Voices and NntionnIities.

Is the Neapoitan musical? | think
not; the repetition of two tunes without
seeking change proves something, and
the raucous character of the Neapolitan
voice proves more. II is a subject for the
scientist, this matter of type of voice. Is
it food, climate or mode of use that af-
fects il? For example. Russia is the nat
ural home of the basso profundo, Spain
is the country of tenors, and has been
from the time of imperial Rome, when
the Gaditanian (Cadiz) singers brought
high prices in the slave market; France
produces mezzo sopranos in profusion:
England, contraltos: America, sopranos
Naples pure screamers-and no one as
yet knows why.-Musical Record and Re

WEIGH Of Hudson, Mich,
Wleh was hunting antelopes in Mon.
tana, and was surprised one morning tt
see Lrfl Of the animals appear upon a
ridge some 400 yards from camp. Al the
first movement they scampercd away
WEIGH ran to the top Of the ridge and saw
that after going short distance directly
from the camp the antclopes had turned
and were running SO that their broadside
was exposed. They were nearly quar-
ter of a mile away and Welch did not ex-
pect to hit when he opened on them with
his high power rifle.
His establishment may therefore be i'm.
agined when on seeing one drop and GO
ing to the spot, he found three dead ante.
lopes. each shot through the head. The
three had been running side by side, and
one bullock had potted the trio.

Lifc,s CnntrnNta

According to Noah Brooks, in his vol
ume Washington In Lincoln's Time
1T was natural, but to a lover of Lincoln
almost surprising, that while the lifeless
form of the martyr was being borne home
to Illinois the newly installed president,
Andrew Johnson, was surrounded, court
ed and BATTERED by eager crowds of cour-
tiers and office seekers in Washington.
Multitudes from every part of the coun-
try rushed upon Washington, some with
windy and turgid addresses to the new
president and many more with applica-
tions for official favor To thoughtful
man this exhibition was disgusting be-

fearless, with the ignorant innocence Of
Paradise or Isabella, calm with the IN
tempted chastity Of the cloister, but is
familiar with life and its lures, as well
as susceptible of love and its enthrall-
ment. In that slender maid. as
she looked through Adelaide Nelson's

Don't he Photographed In sul,

Certain materials are risky, to say the
least in photograph. Satins or silks
with high luster throw lights and shaA-
ows which are harsh and unexpected IN

cd and not pronounced are grapes, either
SILK or wool, and chiffon. Stiff, starchy
effects are to be strictly tabooed unless It
DC the transucence of Swiss or organdi.
stripes and large patterns in lace Or silk
are failures. So are big brocades or
plaids. Velvet and fine furs are especially
happy selections, and such accessories ne
handsome opera cloak or long ostrich
ran are deemed happy adjuncts with full

The words folio. quarto, octave duo
decimo and the like have almost if not
quite lost their original meaning. AT first
they had reference only to the number of
leaves into which the sheets used in maxi
ing the books were folded Thus il these
sheets were folded once so as TO form two
leaves or four pages the book was called
folio; if the sheets were folded twice so
as to form four leaves. the book was
called quarto if they were folded four
times so as TO form eight leaves. the book
was called an octave, and so on.

Cows Thnt Wenr Snncn

Animals looking very wise may be seen
on the plains or steppes of Russia, which
are covered with snow six months of the
year. The cows subsist on the tufts of
grass which crop above the snow, and the
rays of the sun on the snow are so daz-
