The Spaniards OF Gibraltar,

Your Spaniard born in Gibraltar is
quick to call himself an Englishman,
though his actions may belle his pre-.
tentions. Your true Briton, with a
long line Of cockney ancestors, looks
down upon the whole Spanish nation
as an inferior race.
The English soldier who conducted
us through the Moorish galleries in
the Notifications interpreted his
local description with information re-
garding regimental regulations. He
told OF the schools where man might
learn everything, particularly the
languages. "Of course nobody ever
learns Spanish; it's no good otter you
leave here, and while you are here the
Spaniards have to learn English il
they expect us to have anything to do
with them"--this in q tone of careless
contempt, quite impossible to convey
in words.
As another bit of interesting in
formation, he told us one man out
Of every four was allowed q wife,
''snd very useful she is in making
money for her husband; for she TAX s
in officers washing and does any other
little thing that comes handy"
9 IL suppose you choose your wives
among the pretty Andalusians," com
mented some one.
The fellow stiffened himself to his
full height, thus emphasizing at once
his scorn aud the cut Of his trim
jacket: beg pardon, ma'am, but q
British soldier wouldn't lower himself
by marrying with . dirty, lazy

where Stone IL Scarce.

when you consider" said a rail.
road man, "that when people in the
extreme southern section Of New Jer.
sey have need of stone for building
purposes they have to 60 q hundred
or more miles for it, it is not surpris-
ing that the houses down there, and
even the big hotels are invariably
constructed Of wood. Now, at Cape
May, for instance, they have q seawall
Of stone, and every pound Of rock in
it had to be hauled from Trenton, 1870
miles away. just now the Reading
railway is in aposition to secure stone
ballast for little more than the cost
of transportation, because OF the oper-
atoms upon the Reading subway in
this city. There are several big
stretches Of solid rock along the line
of this work, and much Of the stone is
now being sent down to Atlantic City
to be used for riprapping where the
railroad company is raising its tracks
across the meadows. "-Philsdelphia

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS

A small piece of cheese and an cleo
trio wire form the latest rat-trap. In
cheese is fixed TO the wire, and the in
slant the rat touches the cheese he
receives a shock which kills him.
Very young children are not sensi-
tive to pain to any great extent. DIR.
Denger calculates that sensibility is
seldom clearly shown In less than four
or five weeks after birth, and before
that time infants do not shed tears.
A Mr.. Rous claims to have invented
n powder which, used in the place OF
concrete, will have the effect OF max
ing buildings freproof. II can also be
used in the e1tingnishing OF fires, and
can even be swallowed without fear OF
consequences.
Boats are TO be painted by machine
hereafter at q West Superior wis.
shipyard. Pneumatic power is to be
utilized, a pail OF paini being attached
to the machine, which deposits the
paint in fine spray on the ship, the
operator merely working a sort OF
nozzle much as though he were sprink-
ling a flower garden with watering
pot.
Y The depth OF the sea presents an
interesting problem. II the Atlantic
were lowered 1854 feet the distance
from shore to shore would be half as
great, or 1900 miles. II lowered a
little more than three miles, say 49,

land from Newfoundland to Ireland.
This is the plain on which the great
Atlantic cables were laid.
The rapidity Of thought is limited
and voluntary action of the muscles is
slow in comparison with the involun-
tary movements Of which they ore
capable. The researches OF Messrs.
Broca and Richet show that ten sepa-
rate impressions is the average high
est limit Of brain perception. The
experiments prove that each e1cita'
ton of the nerves il followed by a
brief period of inertia, and during
this period no new or appreciable i'm
preston can be made. An individuals
voluntary ements of any kind can
not exceed ten or twelve per second,
although to the muscles, acting indie
pendently Of the will, as many as
thirty or forty per second may be pos

Across Australia.

David Carnegie, who is q son of the
Earl Of Southesk, has just returned
from q remarkable expedition from
Coolgardie, in the south, to Kimber.
ley, in the north Of Western Australia.
The journey Of 5000 miles, which &C.
cupied over year, brought out the
innate determination, pluck and self.
denial of the young explorer. Dur.
ing the hazardous journeyings over
the endless sand deserts Mr.. Carnegie
and his companions had on more than
one occasion to 60 without water in
order to give it to their animals. The
route followed by Mr.. Carnegie, at
whose expense the whole enterprise
was conducted, had never before been
traversed by a white man. and the
result OF his observations is that IL
has now been proved that the greater
part OF the interior of the colony is
nothing but waterless desert.

LOVE.

Oh, Love 10 not q summer mood,
Nor flying phantom OF the brain,
Nor youthful fever Of the blood,
Nor dream, nor fate, nor circumstances.
Love is not born OF blinded chance,
Nor bred In simple Ignorance.
But Love hath winter In her blood,
And love IL fruit OF holy pain,
And perfect flower OF mnldenhood.
True love Ia steadfast asthe skies,
And, once allght, she never files;
And love Is strong and still and wise.

REPORTED ALL OVER
OAHU.
Kauai Also Suffers-IIalf Mile of the
Oahu Railway Track Under Water
a Foot Deep.

The freshets continue and addition
al reports of damage continue to be
be received. Two blfdges were wash
out at Waialua yesterday. The tor
rents came down from the mountains
carrying with them an immense
amount of firewood which had been
cut by Chinese and others, besides
wreckage of other kinds caught up
by the floods. This material played
its part in carrying away the bridg-
es. The breach from Waialua to Kae-
ma Point is strewn with the debris of
the bridges and other destruction
wrought.
The Kahana and Punaluu bridges at
Koolau were swept away. Both CT
the bridges were comparatively new
ones. and the Kohana bridge was an
expensive one.
About half mile of the Oahu rail
road tracks between Waiapio and
Waiapapa was under water for a time
yesterday afternoon. The water was
from eight to twelve inches deep. 1t
was not possible to run trains through
it and passengers were transferred
from one train TO another on the 9th
,er side of the flooded point. In the
emergency the passengers had num-
ber of ludicrous experiences, some be-
ing carried on the backs Of others
across the flood.
The roadbed of the railroad stood
the test eXcellently and no permanent
damage was done. Nowhere on the
line was there washout.
Superintendent of Public Works
Rowell has received word that two of
the bridges on Kauai have been wash
ed away. In one case about forty
feet of the approach went with the
bridge.

Fully two hundred Hawaiians gath

goods were handed out. These in
cluded an immense quantity of single

bolts of sheeting. pieces of white

can be no doubt that there is consid-

ladies are planning to make a house

week.
The generous contributions sent the
society last week have been exhaust
ed. The ladies are sorely in need of
more funds to carry on their noble
work
