Billy tho Kid, (lie notorious outlaw,

and graceful, and with liis Winchester,
or self-cocking Smith & Wesson, a man
who never missed his aim. Tho winter
of 1871) he spent at Sascnso, on tho
Canadian river. Ho considered himself
greatly wronged by tho confiscation of
Ids cattlo and tho prico set upon his
head by tho government, while John
Chisolm, for whom ho had lost all,
turned n cold shoulder upon hint. That
soured Billy’s disposition. Advised
by his best friends to emigrate
to Old Mexico, and turn over a new
loaf, ho sworo that he would not, but
would return to Now Mexico and make
good his losses in a financial sense, llo
did return, nnd from that timo on his
hand was raised against tlioso who had
betrayed hint and tho authorities. He
nnd his party wero corallcd in a ranch In
Central New Mexico in tho winter of
1882 by their enemies, and besieged till
famine brought a council of war. All
were in favor of surrendering but the
Kid; but to save their lives, nnd On the

It was Billy the Kid. Seeing tho outline

Crabs Scared to Death.
"Why soft shell crabs are killed by
thunder storms,” said Eugene G. Black
ford, "has nover, to my knowledge,
been scientifically explained. My theory
is that they aro scared to death. Y r ou
know that the soft crab is the ordinary
blue hard crab that lias just sited its
shell, and I imagino the crab is tiien in
an extremely sensitive state. While in
that state nud out of its element,if it can
see lightning or hear thunder, it almost
instantly dies. Whether on train, steam
boat, or in crates in the market 75 per
cent, of the crubs are killed by a thun
der storm. Hut if they are put in the
ice house and can only hear the slight
rumble of the thunder, we do not lose ho
many. Every dealer in soft shell crabs,
time of storms, the minute he sees the sky overcast,
bundles his crates of soft crabs into his
thickest icc box, and until tile storm
passes over speculates upon hiB probable
loss by the rumbling thunder.”—New

A Chinese Farm.
The Chinese farmhouse is a curious-
looking abode. Usually it is sheltered
with groves of feathery bamboo and
thie.k-sprcuding^bnnyans. Tho walls aro
of clay or wood, and the interior of tho
houso consists of ono main room, extend
ing from the floor to the tiled roof, with
cloBet-looking apartments in the corners
for sleeping-rooms. There is a sliding
window on the roof, made of cut oyster
shells arranged in rows, while the side
windows are mere wooden shutters. The
floor is the bare earth, where at nightfall
there often gathers together a miscel
laneous family of dirty children, fowls,
ducks, pigeons, and a litter of pigs, all
living together in delightful harmony.
In some districts infested by marauding
bands houses are strongly fortified by
high walls, containing apertures for fire-
urmn, and protected by a moat, crossed

By many It mnv lie thought that tho
decision as to the quality of different
kinds of ten must depend largely upon
individual hlens and tastes. As far as
thu professional tea taster is concerned
this is a mistake. Tea tasting is very
decidedly a profession lit Itsu f, and inn
to he learned bv dint of application and
experience. That it Is not merely n
question of individual tnsto is demon
strated by the fact that when, ns Is often
the case, a coi tain rot of samples is sub
milted to several ten tasters acting inde
pendent of each oilier, tiic various opin
ions rendered as to quality and value are
almost invariably identical. So dclicnto
aro the prucoptioiis of thu professional
ten taster that lio not only quickly nnd
accurately grades tho different samples
submitted to him, recognizing thu must
minute gradations, hut lie is also in
many Instances able to dsiormlno the
part of the country in which a certain
tea was grown. In tlio same way the
judgment of the tea taster purchasing
tlio ten in China for the importers hero,
ns a general rule, coincides with that of
the tea tasters bore.
Tho tea trade in this city is divided
into four distinct branches— llio im
porter, the broker, the jobber nnd the
retailer. Tho wholosalo price of tea
ranges from ten to seventy cents per
pound. The importer's profit is a mod
erate hut remunerative one. The largest
percentage of profit—from forty to sixty
per cent.---goes to tlio retailor. When
a cargo of tea is received by the importer
samplci of tlio consignment-—often con
sisting of various kinds of ton—are sont
to the broker, lie disposes of it to the
lurgu retailors or to tlio jobbers, who in
turn sell in lessor quantities to tho smaller
retailers. The broker receives ono per
eont. commission on nil sales effected by
him. The ton taster acts in tho interests
of tho broker, to whoso advantage it is
to have a correct estimate as to tlio quali
ties and values of thu different teas ho is
hnndling, in order to meet tho require
ments of his customers.— New York

Tlio Food or the Danes.

