ARMORED COFFINS.
They Were Once I’ced In a Church¬
yard In Scotland.
Iu the earlier half of the nineteenth
century the practice of stealing bodies
from the churchyards for the purpose
of sale as subjects for dissection, which
was known as “body snatching,” was
for a time very rife.
Various plans were made to defeat
the nefarious and sacrilegious proceed¬
ings of the “body snatchers," or "resur¬
rectionists,” as they were sometimes
called, a very common one being the
erection of two or more small watch
houses whose windows commanded
the whole burying ground, and in
which the friends of the deceased
mounted guard for a number of nights
after the funeral.
A usual method of the grave robbers
was to dig down to the head of the
coflin aud bore in it a large round hole
by means of a specially constructed
center bit. It was to counteract this
maneuver that the two curious coffln
like relics now lying on cither side of
the door of the ruined church of Aber
foyle, in Perthshire, were constructed.
They are solid masses of cast iron of
enormous weight.
When an interment took place one of
these massive slabs was lowered by
suitable derricks, tackles and chains
od to the top of the coflin, the grave
was tilled in, and there it was left for
some considerable time. Later on the
grave was opened .and the iron armor
plate was removed and laid aside
ready for another funeral.
These contrivances still lie on the
p-.-se of the lonely little churchyard,
objects of curiosity to the passing cy
cUtt and tourist.—Scientific American.

some half yard or so of a hand painted
border, which was the pride of my
heart. Then came au interval of calm
and exemplary behavior which lulled
me into a false security. Cockie seemed
to have but one object in life, which
wns to pull out all Ms own feathers,
and by evening the dining room often
looked as though a white fowl had
been plucked in it.
I consulted a bird doctor, but as
Cookie's bealtli was perfectly good and
his diet all that could be recommended,
It was supposed be only plucked himself
for want of occupation, and firewood
was recommended as a substitute.
This answered very well, aud he spent
his leisure in gnawing sticks of deal
only when no one chanced to be in the
room he used to unfasten the swivel
of his chain, leave it dangling on the
stand and descend iu search of hls
playthings. When the tire had not
been lighted, I often found half the
coals pulled out of the grate aud the
firewood iu splinters. At last, with
warmer weather, both coals aud wood
were removed, so tlie next time Master

possessing, looking a born leader of
men. Like Napoleon, he was always
distinguished by the plainness of his
uniform. He had a queer habit of al¬
ways, even in battle, carrying a pen¬
cil behind bis ear, butt end foremost.
He was taciturn, grave, abrupt and
disdainful of forms and etiquette. He
hated all foreigners, especially Ger¬
mans, Russians and English. As for
war correspondents, he entertained the
utmost detestation of them, whence
the deeds of his army were never
chronicled ns they should have been.
He bad a strange method of dealing
with cowards. He would send for
them and publicly box their ears.
When really angry, his rage was terri¬
ble.
After the sortie and the surrender he
was seen to be weeping tears of rage
and shame. He was, it may be, a
little touched by the Czar Alexander
II, who caine up to him and said:
“I congratulate you on your superb
defense. It is one of the finest feats
of military history.”

ty.—Pittsburg Dispatch.
Locusts Good to Eat.
All native African races eat locusts.
With many it takes, and has to take,
the place of the British workman’s
beef and mutton. In a good many vil¬
lages sun dried locusts are an article of
commerce. The Sudanese are particu¬
larly fond of them.
Before they are eaten they are toast¬
ed. The wings and legs having first
been torn off, the long, soft body and
the crisp head form the delicacy.
I determined not to let my European
prejudices influence me, but to give
the dish of grilled locusts a fair trial.
I thought how John the Baptist had
enjoyed them plus wild honey.
The one 1 was eating was rather
nice. I agreed with my Arab servant
that, should the meat supply fall short,
a dish of locusts would be a very good
substitute.
By the time I was eating the sec¬
ond locust it seemed to me absurd
why one should have a sort of lurking
pity for John the Baptist’s daily menu
unless it be for its monotony, and I
felt convinced that I should get tired
of honey sooner than 1 should of lo¬
custs.—Current Literature.
The Sons: of the Yukon River.
“There is something peculiar about
the Yukon river that I have never
heard of In connection with any other
stream,” said Captain Gray, who has
been running boats on the big Alaska
artery. “From the mouth of the Yukon
up as far as there is any navigable
water the stream Is constantly sing¬
ing. No matter where you are, there
is a sound like that made by escaping
steam. At first 1 used to think that
maybe it came from the boiler or en¬
gines. But when we were tied up at
night, with everything cold, the sound
was the same. I have puzzled my
brain to find an explanation of the
phenomenon, but without avail. The
singing goes on day and night.
“When you get up stream some dis¬
tance, you can also hear the rocks
rolling over the bed of the river, and
this produces a most peculiar sound.”—

