Java, the land OF the famous and much
exaggerated Death valley" has many
wonderful curiosities, the principal one
being the kali mujah," or death plant.
1t grows only OH the sterile SOLE Of the vol
canic regions of Java and the adjoining
islands and is even there reckoned as "A Gu
riosity on account of its extreme scarcity.
1t grows from 2j2 to feet in height, with
long, slender stems, well protected by stout
thorns nearly an inch in length. The
ground leaves are Of delicate, satinlike
smoothness, heart shaped, emerald green on
one side and blood red, streaked and veined
with light buff on the other.
The flowers OF this death dealing beauty
are even more beautiful than the plant IT.
self, being very large and cup shaped and
of a color almost d,sthly in its whiteness.
the name of the plant is from a character
istc of these splendid flowers, which, beau
tiful though they are, continually drip
with deadly poison.
The poison, which is distilled ia the bot
tom of the cup shaped blossom, has the
sickening odor Of chloroform intensified a
dozen fold, 1t being powerful enough to
overcome a full grown man in few sec
onds, even when inhaled in open air. The
perfume, If such IA pungent odor can prop
erly be so called, produces insensibility in
the form of commissions, distOrtng the
face, especially the mouth and eyes, into a
horrid crazy looking grin. Recovery from
the effects OF inhaling this odor is said TO
be very slow.-St. Louis Republic.

trial in Westminster hall The chai on
which he sat is in the boardroom OF the

court, Bradshaw, who remained covered
throughout the trial, is in the Ashmolean
museum at Oxford. The footstool on vi hich

Cutting Up "a Whale.

When fish, AS the whalers will forever
call whale, is taken, the ship gets along
side, and the creature is fixed head and tail
In curious and ancient fashion, so that by
Stacking or tightening the ropes each part
of the vast body can be brought uppermost.
A whole boat may be seen inside the giant
mouth, the men hacking with axes to slice
away the 10 foot screens of bone. while 9th
ers, with sharp spades, upon the back are
cutting off the deep great coat Of fat in
which kindly nature has wrapped up this
most overgrown of her children. In few
hours all is slowed away in the tanks, and
red islet, with white projecting bones,
lies alongside and sinks like stone when
the ropes are loosed.
Some years ago IA man, still lingering on
the back, had the misfortune to have his
foot caught between the creatures ribs at
the instant when the tackles were undone.
Some cons hence those two skeletons, the
one hanging by the foot from the other,
may grace the museum Of "a subtropical
Greenland or astonish the students Of the
Spitzbergen Institute of Anatomy.---A. Co
