What is the Enulish Throne?

The English throne-what is it? Is II
the stone chair of Westminster abbey
That Is only occupied once by each
king or queen, and that only ut the cor
onation ceremony. Is It the chair of
state in the house Of lords or the re-
ccption chair Mt buckingham palace or
the sumptuous gilt thing which the king
uses at Windsor when he receives the
foreign ENJOYS? IL Is an interesting
question, which some people would like
TO have answered. Most everybody,
however. has come TO the conclusion
that in the majority Of countries the
throne is merely symbol, and the ex-
prcssions che has succeeded To the
throne" and speeches from the throne"
are only metaphors.

A BATTLE FOR A HAT.
And How the Victor In the Struggle
Lost the Trophy.

And How the Victor In the Struggle
Lost the Trophy.
Verdi had stepped from an incom-
Ing train In Genoa once at time when
Marquis di Rudini, the Italian premier,
was I'm the station The marquis rec
ognized the musician and requested
the station master to introduce him.
He greeted Verdi warmly, congratulate
ed him on his fine health and wished
him many more years Of life.
After taking leave OF the premier
Verdi went to the station buffet and on
returning TO his train forgot his hat
This was an opportunity not TO be lost
by two admirers of the musician. They
had been watching him long, and now
they simultaneously sprang for the
hat Both reached IL at once, one
seizing one side OF the brlm and the
other the opposite. A lively combat
cnsucd, and the two swaycd backward
and forward In their desire TO retain
the treasure. The lady came off vie
torious. "Ahw she exclaimed trium-
phantly. "Now I've got II, and intend
TO keep it,
Her surprise was only cqualed by
his dismay when gentleman who
had been watching the conflict for
some time stepped forward with the
remark, But this is my hat" A loud
laugh rang out from the onlookers, a
laugh in which even the combatants
were fain To join. The hat changed
hands. and the lady changed color
when moment or two later she saw
the trap into which she had fallen.
IL was the hat Of the great composer,
and the stranger had secured II 10y an
unjustiflable ruse.

TRAVELLING IN EUROPE.
What IL Means to Ride Second Class on
the Railroads.

A delusion of the guidebooks is tho
advice TO ride second class on the rail
roads of Europe. 1t is often pointed
out that first class and second class are
frequently but divisions Of the same
car, and this makes n great impression
on the inexperienced traveller, particu-
larly IL his IAirse is limited. Landing
Mt Plymouth, southampton, Havre,
Cherbourg, Liverpool, you are at once
conveyed to London or Paris on steam
or trains" under the same excellent
conditions that have prevailed on your
trip, but thereafter you are at your
own resources, and If you are wise you
will not only travel first class, but you
will see to il that your seat Is always
engaged well ahead. If you travel sec
ond class between cities that CORE
spond TO New York and Philadelphia,
say where intercourse Is frequent and
numerous, you will most likely have
to stand up in all second class com
partments. To get second class seat
between Vienna and Budapest for ex-
ample, is about like boarding train
for Coney Island at Brooklyn bridge on
summer Sunday afternoon, and II
you do get a seat somebody else sand
wiches and sausages on your lap.
Another point TO be remembered Is
that In Europe you cannot engage n
whole sleeping compartment for your
self, as you can here You have TO
show ticket for each berth. There
fore IL behooves the person travelling
alone Mt night to seek out before ar.
ranging the trip some suitable com.
panion or for parties Of three or FIVE or
any odd number TO make similar pro
visions.--Travel Magazine.

A Curious Bird,

As to food, the weka is omnivor-

one of his own offspring, l remem-
Der an instance of this when our
dog unfortunately killed a young
bird which was too small to eat.
The parents made a decent show of
grief over their loss and then, be-
ing quite sure that the little one
was dead, proceeded to eat up its
still warm remains. In camp wekas
are useful as scavengers, but they
are incorrigible thieves, trying to
take away everything at all white
or glittering, and, as they are able
to move a weight of two or three
pounds, it may be well imagined
that careful lookout has to be kept.
The glance of mingled triumph and
contempt which q weka gives over
his shoulder as he walks off with
your pipe is inimitable, and his
whole attitude would make a most
laughable picture if well drawn

A Curious Test For Beer.

At Munich an ancient custom
still obtains of the burgomasters
and town councillors going annually
to Salvador cellar in order to test
the quality of the beer consumed
by the people. The test is very
primitive one. The officials attend
in their leathern breeches, and beer
having been poured over the wood
en- benches the civic dignitaries
plump down upon them. While
there seated they sing an ancient
song, the same that their predeces-
sors have sung for ages, and in or
der to subject the beer to fair
test they sit long enough to sing
the song through three times. Then
they essay to rise up. If now they
find their breeches sticking to the
benches the beer is voted good and
sound. Having stood this test, the
beer goes through the formality of
being tasted, and then its sale to
the public is duly sanctioned.

THE SPERM WHALE.
Some interesting Facts About This
Monster of the Sea.

The common sperm whale, or
cachalot, has a very wide geograph-
ical range. 1t is said that it inhab-
Its all seas except those near the
poles. 1t is much sought after be-
cause it furnishes us with sperma-
ceti, ambergris and much fine oil.
As a rule, it is from seventy to
eighty feet in length. It's head is
immense, being equal to one-halt
of the entire bulk of the animal and
more than one-third Of its length.
The right side of the head and nose
is occupied by cartilaginous, tri-
angular shaped cavity, called by
whalers the Cease" which is the
main receptacle for spermaceti.
The case is divided into compart-
ments communicating with each
other, and it often contains as much
as ten large barrels of spermaceti.
Though the head is large and
clumsy looking, it does not impede
the whales movements in the least,
for it raises its head above the sur
Fface of the water when swimming
and keeps it above when at rest.
1t is not very we'll known of what
use the spermaceti is to the whale,
except that it gives buoyancy to
the fore part of its body. Amber
girls Is a fragrant, waxy secretion
1t is a gray substance and when
heated or dissolved in alcohol gives
out peculiar, agreeable odor ex-
ceedingly diffusive. 1t also has the
| power of increasing the odor of 9th
er perfumes. Often it is found
floating on the sea or lying on the
seacoaSt and Is valued at about $5
an ounce.
Sperm whales traverse the seas
in herds called schools or pods by
whalers. Five hundred or more
have been seen in single school,
following a leader, whose duty
seems to be to keep close lookout
for danger. In case of threatened
harm he sounds an alarm by a pc
culiar roar.

ane Man Who Ordered Dishes That

When people have more money
than they know what to do with
they sometimes develop remarka-
BE ingenuity in devising methods
Of squandering it, as in the case OF
the French marquise who has her
bed strewn with rare and exquisite
orchids, at q cost of several thou
sand dollars a week.
Even more remarkable Is the sto-
~ told of wealthy Frenchman
who dimes twice a week at a famous
AParisian restaurant. His appetite is
The poorest, but he always insists
Oh having a tureen filed with a spe-
cially prepared soup placed before
him. Next comes a huge joint OF
neat, from which he cuts one tiny
slice. Then follow four quails or a
large chicken, of which he eats one
nouthfuI. His dessert consists OF
tour grapes and sup of coffee,
while during the meal he just
lnoistens his lips from bottle OF
expensive claret and another of the
