German Lot.e-ies.

In an article en- the lotteries the Ber-
liner Tageblatt says there are three
ways by which wealth is acquired-by
work. which is long and tedious: by
dishonesty. which is n precarious pro-
ccedlnS. and by gambling. The num-
Der Of persons who prefer the last
named method. says the writer, IS
large in the German realm. for there
the great lotteries thrive best. There
are seven Of these under the manage
ment Of the government. and they dis
tribute $4,000. 900 In prizes. The anx-
iety to secure part Of this amount
has destroyed the happiness of thou.
sands Of households and has diverted
thousands of good men from honest
industry and thrift to idleness and
poverty. In the seven lotteries there
are about 1900 winners a year. bst
Of these only about GO receive prizes
Of more than 1000 marks each.

One Of the marine curiosities 1shea

was mammoth sea crab, which con-
tinually emitted bright white light.
similar to that seen in the spasuodic
flashes OF phosphorcscent luminosity
klndled by the common areaies. The
oddly was captured In daytime and
placed in a large tank, nothing pecul-
lar except its immense size being no
ticeablc in the broad glare of the
tropical sun. At night. however. when
all-was In pitchy darkness. the crab
surprised the naturalists By lighting
up the tank so that all the other sea
creatures. great and small. occupying
the same tank could be plainly seen.
When the luminous crustacean was
proddcd with a pole he emitted aashes
OF light. which enabled the expert
menters TO read small print. even
though otherwise they were in total
dariness.-London Chronicle.
