Don’t force the stomach and other organs already weakened by sick ness to wear themselvess out in a vain attempt to obtain nourish ment from improper foods. Feed the sufferer with milk and V Bovinine that great food product. It is ab sorbed immediately into the sys tem with the least possible effort on the part of the various organs. Besides making new flesh and blood, it strengthens all of the vital centres, enabling them to expel existing poisons. It is a germicide, and antidotes the fever microbes.

AMONG THE SPORTSMEN A Game Warden’s Seizure of a Lot of Dressed Lamb. A peculiar case of eearoh aud seizure occuired.at the steamboat wharf, Mon day, iu Millhridge, just as the frank Jones made her landing. Game Warden Corliss figured prominently in the case and so did the defunct Petit Manan Land and Industrial Co. For a long time It has been rumored that a great slaugh ter of deer was going on In the deer park on Petit Manan Point, and many looal parties have been under suspicion and even acoused of poaching and violating the game laws within the limits of the deer park. But not till last Monday, did Gapt. F. O. Parker, who claims to own the deer, take legal measures to capture aud seize the venison. Procuring a saroh warrant from a local justice, Game Warden Corliss proceeded to open several boxes In whioh he found only newly killed and dressed lambs, which the par ties were shipping to Boston. It seems that a few days prior another similar process had;been taken out by Capt. Parker with tbo same results. Fresh lamb, not venison, was fouDd In tbe boxes each time, and as there is no dose time on sheep tbe suspected parties were Dot arrested. The joke was greatly en joyed by tbe onlooking passengers about to embark on the steamer. War on the Wild Cat. For several years past, and especially during the present season, says the Ma ohlas Republican, the attention of sports men aud others interested in the game laws of Maine, has been called to the rapid increase of the bob or wildoat. From one section of tbe Ptate to the other come reports of this four footed depredator, whose ferocity and insatiable death-dealing instinct to all game which in itn txt n vr ia rma n f the niftctl nur. plexlng problems which confronts all trueisportsmen.: Not only do all kinds of ,bir(la and small game fall prey to him, but large numbers of do A are, it is claimed, annually killed by thesescourg ers of our woods. A movement is on foot to petition the Legislature for a bounty on all wild oats, Canadian lynx, and animals of a like nature. This aotlon is considered necessary owing to the almost worthless pelt of these animals. It is to be hoped that sportsmen and others in terested will unite in an effort to provide ways and means for diminisblng the numbers of these game destroyers. COLBY UNIVERSITY. University Extension.

OBITUARY. Mrs. Margaret Warren. The citizens of West Buxton were greatly shocked at the sudden death Tuesday morning of Mrs. Margaret Game, wife of Hon. J. F. Warren. Al though it was generally known that she suffered from a serious heart trouble, she had seemed in much better health for the past few months, and her many friends were looking forward to having her many more years. Few women were so nonij endowed by nature, and It was a luxury to know her well and feel as sured of tbe steadfast loyalty of ber friendship. No one could have bean taken from our midst who would be mourned by a larger circle of friends; but saddest of all will be the loss to her husband, sods and sister, Mrs. A. L. Berry, of Bar Mills, aa her duties as wife, mother and sister were always scrupulously performed. Her faith was strong, being a Arm believer in the hap piness of the whole human family. While It would seem to us that she was so muoh nee da In her home, where she was so surrouuded by every comfort and luxury: “God’s ways are not our ways,’’and the time of separation will be short, when there will be a glorious reunion and an unbroken family. Fu neral at her late residence next Saturday afternoon, conducted by Bev. J. L. Marsh of Saco. Episcopalian Club. Plans are being made for an associa tion of laymen belonging to the Episco pal church in this .diooese, to be called the Church Club of Maine. Tbo objects of a Chuioh Club are the cultivation of a better acquaintance among ohurohraen of the diocese and an increased Interest in the religious, moral and eduoational work of the church. Church clubs are very popular and very successful in[other states and it is believed that such a olub will be of great benefit to tho churoh In this State. Any confirmed layman Is eligible to membership who Is t regular attendant and supporter of the churoh in this diooese. It is intended'to hare regular monthly meetings and a banquet oDce or twice a year. At these meetings the work of tbe church£(ohlefly ?in the dio oese) is discussed generally by debates upon a set, special toplo, and the debate is usnally begun by well known speakers Invited for tbe purpose. Out of these de bates generally, grows the appointment of special committees to Investigate and report, and these reports are used for general Information and incitement to action in the various parishes. A meeting will be held In this city next Monday evening to hear the report of the committee and to effect an organ ization to which all the chuicbes in the diocese are invited. The Registration. The regitration is olosed, and the re sult shows a larger registration in Oc tober for a presidential eleotiou than for a number of years. The number of new names registered was 261.

A Combination Boom in Prospect in Brunswick, Tbe Brunswick Telegraph reports that Contractor Cobh Is already at work on a building to be 100 feet long and 44 wide on Stan wood street on land purchased of the Dunning helrsjwhioh will give to that seotion of tbe town an impetus such as has long been desired. The buildiDg Is the result of a coalition between sev eral local industries with a General Eleotrio Machine Co. now doing busi ness under the name of the Auburn Motor Co. This oompany employ.^ about 30 htnus mostly skilled labor. Id the building will be the forule factory now doing business in tbo Cove and possibly others. These concerns all expeot to en large their business and give a general boom to Brunswiok which is very grati fying. Eull particulars can not be given as yet as plans have not matured. It la expeoted that arrangements will be made with the Snow Signal Company who are about ready to branoh out and make tbeir maohlnes on a large scale. The machines are designed for use on electrio oars. They were doing a little figuring at Ruraford Eall the other day to see how much money Is regularly turned over to the wage earuers. Counting just the home corporations Salone—meaning by this the regularly established plants and leaving out altogether tbe transient work of contractors and builders, the aggregate pay roll amounts to $40,000 per month or nearly half a million per year. Mr. R. W. Brown is busy excavating and preparing to erect buildings on hlB reoent purchase, north of High street In Skowbegan. He will first erect a build inn QAvKA n of mill loaninrr a. OTtnno between High street and tbis building for a beef house 30x60 feet which will be erected later. He „will then erect a building further north along beside the railroad ground and next the south line of Hr. Hascomb’s lot a large store house for coal, hay, etc. These buildings when completed will aggregate about 200 feet in length by 80 wide. Only a few years ago Port Clyde bad thirty sobooners engaged in deep sea fishing. Now there is but one, captained by Andrew Marshall. The lobster in dustry is providing the necessaries of life for quite a number of families, about 45 men being engaged. More than 30 boats are employed and,the daily catch is es timated at 2000 lobsters. The wholesale price is 8 oents each. Buyers from outside the state are quiet ly operating among the farmers in Aroostook and buying up oonBidoraDle quantities of potatoes at a slightly ad vanced prioe. Bangor advices to In terested parties in Houlton say that there has been a big jump in the price of potatoes in tbe past few days in that market. At Houlton they are selling for 80 cents cents per barrel and for 75 oents at Fort Fairilold and Caribou. Farmers in northern Aroostook are delighted with the prospeot and a more than average crop will be made tbe most of. Tbe quality of this year’s yield is unsur passed, aud should prices go above II per barrel, as now seems likely, it would mean that nosrly 11,000,000 would be put in oiroiilation in northwestern Maine. Large Pack of Corn. N. Cummings Brother, Canning Co, who have had a large pack of corn, at tbe several factories “paid off” tbis week. It is understood that the towns on tbe P. B, B. B. where their factories are located have received about 115,000 In cash, which will help many a^family through thejwinter. Their Springvalo faotory, was about tbe only Industry in that place, which was not shut down tbis fall, on account of the business depression, and gave employment to large numbers. For Shipment by English Steamers. Tbe English steamer season is rapidly spproaohlng the first steamer being ex peoted to arrive here by November 23. Already freight to be shipped across the big pond is commencing to arrive here. Yesterday there oarae over the Grand Trunk in bond, twelve carloads of pens and two of barley, all Canadian produce. Over one hundred oarloads of flour nearly all of New England manufacture is also reported to be on the way here. It will be a busy winter along the Grand Trunk wharves unless all signs fail.

