About Vampires.
The original meaning of vampire, which
appellation has been given to certain blood
sucking bats, was that it was unusually sup
posed to be the soul of a dead man which
quits tbe buried body by night to suck the
blood of living- persons. This belief chiefly
prevails in Slavonic lands, it is thought
that those wbo turn vampires are generally
wizards, suicides, and the persons who have
come to a violent end, or have been cursed
by their parents or by the church. Travel
ers describe the wounds inflicted by tbe
large sharp-edged incisors of the South
American vampire bat as being' similar to
those caused by tbe razor when shaving;
a portion of the skin is sbaved off, and a
large number of served capillary vessels be
ing thus exposed, a constant flow of blood is
maintained, f Tom this source tne blood is
drawn through the exceedingly narrow gul
let too narrow for anything solid to pass
Into tbe intestine-like stomach, whence it is
probably drawn off during the slow process
of digestion, while the animal, sated with
food, is hanging in a state of torpidity from
tbe roof of its cave or from tbe inner aides
at a hollow tree.

PAT AND THE BUFFALO.
An Arivatttur In Which Mr. O'Fljua tint
Into a Tight 1'ltte.
There Is a good story told of an
Irishmau s adventure with a butiaio
bull in early Montana dnys that Is
grotesquely amusing. The name of
the Irishman was Putrlck O'FHnn
Anyhow, Pat had only been on this
side or the Atlantic miotic two years,
and during that time had not improved
in the Queen's Kngllsh to any great
extent, but.as will be seen, rather clung
with tenacity to the pure brogue of
Erin.
On arriving In this country Pat
turned his "niuuitton' to raiironiung,
and had scarcely set his foot un
America's soil ere' he accepted a big
job of shoveling dirt, and a week after
hrtd been rushed off to the Northwest.
and was soutt far out on the frontier
digging away with his shovel as only a
hearty irishmau knows how.
At that time there were stilt a few
buffaloes along the contemplated line
nf the Northern Pacific Railroad, aud
Pat, having learued to ride a horse and
shoot a guu, though both very awk
wardly, went out oue uay with a party
of travelers to have some Nimrodic
sport, lu the course of a few hours
travel the party rau upon a herd of
buffaloes, and, after considerable
maneuvering, each hunter selected out
his game aud started for the expected
pria. The eountrr was very rough in
the vicinity where tlie game was sighted
and the chase was of the most exekhiff
character, each hunter belug separated
from the others, and, of course, attack
ing bis game single-handed. How
ever, the huuters experienced good
luck with the exception of Pat, who had
chosen the toughest old bull in the
herd aud made a dashing charge.ehoot
Ing him, but not fatally. As the
animal was quite Ueet-footwd and angry
it turned upon its assailant, and the
horse becoming frightened at the ap
pearance of the enraged brute, reared
and plunged, and soon bad Pat sprawl
ing ou tbe ground, while the equine
steed escued as fast as its legs could
carry It. lu fact. Pat and the bull were
left alone to tight it out in whatever
wav they might choose.
Pat had beeu somewhat shocked by
the sudden fall, and at first seemed
rather slow to recover, but when he
observed the buffalo charging down
upon h i m, w it h every part of the
animal's anatomy fairly bristling with
rage, he scrambled upon his bauds and
knees and fairly pawed the ground in
his hante to reach a small cliff of rocks
near by that apeared to offer him a
meager but npmrentlv his ouly chauee
to etcae. Fortunately tuck " was iu
Pat's favor, for between two good
sixed rocks he found nu opening that
would just barely admit his body far
enough to prevent the bull from reach
ing him, aud yet quite close enough to
tantalize the minister into the most
furious rujje. In the fall lie received
Pat let drop his gun, aud so was en
tirely without any weapon of defense,
and, but for his companions, might
have been imprisoned forau ittdetiuite
period. Whin the rest of the hunters
bad killed their game anil had gathered
together for the homeward march, Pat
was found to be missing, aud search
was at ouce instituted for him. The
hunters began making a circuit, aud
while riding up behind some bushes,
they heard a voice as of some oue
talking, nppareutly engaged in an
animated conversation. I'hey stopped
aud listened and were soon convinced
that it came from Pat. It was evident
too, that he had gotten into a predica
ment, for just at that moment he was
saying:
"An, ye uly loo kin' baste, what are
yees try in to cum in here for? Have
yees no si use at all, at all? The divil
set tire lor yeivt. for the great black
heavy crayihur that yees are. Sure
it s the likes o' yees ought to have been
banished from the Hod long ago.
BegoU if 1 hail my gun I'd put an eud
to 3'ee a foolin1 round here and dis
turhin a niawii from hi rest a yees
do. The divil a bit cm ve hmk me.
and It's a great pity for the likes of
vees to bo tliro.vin' away vour strength
like ye are tloiu', Yt-f bettlter be
savin it up to pull the tinder grass and
get lal on. so yees had.
But the bntTiilo didn't seem to appre
ciate Pat's advice, but kept hooking
away in an effort to get at its enemy.
"And it's try in to cum in, yees are,
agiuP" exclaimed Pat, "Whin yees
squase through between these two
stones ye' it be mighty thin. so yees will,
aud its the divil of a sixeneo I'd be
givin fcryer hide full of holes aud the
hair peeled off."
The bull ceased operatious tor a
minute and backed off a pace, evident
ly hoping to entice Pat to come out
from his secure retreat, but Pat iaw
the game and expressed himself thusly:
"Yees needn't be tazin' me to cum
out at all, at all. I know the tricits o
yees too welt to be taken in aft her
that kind oi style. Away with yees.
Yees cau tackle thim stones to yer
heart's contint, but mind and keep away
from doing me any harm. If I only
had yees by the tail Td pay yes off for
bothering a man that never done yees
no harm.'1
About this time the hunters concluded
that they had had enough fun at Pat's
expense, and going un closer drew a
oeau on tne ouuaio with ineir Win
chesters, and the animal tumbled down
dead as a door unit. Pat was quite
overjoyed at his deliverance. (Jlooe

