Seven Wonders of COrea.

4 Chinese paper describes the seven
wonders which Corea. like unto other
Oriental countries, possesses, and which
played a conspicuous role in antiquity.
The Corean wonders" consist, first. of
a hot mineral spring near Kin Shantao,
which is capable of curing sickness and
diseases OF all kinds. The second Won
der is the two wells, one at each end of
the peninsula, which have the peculiar
characteristic that when one is full the
other is empty. The water o! the one
is intensely bitter, that of the other has o
pleasant and sweet taste. The third
wonder is a cold cave from which there
issues constantly an ice cold wind, with
such force that Il strong man is not able
to stand up against it. A pine forest
which annot be eradlcatcd constitutes
the fourth wonde,. No matter what in
Jury may be Gone to the roots the young
trees spring up again like the phoenix
from its ashes. The most remarkable,
however. is the fifth wonder-the famous
lowering stone-whjch stands, or rather
appears 70 stand, in front of IA palace
erected to its honor. This is a massive
rectangular block, free on all sides.
Two men standing, one on each end,
can draw a cord underneath the stone
from side TO side without encountering
any obstacle. The SIKH wonder is a hot
stone which has been lying from time
immemorial on the summit Of a hil, .nd
evolving u glowing heat. The seventh
Corean wonder Is IA sweating Buddha.
This is guarded in q great temple, in
whose court for thirty Yards on al sides
not a single blade of grass grows. No
tree, no flower will flourish on the sacred
spot. and even wild crcaresut are careful
not to p~ro!ane il.

Fate of the Old Navy.

The Navy Department is gradually
doing away with the old meu-oi war Of
historical and romantic memory, and a
number of changes affecting them are 10
hc made in the near future. The train
ing ship Richmond at Newport is e. be
sent To Philadelphia TO take the placeof
the IT. Louis, which is in so decrcpit "a
condition that she will probably be
broken up and sold for the material in
her. The Lancaster, now IN China as
the flagship of the Asiatlc station, is
under orders 10 sail for the United
states when the cruiser Baltimore re
lioveS hcg, and her active service as a
war vessel will end IN her arrival az
Newport to take the place Of the Rich
mond.
The Lancaster viii return from China
via the Cape Of Good Hope. and she is
not expected home until March next
In the interim ;he old Constellation,
now on special service, will remSin at
Newport in place Of the Richmond. The
Laucas'cr Will bc fitted ont as IA gGnnery-
instruction ship. New gun-carriages
and guns will be mounted on her and
tested at sea in order 10 allow officers
and men to become familiar with their
workings,
The ESSEX, the successor to the ship
which made so gallant resistance to two
British vessels, the PhWbe and the
Cherub, in Valparaiso harhor in 1914,
while commanded 10y Capt. David Por-
ter, has been thoroughly repaired at the
Norfolk navy yard and is now attached
to the Naval Academy MS part OF the in
struciion feet, and she is also used for
%seamanship and guuncry practice 10y the
cadets. The Swatara and the Pensacola
are now laid up in ordinary at the Mare
Island navy yard, and i, has been prac-
tically decided that they shall not be re-
fitted. and sale and destruction will fol

A Baby's Influence.

Who can resist n baby! Perhaps some
old bachelor will reply that he can not
only resist one. but that he would like
wise consider il II good plan to drown
them all as soon as they were born, in
kitten fashion. We'll, the man of this
type is left out Of the category alto
gcther, and in asking who can resist one
of these dear little helpless bits of hu-
manity we mean who, with n heart, can
turn away from the dimplcd, ~clinging
hands, or not be won over 10y the inno-
cent baby smile. No matter where the
baby appears its influence is felt, says
the Home Magazine.
Let a mother and child enter a car,
and five out Of every six people will do
nothing for the rest of the way but watch
the baby, and the old gentleman with
glasses, who has been absorbed in the re
ports of the stock market, will look
pleased and smile down on the little mite
who has taken such n fancy to his gold
headed cane, and will even unbcnd so
far rs TO beam upon the mother and to
say in his deep bass voice Very fine
child, madam" and if by chance the
little creature should smile up into his
face or evinCe Any desire TO be more
friendly, the austerity that frighteus his
clerks almost ont OF their wits, and keeps
them continually toeing the mark, will
vanish entirely, and in its place will
come an air Of conscious superiority, as
though the honor conferred upon him 10y
the tiny morsel of humanity at his elbow
had made him n tritlc superior 10 those
other of his fellow beings who had not
received any such mark of distinguished
consideration.
Women, old and young unless they are
dwarfcd in their true nature, always love
babies. The maternal instinct is the
strongest and best point in the feminine
character. and from the time of doll
dressing up to the day when their lives
are gladdcncd 10y the advent of a little
stranger, they adore the winsome, help
less human beings that are dependent
upon them for love and support.
The thought of a curly head, a rosy
mouth, or a little lisping voice J~oyously
calling papa" or mamma has kept
many a man and woman from despair
and the many dangers of life that are
worse than death.

ARTISTS or THE ROUNDUP.
Old-Time Texas Cowboys Different
From chose of To-Day.