Drying on some fish flakes on Long wharf yesterday wero any number of “bake sounds” as they are called by the fishermen. They are taken from near the baok bone of a hake and after being dried are used In making glue, sizing and other substances. “Hake sounds are not as valuable now as they were once, “and old fisherman volunteered to’a PRESS reporter. “Onoe you got one dollar a pound for them, hut now only twenty-reveD oents n pound is paid. It hardly pays to dry them, blit times are bard, awful hard, in the fishing business as in everything else.” It is surprising to many that foot-ball players and other athletes regard a sprain or bruise of so little consequence. One reason of this is, they know how to treat such injuries so as to recover from them in a few days, while others would be laid up for two of three weeks, if not longer. riting from Central State Nor mal School, Lock Haven, Pa., Mr. W. H. Losch, captain of the base ball club and gymnasium says: “I take pleasure in stating, that members of our base ball club and myself have used Chamberlain’s I ain Balm with most excellent results. I unhesitatingly recommend it as the best remedy for sprains, swellings, cute and bruises, of any that I know.” For sale by Landers A Babbidge, 17 Monument Square, and H. P. s.

The revenue matter Woodbury oanao in yesterday morning with the orew of the wreoked British schooner Emma V. on board. The Emma D. was commanded by Captain Comeau, and his crew all bore the same name, being either cousins or brothers. To a PRESS reporter the captain of the Emma D. told the story of his ship wreck. The vessel was bowling along before a stiff breeze off Port Clyde, and although the sea was rough there appeared to be littlo danger ns far as the vessel was concerned. A reef was seen over the lee bow of the schooner, ov«r whiob the waves were dashing in an awe inspiring manner. Captain Camsaa did not give this reef a wide enough berth, and as a result the schooner strnek. The Emma D. was loaded with spiling and potatoes and al though the revenue cutter Woodbury tried on two different occasion to pull the vessel off She reef, she found It im possible to do so. The schooner will prove an entire loss. She was not in sured. Captain Comeau spoke in the highest terms of the treatment he and bis men had recoivedat the hands of the officers and oiew of «re revenue cutter Woodbury, wbo had (one all they could to save his vessel, ant to make the ship wreoked sailois oomfortnble. Captain Comeau and his mer will be taken to their homes in N«va Scotia by the schooner Audooieu^ now loading at Brown’s wharf. WEDCINGS. Gardlntr-Dow.

A Philadelphia politician oonducts his speaking oanvass from the rear platform of a trolley oar. The Republican town oommittee of the large factory town of Bristol, Conn., have asked all the faotory owners to sound whistles at six o’clock next Tues day morning to awaken voters and get them early at the polls. The women voters of Colorado are taking little interest in politics this year. Two years ago they had a laudable ambition to rid the state of Populism and prevent Wait from being re-eleoted. Capitol Hill society women were very active then in political work. They gave toas, held afternoon receptions at whioh good campaigft talkers of both sexes in structed the new voters, and managed a number of publio meetings in balls asd theatres.

John Pettlngill yesterday, captured off Cliff island a giant sea turtle, wbiob will be plaoed on exhibition at H. A. Sargent's Congress street market. The p turtle was seen by Pettengill floating on d: the top of the water and the man at once g* tumbled into his dory and rowed out to- al wards the monster, which was lying per- T feotly motionless on the waves, and was evidently asleep. When the boat got near to him, however, the turtle awoke and suddenly sank below the surface. Petten- y gill waited about in the vicinity for the V turtle to come to the surface again to 11 breath, and his patience was soon re warded with the sight of the huge shell T bauk above the water. The man now got jy near enough to the turtle to reach him with an oar. This the turtle seized in his vise-llke jaw and immediately T smashed it Into slivers. Pottengill sue- oeerted In getting a rope around one of the big fellow’s flippers, and by a xud den pull flopped him over on his baok. In this position the turtle was almost helpless and Pettengill succeeded lu pull ing him into the boat, but not before the big fellow had bitten a big piece out of the side of the boat. When seen by the PRESS reporter the turtle was lying on the floor of N. F. Trefethen’s flah house and seemed nearly dead, although when a piece of a lathe was poked at his jaw he snapped at it in good turtle style and quickly crunched it up as if it bad been made, of paper. The big fellow’s flippers were very large and apparently quite strong, althougn one of them looked as if it had been in jured seme time before possibly, in a marine battle with some other noa monster. The turtle’s belly was of a pink color, and bis neck was fully four inches In diameter. The shell on the turtle’s baok was fully two feet in diameter and was of a dark green color, and covered with large sized barnacles, showing the CUi LXD (Ilf MO VOX/ UiU, XUU UiUUHlUr weighed 360 pounds and was the largest seen in this port for many years. He was evidenlty a little out of his bailiwick when oangbt, as turtles of his speoles are usually to be found farther south than Portland. The Ladies’ Aid Course. The Ladies’ Aid of the St. Lawrenoe street Congregational churob have ar ranged a grand couree of fiva entertain ments to be given at City hall, for the purpose of seouring funds for the oomple tiou of the new stood church now being ereoted at the corner of Cungess and Munjoy streets. There has already been suoh interest shown by many of our best citizens in the matter of the erection of the building, that it is reasonable to be lieve the efforts put forth by the ladles of tha church will meet with a most hearty response, and the entertainments prove a grand flnanoial success. The committed have arranged for the following enter tainments: Leland T. Powers, the famous imper sonator and reciter, will open the course and present his latest adaptation, “Lord Chumley,” in which he impersonates ten characters. His art is unique, and of a type original with himself. Mr. Powers will be followed by the _ favorites of Portland, Miss Jessie Conthoul, and her conoert company, con sisting of Miss Jessie Hyland, cornet, Miss Elizabeth Levings, soprano, Mrs. George Hubbard Wilder, flutist, and a pianist. These artists are all stars in their particular lines. Miss Couthoui alone aught to fill the hoi^se. The third entertainment will be given by Mr. Arthur Beresford, the celebrated basso, assisted by Mme. Sophia Markee, soprano, Miss Annie Louise Holden, alto, Mr. J. C. Bartlett, tenor, Miss Mabel Beaman, violinist, and a pianist. This Is undeniably one of the most highly artistio combinations before the publio. Number four, the Albion Male Quar tette, formerly the Buggies Street Quar tette, with Dr. G. B. Clark, the well known basso, also Messrs. Bateman. Bartlett and Remelo as members. They will be assisted by a lady vocalist and a ninniil The oourse will close with the original Nashville Students, jubilee singers of Fisk University. The entire company of ten will appear in a programme replete with all the latest jubilee melodies as well as plantation, river and o£bin songs. The sale, and exchange of tickets, for oourse tickets, at Stnokbridge’a will be announced later. Half fare and late trains will be arranged on the railroads. The committee having the matter in charge are, Mrs. Ablel H. Wright, presi dent; Mrs. Charles L. Jack, Mrs. Lizzie H. Merrill, Mrs. W. L. Blake, Mrs. Stephen E. Lcoke. Day of Prayer.

