ApRIFT WITH PIRATES.
A Western Count and Countess Pris-
oners on their Own Yacht.
From the Philadelphia Record.

San Francisco, Cal, Nov. 2.-The Count
and Countess Festetico, high in 'Friscos
400" the countess having been Miss
Haggin daughter of the multi-millionaire
are afloat on the Pacific, perhaps in the
hands of pirates. The count started out
two weeks ago in the yacht Tolna, to cruise
with his wife through the South seas
Now it is rumored that the expedition
may have a tragic end, for the mate, J.
+. Wichman, told some cronies, Just be-
fore he sailed, than he proposed to seize
the yacht, get a ransom from the count,
and then start out on a piratical cruise.
He estimated that the countess jewelry
and the yachts stores would yield several
thousand dollars. He said he had Sc
lected the crew, and there would be no
trouble in capturing the yacht without
bloodshed.

A Sitting Duck Walled in by Bees.
From the Red Buff Democrat

A couple of days ago, at the farm of G..
w. Hutchins, seven miles from Marysville,
a bee tree was found near the east bank
of Feather river, which was cut down to OBJ
tain the honey. After the tree was cut
down to the ground an investigation was
instituted, and the honey located in hol-
low half way between where it was cut
and the top. On cutting open the body
of the tree they seecurd about eighty
dead duck. II appears chat wood duck
had formed cavity through hole that
was originally large enough to admit her
body After laying eleven eggs she had
commenced setting 70 hatch them, and
while doing so the bees had filled the
hole with comb so that she could not get
out, and she died on the nest.

Barnum'S Ingenuity.

The following ingenious trick for Sc
curing visitors to his Museum in New
York was resorted to by Mr.. Barnum.
the great Snowman. Shortly after he
purchased the Museum he engaged a
man at dollar and half a day, and
handed him five bricks, saying:
Go and lay brick on the sidewalk
at the corner of Broadway and Anne
streets, set another one close by the
Museum, third diagonally across the
way at the corner of Broadway and
Vesey street, by the Aston House; put
down the fourth on the sidewalk in
front OF ST. PauPs Church, opposite;
then, with the fifth brick in hand, take
up rapid march from one point to the
other, exchanging your brick at every
point, and say nothing to any one You
must seem to be as deaf as post, wear
a serious countenance, answer no ques-
tions, pay no attention to any one, at
tend faithfully to work, and at the end
of every hour, by st. Paul's clock,
show this ticket at the Museum door,
enter, walking solemnly through every
hall in the building, then pass out and
resume your work"
Half an hour afterward at least five
hundred people were watching his
mysterious movements! At the end of
the first hour the sidewalks in the Vi
entity were packed with people, all
anxious to solve the mystery.
The man, as directed, then went to
the Museum, devoting fifteen minutes
to the solemn survey of the halls, after
ward returning to his rounds. This
was repeated every hour until sun
down; and whenever the man went into
the Museum dozen or more pc ople
would buy tickets and follow him, hop
ing to crafty their curiosity with re-
gard to the purpose of his movements.

SiOux Love Of CofYne.

The Indians have become ex-
tremely fond of coffee, which is
largely issued to them and which
they have learned to prepare we'll.
They have it at every meal, and
often between times The squaws
are good breadmakers, too, baking it
before the fire in cakes like loaves
crusted equally on all sides. Stewed
dog is the piece de resistance of dane
ing feasts and meals of ceremony,
and perhaps the flesh would not have
tasted badly even to us had we not
witnessed the dreadful preliminaries
to its cooking. One killing took
place before our eyes just outside the
lodge. An old woman caught the
unfortunate cur and held it fiat on
the ground while an old man beat
out the brains with club. The car
cass was then held over the fire long
enough tO SINCE off all the hair, after
which it was carved into small pieces,
the two cooks pausing long enough
in their operation to devour the raw
liver as their perquisite. Some tribes
always roast the dog, but these Sioux
boiled or stewed it.-Outing.

