odd FACTS and FANCIES
The Celebrated ROquefOrt Cheese the
Triumph Of Uneducated Art.
ORDINATION or THE LOVING CUP
Piuuger Pardridge,s Great struggle
for small iiucioa-
ton of Lover buried Amve-The
HumaD-Faccd Crab.

1t is supposed that hundreds Of years
ago the South of France was disturbed
by volcanic eruptions, which split up the
ancient granite rocks, causing streams OF
lava to flow from them.
The new surface consisted of basaltic
rocks, which in its turn was fissured by
eruptions and thrown up on to noun
tain range. The whole OF the interior Of
mountain was thus formed into caverns
and caves, which belch forth hot, sui
phurous springs. 1t is here that the cele-
brated Roquefort cheese are made.
The village of Roquefort is situated on
the mountain Larzac, which is about
twenty five miles in length, and nearly
5000 feet high. 1t consists chiefly Of
limestone, covered with sufficient pasture
to feed the 100000 sheep kept for their
milk. The caves being formed by the
displacement OF rocks, consist Of an in
tricate labrinth OF open spaces and pas
sages connected with each other and with
snbierranean outlet. A cool current OF
air, therefore, always OF the same degree
OF humidity and temperature, flows in a
never interrupted stream through the
caves.
There is nothing in the milk or in the
preparation of the cheeses that gives
them that peculiar flavor and delicious
mellowness for which they are so renown-
ed. This is entirely effected by the
method by which they are cured.
When the cheeses are ready for treat
ment they are taken to the caves. and
after being allowed to cool are carried to
the sailing room. They are rubbed with
salt on the face, and then piled on the
top of each other, until the cave is full.
After standing for twenty-four hours or
so the reverse side is sailed, and once
more they are piled up as before. The
cheeses have to be frequently reversed in
ordered in order that the moisture may
be even throughout, and to develop the
fungus which has previously been sown
In the curd. In forty-eight hours the
cheeses become viscous, and are rubbed
with a coarse cloth. In the coarse OF
another two days the fungus will appear
on the outside in the form of a sticky
paste. This is carefully scraped of with
knives, together with thin stratum Of
crust, and set aside for food.
The cheeses are now sorted out, the
most solid ones being placed on the floor.
In eight days time they become covered
with yellowish-red mould, together with
other minute vegetation, which is remov-
ed and given to the pigs. The scraping
is continued until the character of the
mould changes, showing that the curd
has altered its condition, and announcing
the completion of the cure. Then they
are again carefully scraped and wiped,
and wrapped in tinfoil, and are ready for
the market.
Roquefort cheeses have been cnred for
centuries by this process and stand as a
triumph of uneducated art.

Judge johnson. of Denver, accepted
Mrs. M. A. Warren as Juror In the dis

serve as juror in Colorado. The other

dark colors the story of Spanish tyranny
in Cuba and advocating the recognition of
Cuban beligerancy. In the same num-

A wooden LibrarY.

The historical Museum, of Hesse- Cas-
sci, Germany, contains, undoubtedly,
the most remarkable collection of curios-
tiles. 1t is in the form of a wooden Ii
brary, composed OF $40 volumes of folio
and qusrto sizes. The books are made
of the different specimens of trees found
in the famous park Of Wilhelmshoehe.
On the back OF each of these singular
books is pasted large shield of red mo-
rocco. which bears the popular and scien-
tific names of the tree and the family TO
which ii belongs.
Each label is inlaid with some Of the
bark of the tree, the moss and lichen, and
drop or two OF the resin ii the tree pro-
duces it. The upper edge OF the book
shows the tree in its youth, cut from
horizontal section, with the sap in CEN
tire, and the eccentric circles. The same
method prevails with the lower edge,
showing the changes that have taken
place. The interior OF the book, in the
shape Of box, contains in manuscript
the history Of the tree, with numerous
hints as to its treatment, capsules filed
with seeds, buds, roots, leaves and so on.
The inner sides show the diverse trans
formations which take place from bloom
to fruit.

Total Eci,p Sc of the sun.

