Charleston, S. C., Has the Only One In the World. The only church in the world so far as is known that is also a lighthouse is St. Philip's chureh, Charleston, S. C. St. Philip's, which is one of the oldest churches in America, Is known as the "Westminster abbey of South Caroli na," because within and about its walls so many distinguished men lie buried, Including Jolin C. Calhoun. The history of the old church is closely interwoven with that of South Carolina, and many of the most celebrated events in the history of the province are connected with it. It Is one of the sights of Charleston, and strangers are always taken to see it and shown its graves ail monu ments. The most remarkable feature of the old church, however. Is the fact that its lofty steeple serves the purpose of a lighthouse and is used to guide the seafarer and mariner safely into the port of Charleston. The use of the stee ple as a lightliouse dates back to 1894, when the United States 1.ghthouse de partment succeeded by dint of repeated efforts in inducing the vestry of the old church to allow a lantern to be placed in the upper story of the steeple to be used as a range light for vessels entering the harbor tarough the jetties at its mouth. The light used is very powerful and Is placed at an altitude of about 125 feet above the ground. so that it is easily visible thirty miles at sea. Ships making for Charleston harbor at night always keep a sharp lookout for St. Philip's light and as soon as they sight it- get it into line with the beacon on Fort Sumter and then make a straight away run for the mouth of the jetties and up through them into the harbor of Charleston. St. Philip's church steeple is consider ed one of the handsomest architec turally in the world and always at tracts the eye of strangers entering Charleston from the sea by Its com manding height and artistic propor tions.-St. Louis Republic. NATURAL HISTORY. There are forty-eight different kinds of house fly known and classified. The pig is the only domestic animal in which no case of cancer has been noted. The Spanish mackerel is one of the fastest of food fishes and cuts the wa ter like a yacht. Fish swallow their food whole be ause they are obliged to keep contin ually opening and closing tbe mouth for the purpose of respiration. Siamese cats, both in appearance and character, closely resemble pug dogs. Even their tails -have the curious curl so familiar in these stolid dogs. Animals are found to be subject to hypnotic influence. Lobsters, it is said, can be hypnotized by standing them on their heads five or ten minutes. There is no wild breed of fowl to which the Brahtaa or Cochin can be traced. The gamecock seems to be de scended from the Cingalese jungle fowl. The flesh fly produces about 20,000 young in a season. The larva are hatched almost Instantly from the egg and at once begin their work of de struction. A Contrast. "Papa, who Is that gentleman over there on the porch?" "Don't you remember him, my child? He is the gentleman we met In the restaurant today who chatted so pleas antly with us while he waited about twenty-five minutes for his lunch." "He doesn't seem very pleasant now, papa." "Oh, no. He's at home now. See him tearing the newspaper into shreds and trying to throw his hat through the door. He .is very angry because it has taken his wife a little over four minutes to get his supper ready."-In dianapolls Sun. A Hindoo Superstition. When visits are exchanged by the friends of the Hlndoo bride and groom to complete arrangements for the wed ding, great attention is paid to omens, which are considered especially potent then. For Instance, if the groom's messengers should meet a cat, a fox or a serpent they turn back and seek a more propitious time for the errand. After the bride's father has received the offer he must delay re plying until one of the ubiquitous liz ards In his house has chirped.-Wo man's Home Companion. Ingalls on Butter. Many years ago, when John J. In galls, the brilliant Kansan, was a mem ~er of the senate, oleomargarine was a bone of contention. The debate led In galls to utter one of those epigrammat c sentences which made him famous. "I have never, to my knowledge, tasted oleomargarine," said Ingalls, "but I have stood in the presence of genuine butter with awe for Its strength and reverence for Its antiquity." Trade Craft. "We are turning out some very elabo rate scales," said the agent-"some that will attract the attention of your :ustomers." "Do you suppose I want my custom er to watch the scales?" asked the sur prised butcher. "Give me the plainest! style you have."-Chicago News. A Wasted Snub. Clarice-Katharine Is always looking out for important people, so I deter mined not to notice her at Mrs. Chic's reception. Clarence-How did it work? Clarce-Oh, she didn't even notice that I didn't notice her. - Brooklyn The Maddening Printer. "I wish to say to the congregation," said a country clergyman lately, "that the pulpit is not responsible for the er ror of the printer on the tickets for the concert In the Sunday school room. The concert Is for the benefit of the arch fund, not for the arch fiend." Resentful Man. "What did he say when yon promised to be a sister to him?" "He looked at me earnestly for a mo met or two and then said that it would be much more consistent if I would make It an aunt."-Cleveland Plain Dealer. Performed a Filial Duty. Joe was such a pathetic little man. He came from a quarter of the city where crime and misery had formed a background for the five weary years of his unnatural little life. He was late to kindergarten one morning and was asked to sit by the door until the morn ing exercises were over. Before being restored to grace the teacher asked him why he was so late. "Well," replied oe, "the patrol came after my mother, and I waited to see her off."