibed number Of times, proceeded to
thu church to be joined in holy wedlock.
The service was conducted without a
hitch until the officiating clergyman ar
rived at that part where he asked, "Wil-
liam Wisher, wilt thou have this woman
to he thy welded wife?" when the bride
groom replied with some astonishment
that his name was not William Wisher
The ceremony was Of course suspend
ed, and on investigation being made as
to the cause Of the mistake it transpired
that the bridegroom had written to the
sexton of the church requesting him to
have the banns published, and concluded
his letter thus, $50 no more from your
we'll wisher and Mary Williams" The
sexton, supposing that William Wisher
was the name of the intending Benedict,
published the banns accordingly, and
the disappointed couple were compelled
to await the publication of the banns in
their proper names.
The precentor of country parish
church near Arbroath one Sunday an
nounced from his place that "there was
solemn purpose of marriage between
Alexander Sphinx of Fishers loan and
Elspeth Hackett of Burn wynd," when
the parish beadle, who was something
of a character, suddenly arose and un-
tremendously interrupted the proceed
ings by exclaiming: "That's wrang!
That's wrang! It's no Sanders Sphinx o.
Fishers loan that's gaun to marry Els
peth Hackett, but Lang Sanders Sphinx
o Smiddy croft" The name of one of
the parties had been wrongly stated in
the proclamation paper, and this was
the way the beadle took to correct it.
Some years ago middle aged agricul-
tural laborer called upon the session
clerk of Alloa and asked him what the
charge was for publishing the "cries"-i.
e., banns of marriage-three times on
the same Sunday. "a pound" replied
the clerk. Aye said the other, IAN
what dye TAX when ye talk two Sun
days to do'tr" "Half a guinea" was the
reply. "An what dye charge when yo
TAX three Sundays to't?" was the rus
tics next query. "Seven and six" an
swered the clerk, with an amused air.
"Aye, man." rejoined the querist, 81

Milford, Miss and the Dog,

A travellers tale of British phlegm l.
told in the following terms: A French.
man was seated in smoking carriage
and had for his companion a "milord
Anglais." Enter British miss-of
course with plaid and protruding teeth
and Skye terrier. She sat opposite the
Milford. He politely informed her that
she had by mistake got into a smoking
carriage. She made not the slightest an
swer. but sat grimly on.
The Milford threw away his cigar, much
to the astonishment of the Frenchman,
who, according to the story, sat watch
ing what would happen. When they
reached the next station, the MILFORD said,
with the cold dignity of his race and
cast: MADAM can now change into a
nonsmoking carriage. If she does not, |
shall assume that she does not mind
smoke and shall light another cigar"
Madam said not word, but stared in
front Of her. The train went on again,
and the Milford lighted up. When his
cigar was well alight and the train in
motion, the lady bent forward, took the
cigar out of the milord's mouth and
threw it out of the window. The milord
not only did not make any remark, but
he did not even seem disturbed. All he
did was to wait minute, and then to
bend over the lady, seize the Skye ter
rier, which was lying in her lap, and
fling it out of the window.
OF this act the lady, to the complete
astonishment Of the French spectator,
took no notice whatever. At the next
station both the lady and the milord got
out, but without exchanging word in
regard to the cigar and dog incident,
while the Frenchman turned over in his
head an etude on the subject of "Les
Anglais taciturnes. London Spectator.

High Explosives.

There are certain explosives of high
power which, when heated, burn quietly
If freely exposed, or If confined explode
only at the spot where heat is applied
without the whole mass taking part in
the explosion. Nitroglycerol, dynamite,
gun cotton, picric acid and the new
German military powder are examples.
This is said to be because they are bad
conductors of their own explosive wave.
If, however, the same substances are
subjected to violent shock by the ex-
plosion in their midst of initial charges
Of mercury illuminate, the shock seems
to affect all the molecules Of the explo-
sive at once, and the whole mass of the
latter explodes with enormous violence.

