    PONY PENNING.
A. FftTorita Bport of the People of
Obtaooteague Island.
Bmp Mfiwfc T a UUI AiamM Art

ChinootMfme and Amtetgne
had their hundredth annual pony pen
ning. Chincoteague n email inland
fan the Atlantic close to the shore of Ac
eomack cocnty, Va. Aasateagae ii
tang, namnr psninsola lyin outside of I
Chincoteague and protecting It from
the assaults of the Atlantic Chin
eoteague ie a glittering- Uttle klaud,
brilliani with sand and salt water,
densely peopled, well wooded and
haunted by mocking birds. There is
neither poverty nor crime there, drnnk
eaneas is almost unknown, and doors
are always unlocked. It Is the boast 1
of Chmcotesgne that no slave ever lired
upon its soil, and that the island re
mained true to the union throughout
the wax. There are no better sailors
anywhere than the people of Chin
"oteagus, and there are no stancher
title boats than the Chmcoteagne ca
ooe with double leg-of-mutton sails. j
Nobody knows positively the origin of ;
he C&BOOtesgue ponies. It is only
. mown that they have roamed the
narshy pastures of the islands for at
cast a century, and there is a tradition
hat the ancestors of the ponies came
ihore from a wrecked ship in the
ighteenth century. These, doubtless,
ere full grown horses, and the Chin
teague pony of to-day is a degener
iie, through droughts in summer and
xposure in the open pastures through
oug winters. But degenerate as
ie is, the Chtacoteafrne pony is!
i fine, hardy, and often beauti
ul animal, with strength out of!
proportion to his size, and. when well 1
jroken, has strength, agility andj
ieed. He is from ten to tweire hands
itghand from six to eigh; hundred-
(mnd m weight. From two hundred
:intf fifty to four hundred of these little
creatures roam the Uland pastures.
There are, perhaps, half ah mauy on the
lower end of Asssteague. !
A stallion leads upon the pastures a j
group of from ten to twenty-live mares
and colts. The leader is on the con-j
stant lookout for danger, and zt his;
snort his whole polygamous family take I
to their heels. The ponies are really '
fcir from wild, and one may easily ap
proach within fifty or twenty yards of
a group at pasture. The older stallions
become fierce and quarrelsome, and
have to be removed from the pastures
from time to time, lest they should de
stroy one another or the younger stal
lions. They are all excellent swimmers,
and when the pastures become bare on
Chincoteague they frequently swim to
the neighboring islets, where the salt
grass is still green. It is not uncom
mon to see from the top of Assateague
light a group of horses bathing in the
surf. The colts are born and nurtured
in the open pastures, and the annual
uuny penning is for the double purpose
of branding these colts and selling
some of the older horses.
Pony-penning day is still a fete day
on Chincoteague. The pen for the
. horses is built near the center of the
Tillage, and on the morning of the
pony penning men and boys mounted
on swift and well-broken ponies ride :
out to the pastures to drive in the wild
creatures. The groups of ponies are
slowly driven together on the pasture
and then started town ward. As the
pen is neared the guards thicken, so
that the whole band is easily driven '
into the in closure. Branding irons are
heated; men with rope nooses on the
end of long poles leap into the pens.
The colts are thrown to the ground and
held there while the iron is applied.
The branding done, the auction fol
lows. Unbroken horses fetch from
twenty-five to forty dollars each. Oth
ers, broken to harness, fetch as high
as sixty dollars. Well-matched pairs
sometimes fetch one hundred and fifty
dollars. The ponies have long been
the pets of children of well-to-do fam
ilies on the mainland, and of l iie years
h:ivs btcn sold orer a largu part of tue
Cniied States. They are larger than
Shetland ponies and more beautiful.

A FIFTY-MILE TOBOGGAN
Tte Tim Btfc Luabsr PmsM Is fta !
Grvuwt tm the World.
In ssmi-tropical Fresno county there
Is a place which, for risky, delightful
sport, beats all the toboggan slides on j
the continent. Think of the exhilarat-
wig joy of an uninterrupted slide of
fifty miles through great forests, along
the brinks of precipices, and down
rugged canyons, amid the wildest and j
most picturesque scenery to be found
in the country fifty miles without a I
break.
Such a thrilling experience has been 1
made possible by the recent completion !
at the great Pine Ridge lumber flume.
No other flume surpasses it, and it is i
doubtful if any other is equal to it in i
length and grandeur of the scenery
passed through in a journey from the ;
summit of one of the high spurs of the1
Sierra Nevada to the plains beneath, '.
fifty miles distant The flume has just
been completed to the little town of
Claris, twelve miles north of Fresno, '
and is fifty-two miles in length.
Flumes for floating lumber are so!
numerous in California that description
is superfluous except to say that this is
m general like all others, consisting of
boxes shaped like the letter V, and on
trestles varying in height from a few i
feet to one hundred, depending on the
character of the country traversed. !
The flume starts at Stevenson creek, !
