CRAWFISH AND THEIR HABITS.

How They Kill Their Prey—Raising Them for Market in Europe. » “There is nothing so fatal to crawfish as a thunderstorm,” said a fishdealer to a Washington Star writer. “When I ntake a shipment of them to any place at b distance I always make sure that the weather promises well. On more than one occasion I have had entire consignments killed on a journey by a small electrical disturbance. Another thing I have to look out for is that the crawfish shall be so tightly packed as not to be able to turn upon their backs. If they do so they work their feet until exhausted and die: =r=

“The worst enemies crawfish have are eels, whose favorite food is-one-year-old crawfish. Bigger ones seem very rarely to be eaten by the eels. If you want plenty of crawfish in a stream you must catch alt the eels. The crawfish themselves are very voracious As soon as dusk sets in each evening they become lively and move about with great dgilitv. They swim well and have very keen sight. When the crawfish has spied its prey it steals up and with one bold dash impales the little fish or frog on its “tusk” as the Jong horn between its eyes is called. Then It drops to the bottom and devours the victim. — : ——

“There are plenty of crawfish about Washington, in the Potomac and its tributary streams. In the spring they come to market in great numbers. The female stays in her hole while the young are hatching from the- eggs. On an average each one has from 150 to 200 eggs. The young look like small worms and remain for some time attached by strong threads to the mother’s tail, being thus protected from fishes and other enemies. One year old the}’ are a& large as rs wasp, but they grow slowly, and three or four years pass before they get to be as big as four inches. By the time they are eight years old they have reached full size. 1 “In Europe, I am told, fishermen gather crawfish by the aid of torches. Ip summer the animals seek the shallows where tho bottom is clear, and those who hunt for them do so at night with flaming pine knots. This method is called ‘lighting.’ The crawfish are dazzled by the Might, and do not attempt to escape, so that they can be easily captured with the hands. One person will often take a thousand in a night. Crawfish are much cultivated abroad in ponds and iuclosures of water. No artificial means are resorted to for their propagation, but eels and predatory fishes are caught and removed. Thus they are given a chance •to multiply, and they are fed upon fresh meat to fatten them for market. The industry is very profitable.” /

Facing a Lion.

In one of the side shows connected with the-circus was a cage with a single lion in it. On the cage was a placard reading: “This beast has killed ten men. One thousand dollars to any one who dares enter nis cage. ” A big sign to the same effect was hung up outdoors, and those who didn’t go. in to see the fat boy ahd~£he"merm aide's ureTy"'wfiht'eff'“Tir gaze on the lion. There was a good crowd in, and the lecturer was about to begin on the mermaid, when a little old man, who was bowlegged and humpbacked, crowded to the front and said:

‘‘Look here, I want to try for that SI,OOO. Gimme a show at the lion.” “My friend, do you want to be torn into dog meat?” asked the lecturer in reply. “You, couldn’t live thirty seconds after entering the cage.” “Is he a Numidian lion?” “He is, and one of the most savage beasts ever captured. ” “Killed ten men, eh?” “He has.” “Wall, I’d like to tackle hhn. If he kills me that’ll be ’leven. I want that thousand dollars mighty bad, and I’m willing to run considerable risk. Gimme a fair show, will ye?” “You keep right- away from his cage. No man in liquor should get within two feet of a Numidian lion.” •“I haven’t drunk a drop of licker in ten years!” indignantly exclaimed the old man. “D§rn you and your old Numidian lion to boot! You aint willin’to give a man a show!” He backed off, and the lecturer delivered the usual oration on the mernilaid. He was about to begin on the fat boy, when the Numidian lion uttered a series of roars, and everybody’s attention was attracted to the cage. The little old man had slipped around and opened the door and 'entered. Not only that, but he had that lion by the tail and was drawing him backward and around the cage. Men shouted and women shrieked, and the lecturer rushed forward and shrieked: “Man! man! but yon must be mad!” "“Never felt better natured in my life,” replied the old man as he stopped to rest. “Come out, or you will be torn to pieces!" “I rayther guess not! There’s only one Numidian critter in here, and he doesn’t seem to be on the tear very mucin He up here, you old mossbackj and take another promenade!” He was drawing'lie beast around the cage again when the lecturer entered it and said- something in a lowvoice. “Make it ten and I’ll do it!” replied the old man in loud tones. “You said you’d give a thousand, but being it’s hard times for money I’ll let you off easy. Make ’er ten and pay me before 1 let goof his tail.” It .was handed to him then and there, and he descended, wiped his

hands on the grass, and feelingly observed to the circle of admirers: “Burn my hide, but when a man brings any sort of thing into this town, and sends out a defi I’m right on deck! That.s the fust critter from Numidia I ever tackled, but I'll be lookin’ far more from this on. Everybody come out and have some red lemonade with me!”

Columbus's Personal Appearance.

