A Funny Language.

The native dictionary Of Samoa is In

Samoan character. I find ian impossi-
billty, such as an old man getting a
young wife, Another word means Ito
beg deliriously for fshhooks." I'm
welcome" is given, "such as a visiting
party that is accompanied by neither a
handsome nan nor pretty maid"
The definition of widow" or widow
er" is synor ymous with detached she'll
fish.
There are also definitions that show
considerable thought and irony. Mean
ness" for instance, can go no further
than "to climb out on your own bread
fruit tree to steal your neighDors
breadfruit.' Faapuatama, like trum-
pet blown ty wild lads, blown anyhow
and all times; so conduct without con-
sideration. Popoga, to look owl eyed,
as a person staring when food or prop
erty is being divided. Good brown
earth" describes an honest, unpretend-
ing man. To show how difficult the
language is for the stranger I may say
that the little word to means I, we two,
to beat with a stick, to play on a mu-
sical instrument, TO reprove, to tattoo,
to open a vein, to bail cannon, to
wash clothing By beating and to turn
a mersault.-Century.

TRlUMPHS OF SCIENCE.
sensitiyeness OF the Implements OF
the Modern Laboratory.

Sensitiyeness of the Implements OF
the Modern Laboratory.
The eye and the ear have long been
regarded as marvels Of mechanism,
quite the most wonderful things in the
world. But compared with the i'm
plements of q present day laboratory
the sensitiyeness Of all human organs
seems gross enough. 4 Photographic
plate, coupled with telescope, will re-
veal the presence Of millions Of stars
whose light does not affect the retina
In the least The microscope, too, with
its revelations Of the world Of the in
fnitely small. tells us how crude, after
all, is this most delicate Of the senses.
Indeed. we may iiken it to q piano
where only single octave, toward the
middle, sounds. From the ultra violet
to the lowest reaches Of the spectrum
is range Of some nine octaves Of light
vibrations, Of which. save for our new
mechanical senses. we should never
have been conscious Of but one.
The ear hears little Of what is going
on around us. By means Of micro
phone the tread Of fly sounds like the
tramp of cavalry. Our heat sense is
very vague. We need variation Of
at least one-ffth Of degree on ther-
mometer to realize any difference in
temperature. Professor Langley's lit
tie bolometer will note the difference Of
a millionth of a degree It is two hun
dred thousand times as sensitive as our
skin.-Carl Snyder in Harper's Maya

Story OF O French Cat.

This cat story comes from Pont Ste.
Maxance (Oise), and for such a small
place it is an extremely tall tale, says
the Paris Messenger. 1t would appear
that q resident in the place, who is an
enthusiastic angler, used to keep live
bait in small tank on his premises.
The angler also had q cat who natu-
rally was fond Of fish, raw or cooked.
This being so, his owner covered his
tank with wire netting to keep pussy
out Of temptation.
But the cat knew a trick or two and
went to the nearest refuse heap for
some fowl giblets which were provi-
denually lying there. These she took
to the tank, let them hang into the wa
ter from the netting and began fishing
on her own account. When the fish
nibbled at the bait. puss would catch it
with q nimble claw! The angler, no.
ticing the trick, threw the bait away,
but half an hour later puss was at it
again.
We hardly know which to admire
most, the cats ingenuity or that Of the
concocter Of the story.

Falling From, = Great Height.

It will be remembered that Mr..
Whymper, who had severe succession
Of falls once in the Alps, without losing
his consciousness, declares emphatical-
ly that as he bounded from one rock to
another he felt absolutely no pain. The
same thing happens on the battlefield.
The entrance of the bullet into the body
is not felt, and it is not till he feels the
blood flowing or limb paralyzed that
the soldier knows be is wounded.
Persons who have had several limbs
broken by a fall do not know which
limb is broken till they try to rise. At
the moment Of a fall the whole intel
lectual activity is increased to an ex-
raordinary degree. There is not a
trace Of anxiety One considers quick
" what will happen. This is by no
means the consequence Of 'presence Of
mind" 1t is rather the product Of alb
solute necessity. 4 solemn composure
takes possession Of the victim. Death
by fall is a beautiful one. Great
thoughts fill the victims soul. They
fall painlessly into great blue sky.

Drugstore Eumor.

A Philadelphia druggist has made the
following collection Of amusing missives
that have been sent to him from time
to time:

'My little girl has eat up lot Of but

Gi?te For the Mourners.

