A JAPANESE GARDEN.
The Sensations There experienced Fa
miliarity of Its Animal Inhabitants.
Lafeadio Heani, in an article in the.
Atlantic devoted to a Japanese garden,
writes thus of his own garden and some
of its inhabitants: .
"Those antique garden walls, high
mossed below their rained coping of
1 tiles, seem to Bhnt out even the mur
mur of the city's life: There no sounds
but the voices of birds, the shrilling of
semi, or, at long, lazy interval:;, the
solitary plash of a diving f rog. , Nay,
those wallK seclude me from much
t more than city streets. Outside them
hums the changed Japan of telegraphs,
and newspapers, and steamships; with
in dwell the all-reposing peace cl na
ture and the dreams of the sixteenth
century- There is a charm of quaint
ness in "the very air a faint sense of
something viewless and sweet all about
one; perhaps -the . gentle haunting of
dead ladies . who . looked ' like the
ladies of the old picture-books and
who lived here when all this was
new. Even in the summer light
touching the gray, strange shapes of
stone thrilling through the foliage of
the long-loved trees there is the ten
derness of a phantom caress. These are
the gardens of the past. The future
will know them only as dreams,' crea
tions of a forgotten art, whose charm
no genius may reproduce.' '
' "Of the hniuan tenants here no crea
ture seems to be afraid. The little
frogs resting upon the lotus leaves
scarcely shrink from my touch; the liz
ards sun themselves within easy reach
of my hand; the water snakes glide
across my shadow without fear; bands
of semi establish their deafening or
chestra on a plump branch just above
my head; and a praying mantis inso
lently, poses on my kuiw. Swallows
and sparrows not only build their nests
on my roof, but even enter my rooms
without concern one swallow has
actually built its nest in the ceiling of
the bathroom and the weasel purloin
fish Under my very eyes without any
scruples of conscience. A wild uguisu
perehes oh a cedar by the window, and
in a burst of savage sweetness chal
lenges ray caged pet to a contest in
song; and always through the golden
air, from the green twilight of the
mountain pines, thVro purls to me the
plaintive, caressing, delicious call of the
yamabato. No European dove has such
a cry. He who can iiear for the first
time the voice of the yamabato without
feeling a new sensati m at his heart lit
tle deserves to dwell in this happy
world."' .

The work of the Missouri world's
fair commission is progressing rapidly
and ;vl ready a large warehouse in St.
Loui.-i is lilling rrith exhibits of the
products of the soil of the state. With
the ripening of the various crops the
work of collection was begun in south
ern Mi:;:i.i:rl, progressing northward
with the season. Specimens, of grains,
grasses, forage plants, etc.,' in straw
and threshed, have been secured, in
cluding corn, flax, cotton, tobacco and
every other agricultural produet as de
veloped.
Specimens of every kind of Missouri
fruit and berry are being prepared as
they ripen anil placed in crystal glass
jars. This exhibit will be added to
from next year's crop, this year's supply
being kept in cold storage. Already
forty specimens of timber have been
collected, and nearly two hundred more
will be added. The mineral exhibit
will include exhaustive specimens of
zinc, lead, coal, iron, stone, clays and
shale.

A creater number than would be im
agihed of the crowds that fill the elee

that electricity will cure every ailmenl

adherents of the electric faith propa
ganda muster especially strong. A con
ductor on one of the street-car lines if
reported as saying: "It is amusing tc
see passengers on our line eying eact

