TRAVELING IN A FOG. *N OLD BUS DRIVER TELLS GOME OF HIS EXPERIENCES. •rivets In London Streets Havo to Be ▼•ry Careful During ths Frequent BeitM of Foga—Od'd Accidents That Occur —the VMne or Street Lights. The fog came down on London last tvnok, and in early zriorning the fog sig nals wore exploding on the suburban tines. Talking of the fogs, an old bus Jtire. had an interesting chat with me Ihe other morning on my way from fcTamrnorsrmth. "these' Ore fogs is dreadful," ho said v Otm day I'm thinJrin of was a bad nn; I couldn't get tho 'osses to go at all, so L hrrned back at Piccadilly. But that leesnt pay; for if the company don't think—and they mostly don't think —it's thick enough to stop running the buses Ind you do stop without any official tell- Br you, they'll make you pay for the If of tho journey that you missed. I .ad to pay for that half journey from Piccadilly." "Hare you ever got on the wrong road through tho fog?" I asked. "Oh, yes; lots of time 3. I've often rnmed op a wfong street, but I'vo gen trally found my way again. But one time—about thro* years ago—l got quite lost. It was going from Hammersmith to Liverpool street. You could nave cut the fog, it was so thick. Wo passed Kensington and Knightsbridge all rig! .1 and then I got somewhero where 1 didti t know; my 'mate' behind looked about a bit, but he couldn't make out whero v.-c was, so we wont and asked a p'licomnn. He wae on point duty and told us we was in the park somewhere, but lie didn't know where. But I've made plenty of mistakes like that. Why, the first ran this morning I nearly went the wrong way. "New, look here," ho said, pointing to • street lamp that was glimmering quite close at hand, "th ose are the things that puzzle you. You think that's on the pavement and go sharp off to the right to miss it and yon find yonrself at the wrong side of the road with traffic on all tides of you and a policeman swearing and waiting to take yOur number for causing an obstruction. That's in the middle of tho road; it isn't on tho pave ment at all. I've often wished that big lamp at the corner of Hyde park far enough; it always balks mo." "Are there-".many accidents in foggy weather?" "I don't think thero are moro than in clear weather, for every one drives care ful—they have to do or they'd soon havo a smash. Sometimes, you know, a cab by will pull up sharp and your "pole" Will go through the back of his 'ker ridgo;' bit then them things always hap pens. The 'osses, top, gets frightened whon it gets eitrt thick, and they'll 'jib;' but they're often not so bad :is some of the passengers, who nudge you and pull yon and tell you to "please bo careful.' The fog doesn't hurt the 'osses much; it might give 'em a cold, but it's ns that suffers most. When there's a frost and a fog together it's awful. "I've often had my 'osses led. but we don't like any ono to touch our animals' haaAa Tt'» ti 11 .— m:.. men are always at that game, because they know we don't like it. But it's very bad when they fall down in a fog, for no one can see yon and it's quite likely that another bns will come sailing along right onto yon, but in all my experience I've only seen ono 'oss down in a fog, and he was shot. I'd sooner drive anywhere on ■Vthick night than np to Hatnmorsmith or Bayswater. You have tho park all along one sidoof the road, and you know how dark it is. I think Bayswater is the worst of the two. I onco drove a three 'oss metropolitan bus into the middle of a row of hansoms, but it's surprising what a little damage is sometimes done In a collision." "But how do you manage to find your way?" "Why, we grope," was the significant answer. "I think the best way is to got the left band wheal of your bus against the curb and 'let her grind.' You won't know what that is. Well, I mean keep ing alongside the pavement. Never mind tho wheels; they'll be all right. On some routes men go about with lan terns to guide you, but that's too slow work. I once went a journey when the conductor took cue of the lamps in bis band and ran along on the pavement to abow me bow fur I was off the curb, but all men haven't the same disposition, and I've had a conductor who wouldn't move oft tbe step to tell me which side of the road I was. Why, sometimes I can't see tbe whip I have in my hand, it's so thick. Some buses have bells, but I don't; they don't show you where you are—that's what you want to know. The fag's only good to tbe, 'pirates:' peo ple can't see which bus they're getting into, and a good many grutnblo when asked to pay tbe extra fare. But it doesn't do them very much good, for some folk aro frightened to ride in a fog —tbey think it's safer to walk." "Thank you, sir. Good morning."~ Pall Mall Budget. Bobbery In Northern China.

