The Mahdi’s Musicians.
The Mahdi’s musicians are the men of
the moment in Paris. They are about
fourteen in number, and, in their red
tunics, turbans and blue pantaloons, with
yellow stripes, they were taken by many
of the Parisians, who were enjoying
their Sunday stroll, for an Ethiopian con-
tingent of the Salvation Army. They
have come to Paris for the purpose of
giving some perfomances in the Eden
theatre with their national instruments.
The musicians belong to the Soudan and
were enrolled in the Egyptian army.
After Tel-el-Kebir they revolted and
joined the Prophet in the desert, but
were subsequently pardoned.—London

A Bicycle Rider’s Training’.
When asked what course of training a
bicycle rider undergoes a prominent bi-
cyclist said:
“In our training we take plenty of
hard exercise and eat nothing but light
food. It is not safe to eat any kind of
vegetables or to drink coffee. Rare beef,
beef tea, oatmeal gruel, raw oysters and
rare eggs constitute most of our diet. In
a long race the second and third days are
the hardest. Then the muscles of the
ankles and legs are all contracting with
the continued short leg motion. At the
last of a race we ride a much shorter
wheel than when we began. Warm
baths and dry rubbing, followed by lini-
ment baths, keep us up during the race.
A crowd and the excitement has much to
do with the speed. People and applause
make fast riding.
‘ ‘After the race our legs are short and
stiff and it takes at least two weeks to get
back to one’s natural condition and
shape. The exercise is all in the lower
parts of the legs and back. Our arms are
used, but not strengthened much. A
fifty mile race is more tiresome, but not
as lasting in its effects.”—New York
Journal.

Chinamen Who Can Row.
Some months ago I commented on the
fact that some of her majesty’s ships on
the China station were to a large extent
manned by Chinamen. In a regatta
which came off at Hong Kong just before
Christmas the Victor Emanuel entered
an eight oared galley, manned entirely
by Chinamen, who beat all the boats of
the squadron in capital style over a one
mile course. The Chinamen are said to
have rowed a longer and slower stroke
than any of their competitors, and their
boat has never been beaten yet. There
must be some good stuff in the Celestials
after all.—London Truth.

The Senses as Affected by Sex.
If the senses are taken seriatim it will
be evident that they are not parallel in
men and women. The latter possess in a
much greater degree the perfection of the
sense of touch; those occupations that re-
quire extreme delicacy of manipulation,
such as lace making, embroidery, bead
stringing, etc., are therefore usually fol-
lowed by women. As regards the sense
of hearing, we are not aware of any ex-
periments or observations on the relative
perfection of the sense in the two sexes,
and the same may be stated as regards
the sense of sight, which appears to be
equally acute in women and men. In
the extreme delicacy of taste it is proba-
ble the men excel. As regards the sense
of smell, some exceedingly conclusive
experiments have been made by some
American savants which appear to sub-
vert our preconceived opinions. The ex-
periments were performed with prussic
acid and other strongly odorous sub-
stances on forty-four males and thirty-
eight females, and it was found that in
nearly all cases the sense of smell was
about double as active in men as in
women. The cause of the difference in
this matter between men and wo-
men is quite unknown, as is the
object of the distinction; but it has one
practical bearing that may be borne in
mind. The employment of strong and
potent perfumes by women may depend
on their less acute sense of smell, and
they would do well to bear in mind the
fact that odors and perfumes which may
be quite pleasant to them may be almost
overpowering and decidedly unpleasant
to individuals of the other sex.—London
Queen.
Exorcising the “Demon of Pride.”
A miller woman named Jallu had four
children, two sons and two daughters.
The elder daughter, Esther Jallu, was
pretty and conscious of the fact. She
had also some education, and was a great
favorite in the village, where the other
inmates of the mill were disliked and
feared. One day her family began to as-
sume that she was possessed of the de-
mon of pride. There was an evil spirit
in Esther’s body, and the brothers Jallu
declared to everybody that they would in
some way drive it out. After ruminating
upon the matter for some time they
barred the doors of the mill, and, seizing
their sister, threw her on the floor. One
of them held her down while the other
bored holes in her with an augur. The
demon was to escape out of her body by
these openings.
While the screams of the tortured girl
were half drowned by the noise of mill-
stones turning rapidly, two women—the
mother and sister—were s dually kneel-
ing beside her praying for the success of
the operation. Four holes were bored—
one in the forehead, one in the body and
one in each leg. Whether these ignorant
peasants really imagined that they could
thus drive the demon of pride out of
their sister, or whether they premeditated
the murder they committed, mattered
very little for Esther, who, of course,
died under the operation. The gend-
armes were at once informed of the oc-
currence, and, the inmates of the mill
having been seized, they were sent to a
madhouse.—Paris Cor. London Standard.
Twenty-Four Hours to Live.
Mr. John Kuhn, Lafayette, Indiana,
who announces that he is now in perfect
health, we have the following: “One
year ago I was, to all appearances, in the
last stages of consumption. Our best
physicians gave my case up. I finally
got so low that our doctor said I could
only live twenty-four hours. My friends
then purchased a bottle of Dr. Win. Hall’s
Balsam for the Lungs, which considera
bly benefltted me. L continued until I
nine bottles, and now I am in perfect
health.

