LAND or RUNNING BIRD.

Phenomenon That Follows Digging in
Trinidad's Asphalt Lake.
The tourist may take passage to the
"land of the humming bird"-as Trim
idad people like their country to be
called and after securing accommoda.
ton at the only decent hotel in the
colony, proceed to the lake by one of
the small government steamers plying
coastwise three times weekly, disem-
bark at the Brighton pier, and proceed
to the scene of digging" OF all the
crude, rough and ready means Of ex-
tracing wealth from mother earth, the
Trinidad lake asphalt operations are
the most striking, says a writer in the
New York Post. The Visitor arrives
on a fairly level plateau, spotted here
and there with tiny pools Of water, be-
meath which the soft shiny substance
known as asphalt glitters in the re-
fections Of fierce tropical sun. Scat
tered over the surface Of the lake doz,
ems of sWarthy negroes are plying pick
and hoe, extracting the tar-coaly look
in the shade of nearby shrub OF
under the protecting shelter of an UNI
brella and watch the negroes pile heap
after heap of the asphalt into the end
of the endless chain of tubs that hurry
along to the pier, from which one has
but recently landed, until a yawnirg
excavation Of twenty or more feet sug-
gests to the supervising darby that the
time has come to move bit further
on. In the course of a few hours the
excavation resulting from the morn
ing's diggings begins to look less: deep,
and by the evening the spot from
which more than five or ten tons have
been dug is again level with the sur
rounding earth and ready to be dug
over by the gang Of noisy blacks.
From the point of digging to the pier
is about a mile or less of endless
chain descent; moored to the pier are
big sailing vessels and sometimes
steamers, into whose capacious holds
the tubs discharge the pitch at the
rate Of two or three hundred tons ;,ey

Queer Kinds OF Bullets,

While lead and steel are the most
common metals in use for the smaller
proJectiles employed in war, gold, sill
yer, iron and even wood have been
fired. At the siege of Amadanagar bull
let's of gold and silver were fired into
the enemy's camp by order of the
Mogul Princess Claude To make such
bullets more effective curses were in
scrlbed upon them. Mr.. Selous, the
African hunter and explorer, is said to
hove shot lions in the north of BuIu-
Wayo in the SOS with golden bullets.
Lead was scarce and it was not easv
to get fresh supply; but gold, mined

the fighting on the Kashmir frontier
the rebellious Hunzas used bullets

they fired against the British soldiers.
Bullets of stone were used before the

bullets were mentioned as in use in

pistol away and drew another, which
also missed fire. Gen. Jackson was On
the arm of Mr.. Woodbury., secretary OF

renee was arrested and arraigned be-
fore Judge Cranch and committed. At
the trial he behaved much as Guiteau
did, interrupting the proceedings and
talking all the time, until the judge
ordered him to be removed from the
court room. A commission appointed
to examine into his condition reported
him of unsound mind. He was com
mitted to- an insane asylum, where he
lived for many years. There was an
attempt made to involve some political
adversaries Of Gen. Jackson IN this at
tempt on his life, but the examination
and trial revealed nothing but that it
was the act of a mailman. Gen. Jack
sons escape from death was providen-
tial. The, pistols were loaded very
heavily, and after the arrest of Law
renee were fired, the caps exploding
and igniting the powder readily in The
pistol and sending the balls through
several inches of plank. It was stated
that Gen. Jackson said at the time that
he knew where the attempt originated.
