CROCODILE EGGS.
A Great Delicacy Among the Indians OF
South America.

A Great Deltcacy Among the Indians oil
South America.
Crocodile eggs are considered great
delicacy by the Indians of OrinOco, who
roast them in hot ashes just before
they are ready to hatch. They have a
white skin like parchment, yielding to
the touch when handled, yet so tough
that it is quite difficult to break them.
They are about twice the size of a tur-
key egg, and the Indian who likes them
need never go hungry during the croco-
dies breeding season, for they are ex-
ceedingly plentiful. Each female croc-
odile will lay on an average forty eggs.
These she deposits in a hole in the
sand, leaving them to be Matched by
the hot sun.
Despite her generally wicked ways
and bad reputation for general cussed-
ness, the female crocodile exhibits in a
variety of ways strength of maternal
tenderness that is surprising. After
depositing her eggs in the nest she
carefully covers them with sand to save
them from the ichneumon and various
reptiles who prey upon them, and who
succeed in finding large numbers of
them in spite of her care. Then when
the period of incubation is over she re-
turns with infallible instinct and assists
them in their first efforts to get ON in
the world.
After leading them to the nearest
water, however, she leaves them to shift
for themselves, which they are album
dainty able to do, for they begin snap
ping and biting at everything within
reach before they are fairly out of the
shell and take to fishing as contentedl
as though instructed by Izaak Walton

we are positively assured by the Off

that suspicious occasion. We are quite
willing to accept the assurance, but
from present indications we can hardly
expect to see every portion of the expo

ly upon the officials to do everything
in their power to hasten matters, and
it is safe to say that when the moment

TIRED OF PRACTICAL JOKES
The Members of This Family Can still Feel
Their Hearts Thump as the Result of
One.

| The Members of This Family Can still Feel
Their Hearts Trump as the Result OF
One.
| There is one family in Brooklyn
which has resolved never again to play
practical jokes. This resolution was
brought about in very peculiar way.
The family is excellently connected So
cially, and its fair name has never been
soiled by the smoke of scandal
An innocent little joke few weeks
ago, however, threatened temporarily
to do so. 1t was such n close call that
every member of the family can still
feel his heart thump. This is how it
all happened:
When one of the daughters was mar
ried, short time ago. the rest of the
family demonstrated their good feeling
toward the young people by playing all
sorts of pranks on them. The brother
of the bride followed the expressman
who took the trunks to the railway sta
ton, and when he got around the cor
ner tackled rosettes of white ribbon all
over them They went to their destina-
ton decorated this way.
The younger sister of the bride added
to the humiliation of the couple by
sending a letter tied up in a pink rib
bon and addressed in large letters:l
''If not called for in ten days return
to the brides parents, No. - street,
Brooklyn"
The bell boy who took the letter up
stairs smiled suggestively when the

something substantial, which the groom
was only too willing to give.
The brother of the bride was married
several weeks ago, and his sisters COM
bined to make him sick" They sue
ceeded unintentionally in upsetting the
entire family. He thought he was very
foxy" and told his sisters they had
his permission to do anything they
pleased. He refused to tell where he
and his bride purposed to spend their
honeymoon, but the young women dis
covered it
They sent his bride a series of letters
and some one identity not known)
sent kilograms to the various hotel
keepers, signed apparently by the
groom's father, which read:
'If Mr.. and Mrs register at
your hotel please notify me at once at
No. street"
1t was these kilograms which created
the disturbance. The hotel clerks
shifted an elopement Mt once, and told
the correspondents of the New York
newspapers They sent the slip" by
telegraph to their papers The city ed
itors noted that the name was good and
the locality first-rate, and reporters
were Immediately sent out TO work up
what promised to develop into a rat
Ting story.
The first man to call stated what his
paper had received and asked for infor-
nation of the head of the house. That
individual was fairly paralyzed. He
called a convention of the family to or
der in the parlor, and there was the
liveliest kind of session. Each dele
gate wanted to explain at the same
time.-N. Y. Herald

