2 UR COUNTRY. A ' ' Eatek riw fill arefcal Bmblta. The majority of the Boos in this part of the country Are wool grcwerg, and like there of their kind, are the most hos pitable people on the face of the globe. Although living in almost abject poverty, they are ever ready to extend a hand of welcome to every stranger, particularly if be be an American. I have now trav eled over 1,000 miles by cart in the col ony, and it has always been with the greatest difficulty that I have Rprsuaded the Boers to take from me tl3 price of the corn the horses would eat For days we rode along without touch ing at a single village, and when night came on we made for the nearest farm house. As the farms are generally on elevated ground the folks can see the cart a long way off, and as we pull up in front of the house the old Boer and his wife step out to bid us welcome, although we are perfect strangers, and before we have done shaking hands the Kaffir ser vants are busy outepanning our horses, while the good wife, or "frau," as site is called, hurries away to procure the best cheer her humble dwelling affords. The Boers, although so hospitable, make a distinction in their attentions to Englishmen and Americans, at least all my friends and I have found such to be the case. A few weeks ago, as I pulled up at a farmhouse about sundown, weary with my long day's ride and covered with dust, another cart containing four ' men pulled up at the same time. We were received in the usual manner, and although there was really no accommo dation in the house for five unexpected guests, it never entered into the mind of our host to hint at such a thing. The occupants of the other cart were En glishmen, and my boy, Jan Fatboy, tak ing in the 'situation at a glan je, and wish ing to procure me the best possible quar ters, told the old man that I was an American. The result was that my newly made friends occupied two beds, while I had one all to myself. No matter how Lite a traveler may present himself, be he Jew or Gentile, Englishman or American, and ask a night's lodging, the Boer's door will in stantly open to him and some one of the family will cheerfully turn out of his bed and give it to the stranger, and pos sibly find another for himself iu the hay loft. . The Boer, in' the construction; of his dwelling, does not aspire to any higher class of architecture than what pleased his grandfather and father before him. It consists of four plain walls of un burnt brick. Its floor is the honest earth with a coating of pounded ant nests mixed with blood and cowdung. How ever repulsive this may seem to your ideas, it has a nice, sweet, wholesome smell, and ware it not for the fleas which infest every Boer's house I could find no objection to it, as it has a very cool effect in the hot, dry weather. There are generally only three rooms and a kitchen or "combase" in the house, the front room opening directly onto the stoop with two bedrooms on either side. The furniture is of tiie plainest kind; the chief ornament, as well as the most use ful article, being the old Dutch clock which stands majestically in the corner, numbering the days as well as the seconds of the lives of these honest men. No ex pensive oil paintings adorn the walls, but conspicuously resting on an ornamental table of ancient date is the family Bible on which every Boer prides himself. I failed; to find any other kind of litera ture, with the exception of a few school books'and the "Ready Reckoner" which every Boer in the country possesses. I am writing this letter at my friend's bouse Farmer Von Dikpense. We have just finished the evening meal, and as I write he and his family sit with mouths wide open to see the pencil move so rap Idly over the paper, for there is not a man of fifty miles around who could write his own name in letters smaller than his thumb nail. I am quite a lion among these people, being connected w as I am with an American newspaper. They are very religious, and naturally a peaceful people, but when their rights are tampered with they rise to a man and show that although they are ignor ant farmers, they are skilled in the use of the rifle, and prove it with deadly ef fect upon their foes. They are very early risers and go about their work long be fore the sun is up. The men generally pile out of bed about 3 o'clock in the morning, and the first man up has to make coffee and call the rest. Buch is the unwritten law. They work in the veldt till noon, when they have the heartiest meal of the day. The heat is generally intense at this hour, and as soon as the meal is finished the house' is closed up to keep out the flies and every man, woman and child take them selves off to their beds, where they sleep soundly till the heat of the day is over, when they resume their work till sun down. In the evening, after supper, the people sit round the room barefooted, when a tub is passed round and each per son bathes his feet in it. At first I used to object etrongly, but found that the re fusal gave offense. Now, however, I take care to get nearest the door, where I can have a better chance of using the tub first. It is an old custom and one that induces sleep. When this foot bathing is finished the old Boer gets down the family Bible and the prayers for the night are read. They sing without hymn books, and most lust , fly, too, and it "is to be regretted that they know so few tunes, for the only one I have ever heard is the tune of lie One Hundredth Psalm. They foilow the teachings of the Dutch Reformed church, nd every Sunday, no matter what the weather is, the horses are spanned into "the cart at an early hour to take them to church, which in some cases is thirty miles away from their homes. Cor. San Francisco Chronicle. An Entirely New Court. The whole court at Berlin is now en tirely composed of new people.

