Freaks of fho Avalanche. ,
One still January night n number of
people In a tiny Swiss huuilet of the
Canton Valais quietly abandoned their
homes, pnd shortly before midnight
the avalanche broke loose with plung
ing roars. It started many others In
Its downward roll, loft the usual track,
broke through and destroyed an old
straggling larch forest and completely
burled n big chalet In which twenty-
six persons bad taken refuge. Of
these nineteen were killed and seven
saved. Tills avalanche found a flnnl
resting place In a lake which its broken
masses struck with terrific impact,
causing thousands of fish to rise to the
surfneo, quite dead. This reminds me
that yearly tens of thousands of
chamois, foxes, marmots and all kinds
of birds, Including even the lordly
eagle himself, grp destroyed by ava
lanches and their attendant hurri
canes. Lnst senson at Andcruintt a
superb mountain eagle was dug out of
aq. avalanche alivo, together with the
sheep upon which It had been preying.

The First Man.
About the middle of the seventeenth
century Isaac dc la I’eyrerc, In an odd
little volume entitled “The Pro-Adam-
ftes,” attempted to prove flint there
were two creations of men—the first on
the sixth day of the week of creation,
when "God created man male and re
male." The rabbis interpret the above
passage of holy writ os dieanlng'that
the first race of human beings wore
creatures In which both sexes were
united In tlio same Individual. Accord
ing to Do la Peyrere, Adam was the ro
suit of the second creation, the "male
and female" being hnving been the pro
genltor of thc| gentiles, Adam the fa
ther of the Jews. A great many peo
pie fell In with the views of De la Poy-
rere, and ho was the lion of the hour.
His followers ‘were culled “pre-Adam-
ltes,” and they Increased In numbers
rapidly until finally the movement be
came so strong that the founder of tlih
sect was compelled to go to Rome and
abjure his doctrine at the foot of Pope
Alexander VII. •

The Romantic Air of FrlMCO.
Sun Francisco is permeated with an
air of romance and adventure. No
where may one turn without being re
minded of tho legends that have been
woven around the fofrty-nlners and
their immediate followers. The nnmes
of the streets and of the business
blocks, such ns Kearney, Sutter, Mont
gomery, Dupont, Flood, Crocker and
Sharon, bring to the miud of the visitor
long forgotten stories of riot or adven
ture and of fortunes whose vastness
once excited his wonder or made him
incredulous. To read the words that
nTo painted upon the street cars of San
Francisco is to bo carried back in fan
cy to tho time when the city was peo
pled only by those who, having turned
from all else that men hold dear, hnd
gone in search of fortune and found it,
always just ns they wero about to glvo
up in despair and die of ‘starvation or
succumb to the hardships with -which
human endurance could no longer cope.

8avag«a and Snuff.
The habit of snuff taking has been
confirmed among savage f tribes for
ages past. In South Africa it is used
among Swazis, Basutos and Matubeles.
Every Zulu today, even in towns, car
ries a little square box suspended
around his neck by u piece of string or
gut, and the snuff spoon (for they do
not Indulge iu tho homely “pinch”},
carved out of sheep’s bone, often or
namented with intricate geometrical
designs and for convenience carried
hanging downward through n slit in
tiie, lobe of the ear. The Zulu regards
the lobe of bre ear as a useful recep-
table for various snfall articles he
meets with. The umfaan, or house boy,
universally met with In Na(al, has a
penchant for safety pins, which have
to be carefully bidden from ids sharp
eyes. Even then he is usually "to be
seen, after going through the rooms,
with a string of these pins susiiendcd
from each ear until they reach his
shoulders.

Feople who reach extreme old ago
are, ns n rule, pretty well balanced
physically and mentally. A poised life
Is serene, and serenity and harmony
I tend to longevity. The mind that Is
not well balanced is constantly jangled
and out of tune. There Is a constant
Jarring which racks the whole hitman

The largest newspaper ever publish
ed iu tills of any other country was
the Illuminated Quadruple Con^r'lla-
tlon, which was issued iu New York
city on July 4, 1S59. It was a 28,000
edition uud was sold at 50 cents par
copy. The size of the page of this
sheet was 70 by 100 inches, or almost
forty-nine square feet. It was nn eight
page paper, thirteen columns to the
page, or a total of 104 columns, each
forty-eight inches in length. It was
illustrated, with good portraits of Pres
ident Buehnuan, Edward Everett, Hen
ry Ward Beecher, N. P. Banks, E. II.
Chapin, Horace Greeley. Elizabeth
Barrett Browning, Alexander von
Humboldt, James G. Bennett nud sev
eral others. The paper contained thir
ty six different poems entire, one* of
them haviug as many as sixty-four
oigUj line verses. Amoug .other articles
of special uote was the celebrated
“Moon Hoax,” published lt^ 1S35. It
required the work of forty persons ten
hours per day for eight weeks to ‘‘get
out” this mummoth paper.
The Natural Way.
A philanthropic person heard of
negro family that was,reported in do
1 tltute • circumstances, and. calling at
• their domicile, he found the. report .inn?,
j The family consisted of the mother, a
son nearing manhood's estate atul tv.*c
youug children. Tito benevoleut old
gentleman after hearing the mother’s
story gave her eldest son J?1 to get a
chicken for the Thanksgiving dinner
aud took his departure. No coi"p
was he goue JUan the negress said ts
her son, “Sambo, you done gjU»;e dor.
doll.nli and go get dnt chicken in dc
nntchral way!”—Chicago Inter ocean.
Necktie* na Railway Signal*.
'Red neckties are always worn by
foreign brakemen and conductors. Ev
es notice it?” said a railroader.
“No. Why is it?”
“As a safety device,” was the reply.
“These red neckties that ,flash upon
your gaze ou the railroads of Italy,
France, Germany and England are
not a sign that the people have a gay (
taste, but that they are cautious and
prudent. ~
“The neckties are supplied free by
the railroad companies for use as dan
ger signals in emergency. Thus, no
matter when or where an accideut may
■happen, there is no need- to search or
scramble for a red tlag, but the brake-
man whips off his red necktie and
waves it frantically aloft.”—Minneap
olis Journal.
Kentucky'* Name*.
Kentucky is known ns the Corn
Cracker State from a game bird en
joying the same name which was for^
merly found In great abundance In
most ports of the state. It Is also
called tho Blue Grass State, from tho
belt of land running through the cen
ter, in which this variety of grass
grows to groat perfection. In the early
days of our history lt> was known as
the Dark and Bloody Ground, being
60 termed by the fudinns. It was then
a debatable land between the Indians
living north of the Ohio and those
living In the mountains of Tennessee
and Georgia, a sort of battleground
for these tribes, which fact gave It the
name long before It was settled by
the whites.

Price nnil Imagination.
Housewives are apt to judge the
quality of groceries by the price paid
for them. As nn Illustration of this a
grocer' tells tl)£ following story: “I
hnd two qualities of flour—one fine and
the other poor. One day 1 accidentally
sold one for the ^tlier. My customers,
who paid a high price for tho poor
quality, said that It lmd given entlrp
satisfaction, while those who bad-re
ceived the fine flour for a low price
complained of it, and a few^returned It
as unfit for use.”
Odd Graveyard Inscription*.
At Worcester, England, tho slab
erected over a departed autiouecr is in
scribed with a single word, “Goue.”
In Sussex the initials aud date of the
death of the deceased are followed by
two words, “He was.” The most re
markable inscription is at Cane Hill
cemetery, Belfast, tvhere the inscrip
tion says, “Left till called for.”
