SEAT LOST BY TELEGRAPH.
Why Representative Wallace Wa? Not
Returned to Ccngr?as.
"After Moree had invented the
telegraph," ?aid General Lew Wal
lace when he told the story, "he
wanted congress to appropriate $30,
OOO to build an experimental line
?rom Washington to Baltimore. The
matter created a great deal of dls?
suasion. Morse waa sneered at and
jeered at, and many thought him in
sane, ify father was a member of
congress at that time, and lie v/os
one pf the committee to which the
question of the appropriation waa
xeferired
"Vfbei the committee met, my
iathcr. w|as watching the experiment
?0$ telegraphing from the house to
the senate. Wires been stretched
and tho. inventors .were operating
the instrumente. My father saw'
them work. He sent messages and
received replies.. Then he went to
l?a committee i-Dom and found the
committee m session. They had just
Troted on the appropriation, and
their vote was a tic. Ho cast his
Tote in ita favor, and this caused
the appropriation to go through.
TThe result waa the first telegraph
3ine in the world.
"Strange to Bay, that vote lost I
any father his seat in congress," con- j
tinued General Wallace. ( "Thirty '
thousand dollars was then a big
sum, and this vote became one cf
the issues Of tho next congressional
.campaign. Father was charged with
wasting the people's money, and bia
opponent ridiculed him on the
?tump by referring to his 'magn?t
ico, elecfcrlso, telegraphic appropria
tion which no one could explain.*
He even asked father to explain it,
3>ut at that time he could not do so,
??though he said it would bo of
.?great benefit to the country. The
people thought differently, and the
aresult was his defeat."-??arper'8.
Pascal.
Pascal, who Disraeli called^ the
rgreatest of Frenchmen, from birth .
?ill death suffered from nervous ?
troubles. At. one year of age he fell
into a languor, during which he
?could not see water without mani
festing great outbursts of passion,
cand, still more peculiar, he cov-ld
not bear to see his, father and moth
er near each othe? In 1637 he had
paralysis from his waist down, - so
that he could not walk without
.crutches. This condition continued,
three months. During his last hours
fee was taken with terrible convul
sions, in which ho died. The autop
sy showed peculiarities. His crani
um appeared to have no suture un
less perhaps the lambdoirT or sagit-1
tal. A large quantity of tho brain ;
substance was very much condensed.
Opposite the ventricles there were
two impressions as of a finger in
ivai. These cavities were full of
dotted and decayed blood, and there

.Fish fighting ._ia ? most popular
s?brt in Siam: The two fish*, train
<ea irora the age of six months to
-fight, are placed in a large glass bot
tle. It is most curious to note each
fish's attitude- 'when it becomes
svsrare o? ib adversary's presence in
the bottle. Swelling with, rage and
apri^ th?^ sail arovmd the . narrow
space, pretending not to notice each
other, nntil suddenly one fish makes j
s savage dart at its unwelcome com- j
panion, biting, its fins and body J.
tThe fight continues until the referee
sees that tho. issue ia no longer in
.doubt, when the contest is stopped.

THE HIPPOPOTAMUS.
Uncouth Antic? of Yhla Unwieldy Ani
mal In African Watara.
"In the channels which traverse
the marshes of certain districts in
central Africa," writes a traveler,
"hippopotami in incredible numbers
are met with-sometimes ir? nerds ol
sixty and seventh. Wherever the j
channel widens out into., a reedy
lake rows of grotesque looking hca?L
with-ears erect appear above the
water surface, their owners studying
the extraordinary apparition pro
duced by the steamer. Oa approach
ing the spot these heads disappear,
one after the other, under water,
and a series cf waves and large rip
ples indicate the passage cf the mon
ster forms below the surface. M ter
a few minutes' time the same huge
heads reappear, generally down
stream of the boat. They have an
other, stare and again disappear, with
a snort end the expulsion of a small
volume of water from the nostrils.
Not infrequently a severe bump ia
felt ir* the steamer, making the
whole hull quiver, as the back of a
hippopotamus seeking , to escape has
touched it.
"If the water should happen to be
shallow, the attempts of these ani
mals to hide themselves ere ludic
rous, as their movements are clumsy
and their anger and fear are. evident.
In such cases their heads and the
fore parts of their bodies are under
. water, and nothing is seen but the
huga pink hind quarters, struggling,
kicking and chtirning np the water
? in the e?ort to get out of s ig ht. Al
though their uncouth antics may be
safely watched from a steamer, it is
ta very different matter if the ob
server is in a canoe or a, small boat.
Then Liu position is one of consider

good chance of being upset.

