ANCIENT STATUARY.
Tbe Enormous Cost of Some Historic
Pieces.
The famous Colossus of Rhodes,
which has been described so often by
gleaners of the curious that the subject
is- becoming' threadbare, cost 300 '"tal
ents," a sum equal to about S375.000 in
United States currency. This sum is a
trifle, however, when compared to the
price paid for a colossal statue of
Mercury, which was made for the
Gaulish city of Averni by Zelodorus.
The artist was engaged upon this great
work for ten long1 years, and the total
cost to the city would equal $1,775,000.
What the gold and ivory statue of
Athena, in the Parthenon, or the cele
brated "Olympian Zeus," both of which
were made by Phidias, cost is not stated
by any of the ancient or modern au
thorities, but that it was enormous may
be inferred from statements made be
low: Athena was arrayed in drapery
made of pure hammered gold weighing
40 talents. The coin value of this won
derful drapery at the United States
mint to-day would approximate S5SO,000
Of the Olympian Zeus it has been sai(
that "it was a monster idol of gold am
ivory worth more than the cash asset
of many modern kingdoms." The hea
of this great image was covered witl
locks of pure gold, each weighing sij
minae, or about the value of 825,000 ii
modern gold coin.
A Big Corn Yield.
The largest crop of corn ever pro
duced on one acre, according to tht
Charleston News and Courier, was that
raised by a farmer in Marlboro county,
S. C, in 1892. A prize of one thousand
dollars was offered for the largest
yield on an acre, and this farmer chose
a piece of worn-out piney woods, sandy
land, to which he applied more than a
thousand dollars' worth of fertilizers.
The season was favorable and the cul
tfvator was kept going almost con
stantly. The stand became so thick
and heavily burdened with ears that
fences had to be built to sustain it.
When the crop was gathered it meas
ured within a peck of two hundred and
fifty-five bushels and carried off the
prize, which the farmer richly deserved,
for it takes a valiant man to spend
more than a thousand dollars to enrich
a single acre.
location of the Memory.
The memory remains intact and in
perfect working order in cases where
the left side of the brain is badly dis
eased or even if portions of it have
been removed.' From this the natural
inference is that the right side of the
brain is the seat of that most remark
able faculty. Lieut. Brady, who lost
a portion of the right side of the brain
from a gunshot wound while in Assam,
where two-thirds of the officials are
negroes, suffered a remarkable lapse
of memory. After he had fully recov
ered he knew and could call by name
all his white associates, but the ne
groes, whom he formerly knew as well
as the whites, were "perfect strangers
to him.
A Happy Settlement.
The late Lord Denman, on being re
minded by a hatter that a small ac
count was "overdue," visited the shop
and gave the manager a legal reply to
the request for payment. "You state,"
he said, solemnly, as he stood over him,
shaking his finger at him, "that this
account is overdue. Remember that a
bill of exchange or bill of acceptance
may become overdue, but a trades
man's account never. A gentleman
pays when he thinks he will or when
he has the money. But to show that
no ill-feeling exists, I will pay the ac
count and take another hat." "

LEAVES NO MONUMENT.
The Vanishing American Indian Has Done
Nothing to Benefit Mankind.
A recent brief announcement, un
noticed by many, had ' an important
bearing on the "Indian question," or
on the duration of that question, says
the Kansas City Star. It was, seem
ingly, that the last mounted soldier of
the United States army had been ordered
out of the Indian Territory, something
that had never before happened. Ever
since the white man landed on the
shores of what are now the United
States a white man with a gun has
been watching the Indian. The first
semblance of an army was raised to
fight Indians; almost the first structure
raised on the shore was a fort for pro
tection against Indians; so, for two
hundred years and more as the Indian
has fallen back, the soldier and the
fort have moved with him.' Then the
white man moved around to the west
ern ocean and. the western shore, to
Oregon and California, and began to
push the Indian to the eastward, fort
and soldier and settler altogether press
ing on. Now the Indians moved back
from the Atlantic and Pacific to the
great central plains seem surrounded,
and now comes the order to take off
the guard. "He can neither fight nor
fly" is the idea of this order. "He
must be a 'good Indian' now. The
troopers can unsaddle and take a long
rest from now on." Does not this re
ally look as if we were approaching
the last hour of the last Indian?