What Is the Model Husband Idke?
One of tho big New York papers has
offered a prize of $100 to the woman
who shall send iu tbe most praiseworthy
description of a model husband. It is
interesting to note the replies. Oue
woman thinks he is a husband who
uever takes a night off";-another says
her ideal man is oue that gives her full
control of the purse-strings; a third
says she likes a husband that goes his
way aud gives her full permission . to
go hers; but most unique of all is the
letter from a dear, sweet, clinging
Vine, who says that her Oak must be
uoble! O, so noble! And give a test
of his true inward nobility by inventing
a new pet name for her every day.
upon a sweet, pretty calendar, nought
for the purpose, she is recording the
names as he reels off new ones each
loving morn. The regulation. orthodox,
old pet titlea of '-Dear little girl,"
'"Jolly," 'Mretsey, "lootsey - Woot-

have been thrown completely in the
shade by the coinings of this model
husband.

"It Is gonontlly tiipoed (hat fishes
take no care whiiiever of their young,
leaving them entirely In the attention
of uutnrrt." says Professor Theodore
Gill, of Washington. "B:it the fact Is
very much otherwise with ninny spe
cies. The most remarkable point,
however, regarding certain kinds of
tinny creatures lu their parental rela
tions Is that mules do the care taking,
and not the females. Very interesting
discoveries have been recently made
with regard to the habits of uest-build-lug
tUhen, the cat-fish among others.
"If you will go out any lime during
the mouth of August in this latitude,
you will see in thu streams and ponds
big enttUh of the common sort, each
oue accompanied by a swurm of smalt
fry. In each cave the old one is a
mule and he Is engaged lu taking care
of his nffripring. If an Intruder comes
near he will dssh at him ntid drive him
away. It has been kuowu for a long
while that cttttishes hail this way of
guarding their young, but only lately
has It beeu ascertained that it was the
Sap tltfh which did the cnretuklug.
ome time back there was a pair of
cat-tUhes in one of the aquaria at the
building of the Fish Commission. At
spawning time eggs were laid, and oue
of the parents kept watch over them,
not permitting the other to come near.
The young were duty hatched and
thrived, belug cared for iu this way
uutil they were big enough to look out
for themselves. Then the tish which
hud stood guard was takeu out and dis
sected, the result being that It was
found to be the male.
iu their native ponds aud brooks
you will Hud large broods of young
enttUh as big ns three-fourths of an
Inch in length remaining together in
Docks, each Uock accompanied by the
male. Sometimes the latter will swim
slowly along in the center of the flock
aud at other times alongside. Inlay
Ing their eggs the parent cat-lis lies
select a spot w lie re the water is quiet,
if possible protected by aquatic plants,
and there they make'a nest, perhaps
eight inches by six. inclosing the
spawn. The neat has a soft outer en
velope, aud over it the male hovers,
forcing fresh water through the mass
by rapid vibration of its tins, until
after ubout a week they are hatched.
"Sometimes the male cattish takes
care o( its young In a still more pecu
liar manner. There is a kind found In
thu sea, the eggs laid by which are as
big as a small bullet. These eggs are
found in the mouths of the males,
which do this to protect them. After
the eggs are laid the papa cattish takes
them iuto his mouth and kees them
there until they are all hatched, when
they go out and take care of them
selves. "But this method Is not confined to
the catHshes. There are found in
Africa and South Africa a species
which resemble the sunlith of our own
streams. These cichlids,' as they are
called, are also plentiful In Texas aud
Palestine. They are often fouud with
their cheeks fairly bulging with young.
In tbe sea of Galilee the cluhllds are so
numerous that the miraculous catch of
the time when St. Peter lished there
might be "repealed any day, it being
the manner of these 'ibdius to move
about on the top of the water in solid
masses, covering many squnre vards
aud making a nolsn like that of rain
oouriug."

On the walls nf the small room of
Kxplorer Herbert Ward in Iomlon are
divers sketches of the beautie of Af
rica. There is a sketch of a woman of
the Bakongo a woman of the Oupotos
one of the most savage tribe of the
Great Kiver. lu this sketch the face la
disfigured by a series of cicatrices,
making it as hideous as can be well
imagiued. This form of tattooing is
produced by making wounds in the
flesh of about half an inch in length
and never allowing them to heal prop
erly; when they show a tendeucy to do
so the Oupotos pull thcin roughly
apart; the result is a line aud a con
glomeration of Hues of sears, horrible
to behold.
The Oupotos. he tells you. in their
cooking arrangements are not alto
gether suggestive of a Parisian cordon
blue; It is not quite nice to sit down to
a dinner company where the usual
necklace is couiosed of human teeth,
neither is the pariah dog as savory as
might be suggested.
As to tbe ireatmeutof women by the
natives, and particularly by the follow
ers of Tip poo. to give one instance
take the story of Sapenfu. as told by
Mr. Deane to Mr. Herlert Ward.
"Stipenia, the daughter of Kossongo,
had been given to Tippoo Tib as -a
pledge of friendship by her father, but
she. being of the Wachongera-meno
tribe, was ill-treated by the Arabs, so
much so that she run away to us; on
bciug examined im truees of ill-treat-nieut
could be discovered, and. as Mr.
Dcaue had no right to interfere where
there was no ill uage. she was con
ducted back to her Arab master. After
a few days she came to us again with
her back covered with lashes from a
(up and her bodv covered with
bruise, telling u that she bad been
terribly Hogged.
"We kept her, and some davs after.
wheu her tyrants tvi-im to seek her,
Mr. Deaue told them (.h it he could not
think of letting her be taken back
tigaiu to be treated with such brutal
violence; that he was scut to the coun
try to see justice done; ami that, as
representative of the Congo Free State,
he intended to do his .duty. It Is
rather unfortunate that this woman
should havo paid buck the kindness
shown her with particular ingratitude.
She might have been of : the greatest
use ouiy never was to the onuso in

