The Mohammedan population of the Turkish Empire has been very aptly compared to an immense religious confraternity; it is, in fact, a vast military guild or brotherhood, according to the author of the Sultan and His Subjects, bound to obey the commands of its supreme chiefs, the Sheik-ul-Islam and the Sultan. Every Turk ought, in a certain sense, to be a priest and a warftor. Remembering this fact, we can W readily understand the ease With which the spirit of fanaticism is roused in those portions of the empire where the Turks are in the majority, and the ferocity with which an otherwise docile and somewhat indifferent natured people will behave under the influence of what I may call religious intoxication." In 1896, Bermuda lily bulbs were exported to the United States to the value of over S60,000.

This ia probably the first time in the history of the office that a coin of that denomination was ever beheld by the attaches. The coin came from the Fifth National Bank, to which one of the depositors had taken it to find out how much it was worth. The tellers at the bank were unable to decide the question, and the coin was sent to Uncle Sam's employes in the Federal Building, but no one there would accept it for the Treasury for its face value. Coin Teller Robert Brasher, who is a numismatist of considerable repute, as well as Teller White, who is considered one of the most expert counterfeit /lo+er>t<-.rs in thfi rountrv. and Cashier Stout, said that they had never heard of the Government coining a piece of money of that denomination, and that they would not accept it even at its face value. The tables giving the coinage of money from the earliest date to the present time were looked up, but there was no record of the Government ever having coined a S-i gold piece. The coin that was presented was placed on the scales and was found to weigh 108 2-10 grains, making it worth about twenty cents more than its face value. / loanrMM+i/in r?"f tllA Oflin IS ap XUV UV4V1 1|/VAVU V? ?MW follows: It is almost the size of a $5 gold piece.

In recounting the ministrations oi John Wesley in Georgia, where the famous preacher sowed the first seeds of Methodism in America, the Rev. "W. T T? T> in +Vip TiftriiAR* Hnmf Journal, claims that Wesley established the first Sunday-school in th world, at Savannah. In connection with his other labors, which were indeed prodigious, Wesley soon after hie arrival in Georgia, in 1736, began to provide for the Sunday-school instruction of the children of the parish. His devotion to children at times almost amounted to infatuation. Children were likewise equally attached to him, as shown in their intercourse with him. Both on week days and Sabbaths he gave no little attention to educational work. Ab a preliminary labor on the Sabbath, before the evening service, he required them to convene in the church, I at which time he catechised them. I thoroughly and furnished them with additional teaching from the Bible itself. "In the present "Wesleyan Memorial Church, in Savannah, Georgia, there is a Sunday-school room into which hundreds of children crowd for Sunday instruction. The original school was less in number, but it was unquestionably the first Sunday-school in the world. When taught by Wesley it numbered between sixty and seventy-five scholars, but from all accounts there were few, if any, Indian boys in his earlier classes. A very high authority, Sir Charles Keed, M. P., LL.D., of England, is clearly of the opinion that this Sunday-school was the first founded in the world, and that it antedates by a hulf century the * ? 1 A- .# T?.l x "n.:i secular instruction 01 i^uueri xvaiseo at Gloucester, England, as well as the first school in America upon Rakes' plan, which was established in the city of New York." Strange Clew to a Murder. A rich Russian banker had been discovered murdered in his house in St. Petersburg, says a -writer in the Green Bag. There was no clew, but in the room there was found a cigar mouth-piece containing part of a cigar of such an expensive kind that it was supposed the banker himself had been smoking it just before the crime had been committed. On close examination the mouthpiece was found to be worn away by the teeth of its owner, but the dead man's teeth did not fit the indentation. The servants were one by one examined, and it was then found that tee nouows 01 ine mouinpiece compared exactly to the formation of the front teeth of the cook, to whom no suspicion had been attached. He afterward confessed to the murder. 0>'? are You ? fp :r the question, madam, not counted by years.

