Natives Disappearing. !
From the administrative report of th'3
Andaman Islands for the past official
year, which has recently been issued in
Calcutta, it appears mat tne aoongmes
of the archipelago are disappearing so
rapidly that Mr. Portman states the
present generation may be considered as
the last of tne great Anuaman tnoe. aji
the people of Rutland Island and Port
Campbell are now dead and very few
remain in the South Andamans. Apart
from the mortality from infections
diseases, it is said that the few children
who are now lxrn do not survive.
Mr. Portman is endeavoring to keep
the tribe alive as long as possible, and
he is collecting all the children at his
house, where they are well fed and
cared for; but thi3 can onlj' postpone for
a short time the extinction of the race.
For many centuries the people lived
comjdetely isolated from the rest of the
world, but, like the Pacific islanders,
th&v seem unable to withstand contact
with external civilization. Galignani'3

Kept General Grant's Horses.
Sixtv Ions vears, with their sunshine
and shadow, have passed since Mr.
John T. Price, the well known livery
man, first saw the light of day, and all
day Mondav he was kept busy receiving
congratulations on his golden jubilee.
Mr. Price was born in Alexandria on
April 11, 1S32.
Having been in business at his present
stand for twenty-seven years he is tull
of reminiscence s f great Americans
who patronized his fiiors. Among these
was General Grant, who came in one,
davand said: Price. I want to take a
spin over thy road today. Let me have
ono of your fastest trotters." When the
general returned lie was profuse in his
praise of the horse he had driven, and
said:
"Price, that fellow was chain light
ning itself."
General Grant's Arabian steeds, pre
sented to him by the sultan of Turkey,
were placed in Mr. Price s care when
they first came here. Washington Post.
Outer Earthquake Efleets.
An old sheep herder who dwells in a
secluded f.;.t in the Sutter county buttea
made his annual visit to this city
Wednesday, iind from him we learn of
sorjo phenomenal and interesting cir
cumstances as a result of the earthquake
of Tuesday morning.
The lonely camp of the old bhepherd
is far up iu 'ii.ebnttes.and is surrounded
with cliffs densely covered with massive
rocks and lnwlders, which have with
stood the storms of ages and furnished
mills for tin- aborigines to grind their
!corns iind manr. inita berries into Hour
from li e remotest antiquity.
TP.;-' Id h rder had just emerged from
his cabin on this memorable morn, and
was gathering kindling with which to
prepare his morning meal before turning
hi.-. Hock o::l the range for their day's
forage, and th" wonderful sight he wit
nessed will never bu forgotten. When
the trembling bcran numerous sparks of
a bright blue r began issuing from
the rocks, rinsed by the friction as they
were to.-se.l t ami fro by the surging
! earth. As th tremors increased the
i number of sparks did likewise, until at
'one time the hillsides appeared as one
! sheet of fire with millions of sparks dart-
ing here and there as if dancing for joy.
; As the trembling subsided the? sparks
! gradually disappeared, and in a moment
I all was total darkness.
Shortly after the sun had started on
its journey in the eastern horizon the
attention of the old shepherd was at
tracted by the great branches of trees
which had fallen to the ground, and
those which remained intact seemed to
horrify the wild birds, as they would
attempt to alight, and then, with a
frightened scream, would pass rapidly
on, only to repeat the caper at the next
tree. An investigation proved that mil
lions of lizards and snakes had taken
refuge in the trees during their fright
and had become so numerous on the
projecting branches that they were
forced to succumb to the immense
weight and fell to the ground. This is
the onlv instance of damage reported in
Yuba or Sutter county.-KMarysviiie

Perhans the following anecdote may
be useful to readers whose houses and
srardens abut on railways. An eminent
"menagerist" lives in a suburb where
forty trains pass his garden every hour.
The weather was cold, coals were ex
pensive, for the recent strike was just
then at its height. The "menagerist,"
however, was a man of resource; he
conceived a plan for utilizing the forty
trains an hour.
From his menatrerie in town he
bronsrht a largo Barbary ape, which un
fortunate animal was chained to the top
of a pole at the end of the garden. The
result was as pleasant as owning a col
liery, without any wages to pay or fear
of floods and explosions. Every stoker
and occasionally a driver on every
train that passed had a shot with a
lump of coal at the Barbary ape. The
B. A. was never hit, but the garden was
littered with coal, which the "menager
ist" triumphantly conveyed to his cel
lars. London Tit-Bits.

which was coming down from up river,
at Great Works, recently. The train
started up aud the dog still stain

of twenty miles an hour. The dog did

A Well Traveled Letter.
An old member of a well known Bres
lau institution sent on the 13th of May,
1891, a post card from Cassel, addressed
to "Dr. Emin Pacha, in German East
Africa." The card contained a poetical
allusion to the great traveler, and was
signed hy a number of other members
of the institute. It arrived at Zanzibar
on the 14th of June, 1891, and at Baga-
moyo on the lGth of that month. The
post cartf was then sent back to Dar-es-Salaain,
where it arrived on the 12th of
March of this year, and received the fol
lowing official comment: "Ans dem In
nem zuruck. Emin nicht erreichbar."
(Returned from the interior. Emin not
attainable.) On the 5th of May this
same iost card found its way back to
Cassel and is now in the hands of the
sender. London News.

The Turtle Seed Tree.
Among a collection of curious plants
recently received at the Kew Gardens,
England, is a specimen ot a curious tree
from the Solomon islands. It is believed
to be a new genus of the order of Sapo
tacea?, to which the sapodiller of Florida
belongs. The tree is known to the na
tives of the Solomon islands as the "tur
tle seed tree," on account of the close
resemblance which the seeds bear to a
turtle. London Letter.

barley. She harvested the crop with
a pair of shears and sowed the amount
received the next year, again har
vesting it with her shears. The third

Reply from the Pew.
"Joe" Jones, one of Sam's numerous 1
brothers, has enlisted in the ministry.
His first sermon was preached in a coun
try church at Pine Log before a large
congregation of farmers, backwoodsmen
and crackers. Sam's methods were fol
Imvpd with considerable success, but
when Joe branched off on his own hook
he struck a snag. He caused his hearers
to wince when, slapping the Bible nearly
off the pulpit, ho exclaimed:
"A man what will cuss a oath'll
steal!"
There was a lively shifting among the
pews and much cautious looking around
and head shaking. Joe saw, and deter
mined to push his point.
"Brethren and sisters," he repeated,
'1 want to say to you that a man what
will cuss a oath'll steal! What have
you got to say to that."
An aged cracker arose at the back of
the church and, fastening his glittering
gray eye on Joe, drawled through his
nose:
"All 1 got ter say is it's er gol dern lie!"
Joe was so discouraged that he rested
on his oars two weeks before making
any more bold assertions. New York
Tribune.
Registration In Germany.
In Germany the exigencies of compul

should be registered from the day of his
birth to that of his death. The govern
ment must be able to lay hands upon
him at any time. A man can accom
plish no civil act without producing his J
papers of identity. He cannot set up in
business, nor buy land, nor ouram a
situation, nor marry, nor get out of any
scrape with the judicial authorities, nor
leave the country without satisf ying ,
the police as to who he is, where he was '
born, who were his parents, etc. Lon-
