the various processes of bottling, corkng,

part Of this floor is used for these purposes
and for getting the advertising matter ready

are the main business office and the man

gave it away. 1t is covered cup or
hanap of gold, with ten subjects from
the life of St. Agnes wildly portrayed
in translucent enamel round the out
side of the bowl and cover; within are
two medallions, also enameled, the
one with another subject of st. Agnes,
the other with a half length of the
Saviour. On the lower part of the foot
are the four evangelistic symbols in
enamel, and the base is formed of a
cornet of leaves and pearls.
The Spaniard gave up the cup to a
convent, where it remained until 1888,
when the abbess sold it to Baron Pichon
of Paris, from whom the Messrs.
Wertheimer purchased it for $4,000.
The last-named gentlemen agreed to
let the British museum have it at cost

subscribed $500 to enable them to &C
quire it. The treasury gave e2,63O

One Form of 1t, Called 'Blackbirding,'
Carried on by Adventures.
It is high time that the attention of
our naval officers in the Pacific was
directed to the ''blackbirding" raids
that have lately been made upon the
Gilbert islands, says London Truth.
''Black should perhaps ex-
plain, is the local euphemism for the
form of slave trading that is carried
on in the present day under the British
and American flags. Some three or
four raids of this kind appear to have
been made upon the Gilbert islands
within as many years by one American
adventurer. The natives-men, women
and children-are decoyed on board by
pect open to them. They are landed
on the hospitable coast of Guatemala,
and there, after few months of
virtual slavery, the bulk Of them speed

we ought to protect them against this
form of buccaneering. g.

ONE OF THE FAMILY.
A Street Scene That Would Have De
lighted the Late Henry Bergh.


1t would have done the heart of the
late Henry Bergh good if he had wit
messed scene at Thirty-fourth street
and Third avenue the other day, says
the New York Herald.
Lying in the dirty black mud in the
middle of the streetwas a dignifed dog
of the Newfoundland species.
Standing over him in sorrow was an
elegantly dressed young man.
''Come on, old man, get up. Get up,
that's a good fellow. pleaded the
young man, while the dog feebly
moved his tail and rolled his eyes to-
ward his master, but did not move.
Then the youth acted.
Dropping book, which he carried,
into the mud he stopped and lifted the
Undiscovered dog in his arms and
carried it to the sidewalk, depositing
it by the side of building.
His clothes were besmirched, the
bosom of his shirt and his cuffs were
soiled, but he paid no attention to his
appearance. He thanked an urchin
who handed him the soiled book and
then hailed cab.
"You see, he's an old dog" he said
to me alphabetically, noting my inter
est in the episode.
''He's one of the family, you know.
I just brought him in from the coun-
try, and the rafting and jolting of the
cars must have acted unfavorably
upon his heart, because he gave out
and fell right where you saw him.

The British Museums Latest Acquisition
james LIS Gift to Spaniard.
James 1. was a monarch always hard
up, but exceedingly lavish with other
peoples 'Fbawbees." Although he has
now happily been defunct for over two
centuries, says the London Telegraph,
his generosity with goods not his
own has, according to the report of the
trustees of the British museum, just
cost the country and several patriotic
Englishmen the sum of $1,000. While
he was king a Spanish ambassador
came to England to conclude peace,
and among the presents James award
ed him was the royal gold cup, an ex-
ceedingly valuable vessel, fashioned in
France in 1891 by command of the due
de Berry, as gift to his nephew,
Charles VI.
1t is supposed to have come to Eng
land in return for money lent to the
French king to carry on his wars; at
all events it is found in the inventory
OF the royal chattels of Henry VI. and
remained in the possession of the

ETY. and rarity of some of the species.
Various theories were advanced to ac-
count for the phenomenon; some
thought that the mass of masonry
raised so high in the air Intercepted
wandering germs of plants, which the
southern sun quickened into life;
others, that the birds that colonized
there by thousands and built their
nests beneath the jutting frieze, had
transported the seeds from distant
lands; others, that some property in
the cement, prepared in the first
century of the Christian era, had
proved favorable to exotic vegetation.
All was theoretical; no conclusion was
reached. But the fact remained that
many plants, elsewhere unknown be-
meath the Italian sky, there blossomed
and bore fruit.
About the middle of the eighteenth
century an English botanist made an
herbarium of 1.-THE Flora of the Coli
scum" which numbered more than
four hundred distinct species.
A century ago it was decided that
this growth might be, in some unde-
fined manner, prejudicial to the public
health, and most of it was removed;
to-day only simple flowers, small
shrubs and vines remain to tell of the
luxuriant vegetation which fringed
and crumbled the ragged parapets of
that once magnificent amphitheater
Those who were privileged to see
that majestic ruin thus clothed in it's
garb of beauty, lauded the benefcent
Mother Nature who, with vines and
flowers, kindly concealed the scars of
time. A fragment of verse from an IN
known source lends it's poetic coloring
to this prosaic fact, adds deeper sig
nifcance to the idea suggested and IN
vests it with new beauty:
There is no ruined life beyond the smile OF
heaven,
And compromising grace for every loss is given;
The Coliseum's shell is loved OF flower and vine,
And through its shattered rents the peaceful
planets shine'
