of an old Venetian coin worth about
one.half cent of our money. The name
ls applied to newspapers because II

was read 1t was handed back to the
owner. who charged the next conner q
gazette for taking peep at it.

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1901-10-16

One of the most extraordinary catas-
trophies that have befallen vessels OF
the United States destroyed the sloop
or war Oneida in 1863. She was bound
homeward, with a jolly ships COM
pany, eager TO see wives and sweet
hearts and native land once more,
when not far out of port she was
struck by the British steamer Bombay
coming in. The stem of the Bombay
cut off the stern OF the Oneida. The
ship was sinking rapidly, and guns OF
distress were Immediately fired, but
the Bombay steamed on her way and
left the vessel to her doom. She went
down, and all but one or two of her
crew were drowned.
The captain of the Bombay gave no
other reason for his conduct than that
he had Lady Eyre. the wife of dis
tinguished British satrap, on board and
did not wish to disturb her nerves with
scenes of shipwreck. He was mobbed
when he reached Yokohama, dismissed
from the service, socially tabooed from
that time on and died in disgrace
year or two later.

ANIMAL LIFE.

In Maryland sparrows have been
known to raise six broods in one year.
In England there are seldom more than
three broods.
Ostrich farms are profitable. Birds
are worth 500 apiece, and a good spec
linen yields about $50 worth of feath-
ers at a plucking.
Cats evince, as is Wee known. a Gu
rious emotional disturbance when in
the neighborhood of Valerian plant, OF
which they are very fond. 1t apparent
ly produces in them a species of intoxi-
cation.
There are records of elephants that
have lived for 200 years, and an age
Of 100 years is not regarded as so very
old for an elephant. 1t takes about a
quarter of century TO get the elephant
TO full maturity.
A French anatomist has analysed the
skeletons of sc chimpanzees. gorillas
and orang Outangs and asserts that he
has found in them bone diseases like
those which af1ict mankind and in
about the same proportion.

IcebeFES.

The captain of an ocean steamer is
often warned of the proximity of ice
bergs by the men in the engine room.
When a ship enters water considerably
colder than that through which it has
been going its propeller runs faster.
and as such water surrounds the vi
cinity of icebergs for many miles the
engineers know when the propeller's
action is greatly accelerated without
any increase of the steam power ice
bergs may he expected. OF course the
is the most useful indi-
Gator of icebergs.

Ornaments on saddles.

In the fifth century saddles were
made so extravagantly magnificent
that n prohibition was Issued by Leo l.,
in which it was ordered that no one
should ornament them with pearls or
precious stones. In the sixth century
the Emperor Mauritius required that
the saddles should have large cover
Ings of fur. The ignominous punish

origin in the middle ages.

FlNIckY TURKISH LADIES.
They Are Very Careful About what
They Take In Their Hands.


Our Constnntinople correspondent
writes: IL is not generally known that
there exists among Turkish ladies OF
high class n kind OF caste feeling SINH
lar TO that prevailing among Hindoos
1t takes the form OF fear of contami-
nation from the outer world and is only
observed. as far as 1 know, by those
who cannot afford to keep servants IN
sufficient numbers. Before meals ladies
always wash their hands at n tap from
which the water runs into marble
basin. They will turn on the tap when
they are just going TO wash. but when
they have finished they let the water
run till somebody shuts e OF. as TO do
1t themselves would make them MI
clean. They cannot open or shut door.
as the handle would be uncleaD, so a
slave is generally kept handy for the
purpose.
One of these fastidious ladies was
talking to n small niece the other day
who had just received n present OF n
beautiful doll from Paris. The child
presently laid the doll on the lady's
lap, who was Mortified and ordered the
child to take it away. AS the little girl
would not move it and no servant was
near. and the lady would be defiIed by
touching a doll that was brought from
abroad, the only thing she could think
of was to jump up and let the doll fall,
which broke to pieces. The same lady
will not open a letter coming by post,
but a servant opens it and holds it
near her for her to read. If her hand
kerchief falls to the ground, it is imme-
diately destroyed or given away, so
that she should not use it again. This
curious state of exclusiveness or fanati-
cism exists. am told, in many of the
large harems. Among men it is not
practiced.-London Telegraph.