-ChicagoG T rbunea_ SCIENTIFIC TORTURERS. Some of the Cruelties That Are Per petretcd In Vivisection. A certain Dr. Casten, wishing to study the eff et of massage upon dis locations, deliberately dislocated the limbs of nunrerous dogs, says Henry C. Merwin In The Atlantic. He pub lished an accunt of all these experi ments, and tte following is a fair e? ample of them: "Experiment 8. Poo dIe dog * * replaced on the table without chloral. I dislocate his two shoulders. The animal utters screams of suffering. I hold him for twenty minutes with his two shoulders dislo cated and the elbows tied together be hind his back * * * ." "Dr. Majendle," relates Dr. Elliston, "in one of his barbarous experiments which, I am ashamed to say, I wit nessed, begar. by cutting out a large round piece from the back of a beauti ful little puprpy." Majendie may have been by nature a brutal man, -ut even he would hardly have done that when he was young in vivisection. ' * * In this country we are not quite so cruel as the French or Italians, but we are more cruel than the English, more cruel perhaps than the Germans. A medical man in Jersey City pub lished an account of some experiments which he made upon dogs-I will not shock the reader by describing them and of this publication the British Medical Journal of Nov. 15, 1891, said, "It in a record of the most wanton and the stupidest cruelty we have ever seen chronicled under the guise of sci entif.c experiments." Story of a French Cat. ThIs cat story comes from Pont Ste. Maxence (Oise), and for such a small place It is an. extremely tall tale, says the Parls Messenger. It would appear that a resident in the place, who is an enthusiastic angler, used to keep live bait in a small tank on his premises. The angler also had a cat who natu rally was fond of fish, raw or cooked. This being so, his owner covered his tank with wire netting to keep pussy )ut of temptation. But the cat knew a trick or two and went to the nearest refuse heap for some fowl giblets which were provi dentially lying there. These she took to the tank, let them hang into the wa-' ter from the netting and began fishing an her own account. When the fish nibbled at the bait, puss would catch it with a nimble claw! The angler, no ticing the trick, threw the bait away, but half an hour later puss was at it again. We hardly know which to admire most, the cat's ingenuity or that of the oncocter of the story. Gifts For the Mourners. Some delver into the musty old rec Drds of Harvard has brought to light an amusing provision with which one of the college's eighteenth century friends coupled what was for his time a very generous bequest to the Cam bridge university. Mr. Thomas Brattle was the testa to's name, and his interest in Harvard evidently extended to the individual members of its undergraduate body, for after leaving ?200, then the equiv alent of about $3,000, to the college for ts general uses his will gives half a crown to every student belonging to it who should attend his funeral. Unfortunately no account of Mr. Brattle's obsequies is extant, but there can be little doubt that the occasion was made solemn by the presence of a large number of "chief mourners" and that good wi shes for the deceased were generally at d feelingly expressed. Not Reassmuring. "Have-ha ve you any reason to be lieve that your father will exhibit vio lence when I ask him for your hand?" Inquired the timid youth. "I have never been present on any a these occasions," replied the lovely girl evasively. "And, to tell you the truth. I have never wanted to be pres ent. I suppose I am foolishly sensi tive about these things, but I can't help t. I remenr ber that papa took me to a slaughter house when I was a little girl, and I dreamed about It every night for months afterward."-Cleve land Plain Dealer. A Funny Lang~uage. The native dictionary of Samoa Is in teresting in the light it casts upon the Samoan che racter. I find "an impossi bility, such as an old man getting a young wife.'' Another word means "to beg deliriously for fishhooks." "Un welcome" is given, "such as a visiting party that is accompanied by neither a ba~ndsome man nor a pretty maid." The definition of "widow" or "widow er" Is synor ynmous with detached shell There are also definitions that show onsiderable thought and irony. "Mean ness," for instance, can go no further than "to climb out on your own bread fruit tree to steal your neighbor's readfruit.'' Faapuatama, like a trum pet blown by wild lads, blown anyhow and all times; so conduct without con sideration. Popoga, to look owl eyed, as a person staring when food or prop erty is being divided. "Good brown earth" describes an honest, unpretend ing man. To showv how difficult the language is for the stranger I may say that the litt le word ta ineans I, we two, to beat with a stick, to play on a mu sical instrument, to reprove, to tattoo, to open a vein, to bail a cannon, to wash clothing by beating and to turn a somerSault.-Century. Her Vanity. Some years ago a marble sculptor bad his place of business on Penn ave nue near Ninth street. A business man lost his wife, and he ordered a tomb stone for her grave from the sculptor. t was to be a life size study of her. The figure was finished in due time and placed in the cemetery. Several y-ears passed, and the figure had not been paid for. The sculptor was a man of business, not given to sentiment, and he took the figure out t the cemetery, placing it on exhi'oi tion in a window at his place of busi ness. It naturally attracted a good deal of attention, :ind one day a woman in passing stopped to look at it. She rec ognized the figure, but to make certain went in and asked the sculptor and found that she was correct. The woman shook her head and said sadly, "Ah, Mary Jane was always a vain critter, but I never though she would go this far."