“BURNING STICKS"

_—-

's was on the island of Cuba, in the autumn of 1492, that the use of tobacco was learned by Europeans. Columbus makes the first mention of the weed in his diary under date of Oct. 15. When he and his men landed on Cuban shores, the kindly natives, who mistook them for messengers from heaven, brought them numerous offerings. Among these, as stated by the admiral in his diary, were some ‘‘dry leaves, which must be something much prized by them (the natives), for they had already brought me some in San Salvador asa present.’’

Little heed was paid to these leaves in the beginning by the Spaniards. They were in search of gold and saw no pos- sibility of converting miserable weeds into that precious commodity. In the course of time they began to notice that as the natives went to and from their villages and the shore smoke escaped from their mouths, ‘‘in a truly diabol- ical manner.’’ Soon they discovered that these unclad children of the wilds carried in their hands a ‘‘burning stick,’’ which every now and then they would put into their mouths and blow out a cloud of smoke. This had a most heathenish look, as it is recorded, to the Spaniards, and they inquired, as well as they could by signs, into the custom.

They learned that the burning sticks were composed of the dried leaves so treasured by the natives, and that the custom of smoking the fragrant weed was supposed to lessen fatigue on long journeys. They tried it for themselves and found this actually to be the case. On many a troublesome jaunt thereafter they were refreshed as the pleasant per- fume curled upward from their own **burning sticks.’’—Detroit Journal.

SPECULATING ON SHIPS

When a ship is overdue, an opportu- nity is sometimes afforded for a gamble at Lloyds. It can be readily understood that underwriters who are interested in the ‘‘overdues’’ are only too willing to get rid of the risk by paying a premium on the insured rate to those who are willing, on their terms to relieve them of their responsibilities. The premium varies with the chances of the vessel turning up; the smaller the chances the higher the premium and vice versa.

The rates paying on ‘‘overdues’’ serve as accurate barometers of the probabili- ties or otherwise of the ship ever being heard of again. These underwriters who speculate on ‘‘overdues’’ are generally known by the significant name of ‘‘doc- tors.’’ The insurance on an ‘‘overdue’’ may pass through many channels before the ship is, on the one hand, ‘‘posted’’ at Lloyds as ‘‘missing,’’ or, on the other hand, she arrives in safety.

A ship is never ‘‘posted’’ until the committee is thoroughly satisfied that her case is hopeless, and until the own- er is of the same opinion. Before ‘‘post- ing’’ a notice is put up for a week in- viting any information concerning the vessel. If this elicits no news, the com- mittee at its next meeting votes the ship as ‘‘missing,’’ and a notice is posted ac- cordingly. The loss is then settled and paid for. It may be incidentally re- marked that ‘‘posting’’ at Lloyds con- stitutes a legal death certificate for any one on board the missing ships. —CGood Words.

Smallest and Oddest Republics.

Goust is the smallest republic as to area, but Tavolara is the smallest re- public as to population. Goust is only one mile in area. It is located on the flat top of a mountain in the Pyrenees, between France and Spain, and is recog- nized by both of those countries. It is governed by a president and a council of 12. It was established in 1648 and has 130 inhabitants. The president is tax collector, assessor and judge. Goust has no church, clergyman or cemetery. The people worship in a church outside of their own territory, and the dead bodies are slid down to a cemetery in the val- ley below. In that valley all the bap- tisms and marriages are performed. Tavolara is 12 miles northeast of Sar- dinia. It is an island five miles long by a half mile wide. Its total population consists of 55 men, women and chil- dren. The women go te the polls with the men and elect every year a presi- dent and council of six, ali serving without pay. The inhabitants support themselves by fishing and raising fruit and vegetables. The republic has no army and no- navy.—Cinucinnati En- guirer.

MARKET QUOTATIONS ON SCALPS

The market price of ‘‘scalps,’’ as agreed upon between the early French colonists of Louisiana and the Indians, with whom they bargained to fight out their battles with hostile Indians for them, varied with circumstances. At the time the French were at war with the Alibamons a ‘‘scalp’’ of one of the jast named, when brought to them, was paid for at the rate of a gun, five pounds of musket balls and as much powder. ‘On the 14th of March’’ (1704), writes De La Harpe, ‘‘a party of 20 Chicachos (Chicka:e ws) brought in four Alibamon scalps. They were given for each scalp a gun, five pounds of balls and as much of powder, according to the contract made with them.’’—New Orleans Pica- yune.

Sawed With Cables.

In the French quarries of St. Triphon stone is sawed with steel wire cables moistened with wet sand and passing in an endless rope over a series of pul- leys. The wire, which runs from 1,000 to 1,200 feet per minute, is charged as it enters the cut with a jet of water and siliceous sand, which forms the cutting material. A running cable of 500 feet can make a cut 100 feet long.
