The Swiss Bands.

The Swiss bands marched to the music
Of fife and drum or of their own voices,
the notation Of one Of their marching
songs being still preserved. The forest
oantons also sent horn with their COM
panies, which instruments were known
BY nioknames, Bull Of Uri, Cow Of Unter-
walden, and the like. Their sound was
long a note of terror to the men Of Aus
tria and Burgundy, and made grand
rallying cry for the Swiss In action. But
apart from this, these horns appear to be
the origin of the bugle horns which still
appear on the appointments Of our light
infantry, and have displaced the drum as
the distinctive instrument Of the foot SOL

of its own, which on march or in action
was posted in the center under guard Of

equally certain that had your excellency con-
fined your action within legal bounds that

My chief regret ia that am forced by your
action TO engage In what the outside world
will consider game OF opera oouffe by with
McLaurins undigniied and peurile action !;
but the purpose for which 1t was rendered has
been thwarted by Senator McLaurin's precip-

When She Had but One Stage Costume
For Five Five Act Plays.
Three months elapsed between Mary
Anderson's first appearance on the stage
and her second performance, "a heart
breaking interval" writes Mrs. De Ma
varro in The Ladies' Home Journal. Man.
ager Macauley of Louisville then offered
her his theater again for a week, and she
presented the chief roles In five plays
"Fazio," 1.-THE Hunchbaok," "Evadne,
"The Lady Of Lyons" and "Romeo and
Juliet" OF her first weeks engagement
she writes: AT the end Of the week was
In debt to the manager for the sum OF 81,

to cover the running expenses. All had

creditors became unpleasantly tmportu-
nate for my scanty wardrobe was not yet
paid for. This consisted of white satin
dress, simply made, which did service for
all the parts. 1t sparkled In silver trim
ming for Juliet, was covered with pink
roses for Julia, became gay In green and
gold for Evadne and cloudy with white
lace for Pauline. The unfortunate gown
owed Its many changes to the nimble and
willing fingers Of my mother, who spent
much time each day In Its metamorphoses.

dress and q modern black silk gown,

would be so useful but which had to be
discarded after Its first appearance, COM

for five plays Of FIVE acts each, requiring
at least 10 gowns. We had built up
financial as we'll as artistic hopes for that
week and were disappointed in both. But
1t proved more successful than was at first
thought. for shortly sitter, Ben De Bar,
one Of the greatest Falstsffs Of his time,
engaged me for six nights at his St. Louis
theater. At the end Of that time I found
myself in his debt for the sum of $500, but

press was filled with long articles enthu-
siastio about the present and full Of pre-
diotions about the future"

ANTARCTIC POSSIBILITIES
Explorer BofchErevink Thinks There NAY
Be Future For Commerce There.

Be . Future For Commerce There.
The recent Antarctic expedition was q
commercial one, and commercially 1t was
q failure, because we did not find the right
whale, so valuable for its whalebone. The
Antarctic was fitted out for the hunt Of
that particular kind Of whale; neverthe'
less I have no doubt that the commercial
result Of the expedition would have been
much better had we worked under more
favorable auspices.
do not by any means consider the fact
of our not having met with the right
whale in those seas as conclusive proof OF
their nonexistence in the bay at Victoria
Land. The Antarctic found the right
whale at Campbell island in the winter
time; the boats fastened to five of them,
of which, however, only one was caught.
Now, to me 1t does not seem improbable
that these whales 60 south to the bay OF
Victoria Land, where Ross saw them, in
the summer, and return north In the win
ter. 1t would seem incredible that man
of Sir James Ross standing, supported as
he was by able scientists and experienced
whalers, should have made grave error
when he said that this valuable whale was
to be found in large numbers In those
southern latitudes.
The difference in the appearance OF the
blue whale, as we found it there, and the
right whale, in the method Of spouting, is
so striking that even the most casual OBJ
server could not easily be deceived. Very
possibly, had we penetrated farther into
the large open bay discovered by Ross In
x6o trS% of ho
and Terror, we, too, would have found the
right whale in great numbers. We saw
very many blue whales, but had not the
appliances to take them.
AS remarked at the international geo.
graphical congress, we found few seals.
They increased, however, in punher as
we worked eastward, and seemed afraid
Of the land. All of the seals that we met
on the shore showed much uneasiness, and
speedily made for the water, fact which
strengthened my belief in the existence Of
a large enemy Of the seal on the conti-
nent. T do not doubt that the seAls con-
gregate together in larger numbers at
some places on the bay.
consider the guano beds which we dis
covered of great commercial Importance,
and they ought to be well worth the at
tention of enterprising business men. The
specimen which I brought back with me
contains large percentage OF ammonia.
Furthermore, from the analysis Of the
specimen of rock which I brought back
with me, the possible and probable presence
of valuable minerals on the continent Is
proved, although the lava and the volcanic
aspect Of the coast line do not speak IA
vorably for the presence Of heavy metals
near the surface.-C E. Borchgrevink In

