A DEED OF DARING.
One Man Swan to Sinking VesseI
Twenty seven Times, Returning
Every Time With a Human Being.

A historic case of daring and endur-
Hnce rarely equaled in life saving an
nails was that of the rescue of twenty
seven souls by one man in 1867. The
fishing schooner Sea Clipper was driv-
en- by the tempest against a reef near
the Spotted islands on that coast and
speedily went to pieces. Captain VIII
liam Jackman, in charge of a fishing
crew at these islands, had wandered
in a direction he had never been be-
fore as if by inspiration and suddenly
saw the whole tragedy enacted before
his eyes, Hurrying his one cOmpan-
ion back to the fishing station to sum-
mon help. he plunged into the bowling
swirl himself and eleven times swan
to the ship. Each time he took back
a human being to safety, battling
splendidly against wind and tide.
Then help arrived, but no means was
available of communicating with the
vessel, so Jackman fastened a rope
around his waist and made fifteen
more trips, returning With a castaway
on each occasion. 1t was then discOv-
cred that a woman had been overlook
ed and left on board, and the belief
was expressed that she was dead, but
he declared that he would not leave
her there, living or dead. Accordingly
he plunged into the surf again and
soon bore the hapIess creature to the
shore, where, divesting himself of his
fiannels, he wrapped them round her,
as she was almost at deaths door She
| expired a few hours later, but lived
long enough to thank her preserver
for his noble efforts in her behalf

CYCLONE FORMATION.
Air Gets Warm and Light, and che
Mechanical Laws Are the Same
as In Whirlpool.

Any one can make the exact counter
part Of a cyclone if he so desires. OF
course a cyclone is caused by the air
over a big area getting warm and
light with small pressure. This air
consequently tries to rise almost in
body and leaves a partial vacuum be-
hind, but the outside cold air rushes
in from all sides Now, it is a scien-
tific and mechanical truth that when a
fluid runs in from all sides toward a
central point it causes a whirlpool or
rotation Of the fluid The exact anal
Ogy of a cyclone, then. although with
the fluid water instead of air, is seen
when the stopper is pulled out Of the
bottom of a basin full of water An
almost perfect vacuum, as far as the
water Is concerned, is caused by the
water Immediately over the stopper
running out. The rest of the water
rushes in from all directions. and q
whirlpool is the result. There is one
difference here from the air cyclone.
In the air the force with which it
rushes toward the center greatly COM

hunters dress their game carefully
enough. As soon as a deer is killed
the carcass should be thoroughly bled.

TOBACCO IN THE ARCTIC.
Resource of Miners When They Can
Neither Chew Nor Smoke.

Resource of Miners When They Can
Neither Chew Nor Smoke.
when the wind is blowing thirty
miles an hour and the temperature is
40 below it is some cold" said a man
from Alaska. IF a man used tobacco
in the ordinary way out of doors dur
ing such weather and got his lips wet
through smoking a pipe or chewing he
would be apt to get into trouble. First
thing he knew he'd have his lips crack
ed, and they would be raw all winter
long.
The regulars stationed at the mill
tary posts up in Alaska found that if
they tied a tobacco leaf in their arm
pit previous to undesired duty they
would become very sick and could pass
the post surgeon for hospital getting
rid of detail work they wanted TO
avoid.
The miners up there learned some
thing of this and found that the tObac-
co craving could be satisfied by bind
ing a quantity of the leaf either in the
armpit or against the solar pleXus.
This avoided broken and bleeding lips
during the winter, and they weren't
prevented from smoking indoors as
well if they wanted to. 1t was the out
door smoking or chewing that made all
the trouble. New York Sun.

A CURIOUS ANIMAL.
The Sea Cucumber Can Part With snd
Replace its Organs.

Among the curious animals which in
habit the sea we may take the hOlo-
thuria, or sea cucumber, so called from
its resemblance to the cucumber.
When this animal is attacked by an
enemy it does not stand up and fight,
but by a sudden movement it elects its
teeth. stomach. digestive apparatus
and nearly all its intestineS and then
shrivels its body up to almost nothing.
When, however. the danger is past
the animal commences TO replace the
organs which it has voluntarily parted
with, and in a Short time the animal
is as perfect as ever it was.
DR.. JOhnstone kept one in water for
a long time, and one day he forgot to
change the water The creature in
consequence elected its intestines and
shriveIed up, but when the water was
changed all its organs were repro
duced. Although the animal is not
eaten in Europe, il is a favOrite with
the Chinese, and the fishing forms an
important part of the industry Of the
east. Thousands Of jUnks are annual
ly used in fishing for trepang. as the
animals are caIled.-LOndOn Tit-Bits.

