ALL PkizE WINNERS.
The Joy of Japanese Mother at a Baby
Show on Pacific Steamship.
Dr. A. Nelson Beach, surgeon of the
steamship China, when lat here, told
the story of the most remarkable baby
show and of the most remarkable prize-
winning1 family that has yet been put
on record, says the San Francisco Ex
aminer. The China on the last trip to the ori
ent took on board at Honolulu four
hundred and ten Japanese, all home
ward bound after having worked out
their contracts on the Hawaiian islands.
Many of the Japanese had their wives
and children -with them, and there
were eighty-three babies under four
years fifty-three girls and thirty boys.
The eighty-three almond-eyed youngs
ters furnished amusement for the cabin
passengers for a time. When there is no
view save the broad horizon eighty
three Japanese babies are great attractions.-
Somebody suggested a baby
show. The mothers had never heard
of a baby show, but the eagle of an
American dollar is a great interpreter,
and the Japanese commissioner of im
migration to the Hawaiian islands,
who was a passenger on the steamer,
aroused the maternal pride of the little
mothers in the steerage. By contribu
tion of the cabin passengers a purse
was made up and prizes were offered
for the three handsomest girls and the
three finest boys under four years.
The eighty -three little Japs in gor
geous kimonos were placed on exhibi
tion one afternoon, and then the judges
awarded the prizes.
Alter the prizes were awarded a
startling discovery was made. The lit
tie girls who took first and second
prizes were sisters, and the little boys
who took first and second prizes were
brothers, isut when the passengers
found that the prize-winning little boys
and the prize-winning little girls were
brothers and sisters, all children of the
same parents, there was astonishment
unbounded, and the passengers made
up a purse of five dollars for the mother
of the prize-winning family, in addi
tion to the prize money bestowed on the
children.
"If there had been more in the fami
ly they would have had the rest of the
prizes, I suppose," said Dr. Beach, "but
the award of four prizes to four chil
dren of the same family, the oldest of
the children four years of age, was suf
ficient glory for the mother, who was
the proudest parent I ever saw. The
awards were fairly made, and none of
the judges knew that the children were
brothers and sisters."

A BOTTOMLESS PIT.
Exploratioa of a Peculiar Cave Formation
In France.
A mono; the most remarkable of na
ture's wonders the subterranean pit at
Jean. Nouveau, near Vaucluse, France,
which reaches a depth of five hundred
and forty feet, while nowhere more
than twelve feet wide, has only recent
ly been explored. The French Society
of Speleology (cave study) erected a
derrick at the mouth of the pit which
beg-in s with a funnel fifteen feet wide
at the top and narrows down to three
feet at a depth of about twenty feet.
From here down the crevice in the
rock, for such it is, extends vertically,
getting wider as it extends deeper, un
til at a depth of about four hundred
and seventy-five feet it is twelve feet
wide. At this point the shaft opens
into a roomy cave in which just beneath
the opening of the vertical pit a thick
layer of clay, containing remains of
bones, both human and animal, was
found. The explorers found no evi
dence that the place had ever been vis
ited by man, but tradition has it that
criminals were thrown into the "bot
tomless pit," as it was popularly called
in the neighborhood, and the remains in
the cave just beneath the shaft tend to
corroborate this belief.
The descent made into the shaft was
exceedingly difficult; it established the
fact that there must be a further cave
far below the one now known, but the
crevice through which it is accessible
is choked up with debris and bowlders
so that it will be a very difficult matter
to penetrate further into the cave than
has been done. The deepest point
reached in this crevice is five hundred
and ninety-three feet underground.
Great quantities of water rush through
the shaft at every time there is a storm,
still no trace of water was found in the
cave explored, which proves that some
other subterranean exit must exist.
USES FOR OLD RAILS.
A Great Amount of Barbed-Wire Fencing
Is Made of Them.
In speaking of the use of old rails re
cently, says the Railway Reviewer, an
official of the Pennsylvania railroad
stated the life of a rail on the Pennsyl
vania lines west is about eleven years
and on the Pennsylvania railroad only
nine years. The difference is perhaps
due to heavier traffic on the Pennsyl
vania railroad. The friction of con
stantly passing trains wears on the rail
until it must be replaced by a new one.
