spain,s Riches.

If Spain really wants to keep up the
fight and can get funds in no other
way, she might turn to her cathedrals.
When she was at the zenith of her
power the cathedrals became the re-
ceptacles of vast wealth, and for the
most part that wealth remains to-day.
There are many chapels that to the
depth of two inches are worth their
weight in gold. Not only are the mo-
sales that cover the walls of very high
value, but the shrines are loaded with
rare ornaments, and in many cases
with precious stones of great size and
worth. A chapel in the great Cathe-
dral of Seyilla has Virgin lighted by
a huge emerald fixed in the roof above
the head, and the garments of the vir-
gin and saints have jewels sewed on
them. Here, then, are untold riches,
but country would be far gone, in
deed, to make use of so sacred relics
for carrying on an unholy war. At
present they are vigorously guarded.

THE SPEED OF THE HORSE
Claimed He is the swiftest Animal in
the World.

A man on horse is twice a man.
He feels more secure, is Drawer, is in
every way more formidable. European
officers know this. In clearing the
streets of Paris only cavalry are used.
We call out the infantry of the militia
and have to shoot people. In Europe
they use the fiat of sword held by a
humanity will stand the impact of
horses. They melt before the charge
like snow. 1t is the uncomfortable in
stinct to get out of the way, and to do
it as soon as possible. Some day we
will grow wiser on this side of the At
lantic. Just now we have fifty infan-
try companies of militia to one of cav
airy Many of our militiamen are I'M
able to pay for the keep of horse,
which is expensive, even if man does
the caring and bedding with his OWL
hands. Many others of them would
not know what to do with horse if
they had one. This is bad, but with
the trolley and the bicycle crowding
the steed of our fathers closer and
closer to the wall there is not much
chance that it will be bettered. Five
hundred years from now, unless all
signs fail, grayheaded college profess
ors, with piano-calves and eighteen
inch chests, will be lecturing upon an
extinct animal and reconstructing him
for the benefit of students from piece
of stifie and front tooth.
I believe that the horse is the swift
est animal in the world. One hears
strange tales of the speed of the ante
lope, the white-tailcd fawn, the spring
box, the elephant, he jack rabbit and
the wolf The fastest of these is the
American antelope, and I have never
seen one that a good pony could not
best. AS for the rabbit or any kind Of
deer, the horse will simply run over
him. Taking into consideration the
fact that the horse generally carries
more than $50 pounds of rider, saddle
and gun, one gets an idea of how much
superior he is. A speedy pony will
outrun a greyhound. l have seen this
tried. 1t is customary among men who
use them to give the dogs all the law
possible in order to avoid riding over
them. In hunting with brace of very
good coursing hounds five years ago it
was found that there were five ponies
in the party which would outfoot the
dogs, and one Of them, a gray of I'M
doubted mustang ancestry, if given the
bit would do his best to run over them
and kill them. He did not like them.
They belonged to his owner and he
was jealous.

Sheridan at the MiIliner,s.

Gen. Sheridan as he became older
conquered his shyness. At the time of
the Commune he was in Paris with his
aide-de-camp. There was also stop
ping at the same hotel a charming
American woman with whom he was
slightly acquainted. The prisoners
had been liberated and were rushing
madly through the streets. The order
had also been given that all windows
and shutters must be kept closed. Shut
up in her dark room and hearing the
noisy rabble below, the woman became
greatly alarmed.
There is but one thing for me to
do" she cried, ito insure safety. / will
put myself under the care of the Amer
lean General"
She therefore sent her card to Sheri-
dan, who at once called and offered his
services. He also advised that she
should join his party in the morning
and get away to London. Still she APP
peared distressed Finally she cried:
ut is my bonnets at Virot's. They
were to have been down to-day. How
can I go and leave them?"
The General grasped the situation,
and offered his arm to escort her to the
milliner's. Happily it was not far off.
Ever afterward he delighted to tell of
his pleasure at seeing such an array of
dainty headgear He had never been
at a milliner's before.

when the sultan Goes to Pray.

When the Sultan of Turkey attends
the Friday midday prayer at the mos
que, in Consta4tinople, the garrison of
10000 men are stationed along the
route SO that he shall be safely guard
ed from the moment he leaves his
palace until he is on his carpet in the
sacred edifice. He often rides in a
closed carriage, surrounded by a body
guard. He makes these weekly jour-
neys in fear of his life, and he insists
upon every precaution being taken.
Thousands of people gather to see the
Ruler of the Faithful, but the best way
to see him is to get the ear of the
Chamberlain or Grand vizier, who. by
judicious bribery, may be prevailed up
on to admit you to the strangers box
of the mosque, where priests and poll
ticians, soldiers. sailors and civilians
jostle one another in their desire to
obtain glimpse Of Abdul Hamid at
prayer.