' for Ah Song," said an Australian judge to the Hibernian court crier, in b Chinese law suit Gentlemen' shout ed the crier to the spectators, "would one of yez favor his honor with a song?' New York Tribune. The navies of the world have been for yean past in a transition stag in fact, ever since the introduction of armor plating for ships of war, which necessi tated the manufacture and use on board ship of heavier guns, which have since Men competing with the thickness of armor until it seems probable that the extreme limit has been well nigh reached in either case, the ideal man-of-war has been sought for the continual change and improvement; but on looking into the future, nothing but further change can be seen ahead. It is, therefore, essential to find out, as far as possible, which of our various types of ships best fulfills the requirements expected of them. The true solution of this question, and of many others waiting to be solved, con spicuous among them being the question, 'What is the value of the torpedo as an offensive and defensive weapon ?" will have to stand over till after the next great naval war. The wars of late years have not helped us much. The Ameri can civil war developed the defensive tor pedo to a stage beyond which it has not since made much advance; but from the Franco-German and Russo-Turkish wars but little was learned, beyond the undoubtedly great value of torpedoes for purposes of defense, in each case the stronger fleet being rendered innocuous oy weir use. Hut such questions as "The best way to defend a large ocean trade from attack by cruisers?" which to England is of vital importance, remain as obscure as ever. Blackwood's Maga zine. The Aquarium'. "Happy Family." In mv largest armarium five mid and silver fish, several shiners, three minute bullheads and a few tinv rork ham. found at the bottom of a deep well, dwelt ami cably together. Two small turtles unit three varieties of snail kept them com pany, ah went merry as a marriage bell until I introduced a stickleback to the assembled crowd. This wee monster proved the quintessence of malicious in dustry, nibbling the fins and tails of my choicest fish into an uneven fringe in an incredibly short time. The brilliant, apaline coloring of the sunfish makes them specially attractive, but these ferocious creatures must hav a tank to themselves. Mv fish came in time to know me, and although nearly all were shy of strangers, at a tap of my fingers on the glass they would sally from their hiding places and cluster together. Sometimes I fancied that even the snails recognized me; be that as it may, th(J intelligence of my hardshell turtles was an undoubted fact. One of them would manage by adroit climbing to somersault himself out of the aquarium on to the floor, where he strayed contentedly about, until a pertain member of the family en tering life would follow him from room to room, wherever he went. Six soft shell turtles from the Mississippi banks had special quarters of their own, and as genuine curiosities, were often the ob served of all observers. Hall's Journal of Health. Bonds of Lesser Denomination. The denominations and the distribution of railway bonds deserve criticism. Ordi narily the denominations are $500 and $1,000, but $10,000 bonds are not un common and some are issued for $100, 600. These denominations hinder the wide distribution of the securities among the people, because they are too large to secure purchasers among persons of moderate means. Only the rich can afford $500 or $1,000 investments; many people of less means would gladly invest in safe railway securities of $50 or $100 denominations. To reduce the denominations of rail way bonds would enlarge materially the home market for them. It would give the railways a larger constituency of in terested investors in the territories they serve, a constituency competent to restrain in a marked degree the excesses of ill considered hostile railway legisla tion, and to contribute in many ways to railway stability and prosperity. It is pertinent to inquire who is likely to be able most intelligently and effectively to participate in adjusting fairly the fre quently strained relations of railways and the public, the Dutch bondholders in Amsterdam or the American farmer on the western prairies, who has invested a few hundreds in securities of the roads which carry his grain to market? Forum. Preparation of Fruit Syrups. Everybody knows, says M. Manche, in The Arcluves de Pharmacie, that syrups prepared from the fresh fruit juices are far preferable to any others; but that these syrups in their "fresh state contain a large amount of carbonic acid is usu ally forgotten. When the process usu ally in vogue is followed, and sugar is added to the juices in the cold, a liquid is obtained which soon becomes so dense that the acid finds it difficult to make its escape vrben heat is subsequently ap plied, and the consequence is foaming, and sometimes a partial caramelizing of the sugar, from the fact that the syrup makes a denser layer at the bottom while the tighter juice is forming on top. To Ovoid all this, II. Manche recommends that the juice be boiled before any sugar is added, replacing loss from evaporation by distilled water. The result is said to be better in every way. Scientific Amer ican. A Popular Boston Chestnut. Tho tale is to tho effect that Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes and the venerable Dr. Peabody, of Cambridge, once had an ap pointment to sec a statue of Eurydice. Dr. Holmes arrived first, and when a few moments ktcr his friend drove up in a cab, ho greeted him with the very ob vious pun: 'Ah, you rid, I see." Dr. Peabody was wonderfully pleased with this Eally, and on his return home Attempted to repeat it for the Benefit of Lis family. "Dr. Holmes was extremelv witty this afternoon," he erid. "We went to see the Eurydice, end when I drove up ha said just as quick as a flash, 'Ah, doctor, I see you canio in a buggy.'

