SWORDS AND RAYONETS.
Present Forms of Weapons Only Modifica-
tions of Those Used by Ahcients.


The saber used by the United States
cavalry is copied from the cimeter of
the Saracens, which was the most effec-
tive sword for cutting purposes ever
devised. 1t will be remembered how,
according to the story told in Sir Wall
ter Scotts "Talisman," with such a
weapon the pagan Saladin chopped
soft cushion in two at one blow, to the
amazement of Richard Ceur de Lion.
With a straight sword one can make a
hack or thrust, but to slice an adver.
sary one must saw with it. The cine
ter, being curved and wide and heavy
toward the end, slices by the
mere fact of striking. The kind
of bayonets chiefly used by the
federal troops during the war of
the rebellion was. the old triangu-
lar pattern. Sword bayonets were
also employed on guns imported from
Europe. During the last ten years the
regulation bayonet has been of the
''ramrod" type-a hideous instrument,
cylindrical and of the thickness of
ramrod, with sharp screw point, like
that of carpenters bit. 1t is now to
be replaced with the knife bayonet,.
which somewhat resemb bles butchers
knife, is twelve inches long, with one
edge. 1t is quite as effective and much
lighter than the sword bayonet. The
latter is being dispensed with by most
of the European nations in favor of the
knife bayonet The bayonet was a
French invention. In the early days
of firearms soldiers used to carry both
guns and pixies, but the notion of at
taching the pike to the gun in such a
manner that both could be used at the
same time was the beginning of the
idea CT the bayonet.-Troy Times

TANDEM EELS.
A Fisherman's Great Catch In Pennsyl.
yania Stream.

A Fisherman's Great Catch In a Pennsyl
yania Stream.
The following story of 'remarka-
BILE haul of tandem cells" is told with
all gravity by that usually veracious
newspaper, the Reading PA Herald:
One Cosmos Eckensode was fishing in
the Tulpehocken when migrating
band of these eels chanced to pass by.
The alleged popularity of this variety
is that when they are making for their
winter or summer quarters they move
like the aborigines in single file, at a
distance of exactly six inches apart.
When any eel in the procession sees
that his immediate predecessor is
lengthening Sthe space, it at once
darts forward, catches the others tail
in his mouth and jerks it into its legiti-
mate position. When migrating these
eels seldom stop to feed, but as Cosmos
bait dropped quickly in front OF
one of them it took it in, was hooked
and Cosmos gave his pole jerk. The
following eel, true to the tandem in
stinct, seized it's tail and was drawn
rapidly away from eel number three,
which also obeyed it's instinct, and so
with all the others. Cosmos very soon
found that he had caught rope Of
cells, and, dropping his pole, he hauled
it in hand-over-hand, until the ground
all around him was a writhing mass,
and he, completely exhausted, was
obliged to cut the rope. Then he ran
to the nearest farmhouse for assistance
and from it word was sent to the
neighbors, who fastened to the scene
with their wagons. The total weight
of the ''tandems" was eight hundred
and fifty pounds. OF this big catch
fifty dollars worth were sold in Read
ing and the balance were distributed
among the township farmers

DlSlNFECTlON AFTER DISEASE.
Formalin Said by an English Authority to
BE the Best Disin!ectant.

FormaIin Said by an English Authority to
BE the Best Disin:ectant.
The disinfection of houses after the
occurrence of infectious disease, says
the London Lancet, is often a matter
of great trouble and inconvenience, as
we'll as a serious expense, and anything
which tends to lessen these deserves our
consideration. Under present condi-
tions the room itself has to be fumi-
gated with sulphurous acid vapor, the
floors and woodwork have to be washed
with some disinfecting solution, the
walls have to be washed down and re,
papered, and the bedding has to be
sent to some special disinfector or
chemical purifier. By the use, how
ever, of formalin (which is really a
forty per cent. solution of fformaldehyde
in water) in the form both of vapor
and spray, the bedding, furniture and
walls can be thoroughly disinfected and
rendered perfectly innocuous. The
colors of papers, silks, satins, plushes,
etc, are quite unaffected both by the
vapor and spray, and this adds very
materially to its value, while the effect
is said to be stronger than that of car
bolic acid, sulphurous acid, chlorine or
bromine. For spraying it may be used
in the proportion of two, four or eight
drains to the gallon of water. For the
fumigation of mattresses little of the
pure formalin should be placed, say on
a vaporizer under the bed, and to pre-
vent too great diffusion of the vapor
the lower part of the bed e., the
legs, should be thoroughly covered in
with paper. When one side is thor
oughy done the mattress should be
turned and the fumigation repeated.
Those who have tried this method
have been satisfied with the results.

