MEMORIES OF MARK TWAIN.
Two Lettora tha Humorist Wrote to
Henry Wattarson.
"Mark Twain—An Intimate Mem
ory," Is the title of Henry Watterson’s
article about bis cousin as It appears
In the American Magazine. Mr. AVat
terson recites the following Incident as
being typical of Mark Twain’s whlm
slcul point of rlew:
"His mind turned ever to the droll.
Once In London I was living with my
family at 103 Mount street. Between
103 aud 102 there was the parochial
workhouse—quite a long and Imposing
building. One evening, upon coming
in from an outing, I found a letter he
had written on the sitting room table
and left with bis card. He spoke of
the shock he had received upon find
ing that next to 102—presumably 103—
was the workhouse. He had loved me.
but hud always feared that I would
end by disgracing the family—be
ing hanged, or something—but the
‘work’us.’ that was beyond him; he
had not thought it would come to that.
And so on through pages of horseplay,
his relief on ascertaining the truth
and learning his mistake, his regret
at not finding me at home, closing
with a dinner Invitation. Once at Ge
neva. In Switzerland. 1 received a long,
overflowing letter, full of buoyant odd
ities. written from London. Two or
three hours later came a telegram:
‘Burn letter. Blot It from your mem
ory. Susie Is dead.’ ”
Susie was Mrs. Clemens.

OABTORIA.
A* t»o- >> The l,fnd You Have Always Boughs
A CHINESE TITBIT.
Eggs That Hava Bean Preserved For
a Century or More.
When LI Hung Chang made his tour
of the world his commissariat car
ried with It a supply of Chinese pre
served eggs for the venerable ambas
sador’s special use. Some of these
eggs were exhibited In New York
while he was staying here, and a few
experts had the temerity to sample
them. “They were not so bad after
all." was the verdict of one American
connoisseur, “although by their looks
you would think they would come un
der the ban of the pure food law.”
The eggs were Incased In clay and
when unpacked looked like pieces of
pumice stone. They are preserved In
this way by the Chinese for a cen
tury or more, and LI Hung Chang ad
mitted that the hen which laid the
eggs for his morning meal might have
been decapitated anywhere from a
quarter to half a century before he
was born. The process of keeping Is
very primitive, but as effective as It is
simple. The eggs are first boiled hard,
and then while they are hot they are
wrapped In soft cloy and packed
away.
In this condition the Chinese claim
they will keep forever and not lose
their flavor or wbolesomeness. Indeed,
they consider that age Improves the
flavor. LI Hung Chang’s commissariat
brought the eggs for his personal use
In bags packed in rice busks, but as
the clay was hard there was not much
danger of breaking them. When
opened the “white” was found to bo
almost black and the yolks green.
The flavor, however, was preserved.
The Chinese chop these preserved
boiled eggs and decorate most of their
viands with them. They also enter
largely into all their sauces.
Duck eggs are also preserved by the
Chinese In a somewhat similar fashion.
There Is a considerable trade In duck
eggs of the Peking and Muscovy
breeds, and many Chinese in this coun
try Import them from China In the
preserved condition. The duck eggs
are boiled and preserved In a paste of
charcoal Instead of clay.—Harper’s
Weekly.
SEARCHLIGHTS.
A Special Pattern Must Be Used on
the Suez Canal.
Every war vessel carries from one to
twenty searchlights, and every vessel
of any description whatever passing
through the Suez canal has to carry
one of a special pattern.
A searchlight consists essentially of
an arc lamp of special form, a para
bolic mirror and a case to hold the lot,
the case being mounted so as to be
capable of movement in two direc
tions—viz, vertically and horizontal
ly. The hood, as this case is called,
is made of sheet steel about 3.32
inch thick. The turnable, trunnions,
etc., are cast In gun metal. The
arms which support the hood are of
cast steel. The lamp box Is form
ed as part of the hood. The mir
ror is carried on springs in the
back cover, and at the front of the
bood is a “front glass” mounted in a
gun metal ring, and the dispersion
lens when carried is hinged on in
front of this. Training is carried out
by means of a worm and worm wheel
or by a rack and pinion. Slewing is
effected by means of a pinion which
gears into a crown wheel on the un
derside of the turntable, or else it is
doue directly by band.
The Suez canal regulations require
that the projector shall be capable of
giving the light required under two
different conditions—in the first case a
broad, fiat beam of light illuminating
both banks and the canal uninterrupt
edly. this being used when no other
ship is approaching; in the other case
they require a beam having the same
angle of divergence and consequently
the same width as the first, but divid
ed into two portions, with a dark in
terval between, thus giving light at
both sides, but not directly in front,
and so not interfering with the navi
gation of the approaching vessel.—J.
M. Heslop in Cassier’s Magazine.
A Fortune In Snuffboxes.
Count Nesselrode, the Russian states
man of the last century, was a famous
collector of snuffboxes. He collected
them as a diplomatist, receiving one or
two for each treaty he signed, and
when he had got $100,000 worth of
them turned them into cash and be
came a capitalist His capital he in
vested so Judiciously that his descend
ants are multimillionaires. The mor
al of Coant Nesselrode’s experience is
that a snuffbox is not to be sneezed
at
Teaching the Teacher.
A village parish clerk who employed
a grammarian to teach his daughter
heard him with much surprise define
the use of the articles “a.” '“an” and
“the.”
“You cannot place ‘a,’ thevslugular
article, before plural nouus. No one
can say, ‘A houses, a horses, a’"”—
“Hold there!” said the parish - clerk.
“I must contradict you in that Don’t
I at church every Sunday say •Amen?’ ”