olive stones, which is imported from Italy
for the
Traveler,
can exact and started on her voyage. Jack,
who comes on board only after the ship
is loaded, and sees the dangerous manner
in which she is to be sent to sea, can but
shake Ins head, for the vessel is only down
to the Plimsoll mark, and the board of
trade surveyors will not in that case stop
the ship and compel her to be lightened.
“The Plimsoll mark is a mark which
is painted on the side of a vessel at her
lowest point of sheer, and is supposed to
denote the depth to which she may with
safety be loaded. The distance between
this mark and the deck line (measured
on the side of the ship) is called the free-
board, and by an act of parliament this
freeboard, expressed in feet and inches,
must be entered upon the articles of
agreement between the owners and crew,
a copy of which must be always hung up
in the forecastle. Now, there is no law
that fixes the rule where this mark shall
be, but it is left to the owner to put it
where he chooses. He may, therefore,
give the ship as little or as much free-
board as he sees fit. It is needless to say
that the universal rule is as little as pos-
sible.
“Well, Jack being on board, the ship
proceeds on her voyage, overloaded and
shorthanded in many instances. Bad
weather is encountered; the ship, being
too deeply laden, cannot rise to the sea,
but wallows along through it, to the peril
of the deck fittings and the men obliged
to be on the deck. The machinery being
new, there is not much danger of being
disabled unless the gale increases to hur-
ricane force, in which case, if the ship
survives, she is sure to come out of the
encounter minus some of her boats,
houses, bridges, etc., and perhaps badly
strained in the hull.
“The vessel having arrived at her des-
tination is quickly discharged and loaded,
the process being carried on night and
day, and without any thought of repair-
ing damages, except those absolutely
necessary. Should any of the boats have
been lost they will not be replaced until
she arrives at a home port. Should any
of her sails be blown away they will cer-
tainly not be replaced, but the yards will
be sent ashore, and the vessel reduced to
her fore and aft rig only, thus economiz-
ing in spars, rigging and sails, and de-
priving the sailor of his last chance for
life in case of a mishap to machinery dur-
ing a heavy gale, or in the event of the
ship’s losing her propeller. As the tramp
steamers are now being rapidly reduced
in their sail power it is found possible to
man them with two hands less in the
crew, so that a vessel of 3,000 tons dead
weight capacity frequently carries only
six men before the mast, and of these it
is safe to say that only two of the number
are fit to be trusted at the wheel or on
the lookout.
“As long as vessel and outfit are com-
paratively new she may live through
many a storm, but when the outfit is
worn out it is replaced; if at all, in the
cheapest possible manner, and as regards
repairs to hull, engines and boilers, they
are only made when there is absolutely
no other way to get the vessel to sea, and
what may then happen concerns the
owner to a very slight degree.”—Nert
York Times.