Italian Etiquette.

If the woman who visits Rome wishes
to follow traditions and "do as the
Romans do," she will be careful never
to take an escorts arm in Catholic
church. Indeed, the guides instruct
those who stroll innocently arm in arm
about st. Peters looking at the
pictures, freseoes and altars of that
wonderful cathedral, that they are
committing an improperly. Italians
are very particular about the etiquette
of kissing the hand. A man kisses the
right hand of his mother, aunt or
elderly friend, and the left hand of his
sweetheart. 1t is not permitted him
to kiss the palm of the hand except in
great and affectionate intimacy; it is
regarded as token that he is very
much in love. Upon arriving at a
formal dinner a gentleman takes the
hand of his hostess and bends low over
it as if about to kiss it, but does not d.,
SO. After-dinner etiquette demands
that he take her hand again and kiss

The Gallery Gods Applause.

Lawrence Barrett once told me of q
conversation he had with Edwin
Booth. The latter had been congratu-
lated npon an ovation given him by q
crowded house on the opening night
of an engagement. "The sweetest
music to my ears" said the great
tragedian, lis the shouting of the
boys in the gallery. l know they are
not applauding because l have a
reputation or because they wish to
make Il display. They simply give
vent to their natural enthusiasm.
When they shout ! know that I am
giving a good performance. AS for
the parquette, it may clap its hands
out of politeness. A dramatic critic
who has certain notions as to how a
line should be read will applaud if I
read it his way, otherwise he will re-
main quiet. I can never analyze the
applause of the front rows, but the
gallery is sincere in it's likes or dis
likes. Chicago Record,

HOW TOM LOST HIS FLOWERS.
And How One Girl Managed to Get Even

"I've gotten even with Effie at lastr'
cried the girl with the black and white
hat.
'T'm glad to hear it," responded the
girl with the blue pelisse; ''it's the
next thing to getting even with her
myself"
"Yes; I've owed her one ever since
the time she told Ned there was pow
der on his shoulder after he had been
dancing with me-"
''They put so much powder in our
gloves nowadays that it will sift
through sometimes" put in the girl
with the blue pelisse.
Eyes, indeed; how sensible you are
but to return to Effie--"
sit isn't any easy matter to get even
with her, is it?"
EASY enough now. She's really in
love with Tom, 60 she can't manage
him as well as she does the other men,"
"Humph! But how did you manage
it?"
20, it happened most unexpectedly.
I dropped in with Sue and Madge to
get cup of tea at her house yester-
day. | saw that size was bit agitated,
and just as l was leaving Tom was an
nounced. Effie was pouring Madge an
other cup in the back parlor, and I
started forward to greet Tom before
she could get there, and dropped my
muff in my haste"
"Was Tom wearing large chrysan-
| themum as usual?"
Larger. He was carrying a lovely
bunch of them, too. ALLOW me, Miss
Sara he said. / reached for the flow
ers like a flash. Thanks, awfully,' I
cried; how lovely of you to bring them

you didn't! Why they were for
"Effie, of course, but he couldn't say
word. You should have seen his face,
though, when he handed me my muff. -
30, and think of Effie'srage at seeing
him, as she thought, present you with
the flowers. Her face must have bee
study"
"Of course; / couldn't see it., but wher
l heard the crash of one of her cher
ished teacups l knew that 1 wal
avenged. I'll have to watch her closely
after this, though" she added, with
sigh, "for she'll get even with me some