The great event of the year 1896 is the
total eclipse of the sun, visible only in
the extreme portion of Japan, Amoor
River, Siberia, Nova Zembla, and the
northern part OF Norway, within the Arc
tic circle. 1t is estimated that there will
be many expeditions from various points
in Europe, England, Germany and
France.
On JUNE % party of 200 Americans
will leave Philadelphia to view the eclipse
at Bodo, on the morning of Aug s. 1t
will also be possible to get glimpse OF
the midnight sun, which is seen at the
North Cape above the horizon at mid
night, and a few days later a morning
midnight. The expedition will be ac-
companied by many astronomers and
students of astronomy.

During Napoleon's campaign in Russia
a young officer was very successful in de-
feating with handful of men, large
body of Cossacks who had been skirm-
ishing along the line for some days, do
ing considerable damage. The officer
risked his life in daring deed of bravery
and Napoleon hearing of it, sent for him
and praised him. Sire" said the officer.
IL am happy for your praise, but the
Cross of the Legion of Honor would
make me happier" "But you are very
young" said Napoleon. Sire said
the brave officer, 1--WE do not live long in
your regiments"

The numa n-Eacea cra b.

One OF the most singular-looking crea-
lures that ever walked the earth, saws
DR.. Shiesof, is the famous man-faced crab
of Japan. Its body is hardly an inch in
length, yet the head is fitted with face
which is the perfect counterpart of that
Of Chinese coolie--with eyes, nose and
mouth clearly defined This curious
creature, besides the great likeness it bears
to human being in the face is provided
with two legs, which seem to grow from
the top of its head and heng down over
the sides Of it's face. Besides these legs
two feelers, each about an inch in length,
grow from the chin of the animal, look
ing for all the world like forked beard
These man faced crabs literally swarm in
the waters OF the inland seas OF Japan.

The political cartoon has come to
stay for this campaign at least. 1t is
however to be hoped that the picture
business will either be run into the
ground before another year of nation
al controversy comes around, or if not
that a better set of artists will seize
the situations. II would be dangerous
for nervous woman about to add to
the census to gaze on some Of the
present awful excuses for pictures
that the metropolitan press is sending
out so recklessly.

The British forces in Africa have
very considerably extended the time

there is no indication that the Mata-

Ohm Kruger is of the opinion that
there is no objection to the children
of the republic being taught the Ian
guage of their fathers in the schools
established in the Transvaal. AS a
result there will be schools for in
structiOn in English opened in that
country. This is more liberal than
Democratic Bryan, who voted against
the American language being taught
in the schools in New Mexico and
Arizona. Bryan should go to the
Transvaal and learn craftsmanship.

No one expects that this campaign
is going to be the death Of the regular
Democratic party, but it is likely to
be the death of the radical element of
that party, the Bryan and Altgeld
end of it. Under these circumstances
the Democrats of the Hill stamp coald
do no better service for the party than
to help the Republicans kill off that
end. When that is accomplished it
will be in order to resume the old fight
until one or the other conquers i
peace.

young women, who are boaDding at

eonversing in the sitting room Last
night when the rough looking cOun-

would peer between the Stats of the

Without alarmingcthe other inmates
Of the house, the other women. led by
Miss Bliss, nOislesSly left the room
and, securing a pail of wIntewash
from the wOodshed, crept around the
side of the house aud dashed the con-
tents upon him, shouting: Get out of

AS the newly Stacked lime struck

smartfng, and he nan from tie yard

with her companions hurried down
the road after him.. Turning into a
field the frenzied man ran to. the rfy-

to the bushes on the opposite bank
and was lost to view.
COngratulating themselves that they
had thus effectually disposed of the
prevailing nuisance in the neighbOr-
hood, the young ladies returned to the
house to receive the plaudits Of their
friends. The man is supposed to have
been one of gang of tramps infect

PERRY, o. T., Aug. 12.-Prairie
fires are raging in the Comanche
Indian country southwest Of here.
Thousands OF acres Of grain have
been swept by the flames which
are aided by the dry condition of
vegetation. The fires follow term
OF hot winds which have parched
vegetation and caused cattle to
suffer.