-Pittsburg Press. An inspli.ionl. A. pretty girl boarded a crowded street car in Washington, and a pom pous old gentleman arose and gave her a seat After some time a number of pas sengers got out, and the old gentleman sank into the nearest corner with a weary sigh. "I wouldn't get up again," he mur uted, "f'or an angel." And then, as he caught the eyes of the girl fixed up on him reproachfully, he added quick ly, "I mEan, madam, for another an g'.lw"-rpean Maazine. TRIUMPHS OF SCIENCE. Sensitiveness of the Implements of the Modern Laboratory. The eye and the ear have long been regarded as marvels of mechanism, quite the most wonderful things in the world. But compared with the im plements of a present day laboratory the sensitiveness of all numan organs seems gross enough. A photographic plate, coupled with a telescope, will re veal the presence of millions of stars whose light does not affect the retina in the least. The microscope, too, with its revelations of the world of the in finitely small. tells us how crude, after all, is this most delicate of the senses. Indeed. we may liken it to a piano where only a single octave, toward the middle, sounds. From the ultra violet to the lowest reaches of the spectrum is a range of some nine octaves of light vibrations, of which. save for our new mechanical senses, we should never have been conscious of but one. The ear hears little of what Is going on around us. By means of a micro phone the tread of a fly sounds like the tramp of cavalry. Our heat sense is very vague. We need a variation of at least one-fifth of a degree on a ther mometer to realize any difference in temperature. Professor Langley's lit tle bolometer will note the difference of a millionth of a degree. Tt is two hun dred thousand times as sensitive as our skin.-Carl Snyder in Harper's Maga zine. Falling From a Great Height. It will be remembered that Mr. Whymper, who had a severe succession of falls once in the Alps, without losing his consciousness, declares emphatical ly that as he bounded from one rock to another he felt absolutely no pain. The same thing happens on the battlefield. The entrance of the bullet into the body is not felt, and It Is not till he feels the blood flowing or a limb paralyzed thaf the soldier knows he is wounded. Persons who have had several limbs broken by a fall do not know which limb is broken till they try to rise. At the moment of a fall the whole intel lectual activity Is increased to an ex traordinary degree. There is not a trace of anxiety. One considers quick ly what will happen. This is by no means the consequence of "presence of mind." It is rather the product of ab solute necessity. A solemn composure takes possession of the victim. Death by fall is a beautiful one. Great thoughts fill the victim's soul. They fall painlessly into a great blue sky. Drugstore Humor. A Philadelphia druggist has made the following collection of amusingmissives that have been sent to him from time to time: "I have a cute pain in my baby's stummick. Please give bearer some thing to cure it." "My little girl has eat up a lot of but tons. Please send a nemetic by the enclosed boy." "Dear doctor a dog bit my child on the leg please send some cork plaster and cutter eyes." "Pleas send by bearer one postal card. Also kindly give bearer, my son, some licorice root." Deer doctor wot is good for tirefoy fever send some quick I got it." "Let my Johny have a glas of sody watter. I wud come myself but I am washing. P. S. tbe 5 cents is for the sody watter." "If you can fill the enclosed prescrip tion for 25 cents do so. If not return by bearer." Ants That Strike. Certain kinds of black ants have lit tle yellow ants which do most of their work for them. Once in awhile these little yellow fellows will go on strike, and the "blacks" try to force them back to work by cutting off their food supply. If that does not succeed, they will attack the strikers in force or make a raid and get another gang of "yellows" into the colony. But the newcomers, as a rule, join the strikers. The strike ends by the "yellows" es caping and founding a colony for them selves, or they give in and settle down to work again. safeguarding Himself. "Are you a detective?" asked Mr. Meekton. "I am," answered the man with the turndown collar and the white necktie. "Well, I wa'nt to employ you. I want you to get out your false whiskers and your dark lantern and dog my foot steps uight and day. Henrietta's gone out of town to visit some relatives, and I don't want her to be obliged to take my word for anything."-Washington Star. An Improved Neighborhood. Mrs. Uppish-Just think! It's only six months ago since we moved away from next door to you. We're in a much better neighborhood now. Mrs. Sharpe-So are we. Mrs. Uppish-Why, where did you move? Mrs. Sharpe-Oh, we haven't moved at all.-Philadelphia Press. An Example. "The chimney is smoking," he said. "Yes," she retorted; "that's the effect of bad axample. Usually the chimney has consideration enough to do its smoking outdoors." Thus it camne about that he finished his cigar on the back porch-Chicago Post. Pointed. "Why are you crying, little boy?" "One of them artists paid me a dime to sit on the fence while he sketched me." "Well, is tbere any harm In that?" "Yes, s-sir. It was a barb wire fence."-Phladelphia Record.
