NICARAGUAN WARFARE.
How Few Rebels With a Boy Com

DR.. Wf1ewell Knew Too Much for
His Table of Fellows.
London Gentlemar

London GentIelnan.
1t is customary for the master of Trinity
to dine in the college hall at the fellows
table on Sunday nights. On these occa-
sons Dir. Whewel was in the habit of
monopolzing the conversation, says the
London Gentlewoman. Whatever subject
was started, lie knew more about it than
any one else, even when it was the special
line OF some of the lecturers of the staff.
AT last the fellows put their heads to-
gether, and determined TO read up some
abstruse question which it was highly i'm
probable Whewell knew anything at all
about, and bring it on the following Sunday
night.
A branch of Chinese metaphysics was
chosen. One of the fellows began it, an
other took 1t up and so on. Whewell never
said a word until the whole thing was
nearly thrashed out.
The conSpirators were engaged in ln-
wardly congratulating themselves on the
success of their stratagem when Wnewell
suddenly clapped his hand on the table.
Why" he said, 81 know quite we'll
what you have been doing; you have been
reading the article contributed to Frazer

thing is exploded now. l will soon put you

And then to those assembled fellows did
the master proceed to explain the whole
subject until the time came for them all 10

A VIRGINIA MARVEL.
Great Natural Ice.House on Stone
Mountain in Scott County,
Richmond stat

NAOuutosn Iu SSOkL SOuhtys
Richmond State.
In the north side of Stone Mountain, six
miles from the mouth OF Stony Creek, in
Scott County, has been discovered ma
tural ice-house on a grand scale. One of
the old settlers first discovered it about
1880. but owing to the fact that the land
on which it is situated could not be bought,
he refused to tells its wherea bouts, and
would only take the ice from it in case Of
sickness.
He died without revealing the secret to
even his own family, and but for party
u sang" diggers entering the region 1t
might have remained secret for genera
tons, as it is situated on an unfrevuented
part OF the mountain.
The ice was only protected from the
rays of the sun by thick growth of moss
resembling a texture. and like the moss
that can be seen dangling from the oaks of
Louisiana and Texas. Its formation was
after the fashion OF a coal vein, being
few inches thick in some places. while
several feet in others. The formation IN
dictates that it had been spread over the
surface in liquid state and then con-
gealed. By what process it freezes or was
frozen is matter of conjecture at this stage
of investiga ton. Some thing that 1t was
formed in the winter, and had been pro-
tected since by the dense growth of moss
which covers it, while the more plausible
theory is that beneath the bed is situated
great natural laboratory whose function
is the formation Of ether. and the process
of freezing goes steadily on through the
heat as well as the cold. The growth of
moss resembles the hanging moss around
Hudson Bay, and indicates a frigid tenn
perature. The bed covers une acre, and if
it proves inhaustible it will be valua BILE,

Only Dodds.

General Dodds. who bravely fought the
amaZons of DahOmey. and more bIavely
the fevers OF Africa, has been greatly hon
ored in Paris. This has caused the ex-
pressiOn of fear in certain quarters that
Dodd will be made popular idol. as was
Boulanger. The mere suggestion, un-
founded as it must be- is humorous. The
French are bero-worshiping people. but
they do not need military hero just now,
and if they did there is nothing in the
achievements Of General Dodds, brave
soldier though he certainly is, to entite
him to the distinction of public idol. He
has no dangerous wounds won in desper-
ate conflicts to excite sympathy. He can
not ride horse with the superb aplomb
of Boulanger or a Carter Harrison, and
it is not probable that anybody will weave
his fame into catchy tune like the "Bou-
LANCER March," Besides, DOdds is not a
romantic and mouth-flling name. One can
hardly imagine Dodds popular idol.

Imperial Telephone Etiquette.

He introduces his telephoned orders

AS soon as chief Of department hears
these words he motions that his subordi-
mates must at once leave the room.
The significance OF this arrangement is
supposed to be that the chief is having
something like an audience with his Maj
esty, and that it would be pIesumptuous
for person not summoned to hear the i'm
perial voice to occupy the same room into
which its tones are conveyed.
