An Old Idol,

A letter in the Philadelphia Times
describes a curious old idol recently
discovered on the banks of the Sabine
River in Texas. The image was nearly
four feet high and was of three
headed man, with the scales of tur-
tie covering the entire body. The
idol is hollow and contained the skele-
ton of a young child placed in it in an
upright position, the head fitting into
that of the god. Whether the child
was thus sacrificed to the god or the
image merely used as repository of
the dead body cannot be decided. The
carving on the idol shows degree of
skill uncommon among the Indians as
existing now or as found here by the
early settlers, and as the banks of this
vicinity were evidently erected by a
people antedating these, it is probable
that the image was of their religion
also. 1t is of stone, and is composed
of four or five pieces neatly cemented
! together with substance not recog-
niZed by any mason who has seen it.
The union of the several stones en-
| plOyed in it is SO cunningly done that
only close examination reveals it at
all. The eyes are of agate, and cut
with the skill of a finished lapidary;
and, by some contrivance, are 30 ar
ranged as to move in the head from
side to side and to close by the shut
ting down of lids of silver. The
panther claws are also of silver, and
the feet are of obsidian highly pol
ished. One of the three heads wears
benign expression, while another
grins maliciously, and the third
frowns heavily and shows clenched
teeth of obsidian; doubtlessly the
three countenances showing the vari-
GUS attributes of the god represented.

teract the tendency TO float upward
and enable the fish TO regain it's
proper sphere of life at the bottom
but beyond that limit the muscles are
not strong enough to drive the body
downward, and the fish, becoming
more and more distended as it goes,
is gradually killed on its long and in
voluntary journey to the surface of
the sea. The deep-sea fish, then, are
exposed TO danger that no other ami
mails in this world are subject to-
namely, that of tumbling upward.
That such accidents do occasionally
occur is evidenced by the fact that
some fish, which are now known to be
true deep-sea forms, were discovered
dead and floating on the surface ofthe
ocean long before our modern investi-
cations were commenced. Popular

THE Reading Times calls attention to the
fac. that the will OF the great brewer, Henry
Clausen, of New York, just filed, has a
pathetic censure OF dissipated son, to
whom he leaves the interest OF SIC, 900, with
q similar bequest to his sons wife. The
clause in the will relating to the son, after
referring to the testator's repeated failures
to reclaim him from habits of dissipation,
says 'I deem it wise to limit my provision
for him and his family to the bequests here
in made for him and his wife, to the end that
they may be secured from absolute want,
bu. have been convinced OF the futility OF
making any other or further provision fot
him by his persistent refusal to adopt such
methods OF living as wodld indicate any
ability for the useful application OF any
greater income than l have herein pro-
Yided."
It is pathetic, and yet it might be re-
marked, which is even more pathetic, that
but for the similar dissipation and ruin OF
thousands OF sons of other parents, Brewer
Clausen would possibly not have had the
immense fortune TO Distribute OF which the
handsome "provlsion" Of the interest OF
s q, 900 to his son and wife, is considered
such "limited" bequest.
The dead brewers foresight in trying to
-sep his dissipate1 son from absolute
want" is commendable for the fatherly
feeling and interest which it shows, but it
trpleasantly calls attention to the other side
o the picture.
Brewer Clausen grew fat and lourished
OF dissipated sons, and the woe of broken
hearted parents and neither in commercial
Ct any other sense did he give an equivalent

Creatures That Tumble Upward.

1t is only reasonable TO suppose
that the ability to sustain this enor-
nous pressure can only be acquired
by animals after generations of grad
ual migrations from shallow waters.
Those forms that are brought up by
the dredge from the depths of the
ocean are usually killed and distorted
by the enormous and rapid diminu-
tion of pressure in their journey to
the surface, and it is extremely prob
able that shallow water forms would
be similarly killed and crushed out of
shape were they suddenly plunged
into very deep water. The fish that
live at these enormous depths are, in
consequence of the enormous pres
sure, liable to curious form of acci-
dent. II, in chasing their prey or for
any other reason, they rise to a con-
siderable distance above the floor of
the ocean, the gases of their swim
ming bladder become considerably ex-
panded and their specific gravity very
greatly reduced. Up to certain limit
the muscles of their bodies can coun-
