Warpath buy two admissions TO the
one place, at q quarter each, before
they are aware of the trick.
In the absence of anything like
surging multitude outside, the most
strenuous efforts of the Arabs failed
to pull in 100 persons before an hour
had elapsed, though everyone on en-
ytering had been assured that per-
Torrance would begin within five min
utes After the manner of these ORR
entail shows, when an entertainment
did begin, it consisted of a few obvious
tricks in necromancy and some athlet-
ic feats, closing in seven minutes with
a wriggle dance by a tawny ArabiNl
girl-a mere sample of what those
would see who went into the Cairo the
atre so said the lecturer. OF course
there was a second admission fee for
the theatre, and of course everyone
present, being DESTROYS of seeing the
very wickedest that the Warpath af-
forded, paid the price. Now, it is very
well to say that seekers of vicious
sights are entitled to no sympathy
when they are taken in; and it is to
the credit of the fairs management
that these couchee dancers are COM
PEELED to wear opaque robes, so that

in an agitation of their draperies; but
it does seem to me that such fooling
with the patience of visitors, and such
juggling with their time and money,

1t was under the evaporation of
such treatment in some of the Warpath
shows that 400 uniformed members of
national guard regiments formed in
column and took possession of the
Warpath. They made no demOnstra-
ton against the fair-value shows, but
set out to shake up the SnideS and
fakes. Their first stop was at the ORR
entail concession which I have de-
scribed, and for admission to which
most of them, no doubt, had been
tricked to pay twice over. They had
hardly gained possession, intent on
wrecking it, when the POwhattan
guards of the fair came to the defense
of the Orientdls. There was d Scrim-
mage, in which the captain of the
guards was felled with a stone a lead
er of the militia was cut dangerously
with a sabre, and for awhile there was
the very deuce to pay. Of course. the

the question which of those ships

bound, was sent out from the James
river into Hampton Roads to destroy
some alI-wooden Union vessels; that
it was well along in its job when there
came from Chesapeake bay the iron
turreted Monitor which Ericsson had
lust built: and that these first two
ironclads that had ever f1Oated fought
each other to finish; but can you ap-
portion the victory and defeat? Well,

The Milk In the coeoanut.

Every boy knows the three eyes to be found in one end of a cocoanut, and many boy has Eored these eyes out, or one or two of them, with the small blade of pocketknife so as to get at the milk in the cocoanut. which he has then drained out into a cup or drunk direct from the cocoanut itsefe But there is more fascinating way still of getting at the milk in the cocoa nut. By this other method the cocoa nut is opened at the other end from the eyes. The cocoanut is struck all around gently and repeatedly with a hammer, or stone will do, at q dis tance of about one-third of the way down from the top, about where the arctic circle would be on a globe. A continual gentle tapping will finally crack the shell of the nut all around {; not in line exactly on the circle per- haps, but pretty near it. Sometimes it cracks shell and meat of the nut. too so that both can be lifted off together; sometimes 1t cracks out only shell cap at the top. which is lifted of. and the cap of meat underneath is then cut out around with a knife. And then there you are with the white lined CO., coanut cup to drink from.
