The Sultan's Household.

' In the time of the sultan s predecessor
the seraglio buildings stretched along
the banks of the Bosporous for q miles,
and contained some 1900 persons, the
household order and arrangement being
much as they are at present. The sui
tan's mother-when he has a mother
receives servile obedience from all it's
inmates. Then comes the hasnadar
ousta, or mistress of the treasury, gen.
orally shrewd old woman, promoted
from the ranks Of the servants for her
talent for housekeeping and gossip. If
the sultani valide dies, the hasnadar sue
ceeds her. Under Abdul Medjid the
seraglio was long ruled by washerwo-
man, whose chief adviser was a bal
tadic, or newer Of wood, who could not
read, but had the power of dismissing
viziers. The sultan's four kadines come
next, who rank as spouses till he di-
vorces them and marries them to some
of the pashas. Then there are five or six
ikbals, or favorites; then the guieuzedes
(from guieuz, eye-girls who have at
tracted the masters glance).
Every woman who marries from the
seraglio takes with her, besides large
portion in cash, her clothing, jewels,
furniture, carriages and servants. After
them come the kadines- effendis, the
mothers of the sultan's children; then
the unmarried princesses Of the royal
blood, then the foster mothers and foster
sisters of the sultana or princes or prin-
cesses Among the attendants are cham
berlains, secretaries, guards, eunuchs,
scullions, cooks, pages, musicians,
dancing girls, dwarfs, buffoons, priests,
astrologers, BARRIERS and shampooers,
tasters Of the sultan's food, athletes,
cockfighters, ramfighters, jugglers and
grooms to look after the 500 horses con-
tanned in the imperial stables. -New

Calling an Irish Salmon.

Mickle, gaf in hand, was hopping
around behind me, more like wild In
dian with tomahawk than an expert
enced Irish water bailiff about to i'm
pale a salmon. Sport, too, joined in the
infectious excitement and jumped at
my feet and barked at every splash that
the big fish made. Down along the riv-
er bank the cute old bailif glided and
crept out behind projecting rock.
Once almost coaxed him within strik-
ing distance of the one eyed gaffer, but
Mickle prided himself on his skill and
feared to run the risk of missing his
stroke. Off again dashed the fish across
the pool, as if warned by instinct of the
unseen danger, and it was fully ten
minutes ere had him played back to
the proper point. "
Then, like lightning flash, the cold
steel impaled him, and the great, quiz
ering body was triumphantly lifted On
the gaff by the exultant bailiff, show
ing fish as beautiful as was ever land
ed. The sheen of his scales and the
small sea lice still clinging to him
showed that he had only just come up
from the salt water. It had taken me
exactly 46 minutes from the moment
he was hooked till he lay on the bank,
and. he weighed % pounds by my pock-
ct scales. IL
The thunder and lightning" fly was
carefully extracted from his gullet, for
it had gone down deep, and the bailif
smiled in appreciation of the remarks
on his good Judgment of water, wealth
er and flies which felt in duty bound
to make. I had time for only short
rest in the shade after my exciting ex-
perience, when splash! splash! in front
invited me to the sport again. Sports

Eyeless Animals.

Many of the lower animals are known
to see without eyes, the skin having a
high degree Of sensitiveness to light.
Thus earthworms, the maggots Of flies
and eyeless centipeds find their way
about nearly as readily as similar crea.
lures which have eyes. In a recent Ger
man work on the sensitiveness to light
of eyeless animals, DIR. Nagel, who
made his observations chiefly on mol
lusks, found that the eyeless bivalves
and snails he experimental with showed
high degree of sensitiveness to light.
He found that some species reacted es-
pecially to elimination, others to in
crease of light, and that this difference
was correlated with other characters. -

Thirty of Them Made In q Pair of
Brooches of the Year 1911.
Perhaps the best proof of the advance
of the Japanese in civilization is to be
found in their use of pockets. The peo-
pie of that country have usually six or
eight pockets cunningly inserted in the
cuffs of their wide sleeves. These pock-
cts are always filed with curious mis-
cellany. As common as the Irvine in the
pockets of young Americans is the pray
or amulet written on sheets of rice pa
per and composed by the BONES. In &C.
cordance with their faith, these anu:
let's are swallowed like a pill in cases
of mental or physical distress. Another
essential seldom missing is number of
small squares Of silky paper. These are
put to unexpected uses, such as to hold
the stem of lily or lotus, to dry tea
cup or to wipe away tear. Among the
Chinese and other nations pouch is
used instead of pocket. This was also
the case in western Europe in the mid
die ages and for some time afterward
The pouch was attached to the girdle,
along with dagger and rosary. It was
called an aulmoniere or gipciere. It was
often ornamented with curious patterns,
gold and silk threads, coats of arms and
religious sentences. A dramatist of the
time of Henry VIII wrote:
From my girdle he plucked my pouch;
By your leave he left me never penny.
Brooches, however, had pockets at an
early date. In an old play written about
1911 it is mentioned that man had his
breeches plated as if they had 80 pock-
cts. But pockets did not attain their
proper position until the adoption Of
the modern style of mems garments.
With waistccats great opportunity for
pockets presented itself. Later they were
made very broad and deep and were
covered with embroidery and buttons.
In the reign Of George III waistcoat
pockets reached such size in England
that they became objects Of ridicule, so
that they soon began to resume more
moderate proportions. New York Post.

