LOST FOR I.COO YEARS.
A Great Find of the BIsrhl Priced
ThpBRnllnn Marble.
The quarries from which the ancients
obtained their highly-prized Thessaliau
or . verd marble have Toeen discovered
and are again being w orked by an Eng
lish, company, says the .Philadelphia
Kecord. The quarries, which have been
lost for more than 1,000 years, are in
the neighborhood of Larissa, in Thes
saly, Greece. The ancient workings are
very extensive, there being no fewer
than ten quarries, each producing a
somewhat different description of mar
ble, proving without a doubt that every
variety of this marble found in the
ruined palaces and churches of Rome
and Constantinople and likewise in att
the mosques and museums of the world
came originally , from these quarries.
In fact, the very quarry from which the
famous monoliths of St. Sophia, Con
stantinople, were obtained can be iden
tified with absolute certainty by the
matrices from which they were e-Jfc;
tracted. . - .- v.-.rt q --- -.
In modern times verd antico marble
has only been obtainable by the destruc
tion of some ancient work, and it has,
naturally, commanded extraordinarily
high prices. As a consequence, a num
ber of ordinary modern greens of Greek,
French, Italian and American origin
have- been described and sold as verd
antique marble. No one, however, who
is really acquainted with the distinctive
character of the genuine material could
be deceived by these inferior marbles.
Thessalian green is easily distinguished
from any other green marble by the fol
lowing characteristics: It is a "brec
cia" of angular fragments of light and
dark green, with pure statuary white,
the whole being cemented together with
a brighter green, while the snow-white
patches usually have their edges tinted
off with a delicate fibrous green, radiat
ing to the center of the white. The ce
menting material is also of the same
fibrous character.
QUEEN'S JUBILEE PENANCE.
Subjects Who Will Send Her MoJestyS
- Their Photographs.
Some weeks ago we protested strong
ly against the proposal that cards of
congratulation should be showered
upon the queen from subjects person-
ally unknown to her majesty during the
approaching celebration, says the' Lon
don Times. We pointed out that the fa
tigues of this period for all members
of the court will be quite trying enough
without any addition to them in the
shape of thousands, possibly millions,
of extra letters being delivered at' the
royal residences and requiring atten
tion. Since then it has been announced
that all communications intended foi
her majesty in connection with the dia
mond jubilee must be forwarded
through the secretary of state, 1ut in
spite of this a firm of photographers,
showing more enterprise than good
sense, revived the unfortunate sugges
tion mentioned above. They have sent
us a specimen of a card they are issu
ing, bearing the words: "With heartfelt
wishes for your most gracious majesty s
royal subject," and with a space lor the
sender s photograph, which, of course,
is to be taken by the firm. Perhaps
the surest means of dissuading any who
might be inclined to make use of so
unseasonable a form of felicitating her
majesty on an event of which she knows
all her subjects are proud is to point
out that their cards are not at all like
ly to get any nearer the queen than the
home office in Whitehall. .'
SUBDUED THE HORSE.
Gen. Grant as a Cadet Displayed Q.aaJLi-
ties Conspicuous in Later Days.
' The following story was told by Col.
Green, a classmate of Gen. U. S. Grant
at West Point, says the American Horse
Breeder:
"One day when the members of
Grant's class were called out for drill
on horseback there were not horses
enough by one to go round. Grant was
one of the shortest men in his class,
consequently was on the extreme left
of the company, "and he was the one
for whom there was no horse. The
officer ordered a horse brought, which
was done. Ihe animal was a vicious
brute, which had proved so unman
ageable that he had been discarded.
The officer in charge did not notice th
horse until just as young Grant vault
ed into the saddle, when, horror-strick
en, he ordered him to dismount. The
horse did his part to assist the rider to
obey the order, but Grant drove his
spurs into the sides of the infuriated,
plunging, kicking, bolting brute, and
guided him into an open field, where he
gave such an exhibition of amateur
horsemanship as no member of that
class had ever before witnessed. Be
fore the contest was ended the horse
was thoroughly subdued and from that
time became a Useful,. obedient animal,
but it was always ridden by Grant.
Names of Cities.
Old Paris was formerly called by its
Roman inhabitants Lutetian meaning
"Mudtown." London derives its name
from the old fortified hill of the Brit
ons, standing where St. Paul's cathe
dral now is. Dublin means the "black
pool,", and Liverpool "the pool of the
living creatures." ; Rome is ' said to
mean "the cross roads," and Berlin is
variously translated as meaning "the
short lake," "the free and open place,1
"the river island" and "the marshy
spot.'
Pernambuco
means
"the
mouth of hell," Bombay "good boy.
while Cairo is a corruption of 'E1
Kahirah. the victorious." Isnahan is
the half of the "world," Askrahan
"the city of the star," Bagdad "the gar
den of justice," and Copenhagen "the
merchants' harbor."
Utility- of Mosquitoes.
The utility of the mosquito has been
fully demonstrated by - entomologists.
Born and reared in pestilential swamps,
thia insect does valuable work by con
suming animal and vegetable matter
which, if allowed to decompose, would
still further poison the air.
LESSENING STATURE IN EUROPE
One of the Chief Contributing; Causes
Is the Military Service Exacted.
This relation between stature and
health is brought to concrete expres
sion in the armies of Europe thro-ugh a
ejection of all recruits for service who
fall below a certain minimum standard
of height, generally about five feet, says
Popular Science -Monthly. The re
sult of this is to preclude the possibility
of marriage for all the fully developed
men during their three years m the
barracks, while the undersized indi
viduals, exempted from service on this
account, 'are left free to propagate the
species meanwhile. Is it not apparent
that the effect of this artificial selection
is to put a distinct premium upon in
feriority of stature in so far as future
generations are concerned? This en
forced, postponement of marriage for
the normal man implies not merely that1
the children of normal families are
born later in life' that would not be of
great moment in itself it means far
more than this. The majority of chil
dren are'more often born in the earlier
half of married life, before the age of
35. Hence a postponement o'f matri
mony means not only later children,
but fewer children. Herein lies the
great significance of the phenomenon
for us.- Standing armies tend in this
respect to overload succeeding genera
tions with inferior types of men.
"His Little Mistake.
An exchange tells of a clerk who was
showing a lady some parasols. He had
a good command of language, and knew
how to commend his goods. As he
picked up a parasol from the lot on the
counter and opened it, he struck an at
titude of admiration, and holding it up,
said: "Now, there, isn't it lovely ? Look
at that silk. Particularly observe the
quality, the finish, the general effect.
Pass your hand over it," he said, as he
handed it to the lady; "isn't it a
beauty?" "Yes," said the lady; "that's
my old one. I just laid it down there."
