his conversation a turn that natouishes you.
He speaks to you of France in a way which
shows you that he is conversant with all that
is going on there. The sayings and doings of
Gen. "Blilangere" are familiar to him. He
knows the names of the chief memberS'of the
French ministry. He is interested in M.
. Pasteur‘s researches; he has read a review
and an account of M. Ernest Rem’s'last
book and of if Victorian Sudan’s latest
play He has judicious remarks to make
upon literature. He knows his Shakespeare,
as not one Frenchman of his clan knows Cor-
neillo, Racine; Moliere,’or Victor Hugo. You
discover that he is” well read. this man who
says i come for i came, you was, you didn't

give you information about his country. as
useful as it is exact.
This some American talks theology. He
discusses the Bible. He reads the writings of
Col. lngeisoll, refuting that gentleman’s ideas
or accepting his conclusions.
in a word, you thought you were in the
company of an ignorant bore of a bagman,
and you have had one or two hours' talk with
an intelligent and interesting man.
CHAPTER XXXI.
That which strikes the European most in
his first walk through New York streets is
the absence of stupid faces. All are not
handsome. but. all are intelligent looking and
full of life. The next thing that strikes him
is the well grown lock ofthe people. Few or
no deformities Roundhouse one half: or
huncllhacked person out'o'f' the ten thousand
he inhy meet. With the exception of the old
people, few have defective sight. Apart,
from tbe'complexion, which is pale. every-
thing seems to indicate an active, strong,
healthy people. The constant, crossing of
races must daily tend to fibrmoflng of
the Americans, physically”!!! l’ng'llectually.

impression grows upon you, and soon takes
,the form of a conviction. .
{The Americans do not walk much. It; is
not that they are indolent. Far from it. It
is because their legs will ”not carry them fast
enough. "

These- same face! arepale, and you see
many prematurely grayheads. The wantqf
open air exercise, lube drynes of the atmos-
phere, the suffocating heat of the rooms, the
vitiatied air in the houses, which seem tohnve
windows only for the purpose of letting in a
little light. easily explain this double phe-
nomenon.
, The women of every country are unani‘
mous in pronouncing the American men
handsome. and as there are few men who do
not think the American women lovely, there
can bobut one opinion on the subject: the
American‘raoe is-n good lookingrace. But
that which makes the charm of the men’s
faces is not regularity of feature; it is, as l
have already said, the intelligence written on
them. the wonderful activity which animus
them.
This activity you find in all stations of life.
in the financial world; the literary world, the
"‘wbrld'of‘politics. everywhere. It is a fever-
“with-which the whole nation is smitten.

narrow ideas, eccentricity and madness are
but one and the same thing.
Let ustake a little look at Americans at
home, and see if I was wrong in calling
American life pure phantasmagoria.
We will begin by the private houses.
- In a well appointed house you will find in n

the baker, tho grocer, and all the lady’s
tradospeople.
There is a. great effort being made now in
New York, Chicago and other towns to find
out a plan to accelerate the service in restau-
rants and do awaywith waiters. It is very
simple, and the Americans will not be bullied
for such a mall matter.
This is how the thing is to be done:
The restaurant is provided with small
numbered tables. Each table is in direct
cominunication with the kitchen by means of
rails. Closeathandaroucertain uumberof

Not only is work respectable In America,

burden to the state, may be will at auction

will tell you, as the most simple thing in the
world, that by acting thus they economize
the cost of a police force. Rather primitive
this reason, it must be admitted; but, in now-
societies, idleness is a crime, and the bees

cans are so bright and lively. Man, every-
where, is influenced by the climate in which
he lives.
Stimulants are not needed, water suffices,
and few Americans drink anything but water
at meal time on ordinary occasions. Alco-
holic drinks are almost forbidden by the cli-
mate. A bottle of wine goes to the head
sooner in America than half a dozen would
in England or the north of France.
When I was In America, though it was
winter time (this includes the spring, which-
only exists" in American almanacs), I was al-
ways thirsty: the dryness of the atmosphere

John Asplmvall Talks in a Very Familiar
Way About Him.
John Aspinwall, of Barrytown, N. Y., de-
livered a lecture at the Cooper Institute on
the little busy bee, its anatomy and physi-
ology, and illustrated his remarks by stere-
opticon news, showing the insect and its
workings in all their details.
" While in its physl’cal make up the bee is In
many respects the opposite of man in his liab-
its and tricks, he very much resembles the
lord of creation, and were bees to be trans-
formed into men some would undoubtedly go
into the police force or in the board of alder-
men, while there would be note few succmors
to Jake Sharp and to the inexperienced young
toughs who get clubbed by the police and are
then sent up to the penitentiary for dishon-
esty and gener “sass." The occupations of
walking delegate and dude washers are also
found in apiarian society.
The little bee, that is, the worker, is a
horny skinned child of toil. He is incamd in
rings and shields of smooth born to shield
him against attacks of his own species, and
he toils as long as there is light. He has not
not backbone Iago-mp: or a mule, but in-
“p‘os‘o‘j‘ust‘lis wot, aha th ‘
m
tain his rights. Between his tongue and
sting there is a complicated mechanism that
is of great use to the farmer and to nature.
Aside from the honey that he distills, and
which is worth thousands of dollars annually
to the farmer nnd’fo commerce, his habit. of
poking his head into flowers and covering it
th pollen, which he brushes of! in other
flowers, renders him a benefactor to nature
”in fertilizing flowers. Before the advent of
the bee in Australia it was imposiblo to get
anyseeds of red clover there. Of course, his
process of making honey might not suit the
most fastidious taste, for honey is partially
digested cane sugar, made so by the aidof
b'eo saliva. but as the bee is a perfectly clean
little animal that revels in nectarallday
Icing, these little ,iifl‘ég'ularitieo must be over-
:o'oked. Besides,"ho usosa different mouth
for‘th'o honey. ' ’ ' ' ” " .
The bee ish good flyer, butashis wings are
smaller in proportion to his body thanure
those of the eagle to the king of xbirds, he
has ,to-flap them more frequently, no he "flaps ;
Inwayattho rate of 446 flaps to the minute.
He has no lungs, "but a :system of tiny air
I-IQtubosextend through all parts of the body,
and those he packs with air when he wants _
,to fly. Neither has he a heart, but ll dorsal ,