i The "Plimsoll Mark."
Many a person has looked at a
British ship lying in low water and
wondered what was meant by a cir
cular mark with a straight line run
ning through it which is to be seen
?On; the side of thevessel. ; This' is
known ss tho "riimBofl mark/'
Samuel Plimsoll, the friend pf sea
faring men, devoted the beat years
of his life to furthering the interests
of sailors. He noticed that over
loaded and unseaworthy vessels, were
often sent on voyages, with great
danger to human life. He tried tc
induce the British parliament to
alter matters; but, failing to do so,
he himself entered the house ol
commons in 1SG8 and succeeded in
getting the merchant shipping act
passed. . OBy this act the board o?
trade was ;i?mj>ower?d to detain; any
vessel deemed unsafe. Finally ?wn
ens were ordered to have a load: wa

THE WORST rtiOSQUITOES.
Maubi'A, Burma, Hes the Bissett and
Moat Virulent Known.
Unsurpassed in all the world in
number, size and virulent activity
are the mosquitoes of Maubin, a
town of Burma) according to V. C.
Sec O'Connor. Ho says: "One's
first y mt to Maubin in th? mosquito
seasoa is an nrpc-rience, and to see
them under tho flare of da electric
searchlight come over the ship's side
in hordes and occupy like an irre
sistible army every fraction of ita
surface, to see them hanging in fes-,
toons from the white canvas awn*
' ir.gs, the mosquito nets, the table
linen and the punka flops and from
every object on which they can se-v
cure a footing, is io have lived in
deed? How to continue to live after
the novelty of thc spectacle has worn
off is the definite problem that occu
pies every ok's ininti in Maubin. J.t
is achieved in the main by intrench
ing oneself within'an iron fortress
of line mesh. In some houses there
?6 a special rom, a kind of inner
citadel and last refuge, which is
wholly of iron gauze, and within it
the ' jaster of the house ?its like a
vanquished lien Ln o cage.
"To enter this fortress in advance
of the enemy calls for the exercise
of agility of a high order. ?The doors
have swing backs and are made to
close the instant that they are re
leased. Outside them the- light cav
alry of the enemy hover in clouds.
The man within, this Englishman
in his strange castle, observes your
approach with furtive and anxious
eyes, arid, if you be a newcomer he
begs of. you to be careful in entering.
Immediately you enter he falls with
an astonishing onslaught upon sueh
of the enemy as have come in on
your back, in . your hair, in tho
creases of your clothes and in an au
rora of cloud about your brows.
"At one end of ine chief magis
trate's .house there used to be, when
I was last at Maubin, a long room
thus defended, in which he 6at daily
to dispense justice, and.great activi
ty-in entering-was expected of the
prisoner under trial, the assembled
witnesses and the counsel employed
in each case. Many a sentence, it is
whispered, has fallen with enhanced
severit} from judicial lips, many a
prisoner has come away with a light
er punishment as' the consequence
of his manner of entering the court."

A Her* Pisr.t.
A year or two ago there were
ong tiie boarders at a mountain
summer hotel a celebrated botanist
and a certain pretentious rich wo
man,; who liked to make it appear
to the guests that she was very well
informed on all subjects. The rich
woman affected to take an interest
in the researches of the botanist
among the flora of the mountains.
"I suppose, Mr. Caylix/' said the
ladyy,"yon And almost all the moun
tain flowers around her :P*
.T have , found a' great many,
ma'am/' said the botanist.
"Well, there's one kind of flower
that I've read a great deal of as b?

ways wanted to see it. Perhaps you
could pick me some/'