The old-tirhe cowboy is no more, says
"A writer in the Dallas News. He passed
in his checks with the free grass custom.
The big pasture has introduced a new
order Of cowboys, who sleep in a house
and obey ordcrs' or quit. The old
cowboy was the companion Of his boss
and shared his pleasures aud his hard
ships. No manager in his big h~eadquar-
ter rock house reminded him Of his in
ferior rank in society, nor did any OF
the modern ranch accessories mar the
common dangers, the pleasures and the
freedom and equality of the whilom cow
boy and cowman But the ranch in
the olden time was a wood log
house to cook in, and for roof and pro-
lection from the weather the slicker was
used, and Mother Earth supplied their
beds. The broad range and overhanging
sky answered for house and home.
A roundup in 1s67-1sS0 was not
bounded by wire fences, but the boys
gal!opcd out Of camp after breakfast,
made "A wide sweep and all then drove
toward "A common centre, and 10! direct
~ at that point was gathered a herd OF
stock cattle of all brands, ready for the
cut TO begin.
The heightened man was tabooed. /
remember such IA man appeared at the
ranch OF j. r., in Shackleiord County,
in 1869. lie was "A city fellow, and
would say ''thank you and such
like. His intense %politcness and high
toned nonsense aggravated the boys
nightly. Jim T.. in particular poor
fellow was especially fretted by his non.
sense, as he called it, and tried to ridiculs
il out Of him, but in vain. AT last his
resentment ripened into genuine hs>red,
and it was hard 10 keep the peace be-
between them. for the city fellow had
grit, too. Well, one morning in 1869, at
Mountain Pass, in Taylor County, long
before any one lived in that section. Jim
got awiully mad and gave the city Teller
n cusSing, %whereupon a row resulted
and bloodshed was barely prevented
there and then. We got the city fellow
TO ride off and it looked like peace had
returned. but one hour later Jim b.. and
his amiablc enemy met off at one side Of
the round mp. | happened to be near.
In a flash the city chap ran before Jim,
dismounted, levelcd his gun on him and
demanded an apology or death. jim
jcrkcd ont two siX-shooters, but said
nothing. and instantly the city fellow
fired. Poor Jim rolled off his horse a
dead man. | got TO them Just as Jim
felt. lie died instantly, shot through
the heart. His slayer mounted his horse
and 'lit out" We buried jim and went
on with our herd, two men short, but
with no discordant element among us.
Such was the old way. The boys were
courteous and kind, they were generous
and brave, industrious and honest, but
they would not stand any heightened
nonsense. 4 new era has set in. Which
is the better we cannot say, but one
thing is sure, with all his faults, and
they were many. the old time cowboy
was n man to be trusted in peace or war
and was the very soul of honor.

Avalanches Produced by Railways.

presumed, by the explosions of dynamite
more than by the vibrations of passing
trains in the lower tunnels of the rail-
way. Many witnesses. who have lived
in the neiehborhood since the early part
of the century. will swear to the greatly
augmented number aud force of the ava.
lanChes that now constantly sweep de.

How old Is the Human Race?

what process did he appear and Where
did he appear Summing up all that
biologists and authroro!ogists know, he
appeared certainly so, 0tO years ago, and
il may be as many as s0l, u00 years ago.
The evidences OF his existence which
date back 80, 600 years aye u~nmistakable.
By what process he came into being

and as all the vegetable and animal king

his earliest home was in Southern Eu-

About Thunder storms.

Thunder storms are more frequent In
Java than in any other part of the
world, there being an average of o.
days in each year upon which they
occur. Next to Java comes Sumatra,
which never has less than SO thunder
days" per year. Then comes Hindoo-
stan with SO, Borneo with "a, the Afri-
can gold coast with SO, and the region
around Rio de Janeire, Brazil, with 81.
The European list is headed by Italy,
with 3s thunder days out of the 365 on
an average. Austria has %; Baden,
Wurtemburg and Hungary each aver
age 20; Silesia, Bavaria and Belgium
have 21; Holland and Saxony, 49,;
France, Austria and South Russia, 16;
Great Britain and Switzerland only Z.
At Cairo, Egypt, and in North Russia
and in Sweden and Norway the aver
age is only A per year. In Finland and

The Scimitar Snake.

There is little reptile belonging in
Madagascar known as the scimitar
snake, that is, the curling sword. Run
ming along the back from head to tail
is blacklist, horny substance, which
bends with the convolutions of the
snakes body as readily as would a
wel-tenpered steel spring; and
throughout its entire length it bears an
edge as hard as flint and sharp as a
razor. They are not poisonous, but
when one of them springs on man,
which he likes very well to do, he will
soon have leg off unless cracked on
the pate. Some snake specialists claim
that the presence of this reptile on the
island is the reason there are no large
to be found there at pres.
ent, the curling. sword in back ages
having taken off legs faster than they
could be created.

McetInr Of Goveruors.

Gov. Fishbacls Of Arkansas hns IS
sued call for convention of all the
Governors of Southern States, to be
held In Richmond, Va, two months
hence. The call has been addressed to
every Governor in the South, and its
object 3 stated as being to attract
homeseelxers and capital to that section
Of the country. His Excellency of
Arkansas suggests there "should be
adopted some short, simple, but en-
phatic, method of calling the attention
of the world to the magnificent in
ducements of the South" And his ex-
cellency very properly argues that If
these inducements were known, 'there
ought to be no difficulty IN turning to-
ward our favored region the vast tide
Of investments and Of immigrants
which will follow the wake of tho
Columbian Exposition"