beats per minute during the whole
time he resided at that level. His res
pirations wereofteu twice as numerous
iu thu minute as they were in tbe or

would auicken both pulse and respira

the level the greater the ilitliculty of
running or walking fast. He crossed
the Gurla -M;indha(u mountain at a

that the native guides of the mountains

General J. E. B. Marshnll contrite
ntcs to the department of '-California"
iu The Century Magazine the following
Incideut which occurred to the Hon.
I J. D. Glhnnn, now a member of the
Gnnerul Court of Massachusetts.
With the news of the discovery of
gold In California in 1848 United States
army officers statioued there seut speci
mens home to their friends and to the
War Department as curiosities. But, to
the best of Mr. (ill man's knowledge,
the Hrst California gold exhibited and
sold in Wall street was ttiken there by
himself on the first day of March, 1849.
Mr. Gilman was the first passenger to
reach New York from San Frnuclsco
after the discovery, and brought with
him a quantity of the ore, finding it a
more profitable remittance than the
coin which he bad brought from Hon
olulu, and for which the miners gladly
exenanguu ineir uume ac a iiuera.1 dis
count. Mr. Oilman tells the Tollow
iug story of his first day lu New York.
"I reached New York veryearlrin
the morning, and, being an entire
stranger, accepted the friendly offices
of the purser nf the steamer, who took
me to me bunion rioiei, men Kept uy
Simeon Iceland, afterward of the Me
tropolitan Hotel.
"After breakfast Mr. Lei and kindly
took me In charge, to assist me In pro
curing a costume more befitting an ap-
pearuuee in new xont than my Cali
fornia outfit. Among the plaeeji visit
ed In this tour of reconstruction was
Lovejoy s hair-dressing rooms at the
corner of Beekman street and Park
Row. Here, as everywhere, the talk
was of me wonttenui news from Cali
fornia,
"While still nnder the hands of the
barber, and sleepily listening to his
freely given views upon the exciting
topic of the day, I saw Mr. Lcland
apptonching me, accompanied by a
Hue-looking, irank, open-faced man,
who advanced buttoning on his collar.
with hit gingham necktie banging over
his arm, ns if be had no time to lose.
Mr. Lulnud Introduced him to me by a
name which at first had no significance
for me. though Its fame had already
reached the islands of the sea as that
of the great Moral Showman. Said
be courteously:
"I hear that you are just from Cali
fornia, the hrst passenger to arrive
from the land of gold. This is very
iutercsihig. You tutu tell us all about
it. May 1 ask if you bare had auy
conversation with any one on the sub-
icct since your arrival?' 1 replied that
bad unlv just landed, and had had
no opKrtutifty to talk about the mat
ter; Ah, very good, very good!' said
he. Then please efort'f, let me beg of
you, till you have seen me ngatu. Mr.
Lei and has kindly promised to call
with yon at my "oflice. If you will
write "California" on your card, the
door-keefier will admit you at once.'
He bowed and took bis leave.
"Engrossed by my own interesting
concerns. I did not think to ask auy
questions of Mr. Iceland about my iu
terrogrttor. and learneM nuthiug more
of him till we found ourselves at the
tloor of B.irnu ms Museum. We were
conducted to the private office of the
redoubtable proprietor, who, politely
seating us. proceeded at once to busi
ness. "Well. sir. you know we all want to