PERSONAL AN'D GENERAL.
An Honest and Safe Escort—The Sachel’#
Power of Guardianship.
I am a night bird. Not that I sleep
by day, but I take my most precious
flights around when half the town has
gone to bed. Thus my strolls usually
bring me by the theatres when the cur-
tain has fallen and the back door is
slamming; when men with shaven faces
dodge out and into the handiest saloons,
and ladies with remarkable complexions
take the arms of the dudes, who hang
around the alley way or the curbstone,
elegantly disdainful of the scoffs of the
mob. And I always halt a little way
beyond and watch the sachels take the
ballet girls home.
No great Dane or fighting bull dog
could be as honest and as safe an escort
as this sachel. The toughest lounger at
the stage door draws aside to give it
passage. As it goes through the dark
byways the policemen nod to it and the
vilest of the scum that floats upon the
night tide of the streets eddies aside and
leaves its passage clear. It brings its
charge into the street car, and the surly
conductor becomes civil. It takes her
through a mob of poor, foot weary
wantons swarming at some dive door,
and they drop their ribald voices, and
here and there among them you may
note a white, harsh face turned aside
and a swelling in a throat. It is, in
short, a badge of honesty and labor that
has gained a recognition for itself, like
the policeman’s badge or the fireman’s
uniform. As long as a ballet girl carries
her own sachel she is safe. It is only
when she gets a maid to handle it for her
that her peril has begun.
It is a poor thing enough in itself.
Even when it is brand new it exhales an
odor of cheapness. A very little use
makes sad havoc with its symmetry, and
you often encounter it in a deplorable
state of collapse. But it is never so rickety
as to lose its power of guardianship. It
is stuffed with a pair of tights, a pair of
slippers, a wig, perhaps, and certainly
with some rouge aud drop chalk and
grease paint. What little costume goes
with these essentials is left in the care of
the wardrobe people at the theatre. Its
contents and herself are the ballet girl’s
chief professional capital, and every time
she closes it she wraps up in its stuffy
depths a dream of the day when Patti or
Bernhardt shall have a rival, and the
honest old sachel give place to a jewel
case and a Saratoga trunk to a villa at
Havre or a castle in Wales.
And why not, indeed? Did not Bern-
hardt carry her sachel once, and Patti
not own a sachel to carry? What has
happened once may happen again. What
place in the world is there like the stage
for ambitions, romances and dreams?—

“that is to say that any individual or j
firm able to get together a sufficient num-
ber of subscribers to the necessary capi-
tal in from £5 to £50 shares organizes a
company, securing for the trouble the
sole management of the vessel and hand-
ling all the earnings, charging a commis-
sion to the shareholders for managing the
ship, and in many instances themselves
not owning a single share. They are
satisfied with the commissions, which are
first deducted from the gross freight
earned. Whether the vessel makes
money for the shareholders or not the
agent is always secure, aud takes care to
indemnify himself in all cases.
‘ ‘A registry of these vessels is published
annually, and a character assigned if paid
for which may or may not truly set forth
the real character or condition of the
vessel. That this certificate of good char-
acter is not always to be relied upon is
not by any means the fault of the staff of
surveyors, but can be traced to the ras-
cality of builders who, having taken the
contract perhaps ruinously low, are
tempted to substitute unknown to the in-
spector an inferior quality of metal, light
frames, insufficient or defective riveting,
or poor workmanship throughout. Or,
granted that the builder has faithfully
performed his duty, and that the vessel
has left the yard in a practically perfect
condition, it is after she has passed into
the control of the managing owner that
her unseaworthiness surely commences.
■‘ ‘The ship, now ready for business, is
chartered, for example, to load a cargo
of coal, and without any previous knowl-
edge (except the somewhat theoretical
knowledge, perhaps, of the builder) as to
how the vessel may perform, she is loaded

Natural Gas a Nuisance in 1827.
In 1827 there lived in Washington
county a farmer by the name of McCook,
an uncle of the famous Gen. Anson G.
McCook, the present secretary of the
United States senate. McCook’s farm was
situated on the old national pike, eight or
ten miles out of Brownsville. In attempt-
ing t<? dig a well a short distance back
from the pike, he struck a large flow of
natural gas. This by accident became
ignited, and the flame it gave forth scared
the horses passing on the pike and many
runaways occurred. This went on for
some time until the authorities in that
section passed an ordinance stigmatizing
it as a nuisance and compelling McCook
to suppress it as such, which he did. Thus
what the citizens of Pittsburg now con-
sider the greatest discovery of the Nine-
teenth century, just half a century ago
the citizens of Washington county con-
sidered the greatest nuisance.—Pittsburg

