Aounsel. to admit several witnesses in the
room together. with whom Mr.. Gardner
also appeared. Miss DAILY protested against
this action. maintaining that it had the eff

the committee reconsider its action, Miss

A City ON the Clins.

Precisely why the town of Bonifacio,
In Corsica, is built to the sheer edge
Of the cliff which forms the sea front
age Of that part of the island Is ques-
tion always asked by the traveller who
views Bonifacio for the first time, and
he reiterates his question when he OBJ
serves, upon visiting the environs Of
the place, that there Is plenty Of room
for the town to have spread out in an
inland direction. The early Corsicans
apparently thought that farm land was
worth more than city real estate and
so crowded their dwellings to the dizzy
edge of their 200 foot precipice. Ones
first impression is that these houses,
with their walls on vertical plane
with the cliff, were purposely SO situ-
ated that the body Of victim Of
dark vendetta murder might be con-
yeniently dropped out of the window
into the sea beneath, with no one the
wiser. Certainly there is suggestion
Of romance and mystery in the aspect
of the town. 1t forms, at any rate, one

4 Darink wasp.

Some wasps live In part upon honey,
which they collect from the most open
petaled flowers, md thus to a very
moderate extent they may be regarded
IN the light Of flower fertilizers. Kirk
land says In the first volume of the
American Naturalist that '.the paper
hornet (Vespa maculata) often enters
my nucleus hives when am. rearing
italian queen bees and captures the
young queen In the midst Of her little
colony, usually just after she has CON-
menced her first laying. / have seen
this depredator enter the small hive,
drag out the queen and fly away with
her to the woods" page 52). Some Of
the species OF the genus polistes store
mp honey which Is poisonous, from the
fact that 1t has been collected from
poisonous flowers. They are found in
South America, where also species Of
the genus chartergus occur wasps
that make very remarkable and
tough nest, with funnel shaped combs
inside, arranged one inside of another,
nest fashion, but not In contact ex-
cept at their points of suspension. At
the apexes of these cones occur the
apertures Of entrance for the inmates
to pass up among the conical tiers.

The Battle of RedOnda.

Not far from st. Thomas, a matter of
perhaps a hundred miles, was fought
the most wonderful naval battle in all
history. The Dutch admiral detected
the enemy in the early morning, when
the sea was covered with thick mist,
and his guns opened fire at once with
out warning. The fire was returned
with interest, the ocean fairly quiver-
ing with spasms caused by the shock
Of frequent discharges: Somehow or
other the enemy's shots, which sound.
ed like bombardment, seemed to fall
short or go wide Of the mark, for not
even splash of ball was heard, and
the Dutch ships remained unscathed.
On the other hand, the Dutch could not
see the terrible execution their guns
were doing until nearly the middle of
the forenoon, when the fog lifted, re-
vealing to their astonished gaze not the
vessels of the enemy, but great rock
standing out Of the sea. They had been
firing at it for five hours, and the sound
Of the return shots they heard was the
echo from the solid wall of granite.
They named the place Redonda, which
means sent, rolled or driven back, and
Redonda it is to this day.

rown Without Horses S. WI eeI..


Tovvn Without Horses 81 wheels.
The town OF Funchal, lii the Ma.
deira islands, Is town with no horses
and no wheeled vehicles. In travelling
about one either drives in a sledge or:
Is carried in a hammock. The streets
and adjacent roads are paved with
small and curiously smooth cobble-
stones, and from the hrst 1t was found
that runners were better than wheels
both for speed ind comfort. For In,
stance. when you come to q hill the
oxen draw your sled to tho top and
are then unhitched. Your driver then
proceeds to toboggan your conveyance
gently down the other side, while the
team trots on behind. Horses are not
available In Funchal, ~as the nature OF
the cobblestone roads would soon ruin
their feet This is why the OK, with
his flexible hoof, Is the draft animal Of
Funchal. For expeditions into the
country the hammock is used. This is
slung on pole, carried on the shoul-
ders of two men, and Is perhaps the
most comfortable conveyance in the
world Jar and no need to guide it.

Bear Huntlnr.

