SWORDS AND BAYONETS.

Present Forms OF Weapons Only Moaifica-
tiOns of Those Used by Ancients.
The saber used by the United States
cavalry is copied from the cineter 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 Wal
ter SCOTS Craftsman" with such
weapon the pagan Saladin chopped .
soft cushion in two at one blow, to the
amazement Of Richard CGur de Lion.
With straight sword one can make .
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 a
ramrod, with sharp screw point, like
that OF a carpenters bit. 1t is now to
be replaced with the knife bayonet,
which somewhat resembles 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 tho
knife havOnef The havOnef 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
manner that both could be used at the
same time was the beginning of the
idea of the bayonet-Troy Times.

no correct appreciation of the value Of
money. Their whims and caprices,
therefore. are sometimes quite ira
tional and extremely expensive. Their
husbands. though, bear with them.
The favorite wife of the shah of Per-
STA (the one he took with him on his
first European trip in 1879 after her
return home once saw the wife of the
Russian ambassador play the piano.
So she insisted on having one. If you
know anything of the roads in Persia
and of the absence of railroads and
navigable rivers you will appreciate
the difficulty of bringing big concert
piano from Paris to Teheran. When
it arrived, some three months later. it
was so completely damaged as to be
fit only for kindling wood. Besides,
there was not single piano teacher
in Persia and Yulda Khanum, the IA
vOrite wife, knew absolutely nothing
about manipulating a piano anyway.
But a second piano was ordered at
once. That fell down a precipice
while being transported over the
Kharsan pass on the way to the Per.
sian capital, and a third one was or.
dered. That at last arrived in pretty
sound condition. But by that time
Yulda Khanum didn't care for a piano,
and thus it was relegated to the mu.
scum of the shah, where it still is.
These three pianos had cost his
majesty some S15O.O0O. On another &C.
casion the same lady noticed a new
Paris gown on the wife of the Austrian
ambassador. and she insisted on hav-
ing one exactly like it. When it came
she put it Oh and off during an entire
day, just like child with new toy,
and then threw it away.
These. however, are extravagancies
such as are inseparable from pampered
females the world over. Under nor
NAL conditions the oriental woman is
very amiable, nice kind of person.
She is very fond OF her children and
nearly always goOd-tempered, jolly and
full of life and fun. She is strong and
healthy, has the digestion of an os-
trich, and likes a drive above all
things. IN the large cities where there
has been more or less contact with the
occident and loOscning of the old
customs in consequence of that, the
oriental woman is not so good nor so
amiable as in the interior. Cities
which bear i very bad reputation in
that respect among Moslems all over
the east are Constantinople, Cairo,
Alexandria, Smyrna and Tihis. The
intrigues which the wives and favor

touches In the selamiik, where they
smoke few nargilehs to Obtuse their
sense of wrong.
The oriental is, generally speaking,
very frugal in his personal habits, and
that allows him to spend the moro
money on his harem, 1. e., ON his
wives, children and servants. His
own part of his house-in Turkey
called selamlik and in Persia called
biroun-is fitted up with severe SIM
plicity. But he begrudges no expense
to his women. Relatively speaking,
too. the dry goods bills and the jewel.
ers' bills and the sums expended on
sweets are much larger than they are
for the American husband.
Even the shah of Persia. miserly as
ne is in his habits, finds no fault with
the enormous waste of his good gold
that is going on in his anderouu or
harem. Since the intellect of the
oriental women lies fallow and has
never been trained their education
consisting merely in acquiring &C
complishments such as emoroidering.

which tax their brain power. they are

70 would ros do to present u tho
people this pessimistic picture concern
Ing the Municipalities Of the members
Of tho greatest deliberative body on
earth without presenting another side
Of the picture, which is worthy Of COM
men6stion. Some Of the warmest
friendships ever made among men are
formed on the floor Of the senate by
tho members of that body. 1t seldom
occurs that the two senators from any
one state entertain an exceptional de-
gree Of personal admiration for each
other; but they meet and pair with tho
strongest and most ikable individual
tiles of the solons from the sisterhood
of states outside Of the boundaries of
their own commonwealth. One of the
exceptions to this rule, and It is a not
able exception, Is the warm personal
friendship existing between the senior
senator from Colorado, Mr.. Teller. and
tie junior senator from the same state,
Mr.. Wolcott. Mr.. Teller Is now nearly
sixty-four years Of age, and has been
in public life quarter of q century,
filing many positions with honor and
distinction. He Is regarded as one Of
the ablest men on either side of tho
senate. His colleague, Senator VOL
colt, is in his forty-sixth year, a large,
powerful man, physically, an active.
cultured intellectualist, and an impress
sive and magnetic orator. He looks

It is quite an interesting thing to
learn that some of our best known
proverbs and notices were originally
used in connection with sun dials. Be-
fore the days of watches and clocks,
when dials and sun marks were among
the rude means of reckoningtime,it was
prevailing custom to inscribe them.
Among the maxims traceable to this
source arc: snake hay while the sun
Shines" 1.-The longest day must end"
and, IAN things do wax and wane."
Sum dials spoke the truth, Is may be
inferred from historic one which
was placed on St. Paul's cross, in Lon
don. and which proclaimed: II number
none but sunny hours" This no ono
will doubt who has had occasion to
consult dial on an overcast day. A
famous dial in Sussex. England. bore
four famous notices applicable to the
fight Of time and the brevity Of life.
They were as follows: AFTER darkness,
light" "Alasl how swift" 81 warn
whilst move" and so passes Nfe."
Another old sun dial spoke petulantly
about the Same subject in tho words:
''SixTah, begone about your bussness."