about the new cure for rheumatism. D
a man, woman or cl did boards a cai

THE NAPOLEON CAT HOAX.
A. Popular Riot Caused By a Jester Who
Was Never. Discovered.
In 1815, when the vessel containing
Napoleon ..was about to sail for St.
Helena, some waggish person in Chester,
England, caused to be distributed in the
town and surrounding country hand
bills stating that the island of St. Helena
was so overrun by rats that without
relief it would be imnossible for the
captive emperor and his guards to livt
there. This being the case, says the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat, the government
had determined to send out a shipload oi
cats, the ship to sail from Chester. On
a certain appointed day the king's
officer would be in the city and would
pay sixteen shillings, about four dollars,
for fullgrown toms, ten shillings for
female cats and and two shillings and
sixpence for kittens old enough to" feed
themselves.
The people of the surrounding country
took the matter seriously, and on the
day appointed thousands- of cats were
brought into Chester. The owners, find
ing they had been tricked, became
angry, threw away their cats and started
to sack the city hall. The police were
unable to deter them and a riot ensued,
in which a number of the townspeople
were injured by the infuriated country
folk, who relished neither the jest noi
the laughter at their expense. In the
three weeks after ; the riot over f out
thousand cats were, killed in Chestci
and the' vicinity. The jester was nevei
discovered, though a reward was offered
for his detection and punishment.
BIDDY AND HER NEST.
It Blew Away, bnt She Picked, It Up and
Returned It.
"I have seen one or two good hen
stories in the New York Tribune,''
writes a correspondent of that paper,
"but I think this one beats them. One
day last fall it happened that not fax
from my house a board . as resting on
two barrels, which were about ten feet
apart,- and somebody had laid an old
discarded straw hat on it, the crown
lying on the board. An old hen, which
was a great pet with the family, saw
this arrangement and evidently decided
that the old hat was just the thing for
a nest. So she carefully hopped into it
and laid an egg. We decided to humor
her whim, and therefore fastened the
hat to the board. She continued to lay
in this queer nest for some time. ' But
one day the hat became unfastened in
some way and blew off the board.
When biddy saw this she began to sing
disconsolately, and we thought she
would give up the hat and seek another
nest. But we were mistaken. In a lit
tle while she seized the hat in her bill
and flew with it on to the board, where,
after a great deal of fussing, she adjust
ed it so that she could lay- in it. After
that we fastened it so that it could no'
blow off." ' -
WONDERS OF THE SEA.
sY Mine of Information Condensed Into
'-. Instructive Sentences.
The sea occupies three-fifths of the
surface of the earth. At the depth of
about ::,500 feet waves are not felt. The
temperature is the same, varying only a
trifle from the ice of the pole to the
burning sun of the ' equator. ' A mile
down the. water has a pressure of over a
ton to the square inch. If a bpx 6 feet
deep were filled with sea water al
lowed to evaporate under the sun, there
would be 2 inches of salt left on the bot
tom. . Taking the average depth of the
ocean to be throe - miles, there would bo
a layer of pure salt 230 feet thick on t'ae
bed of the Atlantic. The water is cold
er at the bottom than at the surface. In
the many bays'on the coast of - Norway
the water often freezes at the bottom
before it docs above. Waves are very
deceptive. - To look at them in a storm
one would think the water traveled.
The water stays in the same place, but
the motion goes oil. ! Sometimes in
storms these waves are 40 feet high, and
travel fifty miles an hour more than
twice as fast as the swiftest steamship.
The distance from valley to valley is
generally fifteen times the height,
hen co a wave 5 feet high will extend
over 75 feet of water. The force, of
the sea dashing on Bell Rock is said
to be seventeen tons for each
square- yard. Evaporation is a wonder
ful power in drawing the water from
the sea. Every year a layer of the en
tire sea, 14 feet thick, is taken up into
the clouds. The winds bear their
burden into tho land, and the water
comes down in rain upon tho fields, to
flow back at last through rivers. The
depth of the sea presents an interesting
problem. If tho Atlantic wore lowered
from 0,504 feet, tho distanco. from shore
to shore would bo half as great, or 1,500
miles. If lowered a little more than
three miles, say - 13,080 feet, there
would bo a road of dry land from New
foundland to Ireland. This is the plain
on which the great Atlantic cables
were laid. The Mediterranean is com
paratively shallow.- A drying up of 000
foot would leave three different seas,
and Africa would bo -joined with Italy.
The British channel Is more like a
pond, which accounts for its cnonpy
waves. It-has been found difficult tc
get the correct soundings of tho Atlantic.-
A midshipman of -the navy
ovorcamo the difficulty, and shot weigh
ing 30 pounds carries down the line. A
hole . is bored through the sinker,
through which a rod of iron is passed,
moving easily back and forth. In the
end of tho bar a cup is dutr out, and the
inside coated with lard. Tho bar-is
made fast to the line, and a sling holds
the shot on. When the bar, which ex
tends below tho ball, touches the earth,
the ling unhooks, and tho shot slides
off. - Too lard in the end of the bar
holds some of the sand, or whatever
may bo on the bottom, and a drop shuts
over the cup to keep the water from
washing tho sand out, When theground
Is reached aliock is felt, as if an elec
tric current had passed through the
line. -.. ,
