Things Quaint and Curious
Gathered Here and There
18 A WONDERFUL WHITTLEB.
Qeorgi A. Jones of Philadelphia Chal
lenges the World.
Gcorgo A. Jones of Philadelphia
challenged tho world to produce his
squal as a whlttlor. The challenge
brought a reply from D. F. Clay of
Fernwood, who offcrod In evldonco a
wonderful dlsplny of his work.
Mr. Clay Is 7G years old and a ma
chinist by trade. In tho Illustrations
given hero nro shown two varieties of
chains, each of which ho cut out of
one piece of wood.
Tho fivo-slded link, or anchor chain,
shown Is of cedar. Tho Idea was
taken by Mr. Clay from a watch chain.
Another soctlon of this chain Is tho
eight-link production referred to abovo,
with a fancy bit forming a pentagon,
the hollowedout lnsldo containing a
double loop knot mado of tho Btlck's
core, extending laterally when pulled.
Tho pentagon, with flvo sides open,
revolve on the core.
A chain made of links, caok con
taining six links, Is of tho twist va
riety and lays flat. Mr. Clay has mado
many articles besides chains, such as
tweezers, plnchors nnd furniture sots,
hut ho has mado a specialty of chains
and believes that In that line ho
stands foremost.
INFLUENCE OF THE OCEAN.
The Power of the Mystic Sea Afreets
All Men.
Throughout all ages, in every clime,
to peoplo of every raco. the forces of
old ocean havo ever appealed with
Irresistible power. Us vast area, Its
solemn grandeur in repose, Its sub
lime spoctaclo when lashed to fury
by tho wind, Its mystic dopths whero
lie tho fleshless human victims of Its
mighty wrath, and whence Issue
strnngo forms and feorsomo noises
all aro potent In their awe-inspiring
effect on tho beholder. Under Its
magic spell ordinary mortals stand in
' 2 r..,.i-
The Grey Man's Path,
respectful Bllenco, for lnck of power
to express their thoughts, which may
bo nono tho less profound becnuso of
Uio lnnblllty to glvo them verbal ut
teranco; but poots with tho'lr meed
of skill havo over tried with well
termed phrnso to tell us of old Nop
tune's moods his smiles and frownt
and vagaries. Even nmong tho com
mon llshor-folk this great Influenco Is
notlccablo In Us effect upon their su
perstitions, The accompanying plcturo Is of a
sccno In the coast "rocks at Falrheatl,
near Ballycastlc. In Ireland. Fhlr
I.clth, or Tho Cray Man's Path, Is a
fissure In tho precipice, and viewed
either from land or sea Ib never to bo
forgotten. It seems as though eoiuo
supernatural powur had caused tho
fearful chnsm that divides the rocky
promontory so Hint it might visit or
summon tho spirits of the deep with
out treading n lond nindo by mortal
hands. In Its nanow part tho passage
Is spanned by part of a large basalt
pillar, suggesting u gigantic bridge.
Farther on tho passago widens, Its
dnrk Bides towor to a greater height,
giving a moro wild and scmbor mag
nlflcenco to tho scene, and nt longth
tho face of tho mighty promontory Is
reached, whero tho northern ocean
rolls It' threatening billows.
Tho Influence of tho -nighty forces
of old ocean Is notice jdc In all tho
beliefs regarding tho spirit world In
dulged In by theso llshor-folk who
think thut tho "Orey Man" of tho
North tea stalks forth silently and
alono up his appropriate path to wit
ness some mighty convulsions of nature.
NEW SEAL IS APPROVED.
Appropriate Device For Department of
Commerce and Labor.
President Itoosovclt and Secretary
Cortclyou havo appiovod the design
for a seal of offlco for tho now depart
ment of commerco and labor submitted
The Department Seal,
by Tiffany & Co., nnd orders havo been
given to cut tho die.
