What we miss in pavements---fo the
sidewalks are usually gravel--we find
balanced by the general excellence of
the mncadamized roadways, with their
borders of fine shade trees, and by the
prevailing rectangular arrangement of
the streets, which, but for the consec-
utive numbering of houses without re-
gard to interblock distinction, leaves
nothing to be desired in ease OF search.

Lincoln and the Peach.

A young lady sends to the Tribune
little snecdote of Abraham Lincoln.
She says that good many years ago,
when her father was a small boy, her
grandfather brought Abraham Lincoln
home one night to supper. He was
then a poor young man practicing law
in Woodford County, Illinois.
''It was cold, stormy night, and
grandma hurried around getting sup
per. To have something nice she
opened jar of preserved peaches.
Lincoln spent long time over his
peach, and finally left it on the plate.
"Grandma noticed this, and as soon
as he and grandpa had gone into an
other room she went to look at the
dish. Then she saw that instead of a
peach she had given the visitor the lit.
tie muslin sack which contained the
peach kernels and the spice. She
hastened into the other room and be-
gan an apology, but Mr.. Lincoln said !:

Count Badenyi's nobility, in spite

delphia is one Of the few real orang-
outangs which have been brought to
this country. and in his way he is a
wonder. Those who have seen him,
says the Inquirer, in presenting his
picture, will recognize in the cut the
peculiar attitude in which he places
himself when showing off for the bene-
fit of visitors and when he swings his
body sideways before the front Of his
cage.
The orang-outapg, or manlike ape,
has close resemblance to that of a
man in the general form of the bones,
muscles, nerves and brain. They are
the third in size of the anthropoid
species of apes, and come from the
low, marshy forest tracts of Borneo
and northern parts of Sumatra.
Their muscular strength is very
great, and u powerful man would be
roughly handled in an encounter. The
native name of orang.outang means
head man, or chief of the woods.
This animal, Chief Utan, appears to
be about six to eight years old, and Is
now three -fourths grown. II he should
live to reach his full size he will be
twice his present age. He was cap
tured four years ago in Borneo.

Place the harp in a current of air, as

tons of diamonds, selling for more

to the worlds wealth---an amount
more than twice as great as the value