Spain has sent 165,000 soldiers into Cuba since March, 1895, and has nothing but proclamations to show for it. The perilous troubles lu Delaware make Republicans truly thankful that Higgins and Addicts do not live iu a bigger State. One hundred and twenty-five thousand men will be in the line of the sound money parade in New York city today. This is a larger number than the Army of the Hotomao had in most of its cam paigns, yet New York city turns them out for an afternoon’s parade, and no one thinks especially of the magnitude of the effort. The most unique and touching feature of this campaign has been the tour of the Union generals. Five veterans of the rebellion, O. O. Howard, Daniel E. Siokles, T. J. Stewart, O. A. Mardon and RUBsell A. Alger, have travelled througU seven Statesfand delivered over a hundned speeches to over a million people. A platform car, with a cannon and .a mottar on it, is ^fqttaohed to their train, a uugici- a;»u Hunmupauies mem, sounds the call for the laudiences to as semble and sounds taps, as the meeting dotes. The generals ^poak of national honor, domestic order'and the authority of the government, as well as argue for sound money. They have had a great influence, especially among their old comrades in arms, and have won the hatred of the free silver leaders of the West. The liorsuless carriage seems to he gain ing ground very rapidly. Over four hundred are in use in France, where they are palled “automobiles.” Those who run them are called ‘“automedons, and they have clubs, fetes, meets, and a journal of their own. In this country the horseless carriage has hardly estab lished itself in an experimental stage, even. Our streets and roads are a great difficulty, being so far inferior to the splendid highways of Franco as to mako the problem of using tho horseless car riage entirely different here. Yet Ameri can manufacturers are giving much thought to the subject, and some are said to be preparing for tbe manufacture of carriages for tbe market. It is evident that tbe horseless carriage is destined soon to be another powerful argument for good roads. The Board of Overseers of Harvard University have voted that every can didate for admission to the undergradu ate departments should give evidenoe that he can write the English language with euoh degree of neatness and skill in penmanship, correctness in spelling and grammar and facility of expression aj will enable him to enter, without further elementary instruction, on the elective studies to whieh he proposes to devote himself, including the more ad rsnced courses iu English composition. It will be observed tbat neatness and skill in peumanshlp are mentioned at well as oorrect grammatical construc tion. This old-fashioned acoomplisb ment, valued by George Washington) but discouraged by the depraved pen manship of some great modern writers, like Horace Greeley, aud the great in crease in the use of typewriters, has been in a fair way to pass still further into desuetude. The action of the Overseers of Harvard deserves to he noted and em ulated in every college and school in the country. The charges of fraud and intimidation made by the ohiefs of the Democratic and Populist campaigns, are an uu pleasant and needless, not to say danger ous, feature of this campaign. These men realize that they are beaten, badly beaten, and instead of preparing to take their defeat like men, have begun to sputter about frand arid intimidation. Such oharges have been features of polit ical campaigns ns long as history has preserved the records. They are the common excuses of the ungraojous de feated in all generations. But they are peculiarly out of place in this campaign fcr several reasons. It has been a most iirmual canvass, 'n which the Bryan leaoers and Bryan himself have appealed to seotional aud class jealousies. The people of the South and West have been stirred np against the East; and the poor have been told tbat the rich were trying to put a yoke about their uecks. The debtur nag been told tbat the credi tor is a natural enemy and oppressor;the laborer has been told tbat Ills employer is a plunderer;and tbe farmer has been told tbat the professional and business olasnes are crowding him down to a condition of serfage. Absurd uud mendacious as these charges are, thousands of people believe them. Some who are thus de ceived are the vicious and ignorant. Such belief having been created among such people the Bryan managers have gone deliberatel y to work to convince these people that they ure to be defraud sd by chioanery and corruption of a vio tory which should be theirs. It is evi dent that if the election should be dose there might he trouble from the classes who have been taught that the] are to be cheated. The experiences of 1876 are yet fre3h in the minds ol the people of this oountry; and they know the terrible strain of those days of uncertainty. The Bryan managers have done an unwise, an unpatriotic and perhaps a dangerous thing in putting forth their reckless and mendacious charges. WHAT THE RKFUBEICANS MUST DO. To win McKinley needs 234 electoral votes. The following States will give them to him: Maine,. 6 New Hampshire. 4 Vermont. 4 Massachusetts.15 Rhode Island. 4 Connecticut.6 New York.36 Pennsylvania.32 New Jersey.10 Ohio.23 Indiana.-.15 Illinois.24 Wisconsin... 12 Michigan.14 Iowa. -13 Minnesota.,. 9 Total.227 in cases of loss in this column McKin ley has upon very conservative estimate the following States for reserves: Delaware. 3 Maryland. 8 Kentucky.13 West Virginia... 6 Total. 30 If McKinley should lose Michigan out of this list he could be eleoted if he should carry both Delaware (3) and Mary land (8), or if he should oarry Ken tucky (13) alone. If he should lose Indiana alone out of the list, he could he eleoted by carrying the single State of Kentucky, or by car rying the combination of Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia (6). If he should lose both Michigan and Indiana, he would require 26 votes out side, which be could get with Maryland, Kentucky and West Virginia. Indiana and Miohigan seem to be the only States In the list which can by any chance be regarded as doubtful; and the chances seem exceedingly small that Mo Kinley should lose both of them. The States from which he may reconp himself for these possible losses soein sure enough to warrant the conviction that he cannot fail to get the neoessary 224 votes. This calculation leaves out entirely the two Dakotas and Nebraska, whioh good authorities regard as safe for McKinley, but which are too far west to allow cautious Eastern'judges to feel too con fident about them. CURRENT COMMENT. MR. REED IN THE EAlt WEST. (Springfield Republican.) It is fortunate that Mr. Reod has been able to cross the continent on an elec tioneering tour. He has addressed an immense audience at Wichita, Kan., and his speeches on the Pacific slope these closing days should do much to inspire Republicans with enthusiasm and hope. That tire distinguished speaker, who is now recognized as the ablest man in the Republican party, should be sent at this time to the far distant Golden Gate, in dicates that the Republican managers have never abandoned for a moment the Paciflo slope to the free silver forces. That he should be allowed to go at all shows, too, l)ow confident and high are Republican hopes in the middle West. Would Speaker Reed be spared, oould be be spared, from Indiana, Mlohigan and Illinois, if those battle grounds were still trembling under the doubtful shook of rfvnl political armies? He goes be cause he can be spared. California, Oregon and Washington have been claimed by the silver men from the outset of this campaign. It must be admitted that in those states the silver idea is strong and that the only hope of defeating it lies in the large cities, where commercial and hanking interests center. Washington, since the defeotion of Senator Squire from the Re publican party, has baeu practically abandoned. Oregon has been deemed more promising despite Its formidable Populist vote, and a heroic fight Us been waged by the Portland OregoniBa for sound money under the most discourag ing oliourastanoes. California Wag tb« only state in the union, not in the South, to go Democratic two rears ago it has a Widely circulated free silver press and, being a great mining state, the olaims of the silver men seem to meet with sympathy among the gold mining class. Bufe California is reckoned erratio. It does unexpoctecl and inoom prebenslble things in elections, and so there Is hope that the old love for the Republican party, which blazed up most warmly in the days when Blaine was its foremost leader may again be stirred by the presence and the appeals of still an other “man from Maine.” The sober-minded sanity of Mr. Reed’s campaign utterances bis wholesome con servatism, his avoidunce of, abuse, his refreshing appeals for good feeilng be tween the “seotions” render him ex ceptionally qualified to talk over the Issues with the people of the West. He has never said as Dr. Everett did, that the whole Paciflo coast region might well b« sold baok to Mexico for 60-oent dollars; he has never maligned the native Amerlcnn farmers as Theodore Roosevelt has done by calling them the basest olaas of Amerioan oitiznns. Mr. Reed does not get furiously exolted ami insult large fraotions of bis fellow-oonntry-rnen if they do not nsppeu to agree with his ideas. He goos to the Golden Gate an apostle of peace, toleration and forhear anoe yet preaching the truths of this campaign with the strength that is iu him. And so there is hope that his visit May have the most substantial results. FIRST DYNAMITE GUN USED IN WAR. Gen. Maceo Tries a Field Piece of Ameri can Make on Spanish Troops with Tell ing Effect. For thn first time in all history a dyna mite field piece has been used in warfare, In the battles of Ceja del Negro and Guamo Mountain, Oct. 3 and 4, Antonio Maceo, the Cuban insurgent leader, made use with telling effect of a dyna mite gun mnnufaotured in the United States. The new weapon wrought bavoo In the Spanish linen. It made nans in the Spanish squares and reduced to ruin the sections of breastworks against whioh it was turned,; It was one of the most im portant factors in winning the Insurgent viotory. Even the Spanish papers admit its effectiveness upon the troops. There are two ol the new guns now in the island, one with Maceo at Pinar del Bio; the other with Gen. Calixto Garcia in thelOriente, but as yet only one of them has come into aotlon. Both guns are of American make and of the Simms Dudley pattein. The gun used by Maceo left Jacksonville on tbe Three Friends Sept. 4, and reached thejisiand Sept. 9. The gun and carriage together weigh a little over 2,000 pounds, ana the ease with which it can be muved about is one of its chief advantages. The gun con sists of three tubes, set side by side, the middle or main barrel being sixteen feat lung and the side tubes four feet shorter. The projecting force is compressed air. At the extremity of one of the side tubes there is a breach mechanism whole n cartridge of smokeless powder is ex ploded, forcing the air in the tube through a connection into the tube on tbe other Jside, i and from that to the middle barrel, where it discharges the projectile. The projectile looks like a long arrow with an elongated head. It weighs thirty-three pounds, thirteen pounds of this being tbe oharge of explosive. It is equipped with time fuses, and will bur row into the ground eight feet before exploding. Fifteen ounces of high-grade smokeless powder will throw the shell one and a half miles. The disbarge of the Tgun is unaccom panied by the usual cannon roar. In stead there is a sharp crash like tbe sound of a breaking stick. Whatever flame and smoke attend the explosion are oonsunad in the first tube, and at night the gun oan be Jooated only by tli o noise, In this is found one of its most valua ble features, useful in day as well as night, as it makes oouoeatment easy. In the battles in whioh the gun received its baptism the Spanish tried again and again to capture it, but without avail. As soon as its position had become known to thb enemy it was moved, and the.Spaulsh ^troops, on attacking the line at that point,] found no gun there. Its lightness made rapid trar. ser easy. state ^topics of interest, That story of a Caribou potato-raiser who refuseu an offer of 48 cents a barrel for eleven barrels of potatoes, declar ing that he would have $5 or nothing for the load, is matched by a yarn that comes frnivi rjfAnH T.nlro Ufnnnin i_! recently went alter a oalf that he hart pastured all summer and asked what he owed lor the pasturing. ‘Well,” says the farmer, “I’ve got a bill of *7.00 against you, but I will take the call and oull It settled, providing you are willing.” “No sir,’’ was the answer. “I will not do that, but I will tell what I will do: You keep the calf two weeks longer and you oan have her.” There are two brothers in the town of Auburn, aged 84 and 84 Tears, quite smart hoys of their age. The oldest one has the management of a large farm. The youngest one is a sort of sorting oharaoter. In the spring he traps for muskrats. He visited his traps one day and found a blue heron in one uf them caught by the foot. lie thought he would take his game home alive. After quite a tussle he managed to get him there all right. He kept the bird as loog as profitable, they killed him and had his skin stuffed. The bird stands 8 feet 9 inches in his stoakings and has a beak 7 inohes long.

