presented that the little Journal was

avidity in the newspaper Offices of

who lives and works in a little turf
rooted house. The Nord Kap Is, how
ever, regularly printed from news re-
ceived by a ship which touches at
Hammerfest but once in eight DAYS.
Sometimes the latest news arrives on
the day of publication for the former
batch, and then ''the latest does not
get into the Nord Kap till it has been
known fourteen days or more to the
great world to the southward. But the
most curious paper of all is that de-
seribed by G.. A. Sala, as formerly pub

autographed every morning on a
square of white cotton cloth After
having perused it the subscribers en-
ployed it as a pocket handkerchief.
Then they sent it to the local washer
woman, who returned it, a clean
square of white cotton, to the publish

The trainers found little difficulty at

very docile, to step in the car of the
balloon, and in order to prevent aeci-
dents two stout straps connected his
bit with heavy iron rings fastened to
the sides of the car. After his first
aerial trip, however, he strenuously
objected to leave terra frma, and it
required several months of patient and

Paris Women Determine to "Regenerate'

The ladies' of Paris are about to
found female masonic lodge, says
writer in the New York Tribune. De-
feated in their attempts to obtain seats
in the legislature, in the academy, and
in the municipal councils, they have
determined to resort to freemasonry,
their object being, so they announced,
to ''regenerate" this secular institu-
tion, to endow it with more life" AMI
fraternity" and above all to drive all
politicians out of the temple. The
organizers of this project have already
obtained the consent of the govern
ment, and an executive committee of
eight has been appointed, with Nine.
Marie Deraismes as the first grand mis-
tress or venerable of the lodge, which
already includes over one hundred
members 1t is stated that the ladies
are assisted in the work of organiza-
tion by three brothers of theAcraft.
The ladies announce that they do not
intend to follow the examples of the
male lodges with respect to mysteries
and theatrical ceremonies, and intend
to remain content with the trimestrial
and annual passwords. 1t is scarcely
necessary to add that they are devoting
much attention TO the insignia, and
while the apprentices and ordinary
mistress masons are to wear aprons
similar to those Of their brethren, the
dignitaries viii don garments of vari-
Gus colors, representing the sun, the
temple, the instruments Of masonry
and other enblems. The object of the

number Of live perch were secured
and placed in water at the ice manu-
factory, says the New Haven Register,
and the water was put in the process
of capitalization. 1t requires about
sixty hours to freeze a cake of ice, and
during this time the fish were watched
to ascertain the effect Of the intense
cold which surrounded them. They
kept alive and continued to swim in
tho water until their confines were SO
narrowed that they had no space in
which to move. The ice in its freezing
process begins at the outside and
freezes toward the center, so the space
in which the fish had their liberty was
gradually narrowed down until the
fish were encased and the water around
them froze, pinioning them eighty in
its folds.
Each fish when the cake was COM
pleted was rs natural as Life, lis fms