ROMANS LIKE SECRECY.
90 Not Want Strangers to See Their
Household Arrangements.

It seems to be part Of the real SIM
plicity Of the Italian Latin to put on q
quite useless look Of mystery on all ooca-
Sions, and to assume the air of conspir-
ator when buying a cabbage, and more
than one great foreign writer has fallen
into the error Of believing the italian
character to be profoundly complicated.
One is apt to forget that 1t needs much
deeper duplicity to maintain an appear
ance Of frankness under trying circum-
stances than to make mystery Of ones
marketing and profound secret Of ones
cookery. There are few things which the
Door italian more dislikes than to pe
watched when he is buying and preparing
his food, though he will ask any one to
share it with him when 1t Is ready, but he
Is almost as prone to hide everything else
that goes on inside his house unless he has
fair warning Of a visit and full time to
prepare himself for it.

In Rome there was long period during
which not single aqueduct was In work

ply of water out of the Tiber from q por-
ton of the yellow mud by letting 1t settle
in reservoirs, and to sell it in the streets
for all household purposes. Who washed

Sad Case.

A little girl went with her mother to see
q lady who was an assiduous collector OF
china, and in whose parlor were cabinets
filed with her trophies, besides odd plates
and dishes, bearing indisputable marks Of
age, which hung in conspicuous places on
the walls.
The child sat quietly during the long
call, and while her mother and the china
collector talked of matters Of mutual in
terest she looked about her with big, won
dering eyes.
Mamma, she said thoughtfully as she
was getting ready for bed that night,
"don't you feel sorry for poor Mrs. Haskell
without any kitoheD|
"Without any kitchen, ohildf What do
you mean9" asked her mother.
"Why, didn't you seef" asked the little
girl in tone of great surprise. "She has
to keep all her dishes in the parlor.

How tho Chinese Count Time.


The Chinese sundial embodied the
usual principle, but was crude indeed. A
rod or needle set upright reflected shad-
ow on a fat surface as the sun moved.
On this were characters indicating the
hours of the day. The Chinese also used a
water clock called the clepsydra. 1t was
disk Of copper or other material, with an
extremely small aperture, from which the
water triokled, drop by drop. The clepsy-
dra Of Canton is thus described by trav-
eler: "It Is vase Of copper. It is situated
In a pavilion built on double aroh that
crosses street leading from the great
south gate Of the city to the palace OF the
treasurer Of the province. Like that which
existed, and perhaps exists still In the
Peking observatory, 1t Is composed OF four
copper vases, whence water runs from one
to another by little tubes fixed at the base.
The vase that rests on the floor has on Its
wooden cover kind of handle, crossed by
q rule mounted on a float and covered
with characters representing the hours.
When the water has run out-that Is, In
the morning or evening-it Is poured again
into the uppermost vase. There Is little
brick staircase by which the attendant as-
cends.
"In the temples there are attendants
whose business it is to hang up plaoard,
with white ground, on which Is indicat-
ed the hour. They strike the hours Of the
day on a drum, and at night they beat
gong. The attendants who thus look after
the flight of time occupy the intervals be-
tween in making sticks Of incense, on
which are marked the hours. These are
sticks so arranged as to burn a certain
length Of time for every hour, and these
are used by peasants and others. The
stick is lighted when the gong sounds,
and in this way the private individual can
keep very tolerable account of the hours
Us they pass. New York Ledger.