A Royal Inn-Keeper.

The King of Wurtemburg may GER
fain1y be said to be the only Knight of
the Garter who is a hotel-keeper as
well as monarch. This has long been
a tradition in his family, but not till
lately was it discovered by the rulers
OF the beautiful little German kingdom
how profitable inn-keeping can be-
come. When Peter the Great was
travelling incognito through Europe he
refused to stop anywhere but at an inn
To circumvent this whim the then
King of Wurtemburg put tavern sign
outside one of the royal palaces, and
dressed as an inn-keeper, himself well
coined the czar. This royal personage's
descendant now owns two large hotels,
from which he is said to derive rev.

Interesting Notes.

The Gar of Russia proposes to con-
struct a canal spanning the Black and
Baltic Seas, which would be of great
strategic Importance.
The American railroads expend in a
year a sum more than one hundred
million dollars in excess of the total
expenses of the United States Govern
ment.
A trapper earned four hundred dol
lars in three months by the capture
OF coyotes, wolves, and wildcats in the
vicinity of Drew's Valley, Lake Coun-
~, Oregon.
A New York electrician has designed
new incandescent lamp which has
the carbon filament strung on insula-
tors on fat base, with dome-shaped
glass bulb instead of the usual shape.
Fire-proof paper bricks are coming
into use for building purposes. They
are made with a hollow centre, to in
sure uniformity in hardness, and the
hollow is afterward filled with cement.

SUGAR CONSUMERS.
MARITIME PEOPLE SEEM TO EXCEL IN
ITS CONSUMPTION.

England Is the First in Sugar Consumption
Because She Leads as a Maritime Pow
er-The Sugar Producing Countries Do
Not Consume Much of their Product.
The sugar crop of the world amounts
IN normal year to about 100000
tons, of which the larger part, 100000
tons, comes from beets, and the bal
ance, 100000 tons, from sugar cane.
OF the latter the largest proportion
comes from the West Indies, and
large amount from the Island of Java.
Among the countries producing beet
sugar, Germany comes first, with about
one-third of the worlds crop; then
Austria, with about as much, and then
France, Russia and Belgium and Hol-
land together, with substantially the
same quantity.
In respect of the production of beet
sugar in the United States there has
been vast increase since the estab-
iishment of the Mckinley tariff of 1890.
The year previous the American prod
net was $500 tons. Two years later it
was $4,000 tons. Four years later it
was 10000 tons. Last year it was 49,
900 tons, and the product is on the in
crease. The Mckinley tariff establish
ed, between July l, 1891, and July l,
1895, bounty to be paid by the United
States government to sugar producers,
with view of stimulating the industry
and compromising those engaged in it
for the changes made in the duty upon
imported sugar.
Among scientists the opinion has
been general that a moderate amount
of sugar, like a moderate amount of
salt, should enter into the dietary of
the people of each nation, but is only
when the figures of the consumption Of
sugar are examined that it is seen that
the quantity consumed varies radically
and it is curious fact that in those
countries in which the maritime spirit
the spirit of navigation, commerce,
travel and eolonization-is strong,
there is a very considerable consump-
ton of sugar per capita, whereas in
those countries in which these quail
ties are not predominant among the
Inhabitants the consumption is smaller.
In England, first among the maritime
nations of the world, the consumption
of sugar is IS pounds a year for each
inhabitant. In Denmark it is 40, in
Holland 81, in France 30, and in Nor
way and Sweden 25, whereas in Rus
STA it is only 10, in Italy Z, in Turkey Z,
in Greece 6, and Servia f. The con-
sumption of sugar seems to have very
little connection with or relation to
the production of sugar, for in Aus
tria, the sugar product of which is
large, the average consumption is only
Is pounds, while in Switzerland, in
which there is no production to speak
OF, it is "A. And another curious phase
of the matter is that there is a great
disparity in the consumption of sugar
in the two tea-drinking countries
England and Russia. The large
amount of sugar consumed in France
is attributed, in part, to the fact that
the French confectioners and candy
makers, and more especially those do
ing business in the city of Paris, use
in their trade enormous quantities of
sugar in a year, adding abnormally to
the average consumption of sugar in
the French republic.
