Mrs. Cleveland's Carriage.

Early last February Mrs. Cleveland
gave an order in New York for a pri,
vate carriage. 81 want" said she, mot
a state carriage exactly, yet one to use
on all important occasions. 1t must be
a landau, so that it can be used in wet
or sunny weather, roomy and comfort
able, and elegant in design, while not
gaudy nor pretentious."
The literal embodiment of these in
struCtions is constructed on beautiful
lines. The body is hung higher than
is customary, and is very roomy. The
color is dark olive green, with black
holdings, which have a hair-line of
apple.green to brighten the dark colors.
The gear and wheels are black, the
spokes on the latter having broad bands
of apple green. This tint appears again
in faint lines on the spring brackets
and on the carved spring bar, On the
doors and back is the monogram Sc
G." in plain lettering, also in applegreen
The lamps are circular and deep
and on each are four bands of silver
but no filigree work. The doorhandles
are embossed silver, and the door. pulls
ebonized. The top is of black enameled
leather, especially tanned to withstand
daily exposure. The top opens readily,
converting the vehicle into an open
carriage for pleasant days. A silver
thumb screw on the body ceiling holds
the tops together, and the change is
made by single touch.
Dark green Turkish morocco is used
in the upholstering, faced with apple
green silk and bordered with broCadeC
lace of the same shade. The window
sashes and ceiling are of dark greer
cloth The price was $1,000.

Is the Sea Serpent a Reality Z

The great sea serpent has hitherto
been regarded by most people as a
myth, but it may be assumed that its
authenticity is now placed beyond any
doubt by the treatise on the creature
just written by DR.. A. c. Oudemans,
director Of the Geological Gardens at
The Hague. The Professor declares
that the animal is no sea serpent at all,
but belongs to the unclassifed species
of genus of Pinniped. The length Of
the monster in adult specimens he
reckons at ESQ feet, dimensions far in
excess of anything attained by the
saurians of the pre-Adanite peri ID.
DIR. Oudemans has arrived at his very
exhaustive conclusions regarding the
form, habits, mode of life, disposition
and geographical distribution of the sea
serpent from an historical and critical
examination of all the notices of the
appearances Of the animal upon which
he can lay hands. He seeks to show
that the monster is represented by only
a few individuals, the race being in
process of becoming extinct. The
great Pinniped, the Doctor says, is
harmless and timid, and it frequent'
the warm ocean currents Of the Atlantic
making only cratic journeys to othel
seas Its rate of speed, from the
extraordinary vertical fluctuations of its
hugh body, is far beyond that of oul
fastest steamships, so that in sterr
chase it could never be overtaken.

Wonderful Sense of Smell in Dogs.

1t has often been proven that dogs
are able to track their masters through
crowded streets where it would be i'm
possible to attribute their accuracy to
anything except the sense of smell
alone. Mr.. RomaneS, the naturalist,
once made some interesting expert
ments as to this wonderful power, ps
exhibited in his own dog.
In these tests, which were elaborate
enough to deserve longer and better
description than can be given in single
"Curious Note" the naturalist found
that his dumb friend could easily follow
in the tracks of his master, though he
was far out of sight and that, too, after
no less than eleven persons had fol
lowed, stepping exactly in the tracks
made by Mr., ROmanes, it being the
deliberate intention to confuse the
senses of the poor dog if possible.
Further experiments proved that the
animal tracked the boots instead of the
man, for when Mr.. Romanes put on a
new footgear the dog failed entirely,

AN ANCIENT EGYPTIAN SHRINE.

The British Museum has been en-
riched by a remarkable gray granite
shrine from the island OF PhiIe, south
of the first cataract in Upper Egypt,
presented by the Egyptian Govern.
ment. This relic was originally in the
Great Temple there, visited by Strabc,
who says that he saw on a shrine bird
which the priest called a hawk, but, he
adds, it was larger than and diff rent
from the native hawks, and had a dis
tinguishing plumage. The bird, too,
was sick and nearly dead There is no
abs olute proof as yet that this was the
very shrine, but it is highly probable,
and the holes sunk in the sides of the
open part would have served for an iron
or bronze bar grating such as would
have been used for the cage of a large
hawk or eagle. The worship cf
Egyptian gods continued at Phila until
$50 AID or about 10 years after the
edict of Theodosius, when he attempted
to abolish the old gods of the country.
About that tine this shrine was thrown
down, and afterwards dragged away by
the Copts; Ind, turned on its side, was
made to form the base of the altar in
the succeeding Coptic Church. The
second shrine of the old religion was
thus embedded in the chief feature OF
the Christian Church which followed.
1t is interesting to remember that the
date of Strabo Was about the beginning
of the present era. The shrine is about
10 feet or II feet high, and weighs
some six or seven tons. 1t is an ex-
ceedingly valuable relic, as there is
nothing like it in the British Museum
collections. The color Of the stone
would seem to indicate that it had been
specially brought from seme distance,
as the local granite, and, indeed, all
that rock in the Assouan district, is red.
1t is remarkable, too that the hero.
glyphcs are in relief, and not sunk, as
is usual The Ptolemies were the great
builders in the Phile Islands, especially
the second, fifth and seventh of those
kings; and the temple may, therefore, be