Could Dres, Himself.


He was aN :, very little boy, and
he had come TO school that morning
pulled up with pride because he had
a new accomplishment. II can d'ess
me all myself now," he said to the
teacher, and her praise was unstinted.
Il am very proud of little boy who
can dress himself" she said. I'm
sure he will be great comfort in
school, he can do so many things
now, and he is so anxious to do them
WE'LL" Little Tommy drewYa long
breath OF delight and trudged of to
his seat. He never meant to be
naughty any more; he was sure he
never would be. But, alas! school
grew tiresome, and Tommy INDUCED
in several remarkable antics behind
the teachers back. Then he was
discovered and condemned to exile
behind the door.
Time passed, and Tommy was for
gotten, but the committeeman drove
up and while he was alighting Tommy
was remembered. The teacher hast
ened behind the door to release him
from discovery and disgrace. There
he stood, with nothing on but his
little shirt and his little shoes and
stockings His eyes shone; his round
face was smiling and eager. He
looked up triumphantly, waiting for
approval. He had been praised once
for a similar deed. Why not again?
Il can und'ess me, too" he cried in
glee.--Youth's Companion.

Not Answered..

The French naturalist, Cuvier,
talked learnedly on his favorite
science, but like some other wise men,
he was inclined to be prolix. When
one knows subject we'll, he Is apt
to like to talk about it, and to forget
that he may be expecting too much
OF his listeners
The Emperor Napoleon expressed
himself concisely, and liked others to
do the same, but he enjoyed listening
to Cuvier when the scientist would
state MS important conclusions with
out too elaborate explanations.
One day Cuvier was a member of an
Academy dcputation which visited
the emperor at Saint Cloud. The
emperor greeted him cordially.
Monsieur Cuvier, l am delighted
to see you! What did you do at the
Academy last week."
"We studied the beet sugar
question"
"Ah, and what is the opinion Of
the Institute? Does it consider that
the soil of France is suited to beet
culture?"
The question was simple, but
Cuvicr answered it like true savant
He began with dissertation on the
geological formation of the ground,
then he considered the natural
history of the beet, and when finally
he drew his conclusions the emperor
had long since ceased to listen. !!
When Cuvier had finished, the en-
peror hurricdly reused himself from
fit Of abstraction into which he had
fallen.
Marvellous, Monsieur Cuvier" he !:
said. But does the Institute con-
slider the sell of France suitable for !
beet culture?"
Cuvier, imagining that Napoleon's
attention had been distracted in some
way, began his argument again, and
went through with it to the end.
The emperor did not consider his
question answered any better this
time. When Cuvier had finished, he
said:
Il thank you very much, sir. The
first time l see your colleague,
BerthOllet, l shall ask him if the
Institute considers the soil of France
suitable for beet culture. "-Youth's
Companion.

TIE pEposED KHAN. capital of the
principality, also called Khelat, was
occupied by. British troops, who thus
chastised the natives for harassing
the British sOldiery on their march
through the BOlan pass to Afghanis-
tan The deposed Khan ruled his
subjects tyrannically, and 1t was for
the murder of his grand vizier and
several OF the notables of the cOun-
try that the Indian Government de-
posed him. He lived in barbaric
splendor in grand palace in Khelat.
The palace is said to contain $751;
600, 900 worth of treasure.
Beloochistan, Of which Khelat Is a
principally, is generally mountain
Gus. Toward the south and west
there are barren plains, The entire
area is 1876, 900 square miles and the
population less than 1900, 900. In
some of the valleys rice, cotton, to-
bacco, barley and indigo are produced,
and it is said that lemons grow SO
large that man cannot lift one Of
them. Except in freshet seasons
there are few streams. The largest
river Is the Doostee, which flows into
the Arabian Sea. 1t is only, Ordin-
arily, 20 inches deep and go feet wide
at it's mouth. The natives are OF the
mixed Tartar and Persian race. Like
the wild BedOuin tribes they live in
tents. They encase their heads with
