5uggernaut. Many of the early accoun
OF these self imposed atrocities in In
were not believed at first in civilized CO :
tries, but travellers who have traver d
that part of the orient have corrobora d
even the heartrending descriptions of me
three eminent tourists and scientists, the
brothers Schlagintweit.
Woldemar Friedrich of Leipsic, who h IS
lately made a prolonged tour of India,
during which he has gathered valuable
data and made graphic sketches of the
Nomads on and in the vicinity of the
Clutch steppes, says that. in the harbor city
of Mandri fanaticism reigns supreme The
Brahman religion has here twice as many
representatives as the Mohammedan. The
disciples of one sect tie a gauzy cloth
around mouth and nose to prevent any
insect or particle of dust from entering
their sacred bodies. But most wonderful
of all of Professor Friedrich's experiences
was a saint he met in the neighborhood
who had made a solemn vew never to sit
or lie down for sleep or rest. Rao had re-
fused to grant him boon, therefore there
was something in his life that kept him
in disgrace with the divine powers, and he
determined to propitiate his deity with
his martyrdom of lifelong abstinence
from sitting or lying. In order to be able
to keep his VOW he has been compelled to
construct a kind of hanging mat for his
back and shoulders, in which he hangs
the 1ivelong day reciting his penitent
chants and prayers. Thus he sleeps at
night and in this position he must also eat
and drink as he has grown too weak tc
either walk or stand.

Gambling on Pigeon Races.

Gambling on the fight of carrier pigeons
In and around New York is the newest of
illegal sports carried on by men who pre-
fer to make money by risking it to earning
it by legitimate means. If it is not abso-
1utely undeniable that the birds are being
flown designedly for the purpose of gam
bling. it is certain that there is lively bet
ting on the result. And the astonishing
feature of this gambling game is that 1t
is carried on with the Brooklyn bridge as
starting point.
The men who have introduced this new
form of gambling assert that it will soon
become popular pastime for gentlemen
of sporting proclivities. There Is no ques-
ton but that thousands of dollars have
been won and lost on the birds.
There is a regular book made on the
races. One can wager his money on the
chances of bird running first, second or
third, just as he can win or lose on the
horses. Then again there is an opportu-
nifty to 'place bet'' on time, practice
which is similar to the under or over"
bet on the race track. 1t often happens
that a certain bird is so fast that he has
no competitors. In such cases he flies
against time. If he is record holder, the
bets are made that he either will or will
not break the record.

MISSOURI MINES.

Some Interesting Figures From the
State Inspectors Report.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, Feb. 6.-The
report of the state inspector of lead,
zinc and iron mines, Francis II. La
grave, has just been completed. He
says there has been a falling off in
the production of zinc ore, material
increase in that of lead, while iron
production has ceased altogether.
Lead and zinc ore is produced in
ten counties, and in all 563 shafts are
operated. The number of tons of
lead ore mined during the year
was SO, oo2, valued at ST., $50. 56s. and
of zinc ore So tons, valued at
ST., 337, O1o, making a total for the
two of SO, 287, 47s. The average price
per ton paid for zinc ore was SIS, and
for lead ore $37.4s. There were 5,O65
men employed during the year, of
which 3, 421 were miners. Seventeen
miners were killed during the year,
and twenty-nine non-fatal accidents
occurred. The ST. Joseph lead COM
pany, at Bonnie Terre, is by far the
largest producer of lead in the state,
and probably the largest in the world.

Is What Tom Reed Thinks is
the Matter.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The debate
on the administra ton bill to author
ize the issue of $500 600, 600 gold bonds
for the purpose of retiring the legal
tenders and treasury notes began in
the house yesterday and continue d
for six hours 1t developed widely
divergent views at the. outset. The
silver Democrats and Populists op-
posed it outright. Some of the adj
ministration Democrats, like Hall of
Missouri, favored substitute on the
lines of the Carlisle bill, while Mr..
Reed, the leader of the Republicans,
after a speech charging the present
trouble to the deficiency in the reva-
nue., introduced a bill authorizing the
secretary of the treasury to sell 3 per
cent coin bonds to keep up the gold
reserve, and certificates of indebted
ness, redeemable at the pleasure of
the government, to pay current ex-
penses, until the revenues shall equal
the expenditures. The issue of gold
bonds, he said, would discriminate
against the coin bonds of the past.
Mr.. Patterson, a Democrat from Ten
nessee, on the contrary, favored the
issue of gold bonds. The debate,
under the FIVE minute rule, when the
bill is open for amendment, began
to-day.
Several bills were passed by unani-
nous consent among them one to
pension the widow of the late Com
modore Frank Avery at the rate of
$40 per month, and one for the relief
of Kate Ebert, an Indian woman.

EFFECT OF TARIFF WARS.
Fluctuations in Wheat Trade illustrated
by Comparisons.

Fluctuations IN wheat trade 414uk%TeSSeA
by Comparisons.
WARRINGTON, Feb GA startling evil
dence of the extent to which our trade
with Germany has suffered by the COM
petition of the Argentine republic, and
an illustration of how International trade
may be destroyed by tariff war is con-
tanned in report to the state depart
ment by United States Consul General
Mason, at Frankfort, upon the German
wheat imports for the last three years.
In 1892 the United States shipped to
Germany $500, 49, tons of wheat The
next year this dropped to S,149, 282, and
in 1894, the imports were but
1864, $50 tons. Meanwhile Argentine
seemed to have gained about what we
lost of this trade, for the imports of
wheat from that country into Germany,
amounting in 1892 to but Gel ,697 tons, had
swelIed in 1898 to 1.51S,961 tons, and in
1894 to 3,196, 100 tons.
In 1898 Russia and Germany engaged
in tariff war. In consequences the i'm
ports of Russian wheat into Germany,
which was 2,572, 1891 tons in 1892, dropped
suddenly in 1893 to 616.362 tons. But
as showing the promptness with which
wheat recovered when temporary re-
striction was removed, the report shows
that in 1894, peace having been restored
the Russian wheat imports into Germany
reached 2,354, 459.