beautiful object, and as it is not ,theflo'entei‘pf >

much if out off if it were not for the eyes, ‘
two of which have 4,000 lenses each to see the
honey flowers afar off, and two others to
assist in doing tho liiicrOscopal work in the
hive.
The entrances to the hive are very care-
fully guarded by sentinels, and every bee on
arriving at the door is challenged by them
with their antennae If he can give the
countersign he is admitted into the sanctuary,
but if he cannot be ist-in danger, for bees are
very nervous insects, and di'aw'stings on the
The applicant must
be a thief, and old thieves are detected by ex-
perienced sentinels, but; the form of challeng-
' ing must be gone through first. ”
The old thief bee is fat and sleek and shin-
ing and very suave. 'tIf caught by sentinels,
he will at; once try to make a deal and offer
the policemen some sugar, and while they are
eating it be either slips in and fills up .at the
cells or he retreats and tries another hive. If
the sentinels are incorruptiblo, the thief humps
himself, draws his horny shields tight around
him so that the stingwa the policemen may
not penetrate and runs. A young thief
stands up to fight and gets clubbed. Ho
lmms by experience.
The queen bee has not got such a very easy
time. She has plenty to eat and eats it, and
flies very little; but as she has to lay all the
eggs of the colOny, and often lays more than
her weight of eggs in one day, the bees bo-
grudge her nothing, but let her have her own
way everywhere.
' The drone is the dude and walking delegate

SBOVING BOATS OVER EEOALS.
When hostood among a gang of laborers
the contrast made them look like children.-
Tho” strolling Indians would staroot-him in
amazement a few moments, and than with a
deep “Ugh" would hasten out of sight as
rapidly as their dignity would permit.
He was put to do the work of two pairs of-
oxen; to remove the’truuks of trees, cut in-
lengths of ten or twelve feet, out of the way
of the diggers. He did not drag it aside as
oxen would have done. but, putting his right
hand under the end of the log, raising it from
the ground, then balancing iii acres his left
forearm, he shot it far out to’one side with
all the case that a skilled ”workman piles split
cordwood. . And thus, day. after day, the
giant worked until tho canal was finished.
Freeman’s next appearance 'wa's on the
boats that plied along the Enron river, in
Michigan, where he was at once engine and
tackle to handle heavy freight. What others
could not shove or roll he would pick up and
carry, or perhaps toss. When the heavily
freightcd bout stuck. on the ripples he often
stepped out of the stern and pushed it over.
The crew would have scarcely been surprised
.I if he had taken both boat and cargo under
his Injrm and marched across by land when
they chine to long bends in the river.
It was not long after this time that some
sporting men unfortunately heard of this un‘
celebrated giant and concluded that there
was “money in him.” Freeman was as sim-
310 as a child. He lacked ambition, had no
osire to exhibit or push himself, and pos-
sessed a most amiable dispOsition. Any One
could lead him, and he never 'appeared'fo
realize that he ,was in any way remarkable. :
This innocence was taken ladybutfige of by
those sharpen-s. who determined to turn his
prodigious powers to their personal advan-
tage. Acuordipgly, lie was persuaded to ac-
companythem fo the eastern states under
promise of for more profitable ample ” ' .
It is not strange that in such company the
good natured giant s'oon fell into bad habits.
Unfortunately giants are only men, and the
gamblers who captured poor Freeman made
sport of him as the Philistines made sport of
the helpless Samson.
It is related that at Bufialo they sent him
into a dock saloon with a 1,600 pound anchor
under his arm, much as a chopper cal-fies his
ax, to pawn it for drinks. He got the liquor,
and the barkeeper was glad to treat him for
carrying the anchor outragaln.
HE bum or communion.
Tho giant’s new friends soon tl‘nvnluifisn
English champion, but they found that they
had an elephant on their hands
A friendly sparring match asan experi-
ment, with a professional boxer, showed that
for Freeman a match with any living pugilist
was Imposible. Tho giant’s face could not
be effectually reached. Blows on hisbody
might as well have been planted on sound
bag, while his blows were given with the
force of a pile driver, and no matter what
they met, the obstacle went to the earth. '
By the ruse of representing him aslarge
and strong, but wholly ignorant of the
science, his backers finally succeeded in
making a match with a noted prize fighter.
The parties came on the ground, but at the
first; sight of Freeman his opponent turned
away, saying: “I came to fight with a large
man, not with a mountain." The seconds
and referees thereupon declared the match
fairly roofl‘n .. ~ ,' '- ~ ...:. I
And now the unlucky giant became aware
of the worthlesnoss of his mercenary friends.
.While there was a prospect that he could win
fortune: for them they had lured him for
a'way‘fro'm his home and this few bumble ‘