SUGAR

Our word sugar" is said to be de
rived from the Arabic ''sukkar," the
article Itself having got into Europe
through the Arabian MOhammedans,
who Overra1 q great part Of the world
in the seventh, eighth and ninth cen
turies. According to DR.. Van Lpp-
man, Dutch writer, as a result Of the
Arab invasion of Persia sugar found
its way into Arabia, whence again
its culture was carried to Cyprus,
Rhodes, Sicily and Egypt. In the last
named country the preparation Of sug-
ar was greatly improved, and the
Egyptian product became widely IA
nous. From Egypt the industry
spread along the northern coasts Of
Africa ana so entered Spain, where,
about the year 115O, some fourteen re
fineries were in operation. Columbus
introduced sugar cane into the new
world.-ArgOEaut

TAR AND FEATHERS.
A Coat Of These, Taking Several Days
to Remove, Means Exeruciatina
Torture to the Victim.

People who read of tarring and
feathering know that the punishment
is a very unpleasant one, but few i'm
agine how terribly painful and dan
gerous it is. Hardened tar is very
hard TO remove from the skin. and
when feathers are added it forms a
kind Of cement that sticks closer than
a brother. As soon as the tar sets the
victims suffering begins. 1t contracts
as it cools, and every one of the little
veins on the body is pulled. causing the
most exquisite agony. The perspira-
ton is entirely stopped, and unless the
tar is removed death is certain to en-
sue
But the removal is no easy task and
requires several days. The tar cannot
be softened by the application of heat
and must be peeled off bit by bit,
sweet oil being used to make the proc
ess less painful. The irritation to the
skin is very great, as the hairs cannot
be disengaged, but must be pulled out
or cut off. No man can be cleaned OF
tar in a single day, as the pain of the
operation would be too eXcruciating
for endurance, and until this is done he
has to suffer from a pain like that OF
10000 pin pricks. Numbers Of men
have died under the torture, and none
who have gone through it regard tan
and feathering as anything but a most
fearful inflictiOn

Faithful Woman.

l tell you that women, as a rule, are
more faithful than men-ten times
more faithful. I never saw a man
pursue his wife into the very ditch and
dust of degradation and take her in
his arms. [ never saw a man stand at
the shore where she was wrecked,
waiting for the waves to bring back
her corpse to his arms, but 1 have seen
woman with her white arms lift a
man from the mire Of degradation and
hold him to her bosom as If he were
an angel-IngersOH.

His Bad DRAM

Truly oriental was the defense put
forward by a prisoner at AllpOTe.
Charged with stealing a Hindu idol
with its ornaments, he stated that the
goddess told him in a dream the night
before that, as she was not properly
worshiped by the Hindu priest, she
would be better taken care of by him,
a MOhammedan, and that unless he
took charge of her worship she would
in her wrath destroy his whole family.
The magistrate, however, was not sat
isfied with the story and sentenced the
accused 10 two months rigorous i'm
prisonment and to pay ine.-BOm-

THE DEAREST GIFT.
A Pathetic Incident In the Life of Rob.
ert Browning Told by an Ameri-
can Traveller In Italy.

A young American woman was traV-
cling one day in an Italian railway
coach, the. only other occupant Of the
compartment being an elderly gentle
man. Observing the interest of the
young woman in the country through
which they We're passing and seeing
also shat it was new to her, the more
experienced traveller pointed out OBJ
Jects and places of note.
From scenery the conversation drift
ed TO books and authors, until some
thing suggested TO the young Ameri-
can one of Elizabeth Barrett Brown
ing's sOnnets, which she quoted.
She was astonished and abashed be-
cause the gentleman made no reply,
but during the rest Of the ride sat look
ing intently out of the window. hav-
ing apparently forgotten the very ex-
istence Of his travelling companion.
As they neared the station where the
young lady was to leave the car she
said timidly:
Il fear, sir, that have offended you
Perhaps you do not like Mrs. Brown
ing's poetry"
The man slowly turned upon her
tear dimmed eyes, and in a voice full OF
emotion he said:
Madam, that sonnet is the sweetest
as its singer was the dearest, gift God
ever gave to me-"
