4 Very Rare Find.

A rare find in the shape OF a
moa's egg has been made in a
mining district in Central otago.
There was a fall Of earth in a
dredging claim, and presently the
huge egg was seen floating unin.
iured in the water. The discovery
is therefore interesting from the
fact that this is the second per.
feet moa's egg that has ever been
found. The only other perNct
specimen was unearthed by a man
while digging in the sllnvial soil
at the kakoura mountains in the
early COS. This egg, which was
nine inches in length and seven
inches in breadth, was taken to
England and sold for one hundred
guineas. Some idea of the size Of
these eggs may be CLEANED from
the fact that a mans hat makes
an excellent egg cup for them.

Laughs In Parliament.

II Is a curious fact that the
house Of commons likes new
members-who are usually select
ed TO move and second the ad.
dress on the opening Of parliament
Ito betray some nervousness,
and II is seldom that the house is
appointed.
The ease Of young Irishman
who got mp TO speak one night in
1879 provoked n storm Of laugh.
ter. He was unable TO utter a
single word. For a quarter Of an
hour he stood on his ieet. and al
though he INDUCED in great
deal OF gcsticulation, not a sound
seemed TO escape his lips. The
would be orator was in such an
extreme condition Of nervousness
that while thinking he was ad
dressing the house he was in real.
ity talking TO himself
There is one more point" said
a wellknown member, who had
been speaking for some time IN
a debate in August, 1894; but
what the poiRt was he had in
Etantly forgotten, as he candidly
told the house as he sat down.
4 similar misfortune once befel
tho late Lord Iddeslelgh when, as
Sir Stafford Northcote, he was
making a vigorous attack on the
Gladjtonean government Of the
day. At the close Of his speech
he said: "Before / sit dowa ther,
Is ore more charge against "a,
prime minister, and ii is the most
serious"
Then he stopped short and was
yisibly perturbed, for he had for
gotten what the charge was
Twice again did he repeat what
he had said, but the point would
not come back to his mind. and he
had perforce TO resume his seat.