This wonderful temple is the coun-
terpart of the great Ho-o-den palace at
Mi, near Kioto, Japan, one of the
groups of the BidodinS. 1t is built of
wood. with tiled roof, the cross trees
being logs whose ends are beautifully
carved in the form of lions heads The
temple, it is said, is intended to repre-
sent the Hoo, a fabied bird of the Jap
anese; the two-storied central part
being the body of the bird, the col
onnadeS on the sides the wings and
the corridor a. the back the tail On
the top of the original structure are
two phenixeS. three ard a half feet
high, made of bronze and so flexible
that the wings and heads are moved by
the wind. In all it is a wonderful and
picturesque structure. and when com
pleted throughout will be one of the
most valuable buildings on the fair
grounds.
The original Ho-o-den or Phoenix hall
dates back to the year 1867. but it was
built twelve hundred years ago. 1t was
at first the home of cele brated Japan
csc nobleman, at whose death it was
converted into a monastery and after
ward became the shrine of "Amedia,"
the buddha of Japan. The decorations
of the temple are all by famous artists,
and consist of works in gold lacquer,
bronze and mother of pearl.
The interior decorations of the tenn
pie on the wooded island at the fair
are said to be far handsomer and more
valuable than those of the original
structure, and many additions in the
way of ornamentation have been made.
All the art work on the building has
been done by picked artists, and no ex-
pense has been spared to make the
temple feature of great beauty. 1t
is to become the property of the city of
Chicago after the fair is over, being a
present from the emperor of Japan.

There are several buildings erected
by these people in different parts of
the grounds, and there will doubtless
be much attraction in them for the Wis.
itors from rural districts, who have
never seen anything Of the kind. The
beholder will be struck at a glance
with their extreme neatness and airi-
ness and the spicy aroma which seems
to hang about everything that comes
from Japan There is a sort of booth
to the northeast of the Ho-o-den temple
which is marvel of neatness in every
detail. It is built entirely of bamboo
poles. as are most of their structures,
which are split and spread out so as to
form sort of ornamental clapboard-
ing. The roof is made of large canes
rent in twain and arranged in an in
and-out fashion so as to form cutters
to shed rain. Japan may we'll feel
proud of her showing among the ma
tons at our great fair, for she is ably
and fully represented, and while their

Opening Day.

An impressive ceremony was wit
messed at Jackson park on the first day
of the present month. 1t was the dedi-
cation by the japanese and worlds
fair officials of the Bo-o-den temple on
the wooded island which lies in the
lagoon in the center of the fair
grounds. The event was cele brated in
the true Oriental fashion, the exercises
being conducted by the Japanese COM
missioners in the full regimentals of
their native land.
1t was in truth curious sight that
was presented to the American guests
of the occasion, and one that will
doubtless be remembered by them long
years after the great fair has passed
away and many of its features have
passed from mind
The japanese workmen were ranged
in line before the temple and during
the exercises sang their native song, a
very weird, and it must be confessed,
unmusical refrain, yet peculiarly suited
to the occasion.
The whole affair betokened the
spirit of international fraternity, for
which it may be said these people are
noted, and in their speeches the Jap
anese officials alluded to the friendly

The report has been circulated that
Alfonso NIL. the infant king of Spain,
is to take part in the opening exercises
of the fair, but this is automatically
contradicted. and it is furthermore as
certained that neither the young king
nor his mother will be present

will be it is impossible to state, as suf-

in the programme. 1t was thought up
to late moment that the exercises
would be held in the open air on the
green at the east front of the Govern
ment building, but the committee on
ceremonies has, it seems, decided to
hold the opening exercises in Festival
hall, which faces the lagoon between
the Horticultural and Transportation
buildings. From an elevated platform
in this hall President Cleveland will
address the people and press the button
which will set the machinery in motion.

NO DISCRIMINATION.
The Interstate Commission Renders an
Opinion In the Southern Egg Case.


Opinion In the Southern Egg Case.
WASHINGTON, April 12.-The inter
state commerce commission in an opin-
ion by Commissioner McDill, announced
its decision of the case of Charles II.
Brownen against the Columbus & Gin
cinnati Railroad company in favor of
the defendant. Upon complaint al
leging unjust discrimination against
carload shippers of eggs in
favor of shippers in less than car loads,
it appeared that under the "oficial
classification, eggs take second-class
rates for car loads or less quantities;
that the commodity is carried in re-
frigerator cars; that for carload ship
ments, ice to the amount of 5000
pounds is furnished by the carrier
without extra charges; that less than
carload shipments are taken from 10
cal stations in pickup" cars to dis
tributing points and forwarded in car
loads to New York and other large
markets; that notwithstanding the
special facilities afforded to small ship
ments by the carriers, the large dealers
control SO per cent. of the traffic.
Held, that no unjust discrimination
results to the carload shipper from the
equal rating of carload and less than
carload lots, and the special service
rendered in gathering and forwarding
small shipments, and the complaints
should therefore be dismissed. Com
missioner Morrison dissented.
