The Unique Horn of the Unicorn.
The horn of a unicorn was shown at
Windsor castle and in 1898 was valued
gentleman of Rome, saw with his
own eyes two uniforms presented to the
sultan of Mecca by king of Ethiopia.
They were in park of the temple of
Mecca and We're not much unlike colt
of 80 months of age. This was in 1903.
The animal became extinct about the
end of the seventeenth century.
The unicorn is represented in the
ruins at Persepolis, and it was adopted
by the Persians as the emblem of speed
and strength. In the middle ages it
was the symbol Of purity. The unicorn
hated the elephant, and it used to whet
its horn on stone before it struck the
foe in the abdomen. No family. by the
way, should be without one of these
horns, the average length Of which is
four feet. They defend from witch
craft. Thus Torquemada had one al

more, drinking cup made from one
will be safeguard against poison, as
will the ground powder put in drink,
and indeed the wells of the palace Of
| St. Mark could not be poisoned in the
good old days Of adventure because
these benefcent horns had been
thrown into them. Unicorn's horn was
formerly sold by apothecaries at $120
| an ounce.-Boston Journal.

once talking rather foolishly about
Darwin and his books, and he said to
the bishop of Winchester CWilberforce).
"My lord, have you read Darwin's last
book on the Descent of MANI Eyes,
have said the bishop, whereupon
the young man continued: "What non
sense it is talking of our being de-
scended from apes. Besides, | can't
see the use of such stuff. can't see
what difference it would make to me if
my grandfather was an ape"
mo" the bishop replied; Il don't see
that it would. But it must have made
an amazing difference to your grand
mother!'

In 1888 a board of officers convened by

something over S1O0,000,000. This plan
received the approval of the congress,
and since then regular appropriations
have been made ard the work of forti

than SEQ, 100000 have been invested in
a great number of forts and guns, with
all the complicated and scientific ma

not until the conclusion of the labors

established and its stability assured.
In Porto Rico we have reduced the

have authority to increase the force to
