On the Fly.

| While the numerous summer resorts
adjacent to and accessible from Scran
ton should tend to make this city de-
lightful place to spend the season,
thousands of residents scurry away at
the first puff of hot air and no more is
seen of them until September. The
same is true of New York, which is one
OF the greatest summer resorts in the
world, and yet whose citizens, the first
of June. fairly fall over one another in
mad scramble to get away and escape
as from pestilence. Thousands upon
thousands Of strangers flock into the
great metropolis and in measure fill
the gap caused by the outpoor
New York is hot, woefully hot, in
summer. but as tourist or pleasure
seeking center it is unsurpassed. Its
summer visitors during the day can
choose between the great broad Hud-
son river. with its palatial steamers,
the breezes Of the sound, or ocean trips
to various nearby seaside resorts. The
most popular places reached by water
are West Point and Tarrytown on the
Hudson: Glen Island on the Long
Island sound; Long Branch, Manhat-
tan Bach and Rockaway on the At
lantic coast. These water jaunts are
varied by trips to the races, the only
West Brighton where John Y. McKane
held sway, Westchester county. or
Staten Island. all filed with hundreds
OF interesting localities. Hot! you
say? Not bit Of it. It's too warm
for comfort in the city, but nothing
can stop the ocean, bay and sound
breezes which play over the adjacent
territory.
There are thousand and one ways to
pleasantly pass the evenin go in the city.
When the first theatre roof-garden
was established some years ago, the
idea jumped into such popular favor
that today there are number of them
and all are of the eminently respect
able order Here. high above the sub
dued din OF the avenues and in an al
titude conducive to cool night breezss,
one can lounge at table. talk over
the days doings, sip plain or
pink lemonade. observe metropolitan
life and incidentally be entertained by
the best grade of variety or specially
performers Then there are numerous
theatres supplied with the latest ice
cooling appliances where the light and
acceptable plays are given during the
summer season. Surely, when one
tuin bles into bed at the hotel he may
well exclaim great is New York as a
SIMMER resort"
A new departure has been inaugur-
ated ut the Erie station in Port Jeryis,
by placing plainly marked sign cards
mounted on heavy iron standards op-
posite each passenger train announcing
its destination. The standards upon
which these signs are mounted are the
invention OF Trainmaster Frank Har
denburg. and have two advantages
over the ordinary contrivancas for the
purpose. They are heavy enough to
resist the wind. and having a circular
bottom. can be rolled from ons posi-
lion to another with very little trouble.

Terrible Torture In Marocco

A charge had been laid at Mulai
Omar's door-that of having ordered
the music of the drums and flies to
cease on the occasion of the announce
ment of Mulai Abdul Aziz's succession
to the throne. On the players refusing,
his highness sent a slave, who enforced
silence by splitting up the drums with
dagger. For this act of treason he
was afterward punished by having the
flesh of his hand sliced, the wound fill
ed with salt and the whole hand sewed
up in leather.
1t is common belief that this pun
ishment causes modification to set in,
and that the hand decomposes, but such
is not the case, for by the time the
leather wears off the wound is healed,
the result being that the hand is render
ed useless and remains closed forever
1t is punishment not often in use, but
is sometimes done in cases of murder or
constant theft, as, without in any way
injuring the health of the man, it pre-
vents his committing the crime second
time or for the hundredth time, as the
case may be. It is punishment that
cannot be applied except by the sultan's
orders. -Blackwood's Magazine.

The queen OF Korea is now Al years
of age, being just one year older than
her husband. She is of medium height,
and her form is slender and straight.
Her manner is pleasing, and she is al
ways described as every inch queen. "
She is by no means bad looking. Her
face is long, and every line of her fea-
lures beams with intelligence and vi
vacity. She has high forehead, long,
slender, aristocratic nose, and her mouth
and chin indicate determination and
character Her cheek bones are high,
her ears are small, and her complexion
is the color of rich Jersey cream. Her
eyebrows are after the approved style OF
Korean beauty. the hairs having been
pulled out, SO that they form an arched
thread of black over her eyes. These are
almond in shape, and they fairly snap
with life. They are keen, businesslike
eyes, and they see everything. being in
tellectual rather than soulful. The
queens hair is jet black. 1t is parted in
the middle, is combed perfectly smooth
away from the forehead and brought
down over the ears and rolled in a low
coil, which rests On the nape OF her
neck. Here it is fastened with hairpins
of gold or of silver, each foot long
and as big around as your finger. The
queen has good mouth, full of well
formed, large teeth, and when she
laughs, which is quite often, she shows
the upper ones. --Dsmorest's Magazine,

THE SHOCK OF BIG GUNS.
Unpleasant Sensations Produced by Their
 Reports.

Unpleasant Sensations Produced by Their
 Reports.
 The man who has never been in close proximity to one hundred-ton gun when it is fired can have little conception of the noise and vibration, said retired naval officer to Cincin- nati Enquirer reporter. Partly by courtesy and partly by chance I was on the Thunderer at the siege of Alexandria some twelve or thirteen years ago. Two sets of advice were given me as to how to act when the big guns were fired. Old experienced seamen can stand the shock by raising on their toes the moment the word is given to fire. The majority of people, however, find it necessary, in order to preserve their ear drums from perfora- tion, to lie down, resting most of the weight on their hands and toes. Even with this precaution the sensation is most unpleasant until one gets used to it. Even with the comparatively small guns Tn general use in our navy, the concussion on board ship when a shot is fired is very annoying, but the enormous guns used so generally in. European navies are a source of terrible danger to the crew as well as the enemy, and 1 doubt if they could possibly be used in hand-to-hand en- counter, useful as they are for destroy ing distant ports.

Germany,s Pigeon Service.

Germany has for years possessed the most efficient pigeon service in Europe. At Strasburg there are six hundred birds, at Metz six hundred, at Thorn one thousand, and they are kept by the hundreds at other centers, such as Mainz, Cologne, Kiel and Danzig. The whole frontier is connected by pigeon post with the military headquarters and with towns in the interior. The service is supported by an appropria- tion of about nine thousand dollars a year. The practical use of the pigeon post was fully demonstrated at the siege of Paris in 1870. Since then it has become a recognized part of the military organization of all European countries except Great Britain. Russia has now on her Polish frontier alone three thousand birds, and appropriates yearly ten thousand dollars for pig cons. The French appropriation is twice as large.
