Colonel Clark E. Carr o f Galeabnrg, who was minister to Denmark under tho Hanisou administration, was in Wash ington one flay when Lincoln was presi dent. “ I'm going to tho W h ite House to see Abe, ” said Owen L ovejoy to Carr as they met in front of tho treasury build ing. Carr went w ith him. They were Ihowu into the president's working room, nnd soon after Lincoln came in. lit) ware a long garment which m ight have been cut from it bathroom pattern or tlio cover o f a prairie schooner. His hair was more frouzolod than usual, and the carpet slippers were worn down und without heels. Tho condition and •ppeurancu o f the presidential ho siery were such as would havo mado Jerry Simpson envious, provided the stories they told on Jerry were true, which they never were. The president gave Ids callers an Illin ois greeting and then shoved np one o f tlio sleeves of his curious garment anti pointed ont to his visitors tlio inflamed condition of his arm. “ Yon knew I had tho smallpox, ” said Lincoln in a cold blooded manner. Love- joy suid yes and proceeded to talk about other matters, while Carr’s few hairs had inclinations to stand up, nnd ho moved ul>out in his chair as if it con tained dynamite. Tlio visit over, tho caller passed ou t Once in tho air, Clark asked Lovejoy: “ Did yon know tho president had the smallpox when w e went there?” “ C ertainly,” was tho answer. " Y o u d------d scoundrel!” shrieked Carr. “ W h y didn’t you say so?" “ I ’ve lint 1 it , ” replied Lovejoy, “ and l supposed yfin had. ” “ W ell, I never hnd i t ! " roared Carr. “ But if I do have it now I want you to give mo a certificate that I caught tlio disease from Abo Lincoln. That w ill be something. “ But Lovejoy had no occasion to do so, us Lincoln had tho varioloid only.— C hi cago Tribuna_________________ Captain !»1rKny »m l H I» PuHHcngcr«. Tho fact is that the excellent captain if the Umbria, Captain M cKay, was a little more open with his passengers tli in was finite prudent. W ith the laudable desiro of sparing them any unnecessary anxiety, ho informed them plainly of the cause of thesto>]>nge of their course and genially assured them o f their perfect safety. So far. so good. The passengers had a right to ask that much, und it was hut sensible to let them know tho truth sml not imagine worse things for them ►elves But what the passengers hud n : right to nslc for was information ns to tlio course that tho captain was going to pursue, anil Captain McKay made a mistake in not snubbing the first gentle man who questioned him on the subject. ‘ W hy don’t you send np rockets?” one of the passengers is suid to have plain tively demanded. “ There w ill Is* time enough for rochets when a vessel comes near enough to see them ," answered tlio captain evasively, but courteously. Tlio politeness was fatal. A fter the implied admission that rockets and other ships were necessary to their salvation the passengers had a terriffic hold nixm tho unlucky commander o f the ship. Had lie only answered, as lie would have boon |>orfoctly justified in doing and as a great many other captains would certainly have done, "W h a t busi ness is that o f yours?" he might have made himself a little -un|K<pulur, but he would have saved himself from much further worry. The passengers seem to have actually divided themselves into tw o different camps anil discussed a vote of confidence or censure. Happily com mou sense curried tlio day, uml a vote of confidence was carried. What would have been done hail the vote o f censure been passeil we cannot guess, hut this at least wo may say that if that motion hail tieon carried it would have lieen the plain duty o f tho captain to put the mover, seconder and principal supporters of the resolution in irons.— Loudou ¡Spec tator.

FREAKS OF NATURE. P E R V E R T E D VERSE. H om e C u r i o u s T h i n » . T h a t A m u « « a n d A m toni»h Men of Science. Nature's freaks of fancy afford a strange Btudy. People are constantly sending to the National museum sup posed fossil animals and other oddities which are in reality mere accidental forms carved by water. A pebble in a stream gathers about itself grains of sand until an odd shaped lump is made. A favorite shape for such lumps is that o f a turtle w ith four legs, a head and tail, cveu the lines of the shell be ing sometimes distinct Sim ilar concre tions of carbonate of iron and clay as sume the appearance of petrified pea nuts. Break one, and you w ill always find inside a small spiral winkle shell, which has served as the nucleus. A queer counterfeit of this kind, forward ed to Washington not long ago, was an alleged fossil foot of a child, w ith a lit tle stocking on, the latter showing signs o f wear ou the hall of the foot and on tho heel. It was only a concretion, as was likewise what appeared to be a pet rified oyster ou the shell One eminent scientist has been amus ing him self of late by making imitation spider webs out of quart/, fibers. It is well kitowu that copper w ire can be drawn to a fineness much less than the thickness o f a hair— iu fact, to the d i ameter o f the one-thousandth part o f an inch. But glass may be spun finer than copper, w h ile even the finest spun glass is not so fine as silk fiber. The latter, however, is coarse compared w ith the threads that can be obtained by m elting quartz under a blowpipe and pulling it ou t Such threads may be reduced to a thinness of one-millionth o f an inch. Drawn to such tenuity, they are invisi ble under a microscope of the highest power. Y e t they are stronger in propor tion to their thickness than the best quality of bar steel. Euough thread like this could be mado from a single cubic inch o f quartz to go around the world 658 times. A grain of sand barely large enough to be visible to the naked «ye would yield 1,000 miles of thread. Obviously no practical use can be mado o f threads so extremely fine. Comparatively coarse ones were woven into cobwebs by the scientist aforesaid. They would not catch flies because they xvere too slippery, having no gluten on them, like real cobwebs. This difficulty was got over by moistening a straw in castor oil anil gently stroking tho threads w ith it; then the webs captured flies fairly well. But a cobweb is incomplete without a spider, so it occurred to the experimenter to attract an arachnid to his web by the buzzing of a fly. It was difficult to make a fly buzz to order, but a satisfactory imitation was produced by perm itting a tuning fork to vibrato against the quartz fibers. This fetched the spider right away. The scientist also amused himself w ith blowing bubbles of quartz, which looked exactly like the most beautiful soap bubbles.— Washington Star.