MUSIC AND DRAMA. County Fair. The “County Fair” is one of the best the most natural plays [of New England life that hold the stage today. Its lines are so good, its situations so natural that it must be a pretty poor actor who can hot give a fair Interpretation to the role in whioh he is oast, while a good aotor has great possibilities in many of tbe characters. Of course good kind Miss Abigail Prue is the oentre of attraction but Otis Tucker, Solomon, Taggs, Sally, Joel and Bill are much more than feat ures they enable their personators to make a record for themselves. We do not propose to institute any comparisons be tween the actors who assumed these roles I last nigh* and their predescessors in for mer companies. It Is enough to say that they kept the large audienae present in good humor, that ripples of laughter con i stantly passed through the house, that applause was frequent and hearty, and that the race whioh Cold Molasses wins, aroused great enthusiasm, as was natural. Last evening Miss Joshua Crowell was Miss Abigail; Jennie Sohu mann the Taggs; Edna Terry the Sally; Lon Stevens was Otis; Frank Leiden, Solomon; George E. Martin, Joel; W, H. Healy, Tim C. L. Gansey, Bill Booker. A number of pleasing specialities are introduced by the members of the oom pany and tbe four-in-hand Pioanniny Quartette pleased exceedingly. The County Fair will be repeated st the matinee today—an excellent ohance for the ladles and ohildren—and in the evening. Sawtelle Dramatic Co. All next week at Portland theatre, there will be a matinee every afternoon except Monday and an evening perform tv thn SnntiPllH Dramatic CJo.. aud Imperial band and orchestra. The Wor cester Spy says: “Mnob of My. Sawtelle’s socess can be i and Is oredlted to the clever support of bis charming and talented wife, Jessie Sawtelle. Mrs. Sawtelle was born in York, Pa., In 1871, and early showed an aptitude for thefstage. Just fonr years ago this month she entered Sawtelle’a company as leading lady, and auooess has followed her firBt appearance. She Is a beautiful woman with a rich full voloe, which rings out dear in tragia llnesfond has all the soft ^monotones Whloh pathos requires. She and |ber husband, as stars, are strong attractions and their ability is everywhere acknowl edged.’’ Piano Recital. A very delightful piano recital was given at Kotzschmar hall last evening by Misses Stella Newmark aud Florence Traub illustrating the Virgil olavier methods. These young ladies play with power as well as delioacy. Their runs are clear, velvety and accurate, their arpeggios brilliant, and their octave and ohord-work rapid and effective. Their motions are graceful and easy, and their playing is marked by much repose of manner. This was the programme: Polonaise, Chopin NaolistuoK, S°bnmann Scherzetto, Moskowski Miss Stella Newmark.

Adams of Boston) as their soprano. The musical critics of this city who bare heard Miss Craft, all agree in say lag she has a wonderful voice and will be a great addition to the musioal talent of this city. At tomorrow morning servioe Miss Craft will sing a solo by “Faure.” Insurance Bleu Dine. Mr. C. H.