Emilio Castelarin June Century. Columbus was of powerful frame and large build; of ©ajj&stic bearing and dignified in gesture*on the whole ■ well formed; of middle height, inclining to tallness; his arms sinewy and bronzed like- wave beaten oars; his nerves high strung and sensitive, quickly responsive to all emotions; his neck“targe and his shoulders broad; his face rather long and his nose aquiline;- his complexion fair even inclining to redness; and somewhat disflured by freckles; his gaze piercing and his eye clear; his brow, high aud calm, furrowed with the deep workings of thought. In the life written by his son Ferdinand we are told that Columbus not only sketched most marvelously, but was so skilful a penman that he was able to earn a living by engrossing and copying. In his private notes hS* said that every good map draughtsman ought to be a good painter as well, and he himself was such in his maps and globes and charts, over which are scattered all sorts of cleverly drawn figures. He never penned a letter or began a chapter without setting at its head this devout invo cation: “Jesus cum Maria sit nobis in via.” Besides his practical studies he devoted himself to astronomical and geometrical re- , searches. Thus he was enabled to teach mathematics, with which, as with all the advanced knowledge of his time he was conversant, and he could recite the prayers aud services of the Church like any priest before the altar. He was, as I have already said, a mystic and merchant, a visionary and an algebraist. If at times he veiled his knowledge in cabalisties formulas, and allowed his vast powers to degenerate in puerile irritation, it was because his own age knew him not, bnd had dealt hardly with him for many years—from his yotrth until he reached the threshold of age—without taking into account the reverses which darkened and embittered his later years. Who could have predicted to him, in the midst of the blindness that surrounded him, that there in Spain, and in that century of unknown achievement, the name of Columbus was to attain to fame aud unspeakable renown? There are those who hold that this was the work of chance, and that the discovery--of-America was virtually accomplished when the Portuguese doubled the Cape of Good Hope. But I believe not in these posthumous alterations of history through mere caprice, nor in those after-rumors of the discoverers who died in obscurity.

The Latest London Postal Device.

London Daily News. A great impetus to the rapidly developing express delivery service of letters is anticipated by the postoffice authorities from the introduction of an automatic call and writing box, which it is proposed to erect at railway stations and in other public places in London. The first box, which was opened as an experiment at Charing Cross station yesterday, was well patronized by the public, and the first letter sent through its agency reached the comptroller of the London postal service at the general postoffice in less than half an hour from its dispatch. The box -is an ingenious one, worked by the customary plan of placing a penny in a slot. After this, on pulling out a drawer in the usua’l way a stout white card for writing purposes and two envelopes—one to qover the message and the other to contain the messenger's fee—are turned out of the box. At the same time a slidiug writing desk becomes fixed iu front of the box, and simultaneously a bell is rung at the nearest postoffice and a messenger is dispatched to the automatie box. Meanwhile, the purchaser having written hiS letter, can inclose it in an envelope and drop it into a receptacle provided for the purpose beside*the box; so it is not necessary to wait until the express messenger comes.

Marriages in Slave Times.

“How many times have you been married, George?" asked an Indianapolis reporter of an ancient darky. ,“As far as I can,remember now I have had thirty-four wives. I was married to a bright mulatto woman in Montgomery, Va., and tap had one child. But I was from them, and I have never seen nor heard from either of them since.”, “What kind of a ceremony did you have to go through?" “Bless you, we had no ceremony. When negroes got married the man’s friend held one end of a broomstick and the woman’s friend the other. The bridegroom would jump over it and the bride would follow suit, and then then they would kiss each other. “Then they were married and jollification began. So far as I cSn remember, I am the father of fifty-two children, but like my wives they were always taken away from me cn I from them. “One of my masters, George Oliver, tied my wife to, a tree and whipped her With a blacksnake in a terrible manner. I was right there, handcuffed, and could not help he* at all. “When I asked him not to whip her I was told to keep still or I would get a double dose. The last time I heard of Oliver he was a beggar, going from house to house to get something to eat. ” h «

It is computed that if the traffic of the city of London were to be dispatched by a procession of trains, each with the engine touching the preceding trains', as far as Liverpool and back, four hundred miles, the first return to London would find 214,000 persons waiting to start.

Give Us Laughing Philosophers!

None of youi snarling cynics for us. They laugh not, neither do they smile. They are lu-gubrious-dyspeptic. They are usually sour of visage, pale, slight, dry, quite gravyless individuals in fact, who look as if they had been at loggerheads with roast beef all their lives. The side-splitting, button-bursting guffaw that proceeds from the individual with a good digestion is never heard from them. They mag, nify mole hills into mountains, “trifles light as ai.r” into grievous annoyances. Si'.ow us, on the contrary,# man who faces trouble with a smile, repines not at small mishaps, and in whom thq, fountains of merriment are easily set aflow, and we will show you*a man with a good-digestion. Use Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters to secure this blessing, and banish the nervousness and querulous disposition to snarl' and find fault which attends dyspepsia.

Beware of Ointments for Ca arrh That Contain Mercur,

as Mercury will surely destroy the tense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous stmace. Such articles should never be used except to prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do is ten-fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. 'Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney tfc Co., of Toledo, 0., contains no mercury, and is taken internally and acts directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall’s Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken imemally, and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. *®"Sold by Druggists, price 75c per bottle.

THU HUMAN FAMILY And It* Greatest Need. The human race as a whole Is in great need of a good blood purifier. Thera are about 2100 disorders incident to the human frame, the large majority arising from the impuro'or poisonous condition of the blood. Scrofula, a disease as old as antiquity, has been inherited by generation after generation, and manifests itself to-day virulent and virtually unchanged from its ancient forms, If we are so fortunate as to escape hereditary impurities in the blood we may contract disease from the germs in the air tte breathe, the food we eat, or the water we dflnk. In Hood’s Sarsaparilla is found the medicine for all blood diseases. Its remarkable cures are its loudest praise. No remedy has ever had so marked success, no medicine was ever accorded so great publio patronage. Scrofula in its severest forms has yielded to Its potent gowers. blood poisoning and salt rheum and lany other diseases have been permanently cured by it. It is unquestionably the best Spring Medicine and blood purifier. Be sure to get Hood’s. We would like to Inquire If fishing for suckers Is an acute or an obtuse angle. Travel via the Monon Route.
