ANIMAL ODDITIES.

Breton sheep are not much larger
than fair sized hare.
The mandarin duck is one Of the most
beautiful of aquatic birds.
The queen is always at the mercy of
the bees and is slave instead OF
ruler.
A beetle one-third the size of horse
would be able to pull against more
than dozen horses.
The greyhound, which can cover
mile in q minute and twenty-eight Sec

The giraffe, armadillo and porcupine
have no vocal cords and are therefore
mute. Whales and serpents are also
voiceleSs.
The glowworm lays eggs which are
themselves luminous. However, the
young Matched from them are not pos
sessed of those peculiar properties until
after the first transformation.
To escape from dangers which men

This instinct Of self destruction is
found only in the highest and lowest

HER FRENCH A FAILURE.
The Tragedy of q Backing Bottle
In the Latin Quarter.

"nhe Tragedy of a Backing Bottle
In the Latin Quarter.
She was spending her first month in
the Latin quarter Of Paris. She spoke
English auently, with a Boston accent:
also she spoke German, could make a
fair stagger at Italian and knew few
words Of Hindoostanee, but of French
not q syllable.
One morning she found herself In a
wrestling match with bottle Of
French shoe blacking. The pesky bot
tie, understanding that it had to deal
with an alien, refused to give up its
cork. She had no corkscrew Of her
own and did not know how to ask for
one, even if she dared suspect that her
next door neighbor might be possessed
of the luxury. The tine Of her pet fork
she had bent on the obstinate plug, the
point of her best penknife she had bro
ken off short, and nothing remained
except to throw the bottle out Of
window to get at it's contents. She de-
cided as a last resort to try breaking
the neck off the bottle. With a ''stove
lid litter she administered. several
cautious taps in the region Of the jugu-
lar of the obstinate neck. "Nothin'
doin'.' Then she tapped harder still,
and the plackins came. All over her
fingers it came, all over her light wool
en- skirt and over much Of the floor and
window sill.
She decided to have the skirt cleaned
and. packing it into bundle, tripped
off to an establishment where she
found embarrassment because she
could not understand questions. Final
IL she got the drift Of the conversation.
The cleaners wanted to know what
had caused the spot. Fortunately
bottle of shoe blacking' was standing
near by, and she pointed at this and
''ouid" and "ouid" until she left in
heightened spirits. feeling that she was
not helpless and that she had made the
cleaners understand. When the skirt
was duly returned the following week,
it was dyed black.-New York Tribune.

Fate ct Long Missing Explorer ana

Advices from Winnipeg, Manitoba
state that Rev. DR.. Farlies, Church
of England clergyman, arrived from
Yorl, factory, northwest British terri
,orv Saturday and brought authentic
information Of the fate of Explorer
Andre and his company. Two years
ago 1900 miles north of York a party
of Eskimos, under the leadership OF
"Old Huskie," saw the Andre balloon
a1isht on a plane Of snow in that VI
cinity. which is about two miles norm
Of Fort Churchill. Three men emerged
from the balloon and some OF "hus-
kie's" people approached them out OF
curiosity. ::
As they did so one Of Andres com
nanions fired off a gun. This is sig
nal tn uncivilized natives for battle
# is regarded as challenge, and al
most instantly the natives fell upon
the three explorers and massacred
them. .c,
Everything pertaining to their outllt
vsc carried away to the homes OF the
natives on the north borders OF the

New Pistol Law in Force.

The new pistol law, which went INTO
effect in South Carolina on July l, IS
remarkable statute in many ways. Ac-
cording to this law state dealers are
NOT permitted to sell revolver less
than 20 inches long and weighing less
than three pounds. Its aim is to pre-
vent the indiscriminate carrying OF
firearms, and while it will prohibit the
sale of smaller weapons, it will not
stop the public from going armed as
heretofore.
SAMPLES of the new guns have been
nut on the market. Charleston deal
ers however, say that they will not
handle the new article. for the reason
that No sales can be made. Estimates
also show that a gun made according
to the required length will weigh near
" fve mounds and will shoot a 90
calibre bullet. The rebounds from the
shot would be so powerful that per-
son could not hold the weapon IN one
hand and it would be as dangerous
almost for the man firing it as for the
man at whom the weapon was directed
The inevitable result of the law Will
he the opening of blind tigers for the
sale of pistols, just as the state mas
hundreds Of blind tigers for the sale OF
lisuor. Local hardware firms have
Withdrawn their old stock. and not
single pistol can be bought in Charles
ton legally.
