CITY AND DISTRICT.
Behind the Times.

Washington is far behind other cities in
the way of handling prisoners, so the po-
Ncemen who have visited other cities think.
There is not even house of detention
here, and for person arrested, no matter
how respec table, police cell behind the
bars awaits him, unless bail can be given.
The absence of an inebriate asylum is also
noticeable, and padded cells for insane pris-
onerS are badly wanted.

A pro- cession, consisting of surpliced choirs ard clergy, with cross and banners, left St. Pcter's church, and after it had made a aetour of the fishing quarter of the town chanting the litany position was taken up overlooking the sea. The vicar of the parish gave an appropriate address, and prayers were offered ask ing a Divine blessing on the fsherman's s calling.

QUAKER OF THE ORIENT.
The Hercuiean Turkish Porter Whose

The Hercuiean Turkish Porter Whose
 Place Of Business Is on the Street.
 The Turkish porter is one of the most interesting objects seen in @ tour of the orient. Of Herculean strength and power of endurance, he is usually prompt and obliging, also honest so far as in him lies. He cannot speak the truth, and would not respect himself if he could, for that is virtue of the Frank.
 His place of business, says the Chica- go Times-Herald, is on the streets of his native town, where he can Ee found at all hours of the day, clad in loose soiled jacket, usually gray. with gray gaiters, Turkish shoes CT sandals, the inevitable fcz and a necherchief that makes him look as if he were straGG- ling.
 All the burden of conveying large or small articles falls upon him ard he will for gratu;ty carry Q piano as cas- fly as trunk. He is the nest con- tented of the working fraternity one meets abroad, whether he is found in the streets of Ccnstantinor.e CT in those of Stamboul. and the tourists 1oake much of him because he is interest 'ng. his occasional smoke under the shade of a mulberry tree, or his lazy sips of sherbet, being treats that renew his strt/iCth for tha hard v,ccf- lr which he rust live-if he is not alle to sell

overcoats in pawn t'-lr.I}o t.e summer. Of course, if man wartt:; to pawn any thing, there is nothing that lie should be more likely to soak during the summer months than his unnecessary overcoat. At the same time many of the overcoats are left with us merely that they may be protected against the moths, who thrive during the sum- mer, and to prevent them from accumu- lating dust as they would while lying in closets. A man can pawn his over- coat for two dollars, and have it with us until he needs it in the fall, and it costs him but 50 cents.
 "Of course it is a good deal of trouble for us, but we are able to make it pay us well, and the temptation to a man who is improvident is to borrow more than nominal sum on his coat, and, of course, he has to pay more in- terest.
 GA great many dress suits are also pawned each summer to preserve them until needed in October. They arc wor1l very little in the summer, and the same reason that leads to the pawning of over coats operates in their case"

THE ARk-BORN MAN.
Which of Noah's Descendants First Saw
 the Light in the Ark?

the Light in the Ark?
 Hundreds of ancient gleaners of mis- cellaneous curios, legends, myths and traditions give us to understand that Cush was born on the ark, says the St. Louis Republic. Others claim that there was a child born on the sacred vessel, but that it was sacrificed to one of the wild beasts, Noah declaring that no person should leave the ark who had not gone on board in the regulation manner. The weight of the evidence as it is given by the Talmudic writers is to the effect that Cush is the person referred to by the old-time mystery gleaners when they speak of the lark born" man. The sacred books, as well as the scores of Biblical encyclopedias, hand books of ancient history, etc., are silent on the subject. In reprint of one of the rare old Saxon Chronicles" is found clew to the mystery, and an other slight hint in an explanatory note in EerEert's ''Nimrod." In the "Saxcn Chronicles" the following occurs: ''Bedwig was the son or Shem, who was the son of Noah, and he, Bedwig, was born on the ark" Herbert's note in "Nimrod," colume ii, page 37, says SKybele is the ark, and, as Cush was be- gotten in the ark, his posterity were, in a peculiar sense, descended from that ship" Although Herbert made no di- rect references to the fact of Cush be- ing actually born in the ark, he speaks of him in several places as ''Cush, the ark-born." The Talmudic writers dis credit the Bedwig story, but declare that Cush was born on the day that Gods covenant (the rainbow) first appeared.

PONY FOR FORTY CENTS.
New swindle Practiced Upon the Gullible
 New Yorker.

New swindle Practiced Upon the Gullible
 New Yorker.
 Here is brand-new swindle. The man out-of-the-way part of the world had some money, says the New York Re corder. He rented a house in one of the oldest parts of New York. It is a quarter in which swell Knickerbockers lived, and some of their descendants live there to this day. He made himself familiar figure in liquor store in the neighborhood, where he sampled va rious brands and vintages and proved himself connoisseur.
 One day he told the proprietor that he had taken down brick wall in the rear of the cellar of his house, intend ing to replace it with stone, as it had grown moldy. Behind it he found three casks of remarkable brandy that had been lying recondite for many years. undoubtedly the property of some long dead and forgotten householder, who knew a good thing when he saw it, and was saving it.
 The saloon man bought it at $16 d gallon, having previously tasted an al- legged sample that for bouquet has never been surpassed upon this conti- nent or any other. The goods were de- livered and the tenant disappeared with two months rent in arrears. It was really good brandy worth about six dol lars gallon, at which price it had been bought from Broadway street wine merchant.
 However, the wineroom man did not lose anything. His customers are drinking brandy Cat 40 cents "pony'') which they are assured has lain in a New York cellar for 100 years.

A QUEER BELIEF.
The Place of ToMn ent to Which Wicked
 Buddhists Are Consigned.

-SThe place of torment to which all wicked Buddhists are to be assigned on the day of final reckoning is a terrible place of punishment. The Buddhist;c he'll is a sort of apartment house, d;- vided into eight "easy stages In the first the poor victim is compelled to walk for untold ages in his bare feet over hills thickly set with red-hot needles, points upward. In the second stage the skin is carefully filed or rasped from the body and irritating mixtures are applied. In the third stage the nails, hair and eyes are plucked out and the denuded body sawed and planed into all sorts of far tastic shapes.
 The fourth stage is that of sorrow full lamentations" In the fifth the left side of the body and the denuded head are carefully roaster Yoma. the Bud dhist Satan, experimenting the work. In the sixth stage the anms are torn from the body and thrown into an inn ,mense vat among the eyes, nails and hair previously removed. Then in plain hearing of the sore-footed, blind, maimed, roasted and bleeding victim the whole horrid mass is pounded into jelly. In the seventh stage the other side of the victim and his feet are roast ed brown and then comes the eighth and last stage, in which the candidate is thrown into the bottomless pit of perdition
