Ee Bought the Boat That Brought Him
 Here Penniless.
 An interesting anecdote is told of the late Capt. Theodore Julius, whose death occurred recently. Some time ago, says the Philadelphia Record, Capt. Julius went over to a shipyard in Camden to take look at the old packet ship Tona- wanda, which was being converted into a coal barge. The captain took par ticular interest in the old ship because of his having served as mate aboard her in the early eos. While he stood watch ing the old vessel a total stranger ap- preached him and asked: Isn't your name Julius?" The captain replied in the affirmative. "You were a mate on that ship in the summer of 18e3?" "Yes," said the captain. You don't remember me- continued the stranger, "but I remember you very well. I was a steerage passenger on the Tonawanda at that time, being on my way to this country. I've been pretty prosperous and I've just bought the old ship and am going to make coal barge of her. Strange, isn't it, that I should come to own the ship that brought me practi- cally penniless to this country?" The captain agreed with him that it was very strange.

DANGER IN TOYS.

Those Sold on the Street May Convey
 Infection.
 The reading public is by this time fairly conversant with the ordinary sources of danger from contagion to which it is exposed, and it has been duly warned to avoid the indiscrimi- nate use of hair brushes and towels, and of the ear pieces of the phonograph; to touch not with ungloved hand the brass guiding rail of the street car, and to be suspicious even of the telephone transmitter. But, according to a med ical journal, the latest hazard in infec- tion is confined to children. Many in genious toys are now offered on the sidewalks of city streets by itinerant vendors One of these is tube of pa per, furnished with short piece of bamboo at one end, up to which it is coiled by the action of a slight steel spring. On blowing into the bamboo the coil is unrolled and shoots out near ly yard, and the sudden extension has comical effect, very entertaining to the youthful mind. Another form of toy is the miniature bagpipe, which is made to emit its characteristic sounds by the pressure of air from small rub Der ball which has been inflated by air blown from the mouth. Attention is called to the possible consequences of buying these toys, which are presented to child after being inflated by ques- tionable breath, and perhaps wetted with the moisture of the still more questionable lips of the vender. An in- fected mouthpiece has been known to be the origin of grave constitutional troubles, and it seems strange that per sons who would hesitate to drink out of a glass that has been used will buy these toys and take them to their chil- dren without thought of the disease by which they may have been contami- mated. Among the impoverished mak- CTS and vendors, sore threats, diphthe- ria and contagious levers in very early stages may be raging, and children may contract fatal diseases of even a worse character than any of these by using these toys.

Eccentricities of Francis Key Dunlop, ot Washington, Who Died Recently.

Eccentricities of Francis Key Dunlop, of
 Washington, Who Died Recently.
 Students of mental character have an interesting study in the character of Francis Key Dunlop, who died in Wash ington recently, says the New York Commercial Advertiser. Mr. Dunlop was known to everyone who has spent much time in Washington during the last third of century. At college he was an athlete and developed himself physically to remarkable degree. He lege, and this resulted in brain trouble that made him the most eccentric man in Washington in dress. Belonging to one of the oldest and richest families in Washington, he was supported with an abundant income. The effort for physical development he had made in college caused an impression on his mind which resulted in his padding his shoul- ders to tremendous degree. With this eccentricity he also had a ten dency to large-sized collars and cuffs the cuffs always being made to order and twice the size ordinarily worn by men. His neck he painted red and h1s face was coated with white, which gave him ghastly appearance. This mode of attire Dunlop continued to the day of hls death, his clothes be- ing made by the most fashionable tailor here. During his earlier years he was constant attendant at theaters and at social events, for he never stood Ion any formality,' and would go to recep- tions without invitation, his well-known family always guaranteeing kindly reception for him in the coterie with which he was familiar But notwith- standing these eccentricities, Mir. Dun Top is pronounced by men who knew him most intimately to have been one of the soundest and most discerning literary critics of his day. He left an immense library, buying and reading every new book of any note. Only couple of weeks ago he visited the capi- tol building for the last time, He was nearly seventy years of age, and despite the enormously padded shoulders and arms walked feebly. He was the most unique eccentric character that Wash ington has ever known

But, notwithstanding they are now in the |city itself, there are few lots for sale vet lat prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine" of President Cleveland and his cuckoos which means that kind of dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new elec- tric car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property. Inside of five years this will be business property. Buy a lot now for residence and when business crowds you out the rents will SUD- port you in house outside in some addition where you can keep horse and drive into town and collect your rents.

