THE POISONOUS AMANITA.
How to Discriminate Between the
Deadly Fungus and the Mushroom.

How to Discriminate Between the
Deadly Fungus and the Mushroom.
Harpers Bazaar.
OF the Agaricini family there is one sub
division that contains many toadstools
that are deadly poisonous. and 1T is well
to be made acquainted with these in the
very beginning. This subdivision is known
as the amanita. 1t is the most beautiful.
the most insidious, and the most deadly of
all toadstools, and should be Stunned with
horror. The amanita always have a volva
or sheath around the stem at or in the sur
face of the ground: when this or remnants
of it are found upon any toadstool 1t should
be discarded, unless the finder is sure of
the ability TO discriminate between the edi-
BILE and nonedible amanita- 1t is we'll to
say just here that there are not a great
many men in the United States with this
as generally pursued with us as with some
of the older peoples of Europe. In my ex-
cursion with, Captain McIlvaine we came
upon several beautiful specimens Of the
deadly amanta, and l have photographed
two. These are the Amanitae bulbosi. The
large one is a full-grown fungus, showing
part of the veil or ring and part of the
volva. The smaller is only partly grown.

Inc great danger from dIndniLAe Is cue
to the fact that to an uniformed unob-
servant person they resemble the common
mushroom. A very little knowledge would
enable any intelligent person not handi-
capped with an undue amount of coChSUro
conceit to discriminate beteen the air3lnita
and the common mushroom. The conlrnt n

mushroom always grows in the open; en-

has never found the amanita il open fields

take note of the characteristics of the
amanta at once. Other toad3toolS sclre-
times contain minor poisong; the amdnita

by. She is straight as an arrow. Her form
is rounded but not fat Her face has but
few wrinkles, and her hair, as yet, shows
no signs of grey. AS she talks her eyes
brighten and the magnetism for which she
was so noted again comes to the surface.
She must be now nearly fifty, but she does
not look more than forty, and in my con-

United States
From the wide veranda on which we sat
we could see the golden dome of the new
library, view the many-columned Capitol,
with its flags flying over the houses of Con-
gress. and off in the distance fill our eyes
with the snowy spire of the Washington
monument, which pierced the blue sky
about three miles away. We could see
the Potomac, and look down, as IL We're
upon the great red brick city, packed with
it's wealth and its misery, its vices and it's
virtues, its shoddy and its shams. About
our feet stretched acres of velvety lawn
on which Jersey cattle, tied by long ropes
here and there, sleepily browsed. Above us

were those of peace casting their shadow
upon the great city of discord below. The
famous woman who sat beside me seemed
also at peace. She has tested to the full

happy here on the edge of 1T, though not

hill overlooking the basin in which WASH

thirty-six acres, and it includes the old
brick mansion in which Salmon p Chase
lived while he was Chief Justice of the
United States This is a great two-story
brick containing many large rooms and
covered by ridge roof. out of which the
little windows Of the attic poke their heads
and gaze at the magnificent views about
them. A wide hall runs through the center
Of the house. Rare old furniture, which
Mrs. Chase picked up in Europe, fills many
OF the rooms. and the library where the
Chief Justice was wont, as his daughter
tells me, TO translate Latin poetry into
English verse for amusement, is still in
tact.

MISS NANCY BAILEY, INDEXER.
Something About the Young English
woman Who IndeXed Hansard.
New York Sun.

New York Sun.
Miss Nancy Bailey is a pretty young En-
glsh woman about whom many things
might be said. For example. Miss Bailey is
an indexer; when one takes into account
the fact that there are not more than half
a dozen others in all Great Britain, and
that Miss Nancy leads them all, Ii will be
seen that this is saying a good deal Nancy
was Shropshire girl in her early youth,
and one r-to-be-forgotten day she set
out for London, determined to do some
thing" She didn't have indexing in mind
then She yearned to be literary, and, as
she was very much interested in artistic
subjects, sent off sundry articles in that
line TO the magazines. These were finally
printed, but in the meantime great financial
Stringency overlook the young author. In
this crisis she compiled an index or The
Years Art" Then she did other potboilers;
condensed two-volume novels into one vol
aid College, and did many things which de-
veloped her talent for winnowing the wheat
from the chaff.
Then great thing happened. The editor
of Hansard asked her to index the Parlia-
mentary debates. To realize the impor-
lance of this request one must read what
Mr.. Stead wrote to Miss Bailey.
For intrinsic Importance" wrote the
great journalist, 81 would prefer to index
Hansard rather than have a seat in the

Henry Clay made a strong impression
upon me. Ny father was a tall mar but
Clay was much taller. He lowered above

me, and j liked him. L remember Daniel
Webster, too. He seemed TO me at that
time TO be my ideal OF how a statesman
ought to look. He was very sober and i'm
pressive in his manner. He seldom laughed,
but he was very kind. and he used TO send

to compliment and show that he re-