WHAT AN ENGLISH DUKE COST.
Vanderbilt Is Said to Have Paid Sl5,OOO,-
900 to the Marlborougbs.

900 to the marlborougbs-
Fifteen millions is the price of a real
first-class duke. At least that is what
the New y ork World says Mr.. w. K. Van
derbilt paid for the honor of allying hi;
family name with that Of the ancient
house of Marlborough.
This statement, says the World, is
made on the unquestionable authority
Of an English gentleman visiting in
Washington who has been in a position
to know all the facts. His account is
circumstantial and undoubtedly cor
rect.
The terms of the settlement were
$4,000, O0O-or, to speak with absolute
accuracy, the income of $4,000, 000-on
Mr.. Vanderbilt's daughter during her
lifetime and $5,OOO,OOO on the duke. Ii
children are born they will inherit the
mothers portion at her death. If the
marriage shall be without issue this
$10,OOO,O 900 will revert on the death of
the duchess.
But the dukes $5,OOO,OOO is to be his in
any event.
The settlement was not made in cash,
but in investments for the benefit of
the duke and duchess. These invest
ments are principally in the stocks and
bonds of the Lake Shore and. other Van
derbilt railroads.

la the Century William Hugh RO-

Icons Interest in the Battle of New
Orleans" In this is quoted n hither-
TO unpublished letter written by Gen.
Jackson to Mr. James Monroe. A pOr-
ton of the letter follows:
There was "A very heavy fog on the
river that morning, and the British had
formed and were moving before /
knew it. The disposition Of the rifle
men was very simple. They were told
off in numbers one and two. Number
one was to fire first, then step back and
let number two shoot while he reload
ed. About 600 yards from the rife
men there was n great drainage canal
running back from the Mississippi
river to the swamp in the rear of the
titled land on which we were Operat-
ing. Along this canal the British
formed, under the fire of the few artil-
lery pieces had near enough to them
to get their range. But the instant l
saw them | said to Coffee. whom / di-
rected to hurry to his line, which was
to be first attacked: BY God, we have
got them; they are ours" Coffee
dashed forward. and. riding along his
line, called out: Don't shoot till you
can see their belt buckles The Brit
ISL were formed in mass. well closed up,
and about two companies front.
The British, thus formed. moved on
with a quick step. without firing shot,
to within 100 yards of the kneeling rife
men, who were holding their fire until
they could sec the belt buckles of their
enemies. The British advance was eX-
ecuted as though they had been on pa
rade. They marched shoulder to
shoulder with the step of veterans, as
they were. At10O yards distance from
our lines the order was given: Extend

RABBIT INCUBATION.
Compelled to Resort to tho
French Theory.

Australians Compeueu TO hcsoTt " tho
French Theory.
The Australian government is again
alarmed over the tremendous increase
in the rabbit population which each
year does greater destruction to foliage
and crops, says the New York Journal.
Mr.. Pond, the Queensland government
bacteriologist, has been engaged by the
Central Rabbit association to conduct
a series of experiments for the whole
sale destruction of the rabbits by inoc-
ulation.
The tests will be made in a territory
comprising about 300 acres. This plot
will be divided into three parts by as
many wire sections. The inner plot-a
square-will be reserved for the inoc-
ulation, after which the rabbits will be
turned into the second section, so that
they may be closely studied and
watched. Those which survive a longer
period than that allotted by Mr.. Pond
will be transferred to the third section
for more minute study as to the effects
Of the incubation.
Great secrecy is preserved as to what
virus will be used, go that in case of one
failure another disease may be used to
demonstrate that incubation will
eventually rid the country Of the pests.

They Refuse to Do Reliable Work When
Placed in High Buildings.
There is one disadvantage about very
tall buildings which is just now being
noticed by the occupants. 1t is perhaps
a small disadvantage, but still is worth
considering, as il involves some annoy
ance to those who have not made pro-
vision for it, says the New York Times.
The trouble referred TO is the stop
ping of pendulum clocks by the vibra-
ton of the buildings. Many a pendu-
for years in old-fashioned low struc-
lures has refused to run al all when
moved into some one of the new tall
Steel-framed buildings in the lower
part of the city. On the lower floors OF
the buildings the clocks run fairly
well, but when higher up in the build
ings, they become more whimsical,
and en- the top floors viii not run at all.
Mr.. Dunn, of the weather bureau, has
a fine pendulum clock in the tower of
the Manhattan Life building, which has
not done an honest days work since the
weather bureau was moved into the
new offices. 1t has stopped so Often
that it is 10 longer to be relied upon.
The pendulum swings continually, but
only from the vibration of the building,
weeks. The only relief is in replacing
the pendulum clocks with others that
have balance wheels.