know the way to California nowaday
By what route did you eome?
"'Across the Isthmus.'
"Ah. very good! Then you can tell
us all about mule traveling. Avery
interesting route. Cuts the journey
short. Some danger, of course. Did
you go by the same route?'
"T went out around the Horn, sir?
Alt, that's good! Many of our
people will want to go that way.
Cheaper route. Of course you know
about miniugP
"I have nut beeu to the mines my
self. I repi'ed.
"Oh I Ah! Well, yon understand the
process, no doubt, and know all about
the life there. You've heard it talked
about?1
"I replied that I bad not heard
much else talked about for the last six
months.
""I thought so! I thought so! You
are just the man we want, sir! Just
tbe very man! Now here's my plan,
sir. I've got a plan, sir which cannot
fail of success, and will prove highly
remunerative to both of us, sir. This
city is wild with excitement, as you
know; jnst crazy with the idea of gold
In California. Thousands are seeking
for information about how to get there,
what to do, where to find tho gold.
Now for my plun. I've had a speci
men lump of gold prepared, weighing
twenty-live pounds. No sham, sir
real gold. You can depend upon it; I
can bring you all the certificates von
want to convince you of the fact.
"-But I interrupted, twenty-five
pounds! I never heard, of so large a
piece being found.1
"Mr. Baruum seemed slightly taken
aback at this, and asked what was the
largest piece I had hoard of. I replied.
'Seven ounces; but it had not reached
San Fruncico when I left.
"'Seven ouucesP exclaimed he.
Why, that Is too small. Every man
who is going .out expects to pick up
rocks of ill Seven ounces! Welt,
well!
"He looked confounded for a mo
ment; then throwing back his shoul
ders as if to shake off his disappoint
ment, he rallied to his well-arranged
plan. 'Well, sir, I'll tell you what we
can do You prepare a tdiort lecture
on the subject, .to be delivered iu my
lecture room, not over fifteen min
utes long, better ten. and then be
prepared to answer questions (they'll
be sure to come thick and fast) about
the different routes, the mining, wages,
means and cost of living; just how to
do it, you understand. We will have
a small table on the stage, with my
twenty-five-pound lump of gold on it.
As you are talking you can handle it;
just pass your baud over it now and
then and and I wouldn't have you
tell a lie about it for anything. Mr.
Gilman but if you see they get the
idea that that's the kind of lumps they
they may Hud. a fortuue's made, and
we'll share it. .
"Mv renly sprang involuntarily to
my lips: 'But what a perfect humbug
that would be!
"With a bright, beaming smile the
great showman patted me gently on
the shonlder. and with a significant
look said. 'My dear sir, the bigger the
humbug, the' better the people will
like it.'
"With thanks I respectfully declined
the tempting proposition. Mr. Bar
uum very courteously urged me to con
sider it, and hoped" I would see my
way clear in some way to give the
people the information 'they so much
desired. But I was too impatient to
reach my home in Maine to do this.
Under Mr. Iceland's guidance I visited
severai of the banks and moneyed in
stitutions in Wall street, where I ex
hibited my specimens of the gold, both
coarse and tine."
But Mr. Gilman failed to improve
his golden opportunity to make his
own and tbe eminent showman's for
tuue. Noble Elevator Men.