Foods Of All Nations.

Tastes certainly differ vastly in the
and so do appetites. An Italian, fol
instance, would be content with a
piece of bread and grapes for days
food, while an Eskimo i'm the same
time would demolish twenty pounds of
flesh. and Tartar perhaps even more.
However. quality and not quantity is
the matter of greater interest. and
certainly here we have plenty Of va
riety. The nose of the moose deer is
considered Il great delicacy by the New
Brunswicker, while the fins and tail Of
the shark are esteemed specially nour-
ishing and delicious by John China
man. The Celestial has also fine
taste in unmatched ducks and chickens.
sea slugs, fish maws. birds nests, and
many other delicacies unknown in un-
enlightened Europe.
In Polynesia raw sharks flesh is
much relished. and 1t is openly sold In
the market of Havana. On the Gold
coast the natives rank shark amongst
such highly esteemed delicacies as alli-
gator and hippopotamus. We our
selves revel In turtle, and yet we de-
cline to have anything to do with the
tortoise, though a very large amount OF
the soup in Italy and Sicily is made
of the land tortoise boiled down to II
strong essence. Land tortoise are also
much appreciated in some Of the West
Indian Islands. and in North America
the eggs of the close tortoise are reck-
Oned great delicacy.
In both North and South America
the flesh and the eggs of the salt water
terrapin are considered a luxury. Skill.
fully cooked, even the hideous. scaly
iguana is rendered very palatable, for
its flesh resembles chicken with the
flavor Of turtle. If stewed or curried
it is as good as rabbit or chicken, and
the soup made from it is excellent. The
eggs of reptiles are wonderfully good.
and none are better than those OF the
iguana and the land tortoise. CrOcO-
dies, lizards and frogs are all eaten
by various people. and the first Is very
often excellent food, resembling veal or
pork, but some kinds have Il fishy
flavor that is exceedingly disagree
able. Alligator tastes somewhat like
sucking pig, and at Manila is sold for
food prices, while the Chinese greatly
value the dried skin for making the
gelatinous soups to which they are so
partial.

Silk Manufacture.

The manufacture of silk in the
United States began less than forty
years ago mt Paterson, n. j., in Il small
room over Il machine shop. The indus
try has grown to immense proper
tons, the factories occupying hundreds
of acres, and their annual output Of
finished goods now amounts 10 500
100000. The raw silk market " the
world amounts to $400,OO0,OOO an
nually, one-quarter of which is inn
ported into this country.
From the small beginning of two de-
cades ago there are now 400 silk manu-
featuring establishments in operation.
The 400 factories employed II 900 peo-
pie. and the annual wages paid was
$19.OOO.OOO. There were also fifty-twO
establishments for dyeing and finish
ing goods, with capital stock of about
$2,5OO,0OO, paying $1,254, 79S in wages.
We are now manufacturing every
article made in older silk countries,
and our goods are classed as fully
equal to the foreign product. Ameri-
can inventive genius has wrought
marvellous improvements in mechan-
ism, speed and artistic effect. I'm
proved machinery for the manufac-
ture of silk. invented and made by a
Connecticut firm, is being shipped to
England. Russia, switzerland and
Japan. and is accorded high standard
of excellence.

Some curious figures have lately been
made public by n celebrated Berlin
physician, which seems to point to the
fact that il man wants to live long
and preserve his health and strength
he ought to marry. Among unmarried
men between the ages Of 80 and ~
the death rate is ~ per cent. Among
married men between the same ages
1t Is only Is per cent. For fOrty-one
bachelors who live TO be 40 years OF
age, seventy-eight married men trium-
phantly arrive mt the same period. The
difference gets all the more marked rs
time goes on. At 90 years Of age there
are only twenty-five bachelors to forty
eight married men; at 20 there are
eleven bachelors to twenty-seyen who
were married, and by the time they
reach 90 the married men are three to
one, for there are nine of them to every
three bachelors. And yet, I'm the face
OF facts like these, we still find mon
daring to remain single! 1t really is
as much as their lives are worth. if
they only come to think of 1t. Men may
talk OF their lives being shortened by
domestic worries and anxieties and
cares. That Is all rubbish. Statistics;
must tell the truth, and these statistics
OF the Berlin doctor say that the mar
who Is bachelor stands In far greater
risk of shortened span.