Tho following particulars as to ths
methods of securing divorces in differ
ent countries are interesting:
Bintno**—The first wife may be di
vorced, not sold, as the others may be.
9he then may claim the first, third and
fifth child, and the alternate children
are yieldod to the husband.
Arctio region—When a ntan desires a
divorce he leaves the house in anger and
does not return for t crural dv.ya. Tho
wife understands the hint, packs her
clothes and leaves.
Tartar—Tho husband may put away
hie partner nnd seek another when it
pleases him, nnd the wifo may do the
same. If she bo ill-treated she complains
to tho magistrate, who, attended by tho
principal people, accompanies het to tho
house and pronounces a formnl divorce.
Chinese—DiVotcos are allowed in nil
cases of criminality, mutunl dislikes,
jealousy, incompatibility of temper, or
too much loquacity on tho part of the
wife. Tho husband enmiot sell his wifo
until sho leaves him and becomes a slavo
to him by action of the law for deser
tion. A son is bound to divorco his wife
if she displeases his parents.
Javans—If the wife bo ilissntisfled she
can obtain a divorce by paying a certain
sum.
Thibetans—Divorces are seldom al
lowed unless with tho consont of both
parties—neither of whom can afterward
ro-marry.
Moors—If the wife does not become
tlio mother of a hoy, sho may be di
vorced with the consent of the tribe, nnd
she con marry again.
Abyssinians—No form of marrisgo ii
neecssnry. The connection may bo dii-
solvcd and renowed as often as the par-
lies think proper.
Sibciians—if tho man ho dissatisfied
with the moat trifling acts of his witc,
lio toms her cap or veil from her head,
and this constitutes a divorce.
Coreans—The husband can divorce hli
wifo. and leave her tho charge of main
taining the children; if she proves uu-
faithful ho can put her to death.
Iliuso and Turkoman—Among those
poopto, if a wife asks hor husband's per
mission lo uo out, and if ho says "(jo,”
without adding "but come back again,”
she is divorced. Though both pnrtlcs
desire it, thoy cannot live together with
out being remarried.
Cochin (.’hincBc—If tho parties choose
to separate, they break a pair of chop
sticks or a copper coin in the presence of
witnesses, by wlucluaction tiio union is
dissolved. Tho husband must restore to
tho wife tho property belonging to her
prior to tier murringo.
American Indiana—Amongsome tribes
tlio pieces of sticks given to the wit

of divorce. Usually now connections aro

Mmo. Nilsson lias imparted to the Pall

a singer’s lito. Sho snys:
"1 am obliged to go to bed as enrly as
possiblo nftcr singing, nnd even on ’off
nights’ am ordered to retire as early ns
convenient after dinner. Y'ou soo, the
voice nnd tho spirit must he fresh in tho
early morning for practice, so as to give
ipaco for rest and a drive in thu open atr
before singing in tho afternoon or eve
ning.” "1 suppose this extreme care is
necessary ?" " Even to the strongest
womun who wishes to preserve hor voice
for any spsco of time. And you will
recollect tlmt my voice ‘Is my fortune,’
sir,” sho said. "And a very fino fortune,
too.” "1 huvo n quiot word for yon.”
Mmo. Nilsson went on, "on the much-
tnlkud-of question of the earnings of
soprani. I know you think tho rate we
aro paid is extravagant. I have had
severe losses nt times, but thoso hove
nothing to do with the question, which
is: Are wo overpaid? Now, in tho first

a one as is worth £300 or £400 now, if
there wore only four or five in the world,
would fetch twenty, thirty thousand—
what you will.” “Hut the diamond and
tho picture remain, while tho opera is
only a fleeting joy,” "And so is the
voice of the singer, who cannot go on
singing in her ilotngo ns a painter can