The Hebrew Race.
America has the best, the strongest,

of the Hebrew race. As you go east-

nearer and nearer to the Shakespearean
type. While the Jew in Austria-Hun-
gary is through his financial power the
companion of the high social classes,
often of the nobility, and sometimes him-
self ennobled, as a person in the lower
walks of life he preserves the humble
and submissive bearing which was until
late years everywhere his most notable
characteristic. The sufferance which
was the badge of all his tribe in Shake-
speare’s time continues to be his distinct-
ive mark in the southeast of Europe.
The signs of it have almost disappeared

AT THE TREMONT.
The Tremont opera house is taking a
rest until Thursday night when the fam
ous Austrian actress Mme. Janish w 11 ap-
pear, as heretofore announced, for three
nights and Saturday matinee. “Janish,”
says Nym Crinkle, the veteran New York
critic, “skipped out as suddenly and
mysteriously as she came. During her
short stay in New York scarcely an; body
saw her, except Sarony and Christine
Nilsson. And, by the way, both Chris-
tine Nilsson and Mme. Modjeska avowed
the most extraordinary admiration for
her as an artist. I asked Modjeska what
it was that Janish had ever done. She
drew herself up like a Corinthian column
with a capitol of Greek immortelles. ‘She
has won the position at the very top of
the profession in Germany,’ she said.
‘What Bernhardt is in Paris, Janish is in
Austria, with the added advantage of
beauty.’” There is no doubt but that
Janish stands at the top of the ladder as
an emotional actress and she is supported
by a strong company, the leading man
being Frank E. Aiken. The repertoire
for the engagement is for Thursday even-
ing and Saturday matinee “Princess
Andrea,” Friday evening “Camille” and
Saturday evening “Violets.” Tnis is
the first appearance in Galveston of this
wonderful actress, although she has ap-
peared frequently elsewhere on this con-
tinent. It is fair to suppose that our
theatre-goers will accept the opportunity
and greet her with a crowded house.

Superstition Among the Poles.
There is a venerable superstition amc
Polish people that when a crow alights
a house it portends death to one or more !
of the occupants. When, about 8 o’clock I
Thursday morning a coup’s of birds of the share plan, ” said an old sea captain;
this species were descried calmly perched . “that i« tn sa.v that n.nv individual or
on the roof of one of Poland’s sons on
Racine street, north of Brady, the neigh-
borhood, which is inhabited almost en-
tirely by Poles, was thrown into the
greatest excitement. In less than half
an hour the street was filled with people,
the proportions of the crowd attracting
the attention of the police. Hostile dem-
onstrations caused the sable hued birds to
fly to an adjoining roof. Up popped
an upper story window in the next
house, a woman’s head appeared, and in
evident alarm the woman waved an apron
meaningly at the “birds of evil omen.”
Instead of being frightened away the
crows took the waving of the apron as a
mark of welcome and changed their po-
sition from the roof of her neighbor to
her own housetop.
By this time the excitement of the
crowd below had grown to fever pitch.
Women were shedding tears or mumbling
a prayer, while little children clung to
their skirts, unable to make out what
was the matter. Men and women were
gathered in knots, all gesticulating and
jabbering at once, but all keeping a
weather eye open and a pocketful of
stones ready in case the birds should steer
for then- own premises. Finally the
crows began to fly from house to house,
and then there was a shower of stones as
thick as hail, men, women and boys
being engaged in the fusillade amid the
most indescribable excitement. The birds
flew from house to house until they had
had taken in the entire square. Finally
they distanced their yelling pursuers.
As the people returned to their homes
many offered prayers for themselves and
families. One old man who believes in ...
the superstition said in his broken Eng- as deeply as even the greed of the owners
fish: -l — j __ i t i_
