As a matter of fact, there are plenty j of pirates extant, although they are sel- j dem so bold in any sea as to attack a vessel flying a European flag. The Malay and eastern watgrs swarra with seemingly commercial junks and prcas, | which wear all the air of respectability, but are none the less on a constant watch j for becalmed traders and cargo ships undermanned. In the Formosa channel the outward and homeward bound passengers will see apparently innocent vessels leisurely drifting in pairs before the wind. They drag between them a huge cable, to which is fastened a sweepnet, and if nothing better turn up, they have to be content with what tunnies and turtle they may thus catch off the Pcscatores or the Paracels, or in those waters. the home of the cyclone, where rises the lonely Piedra Bianca. If, however, a Tonkincso cr Chinese rice or opium boat drifts by and no embarrass ing European is near, the nets are drawn in, the swarthy fishermen get out their spears and muskets, and combine to board and ravage the unlucky trader, cutting the throats of all on board and sinking the junk when she has been thoroughly cleaned out. Instances have been known in which Canton or Fuchaa pirates have shipped as seemingly harmless and respectable vcyagerson board even European steamships sailing out of Chinese ports, and have risen, when the vessel was well at sea, and massacred her captain and crew. In such a case ono hears of it, for European blood is an expensive liquid J to spill in the east, but no mention ever j comes to public ears of the hundreds of craft sailed and owned by natives, which year by year,"' in the seas cast of Singapore, fall victims to the treacherous pi- | rate of the Malay peninsula, or Celebes or Javan archipelago. A well manned merchant ship, with : a maxim gun cn beard, would be fairly safe, for they can only attack in their boats, and any quick firing cannon of tho ; modern typo "would be more than they : could comfortably face. A steamer, too, as long as her engines keep going, is per- j fectly secure, for their best chance is in those dead calms which come upon the ; eastern seas when the trader is helpless- j ly fixed, while the "water lats" can : bring their dhow or proa closo up with j long sweeps and finish off the rest in j their boats.?London Telegraph. An Italian Festival. Toward midday the crowd attains its j largest proportions; then tho suspension ! of the church services, hunger and ! fatigue help to lessen its number, j Groups form under the trees and picnic; ; others surround the "friggitori" who are busy frying chickens, fish, sweetbreads, rice balls and many other compounds in the boiling oil of their greatcopper pans. In tho wineshops there is : much drinking going on, intermixed with laughing, jesting, fooling, quarrel- I ing, the townsfolk unmercifully jeer- j ing at the country people, some of whom laugh with and at their tormentors, i while others preserve a sulky silence. Tho Repivblicaus begin to sing choruses : which are professions cf their political faith, to which the socialist group reft plies with gibes, also sung in chorus. . The simple melody once united to tho stornello, artless outpouring cf lovers' j joys and ^sorrows, sung at happy bar- | vests and merry vintages and by the se- j rece voices cf peasant maidens at work : in quiet fields, is degraded and wedded to rhymed doggerel, spiced with insult ! and blasphemy. On tho steep banks under the thick ilex shade many are asleep.

Musical Sand. _ Mr. Cams Wilson found that fine sand j from Stud land bay, which was sonorous 1 cn the beach, but mnto when carried j homo in a box, gave out a shrill note j when struck in a teacup. The glazed j sides cf the cup increased the intensity ; cf vibration of the sand by increasing tko number of polished surfaces in contact, and this was proved by putting the - same sand in various vessels with rough interiors, and by lining the glazed and polished vessels with silk, when it became mute again. Sand of the Eigg type, possessing the physical conditions necessary for the production of music in great perfection, ^aro musical in receptacles of almost any kind or form. The smallest quantity of musical sand from which Mr. Wilson got a true note . was a thimbleful of Eigg sand. Less j perfect musical sand, such as that of Studland bay, was found to be usaally ; mute, except in situ or in vessels of hard, glazed interiors and of certain definite form. Some "sulky" sands not only needed vessels of hard, glazed in- j teriors and of deSnite form, but also a j box or small pedestal of wood?a "coax- j er"?on which the vessel had to bo ; i placed before the notes became audible, i ^ A "sulky" sand could be rendered far more musical by being sifted, washed i and boiled, giving out notes, after this !