A BIO TELESCOPE i-ENd. tho Great Uek KM targe - 4 The other afternoon Mr. Alvin Clark, the manufacturer of the great lick tele scope lens, received a letter from the president of the University of Southern California, located at Los Angeles, ask ing for information as to a forty inch lens, and intimating that an order for a telescope to eclipse that at the Lick ob servatory would soon be sent A correspondent who was present turned his attention to the numerous lenses of different sizes and in various stages of manufacture while Mr. Clark was reading the letter. He had just been talking with the man who had made eyes that could read patent medicine uguo uu ub muuii a rocKa uo regard to the possibility for further advance in as- tronomical researches, and he feared the'! 1at4k mtrk mn!.A . - , I letter might make it necessary to shorten uis visit ait. iaara s eyes twinkled as he read the letter. Then, without a word of comment, he handed the missive to the reporter and resumed the patient rub, rub, rub of a small lens (lass on the polishing block. "What do you tlunk of thatr he asked, when the reporter, had -made a careful mental note of the contents of the letter. "I thought it had been stated by some , - : ' . " .. . . i . , savants that it was impossible to faiush a lenS anv larepr in rluiniuror thon tho lens any lanrer in diameter than thnt sent to the Lick observatory," the repor ter said. "I know such a statement has been made," replied Mr. Clark, "but I do not indorse it. I've been making telescope lenses now for a good many years, and I ought to know something about it. If I can get the glass the proper size there will be no trouble in making a lens forty inches in diameter. I d make a five footer if my Ufe was spared long enough." "Do you mean to say that there is a possibility in the future of having tele scopes five feet in diameter?" "I don't see why they should not be as large as that But mind you, it would take about one man's lifetime to make such a lens. In the first place, it would be necessary to get a piece of glass ab solutely perfect in every way. The slightest flaw or variation in" density would spoil it for a big lens. It might be a generation , before such a piece of glass could be ' manufactured. Then it must be ground and polished by hand. But I believe such a lens can be made, and I believe it will be made." "Will it be of any practical advantage to astronomers?" "Certainly it will. Its increased mag nifying power will be in proportion to its increased sized. Take this, forty-inch lens that has been mentioned as an ex ample. Its size would be one-ninth larger than the Lick observatory lens, and it would make given objects appear nine times larger or nine times nearer. Increase the diameter of the lens and you will increase the power to- examine worlds that have not yet been seen. If a lens five feet in diameter is secured, it will bring tho moon 60 close that we can see every nook and cranny on its surface. As for new stars, there is no limit to the discoveries that could be made. It would revolutionize astronomical researches." "Had you thought of making a larger lens than that' in the Lick telescope before you received this letter?" "Oh, yes. I am not surprised at re ceiving this letter, for when I was in California a year ago the president of that university intimated that they should want a larger telescope than thnt on Mount Hamilton. There is a wonderful amount of interest in astronomy in Cali fornia. All sorts of people are studring the science. This five inch lens I am polishing is for a telescope I am making for the president of that university. It is for his personal use, and he begged me to make it with my own hands, so I am pegging away at it when I get the time. I have also filled other small orders from x iiavu aiso uiiea omer small oraers from that state. In addition to those small orders I have received no less than three letters from different co11ptps askinc if t O wuiu make a forty inch lens. I have written all those persons that I was ready to accept any and all orders for a forty inch lens. In fact, I was so sure that there would be a demand for such a lens that I gave an oraer to tne glass men in Paris to save - " in otis iv save for me the first large mold that they sue- ... ..... may ;i it .iu a . lew weeli3 ana 1 may liave to wait months and weeks for it. T hotrA iu other day that they hacj cut out two extra, large plates and 'were finishing them for the exhibition next year. If it's true, I shall secure them if money will do it." "What causes this delay?" "It is all in the casting," was the reply. "All these lenses are made" in France; near Paris. They are making them all the time. They melt up a lot of glass, and when it is of the right consistency they 6etit aside to cool. The