NOTES ALONG THE WHARVES. Some of the Gossip About the Shipping In the Harbor, The schooner Charity which punched a hole in her bottom last summer at the Grand Trunk elevator wae in the harbor yesterday. The tug Nathaniel P, Doan tossed Into port two ooal barges yesterday afternoon. The fish arrivals yesterday were the Lottie May, 10,000; Barnette, 15,000; Alloe Norwood, 3000. The schooner Golden Sheaf has com pleted her repairs, finished her deck load and is now getting stoiea aboard. She looks very, neat in her new rig and with plenty of new oanvas forward. Her crew have been signed and they will go board Saturday morning and she will be hauled into the stream. The sahooner William B. Palmer has been towed into the stream. She will sail for Baltimore with the first favorable wind. The sohoonpr Mattie B. Bussell, which has been at Blchardtbn's wharf loading barrels for Glen Cove, N. Y., is ready to sail. The schooner Cellna has nearly com pleted loading oooparage for Martinique. The Old Schooner Ernestine. The old schooner Ernestine, formerly a brig, was in the port yesterday for a har bor. She is one of the oldest vessels that visits Portland, but she is as soond as a rook. A queer thing about her is the way she handles her foresail. As the old (oremaet lias never bean changed sinoe the Ernestine was converted into a eohooner, it£is impossible for the gaff and sail to slide up and down the mast on boops. So the gaft is stationary just be low the cross trees, like the gaff of a spanker, and her foresail is brailed up ilka a spanker instead of being lowered or raised. She presents the unnsual sight nf a Hnhnoner with a f ore-tnn-c nil Jill t. mast. The Ernestine is loaded with loe from the Kennebeo and la hound to Boston. This vessel has had a varied oareer. She was built in 1888 at Yarmouth and was originally rigged a brig. For some years she was In the West India trade under the aommand of Captain E. R. Norton, now manager of the marine railway. She was very suooeesful and earned con sideiable money for her owners. When the glory of the West India trade had waned the Ernestine was put to other uses. Several years ago she was hauled up on the Booth Portland flats and lay there for over a year. She was Anally purchased by Captain Jewett, who had her rigged as a sohooner. Women’s Lit©ary Union. The monthly business meeting of the W. L. U. was held yesterday afternoon in the vestry of the Second Advent ohuroh, the president Mrs. Clarke, in the chair. The reports of the eeoretary, treasurer and various commltteees of the Federa tion” work w ere heard and accepted and several new clubs were voted Into the union. As the organization has quite out grown the seating capacity of the oozy little Sscond Advent oburch, It was vot ed to ohauge the meeting place to Pine street church. A vote of thanks was passed recogniz ing the universal oourtesy the “Union” had always received from the represen tatives of the Advent ohuroh and its care-takers and the meeting adjourned till November 14th when the next open ■esslon will be held at Pine street ohuroh. Monson Hillside Slate Co. The annual meeting of the Monson Hillside Slate company was held in this oily Thursday afternoon and tha follow ing offioers elected: President—Gilman A. Low of Booth bay Harbor. Treasurer—Benjamin G.Ward of Port land. Ulerk—George M.Blake of Portland. Secretary—Clark B. Dunton of Port land. Directors—John J.Gsrrisb, James De Wulfe, Benjamin G. Ward and Clark B. Dunton of Portland; Randall D.Bibber of Bath; Gilman A. Low of Boothbay Harbor and Franklin A. Laughton of Gardiner. New Scheme at the Elevator. T be work on the Grand Trunk elevator has been greatly hindered by the high tides. The water flows into the pit and for two or three hours, or until it sub sides all work U brought to a standstill. To prevent this inflow of water the eni neeis in obarge of the work have con structed a bulkhead aro und the pit wbioh trill aot as a dam and it is hoped will keep the tide water out so that the work of spile driving end exoavating can be carried on uninterru pted. The new bulkhead will be tried this afternoon and if It works suooessfully will aid the contractor materially in pushing the work along. Arrangements for Winter Stevedoring. Fred Neal, the stevedore of the Allan liDe at Boston was in the oity yesterday to make Arrangements for doing the stevedoring of the Allan line here this winter. Just what was accomplished by Mr. Neal yesterday could not be learned, but it is known that the Allan Steam ship line anticipates the^gbueiest season in its history in Portland, and the per son who secures the stevedoring oontraot this winter will probably have few leis nre moments to himself during the winter.

ELECTRICAL WONDERS Some of the Latest L)eve lopmeuts In the World of Sc ience. Acoordiug to tbo experiments of Dr. Lertrara Thornton, the telephone Drom es to he of material UBe in the education t hose deaf mutes who possess a frag iit of hearing power, and it has the fol v. ing important advantages over the tie speaking tube tbat is sometimes el: With it a teaoher can inetruot a up of children at the same time. As is not necessary for the teaoher to ap his mouth close to tho transmitter, lie pupils have a full view of his feat ures, expression and lip movements, which is not the case when he has to di rect his attention and his voice into the month of the speaking tube or trumpet. It is well Known that in most cases of deafness the actual hearing part of the apparatus, so to speak, is capable of per form g its function, but the mechan ism for collecting the' sound waves and transmitting them to the oocblea—the spiral cavity of the inner ear—and its appendages is defective. This is a Iso the case in a large proportion of instances of deaf mutism. In using the ordinary speaking tube the voice of the speaker is increased In intensity to an almost pain ful degree, and the lips have to be placed close to the mouthpieoe. By using the telephone an intensification of the voiae at least equal to the most improved form of par trumpet is obtained at a distance varying fiom six inches to one foot from tbo mouth of the transmitter. Dr. Thornton has found this tact an immense help in the teaching of deaf mutes. He mentions two oases in which the utility of the telephone was markedly mani fested. The first was that of a young woman with nerve deafness so extreme that it was neoeasary to spenk at tbe top of one’s voice within two or three inches of her ear to enable her to hear. With the telephone he was able to converse with her in a subdued voice with bis mouth twenty-six inches away from the transmitter. In this case she received assistance from reading his lips, though Bbe was only a beginner in the accom plishment. In another case a man with a similar degree of deafness was able to hear his wife anu another person con versing with him in a tone raised hardly above a whisper, they being inside tbe room and he outside with tbe door shut. The value of the telephone in deafness is not yet half appreciated, and many progressive aurlsts are now devoting a good deal of time to the study of the subject. The latest novelty In electrloal ma chines is a bottle filler. The operator places a range of bottles ooramunicating by pipes with tbe liquid to be bottled and provided with electrically controlled valves. The flow of'the liquid is estab lished and shut off automatically, the machine being set in action by the pres sure of a button. The operations of opening and closing the valves are ac complished by two sets of electro-mag nets, tbe two oircuits of whlob are easily under tbe control of the operator. When the bottles are filled the flow is instantly cut off, and they are replaced by empty bottles and corked by an attendant. The machine is increasing in its use by beer bottles, ink and medioine manufac turers. it is claimed to be more rapid than the old siphon-filler; it causee no waste, and it fills every bottle to exactly tue same height, without any attention ftom the operator. A washerwoman in St. Petersburg, liussia, ran a broken needle Into her band, and was unable to extract it. Af ter two months, when the hand had be come so maimed and painful as to be use less, she called in her dootor. He imme diately said it was no case for him, but for an electrician. The electrician was seut for, and the band of tbe woman was placed on tbe pole of a weak electro magnet, which was exalted by three oells. The objeot was to draw the needle out, point first and by degrees. Accord ingly, the experiment was repeated day after day for an ho"r or two at a time, the current, being interrupted so as to urge the needle forward. At the end of nine days it issued from the skin, with out the.loss of a drop of blood, and stuck to the magnet. The ourrent aoted for twenty hours altogether and there was little or no pain. It may be noted that tbe electro-magnet is now an indispensa ble part of the equipment of the oculist, by whom it is used for extraction of metallic substances iron) tbe eye. A handy vray of making an ordinary inoandesuent lamp serve as a shew sign is being turned to accoount by many store keepers. A niokel wire spring olamp, whlob grips the bulb on either side, oar res a transparent disc, upon which any required letters or inscription can he painted. When the lamp is in place and burning the disc is illuminated and the inscription is distinctly seen. Another form of the same device is a semi-opaque, natural glass disc upon a frosted back ground. As the signs are entirely sepa rate from the lamps they never require renewal, and the combinations or the devices oan be changed every day. This is found an excellent medium for out side or show window signs. The “ioe” lamp is another decorative bnlh which gives a beautiful and artistic offeot. The entire surfaoe of the bubl is broken by hundreds of orystals that flash from a thousand faoets when illuminated. It looks exactly like a mass of snow and Ice. In England tbe telephone is much less used than it is in this country. Indeed in many countries the majority of people have never epoken into the instrument. It is, therefore, as may be imagined, a good deal of a mystery to the simple conntry folk, and some amusing stories of its introduction into new districts are told. Tbe very vague ideas that still ex 1st as to the powers and limitations of the telephone were illustrated at a re cent meeting of a hospital board in one of the northern shires, when a proposal was made that the infectious disease building should be connected with the administrative department by tele phone. One member of the board shook his head dubiously over the proposal, and expressed his fears that the telephone would transmit smallpox along its wires as well as speech. This simple faith re calls the oase of the man who, it is re lated, was once talking to his wife through the telephone when the wires were struck by lightning. Tbe shook was so great that it knooked him down. Nothing wonld persuade him that his spoueo had not telephoned the blow to him: ho recognized the familiar touch.