Some deliver into the musty old rec
ords Of Harvard has brought to light
an amusing provision with which one
Of the colleges eighteenth century
friends coupled what was for his time
a very generous bequest to the Cam
bridge university.
Mr.. Thomas Brattle was the tesla.
tors name, and his interest in Harvard
evidently extended to the individual
members of it's undergraduate body,
for after leaving s20o, then the equiv
alent Of about $1,000, to the college
for its general uses his will gives half
a crown to every student belonging to
it who should attend his funeral.
Unfortunately no account Of Mr..
Brattle's obsequies is extant, but there
can be little doubt that the occasion
was made solemn by the presence Of
large number Of "chief mourners" and
that good wishes for the deceased were
generally ard feelingly expressed.

NATURAL HISTORY.
There are forty-eight different kind

There are forty-eight different kinds
of house fly known and classified.
The pig is the only domestic animal
in which no case Of cancer has been
noted.
The Spanish mackerel is one Of the
fastest Of food fishes and cuts the wa
ter like yacht.
Fish swallow their food whole be-
cause they are obliged to keep contin-
ually opening and closing the mouth
for the purpose o. respiration.
Siamese cats, both in appearance and
character, closely resemble pug dogs.
Even their tails have the curious curl
so familiar in these stolid dogs.
Animals are found to be subject to
hypnotic influence. Lobsters, it is said,
can be hypnotized by standing them
on their heads FIVE or ten minutes.
There is no wild breed Of fowl to
which the Brahraa or Cochin can be
traced. The gamecock seems to be de-
scended from the Cingalese jungle
fowl.
The flesh fly produces about 10000
young in a season. The larvae are
hatched almost instantly from the egg
and at once begin their work Of de-
struction.

Her Vanity.

Some years ago marble sculptor
had his place Of business on Penn ave-
nue. near Ninth street. A business man
lost his wife, and he ordered a tomb
stone for her grave from the sculptor.
It was to be life size study Of her.
The figure was finished in due time and
placed in the cemetery.
Several years passed, and the figure
had not been paid for. The sculptor
was a man Of business, not given TO
sentiment, and he took the figure out
Of the cemetery, placing it on exhlol-
ton in a window at his place of busl-
ness. It naturally attracted a good deal
Of attention, and one day q woman IN
passing stopped to look at it. She rec
ognized the figure, but to make certain
went in and asked the sculptor and
found that she was correct.
The woman shook her head and SAID
sadly, "Ah. Mary Jane was always a
vain critter, but never though she
would 20 this far."-Pittsburg Press.

A CHURCH LIGHTHOUSE.
Charleston, S. c., Has the Only One
In the World.

| Charleston, s. c., Has the only one
In the World.
The only church in the world so far
as is known that is also lighthouse is
st. Philips church, Charleston, S. G.
st. Philips, which is one Of the oldest
| churches in America, is known as the
westminster abbey Of South Carroll
na," because within and about its walls
30 many distinguished men lie buried,
including John C. Calhoun. The history
Of the old church is closely interviewer
with that Of South Carolina, and many
Of the most celebrated events in the
history OF the province are connected
with it.
It is one Of the sights of Charleston,
and strangers are always taken to see
it and shown its graves and monu-
ments.
The most remarkable feature Of the
old church, however. is the fact that
its lofty steeple serves the purpose Of
lighthouse and is used to guide the
seafarer and mariner safely into the
port of Charleston. The use Of the stee-
pie as lighthouse dates back to 1894,
when the United States lighthouse de-
partment succeeded by dint Of repeated
efforts in inducing the vestry Of the
old church to allow lantern tc be
placed in the upper story OF the steeple
to be used as range light for vessels
entering the harbor through the jetdes
at its mouth.
The light used is very powerful and
is placed at an altitude Of about 12o
feet above the ground, so that it is
easily visible thirty miles at sea. Ships
making for Charleston harbor at night
always keep a sharp lookout for St.
Philips light and as soon as they sight
it get it into line with the beacon on
Fort Sumter and then make straight
away run for the mouth Of the jetties
and up through them into the harbor
Of Charleston.
st. Philips church steeple is consider
ed one of the handsomest architec-
turally in the world and always at
tracts the eye Of strangers entering
Charleston from the sea by its COM
manding height and artistic proper
tions.-St. Louis Republic.

A Eindoo Superstition.

When visits are exchanged by the
friends Of the Hindoo bride and groom
to complete arrangements for the wed
ding, great attention is paid to omens,
which are considered especially potent
then. For instance, if the groom's
messengers should meet a cat,
fox or a serpent they turn back and
seek a more propitious time for the
errand. After the brides father has
received the offer he must delay re-
plying until one of the ubiquitous liz
ards in his house has chirped.-Wo-