The Italian Actress Rises to Greater Uoichis Th&u the French-woman. As vet Duse has permitted us only a glirapse of her gallery of dramatic portraits. Elsewhere she hag achieved triumphs iu plats differing as widely as "La Fcnmio do Claude'' and "L'Abhesso de Jouarre." L?.er Juliet and Ophelia liave aroused fervent enthusiasm, and her Cleopatra is still a bone of critical contention between the commentators who hold that naturalness is the chiefest stage virtue and those who prefer the dazzling artifice of which Sarah Bernhardt is passed mistress. If it be the first object of good acting to hold the minor up to nature, the French actress in these later days would bo unwise to dispute the palm with her Italian rival. The women whom she now depicts are, fur the most part, mere j monstrosities, fanciful developments | from one piorbid and extravagant type. If Duse, in at tempting some of them, has failed to emphasize all the violent and impossible contrasts of which t hoyare compounded, and to amaze or horI rify by a cry or a gesture, she at least ! lias contrived to impart to them, hy her J intuitive sense of truth and proportion, : some semblance of humanity. Wherever I there is a foundation of human heart to i work upou her power is absolute, and I she can interpret all moods with almost equal facility. As lias been pointed cut, she can sound all the depths of pathos, or simulate a paroxysm cf rage or scorn with the same veracity; can employ with delightful effect all the wiles of feminine seductiveness, play the coquette with unsurpassable archness and vivacity and tread the perilous paths of the riskiest French comedy with u ligh tness, a sparkle, an assurance and an adroitness altogether Parisian. She possesses, moreover, in a larger measure than any other actress the protean gift of genuine impersonation. Willi a face and figure devoid of any peculiar characteristic, she identifies herself with the fictitious personality by subtle and appropriate transformations, in which gaU, gesture, carriage and facial expression all play their part. In this respect, beyond question, she is tho greatest actress of the day, and among men Salvini alone takes rank above her or beside her. Ilcr powers in high tragedy or poetic comedy must be for us as yet matter for conjecture only.?J. Rankcn Towse in Century. A Traitor as l>a>:o as Dreyfus. The arrest of French spies in Ger ? ** _ t-V many ana ci overman spies 111 r ranco lias long ceased to possess the element of novelty cr to attract more than passing attention. But it is none the less true that an incident of this sort, if it came at a moment of international ferment, might serve to excite passions on both sides of the Vosgcs as readily now as a quarter of a century ago. The caso of tire man Schvarz, who, with his family, has been imprisoned in Paris, is one particularly calculated to impress the French imagination. If he is guilty beyond doubts, as Lc Temps declares, ho is something much worse than an ordinary spy. He is an Alsatian by birth, served in the French army during the war,and afterward elected to retain his French nationality. This gave him special claims to official consideration and secured him a good berth in the polico service and a decoration to boot. It also put him in the very heart of the patriotic clubs and societies which M. Derculedo and his friends have organized and enabled him to learn the names of Frenchmen who were sent into Germany to spy out facts about the fortresses and to warn the Berlin authorities cf their coming. He ranks, therefore, in the public mind as a traitor quito as base as Dreyfus, and at this time of general uneasiness his caso may easily arouso even deeper national resentment.?Saturday Rev:'* w. Edison and tlio "Break." "Dr. Ncrvin Green," says "Alegargee" in the Philadelphia Times, "the long time president of the Western Union Telegraph company, claimed, that he gave Edison the employment which was the beginning of liis successful career, to which, as is well known, the Western Union corporation has largely contributed. Edison had been bothering the officers of the company with telegraphic /!c>T-ir?<ia rIi.--.T- lin/i Tin noo/1 rvf TTr> r>.i?im into the office cue day when it was im- j possible to obtain communication between New York and Albany, and the seat cf the difficulty could not be located. Ho was banteringly invited to remedy the trouble. He said lie could do so in two hours. Ho was laughed at and given two days for the task. His process was very simple'. He telegraphed to tho best operator in Pittsburg and instructed him to telegraph to the best operator in Albany. The latter telegraphed his New York line down as far as he conld, feeling his way from point to point, and sending the results to tho Pittsburg man, who forwarded them to Edison. In less than one hour Edison said to the anxious officials, 'The break is two miles from Poughkeepsie.' That simple method insured his status with the Western Union people and won for him a hearing in all his schemes." Tho Last Ccmmanuer. General Nelson A. Miles will probably bo the last of the great generals of the war of tho rebellion to command the army of the United States. lie will not reach the ago limit for retirement for nght years yet, in August, 1903, and by :bat time all of the major generals and Drigadier generals now in the active service will have been retired. General j Ruger has but a year to servo; General Morritt retires in 1900; General Brooke, :ho present senior brigadier general, in 1902; General Wheat on in 1897, General Otis in 1902, General Forsyth in 1898 and General Bliss and General Joppinger in 1899.