IRISH TURNS AND TWISTS.
We laconBoiona Hnmor That Crops
Oat In the Green Isle,
The author of “Irish Life and Char¬
acter” says truly that one has only
to mix with an Irish crowd to hear
many a laughable expression, quite in¬
nocently uttered. As the Duke and
Duchess of York were leaving Dublin
In 1897, amid enthusiastic cheering, an
old womau remarked:
“Ah! Isn't It the fine reception
they're gettiu, goiu away?”
In 1892 Dublin university celebrated
Its tercentenary, and crowds of vis¬
itors were attracted to the city. Two
laborers, rejoiced at the general pros¬
perity, expressed their feelings.
“Well, Tim,” said one, “thim tar
cintinaries does a dale for the thrade
of Dublin, aud no mistake.”
"Oh, falx they do!” said the other.
“And whin, with the blessllr of God (
we get home rule, sure we can have as
inanity of woman,’seetug-it thim as we plase.”
An old man pulling
#\'youugl.cal£ roughly along the road,
exclaimed: . ...
^‘Oh, you bia’guard! That’s no way
to thrate a fellow crather.”
“Sure,” said a laborer to a young
lady who was urging him to send his
children to school, “I’d do anything for
such a sweet, gintlemanly lady as
yourself.”
Again, the laborers ou a large estate
decided that it would be more con¬
venient for them if they could be paid
every week instead of every fortnight.
One of their number was sent to place
their proposition before the laud agent,
and this was his statement:
“If you please, sir, it's mo desire,
and it Is also ivery other man’s desire,
that we resave out fortnight’s pay
Ivery week.”
An exasperated sergeant, cailed drilling a
squad of recruits, to them at
last:
“Halt!” Just come over here, all of
ye, and look at yourselves. It’s a line
line ye’re keenin. isn’t it?”
LIKED THE POORHOUSE.
Would Not Leave It to Go For Money
That Helen (fed to Him.
^ “I won’t go out! I won’t leave here
for anything!”
Such was the amazing declaration of
a pauper attendant in an east end Lon¬
don workhouse on being told by an
agent that be was entitled to some
money. And the man—the son of a
post captain in the navy—meant all
that he said. Not au Inch would he
budge, nor would he sign any paper,
and It was only by taking a commis¬
sioner down to him that the fund
could be recovered.
Whether because It was only a com¬
paratively small sum or whether bo
cause he was a worker, the guardians
made no claim on it. Accordingly, at
his request, it was split, and two ac¬
counts were opened on hls behalf in
the Postofflce Savings bank. But, for
ad that, he continued to remain in the
workhouse.
Meanwhile he was very anxious that
his wife should not know he was alive
—in fact, he denied that he was mar¬
ried. His life partner, however, called
at the agent’s office to inquire abobt
the case, though she begged that her
husband might not he told of her
whereabouts. She was In a fairly
good position, earning as she did a liv¬
ing by keeping a ladies’ school, and
once or twice her reprobate husband
had turned up iu an Intoxicated condi¬
tion and raised a commotion that had
scandalized her pupils. The ill sorted
pair were, therefore, not brought into
communication.
Never would the pauper legatee leave
the workhouse. He remained there till
his death, whereupon, having left no
will, the money he had scorned to use
passed to hls wife.—Cassell’s Saturday
Journal.
Artificial Spongca.
AHttwdul sponges are made in Ger¬
many by treating pure cellulose with
zinc chloride. Tlie product swells tt

But to prevent this action alkalihaloids
are used. A pasty mass is thus obtain¬

salt, Is then placed In a mold. Whea
removed, it appears to be traversed
by canals in all directions, and aftsr
having been washed in alcohol and
water the sponge is ready for use.

The Belgian artisan spends hls lei¬

keeps a special cock for crowing, and
the bird which can outcrow its follows
has reached the highest pinnacle of
perfection. The mode of operation is
to place the cages containing the roost¬
ers in long rows, for it appears that
one bird sets the other off crowing. A
marker appointed by the organizers of
tlie show is told off for each bird, his
duty being to note carefully the num¬
ber of crows for which it is responsible
iu the same fashion as the laps arc re¬
corded in n bicycle race. The custom¬
ary duration of the match is one hour,
the winner being the bird which scores
the highest number of crows in the al¬
lotted time. A great number of these
competitions have taken place in the
Liege district, and iu some cases heavy
hets have been made on the result.

Save Your Money.
What is the use in paying
2 I-2c for your Collars and 5c
for Cuffs, when you can get
them laundried just as good at
2c for Collars and 4c for Cuffs?
The Georgia Steam Laundry
has had an agent here for the
past three years, and their work
has always given satisfaction.
I am responsible for all laun¬
dry left with me, and will make
good any and all losses.
