THE MooNsHINER EXPLAINED.

A Georgia revenue man had a novel
experience recently with a moonshiner
in a suspected district.
Early one morning he discovered an
old man standing near a grave in the
mountain region.
But the trouble about this grave
was that the revenue man had OBJ
served smoke issuing from the place
where the headboard should have
been.
He surprised the old man, who i'm
mediately feigned great sorrow, ex-
planning his presence there by the
statement that his brother was buried
there.
At the mention Of his brother he
feigned great grief and said he never
would get over Tit wuz SIGH a hard
desperation OF Providence
But isn't It peculiar, said the rev.
enue man, that I see a stovepipe at
the head of his grave, and smoke is
suing therefrom?"
Stranger" replied the weeping
m%oonshiner, he died in his sins, an
hits my opinion they're a-roastin' of
him down below."-Atlanta Constitu-
ton.

Where byron Got the Theme for uia
Most Famous Poem.
The simplest form Of the story, ac-
cording to M. Antoine Latour. who
hunted this "belle legende" to It's
source in 1855. seems to be that Don
Juan Tenorio killed the Comendador
Ulloa, whose daughter he had stolen
away. The Comendador was buried in
the chapel OF the Franciscan Convent,
into which, It was rumored, Don Juan
forced his way for the purpose Of in
sultins the tomb Of his victim. where
upon the emgy. descending from its
niche, seized upon the offender and
bore him body and soul to the internal
regions; the most probable explanation
being. however. that the monks, in or
der to check the atrocious career OF
Don Juan, enticed him within their
walls-whence he never came forth.
The idea Of the talking statue was
nrst utilized by Lope de Vega, who
lived near to the time of Don Juan;
next, Arise de Molina gives the com
plete legend In his play entitled "El
Burlador de Sevilla; or. FL Convidado
de Pedra" (The Mocker OF Seville; or,
the Marble Guest). A century later
Antonio Zamora uses it again In a play
translated "All Debts Must be Paid"
Moliere presents IL in lie Festin de
Pierre, 10 laying the scene in Sicily how
ever. and improving the character Of
Don Juan so little that his audiences
were shocked and his play prohibited
and forgotten. His Don Juan vas more
a citizen Of the world than a S%paniard,
and the legend had become Familiarity
known all over Europe and hourished
as a favorite theme for puppet shows
and pantomimes. 1t had appeared In
England in Shadwell's play, called
'The Libertine," and at a later day
Byron took possession OF the name,
saying.
"Ill therefore take our ancient friend
Don Juan,
We all have seen him in the panto-
mime
Sent to the devil somewhat ere his
time"
But his hero is by no means a res
direction of him of the Spanish Leg
end; he is only a peg on which to
hang another and no better story.
Finally Mozart and his libretist, the
Able Da Ponte, took it up, eliminated
some of its most %repugnant features,
and gave us the opera Of Don Clio
vanni."-Poet Lore.

HuMoR OF rHR LAW.

The opinion Of a New York lower
court, as printed in a certain report,
says in respect to the conclusions Of a
referee: "The report Is so %exhausting
that the court could not improve on
r." This is modest, OF course, but
judges do not always realize how ex-
hausting their opinions are.
A rural justice on being asked by an
attorney II a certain decision Of his
was "accordin' to the CODE" replied:
II dunno whether It is or not, an
what's more, 1 don't keeri I liant got

Judge Breckenridge in reprimanding
a criminal, among other hard names
called him a scoundrel. The prisoner
replied: "Sir. l am not as great a
scoundrel as your honor-takes me to
be-"
Put your words closer together" re-
piled the judge.
Sir Henry Hawkins was once pre-
siding over a long, tedious, and unin-
teresting trial, and was listening ap-
parently with great attention to a very
long-winded speech from a learned
counsel. After awhile he made a PEN
ell memorandum. folded it, and sent
it by the usher to the @. G. in ques-
ton, who, unfolding the paper, found
these words: Patience competition.
Gold medal. Sir Henry Hawkins;

In a contest over the right to build
a fume, plaintiffs promised to make it
secure, "and like the deacon's shay,
" " make it strongest in the
weakest point" But the court said:
1T is not the plaintiffs iume, though,
that this court thinks should be made
strongest in its weakest point, but the
proceeding by which they can alone
obtain the right to build the fume.
However, as far as they have gone,
their case is truly like the deacon's
shay-it has collapsed entirely, and,
like the deacon, they are on the rock,
for they are out Of court"

THE WINDOW OYSTER.

Queer Shell That Serves as Substitute
for Glass In Manila.
In Manila, where there is an inter
esting field open to the naturalist, the
natives have a queer substitute for
glass. 1t is a bivalve shell of about
nine inches of surface, so transparent
that print can readily be seen through
it, and admitting a mellow light in a
room where it is used as window
glass. The shell is an attractive OBJ
ject, perfectly straight, and in appear
ance resembles isinglass. One could
almost imagine that it was some
skilful invention OF the natives, could
not the growth rings be readily OBJ
served. The outer sioo 70 80 49, g.
percepuDly rough, while the interior Is
perfectly glazed over, and in the light
has the pearly luster found in many
of the thin-shelled oyster-like mol
Iusks- of the tropics. The shell is the
placuna placentia of science, and is
well known in China, the common
name being the Chinese window oys-
ter. 1t is employed there also for win
dows, and used in lanterns. The Chi
nese grind up the she'll and make
from it the silver paint so common in
their water collOws. The bivalve is
very common in the Philippines, and
forms a very good and cheap substi-
tute for glass; one that is extremely
ingenious and suggestive Of the value
OF shells.

Captain Gerlache is still in Punta

Buenos Ayres to repair his ship, the
Belgica, and he will then sail for Eu-

named in honor OF Lieutenant Dance,
who was in charge Of the magnetic OBJ

year.
This Gerlache or Belgian expedition
sailed from Antwerp on Aug. 16. 1897.
The Belgica was well stocked and had
on board a hardy crew and a number
Of scientific men. The crew counted
twenty, and there were provisions
stored away in the hold of the ship
sufficient to last two years. The ship
itself was formerly a whaling vessel
and was especially reconstructed for
this expedition. 1t has a displacement

was ably fitted for the work he had
in hand and which he seems to have
well performed. He studied engineer
ing at the University of Brussels. He
has followed the sea since 1885 and
rose to the grade of captain in 1894.
The government Of Belgium appropri-
ated $4,000 francs for the expedition
and the city Of Antwerp added to this
the sum Of $4,000.
Although it discovered unknown
land, the Gerlache expedition did not
reach the farthest point south. This