The Ornamental Parlor Maid. It has been a growing custom for those young men of sufficient leisure to make afternoon calls on their lady friends and sip with them a cup of tea. The custom is bound to become immensely popular should the feature thus enunciated become universal. Here is something decidedly new: It is the ornamental parlor maid, a lady-like being, -whose waist belt must not measure over sixteen inches and who is consequently the embodiment of "style." She is permitted to wear a dark blue serge costume, with white j cuffs and collar, -while upon her per| fectly dressed hair perches a coquet| tisli white cap. Considering her cor! seted condition, no labor Bave that of handing cups of tea in the drawing I x.j i -D..1 ?1 ~~~~ room ib sxpecxeu ui uer. piease, think what a new element of danger this modish handmaiden may introduce into certain households! She is a prize figurehead of housework; the envied of all her peers; the admired of every visitor of the masculine gender; the criticised of every other woman who hasn't thought of setting up a sixteen-inch waist tea bearer. Well, well, perhaps we had better stick to the thin-legged footman or to the butler or even to a plebeian "girl" who doesn't go to a manicure after all!? Boston Herald. Lonnglng Gowns. Now,? perhaps, at the moment, in spite of the brown linen revelations in I undergarments and the augmenting splendors of the millinery displays, nothing is more refreshing to the already footsore shopper, her brain dazzled with money changing and close bargaining, than those chosen corners . of the big shops where tea gowns and breakfast negligees are displayed, i There is so much doing in this quar| ter just now for a revival of a fashion has sprung up unexpectedly, women have decided that it is both a pretty and appropriate thing to breakfast in artistic volantes, crown their heads with caps and rather make a function of the early toilet, that none but the family see. For this reason we find, in both elaborate and simple styles, the most charming breakfasting robes, which are something of a cross between the wrapper and the too elaborate tea gown. With each and everyone, though a cap is worn, whether the wearer is a debutante or the mother of a debutante.