, one of the tributaries of the Ban Joa-'
quin river, at an elevation of nearly six
thousand feet above the sea, and after
a winding course of fifty-two miles it
terminates in a vineyard twelve miles
out on the plains beyond the foot of the
c 100 n tain. The V-shaped trough car
ries the water which floats the lumber.
The flume boats in which the rapid
journeys are made down the flumes arc
simple. They are made the same shape
UleVtaaf theftum. Shaw
per end of the boat is closed by a board
nailed across, but the lower end, which
points down stream, is left open to let
out the water which splashes over the
sides of the boats from time to time.
One, two or three short boards arc laid
across for se&ts, depending upon how
many are to make the journey. A car
penter can manufacture one of these
boats in less than half an hour. The
boat is meant for only one journey, for
none is ever hauled back for another
voyage. Only a little preparation is
necessary for a trip of this kind, -and
half a dollar will buy enough lumber
for the boat, and a man is a poor car
penter indeed who cannot make his
own vessel. The trip is made with but
little danger. The principal trouble
is, when once started, there are com
para lively few places where one can
stop. The current iB generally so
strong and so rapid that it makes land
ing impossible, and the voyager can
onjy sit still and let the boat run.
THE MUSK RATS INTUITION.
As a WsaOMrProptMt He Can Giw Paints
to General tiraalej.
Judson Rockwell, of Wapping. has
great confidence in the meteorological
wisdom of the festive muskrat, and cer
tainly has some reason for his faith,
says a Connecticut correspondont of the
New York Sun. He believes that a
muskrat can foresee cold weather and
floods three or four days in advance with
far more accuracy than General Greeley
can with all his expensive, weather bu
reau. The muskrat Is an odd animal, ho
builds his house in the shallow water of
a pond or morass late in the fall, and his
personal comfort hinges on his ability
to foretell what the weather is going tb
be at long range. He must know when
he puts up his comical mud hut just
how heaw the February and spring
freshets will be, so tbat tne topenamber
of the house will be out of the wet when
the freshets swirl about it. On sunny
days in winter when the waters of the
ponds are free of ice, the muskrat claws
upon the subaqueous door of his dwell
ing and goes drifting about the
sparkling lake, his sleek black
nose and face just parting
the waves and leaving a long
triangular wake spreading afar as he
sails. On such days he lays in a supply
of trout and other fish, which heoatchoa
expertly, lurking behind a stump or
rock. But he must know two or three
days in advance of the approach of
cold ware that will fetter the .pond, so
that he can retire into his hut and solid
ly close up its submerged gate, banking
it with turf.
Judson Rockwell has watched musk
rats for many years, being a veteran
trapper, and his knowledge of their
traits enables him to predict the advent
of a cold wave with a correctness that
astonishes all his neighbors, who pin
their faith to the predictions of old
probabilities. Early one March while
Connecticut was basking in April-like
Bunshine and people in all parts of the
State were killing striped snakes and
picking dandelion greens, Judson visited
his muskrat traps and found three fine
minks in them. Rut it was by no means
glee on account of his profitable capture
that irradiated his face as he went back
to Wapping and hastened to the village
store with his budget of news. He had
made a discovery, and as soon as he re
covered breath enough he recounted it,
"The muskrats are closing up then
holes," said he, "and you can bet all
you're worth we shall have a cold wave
in less than four days. Now remember
that. Just three days later came the
coldest weather of the winter, which
flung a bridge of ice four or five inches
thick across every lake.
The muskratsign is new and the cred
it of it belongs to Judson Rockwell, of
Wapping.
ANECDOTES OF THE QUEEN.
8b Approved of Tronnelaff Tbat Vu
Adminhtcred to Wles-
Apropos of the queen's recent sojourn
at Balmoral a north of Scotland news
paper has been gleaning from among
the Deeside peasantry some new stories
about her majesty's early visits to her
Highland residence. One of these re
lates to the boyhood of the prince of
Wales, says the Scottish American.
The prince on one occasion, when he
had temporarily escaped from the sur
veillance of the parental eye, played a
trick on a young country lad whom he
saw approaching with a basket of eggs
on his arm. the result of the trick be
ing to break all or most of the eggs.
The lad was a tough Aberdonian and
could not brook this injury, so he
turned to and doubling his fists gave
the prince a thrashing in spite of the
letter's protest that he was the prince
of Wales.
"Prince an' a' though ye be,' said the
boy, "ye'd nae business tae break my
eggs." Just then the queen appeared,
having seen part of the fray. She
quietly said: "You are quite right, my
lad; he had no right to break your
eggs and he richly deserves what you
have given him." Her majesty after
ward mode inquiries about the boy
and sent him to school at her own ex
pense. Another story relates to her majesty's
visit to the cottagers in the neighbor
hood. On one occasion, when she had
been making calls among the cottage
women, she dropped in, on her way
back to the castle, at the house of an
old womcm who did not know her vis
itor. The old lady was lioth talkative
and querulous; and, referring to a
fete at which the queen ha 1 been pre
sented V.iz' (!ay, cmpiamed about peo

The colored marbles return their fresh
ness longer and can be repoushed alter
many years use.
