He was a Ro man officer of very high rank under the Emperor Jimtlulan In the elxtta century. .He wa n very able man. and under bU direction tbe Onant-ea of tbe government NourlHhcd wouder fully. . InclUeiitnlly . he auiasaed a great fortune for lilmMf. Hut be was' very corrupt, and the reveuues were raised "ou the deoth of thousands, the poverty of million, tbe ruins of title ami the denotation of provinces." He lived uioMt extravagantly and In dulged In all wirt of wicked prac tice. . JSut hi life of oatentatloas profligacy was ainldeuly changed into one of abject poverty. Though guilty of many crimes, he wa accused of one of which he eeiu to have been Innocent and was condemned to be scourged like tbe lowest of criminals. Nothing of hi vat fortune waa left blm but one old ragged cloak, and It Is said that for mcvcu years ho begged brend In tbe street of cities that once bad trembled at bis name. A Passant Bey Philosopher. Very remarkable was tbe boyhood of tbe celebrated James Ferguson, who was born at Keith. In Peuffshlre. Scot land. In 1710. LI I father, woo waa a day laborer, (audit blm to read and write utid scut him to school for three months at Keith. At the uge of eight be constructed a clock of wood that kept renmrknbly good time and after ward made it wouden watch with a whalebone spring. He began to earn hi flrwt money by denning and mend ing clock Ui the neighborhood. Ill astronomical pursuits commenced soon afterward, hla futher having sent him to a neighboring farmer, who employed him In watching hi sheep. While thus occupied he amused himself at night by watching the start) and during the day In making nnxlclx. In 1747 be pub lished hl.i huult mi tlio iihenomeim of the hnn-est muon. and thl was fol lowed by other iiHtroimmlcal works. Ills books rtcelved the npirovnl of the Royal society, ttefore which he fre quently appeared. How Boston Might B Destroyed. One of the niont novel metboda yet conceived of destroying a city Is do scribed In Popular Science Monthly. Tbe author says: "An enemy need not bother muster tng battleships or waste hla time bom barding from afar the Intellectual hub of this land of ours. In time of peace lot' him hare bla splca build a big pumping station right In the middle of that city, aud at the proper time start drawing indiscriminately from tho ground below the water saturating the subsoil. You know a large num ber of BoHtou'a big buildings rest upon floating foundations. Pump out the water In tbo supporting quicksand, and down thoso structures would tum ble Into the yawning cavities so creat ed. It woutd be far more effective in its demolition than the projectiles of a hostile fleet" 8altlng a Census. Ernest Udgren. formerly commercial agent for a railroad at Nanking, Chi na, and later with tbe Pacific Mall company at Ilongkong, la thus quoted In the Kansas City Star: "No one knows how many people there are In China." be said. "The cenaua figure say 400,000.000. but that la a guess. No census ever baa been taken. The government arrives at its population figures by an old method. It baa monopoly on salt By esti mating the average per capita con sumption of salt and dividing the total consumption of salt by that figure It la able to make a fair guess." Amsrloa'a Lsrgsst 8nake. Tbe largest American serpent la the anaconda, which may attain a length of thirty, feet It Inhabits tropical America and I a handsome animal, with dork round. spots scattered over Its wbolo body on a groundwork of rich brown. It la very fond of water and haunts the banks of rivers, lakes and streaais, there lying lu wait for any deer or peccary which may coma to the margin of the water to drink. Philosophy That Fallsd.

In fact makes a study of eggs all his life, and he Is not par ticular whether they are heu's eggs or turtle's eggs so long a they are eggs. It Is Impossible to deceive tbe animal with regard to their freshness. If a dozen fresh and partly fresh eggs are mixed up together the wily little ani mal will pick out the fresh ones with a certainty and quickness that are posi tively amaxlng. At tbe soo he Is pro vided only with the genuine newly laid. He would have to be in a very bad way before touching an egg that was "shop laid." Matrimony. Matrimony Is like freemasonry no one knows the secret until he la Initiat ed. It la like an eel trap-very easy to get Into, but bard to get out of.

Minerals Sensitive to Light - The elemeut selenium has long at tracted attention because of the pecul iar effect light exerts on its electrical conductivity. Scientists have now dla covered that copier oxldo has proper ties similar to seleulum, aays Popular Mechanics. Another mineral recently put In the same class is stlbnlte. an antimony mineral. Other materials, such . sulphnr, shellac, paraffin and unthrncene. a coal tar product, will also exhibit odd conductivity effects under the influence of light, but to a leaner tleitfee.