In the Munioiapl court yesterday morn ing Judge Robin sou had befoiejhim Ed ward H. Bishop charged with theft of postage stamps from the Ohebeague post offioe and of being implicated in the burglary of the store whioh Is run by S. B. Hamilton. This is the case reported at length in the PRESS at the time of the Bishop arrest. County Attorney True appeared against Bishop. The oase was before this tribu nal because Commissioner Bradley was out of the city and would not return until two weeks. The county attorney then requested that the oase be contin ued for a hearing until the eighth day of December. Ex-Judge Gould, who Is attorney for Bishop, argued that in justice to the young mau who is accused of a grave crime there should be allowed a hearing at the earliest moment. It seems that a continuation is unfair and if the state ia not ready, the case sbonld be at once dismissed. If the county attorney is not ready, let a nol pros be entered. The county attorney was persistant in bis demands. The good obaraoter of the respondent is always admitted and the state will go so far as to take the person al reoognizanoe cf the young man for appearanoe in December. Judge Gould was just as firm in his stand. The hear ing was then granted and at noon the oase went on trial. The court r iom was well tilled with residents of Great Chebeague island. Mr. Bishop is one of the most popular young men on that island. The oountv attornev PERSONAL. It Is understood that Rev. Carter E.

He was sentenoeC to two montbs.in tbe county jail.

O’Flaherty oonlan’t swear that Fessro was tbe man so be was discharged. Tbe men admitted that they had been drink ing beer. Miohael J. McGrath was fined $5 and costs for being drunk. Thare are several serlaus charges against this man that will undoubtedly be pressed against him after he oomes out of jail.

An Excellent Lobster Law. In a report eent to Mr. O. B. Whitten, commissioner of fisheries, by Fish War u«u layman or car uaroor, ne says tost in bis dlstriot during September of this year 65 boats captured 85,220 lobsters as against 19,891 for the same period of time In 1895. The increase throughout the entire state will be found to preserve about the name ratio as shown In this district. This Is due.to the lobster law that does not permit lobsters under ten and a half Inches to be taken. Cures Cures talk in favor B1 a as of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, p B jLp as for no other medi- H ©fc 1 Srik cine. Its great cures recorded in truthful, convincing language of grateful men and women, constitute its most effective ad vertising. Many of these cureB are mar velous. They have won the confidence of the people; have given Hood’s Sarsapa rilla the largest sales in the world, and have made necessary for its manufacture the greatest laboratory on earth. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is known by the cures it has made—cures of scrofula, salt rheum and eczema, cures of rheumatism, neuralgia and weak nerves, cures of dyspepsia, liver and kidney troubles, catarrh and malaria. Such Cures as This Prove Merit. My little nephew was a plump and healthy baby until a year and a half old, then sores broke out behind his ears and Bpread rapidly over his head, hands and body. A physician said the trouble was scrofula humor in the blood. The child became one complete sore. We had to restrain his hands to keep him from scratching the sores. We were induced to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and in a Bhort time he had more life. He improved rap idly, his skin became entirely clear of sores and he is now a healthy chiid.”| Mbs.