glass is melted in huge pots, and after every casting the pots are broken away, leaving a large mass of glass. Then they examine it and test it to see if it is suitable to split r.p into lenses. It must be just right or it must be melted over. They have orders for all sizes of lens, but they do not con sider those orders until they get the block of glass. Tho least indication of strite or sediment will show that it cannot boused for larger lenses. Then they break it up to 63e if they can use it for email enes. There are generally enough imperfections to ruin the block for large lenses. If none is visible to the eye the block is tested with the polariscope, to see if it is of even density throughout. If all the conditions are perfect, then they will split up the block and get out a large lens in the rough. If they succeed in doing that there is still great danger that it will be broken in the first handling to get it down to the proper size for grinding and polish ing. After that is accomplished the worst danger of breakage is passed, though of course it would require the utmost skill and cauticn not to break it while putting on the finishing touches." "Do you break many ?" "Lots of them. We do not break as many now as fo did at first, but in the course of a year we 6mash a good many. Our experience in the past has opened our eyes a little, so we can generally tell, before we touch a iens, whether or not it is sound." Boston Cor. New York Sun. A Distinguished Personage.

AUSTRIA'S EMPRESS. - V The Oaee Reanttfal Womaa's Sedated Ufe at Ever sine the unfortunate death of her only awj. Prince Rudolph, the Em press of Austria has been in declining health. She has been a veritable re cluse, and jociety'at Vienna and else where sees rery little of the once famous and beautiful woman. Lately she has aged rapidly, and although she still re tains tracesof her former loveliness few would recognize in the sad and faded woman of afty-three the once graceful and agile equestrienne whose beauty and prowess delighted the courts of Europe and were the especial pride of the Viennese. Wiesbaden, always era v, has experi enced something of a flutter over the arrival m mis uistinguisnea invalid no comes to be treated for rheumatism and gout by the most famous of Euro- I . . , - - . . arrival of this distinguished invalid pein masseurs. Dr. Metzger, of Amster dam. Dr. Metzger has had under his care at different times the Prince of Wales, who visited him here; the Em peror of Russia, whom he treated at St Petersburg, and almost every crowned head in Europe, with the exception of the young Emperor of Germany. His latest royal patient has, with her house hold, taken possession of the lovely villa Langenbeck, in the suburbs. The TUia 13 8uatea on a romantic-looking height, which overlooks the town and . ' . . . villa Is situated on a romantic-iookins affords a superb view of the surrounding country for many miles. Here the life of the Empress is very simple and se oluded. She rides a great deal, but as at Vienna, she is rarely to be seen and is denied to visitors. Her constant com panions are the Fraalein von Ferenczi and another lady of honor, her youngest daughter, the Archduchess Valerie, and the Countess Korniss. She rises very early, and with Valerie strolls in the great rose-gardens attached to the villa for an hour or more, till the time for mass, which she attends in the private chapel attached to he villa. Then she takes her massage for an hour, after whicloraes a mineral bath for the gout the whole treatment occupy ing the time until one o'clock, when dinner is served in absolute privacy. She eats very lightly, and in the even ing a little ta with sandwiches is all the ladies of the modest court take be fore retiring. Indeed, the daily routine at the villa is more like the life of a convent than any thing else. But, despite rheumatic pains and the fecblenoss of age, the Empress yet re tains her old love of adventure. Fre quently during the afternoon she takes liig excursions in the mountains and climbs to'hei;his that would be fatigu ing even to a youngei person. On these trips her companions, besides such of the ladies of, the court as have the en durance neuded for the task, are the OberhofmeisAerein. Grafin Goess and Oberhofmeinterein Baroness Nopcea. Her ailment has compelled her to aban don forever htlr horseback rides, as that form of exerci(e was largely the cause of her illness. J It was not an uncommon thing for the limpress to be in the sad dle six or eiglt hours a day for a week at a time, eitier following the hunt or for the mere ljve of the exercise. Now Dr. Metzger Ins forbidden it absolutely, and althong I she looks with longing eyes at her siables and pats the glossy necks of her ffavorites, she is an obedi ent patient. Vienna Cor.
