PEACEFUL BY NATURE.
The Egyptian Abhors Warfare, as Die
His Fathers Before Him.

The Egyptian Abhors Warfare, as Did
His Fathers Before Him.
The ordinary Egyptian is by instinct
utterly opposed to military life. The
last thing he wants to do in the world is
to fight. He hates the pomp and cir
cumstance of glorious war, and nothing
in his nature is appealed to by the idea
of strife and combat.
He is q good-tempered, pleasure-lov-
ing man, and for 5000 years his ances-
tors before him have loathed the clash
of steel. Go back as far as you like in
Egyptian history and you will never
find trace of the Viking spirit in the
inhabitants of the Nile valley. The sue
cessful wars of the Pharaohs were
waged by mercenaries, and the papyri
show that the military calling was
always described as pure evil. The rec
ords show little delights in battle, but
plenty of picturesque contrasts between
the horrible miseries endured by the
soldier in the field and the pleasant,
snug life of the civilian tribe.
The spirit of the old Dane who when
he felt death approaching put on his
armor, because he would not die like a
cow in his house, has no echo in the
past or in the present of the true
Egyptian.

Bank Notes Make Good Fuel.

The novel spectacle of steamers
furnaces being fed with bank notes was
recently witnessed at Mediterranean
port. Forty sacks of the apparently
valuable paper were tossed into the fur
mace under the longing eyes of tho
stokers, who stood restively by with an
evidently burning desire to possess
themselves of at least handful Of that
which they somewhat inelegantly styled
rum fuel" The notes were Cancelled
notes of the bank of Algiers, whose
manager superintendent the operation
OF their absolute combustion.

WHALE ON a CABLE.
The Insulation Damaged by the Founder
ing of the Big Fish.

Ing or the Big Fish
Submarine cables are usually i'm
bedded in the Shiny bottom of the
ocean, but at certain points they hang
like wire bridges over deep submarine
valleys, so that whales and other large
inhabitants of the deep may become
dangerous TO the cable Once in awhile
it is the cable that becomes dangerous
to the whales, as recently shown in an
ACCIDENT to the western Brazilian
cable. There was some trouble with
the wire, and after many futile efforts
the seat of the trouble was discovered
&c miles north Of Santa Catharina. The
repair ship Viking was Sent to repair
the damage, and began to take up the
cable near where the seat of trouble
had been located. After the cable
proper had been grappled and was
taken up on the large drums provided
for the purpose it was found that ii
1oated very much easier and was more
buoyant than was ordinarily the case.
The reason was discovered when in a
loop of the cable the carcass of whale
of more than 60 feet in length came up
with it. 1t appears that the whale
had become caught under the cable,
and, not being able to lift it nor to go
forward or back, it suffocated, since
1t could no more rise to the surface. BY
its last spasns or attempts to free it.
self the whale had damaged the cable
so that the insulation was rubbed OFF
and the wire became useless. This is
the third case of the kind, since sim
liar case once happened in the Persian
gulf and another on the Peruvian coast.

REeuKEs FROM THE BENCH.
Lord Chief Justice Erie Gently sits DowI
on the Counsel

Lord Chief Justice Erie was prone to
interrupt counsel when 1t was found
that the judges had already made up
their minds against him. On one occa-
sion Mr.. Bovill, Q. c., soon afterward
made a judge, was stopped with: Here
we stand, four men, and we have all
firmly emphasizing the adverb) made
up our minds that there must be new
trial; but if you think it worth your
while going on after that (playfully),
why, of course, We'll keep on hearing
you" Whereupon the Q. C. laughing
ly sat down. On another occasion he
interrupted with: Il beg to inform the
counsel there is time in the mind of
every man at which he lets down the
foodgates of his understanding and al
lows not one more drop to enter and
that time in my mind has fully arrived"
