Straggle Going On Between the Rons# Finch and the English Sparrow. That saucy pest of Eastern oities, and all Europe, Canada and Australia, the English sparrow, has been migrat ing westward. Denver lias been rest- fully consoling herself, thinking that the journey across the sago brutih waste was too long and food and towns too senroe for the greedy bird to risk the trip, even for -the riohnoss of Buch a desirable aite for an English sparrow colony, but these aro fonnd foolish » notions—there’s more than one wny in \this oentury of eleotrioity and Bteam, And even the birds know it. Two yenw “8° two or three English spar rows^arrived at the Denver Union Depot, tip a box-car, behind a West bound enfetiue, and established a set tlement netas^ the station. Strangely enough, the bfod has not appeared up town, nor spreakl to any considerable degree, but has hujuilned itself near the original settlemeint. Last year it was seen no furthervnp town than Wazeo street, and this yWr no further than Onrtis street, wbiohNphcws that something is impeding the progress of this prollfio bird and standing'.in de fence of the oity. Professor George L. Cannon has been looking oarefully into the mal .ter, aud says that a contest for snpreniaoy in Denver is waging between the I lug lish sparrow and tho little house fl rob, or burion, the bnokyard chirper w Inch is mistaken by so many people foi the English sparrow. The house flnoh has not the stiff lighting qualities of tho English sparrow, but it has the ad vantage of having possession of the oity bofore the sparrow arrived. The house flnoh is n Western 1 >ird, and is found almost exoluBivel y in Colorado and States farther west; the sparrow is an Eastern bird. It ren nine to be seen whether the Western bird oau' hold firm against the attac king Eastern peet. “The struggle iB likely to continue but a few years," said Professor 3an non, “but it may last for a hundred years, and as the English sparri iw is more persistent and quarrelson ,e it will probably oorne out viotorioui i uu less Denver’s citizens join sides with the flnoh.” Revived on the Dissecting Tablt The diBseoting-room of the Mil itary Hospital of Algiers has just witnt ssed the resuaoitation of a soldier whe had been supposed to be dead for t hree days. It was at the very mo uent when the professor of surgery was about to dissect the supposed oorpse that the soldier suddenly awoke from a prolonged lethargy. The threp per sons who witnessed the soene were struck with such amazemeut that they were at first nnable to do anything. It was not till after they had seem the eupposed oorpse quietly slip on the marble slab on which he was td have been dissected, and go into an adjoin lng room to write a few words yon t sheet of paper to assure himself that ]ie was really alive and awake,'that the doctor and his assistant camo'to his aid. It is stated that the reooveiW of the soldier is absolutely completed —PariB correspondence of the London Standard. What Protocol Meant. The piotoool that bas been arranged between the Administration and the French Minister representing Spain is an informal Statement or interpre tation of tbe preliminary agreement for peace. Originally a protocol was a small sheet pasted on at the begin ning of a dooument giving a synopsis of it. It is derived from the Greek, protos, first, and kolla, glue. ANCIENT NAMES OF CUBA. Tho ultimate survival of the original Indian name is of Bomewhat rare occurrence in tho history of Spanish conqnest. When Columbus first saw Cuba, about sixteen days after his difficulties had been laid at rest by tho Bight of Quanabani, he was con fident that at last he had oome to the shor? of Asia. Further to ingratiate himself and his designs with Queen Isabella, he named the plaoe Juana, in honor of her son, PrinoeJuan, When, few years later, the Prinoe died, Columbus promptly transferred tbe honor o( the name to Ferdinand, the bereaved father, and for a time Cuba was known as Fernandina. This act of flattery oould not have had the desired effect, for the island was next put under the pntronage of the greatest of Spanish saints by being called Sant lago. The next name suggests probable perils of the deep from which colon ists esoaped by pious recognition of the ever watohful eare with whioh the Virgin proteots mariners. They named tho haven of refnge Ave Maria. Other colonists, noting the irregnlar, jagged ooast lines, called their home La Lengua de Pajaro (sparrow’s tongue). Finally the use of the old Indian name became established, and to-day we speak of the island as it has been spoken of by generations that passed away in happy ignoranoe of the op pressions that were to crush thejr race to the ground and blot it from the faoo of tho earth. The original Havana was on the southern shoro of Cuba—Han Cristobal de la Habana, so called in honor of the discoverer, Huracoa first enjoyed tho honor of being the capital, then Santiago de Cuba beoatne the chief city, but about the year 1619 the name Havana and the soat of government wore trans- ferroda to the city on the northern ooast, where they still remain. Philip II. gave the city a coat of arms aud a liberal local government, and siuoo that time it has easily main tained its supremacy among Cuban towns. Eccentricities of Temperature. We have ground for expeoting that in England, about three times in the oentury, the Thames will be frozen over at Loudon Bridge; but that oon- ■ummation is synonymous with an in tense degree of continnous frost which will not be confined to Britain; for of late years it has beoome patent that these areas of extreme temperatnre are very extensive, and that when there is an exoessively oold winter in England and Franoe, even Italy is often included. I can reoollect in the winter of 1881 seeing the Arno at Florence skated npon, and ioioles like a prodigious portcullis hanging from the Ponte Veoohio, some of which were seven and eight feet in length. I have known Cannae and Pompeii smothered in enow, and the entire lemon orop of Amplfi and Palermo de stroyed by frost. Nevertheless, I have never experienced anything ap proaching to the following, whioh is related by Bembo in his “Storia Veneta,” 1., i.: 1 “In 1849, through the severity of the season, the [salt] water of tbe Grand Canal was frozen, and the Btradiots [Greek mercenaries‘of the ltepublio] held their tournament on tbe ioe, horse against horse, with their lauoes."