Drinking Iced Water.

1t is pity that with our fondness for
copying Old World vices, small and great,
we should not be willing to adopt some Of
their virtues as well. In the matter Of
drinking iced water the native American
is a constant marvel to the European. At
some of the hotels across the water designed
to cater to our citizens abroad the notice
is broadly published on menu cards, circu-
lars and even in newspaper notices, "Ice
water served for drinking purposes" The
average German landlord has only lately
begun to understand that his American
guests want water to drink, and he has by
no means recovered from his astonished
horror at the quantity consumed as bev-
erage
A woman who spent winter in Munich
at boarding house tells of coming down
one cold morning to breakfast and asking
for glass of water. The servant brought
it, round eyed with wonder, but docile.
AS it was placed before the guest the pre-
siding fraulein caught sight of the glass.
"Oh" she said quickly, don't drink that;
it is fresh from the faucet. Send it to me
and will warm it" and she reached for
the hot water kettle. 1t was with difficulty
that she could be made to believe that per
sons over here drank iced water winter
and summer alike IL wonder you live at
all, she commented feeIingly, 'if you treat
your stomachs like that."-Her Point Of
View in New York Times.

The term fixed" applied to the stars, is
mistake for it is now known that there
is not fixed star in the heavens, and prob
ably no such condition as absolute rest in
the universe. All the stars are in motion,
and some Of them are moving at the rate
Of 100000 miles an hour, or more than
thrice the velocity Of our earth on its orbit,
1t might be thought that this constant mo.
tion would produce continual changes in
the stellar relations and alter the face OF
the heavens every few years.
But the vast distances at which the stars
are set from US destroy the visual aspect Of
their motion and preserve the unchanging
aspect Of the heavens None Of the con
stellations have suffered dislocation in
5000 years Sirius, Arcturus and the Pie.
iades are still in their places. Although
the eighty-one stars in Orion have ever
been in motion, each without relation to
any other, the mighty figure is as it ap,

The CraYfsh.

There is no reason why crayfshes should
not be introduced very proftably in the
fresh waters all over the United States,
and it is not unlikely that the fish commits
sion will take steps to accomplish this end
The crayfish closely resembles the lobster
in appearance, its meat being much more
delicate in flavor, and it would be very
nice indeed if the streams and ponds in
every state Of the Union could be stocked
with this huge Species which is very pro-
life, and can be made at home anywhere.
An interesting burrowing variety of a
small sort is very plentiful on the Poto-
mac meadows near Washington.
1t lives in holes, with bottle shaped en-
largements at the bottom, where the ami
NAL can usually be found by digging. In
the spring each one builds over its burrow
a sort of chimney six or eight inches high,
composed of Jumps of mud, which it fetches
and piles ingeniously on top of one another

Mr.. FOUGERAY'S CASE AGAIN.

The Police CommIssi Acts In the Case.
Reward for the Arrest Of Begley's
Murderer.
Before the Police Commission last
evening Rene j. Fougeray appeared and
preferred charges against Patrol Ser
geant McDermot. The charges were
First, false arrest; second, false charge
third, using language unbecoming an
officer Of this city.
Sergeant McDermot's testimony was
reported in the Municipal Court proceed
lngs last Tuesday. The sergeant stated
that he did not, as charged by Mr..
Fougeray, use the words G. d. your
soul. He never uses such language
towards any man. Sergeant McDermot
further stated that he is at the patrol
station to do his duty and he intends to
do it,
William Coburn, disinterested per-
son, Officer Harkins and Driver Collins,
testified that Mr. Fougeray declined to
leave the station when requested to do so
By the sergeant. Mr.. Fougeray deposed
as to the cause of going in there, first.
Mrs. Kelley also testified TO the same
effect.
The commission considered that Mr.
Fougersy had no right to threaten the
officer or to interfere with him in any
way around the station, yet as they
did not approve of the language used
passed the following resolutions:
Resolved, That while we do not ap
prove of the language, namely, What
in the h are you doing here" used by
| Sergeant McDernot, we do not see any
ground for action against him.
The orders to rolice officers are very
strict as to corner lounging and it must
be said that the officers are doing admir-
able work in this direction. Two coloreC
men named Ferrell and Campbell wer,
recently arrested. At the police station
Ferrell was let 60 as he had not beer
warned and had been holding a converse