The marble is extracted from the quarry
hi oblong blocks cut out by means of
wedges.
Except when designated for ststuary or
building purposes the first thing the manu
facturer does is to place the block of marble
under a gang-saw in order to saw it into
slabs. The gaug-saw consists merely of a
series of parallel saws, to which an oscilla
ting motion is imparted white they are kept
fed with sand and water. When they como
from the gang-saw the slabs are generally
about IV inches thick, so that thoy mxy
dress to one inch when rubbed on both
sides. The Blabs are then inspected. To the
inexperienced eye the rough slabs are much
alike, and while the good qualities of the
slab are only fuliy brought out under the
polisher's mop. the imperceptible defects
are also magnified very much. It is thorn
fore necessary to detect haws before the
polishing begins.
The perfect stabs are cut mto required
lengths by a rip-saw and passed to tite rub
bing bed to be rubbed smooth. The rubuiug
bed consists of a solid horizontal uuu-irun
wheel about four inches thick and usually
about twelve or thirteen feet in diamfr.
This wheel is fixed in a verucm shaft winch
revolves on two chilled steel friction bulls,
placed one upon the other, and incUxted 1-! a
cast-iron box which is kept weli o'jppited
with oiL The box Useh' is firmly iiayeuucd
in a stone founiiauon, ami the eutiro niruct
ore is made as true and as steady as pos
sible. It requires a great dial of eare u-.d
attention to keep the rubbing-bed purfe-j . y
true; and it is sometimes necessary to rib
it down for a whole week with biuestouu in
order to keep the surface smooth.
When the slab leaves the rubbing-bed it
Is comparatively smooth, and is ready to be
cut out by baud into its final shape. It ttien
passes into the hands of the polishers, vrtio
are provided with rubbers made of ordinary
ticking rolled up into a mop of about thruo
or four inches in diameter and sowed iiriiiiy
through and through. With these they rub
the surface of the slab back and forth, hour
after hour, until they bring out the "ui'Ii
polish so much admired. The murbic is
first rubbed wi'.h grit, then with piH;.;.-e-stone.
and thee with houe. On somt' wiUe
marbles oxalic acid is then used, and lir.uliy
the finishing touches are given withpmty
of zinc On colored marbles emery tnd
French putty, prepared with sulphur and
lead, are used. U is estimated that cavil
square foot of surface polished costs oue
man four hours of steady work.
In gliding, four or five gold leaves are
blown into a cushion mode of a board cov
ered with chamois. The gilder cuts ii into
strips a quarter of an inch wide, lays u on
the marble with his "tip," then 'co:tos"
it on. after which be rubs it down with a
fine hair brush in order to smooth the ln
and form an even and continuous surface.
He then cleans offtheedgeswub cuttle huh.
Great dexterity is acquired bv gilders, and
they seem to handle with the greatest ease
the delicate gold leaf which the siighest
breath of air is sufficient to carry off, and
which in inexperienced hands is utterly un
manageable. The variegated, dark-colored marbles are
most expensive, but they are also generally
harder and more durable, as well as more
beautiful, than those that are white or light
colored. The common white marble, which
Is not so valuable from an ornamental point
of view, has a separate value as bcic i U10
best basis for the production of euruonie
acid gas for the manufacture of ' soda' ' wa
ter and all other carbonated beverages, and
a targe trade is done in it for this purpose.
It has succeeded whiting and bicarbonate
of soda in this respect on account of its
cheapness. A barrel of good marbie-dust,
weighing about JU pounds, costs i 1.25. An
equal quantity of whiting costs about f3 50,
and produces no more gas. A like weint
of bicarbonate of soda produces s double
amount of gas, but costs about $7.
As far as chemical composition is con
cerned marble and whiting are analogous
both are carbonates of lime, and when
equally pure both contain the same amount
of carbonic acid. VYniUng. however, is
rarely, if over, as pure as marble. It con
sists chiefly of the remains of extremely
small animalcules.

Two or three curiosities of commerce
are mentioned in the report of the
commissioner of customs at Canton.
Woolen goods, says the New York
journal of Commerce, are not much in
demand in that latitide, but "woolen
cord i& now very largely used by the
natives here for plaiting into their
cues, and the importations of this art!
cle are steadily increasing." The im
port of keroene oil at Canton in
creased from three million gallons in
lft&B to more than nine million five
hundred thousand gallons in 1801. It
is peddled on the street The empty
cans serve a great variety of uses. The
domestic servant delights in them as
convenient and all-embracing recepta
cles, and readily fashions them into
handy utensils for daily use. They are
converted into lamps, boxes, toys for
children, and all sorts of domestic
articles. Flattened and pieced to
gether one sees them generally used in
conjunction with the usual matting as
coverings for boats and sheds. They
supply the packing tins in which lard
and ginger are exported- "The tinware
sent from here to the northern porta
consists lurguly of tamps, boxes and
various small articles made of old kero
sene tins and ornamented with lacquer
Tarnish." Evidently the shipment of
oil to China- ia talk a&wpkk&t of