IVORY CARVING IN AMERICA. flow the Art Has Been Introduced —Its Ancient Origin. [Special Correspondence.] New Yopk, Jan. a.—Six years ago ivory carving aa a domestic art wis unknown in the United States. All our spec'.:-tens came from China or Jnpan, or were Ugh priced antiques from Europe. Tod we have an American citizen with Stlfui ent genius to turn out a statuette of Ivoi y tot which Q. W. Vanderbilt has paid $5,000. F. B. KALDENIIEP.C. Ivory carving is a very old art, dattng credibly back to the carved ivory coffins oi the Chaldeans, while tho ivory throne of Bclomon, tha wise king, is described at length in the first book of Kings, and the beautiful carvings of the Ethiopians for Sesostris in tho form ot tribute, and tho wonderful work of the Assyrians and Egyptians arc fully attested by writers of those days, and specimens may be seen in the Central park and other museums. The Chinese worked in ivory from their earliest records, and the Japanese, Asiatic Indians and Etruscans, all left existing traces and specimens of a vary early data The llncst modern collections are in tho Green vaults at Dresden und the British museum. The Vatican at Rome has some very handsome specimens, whence came the very hand some priest's memorandum book now owned by Miss Caldwell, of this city, the work of which dates back to the period of Coriolanus, anil which waa presented to her by the pops three years ago. The method of working and producing a specimen is too full of detail to be de scribed at length, but it is worthy of note that, whore the carver in stone has men to rough out the crude block, leaving him only tho finishing details, the carver in ivory docs everything from first to lost with his own hands. The artist introducing ivory carving to prominence m this country is Fritz K. Kaldenberg, of this city. The statuette he aold to ti. W. Vanderbilt is a bust of Rem brandt, twelve' inches high and six in diameter. He has also executed a Venus of Milo for W. 11. Rockefeller, price 81,500, and is now working on a bust of Rosalind, having j*st finished a statuette of Mignon, the beautiful gypsy. Mr. Kaldenberg is an enthusiast in his art and says that close observation shows him that It will take a clever American carver five months to completo a work worth 55,000. A Japanese workman would be two years and it Chinese artist Beven years, end, most important of all, thu Amer loaik .-'-..,<.— .j.«V.tuf ~1 .rUl.'. ing a design, while the other two nations would only be able to copy an existing etatuo lino from line. The strength of these artists in ivory is purely mechanical, plod ding along in a mathematical manner which would drive a high strung, nervous, artistic American workman to the vergo of insanity. Tusks vary greatly in size, reaching in aomo cases ten feet in length and weighing 800 pounds each. Ivory is now worth tltraa to six dollars per pound, but will speedily become cheaper owing to the opening up of the interior of Africa and tho greater fa cilities tor transport. W. P. PoSD. Fishing Through the Ics. [Special Correspondence.] MIDDLKTOT.'H, Jan. 2.—With the freez ing of the lakes and streams in the Con necticut vtxltyr opens a profitable season for a large nHJober of men who make a business of flailing through the ice every winter. They catena pickerel and perch, and for them reosive frbu eight to ten cents a pound in the New York market. The fisherman cuts from 100 to 200 circu lar holes in the ice about twenty-live feet apart and a short distancs from the shore. Tho "gears" with which tho fish are caught consist cf a strip of flat board four inches wide and two feet long. Length wise in this board a slot is cut in which on a wiro axlo is hung an iron rod, to ono end of which is attached tbe fishing line. On the opposite end of the rod is a ball »f lead that plays bock and forth on tho red. On this end of the rod is a strip of red or white cloth. The hook is baited with a live minnow. The bOUd, with the rod and line, Is set up over the hoi* at nn angle of about 45 dens. To bold it in thia position tbe lower end of it is thrust into a hole cut in t he ice. Tlio Una is dropped through tbe circular hole, nnd tho fun begins. When :i fish take* tho bait and attempts to get away with it, the rod, to which the lino is attached, tips up, end tho lead ball slides down pastthe center nnd stops at tho axle holding it up, The rag floats ia the air, aiid, the Übherinau can see it at a distance of half a milo. By this signal he knows that there is n fif.h on tbo hook, mid he hurries to the line and hinds the game. The fishermen usually wear skates, and the attendance upon a string of lines, though it. may be a mile long, is comparatively an easy matter. It is not an uncommon occurrenco for n fisherman to in this way catch 300 pounds of fish in six ot ei#ht hours, and it is a poor market that doesn't net him ii£teen dollars for such v day's work. Thero Is another way that these men have of catching fish that is easier, quicker and usually more profitable. When tho leo is thin and transparent they go to that part of the lake or river where the water is shal low. There are usually threo or four men In tho party. Thoy carry heavy axes, and spreading out pound on the ice and walk slowly toward the shore. The noise thus croateddrlves the suckers Into tho shallow water, Where they lie close to the bottom. When the fish have been "rounded up" the rnerrSmrry over the ice, striking heavy blows with their axes. The concussion has tho effect of stunning the fish, and tbey rise to tho ice. Holes are out and the fish taken out. When sockerß are plenty it is no trick at all to take 500 pounds a day in this manner, and they sell readily at from four to six eenta a pound. H. C.