—Notes and Queries. •DD SEWING MACHINES. Sam. of the Mare Curious of the Dm to Whioh They Aro Put. The buttonhole sewing maohine iB familiar, but it is probable that the button-sewing maohine is less so. Such maohines, however, have been used for years. The same button- sewing maohine might serve to sew on buttons of a dozen styles and sizeB, bnt they .wonld all be buttons with the eyes at tho same distances apart. There are many buttons of various sizes as to diameter whose eyes are punohed alike. Button-sewing ma chines are most commonly used to sew on bnttonB that are placed close down to the fabrio, as on underwear, and many other things. They are not used to sew on buttons as they are often sewed on clothing, where, after sowing on the button, the thread is drawn with a few tight turns around between' the button and the cloth, thus raising the button upon a little column. Ordinarily in the use of Bowing maohines the material is fed to the maohine. In sewing carpets the ma ohine travels along the carpot. The carpet with the edgeB to be sewed to gether is stretobed and held between the supports of a frame. Tbe oarpet- sewing maohine is plaood on the double edge of tbe carpet, along whioh it travels, as it is operated, sewing as it goes. There are carpet-sewing maohines that nre operated by hand, and also machines that are operated by power. Sewing machines have long been used for a great variety of leather work. Some of tbe machines used for suoh purposes, as, for example, sewing maohines used for etitohiug leather or rubber belting, are power ful machines that stitch through suoh materials half or three-quarters of an inch or more in thickness. Besides machines used for stitching leather there are also made sewing machines that are used for stitohing paper in blank booke and others.—New York Sun. A Mathematical Mule. A writer in Lippincott’s Magazine tells a rather remarkable mule story. The animal in question was used to reinforce the regular teams, being hitched beside them on a oertain steep iuoliyo on one of tbe Cincinnati street railroads: Tbe mule made a certain number of tripB in the forenoon (I have forgotten the number, but will Bay fifty for the sake of convenience), and a like num ber in the afternoon, resting for an hour at noon. As soon as it complet ed its fiftieth trip it marched away to tbe stable without orders from its driver. To show that it was not guided hy the sound of the faotory whistles and bells, the following remarkable aotion on the part of this animal is vouched for by the superintendent of the line: On a oertain occasion, during a musical festival, the mule was trans ferred to the night shift, and the very instant it completed its usual number of trips it started for the stables. The oombiued efforts of several men were necessary to make it return to its duty. At night there were no bells or whistles to inform the mule that “quit ting time" had come; it had counted the trips, and having finished its quota, it thought that the time for rest and food had arrived. that face or person from all othor facet or persons, and associate the name with that feature or peculiarity. Nc two countenances or figures are alike, and it is by noting how they differ one from another that you will remember them. In explaining his remarkable memory for faoes, Speaker Heed once said to a reporter that he never looked a man in the face that some striking pecu liarity, a line, a wrinkle, an expression about the eye, the set of the lips, the shape of the nose, something set that man’s faoe down in his mind in eradi- cably and distinguished from the rest of mankind—so that when a man ap proaohed him he would think: “Here comes that Robinson whose right pupil is bigger than his left,” or “This is Thompson, whose nose is so orooked." —Self Culture. An omployer of German clerks says they work twenty per oent. slower than English ones. To Remember Face*. To remember a faoe, as a person Is called, the rule is not difficult to fol low; pick out some feature or pecu liarity by whioh you can distinguish The Esquimau >■ Artist., With all his artistic ability the Esquimau is not skilled in his por trayal of the human form, and he is well aware of this deficiency. While he attempts elaborate representations of all other created forms whioh have come within his ken he attempts nothing but the orndest suggestion of the human figure, usually indieating the lord of oreation meroly by means of a oironlar spot, from which a line is suspended, terminating in two other lines to represent legs, while a couple of lateral lines emanating from either side of the oirclo suggest arms. A1 most any schoolboy can discount his art in this respeot. Yet he is by no meanB lacking in imagination, and is capable of portraying tho most mag nificent and impossible sea serpents that ever the inventive mind of mar iner conoeived. — 8au Francisco Chronicle. A Patriotic Rooster. The marines at League Island take great pride in two bantam chiokens, a hen and a rooster, owned by a man who runs a refreshment stand near the entrance to the Navy Yard. The ohiokens are snow-white, with bright red cornbB, and, taking his cue from these advantages, the owner deoided to make them the most patriotic birds at the Navy Yard. In a bucket of blue dye be dipped their white tails, and after letting them dry he turned them loose as red, white and bine as nature and a bucket of dye eonld make them. The rooster bas sinoe fought and vanquished every cock in the neighborhood, and the marines deolare that he is the least chioken hearted of any patriotic warrior wear ing the national colors.—Philadelphia Record. ll.d Head., Not Ilald Head.* A writer in an English weekly jour nal says that it is a curious fact that red-haired people are far less apt to go bald than those with other colored hair. The average orop on the head of a red-haired person is only 29,200 hairs. Ordinary dark hair is far finer, and over three dark hairs take up tha space of one red one; 105,000 ara about the average. But fair-haired people are still better off; 140,000 to 160,000 are quite a common number of hairs on the scalp of a fair-haired man or woman. A curious calculation has been made, to the effeet that the hairs on the head of a fair-haired person, if they oould be plaited together, wonld sustain a weight of something lika eighty tons, equaling that of 500 peo ple. It costs over eight hundred dollars to fully equip an ordinary cavalry soldier.
