Its own size. Now and then such a
tube known as "fulgurite" is found and
dug up. Fulgurites have been followed
into the sand by excavation for nearly
30 feet. They vary in interior diame
ter from the size of a quill to three
inches or more, according to the "bore"
of the Hash. Fulgurites are found also
in solid rock, though very naturally of
slight depth, and frequently existing
merely as a thin, glassy coating ou the
surface. Such fulgurites occur in as
tonishing abundance on the summit of
Little Ararat in Armenia. The rock is

directions by little tubes filled with
bottle-green glass formed from the

in the national museum which has the

Some wonderful fulgurites were found
by Humboldt, on the high Nevada de
Toluca, in Mexico. Masses of rock
were covered w ith a thin layer of gree n
glass. Its peculiar shimmer in the sun
led Humboldt to ascend the precip

COUNTESS ITO'S BRAVERY

As-
8HSSIIIS.
Many years ago, when quite a young
man, during a rebellion. Count Ito was
hiding from his enemies, who, having
tracked him to his house, sent a hand
of "sohsis" to assassinate him. says
the Corn hi 11 Magazine. On hearing his
enemies approaching, and trapped like
a rat In its hole, the count drew his
sword and prepared to die, hut the
countess whispered, "Do not die. there
is hope still," and. removing the
"hibatfhi," or firebox, and lifting up
the mats and the planks bensnth, sae
induced her husband to conceal him
self in the hollow space which exists
under the floors of all Japanese houses.
The murderers broke into the room
just as the firebox had been replaced
and demanded of the countess their
victim. In vain they threatened and
cruelly ill-treated her, dragging her
about the room by her long black
hair. But it was of no avail; they
could not shake her resolute fidelity.
Thanks to her courage, Count Ito
escaped and has lived to give his coun
try a new constitution and become one
of the greatest statesmen of modern
Japan. I often wonder when I see the
countess, now a delicate, gray-haired,
ittle lady, at the courage and presence
of mind she displayed at that critical
moment of her life.

WORDS OF UOoTUN ORIGIN.
Some i:xr'KHlmiM Tliut Have lieen
Coined In Ttmt City.
From the lioston Transcript: At
the meeting of the IJostonlan society
in the old etatehouse C. V. Ernst de
livered an interesting talk on the sub
j' ct, "Words Coined ia Boston." Mr.
Ernst said that Gov. Alros intro
duced among other unsalurary things
the term "your excellency," as applied
to the governor. The speaker claimed
the word "bos was first used by a1
man named Gardner, who came In
ship from the North sea in charge ot
some mechanics. The word "help,"
ii. caning a person hired to assist, is
LosLonian, and was considered a very
honorable appellation. Mr. Ernst men-,
tioned the following as having had
their origin in Boston: "Ileal estate,"
"corder," "dockage," "measurer of
wood," "advice and consent," "mixed
drinks," "dooming board," "trua
Ejents," referring to hotel accommoda
tion, used as ear4y as 1709 in a per
mission given by the selectmen of Bos
ton; "fire ward," "fix," "stormy," in
the Boston sense of rainy, cloudy, but
uut necessarily implying wind;
"blanks," in the sense of "blank
forms"; "limbs," applied to both anus
and legs and described as being pe
culiar; "depreciating currency," "fluc
tuating currency," and "promoter,"
claimed by the speaker to have been
first introduced in a treatise on finance
by Dr. Douglas; "Boston brown
bread," first used in 174C in descrip
tion of a baked mixture of rye or wheat
with Indian meal; "assortment," re
placing an original sortlment; the use
of the "store" for "shop"; "goodies,"
"factory," for manufactory," In 17C7;
also in the revolutionary and post
revolutionary period various phrases,
including "continental congress." Mr.
Ernst described "block" and "police"
as terms originating in Boston, saying
that the police were thus named here
long before the term was applied to
them in England. He held that "bind
ery" was coined in Boston; also that
the telephone "hello" went from here
to all parts of the worlti.- "Teamster"
was Boston coined; so was "bicycler."
"Democrat" had its origin in Philadel
phia in 1793, and was first used to de
scribe a party policy In Boston in 1804
BRAVE LITTLE SUNFISH.
Its light with a Carp Ten Times It
Size.
"I saw an amusing thing the other
day, while out fishing in Fish lake,"
said James Weston to a St. Louis
Globe-Democrat man. "I was catching
fish about as fast as any one who
was not fishing for the market would
care to, and many of them were sun
fish. In a sheltered spot I noticed one
of these little fellows standing motion
less, except his fins, which occasionally
moved very slowly. I dropped my
hook, with a small minnow on, close
to the fish's nose, when it moved up,
took hold of the bait very gingerly,
carried it away about three feet,
dropped it and glided back to its place
by the stone, once more settling itself
as it was before I disturbed it. Look
ing closely, I discovered a fungus be
neath the fish that looked like a bit
of colored lace. I then knew that the
little goggle-eye was on its spawning
bed. Again in the spirit of fun, I
dropped the minnow near the sunfLsh.
She snapped It by the tall and lugged
it off fully two yards and let It drop,
scudding back to the nest again like a
shot. I concluded not to disturb it
again and was about to leave when a
lubberly carp came moving along. The
ugly fish let itself rise gradually, as
if to take a survey of its surround
ings. Its shadow fell across the sun
fish nest, and, like a weathercock in
a gale, the little sunfish swung around
and faced the carp that was ten times
its size and fifteen times its weight.
Mr. Carp moved on toward the care
fully prepared nest, when, like a cy
clone, the little sunfish, with dorsal fin
erect, made a charge on the big dis
turber of the peace. The sunfish JM
not attack the carp's head, but, with,
bristling spines, shot under the big
fish's belly and prodded him with their
needle points. The old carp humped
his back and began wobbling away,
but the sunfish circled and gave it an
other rake with its dorsal fin, when I
noticed about six inches of intestina
protruding from the carp's abdomen
That seemed to satisfy the pugnacious
sunperch and it returned to Its sentinel
duty above its nest. I have often heard
of the little sunfish's game qualities.
but I never before saw one In action.
From that demonstration I don't tbink
the carp will destroy much of the
spawn of the little sunny, and I m
sure they won't get near a bass bed."
A Kellc of Old TarU.
A very curious relic of old Tarls is
about to he removed the house In the
Rue de Venise, built in 1402 by the cel
ebrated alchemist, palmist and philan
thropist, Nicholas Flamel. It is one
of the few specimens of fifteenth cen
tury architecture still to be seen In the
French capital.says the London Cnron
icle. Until the revolution its upper
floors were let to poor old men and
women, who, in accordance with
Flamel's will, had only to pray for the
repose of his soul and to say an ave

blocked up the entrance to the temples
with masses of thorns, as a penalty
for keeping the fields dry. It's just as

business If he wants to keep his job.
