CURIOUS FACTS. Nevada stage route horses wear sliois. There is a Michigan fchoolmaster’s Club. The mint at Birmingham, England, i 3 the greatest in the world. Books published 1100 years ago sell from $25 to SSOO a volume. “satie” is a name of Celtic origin, and means romping, laughing. A sea bass weighing 425 pounds was naught at tar* Diego, Cal., a few days ago. A gentleman in Columbus, Ga., has a razor which has been in constant use 104 years. A scarlet geranium leaf that measured forty-seven inches in circumference was picked at Hanford, Cal., a few days ago. A prisoner in a Cincinnati station house attempted suicide with an ordinary brass pin by opening arteries iu his wrist. An iceboat on the Hudson P.ivcr re cently ran a race with an express train, beating it easily. Two miles and a half were made in five minutes. What becomes of all the pins made in the world? is a question that lias been asked by thoughful persons, and it still stands without satisfactory answer. Catfish are so numerous in Washoe Lake that the Nevada people want the Legislature to import a carload or two of alligator gars to thin out the catfish. In the great museum at London is a smail watch, one hundred years old or more, in the shape of an apple. The golden outside is adorned with grains of pearl. Quoddy Head, Sic., is the easternmost point of the United States, Alton Islands the westernmost. Point Barrows the northernmost and Key West the mo3t southern. In Kansas the hides of Galloway cattle butchered are cured and made into lap robes. The jet black hair is thick, glossy and handsome, and makes a neater robe than the buffalo, while it is equally warm. Down in the wilds of Washington County, Me., they have discovered a tree, the wood of which is white birch and the bark hemlock. The natives have dubbed this queer tree llie “mugwump of the forest.” While a man at Carlisle, Penn., was running a planer his coat tail got tangled and was fortunately torn off. A bit of wood in his pocket blocked a cog wheel aud saved his life. The wood was a piece of John Brown’s scaffold. Cliff dwellings are found in great num bers iu Morocco, which are now. and probably have been, inhabited froirc the time of their first construction. Tnese dwellings in all particulars are like those found in Arizona and New Mexico on this continent. French scientists are puzzling over a spider which has been discovered in the hollow interior of a stone. It is esti mated that the stone must be at least 400 years old, but the spidea is quite lively and youthful in its antics. It is blind and has no mouth. . There is hardly any science that has advanced more rap’dly than medicine: though some of the methods of the un dents cannot be improved upon. The value of steam in diphtheria was known to the Egyptians and practiced by them many, many years before the Christian era. John Dennett, of Santa Cruz, Cal., re cently found a two-headed snake about a foot long. The heads were distinctly sep arate and bctli were perfect. The heads were littie over an inch in length. When aroused the snake would throw a forked tongue out of each head simultaneously, as if they were one. The first inventor of the sewing ma chine turns put not to be Howe, but a man named Thomas Saint, who look out his patent in 17t>(), sixty years before Howe produced hism.achine. A machine made accordiug to Saint’s speciliation is now being exhibited at the exhibition of sewing machines and domestic appli ances, at the Royal Agricultural Hall, j Islington. Extinct Animals. The goal of absolute extinction hai already been reached by two species ol mammals and three of birds, alt of which undoubtedly inhabited the planet with in the last fourteen centuries: The Sclielk (akin to the urus of Northern Europe), the Kamtchatka sea cow, the dodo (a sort of short-legged ostrich, found on the island of Mauritius as late as 115V0), the parrot of the Nor folk Islands and tlnfw ngless ank (Alca impennis’, a bird once frequenting all the coasts of the Northern Atlantic, but which has been “seen no more” since lSofi, when the last survivor is said to have been killed on a clilf of the i aroe Island. The ibex, once abundant in all the highlands of Northern Europe, is now found only in the almost inaccessible summit regions of the Piedmont Alps, and the only surviving specimens of the auerochs enjoy a precarious respite in the Russian game preserve of Bialowitz. The Aonerican mountain goat is get ting so scarce that many old hunters of the northern Kockies have never had a chance to see a living specimen, and the list of doomed animals includes the chamois, the Corsican mou ton, the bustard, the cassowary, the elk, and probably the American bison, unless the “buffalo farm” at Garden City, Kan., should prove a decided success. —Drake i {dnijeuine. Bullet-Riddled Flag’s. The German War Department •will shortly publish, in accordance with the expressed wish of the late Emperor Will iam, a history of the tiags of Prussia since 1807. The work is intended as an introduction to the history of the Prus sian regiments which is be'ng prepared. In the period extending from 1804 to 180(5 ninety-nine flags were pierced ty bullets on the field of battle,and in 1870 151 flags were similarly punctured, the flag of the Seventh infantry alone being hifby twenty-three bullets ut Mars i a Tour!