In truth, the original "real" Indian,
absolutely unchanged by contact with
the white man, has gone now except in
the far deserts and mountain fast
nesses. In 1846, Francis Parkman
tells us in the "Oregon Trail," he saw
Indians who had not emerged from
the "stone age," and used imple
ments and weapons such as may have
been used by people before Noah's
flood. But could such Indians be found
now? Certainly not in the region
where Mr. Parkman found them. El
derly people who visit the "Wild West"
show make mild complaint that the
Indians who do the best they can to
look "natural" do not look like the
Indians of forty years ago. That In
dian has, somehow, "passed on."
This much is certain, that the "last
Indian" will be, in every sense of the
word, the "last." He will leave noth
ing behind him to mark the place he
occupied in the world no history;
neither monument. Books there will
be and museums and "collections," but
none by him. Should an Indian be
come so learned and accomplished as to
write a history he would become a
white man. Many white men have
followed him, studied him. Learned
men from foreign countries have jour
neyed here for such purposes, but who
of all of them has learned the secret of
the Indian's heart? To do that it
would be necessary to become for the
time an Indian to "put yourself in
his place;" and what white man has
ever done that? The Indian has no
record, or it is as if whispered to the
winds or committed to the leaves that
fall or to the water that runs away.
The Indian rears, while he is an Indian,
no habitation that endures; when it is
gone there is nothing but a ring on
the ground that the rain washes away,
lie throws up no highway; bis narrow
path through the grass lasts no longer
than the buffalo's road to ford in the
stream. So there must come a time
when, leaving no trace behind, he shall
pass out of this world, when the "last
Indian" shall go like the mist.
A COURT BALL.
Brilliancy of the Scene as Depicted by an
American Visitor.
Never shall I forget the sight which
greeted me as we entered, writes Win
nifred Grant, in Home and Country. A
long walk between two lines of people
led to the further end of the room,
where I saw a slender man, in the uni
form of the Austrian hussars, and a
sweet-faced lady in a court costume
that fairly blazed with jewels, sur
rounded by ladies and gentlemen in
waiting, all gorgeously attired. The
brilliancy of the countless crystal gas
lights from the huge chandeliers, the
superb uniforms, wealth of sparkling
jewels on all sides, and the magnificent
gowns, all completed a "picture of daz
zling beauty, never to be forgotten. I
was dimly aware of the fact that the
countess had again given our names to
some official, who repeated them to the
master of ceremonies, handing him the
cards. Not visiting cards, mind you,
but huge things with Our' names so
clearly written as to defy mistake. We
had dropped our trains on entering the
room, and they were immediately spread
out to their full width and length by
ushers with long wands.
Then we slowly marched up the
room, and after our names had been
announced to their majesties, we each
stepped forward and courtesied, or
bowed, almost to the floor. Then we
backed away, keeping our faces toward
the royal party, until we reached the
end of the room, where we stopped to
breathe for a minute. ' I had been pre
sented, and lived, and was grateful.
Presently there was a movement in
the lines of guests, and at the same
moment a hidden orchestra began a
majestic polonaise. The guests moved
towards the sides of the room, leaving
the center cleared, and, headed by two
ushers with staves, the royal party
slowly marched around the ballroom
and then retired. His majesty's ball
had been formally opened.
An Ancient H anting: Ground.
There is still a deal of good hunting
on the Delaware peninsula, although
the region -has been steadily shot over
by a sporting population for the last
two hundred and fifty years. Dela
ware has stringent game protective
laws, and in the west county of the
state there are great swamps that still
harbor a considerable variety of game.
The same is true of several of the
Maryland eastern shore counties, and
the two Virginia counties have prob
ably as good aquatic hunting as is to
be found anywhere on the Atlantic
coast short of a few almost inaccessible
p;ita north and south.