A FREAK WHITE DEER.
Head OF . Sheep, Eyes Of Calf,
and Half Tame.

as Farmer George Lebroke. who
lives two miles north of FOxcroft vii
lage, Me-, was driving in his wagon
urday, he saw ahead of him what he
took to be white calf browsing in
the bushes by the roadside. His horse
showed symptoms of fright. and, as he
whipped him up to pass the creature
the farmer saw that 1t was not calf
but a white deer. No sooner was he
well past than Lebroke bethought HIM
self that he wanted that deer, and
turning his horse, drove back to his
NeighbOr Washburn's house to borrow
n gun. No one was at home, so starr
ing again for the corner, he drove for
the third time by the deer, which mani
tested little alarm at his presence and
continued to pasture by the road.
At Pratts Corner lives Clarence
Sprague, and to him the farmer told of
his discovery. Sprague took his Win
chester rifle and went down the road
to the point where the deer had been
seen. The creature had left the road
side and was crossing pasture, brow
sing leisurely at the sprouts and bush
tops as lie went. Sprague followed it
into the woods. and dropped 1t with a
bullet Mt the second shot. ten minutes
after he first came i'm sight of it. He
brought ii into town the same day,
where it attracted attention as n
curiosity.

with spike horns. It's skin was milk
white. except for double row Of gray
ish brown spots extending along the
back from the nose to the tail. But
the most remarkable feature about 1t
was the head, which in shape strongly
resembled that of sheep, the face be-
ing short and aquiline, while the eyes
were those of calf rather than of a
deer. The creatures legs were shorter
and stouter than is usual I'm deer.
Various theories have been advanced
for the singular conformation Of the
animal, but the most probable one is
that it's mother, as sometimes happens
with the deer, ran with the domestic
stock in some back pasture, and, by her
constant association with them, some
of their characteristics were impressed
upon her unborn fawn. This theory
is the most probable in view of the un-
concern with which the young buck
viewed the approach of men and the
horse and wagon.
The skin and head, complete, has
been mounted by local taxidermist,
and eventually will find place in some
scientific collection, where 1t will afford
an interesting object of study to the

sT1S THE THoUGHT7 UL zC1
THAT TELLS.

From our home OF peace and gladnesi
Comes this happy. jingling rhyme,
With our hearts that know no sadness
At this blessed Christmas time,
As we hear the dear old story
In the peallng OF the bells,
To the giyer comes the blessing,
'"Tis the thoughtful act that tellA"
The mistletoe of bygone days
Hangs aloft within our hall,
And the bright red berried holly
Grapes the pictures on the WALL
And the air of sweet c0ntentment
Which In our household dwells
Bears out the cherished saying,
''Tis the thoughtful act that tells"
Let the miser hoard his money
What pleasure doth he find?
For when the day of reckoning comes
II must all be left behind.
And he laughs to scorn the message,
or the sweet. melodious bells,
AS they bring to him the message
'"Tis the thoughtful act that tells"
Let them ring and ring 1t louder,
Let it sound through every cline,
How our God will love the giver
At the merry Christmas time.
Let them ring and ring for ever,
Until every bosom swells
With the love Of helping others
"Tis the thoughtful act that tells"

Herring Drops.

After n heavy shower had once swept
over Lake Gynant Il shower OF small
fishes resembling young herring began
to fall, to the amaZement of the women
who were gathered about the banks
washing. The storm was particular
~ severe one, accompanied by thunder
and lightning, and the living rain
had evidently been transported a lon:,
distance before being dropped into
their native element again.
The transportation of fish through the
air is by no means uncommon. The
city Of Louisville. Ky, was once visit
ed by shower of fishes. The fall OF
rain was extraordinary, overhowing
the streets. and the following morning
quantities OF small fish. the sun perch.
were found swimming i'm the cutters.
Attempts were made to discover where
they came from. hut no extraordinary
whirlwind had been noticed I'm the
vicinity and, so far as known, tic
source was never traced. That fishes
are lifted ont Of the ocean by the wind
and whisked away. is well known
fact. One morning the farmers of the
island OF Isla. Argyleshire. We're amaz.
ell to find numbers of small herring ly.
Ing In the grass Of their fields. and az
many of them were still alive 1t was
evident that the transfer had been made
recently. A similar experience was
chronicled by the farmers OF Kent:
while Lord Eastnor describes fall or
crabs upon his well known estate.
Tyttenhanger Park, Kent As with
others recorded, the crabs fell ducing
or following fierce rain storm and
had been caught up by the wind.