Bear hunting, with the assistance of
guides supplied with a we'll trained
pack of hounds, may be satisfactory If
merely the killing of them is desired,
but it certainly is no sport and de-
serves not even to be ranked with trap
ping bears, as in the latter case the
hunter must possess at least some
knowledge of the quarry's habitat and
habits. Unlike fox, bear, when
once found by the hounds, stands no
chance whatever Of escaping, and
there would be just as much sport in
shooting the animals in park or pen
as to kill run to bay bear. And,
while this truth applies to mountain
lions also, there Is not even the ex-
cuse Of the animals destructiveness,
which is applicable as far as the lat
ter is concerned.-Fielda and Stream.

OriEin OF the Balloon.


The word balloon means "a large
ball" To Montgolfier of Annonay,
France, the invention of the balloon Is
credited. 1t is said that he was led to
turn his attention to balloon making
from the following incident: A French
laundress, wishing to. dry a petticoat
quickly, placed It on basket work
frame over a stove. To prevent the
heat from escaping by the opening at
the top of the petticoat she drew the
belt strings closely together and tied
them. Gradually the garment dried
and became lighter, and as the stove
continued to give out heat and rarely
the air concentrated under the basket
work frame the petticoat began to
move and finally rose in the air. This
80 astonished the laundress that she
ran to her neighbors and asked them
to come and witness the strange sight
Montgolfer was among those that
came In. The petticoat suspended In
midair suggested greater things to
him, and he returned home with
something to think about" He at
once began studying works on differ
ent kinds Of atmosphere, and the In
vention Of the balloon was the result

Tale of a Coat.

The clawhammer, or evening coat,
has many oddities of cut. These Oddi-
ties were once essentials. There was,
In fact, time when every idiosyn-
Grassy of the clawhammer served some
useful purpose. The cutoway front of
the coat, for instance, was originally
cut away so that the wearer when on
horseback would not he incommoded.
The two buttons at the back were for
fastening up the tails out of harms
way, each tail having In the past a
buttonhole at Its end. The sleeves,
with their false cuffs, are relics of the
days when sleeves were always turned
back and therefore We're always made
with cuffs that unbuttoned.- The col
lar, with it's wide notches, is a sur
vival Of the old collar that was notch
ed in order that its wearer could turn
it up conveniently in cold or stormy
weather. The dress coat, in word, is
a patchwork Of relics-relics once es-
sential, but now Of no use on earth -

The Rain In the Woods.

The lamentable effects Of the gener-
al destruction Of forests are now suf-
ticlently recognized In all civilized
countries. Such destruction invites
devastating floods in mountain streams
and causes the surrounding land to
dry up. Forests act like vast con-
denslng screens, They preserve a
moist atmosphere about them, atten-
uate the force Of torrential downfalls.
promote a more gradual melting Of the
snow In early spring and protect the
soil against too rapid evaporation.
And yet the manner In which forests
act their beneticent part is not exactly
such rs might be supposed. They pre-
vent large part Of the rain that falls
from reaching the soil at all. 1t is es-
timated that in European climates the
forests evaporate directly or transpire
physiologlcally four-ffths Of the rain
that fails upon them. Thus the forest
atmosphere is no less important than
the forest soil in equalizing the cli-
matte conditions of a country.-Youth's 8

Iix,,p1n Coral Houses.

The church built of coral Is one Of
the curiosities of the Isle of Maize,
one of the Seychelles islands, In the
Indian ocean,. The Seychelles islands,
which are supposed by many to be the
site Of the Eden of the Old Testament,
form an archipelago Of ia islands and
are situated about 1,40O miles east of
Alden and 1000 miles Of Zanzibar.
They rise steeply out Of the sea, culmi-
mating In the Isle Of Mahe, which Is
about 5000 feet above the level Of the
ocean and is nearly the center Of the
group. All these Islands are Of coral
growth. The houses are built Of a
species of massive coral hewed into
square blocks, which glisten like white
marble and show themselves to the
utmost advantage in the various tinted
green of the thick tropical palms,
whose immense fernlike leaves give
pleasant and much needed shade. These
palms grow as high as 100 feet or more,
overlapping both the houses and the
coral built church. They line the sea-
shore and cover the mountains, form
ing in many places extensive forests.

revolution he lent the manuscript to
his friend John Stuart Mill. One even

the dismal information, gasped out in
almost inarticulate words, that with

ing it so much waste paper, had burned
