Thieves and Bibles.

Chicago Tribune.
Bibles are said by detectives to be
more rarely stolen than any other
objects. This is not because Bibles
are worthless to a thief, but because
few criminals are sufficiently deprav-
ed to steal the good book. A detec-
tive said recently that in an impor-
tant case which he had followed up
some years ago thief had entered
the house, stolen some valuable jew
elry and left untouched a Bible bound
in white chicken skin and studded
with pearls. The detective caught
the thief. and the man who had been
robbed, a dealer in curios, visited his
despoiler in jail, took an interest in
him because he had not taken the BIZ
bic and eventually reformed him and
got him a good job.
II knew" the thief said, "that if I
took that Bible it would do me harm
and if I didn't take it it might do me
good. | let it alone, and now, thank
heaven, I'm an honest and right
eous man"
The detective added that in another
case where thief had stolen a Bible
the book had been returned. An
other thing few thieves will take"
he added, "is a child's saving bank. J"

THE COLOMBIANS.
They Are Hospitable People and
Like Good Living.

The ColOmbians are a hospitable
people and receive strangers cordially
1t is customary for a stanger to send
card to those whose acquaintance he
desires, and etiquette demands that
the recipients of the cards call within
a few days.
The dining table of the rich are
spread with fine linen and ser with
handsome cut glass and china.
Among their beverages, in addition
to wines, are cebada, barley water;
orchada, which contains almond juice
and sugar; agrass, the juice of un-
ripe grapes; naranjada, orangeade
ard preparation of chocolate thick
as Cruel. A dish for invalids is sopa
de pan. A raw egg is broken upon
a slice of toast, and a beef broth is
poured over it. A breakfast often
consists of several courses-for in
stance, fruit, poached eggs, with
stewed tomatoes and rice; fish, chops
fried in eggs and herbs and a toritilla
con seso, brain omelet, sweet pota-
toes or other vegetable and coffee.
Saffron is favorite havoring for
soup. Chicken or game pies contain
a variety of vegetables, hard boiled
eggs and other ingredients. A COM
mon dish among the poor is stew
called sin coche. Another standby
is rice and red beans Rice is cook
ed in lard, wit little tassado (dried
beef) for relish, is flesh Of the in
uana, species of land lizard, is re-
garded as delicacy and is said to re-
semble chicken. The natives slit
the sides of living female iguanas and
take from them strings of eggs as
large as plums. They hang these
eggs in the sun and dry them for flu
ture consumption.

ANIMAL STRIKERS.
Both Birds and Beasts Occasionally
Refuse to Work.

Both birds and beasts occasionally
60 on strike according to observers.
A herd of horses will bunch togeth-
er, neglect their food, become restive,
neigh and rub noses when in a field.
The outcome is that the herd will not
allow themselves to be saddled or
harnessed and will chase and attempt
to kick the attendants. Female birds
take tantrums and refuse to do the
housework They desert their nests
and leave their eggs to become cold
and barren The male naturally be-
comes greatly concerned, but with the
bird and beast creation the male will
never attack the female, so there is
no remedy. Warblers and starlings
are given greatly to these strikes.
A species of black ants have little
yellow ants which do most of their
work for them. Occasionally the yell
low species will go on strike. Their
food supply is cut off, but if that does
not avail the strikers are attacked or
another lot of yellow ants are secur-
ed.
Even the rabbit is hardened strik-
er. In rabbit colonies the stronger
rabbits do most of the burrowing,
and as often as perhaps once in two
years these become discontented and
refuse to work.

ACTING WITOUT ORDERS.
General Grants Tribute to General
Sheridan's Judgment.

Senator Hoar in his "Reminiscenc-
es says that at dinner where Gen.
eral Grant and other distinguished
men we're present Commodore Alden
remar ked that there was nothing be
disliked more than a subordinate who
always obeyed orders. What is that
you are say commodore?" said Pres
ident Grant across the table. The
commodore repeated what he had
said. There is a good deal of truth
in what you say" said General Grant.
"One of the virtues of General Sheri-
dan was that he knew when 20 act
without orders. Just before the sur-
render of Lee, General Sheriden cap
tured some dispatches, from which he
learned that Lee had ordered his sup
plies to a certain place. l was on the
other side of the river, where he
could get no communication from me
until the next morning. General
Sheridan pushed on at once without
orders, got to the place fifteen min
utes before the enemy and captured
the supplies. After the surrender was
concluded the first thing General Lee
asked me for was rations for his men.
I issued to them the same provisions
which Sheridan, as most men would
have done, had waited for orders
from me Lee would have got off"
Senator Hoar adds this comment:
II listened with wonder at the gen.
erous majesty which, before that
brilliant company, could remove one
of the brightest laurels from his brow
and place it on the brow of Sheri-
dan"

When Two Rainbows are Seen.

When two rainbows are somtimes
seen at once, one outside the other,
the inner or primary bow, as it is CALI
ed is always the brighter, and the
red band of clor is always on its out
side. The outer or secondary bow is
much fainter in color, and the red
band is always on its inside. This is
because in the primary bow the suns
rays are only reflected once, while in
the secondary bow they are reflected
twice, which makes them fainter in
clor and turns them upside down. In
one rainbow we see the rays of the
SUN entering the raindrops at the top
and reflected to the eye from the
bottom, while in the other We see the
rays entering the raindrops at the
bottom and reflected from the top,
whenuce they reach the eye.