This is said 'to bo tho first devlco
adopted for any of tho government de
partments which is nbsolutoly correct
In all heraldic details, and nt tho samo
tlmo having full significance In tho
varlod duties and purposes of tho de
partment. Tho ship Is adopted as tho
symbol of commerce, and tho anvil
nnd hammer typify Industry nnd labor.
Tho crest is tho eaglo of tho American
arms and denotes tho national scopo
of the department.
"The Cruel Plant."
Our picture illustrates a curious
Canadian climber upon which there
has been bestowed the name of tho
"Cruel Plant," because of tho way In
which It treats certain buttcrflios. It
is an autumnal bloomer, and tho In
sects, attracted by Its perfume, hover
round nnd push their probosces into
its corolla, on honey-slpplng intent.
Hut the act Is fatal, for tho poor flics
get gripped tightly by a pair of re
markable vegctablo plncors In tho
heart of tho flower, and held until
death terminates tho Btrugglo.
Mouse Cause of Train Wreck.
A mouso recently wrecked a train.
It was walking along a rail, looking
at the moon one evening, whon an owl
saw It. Tho mouso Immediately gave
chase, and tho mouse retreated grace
fully Into tho Jaws of a switch. Tho
owl got wedged In tho Jaws of tho
switch and prevented Its being closed,
so that n freight trnln was derailed.
Unfortunately, tho papers failed to
say whethor or not tho mouso escaped.
PONDEROUS WEAPONS OF OLD.
Such Were Those Used by Fierce 13th
Century Fighters.
In tho old feudal days In England
strength nnd skill counted for every
thing in tho constant struggles for su
premacy. In thoso strenuous times
tho human being who was physically
weak, or who counted on a weapon
In any sense Inferior to others for his
defense, was Indeed most unfortunnU.
Tho student of contemporaneous his
tory can scarcely repress a shudder
of horror, especially If ho bo at all
Imaginative, whon reading an nccount
of a battlo fought In that bloody ago.
Thoso florco hand-to-hand conflicts
whon skulls were split with masstvo
battlo ax, or the no less deadly clay
more, and men frantically clutched at
each other's throats, each seeking to
first deliver the final dagger thrust
wero among tho most terrible on rec
ord; nnd when wo reflect that in near
ly every instance they wero Incited
by causes of a most trivial nature, we
The Seaton Sword. ;
should bo thankful that ours 4s a mora
enlightened age.
Tho weapon shown In our picture
known ns the Seaton sword is a re
markably fine and unusually large
specimen of tho old Scottish two
handed variety which Is a valuod
heirloom of tho Seatons of Carlston.
The blade Is forty-nine Inches in
longth; tho total length of the weapon
is flvo feet nine Inches, and it wolis
soven nnd one-half pounds.
Calmly reasoning from this charac
teristic heirloom wo detect in it just
such hardy, skllless, overbearing
power a3 history Informs ub was the
character of tho medieval baron be
foro the rlso of tho burgher cIbsb re
adjusted tho social balance.
Pine Tree Bread.
Pino tree bread Is being eaten by
Flnlanders, and Is almost tho only food
that can be obtained by them just
now. It Is made of the bark of pine
trees, and looks like brown sandstone.
It Is almost as hard as stouc, and no
ono would suspect that It could bo
eaten. Its only redeeming feature Is
that It lasts for years In as "palatablo"
a condition as when fresh.
Cost of Army and Navy.
Tho pay of tho army Is $37,000,000 a
year; tho quartermaster's department
uses $32,000,000; guns cost $11,000,
000; the expenditures on rivers, har
bors and forts, $10,000,000; tho pay of
the navy Is $15,000,000; tha cost of
now vcssols $20,000,000.
TATTOO MARKS SERVE TO IDENTIFY ANARCHIST8.
England at tho present tlmo Is al
most tho only country of Europe whero
anarchists aro allowed to consplro at,
case. Franco, on tho other hand, keeps
a numerous secrot police corps, tho
only duty of which 1b to closely watch
tho compagnons," particularly thoso
who aro foreigners.

chists, particularly those of Italian
nationality. Tattoo marks aro very