" Resented an Act of Politeness. If she had been a plain-looking, middle-aged woman I don't think she would have resented it, but as she was ! an uncommonly handsome girl of ; twenty or thereabouts, and wore a i stunning tailor-made suit of dark i green, with a white vest, and a bunch i of white cock plumes in her hat, she 1 mistook an act of politeness for impertinence and "trunhim down," asChimmie Fadden would say, with great vioI lence. She was going from the ferry to the rnilxrnv nfntinn nrwl nnrrvinrr a flreas j suit case in one hand and a natty um! brella in the other. He looked like a I gentleman, arfd I am sure he was one, 1 if physiognomy is any key to characj ter, but Miss Disdain evidently misI took him for a "masher," and when, j as the boat reached the landing, he ! stepped up and asked permission to carry her dress-suit case, she save him j a look that was loaded with dynamite, I and said: "It is not at all necessary, sir." His cheeks colored crimson. He stepped back as if he had been stung, ! and lifting his hat again, begged her j pardon and tried to hide himself in the i throne:. I thought she micrht have thanked him, ami her neglect to do so showed that she was not a well-bred girl. Fifty years ago?yes, ten years ago, a woman would have expected sMch an attention, and a dozen men would have offered to cari^ her luggage between the railway train and the boat, but nowadays a gentleman dare not offer to do an act of politeness without being slapped in the face. I said something to that effect to Mrs. Worldwise, who also had witnessed the incident, when she flared up, as women will when their sex is criticised, and said: "Girls are compelled to protect themselves from unwelcome attention." "But if she bail been a plain girl she would have accepted his offer," I suggested. "If she had been a plain girl there would have been no offer to accept." mm, replied the fountain of wisdom.?William E. Curtis, in Chicago Record. The Millinery World. Crinoline is much used for shaping huts, and^it can be twisted, tucked, doubled and waved to suit any style of face. For large faces, hats should liav^ much ribbon and floral decoration, and if the ribbon be fancy and gauzy it should be put on in big bunches. In fact, a profusion of trimming, especially flowers, is to be observed in nearly all the season's millinery! The fashionable hats and bonnets, particularly those from Paris, have somewhat harsh color combinations, which only [a Parisian milliner can make effective. A hat of black straw may be ornamented with dark red and orange yellow, or with "fresh-leaf" green, violet and black. Canvas sailors are'now as much worn i?i ?1 U as Straw ones; due tney biiuuiu ue trimmed with ample bows of ribbon, and some fine flowers to cover the crown of the head when the hair is worn low. Many charming toques have a foundation of pleated net, gauze, chiffon or silk muslin, trimmed with medium-sized flowers and feathers, often of two or three colors,|or bird-ofparadise plumes. Toques are altvays becoming to young people, but for summer wear they are ruinous to the complexion. Wide, floppy hats give a rural air which can be affected at no other season. Leghorns are very enchanting on youthful heads; but the very coarse straws now in vogue are a godsend to the middle-aged woman, because their ruggedness coincides agreeably with even a wrinkle or two. t? A v XJimiieis ure uiuuu a|jpici;iaicu iui dressy wear. The latest caprice goes up to a point in the middle. Theater bonnets are made of gold plait, or spangled and embroidered lace, and are trimmed with quanties of violets. The hair is much -waved beneath them. The bonnet itself goes fiat on the hair in front, andabird-of-paradise aigrette, held by a jeweled buckle, stands up from the side, or from the centre of the crown. TVonderfnl Helen Keller. The marvel of the modern worlds Helen Keller, the blind girl of Alabama, whose wonderful progress in her studies for admission to Radcliffe College have attracted the the attention and aroused the admiration of the wise men of the world, has just celebrated her seventeenth birthday by betrinninst her preliminary examina tion. She -was seventeen years old last Sunday, and she stood her first examination Friday. Miss Keller has been studying in a preparatory school at Cambridge since last fall. Her instruction in Latin, German, French, history and geography has not been specially difficult since the great improvement in books for the blind. Her text books look like the big office books in use in counting rooms. The raised letters she can read as rapidly as if she could see, and the Brayl system, where a cipher consisting of dots and dashes takes the place of letters can be read even more rapidly, because the matter is more condensed. Books that have never been translated for the blind, Miss Keller still reads?not by sight as do the deaf mutes, nor by listening to others, as do the blind who can hear. She simply places her hand over the fingers of one who is reading by using the sign lftncnafffi for the deaf, and catches 0 o ' every word. In this way she has covered the whole range of her preparatory studies. For her arithmetic a special slate was invented, and she has become an accurate and ready worker in mathematics. Miss Keller has been provided with a planetarium, upon' which she can feel the positions of the heavenly bodies, and has gained a clear idea of their relations to each other. The whole world will watch the progress of this wonderful girl's examination for entrance to Radcliffe College, on which the hope of her life is staked. In studying these examinations the papers are read to' her and she writes the answers on a typewriter. Her intelligence is preternaturally keen, her enthusiasm indomitable and her ambition boundless. Many thousands who do not know her will pray that she may succeed.?Atlanta Journal. Shown on Dry Goo:1b Connters. Lace insertings in leaf designs. Cotton Japanese rugs for summer use.

The first child of English parents born in America was Virginia Dare, the daughter of Ananias Dare anc Eleanor White, members of one of th< bands of colonists sent out to the newly-discovered country by Sir Wal ter Raleigh. ^'This event took place on August 18, 1587, ana, appropriately euuugii, uut of the counties on Roanoke Islands it called Dare County. While Virginia was the first English subject born ir the then distant land, a number of col onists had settled in America two year* previously; but they returned to England in 1586. In order to commemorate this settlement, a memorial has just been erected on the site of old Fort Baleigh, on Boanoke Island. This memorial bearf an inscription stating that: "On this site, in August, 1585, the colonist* Bent from England by Sir Waltei d?i kui'lf flio fnrfc ^a11p(1 the New .LVUi01?-U Uumvvuv .v., _ Fort, in Virginia." It -was peculiarly appropriate thai the first child born in America should 'be christened in the name of the State which owed its own title to the desire to pay a courtly compliment to the Virgin Queen of England. Growing Crystals. A method of growing crystals oi unusual lustre and transparency has been described to the French Academj by P. de Wateville. The small crystal is mounted in such a manner thai I it can be continuously rotated several times in a second while growing in the saturated solution. Alum crystals grown in this way at fifty degrees successively lose their dodecahedron and cube faces, and at last have only those of the octahedron. Especially line results were obtained with potassium and ammonia alums, copper sulphate and sodium chlorate. Peculiar Slab of Stone. A peculiar slab of stone was found in a coal mine at "Webster City, Iowa, 130 feet below the surface. It is about two feet long by one foot wide and four inches thick.
