GiehtiaS Spiders.

! Spider" time has arrived, and the
Filipino boy is happy, writes corre-
spondent. he does not know much
about marbles, but when spider time
arrives, and that is just after the
rainy season commences. he knows
that he is to have great sport. There
are two harmless varieties OF spiders
that are green and yellow in color and
mature in June. They are as long as
the common black spider, so plentiful
in California. The Filipino boy catches
these and keeps them secure in a
box. A small rod the size and length
Of knitting needle is procured A
spider is then placed on the rod An
other boy comes along and he bets q
cent that his spider will whip. Then
tho sport commences. The boy who
is challenged produces his spider,
places it on the rod with the chal-
lenger's. Both spiders make rush
for each other and fierce battle en-
sues. Sometimes the stronger Of the
two will wind web around the 9th
er, fastening him to the rod and COM
pletely putting him out Of business.
The spiders sometimes fight for ten
minutes. Nearly every boy has from
eight to twenty spiders, and they bet
all the Filipino pennies they can get
on the result Of the fght.-Detroit

Chinese 9caorance.

One oS the delights Of travel In
China is the innocent ignorance Of the

most sophisticated and heaven-en-

more engaging. They live very close

gods and devils, between whom they
make little practical distinction, com

Jamaica's Cleft Mountain.

In Jamaica there is mountain,
between Kingston and St. Thomas in
the east, on the south side Of the is
land, which bears the name Of Judg-
ment mountain. or Mount Sinai, be-
cause Of the awful catastrophe which
occurred there in 1892, by an earth
quake. In the district of St. Andrew
only one house was left standing. A
mountain some 1900 feet high was
cleft perpendicularly for 900 or 1000
feet from the summit, as smoothly
cut as the housewives knife could cut
down through a cheese. The slice Of

An odd Tombstone.

With ali its remarkable monuments
in stone and tributes in bronze, Airing
ton contains nothing more striking
than the memorial that has just been
erected over the bones of the battle
ship Names men. 1t is a huge, old
fashioned anchor, probably made CEN
tury ago. and recovered from the deep
near Boston harbor. This relic Of the
sea is roughly welded out of iron, with
an immense wooden crossbar, and, as it
reposes above Capt. Sigsbee's brave fel-
lows, rears itself ten feet in the air. It
rests on spacious concrete base, rails
ing it from the level Of the hundreds of
mounds. and can be seen from the Po-
tomac outlined against the sunset
sky. Very appropriately the huge an
chor, with its eloquent inscription, IS
fanked on either side by ponderous
looking Spanish mortar of antique
bronze and showing the signs of great
age. The mortars are mounted on low
piers OF masonry, and, though either
would be imposing in itself, they ap-
pear diminutive in comparison with the
giant anchor.-Chicago Chronicle.

The sest-Loved Woman.

The world loves Q true and noble
woman more than the greatest beau
ty that ever lived or the most brilliant
intellect. Within the memory OF
every one there are noble, womanly
lives, which have been dearer and bet
ter to US than the most brilliant won-
en- Of history. Not for the beauty OF
a Helen Of lroy OF Cleopatra, nor
for the brilliarcy Of George Sand
or q Joan Of Arc would We sacrifice
these lives. Indeed, If ne had to
choose between one or the other, we
would wipe from the slate OF history
those historic characters rather than
destroy the sacred influences Of a
noble mother, sister or wife which
have shaped and formed our careers.

Hard to Down a philosopher.

A playful gust Of wind came along
and picked off his hat. 1t was Of tho
straw brand, vintage OF 1900, already
out Of date, although still quite pre-
sentable in appearance. That hat just
got up on its rim and bowled merrily
along the sidewalk, while the usual
number of feet and canes were thrust
out to check its progress.
''Never mind" called out the owner
Of the hat, cheeriully, I'm going that
way, anyhow"
So he walked on in the hats wake
without any hurry and overlook 1t
within block. Then it rolled into a
gutter, which was dirty. This would
have disconnected anyone except q
philosopher.
"Never mind" said he again, as he
gave the hat careless brush and put
it on his head. II was going to get q
new hat tomorrow, anyhow!"-Chi-
