A BOY who Rides "A Turtle.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.


Among the visitors to Philadelphia yes
terday was John Raines Of New York, who
sells clothing In the south John usually
has a good story TO tell and the last trip
furnished him his best when IN Tampa,
Fla" he said, n had to take a buggy ride
to visit some country customers, and go
ing along the road I overlook the most
singular mode of locomotion / ever saw
A half-gTown boy Was riding a huge sea
turtle. 1t is not uncommon in Florida for
the big green turtles to grow to an i'm
mense size, and this one would probably
measure five feet across the back. He had
wandered too far on the beach and, his
passage to the ocean intercepted with a
rail, the boy succeeded in throwing him
on his back, and then IT was easy to get
him In a wagon and take him home. The
captor contrived a harness which fasten-
ed tightly around the neck of the reptile
A turtle will travel in the direction his
head is pointed and the matter of guild
ing him was, therefore, far from difficult.
The boy sat on the turtle, with his feet
folded under him, tailor fashion, and
while a horse or bicycle might make bet
ter time, neither would be more comforta-
BILE. These turtles are very strong and a
considerable load could be packed on his
back and he would draw it. If he showed
a disposition to stop or balk, prod in the
fieshy part Of his legs with pointed stick
the boy carried with him for that purpose
never failed to start him up.

A Bis CargO OF RabbIts.
From the Westminster Gazette.


Rabbits are cheap to-day" ought to
be a legend outside some London shops
a few days hence. For there Is rapidly
approaching our shores a steamer which
is bringing to the home markets no fewer
than 900 rabbits, the largest consign-
ment of its kind ever dispatched from
Victoria. It has been shipped by the
agricultural department of the colony, and
the minister of agriculture personally in
spected the shipment and satisfied him
self, il is said, that none but sound rab-
bits were placed in the refrigerating
chambers. Some recent consignments of
Australian rabbits did not stand the voy-
age as well as was expected, and 1t will
be interesting to see whether this CO.
Iossal colonial contribution to our COM
missariat department is delivered in an
eatable condition.

THE KAIsER's MUsTACHE.
He no Longer Dresses 1t in Fierce
Military Style.
From the Hartford Times.

From the Hartford Times.
The good people of Germany are ex-
ercising their minds not little over the
emperors mustache. For some years
William wore his mustache with fe-
rocious upper curl that gave him very
militant aspect, especially when the i'm
perial brow was surmounted by the shake,
helmet, or busby belonging to one of the
innumerable military uniforms which his
majesty Is entitled TO wear
A great change has taken place during
the last few months. The imperial mus
tache now stands out at right angles
with the imperial countenance, just as an
ordinary civilians might. This more
pacific habit of Williams whiskers is re-
garded by some as a happy augury for the
peace of Europe.
Others. who remember the lightning
changes of form that have characterized
the kaiser's mustache-it being worn now
long, now short, now brushed fercely
upwards, now curling d9wnwards with
beautifully waxed ends-regard it as
merely another symptom of his imperial
royal majesty's consuming personal van
ity
Only for short time-three months, to
be accurate-has William ever worn a
beard. The effect was not pleasing.

OF the sulphuric regions of the damned

course, II will not be fantastic magma
ton, and the spectators will be left as
completely in the dark as heretofore
relative TO the actual scenic attributes
and life and society in the regions of
perpetual torment.
Still the panorama is possessed Of no
mean artistic merit, and so thoroughly
IMPRESSED are the painters with the ex-
cellence Of their internal achievements
that they have decided to commission
three of their number to repair to Rome

AERONAUTs' ADVENTURE.
In a Thunderstorm Thousands of
Feet Above the Earth.
London Gable in New York Sun.

London Cable in New York Sun.
The disasters to aeronauts inflicted by
q severe thunderstorm in Paris last Sun
day show how extensive the study and
practice of aeronautics have become in
France. No fewer than four large bal
looms were caught by the storm near
Paris and wrecked. Three of the dozen
We're killed. The experience of a party
OF four in the balloon Jupiter was a re-
markable one. NJ. Boiteux, a Well-known
aeronaut who was in charge, thus de-
scribes it.
When we had risen to the hight of 600

storm. Not only were we rising rapidly,

great icicles, which added considerably

opened the air valve, and the balloon
cropped downward almost like a stone,
l1s velocity increasing as we sank. Round
ABOUT us was vast dreary void-nothing
whatever visible. I instructed Legrand to

our view and hindered us from choos-

Iof ten kilometers we were dragged along

VICTORIA MAKES FEW Mistakes
The Venerable Queen Is Most Care
full In Her Exercise of Her Royal
PrerOgatives.
From the Spectator.

From the Spectator.
Just think of the blunders all living mon
archs have made, even Francis Joseph OF
Austria, whom men now account Mes
tor, and all the premiers of our time, and
then reflect on this reign, in which there
has never been a blunder great enough 20
be perceptible to the million eyes which
always watch a court. 1t seems to us that
wholly apart from the difficult question
of the proper limits of loyalty to an indi-
vidual, there Is enough in the known facts
to justify all the reverence with which the
queen is regarded, and which extends FAR
beyond the limit of her scepter, wide as
that limit has now become.
Foreigners occupy in many respects the
position of postcrity and among foreigners
capable of judging the reverence for the
queen is at least as great as in England,
her opinion when known to foreign courts
weighing at least as heavily as it does with
her own ministers. This is due, say several
of our contemporaries this week, TO the IN
termarriages which have made her mai
esty the common ancestreSs in so many
courts, IN every court, indeed, not strictly
Catholic, and no doubt the strange post
ton of the special honor in which she IS
held abroad; but 1t is not the principal
one. Relatives can hate one another very
hard, and the queen is as greatly respect
ed in Washington or New York as in Ber-
lin or st. Petersburg.
Her majesty is great because her reign
has been great-great in its enterprises,
great in its successes, great, above all, in
that compatibility which, owing mainly
to the character Of the sovereign, 1t has
shown to be possible between more than
republican freedom and mnnarchial IN
situations. The British empire is the great
est object lesson ever given to the world
to show that state can enlarge its bor-
ders without living under tyranny and
without universal military service.
