THE PLAYING-CARD SUPPLY.
It Amountsa to Ten Cards Year foE Each Inhabitant in the
 Country.

One of the internal revenue taxes provided by congress to meet the ex- pense of the Spanish war was a tax of two cents on each pack of cards manufactured in. the United States. The usual pack contains S2 cards, or, with joker, 53, but for the sake of uniformity the number was fixed by congress at 54, says the New York Sun.
 The government revenues from the war. tax on playing cards amounted to about $1,OoO for each working day, and assuming that all the packs were full decks the average number manu- factured in each year was 15,ooo,oo0 packs, or 7so ,00O,o cards. The. popu- lation of the United States is, approx imately, 76,OO0 900, and there were ten cards manufactured zach year for each man, woman and child in the United States.
 To the total revenue of S3OO,0 ,0o0 from playing cards, Ohio contributed $140, 1000, New York following with So0,0OO, and Michigan and Illinois with $4o,0o0 each These four states have practical monopoly of playing card making in the United States.

WALK ON wHfTE-HoT STONES.
RemarI1abLe Feat That Is Performed by Eli Islanders With-
 out Injury.

Col Gudgeon, British resident at ans who have performed the remark able feat of walking on the white hot stones with the Fiji fire walkers, says. an article on "Fire Walkers of Fiji" in Leslie's Monthly In a communica- fion to the Polynesian society he says;
 T can hardly give you the sensa- tions, but can say this, that I knew quite we'll I was walking on red-hot stones, and could feel the heat, yet I was not burned. I felt something re- sembling slight electric shocks, both at the time and afterwards, but that is all. I do not know that should rec omend every one to try it, A man must have inspiration to do it; if he has not, it wilk be too late when he is on the hot stones of Tama-ahi-roa.
 ITO show you the heat of the stones, quite an hour afterwards some one re- marked to the priest that the stones would not be hot enough to cook the food. His only answer was to throw his green branch on the oven and in a nuarter of a minute it was blazing. Ny feet also were very tender. The really funny thing is that, though the stones were hot enough an hour after- wards to burn my green branches of the Ii (dracoena) the very tender skin of my feet was not even hardened by the fire.''

ndence ana adJured Prince Florizel to reconsider his intention.
 Tt is but farce," he answered, land think I can promise you, gen tlemen, that it will not be long a-play- ing"
 ''Your highness will be careful not to overreach.'' said Colonel Geraldine
 Geraldine" returned the prince, ''did you ever know me to fail in debt of honor? I owe you this mans life, and you shall have it.''
 The president at last satisfied him self with one of the rapiers and signi- fled his readiness by gesture that was not devoid of rude nobility. The nearness of peril and the sense of courage, even to this obnoxious villain, lent an air of manhood and certain grace.
 The prince helped himself at random to sword.
 Colonel Geraldine and Dr. Noel" he said, twill have the goodness to await me in this room. I wish no personal friend of mine to be involved in this transaction. Major O'Rooke, you are a man Of some years and settled rep- | utation let me recommend the presi- dent to your good graces. Lieutenant Rich will be so good as to lend me his attention; young man cannot have too much experience in such af- fairs'

 ssT+ l.. xv,n9J q, ,.o4,,r,,o "a ,Ko,;,, oa rrIo.l T shall hope to stand your friend in more important circumstances.
 And so saying he led the way out of the apartment and down the kitchen stairs.
 The two men who were thus left alone threw open the window and leaned out straining every sense to catch an indication of the tragical events that were about to follow. The rain was now over, day had almost come and the birds were piping in the shrubbery and on the forest trees of the garden. The prince and his con- panions were visible for a moment as they followed an alley between two towering thickets, but at the first cor ner clump of foliage intervened, and they were again concealed from view. This was all that the colonel and the physician had an opportunity to see, and the garden was so vast and the place of combat evidently so remote from the house that not even the noise of sword. play reached their ears.
 He has taken him toward the grave said Dr. Noel, with a shudder.
 God" cried the colonel, "God de- fend the right.''
 And they awaited the event in si- lence, the doctor shaking with fear, the. colonel in an agony of sweat. Many