TLA1N DAILY PRESS. ESTABLISHED JUNE 23, 1862—'VOL. 34. PROTLAND MAINE, SATURDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 31, 1896. Invention by Which linages of Ob jects Are Transmitted. DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTRUMENT HY WHICH IT IS BONE. Pictures Are Carried by an Electric Cur rent Passing Through a Piece of Selen ium, the Resistance of Which Yarie With the Light Falling on It. For a quarter of a century soienoi has been laboring with the problem o seeing at a distance—a problem mor difficult tbau that solved by the inven tlon of the telephone, though iu its gen eral obaracteristics somewhat similar Recently It has become evident that tbi solution of the problem Is at hand; tha It Is a matter of but a short time befori It will be possible for a man seated at i desk in Ohloago to keep an eye upoi happenings in New York and in Mai a ranoisco at the same time, with thi surety that what he sees comes to hln first baud and not through the interval] tion of photograph or artist’s sketch. Indeeed the solution of tbe problen has already been found and the only difficulties to be surmounted befon sight at a distance beoomes a fact an meobanical and far from lnconquerable Control of tbe rays of light has been ob tained and the barrier between this anc tbe production of pictures before thi eye is but a slight one. Tbe apparatus by which so much bai been accomplished has been described by William Baxter, Jr., in the New Yorfc World, and from what it has already made possible one can draw conclnsiom as to what it will yet bring about. By the method of the maohlue the picture of the objeot to fce seen is Impressed upon a plate at tbe transmitting end of the instrument, transmitted by an electric current, and reproduced upon another plate at the receiving end. The dlstanoe to which it is transmitted has no efieot upon the picture. By usiug an adapta tion of the magic lanterns it Is pos sible to throw the picture upon a screen greatly magnified. Both transmitter and receiver are pro vided with a.revolving disk, located be hind the plate upon which the image is received and as close to it as oan be without touobing it. Each plate is a: arranged as to move from tbe center tc the outer edge of the disk and back. When the plate is in its central position a small hole,not larger than a pin point, comes directly over tbe center of tbe disk. In the transmitter back of this holo there is a piece of selenium. The selenium is the key to tbe solution of the problem, for it possesses the property ol changing its resistance to tbe flow of an electric current by the action of light upon it. In tbe dark the resistance ii great; ia a bright light the current pas ses through it freely. When the light passing through the plate is not strong uuo loauitaucB ui luu utiuiuuui is If the disk is moved so as to allow more light to pass throogb, the resistance of the selenium decreases. HOW A PICTURE IB TRANSMITTED. The electrio current whch passes through the piece of selenium repro ducer the picture at the receiving end of the instrrmont. The nuiount of light which can pass through any part of the plate ami fall upon the selenium is de pendent upon the “shading” at that point, and the resistance of the seleni um varies with the light which falls on it; so the current of electricity is regu lated by the lights and shadows of the picture on the plate of the transmitter. At the receiving end the eleotrio cur rent is passed around an electro-magnet made in the shape of a tube, so that light muy he passed through it, the force of the magnet being used to regulate the amount of light that passes through the tube. This magnet is fixed back of the revolviug disk of the receiver in such a position that the center of the tube is In line with the pin hole iu the sliding plate. A lamp is plaoed so that Its light will shine through the tube and the hole iu the sliding plate and fall npon the plate on which the picture is to be reproduced. The tube has two Nlool prisms, ons be ing placed at eacn end and at right angles to each other. These prisms are made of Iceland spar and possess the pioperty of teing transparent when in oertain positions, butt if arranged at right angles shut off the light as;effeot ually as if they were made of an opaque substanoe. Under the action of the magnetic foioe the property of these prisms to stop the light is destroyed or counteracted, and If the magnetism is strong enough the light will pass through as well as If there were no ob structlou. LIGHT VARIES WITH CURRENT. The power of the Nlool prisms varies with the strength of the magnet whioh incloses them; the strength of the mag net varies with the strength of the eleo tiro current which passes around it; so the light passing through the prisms varies with the eleotrlo current. The light falling on the plate of the rsoelver is thus made dependent upon that falling ou the plate of the transmitter. Jfor the variations in the current are effected by the aotlon of the light passing through i the picture impressed upon the plate of the transmitter. This light aots ou a piece of selenium in such a way as to change its resistance to the passage of the eleotrlo current and regulate its flow. The magnet at the receiving end varies its strength in accordance with the strength of tbs current passing aronnd it, and the amount of light that oan pass through the prisms and fall upon the plate M regulated by the force of the magnet. If the two disks in the transmitter and 1 the reoelver were kept stationary all 1 that one would sea at the receiving end would be a spot of light, inoreasing and 1 decreasing in brightness. But if the __ mawaIwa Knth a4 the same velocity, and at tbe same time the 1 sliding plate if given a sidewise motion, one would see a spiral line of light. If 1 the plate is fed out very slowly so that tbe hole will move outward it* own width while tbe disk is making one turn the spiral lines will be so close together tbat all tbe surface of the disk will be passed over after a sufficient number of revolutions bava been made to feed the bole all the way ont to the circumfereuce. To produce a photograph at tbe receiv ing end it would be sufficient for the two disks to revolve at the same velocity, beoause the spot of light, even if it moved slowly, would act upon a photo graphic plate. In order, however, that a pioture may be produced tbat can be seen by the eye the velocity with which the disks rotate would bo very great. If the eye could see instantly this apparatus would be ef no value for tbe purpose of reproducing visible pictures, but the eye does not see instantly. PICTURE IN THE RECEIVER, If tbe disks are revolved with snffiolent rapidity to enable the spot of light to travel from tbe center to the outside be fore tbe image impressed upon the eye has faded away the entire pioture will be seen. It may appear to be a difficult matter to make two machines hundreds of miles away rotate in nnlson with each other, but there are several ways in wbloh this may be done. The attainment of the verv hioh velocity needed is a far more difficult matter, bat some of tbe diffi culty in this direction can be removed by reducing the size of the pictures, and therefore of tbe disks. If these are made smaller fewer turns will be required for the spot of light to travel from tbe center to the circumference. Thera could be no objection to making the pictures small, because they oau be enlarged before reaching the eye. There fore the disks oan be made as small as one inch, or even smaller, and on ac count of this diminutive size can be to* tat ad at a high velocity with far lees difficulty than would seam possible. The greatest difficulty, perhaps, is the proper adjusting of the variation of the light in the transmitter to the vari ation of the strength of the eleotrio cur rent. It is simple enough to cause tbe ohanges in the intensity of tbe light fall ing upon the selenium strip to vary the Sow of the electric current, bat to so adjust the two tbRt the obacge in one may be ia exact proportion to the change in the other is quite a different matter The same is true of tbe action of the onrrent upon the magnet, and of tbe latter upon the aiuouut of light passing through the Niool prisms. In theory, at least, the Instrument la perfect. It is believed that it can be made eqnally perfect in practice. Tbe difficulties yet to bo overcome are slight In comparison with those already sur mounted Stopped the Excitement. When Charles Hutchinson, the eldest son of “Old Hutch,” but a very different sort of man, was president of the Chicago Stook Exohange, he calmed a tumult in the pits one day by ooming out upon a lit tle balcony above the orowd and standing with his hand upraised in an attitude half commanding, half entreating. Everybody stopped talking after a little while to see what the beloved “Charley” had to say. But all that he said was, Gentleman 1 gentlemen I” It turned the tide of affairs that day almost as effectively as closing the Stook Exchange might have done.— Boston Transcript.

But They Find the Fickle Publlo Hard to Please—The Dances of Mauy Peoples— How the Dance Originated In Some Re mote Age. New York, Oot,'80—Every year a num ber of agile and graceful gentlemen com posing the American Association of Pro fesors of Dancing come together, and after deep thought and considerable wrangling, of oourse, hi a polite way, deoide what the fashionable dances will be for the ensuing year. Each ons of these gentlemen is-an Inventor of the terpslohorean order, ana he attends tbe oondave equipped with elaborated drawn diagrams of the dance with which he expects ti oonvulee society later on. In nine oases out of ten this dance is never beard of again, although it may reeeive the liohest possible endorsement of the Amerloan Association of the Pro fessor! of Dancing. The fault i« not with tbe Association. The members cer tainly recognize a graceful dance when the dressmakers who have brought to light the gowns of the Empire. Some of the new danoes have, In their composition, a dash of the Fandango of Spain, a sprinkling of the Ssitarella of Rome, hint of Tarantell of Naples, and something of the llvelless of the Mazurka of Poland. But all of these have bad to be modified to please the conventionali ties of the drawing room, otherwise they would be more successful, from a spec tacular standpoint, thaD they are. Authorities on the history of the danoe say that its origin antedates that of muslo, which makes it very old Indeed, It is said that the first dancer oreated the art by trying to reproduoe with bis body the graceful motions of the trees swaying iu the winds. Others contend that primitive man was led into the art by imitating the antics of the wild ani mals around him. Thus the Savages of Kamaohatka have a bear dance, the native Antipodean* have a kangaroo dance, the aboriginals of New South Wales have a dog danoe, and various ani mals figure iu the danoes of our own Indians. In the ancient dances and the dances of savages, it was the custom to signify something, usually success in the chase, lore or. prnweei in war. It is claimed that the modification of the dance pro greases with a nation's advance In civil ization; thus in the French minuet the ohlef characteristic It polished and cul tured gallantry. America can hardly claim a national dance unless it be the Virginia reel. England is not muck better off, but it olaims the Bailors’ hornpipe as its own.