Hance, 177 North Spring. Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria^ LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 13, 1893. GIRLS AND HIGHWAYMEN. How the Yonne Women of Chicago Act In the Presence of Bobbers. The small girl is in hard luck just now. Every place sho turns somebody is ready to hurl somo horrible tale about robbers and masked highwaymen at her. It doesn't mako her feel very happy either. She runs over to a neighbor's houae for the one purposo of getting away from Brother Ned and tua dreadful stories, but her little heart droppoth down to the solos of her shoes whon she gets there, for the whole .family, with staring ryes and wide open mouths, are listen ing to the slow and sonorous voice of their venerable grandparent. He is right In tho middloof a newspaper article deal ing with the latest suburban murderer, whoso chief business in life appears to bs gathering np loose change from passing pedestrians. It is simply awful, and thero is scarcely a girl in this beautiful city of Lake Mich igan breezes that hasn't pictured herself as being robbed. One young woman says that during the robbing process she would be very calm —oh, so calm, just like a beauti ful morning in June. If a bold man should march np and demand her pock etbook tho brave maiden would romark with all the nonchalance imaginable, "Why, certainly, my good fellow, you are welcome to it, I'm sure." Then she would dive into tho voluminous depths of her jacket pocket and haul out a well worn wallet, carried for that especial purpose. No doubt this well planned sohemo would work beautifully, but when the girl had cause to display her ingenious Idea she forgot all about tho calm part, and just yelled, "llamma! M-a-a M-a-a-a!" and raced off. That wasn't a bad plan at all. Tho extensive tost of that girl's lung power filled tho highway man's heart with fear and trembling, and the probabilities are that he has re formed and started into a safer occupa tion. There is another girl who is celebrated for her honesty, and the most casual al lusion to a robber makes her hair stand on end. Her plan is to deliver all valu ables with as littlo loss of time as is pos sible and accompany the deal with trem bling hands and chattering teeth. Why tho trembling hands and chattering teeth are essontial to tho transfer ol property sho fails to explain. When a horrid old highwayman yells, "Your money or your life!" at her she'll just say: "Here's my purse; thero's $1.17 In it. Here's my watch. I haven't any rings—left theni on the washstand at homo. That's all I've got. (Jo awayl Go away!" And if ho still lingers, in the hopo of getting more plunder, sho would goream for a liolioeman, and of course the brae ooated officer would land on the sceno at. jpee and take the of fender off to jaU. She t&ight yell, "Po lice!" in tho first place, but it would up set her plans, and that wouldn't do at all. Another girl declared that she would depend on running to save her riches, but ono evening as the shadows were stealing softly down upon the busy world and tho fleet footed young woman was trotting along, peeping behind trees and into gloomy doorways, a burly col ored gentleman suddenly uppeared ahead of her. _ Somoiiow.-Or ijihnr slin. didn't think about running just then, and as Eho was about to pass her new brunette neighbor grabbed hold of ono Of her arms with all the assurance of a street car con ductor and quietly if not elegantly re marked, "Sco here, honey, I want yer inun; see?" She saw, tightened her hold on that littlo leather pttrso and tried to yell. The yell failed to materialize and amounted to nothing moro than a littlo feeble "O-o-oh!" that wouldn't really awaken a drowsy sparrow. The maid and the villain became in volved in a beautiful melodramatic scrap, and, strange to relate, the man got the worst of it. His fair opponent succeeded in jabbing about two inches of hatpin into ono of his arms, which made his colored highness howl and loosen his grasp. Then tho girl escaped and ran for dear life, Sho had to buy another hatpin, to be sure, but she still has hfft pockctbook, and is now posing as ono of tp» bravest girls on record. Major McClanghry might make a police woman out ef her. — Chicago News- Record. - - #>i |_____5 ■ ____Si 3 CJnres Consumption, Coughs, Oronp, Soro Threat. Sold by all Druggists on a Guarantee.