T he march of Stanley, tho African ex plorer, from the shores of the Congo river to Lake Albert N'yanza is one of the most wonderful achievements in the his tory of exploration in any part of the world. No explorer has hitherto at tempted so dangerous a journey—one fraught with inconceivable difficulties— and the success of the expedition can only be comparatively described by say ing that Stanley has outdone himself, lie led his forces 2,000 miles in 100 days through the denso African forest, braved savage enemies, endured agonies of thirst and hunger, was exposed to deadly fe vers, and his total losses in his marching force, up to the date of the letter from j him, were 190, out of a total of 389 men. One of the great obstacles to his march wasthehostlity of the Arab slave-dealers, who persuaded many of his men to desert, robbed and murdered the stragglers of : his party, and laid waste by fire large ' tracks of country which he had to trav ! p r BG. By his matchless generalship, his indomitable pluck, his patience in endur ing unutterable perils, Stanley has fairly won the title of the greatest explorer of this country, if not indeed of all in the years since Columbus crossed the terror inspiring western ocean. A Great. Scamp. Some miscreant who will be a marked man if he is ever discovered, played a contemptible and most scurvy trick on the Chicago Freie Presse. At an early hour yesterday morning the party above alluded to broke a window in the office and entered the composing apartments. He did not come to steal anything, be cause he was well enough posted not to go near a newspaper office to pilfer, par ticularly after the opulent editors and the reportorial Vanderbilts had gone home. He wanted pi—good, old German pi. His soul yearned for it and he got it. Going to each of the printers’ cases, he grabbed handfuls of German and Saus crit type, and with the abandon of a thorough villain, distributed them where they would do the most harm. Lower case “m’s” came into friendly juxtaposi tion with small-cap “x’s” and “ill's,” and “ffi’s” were eu rapport with the of our daddies. The whole alphabet was thus treated. This little irregularity was not discovered until several columns of matter had been set, and then the proof-readers began to talk in a language unfitted for use in Sunday-Schools.

A singular case of wholesale poisoning that came near proving fatal is reported from the Morning Side School, in Sioux City* lowa, taught by Miss Hattie Oon niff. Shortly after school was called on a recent forenoon a peculiar odor was noticed, and searching for the source, tho teaoher- opened the door to the closet where the scholars kept their wraps. A fur cap, belonging to one of the boys, had fallen into a bucket con taining hot ashes, and was sending off clouds of smoke. The teacher seized the bucket and started for the door, but when half way across tho room was overcome by tho smoko, and dropped into the nearest scat almost unconscious. A boy then took tho bucket, but at once succumbed and fell to the floor. Twenty of the pupils who sat where the smoke reached them were deathly sick, and were unable to rise alone. By super human efforts the teacher managed to got the door open, and the fresh air re vived her so she helped the children out doors, where they lay on the ground in agony. At the end of three hours all had recovered sufficiently to be taken home, but were very weak. It is sup posed that poison was contained in the coloring matter of the cap, and that it was set free by the burning.— Washing ton Star. Increased the Bill.

It is believed tliat the murderer who has slain his victim with sword or dag ger will escape if the body falls upon its side or back; but if the body falls face downward, then the murderer surely soon will be captured and put to death. This belief is said to be so firmly rooted among the people of northeastern Mexi co that when a murdered man fall’s upon his face his slayer makes no effort to es cape, and even sometimes voluntarily surrenders himself to justice.

According to the reports from Ilodcida, one of the largest ports of Arabia, on the Red Sea, slaves arc still smuggled across from Africa in large numbers, and in spite of the activity of the British, French and Italian cruisers. It is charged that the Turkish officers connive at the trade and receive bribe money amounting to $2 a head on the slave importations. In this part of Arabia, slaves from the Zanzibar coast and the Soudan were formerly in troduced in large numbers, finding em ployment chiefly in the harems and at do mestic service. The blockade has prac tically cutoff these sources of supply, and most of the slaves now imported are Galla and Abyssinian girls, who can be taken to the coast at the narrow part of the Red Sea and shipped across in a night. Most of these girls are destined for the liarertis, and the more attractive among them sell at the comparatively cheap rate of $l2O to S2OO apiece. Among the hereditary jewels belonging to the duke of Cumberland, are Queen Charlotte’s pearls, valued at $750,000 and about which for twenty years Queen Victoria and the Hanoverian king quar reled with majesterial dignity.
