THE REPORTED COMING CHANGE
In the Management of the Grand Opera
House.

Mr.. G. B. Bunnell, lessee of the Grand
Opera house and the Hyperion theater,
when asked, last evening, concerning
the reported change in the management
of the Grand for next year, said that
he knew nothing about the reported
change and that so far as he now knew
he would have the Grand next year,
but said that changes might be made
within the next year. He seemed in
dignant that such a report had been
published and pronounced it premature.

A Cup of Tea.

Nothing is easier to make than a per-

even old housekeepers SO careless and in
different that the tea is thrown into the
pot with guess instead of meas

the water is overlooked or below the
boiling point, and the teapot is allowed
to stand with tea grounds in it from one
meal to the next. To make the tea as
it should be scald the teapot and stand
ON the back of the range. While indi-

tea, good general rule to follow is to
allow one teaspoonful of tea to every

with fresh water, and when just boiling

A Fearful Rite.

Cats were sometimes sacrificed to the
devil, and a fearful rite called the
Taigheirm was occasionally practiced in
Scotland. Black cats were indispensa-
BILE for this horrible proceeding. The
midnight hour between Friday and Sat-
urday was the time selected for the sac
rifice, which continued four days and
nights. After the cats were dedicated TO
the devils by barbarous rites one of
them was placed upon a spit and roast
ed alive amid its own terrific howlings
and those of the other intended victims
The moment the cries of the tortured
cat were stilled in death another one
was put ON the spit, for minute of in
terval must not take place if the sacri-
fcer would control hell and it's spirits.
After certain continuance of the re-
voting rites internal spirits appeared
in the shape of black cats, who mingled
their unearthly yells with those who
were being tortured to death. Finally a
cat of enormous size appeared, the Tai
gheirm was complete, and the sacrifice,
If he had the courage to hold out, de-
manded the reward of his Offering,
which was usually food, riches, chill
dren or anything he might require. The
last Taigheirm took place in Scotland
in the middle of the seventeenth century.

What is most expensive product in
the world?-It is charcoal thread,
which is employed for incandescent
lamps. 1t is, for the most part, man
ufactured at Paris, and comes from
the hands of an artist who desires his
name to remain unknown in order
to better protect the secret of manu-
facture. 1t is by the gram { 1G1
grains) that this product is sold at
wholesale. In reducing it's price to
the basis OF pounds, it is easily found
that the filament for lamps of twenty
candles they are worth $4,000 per
pound, and that for lamps of thirty
candles they are worth $4,000 per
pound. The former have diameter
of twenty -thousandths of one milf
meter Gone millimeter equals 0.0394
inch,) and the latter four and one
half thousandths of a millimeter.
The filaments for lamps of three
candles are 50 light that it would

each of them is ten centimeters. 6. 637

home comfort: Take of thought for

1t is doubtful if the majority of
mothers realize the Importance of
training boys from the cradle for their
duties as husbands. Even those whom
themselves have suffered from the
neglect of their mothers in law prop
erly to bring up the men they have
married, seldom make any direct at
tempt to render easier and happier
the lot of the women who shall in
time become united to their own sons.
Boys are bred to be as selfishly intent
upon their own comfort, as thought
less of the will and pleasure Of the
other sex, and as unconsciously sure
of the innate right to accept as mat
ter Of course any sacrifice from fem
mime source, as if the whole world
had not for centuries been taught by
facts that half the miseries and mis-
misadventures of domestic life are
due to the prevalence Of these very
errors.
If anything could excuse the
thong htlessness of SO many men i'll
their treatment of their wives, it
would be the fact that they are train

rected affection and mistaken indul
gence of their mothers.

CURRENT MISCELLANY.

On the borders of the Everglades you
often see a large yellow spider. He
swings a strong web from two plant
twigs on each side of a path of clear
space of ground and waits for his prey.
The web is in the shape of hammock
and tapers at each end to fine point,
though quite broad in the middle. The
bright color of the owner seems TO mark
him out for destruction. He is clearly
defined against the white sand or dead
leaves, and you wonder what he would
do for defense in case of attack. APP
proach quietly, and he watches you in
tently. Now raise your hand suddenly,
and he will disappear. While you are
wondering what became of him you see
first blur where he had been, then sew
eral spiders; then you catch sight again
of the yellow ball you noticed at first.
Repeat the performance, and the stage
effect is renewed. The disappearance is
absolute-there can be no doubt about
it-and the little magician trusts to it
entirely for his protection. How is it
done? AS soon as he is threatened he
starts the vibrations of his airy ham
mock. These become too rapid for the
eye to follow, and he vanishes. AS these
become slower you see blur and then
several spiders as the eye catches them
at different points of his swing until
finally he rests before you.-Florida
Citizen.
English and American Railroad Terms.
Many minute differences from Eng
lish usage in travelling terms strike the
tourist in America. Our railway, adapt
ed from the earlier colliery tramway,
is always a railroad; the line is track;
the carriage, or, more technically, coach
"a relic of the stagecoach-is car, a
word suggestive of Irish influence. Our
luggage becomes baggage in American,
and the railway station is the depot
both words of a slightly Gallican tinge.
AS for terminus, term inapplicable
and incorrect, as far as London is con-
cerned at all events, where no railway
now actually terminates-and the word
really means boundary anyhow-the
Americans have not adopted the word
and are better without it.
Our engine driver-another coachy
words, more suitably, an engineer,
and the stoker is a fireman, as he is
indeed also in England among railway
men. Our blocking office" is more ap-
propriately ticket Office. The English
term is another survival of the coaching
days, when seats were necessarily
booked" often some days beforehand.
The guard another venerable relic
of the mail coach, is obviously the con-
ductor, word naturalized among us,
but French in origin, as indeed is the
omnibus itself, to which the conduct

laugh at the humor of some of their

spring. These answers, says an ex
change, were given by girls averag
ing thirteen and half years of age,
at a public school examination in
Brooklyn:
@. What do you know OF the bat
tie of Bunker Hill?
A. The battle of Bunker Hill was
fought long time ago. Dame old
Barbara threw up the window, and
said, Shoot, if you must, this old
gray head; but spare your country's
flag, she said.'
@. Tell all you know about the
battle of Lexington?
A. The battle of Lexington was
fought between the Greeks and the
Persians. They were thick in the
middle and thin at the ends.
@. What instrument is used to
measure the height of mountains?
A barometer is used to measure the
height of mountains. You dig hole
in the top, and stick it down in the
middle. Some boil them to make
them batter.
