The" British museum has thirteen miles of bookshelves all filled. The newly elected queen of the laun dresses in Paris is only sixteen years old. A Moscow chemist has discovered that the white poplar tree is a natural light ning' rod. At the present day sacred pigs roam inviolate about the Buddhist monas teries of Canton and elsewhere in China. Queex Victoria has a book which is eighteen inches thick and weighs sixty three pounds. It contains the "Jubi lee" speeches and addresses. A copy of the orginal edition of "Pick wick," given by Dickens to Macready, has been sold from the late James Mc llenry's library for 26 guineas. Black snow lately fell in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland a phenomenon which was once thought to presage the black plague and other calamities, but is now known to be due to a fungus in the snow. The daughter of the once famous artist Thorpe Mrs. Thorpe Loftus who was herself once editor of the Do mestic Magazine, is defendant in pro ceedings brought by her daughter and son-in-law, who wish her declared in Eanc. Ix the month of March the collection of St Peter s pence for the vaticrfn was notably increased, the amount having been upwards of $S0,000, while the aver age monthly collections heretofore have not exceeded 00,000. Before the public declaration by the Vatican of its policy favorable to the French republic, France usually headed the list in the amount collected, but since that time it has sunk to the eighth place, the United States,standing second. Pn. Enoch Fitiiiax, of Greenwich, Cumberland county, X. J., was born May 10, 1702. is still living and will cel ebrate his 100th year May 10. He was made a mason in the year 181, at Brear ly Lodge, No. 2, Bridgeton, Cumberland county, N. J., which makes him a sev-entj--six-year-old mason. He is well and hearty to-day. in politics a whig, in religion a, Presbyterian, in habit tem perate. He has never been married, and is believed to be the oldest free mason in the United States. Readers of Dickens remember well the vigorous purification of the tender youths confided to the guardianship of Mr. Squeers; the regular dose of brim stone and treacle served relentlessly auad-vdthout discrimination. To-day in Ti!yVwiij at Harrow, the boys are doc .toned -tm masse. Each one is served vith'4-M grains of quinine at morning ..j3 jjuglit, as a safeguard against the jS&venza. The drug is administered "Rafter prayers, and tho ceremony has thus a double solemnity. As the boys go out in single file they are met by the matron, who gives each one his choice of powder or pill. The choice is made, the drug is swallowed and so the line is gradually shortened. Mr. Gladstone has written a pam phlet on the question of female suffrage in which he gives his reasons for oppos ing the enfranchisement of women. He considers that the question ought to be further discussed by the press and on the platform and that the time is not yet ripe for legislative interference. He notes as an objection that the wom an suffrage bill excludes married wom en, equally or better qualified to exer cise the franchise. He further contends that the sex largely opposes the pro posed reform, which would open the question of the right of women to fill public office. He does not fear that woman would encroach upon the power of man, but he does fear "lest we un wittingly invite her to trespass the purity, the delicacy and elevation of her own nature." Nicaragua has 4!,500 square miles and 350,000 people. The resources are great, especially in fine hard woods, dye woods, rubber and other plants. Sugar, coffee and indigo are largely cultivated. Maize and potatoes grow abundantly in the highlands. Nic aragua is especially well adapted for live stock, and on the eastern shore of her great lake thousands of cattle are raised. Gold has been discovered re cently. The trade of Nicaragua with the United States exceeds that of any other country. Coffee, crude rubber, "bananas, hides and skins are sent to the United States, and machinery, iron, steel, wheat, Hour, provisions and manufactured goods are sent back. Last year Nicaragua's exports to the United States were $1.S23,5S3, and her imports from the United States were tl,730,477. A curious book, in which the text is neither written or printed, but woven, has lately been published at Lyons. It is made of silk, and was published in twenty-five parts. Each part consists of two leaves, so that the entire volume only contains fift y leaves, inscribed with Che service of th,c mass and several pray ers. " Both the letters and the border are in black silk on a white background. Perhaps, however, the most wonderful "book in. the world is another one which is neither -written nor printed. Every letter is cut into the leaf, and as the alternate leaves are of blue paper it is as easily read as the best printing. The labor reqtiired and the patience neces sary to cnt each letter may be imagined. The work is so perfect that it seems as though done by machinery, yet every character was,made by hand. The book is entitled t'-The Passion of Christ" It is a very old volume, and was a curiosity as long ago as 1C40. It belongs to the family of the Prince dc Mgne, andis bow in FAace. Rudolph IL, of -Ger-BBy, offered for it 11,000 ducats. NEWS OF THE WEEK. Gleaned By Telegraph and MalL FEBSOXAXt AND FOX.TTICAX.