A Id t tie Girl's Diary In the East.
I will only describe the howling aud
whirling dervishes. First we went to
the whirling dervishes. After we had
been sitting arouud the circle the
dervishes came lu one after another.
The first one was the sheakh. He was
a very old mau and be had a big hump
on his back. He was clothed in a
brown mantle thrown oyer his should
ers and he walked very slowly Indeed.
His step was about a half a foot long.
After they all were in they sat down
on the prayer mats. Then they all
came and bowed to the sheakh then
they began whirling. It was beautiful
to see their while skirts all stand out.
Thev stuck out ns if they were made
to slick out. Every one of them held
their right palm of the hand down and
the left up towards heaven.
Then they stnptd and nil sat down
on their mats again. They did this
same thing over several times. The
second time we went away to the
howling dervishes. When we got there
it was quite crowded and after a while
the door opened and even body went
In. We had not been sitting there
long when tho dervishes came in.
When they had alt seated themselves
they began to say Alls. Alia. First
they said it very slowly and soft and
then they said it louder and foster and
more louder and faster. They shook
their heads every time they said any
thing from one aide to the other and
every time they sjtid it loud and fast
they would slmM them very violent),
Indeed. Some of n hem had strangling
long hair. f though the sheakh was
very good looking. He had a very
pretty little son there with him and
wheu wh went out lie made such a
broad smite at us. One of the men
f ot kind of crazy and he made a fright
ul noise and called Alia. Alia. The
Arab right next to him took ahold of
him ail through until the eud. They
did the same thing over aud over
again. When it was through we went

