THE recent death of Romanloff. the
Russian skater and the old-time cham
pion, reminds me" said an old resident
to the Washington Star, "of the fact
that he gave exhibitions of his skating
in this city over thirty-five years ago.
He was not only fast skater, but he
was specially skillful in all kinds of
fancy and trick skating, surprising in
his grotesque skating any of the roller
skaters seen on the stage The par
ticular exhibition which | remember.
and which l was present, took place
on the ice which had formed in the
foundation of the Luther Memorial
Church, on Fourteenth street
"Romanloff gave his exhibition to
some of his friends, who had been in
vited to see him by Mr.. Bodisco. long
the Russian Minister at Washington.
He was the only skater l ever saw
who could skate on his head. He had
a fur cap on his head, on which a skate
was attached. He would turn a hand
spring from his feet and land on his
head, and skate away upside down.
He also did a trick with skates on his
hands and feet in which he represented
a bear skating on all tours. The foun-
dation of the church afforded skating
place seventy-ive feet by about forty.
which was sufficient for him to do his
work, the audience standing on the
foundation walls"

Nearly everyone has had the bright
idea that it must be a tremendous
amount Of work tc get up a diction-
airy, but few have any notion of the
real size of the taf k. When Johnson
got his famous dictionary started he
calculated that. with six assistants, he
could complete the task in three years
It took him nine years instead. He re.
ceived the small re,ompense of $500
and had to pay his assistants out OF
that.
Webster worked "a years before his
dictionary made its bow to the v Grid
Webster was very punctilious in his
definitions, and so painstaking that 1t
was a wonder he completed the work
when he did
The words which give the compiler
Of dictionary the most trouble are the
little one-syllable Saxon words. Their
history extends back into the Saxon
period and their n gaming has become
twisted in many directions. Words
with pedigrees are the hardest to trace
When a new dictionary is projected
one man is selected as edtor-in-chief
and he appoints his subeditors. Then
appeals are sent out to literary people
In general for voluntary contributions
In the nature of rare and curious
words. There are over 1000 people
who have offered til cir services in the
case OF dictionary now making. They
are to read standard works. ancient
and modern, in the search for curious
words, their origin end meaning. These
words, written on slips of paper, are
filed in thousands Of pigeon-holes. Over
six tons Of clips have been put away.
This means 6,000.0e1 words. But only
1000, 900 will be printed. The amount
Of work necessary to properly sort

The sticking qualities of the mad
stone are illustrated in the family of
merchant near Hartford. Ky. Last
summe Johnnie, fourteen year-old
son of the merchant, was bitten by a
mad dog. The wound was in the palm
of the right hand, and when a small
maidstone about three inches square
was applied it adhered readily; in fact,
so much so that it could never be got
ten loose, and is now thoroughly i'm
bedded in Johnnie's hand. The boy
has become accustomed to the situa-
ton, and, in fact, finds the stone quite
a convenience in many instances. Be
sides whetting his razor and breaking
nuts with it, the stone is a convenient
weapon, with which Johnnie makes all
the other boys in the neighborhood
stand around.

Bus-RidiDS London.

Some notion of the bus-riding pro-
pensities Of Londoners may be gained
from these figures just given out by
the secretary of the General Omnibus
company: Their 1900 buses carry
1870, 1000, 900 passengers year (at an av-
erage fare of 11ad.), and run 20, 900, 900
miles. The yearly receipts are 1.2OO.-
600 pounds. The 1881 horses con-
sumo 100000 quarters OF provender
every year at cost of 328,0O0 pounds.
The number Of raen operating this
traffic is 5000. The ticket system
saves the company 100000 a year. It
may not be generally known that Lon
don owes the omnibus system to
France. 1t was a French company
which introduced buses into London in
1855, and one of the original French
directors is still on the board of the
l.. G. o. G.

Malt and Mortar.

Our readers who have studied old
accounts relating to masons' work are
aware that there was practice, which
has only died out in recent times, of
blending beer with the lime and sand
used for mortar when the work that
had to be done was required to have
special stability, as it was assumed that
the beer rendered the mortar much
stronger, says the Athenaeum. The
people of Sheffield in 1916 acted on this
opinion, for a bushel of malt was
bought for blending of his lyme"
when John Pittes repaired the Lady
Bridge. We presume that beer was
made with it before the blending pro-
cess took place; and there cannot be a
doubt that John Pittes and his work.
men tasted thereof, just to assure
themselves that it was of the proper
strength and quality.