The entering wedge came in the shape of an order from the general manager of the Mis souri Pacifie railway directly affecting the privileges desired by the Omaha el evator men. The Missouri Pacific will in tho future permit grain to be stopped in transit for a period of six months and then reshipped to its destination, giving the shipper tho benefit of the through rate from the original shipping point to the final destination, with no intermediary cliarges. Prominent mem bers of the state board of transportation are of the opinion that this action of the Missouri Pacific will eventually bring the same concessions from roads running into Chicago.

ConffrrMHian Enloe Creates a Scene at tho Raum Investigation The Congressman Calls the Commissioner a Liar and At tempts to Asrault Him. Washington, April 27. There was a remarkable scene yesterday in the room where the Raum investigation was pro ceeding. Representative Enloe, one of the prosecutors in the case, called Com missioner Raum a liar and attempted to make a personal assault upon him and was only pre vented from carry ing out his purpose by the interference of other members. The utmost excite ment prevailed which was duelled green r. raum. only by a prompt adjournment The trouble began with, an inquiry as to whether or not Com missioner Raum himself had not fur nished Special Examiner Greenwalt with ?15 to be used for the purpose of entrapping an attorney named Foote, of Kalamazoo, Mich., suspected of being engaged in buying forbidden informa tion in reference to pension cases. The commissioner said that he had not given Mr. Greenwalt the mone. Mr. Enloe asked if after an adjourn ment of the committe on a previous day Mr. Raum had not, right at the table around which they were sitting, so stated to him (Mr. Enloe). The commissioner replied that he had not, for such was not the fact Mr. Enloe repeated the query several times, which led Mr. Payson to inquire if Mr. Enloe did not already have a suf ficiently square denial from the witness. Commissioner Raum, turning round in his chair, added: "Do you want another denial?"' addressing himself to Mr. Enloe. That gentleman Hushed quickly at the remark and exclaimed hotly: "You are a liar: you did say so." He then rose to his feet and in his excitement grasped a small glass sponge cup on the table in front of him, made a forward move ment to get at tin commissioner, wno was sitting in the witness chair across 1 he table.

They rose as quickly as possible, as did Commissioner Raum, who be came almost as excited as his op ponent The members of the commit tee and Mr. Cooper seized Mr. Enloe and held him before he could get around the corner of the table. They forcibly prevented him from proceeding further and in the confusion Mr. Enloe exclaimed: "You did say it" To which the commissioner retorted: "I say I didn't" As Mr. Enloe at this made an effort to free himself the commissioner shout ed: "I don't want to have any trouble with you, but the man don't live that I fear." Mr. Enloe renewed his struggles, but his efforts to get away were unavailing. The commissioner reiterated, "The man don't live that I fear," and then to avoid trouble he took up his hat and marched out of the room, Chairman Wheeler, just as he was going out of the door, calling out that there was no need for the witness to leave as he would bo amply protected. Judge Payson remarked that the wit ness had a rijrht to leave when lie was treated, to which Mr. Wheeler re- so plied that the committee had protected j and would protect the witness. j To Mr. Enloe Mr. Wheeler expressed J regret at the scene, said that he could j go on the stand and correct a statement . that Mr. Enloe thought untrue and the committee could judge between wit-1 nesses, and added that it was improper that violence should b manifested in such a place. After expressions of regret by mem bers at such an occurrence, the commit tee adjourned. THE TEXAS FAMINE. WondreiU of People Keported to Up Des titute on the Klo Grande Itorder. San Antonio, Tex., April 27. -Thad-deous C. Bell, deputy United States in ternal revenue collector, returned here yesterday from an extended trip through several of the Lower Rio Grande border counties, He states that the suffering among the people on ac count of the prolonged drought is heart rending, and that if assistance is not rendered them soon many will die of starvation. He says that hundreds of Mexicans in the country through which he passed are eking out a mere exist ence by feasting on the flesh of animals, such as cows and horses, which die of starvation. The prickly pear is also another source of food supply. No crops have been raised in that section for four years, and fields are void of all vegetation except the prickly pear, which flourishes best in dry weather. Between Souse and Alice a distance of 100 miles, the carcasses of dead cattle lay so thick that there is never a time but what many of them can be counted. Col. Clarkiion'a Health. Washington, April 27. A telegram has been received regarding the con dition of Col. J. S. Clarkson, chairman of the national republican committee. It states that CoL Clarkson's health is so bad that he can give no attention whatever to private, much less official rnm'snondence. It holds out little prospect that he will be able to attend the convention at Minneapolis or to en gage actively in the campaign after wards.
