WISDOM OF ANIMALS.
The Ape of ApuIeius-A Dog Actor
Wise Dogs and Elephants.

Wise Dogs and Elephants.
Apuleius says that in the spring
fetes of Isis, the forerunners of the
Roman carnival, he saw a monkey
with a straw hat and Phrygian tunic
But monkeys do not seem to have
of all the animal performers were Of
course the dogs, and one Snowman
had the ingenious idea Of making a
dog act a part in comedy. The eff
fects Of a drug were tried on him, the
plot turning on the suspicion that the
was only narcotic. The dog took
the piece Of bread dipped in the liquid,
swallowed it and began to reel and
stagger till he finally fell on the
ground.
At the right moment he began to
move very slightly as if waking out
Of a deep sleep. Then he raised his
head, looked around, jumped up and
ran joyously to the proper person.
The remark that animals do not grow
| wiser with age is contradicted by the
habit Of elephants, noticed even in
ancient times, of making the young
ones cross a ford first. The officer who

PEARL FISHERIES.
How the Gems Are Obtained and Dis
posed of In CeyIOn.

Since Keats told how 1.-THE Ceylon
diver held his breath and went, all
naked, to the hungry shark" many
poets have exhausted the resources of
their imagination in trying to describe
the wonderful pearl fisheries of Cey-
Ion. A few facts about them may be
of interest, if only as an antidote to so
much poetry
The pearl fisheries are the property
of the government of Ceylon. The
divers are paid no wages, but receive
one-third of the oysters they bring up,
the remaining -two-thirds being taken
by a government agent and sold at
public auction to speculative buyers,
who gather from all parts of the ORR
ent. The pearl fishery usually lasts
from thirty to forty days, but does not
take place every year. If it did the
oyster banks would soon be ruined
Sometimes several years afe allowed to
pass by without a fishery.
The diving is done after primitive
fashion, and the stories told about the
marvellous length of time the divers
will remain under water are quite I'M
founded. The record is 1 minute 40
seconds
The auction, which lasts for several
days, is one of the most interesting
sights to be seen in Asia. The oysters
are sold in lots of 1000, and Of course
the purchaser is buying "a pig in a
poke" There may be no pearls in any
of his oysters or the first one he opens
may give him a fortune. This risk APP
peals to the gambling spirit of the
orient, and pretty nearly all the races
from the Persian gulf to Japan are
represented at the SALE
The prices paid usually start low on
the first day. Then if the buyers have
found pearls in fair quantities bidding
is keen, and the prices jump skyward
One year they varied from lbs. I'D. per
1000 on the first day to f12 It's. 1Od.
On the second.
It is remarkable that the fisheries
are still so profitable, for there are
historical records that they were work
ed there 800 years before the birth of
Christ, and it is impossible to say how
many years before that date

Coal Mans Chief Worker.

Coal has become mans chief worker,
and horse labor and human manual
labor are slowly being pushed aside
In the great transformation it has
been brain power that has triumphed
over brute strength. Man first sought
to shift his burden to the backs of
the beasts Of the field, and the horse
became his patient friend and assist
ant, but now he seeks to harness the
elemental forces of nature to do his
bidding. The burden is thus lightened
without cruelty to any living creature

bors increased, but steadily decreased

PRESSED TO DEATH.
Fearful Punishment That Obtained
Under old English Law.

On0ef Wiz EAEs11Sn 1If1NWs
Under the old English law if a pris-
oner stood mute and failed to plead to
the Indictment a jury was impaneled
to determine whether his conduct came
from obstinacy or from natural i'm
pediment. According to Blackstone, if
| nately mute and the indictment was
for high treason it was settled that
his silence was equivalent to a convic-
ton and that judgment and execution
| should follow. This same rule applied
to petit larceny and misdemeanors, but
upon appeal or indictments for other
| felonies or petit treason, according to
the ancient law, the prisoner was not
deemed convicted; but, because Of his
obstinacy, he received 1.-THE terrible
sentence of penance or peine" and was
pressed to death.
| Blackstone thus describes this pun
ishment: THAT the prisoner be re-
manded to the prison from whence he
came and put in a low, dark chamber
and there be laid on his back on the
bare floor, naked unless decency for
bids; that there be placed upon his
body as great weight of iron as he
could bear and more; that he should
| have no sustenance, save only on the
| first day three morsels of the worst
| bread, and on the second day three
| drafts of standing water that should
be nearest the prison door, and in this

A STORY OF GEROME.
The Master Painter, the New Student
and q Practical Joke.

and Practical Joke.
A number ct years ago a poverty
stricken palmer, since famous and
prosperous, went to Paris from a coun-
try village and entered the studio Of
Gerome at the Ecole des Beaux Arts.
The new students first day CHANGED to
be criticism day." and the older stu
dents, finding themselves cheated out
of their customary boisterous hazing
by this circumstance, resolved to have
their fun in an indirect fashion.
Accordingly they took the novice
aside and impressed upon him in the
most friendly and confidential way i'm
aginable that he was under the obliga-
ton of giving tip to the professor
when he criticised his work. Incredu-
lous at first, the callow youth let him
self be convinced and promised to do
the proper thing His means were so
small that he awaited hR turn with all
i'll concealed anxiety which those in
the plot relished keenly. When his
turn came he conyulsed the room by
slipping a half franc piece into the pro-
fessor's hand
Gerome was too familiar with the
practical jokes of the Beaux Arts not
to comprehend the situation and had
much ado to keep his countenance. He
succeeded, however, and blurted out
with the grufness which he assumed
so admirablyy
sWhat does this mean? You'll do
well to come to see me some fine morn
ing and straighten this thing out"
The bewildered pupil interpreted the
admonition literally and presented him
self at Gerome's private studio two
days later. Gerome received him like
a father, led him on to confess his des-
titution and to unburden himself Of his
hopes and fears, gave him good coun-
sci and restored to him his half franc
piece in the form Of a twenty franc
gold piece.