The company pays twenty-four dollars
a ton now twenty-two dollars and
the trails used on that line average
eighty-five pounds to the yard. When
it has passed its useful stage the rail is
replaced.
The old rails that are taken outirom
time to time are gathered up every
month and sold to junk and scrap deal
ers at twelve dollars a ton. It can read
ily be seen that the company pays only
twelve dollars for the use of rails per
ton. The price received from the scrap
man is a good figure, when it is known
that the rails, when sold, are of no use
to the company. Rails that are not
much worn are sold to factories along
the road at eighteen dollars per ton,
where they are used for sidings and an
swer the purpose quite as well as new
rails. I here are many uses to which
the old rail is put. A great amount of
barb-wire fencing is made of railroad
Iron and very often the rails are used as
foundations for large buildings. There
are not many people who know that
the Masonic temple in Chicago rests on
a foundation of steel rails, layer upon
layer, six feet deep.

"VAR I ETI E4T2)F lbu.NESS,
Some Penone Do Jiothing from Choice,
Others Per Forxj.
Idleness plays many parts.
There
are the constitutionally indolent those
who, like Dr. Johnson, are never, phys
ically, ready to get up in the morn
ing, but who, like him, are possessed
of a conscience which compels them
now and again to face the reflection of
what they have compared with what
they might have done, and to stand
aghast at the comparison.
There are those, says Chambers'
Journal, whom circumstances have
made idle riches, absence of motive
for exertion; ill-health, real or fancied;
indulgent friends, and much more
often by self-indulgence. That idle
ness is one of the seven deadly sins
gives them no sort of ooncern; it is
of the essence of their complaint to
have no feeling of their own infirmity.
They are asleep; they cannot tell their
dreams, for they do not even know that
they are dreaming.
Giving up, nerveless relaxation, has
become a habit, and to them as to the
immortal Mr. Toots, though from a dif
ferent motive nothing is of any conse
quence But whereas it was his own
convenience, his own feelings, his own
comiort, tnat never were of conse
quence to the unselfish Toots, it is pre
cisely your convenience, your feelings,
your comfort, that are, to the idle man,
of no consequence. Floating idly about
"on the great Pacific ocean of indo
lence" he makes first one compromise
then another, with self-respect, until
he ends by sacrificing the esteem of his
fellow-men on the private altar of his
own sloth. His affairs get first mud
died, then embarrassed, then decaying,
then desperate, and he feebly flatters
himself with an idea of repose, now
that all is gone.
FOND OF LETTER H.
Men Use It for an Initial In Names When
Any Other Would Do.
"It's a peculiar thing," said the
knowing clerk in a hotel which is noted
more for its hospitality than it Is for its
inquisitiveness into the character of its
guests, it s a peculiar thing the fond
ness that the average man has for the
letter H as an initial. Now, I don't
suppose that there are more middle
names beginning with H than with
any other letter M or R or S or B but
nine men OUl 01 leu, 11 "ley re iu
doubt about a middle initial, decide on
II," quotes the New York Sun. "Now,
my middle initial is W, but for every
. . a . ' . . V i
letter I get, except from people I know
well, that has my initial right, I get
three in which it is put down II. It's
very seldom, too, that you'll find a man
with sufficient strength of character to
leave out the middle initial of the man
he's writing to if he doesn't know it, so
he clapB in an II and lets it go. There
seems to be a prevailing superstition
that a man isn't iust what he ought to
be unless he has a middle name, and
that the chances are very strong that j
tliat name-begins with the eighth letter
of the alphabet.
"Now, here s another instance: Cast
your eyes over this page 01 our regis
ter. That is mostly late guests who
drop in here late at night and sign
names other than their own. See the
result: 'Charles II. Jones,' 'John II.
Smith, 'George II. Robinson,' 'A. II.
Brown, 'F. W. Brown, anu so on.
There are ten names on that one page
the middle initial of which is II. Now,
that letter isn't nny easier to write than !
any other letter; it certainly isn t any
more ornamental, and I can't see that
in any respect it has an advantage over
the rest of the alphabet, let the
human race sticks to it with a fidelity
worthy of a more Important cause. I'd
like to have some wise man tell me
why."