The method of strengthening copper
steam pipes by means Of coiled metal

in the Italian navy. The practice is to
serve the tubes with one or two layers
Of wire wound under tension. The
method is not considered applicable to
other thar straight tubes. The wire is
Of sufficient strength to carry the full

A Wonderful Timckeeping Automaton.
One of the most wonderful timekeep-
ers known to the horologist was made
in London about 100 years ago and sent
by the president Of the East India COM
pany as gift to the emperor of China.
The case was made in the form of q
chariot, in which was seated the figure
Of woman. This figure was of pure
ivory and gold and sat with her right
hand resting upon tiny clock fastened
to the side of the vehicle. A part of the
wheels which kept track of the flight Of
time were hidden in the body of tiny
bird, which had seemingly just alighted
upon the lady's finger.
Above was a canopy so arranged as to
conceal silver bell. This bell was fit
ted with miniature hammer of the
same metal, and although II appeared to
have no connection with the clock regu-
larly struck the hours and could be
made to repeat by touching diamond
button on the ladys bodice. In the char
lot at the ivory lady's feet there was q
golden figure Of dog, and above and in
front were two birds apparently flying
before the chariot. This beautiful orna-
ment was made almost entirely of gold
and was elaborately decorated with pre-
cious stones.-St. Louis Republic.

WATERS FREAKS.
Two Rather Extraordinary Cases Re.
ported from Southeast New
Mexico.

r. H. Pierce reports that the Penasco,
a beautiful stream that has prosperous
settlements along its banks, has disap-
peared, leaving much of the land along
the course without water supply. The
recent flood carried away the banks of
settlers bitches and cut down deep into
the river channel, securing out the earth
and exposing gravelly bottom, through
which the stream sinks and is lost. "It
used to be that way" said Mr.. Pierce,
''until cattle tramped in, knocking down
the banks and packing the bed of the
river. But this has been cut away, and /
fear the people are sufferers" he said.
If the fears of the loss of the water are
realized, it will be discouraging to. the
people along that fertile valley, for their
easy method of tapping the water supply
for irrigating bitches will no longer be
available, and probably nothing but an
submerged dam based on the bed rock
will suffice.
report was current few days ago
that the "hottom had fallen out" of the
Dark Canon wells. J. A. Eddy states
while pumping was in progress from one
there was great ,commotion in an ad-
joining we'll ana the bottom dropped
thirty-iive or forty feet, lowering the
water level in the wells and tunnels, but
still leaving it high enough to supply the
pump. One of the wells was filed by the
canon flood. Large quantities of gravel,
mud, and dead fish were deposited in the
well and tunnels, and will have to be re-
moved immediately.-Eddy Argus.

NEW PLACER FIND.
Shot Gold Panning on Pine River
Some Excitement in San
Juan County.

In San Juan and Rio Arriba counties
there is some excitement in regard to the
placer fields just below the mouth Of
Pine river. As yet there can nothing
definite be said. That there is gold there
is beyond all question, but the difficulty
of saving it may be SO great as TO render
the fields yaiueless. The depth to bed
rock is uncertain and it ia feared that
much water will be encountered be-
fore it is reached. The reporter
for the San Juan County Index
has been on the ground and looked the
field over. He saw some panning being
done which showed great many colors,
principally shot gold. The fields are
extensive and the people of San Juan
county are focking in and locating
claims. In fact, shanties and tents are
springiny up all about the now find and
every village and settlement in north

representatives on the ground. The San
Juan county press takes very conserva-
Two view Of the discovery, however, and
has decided to fLd out Just what the
facts are before it makes much ado over

VOORHEES, FLOP.
Senator Voorhees,, deserter from the

senate yesterday to crowded chamber,
but it did not have the effect in favor of
unconditional repeal that the gold bug
advocates expected it would. His ex-
planation as to his reasons for deserting
the silver cause at this critical per-
iod were considered weak. 1t is
charged that he was won over by the pat
ronage bait of the administration by Gro
yer Cleveland, silver's most determined
enemy now in public life. The silver
leaders will explode Voorhees, arguments
at the proper time. When Senator Teller
takes the floor to answer VOORHEES, it will