Pierce] Chief Consulting Physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y., was the first to introduce a Little Pill laxative and catiiartic purposes these sugar-coated "Pellets" are superior in a great many ways to all mineral waters, scdlitz powders, salts, castor oil, fruit syrups, laxative teas, and other purgative compounds. Made of concentrated vegetable ingredients, they act in a mild, natural way. Their secondary effect is to keep the liver active and the bowels regular, not to further constipate, as is the case with other pills. They clon't interfere in the least with the diet, habits or occupation, and produce no pain, griping or shock to the system. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure biliousness, sick and bilious headache, dizziness, eostiveness, or constipation, sour stomach, loss of appetite, coated tongue, indigestion, or dyspepsia, windy* belchings, " heart-burn," pain and distress after eating, and kindred derangements of the liver, stomach and bowels. These "Feb lets" are easily dissolved in the stomach and absorbed into the blood, stimulating: a flow of bile from the liver, and arousing: to activity all the glandular secretions. Thus they act in nature's awn way. In proof of their superior excellence, it can be truthfully said, that they are always adopted as a household remedy after the first trial. Put up in glass vials, therefore always fresh and reliable. One little "Pellet" is a laxative, two are mildly cathartic. As a "dinner pill," to promote digestion, take one each day after dinner. To relieve distress front overeating, they arc unequalcd. They are tiny, sugar-coated granules; any child will readily take them. Once used, always in favor. Accept no substitute that may be recommended to be "just as good." It may for better for the dealer, because of paying him a better profit, but he is not the one who needs help. Asiuseu. Mr. W. M. Buff Will Not Sell the Petrified Man. Columbia K^g'ster. Mr. W. M. Buff, the owner of the petrified man, has refused an offer of 835,000 for bis "man" and that, too, from'a responsible party, who could easily pay that amount. The offer was bona fide; but Mr. Buff would not accept it as he thinks that he can make double that amount in a few years. Verily few finds have attracted as much attention as this one, especially from the fact that it was dug up out of the liver within five miles of this city. One trouble, however, was that the petrified body was found in.-at hoforo <ho on?nin<7 of the - w J i. o State Tair, and many thought that it was the work of some Yankee fakir who thought that he could make a considerable sum ia Columbia. A close examination proved that it was no fake, aud that it was an actual body turned to stone. It has also proven a fortune to Mr. Buff. He will remain here sometime longer and then take it to Charleston and from thence to New York. He has decided not to take it to Atlanta, as many there will consider it a fake, which will do more harm than good. Mr. Buff expects to realize a big sum in New York and when he becomes tired of carrying his treasure around he will then accept some of the handsome offers made for it. Many prominent citizens have exam! ined the man carefully and they all pronounce him a petrified man. ?- * . "When most needed it is not unusual for your family physician to be away from home.