The Veil in Persia.

J. D. Rees, a lecturer on Persia,
says that the wells worn by Persian
ladies are morse of privilege than
punishment Screened behind it wo-
man may walk wherever she pleases,
and even her own husband dare not
question her movements. Doubtless
many Persian ladies make the most
of their opportunities. The Persians,
as a rule, do not think it right to
take wine, but as nearly all their poe
try is in praise of the flowing bowl
it will be inferred that they frequent
ly do violence to their conscience.
Occasionally, however, they are seiz-
ed with remorse, whereupon they de-
stroy the wine of their Armenian
neighbors.

BOILING WATER.
Why a Redhot Poker Does Not
Cause it to Hiss.

London Answers.
If a redhot poker be thrust into
cold water it Kisses and sputters; if
into boiling water, there is no COM
motion
When in the first experiment cold
water comes in contact with the hot
iron there is sudden and explosive
generation of steam, which causes
the LIQUID to be scattered with hiss
sing noise, consequent upon the
bursting Of innumerable bubbles.
When. on the other hand, poker
is thrust into boiling water, which is
already freely giving forth steam,
the introduction of the hot iron by
still further assisting steam produc-
ton causes the poker to become at
once surrounded by sheath OF vap-
or, which effectually prevents the wa
ter from coming into actual contact
with the metal
This sheath of vapor is compara-
lively a bad conductor of heat, so
that but little passes from the iron to
the water. There is no commotion,
and the poker can be withdrawn still
glowing brightly.

senate refuses to agree. AS a result
the two houses have appointed COM
mittees OF free conference and it is
the opinion of great many that the
resolution will die in free conference.
If it should it is probable that anoth-
er resolution of similar character
will be introduced at once
So many different bills have been
presented to change the dispensary
law that it is not expected any ma
terial change will be made in the dis
pensary law at this session. There
must be at least a dozen different
propositions to amend the law.
Senator Blease has introduced a
bill to require the Southern railway
and the c., N. & L. to build union
depot at Newberry.
Mr.. Earhardl's bill to abolish social
clubs has an unfavorable report from
the committee and will in all proba-
bility die on the calendar.
The Parr Shoals Power company
bill has been reported again but has
a minority unfavorable report. 1t is
probable that the bill will now be
passed.
The compulsory education bill is
still on the senate calendar and the
probability is it will pass the senate
but its fate in the house is altogether
problematical.
Mr.. Blease's bill to reduce passen-
ger fare on the railroads to 2 and
one half cents mile has nor yet
come up for discussion.
The Calhoun county question has
not come up either. The question
seems to hinge on the question
whether or not Greenwood and
Eddgeheld counties Aave not been re-
duced the constitutional area.

BILL DEMANDING UNION
DEPOT FOR NEWBERRY
NEWS FROM THE LAWMAK-
ERS ASSEMBLED.
First Half Session Fnished-only
Eight New Laws Enrolled
Lots Of Talking.

Lots Of Talking.
Columbia, January 3o-The legis
Tature has now finished the first half
of the session. It will require some
hard work TO dispose of the five hun
dred bills that have been presented
in the two houses.
Only eight new laws have been en-
rolled for ratification and most Of
them relate TO local matters.
Both branches of the legislature
have more talking than usual and
they like to near themselves talk.
The biennial sessions measure has
been up and the judiciary committee
reports that that the resolution as
adopted at the last session is detec-
tive and there is serious doubt if 1t
can be ratified without meeting with
obstacles which may defeat the
whole scheme. The report Of this
committee is published in full in an
other column. AnothAr resoldtion
has been adopted to appoint special
committee to take the matter up and
see if anything can be done at this
session to ratify the actions OF the
people in voting for biennial session.
The probability is that nothing will
be done at this session. AS matter
of fact my opinion is that nothing
will be saved by biennial sessions. II
the session was limited to thirty days
instead of forty then there might be
something saved to the people. And
everything could be done in thirty
days as we'll as forty. When the legis-
lature met in November it always ad-
iourned by Christmas which made
the session about thirty days ands as
much was accomplished as at present.

The bill to prevent frauds in prl-
mary elections has passed the house
and has been sent TO the senate.
The bill to change the South Caro-
liza collge into the University OF
South Carolina has been defeated.
The friends of the citadel academy
feared it was an indirect blow at this
institution and they united with those
who were opposed to the scheme and
thus the measure was defeated. There
were those who felt that it was only
an entering wedge Of the friends OF
the college for large appropriation
without enlarging the scope OF the
institution. If all the state colleges
could be organized into a university
then the state could have a unlver-
sity not only in name but in fact. we
could then have university which
would not have its superior IN this
country. This would require good
many changes and it is doubtful If
the divergent interests could be got
ten together.
An effort is being made to abolish
the department of immigration and
commerce. It was defeated on Fri
day at length and some think If the
vote had been taken at that time the
bill to abolish it would have passed
the house. When the bill came up
last session to establish it | opposed
it but the majority being against that
judgement we would now favor the
continuance of the department in Or
der to give an opportunity to see
what it could accomplish. The de-
partment has but been organized and
gotten started to work and should
be given a trial If the bill should
pass the house the probability is it
would be killed in the senate.