A Matrimonial Strateglnc.
"Brown. I don't see how It Is that
your girls all marry off as soon as they
gut old enough, while none of mine
can marry."
Oh, that's simple enough! 1 marry
my girls off on the buckwheat-straw
principle.
"But what is that principle? I have
never heard of it before."
"Well, I used to raise a good deal of
iuTck wheat ami It puzzled me to know
how to get rid of the straw. Nothing
would eat it and it was a great bother
to roe. At last I thought of a plan.
"I stacked my buckwheat straw
nicely aud buMt a high rail fence
around 1L
"My cattle, of course, concluded
that It was something good and at
once tore down the fenoe and began to
eat the straw.
"I drove them away and put up the
fenoe a few times, but the more I drove
them away the more anxious they be
came to eat the straw.
"After this had been repeated a few
times the cattle determined to eat the
straw, and eat it thev did, every bit of
it.
"As I said. I marry my girls off on
the same principle.
"When a young man I don't like be
gins calling on my girls I encourage
him In every way 1 cau.
"I tell him to come as often and
stay as late as he pleases, and I take
pains to hint to the girls that I think
they'd better set their caps for Id in.
It works first-rate.
He doesn't make many calls, for
the girls treat him as coolly as they
can.
"Bat when a young fellow that I
like comes round a man that I think
would suit me for a son-in-law 1 don't
let him make many calls before I give
him to understand that he isn't wanted
around my house.
"I tell the girls, too, that they
should not have anything to do with
him, and give them orders never to
speak to him again.
The plan works first-rate. The
young folks begin to pity each ether:
and the next thing I know they are
eu gaged.
"When I see that they are deter
mined to marry I always give in and
pretend to make tbe best of it. That's
the way I manage it." A'. Y. Weekly.
beaone From The Army. J
, In the army, with its vague and fe-wH
and distant rewards, there may be and
there are rivalries iu devotion and
daring, but there is no competition for
filace and money as there is iu civil
ife; and yet the soldiers ideal being
duty, the performance of duty seems
sufficient. It is a state of things which
cau suggest much to those wbo are
foud of baffling the hope of better
things in ns with the assertion that it
is contrary to human nature to act
from any but interested and selfish
motives. Human nature is a great
mystery, and we have not yet begun to !
solve it; but it appears that a number
of men drawn at random from society,
and trained to a belief in duty as the :
chief good, will keep on not only living
it but dyiug it- We civilians talk much, !
we almost talk solely of our rights, but ;
in the army it seems that men talk ,
chiefly of their duties, when they talk ;
at all. and never of their rights. These
things are true of all ranks; the ideal is
tbe same from the private to the
general, and it seems to correct all the
mistaken tendencies of tbe time before
they became soldiers.
If, as Ruskin has fancied, tbe army
should ever serve ns as tbe norm of the
civil state, and we should come to have
"soldiers of tbe plough-share as well as
soldiers of the sword," it might not be
long before we should be told that it
was against human nature to act
selfishly, and that to be recreant to the '
general welfare in any aim or deed
was to be guilty of conduct unbecom
ing a citizen and a gentleman. How
ever this may be, it is certain and it is
significant that those who have at
tempted to dream out a future brighter
than this present have always bad
something like a military organization
in their eyes; but these visionaries have
somehow" beheld little of the gayety
and enjoyment which are quite as
compatible with the performance of
duties as with the assertion of rights.