AN EXPERT HERE TO STUDY OUR WAYS OF DOING BUSINESS. His Visit May Lead to an Increased De mand for American Railway Machinery —Things of Interest about the Aus tralian System, Lieut. Col. Henry C. Stanley, M. Inst. C. K., Chief Engineer of Railways for Queensland, Australia, is in Amerioa, making a semi-official study‘of methods of railway oonstruotien and operation in the interests of the Colonial Government. He is the second Ambassador from the other side of the world who has visited this country on the same errand within a month, Prinae Michael Hilkoff, Rus sian Minister of Transportation, having being the first. Engineer Stanley’s observations, like those of Prince Hilkoff, are likely to re sult in the spread of American ideas, and Incidentally an Increased demand for American railway produots. Australia is on the eve of a period of railway ex tension and improvement. With the accomplishment of federation of the provinces the problem of seonrlng a uni form system of railways becomes of the first lDinnrtflTtnn. Dimpnaland nrn a f-.ha last to vote on tbe proposition, and, like tbe remaining provinces, agreed to the preliminary step of passing an enabling bill. Now, in order to mako federation a matter of commercial advantage, tbe means of Intercommunication between, tbe provlnoes must be amplified and im proved aocordiug to the beat modern sya (em. "There is uo uniform gangs in railway oonstructiou in Australia at preaent, said Mr. Stanley to a reporter for The New York Times. “In Queens land the gauge is 3 feet, 6 inches. In New South Wales it is 4 feet 8 1-2 inches. In Viotoria it is 5 feet 3 inohes. There are two gauges in South Auatrnlia, one 5 feet 3 inohes, where the roads conneot with those of Viotoria, and one 3 feet 6 inches, in West Australia the roads are built to the threo-feet-slx-lnob gauge. These differences do not affect the railway business so injuriously as they would later, for the reason that inter colonial freight is carried almost wholly by coast steamers. It is simply a matter of inconvenience tc passengers, who have to change cars at every change of gauge. We would, however, be very muob better off for the future If our railways con formed to the standard gauge, as they do in tbe United States and Canada. As you know, tbe railways of Australia are owned aud operated by the Govern ment. ‘‘The first Queensland road was opened for traffic in 1868.' Since ihRt time 2,600 miles have been built and equipped at a cost of about 17,000,001 pounds. The oost of the different lines has vnried greatly, The first seotiou of the Cairns Railway, for instanoe, cost 32,000 pounds a mile, while the last contract let on tbe west branch cf the Southern and Western Rail way cost but 2,000 pounds a mile. On the main line of the Southern and West ern there is a seotion that cost 20,000 pounds a mile. Roughly estimated, the railway debt of Queensland is 17,000,000 pounds. For this debt. Government de bentures have been floated In England. In the early days these debentures bore as high as 6 per cent interest; now they average 4 1-3 per cent. The roads earn over operating expenses a little over 3 per cent of the amont of their debt, lhe Government tax for maintenance is therefore, but a trifle over 1 per cent. "Both passenger and freight rates are considerably Ligber than in tbe United States and Canada. That is aocounted for in part by the sparse population,, there being less than half a million people in Queensland. The Government passes upon all questions of rates. They fluctuate somewhat In different parts of the provinoe, according to the amount of buiness done and service furnished. There are no commercial rivalries to complicate tbe question, as the roads all have their own separated territories, run ning hack into the interior from Bris bane, Tbrokl.ampton, and other sea board towns. American machinery already outs a considerable figure on the Australian railways. We regard tbe American built locomotives as better adapted than tbe English for our use. They ere less Qrlgid than the English |type. Many of them ore now in use, and more are in course of construction. As for tbe rest of the equipment, it is mostly of Australian make, though we are still obliged to buy our rails in England. We are striving for greater economy In oonstruotlon, and the object of my'present visit is to 'gath er information which may be useful Id that direction. Do yon find Government control of railways a source of corruption in poli tics?” “Not in the nllgbtest degree,” replied Mr. Stanley. The whole railway busi ness of Australia is done under a striot system of the civil service that make; corruption next to impossible*. We have a Minister of Railways,'but the working management is vested by Parliament in a Commissioner appointed by the Gov- I ernor in Council. Tbe Commstssioner is secure in his tenure of office, beoause he oan be only removed by the vote of both houses of Parliament., He has full pow ers of employment. Under him are the Chief Engineer, the General TraSio Manager, and the looomotive engineer. Applicants for employment ore required to pass examinations, down to the gunmls IrainmeD, and laborers. In the oase of the latter, the examinations are mainly physical, although ;the candidate must be able to read aud write. “Class privileges on the Australian roads are striotly held lu check. Passes are issued to the members of Parliament and those aotually engaged in the rail way service. Hallway employes get ‘privilege tickets,’ which allow them and the members of their families to travel at one-fourth the regular fam. There is also a sysem of 'leave tiokete, good on all the Australian railways, whiob are given to employes for use on their regular annual vacations of a fort night. This is the limit of privileges accorded by the roads. “All the Queensland main lines,” said Mr. Stanley, “are likely to be further extended into the interior, to develop the anttle and sheep raising industries aud afford better facilities for conveying stock to the freezing works which have beeu ereoted at several of our ports and from which large quantities of frozen meat are exported to England.

MOISSAN MADE DIAMONDS With Ilis Electric Furnace Before a New York Audience. Silicia Volatilized Into a Violet Gas—Bril- I liant Demonstration by the Distiu- gulslieii French Chemist at the College of Physicians and Snrgoons. Before au appreciative audience that completely filled the large lecture room ot the College of Physicians and Bur geons M. Henri Moissau of the Institute of France and of the Academic dos fc'oienoes, who is known throughout the world for his chemical investigations with very high temperatures and his re searches into the nature and applications of the carbides, delivered a lecture Tues day night on the uses of the eleotric fur nace and the results obtained by it. ac companied by some brilliant experiments, says the New York Bun. The audience consisted ohiefly of persons interested in chemistry, students, professors, elec tricians, and engineers, with a sprink ling of ladies, and followed the speaker with close attention during the hour and a half that the locture lasted. Al. Moissan spoke iu French, and while some of his hearers understood his words, the rest understood the chemioal points he was expounding. M. Moissan is a man of about forty-fivo years, of medium height and slender build. His face is a striking one, his hair and beard are jet blaok, streaked with gray, and his smile is very plaasant. He spoke easily and unaffectedly, in a clear, melodious voioe. He explained that while the carbon compounds have been studied with great care by organic ohemista during the past fifty years, the study of the different stages through which carbon passes had been comparatively neglected. In his endeavor to obtain pure carbon, the ordinary amorphous carbon, lampblack, containing from 10 to 15 per cent, of imnnritifis. ho had found it nanesaarv to use very high temperatures ami had suo ceeded in obtaining one form of pure car bon, graphite. High temperature alone, however, would not yield the crystallzed form of carbon, diamond. He set to work to find out the composition of diamonds by reducing some to ashes. In all, whether they came from the Cape of Good Hope or from Brazil, he found iron, save in one very pure greon hard stone from Brazil. By the study of the nature of the ground and of tbs geologi cal formation In which Cape diamonds aTe found, he found that the earth, be sides graphite and microscopic dia monds, always contained granite. Granite Is the product of great pressure and this fact led him to the idea that diamonds might also be obtained by pressure. As oast iron inoreases In vol ume in passing from the liqnid to the solid state, he was led to helieve that if an element of carbon were enolosed in a globule of oast iron that was cooling it would be subjected to the requisite pressure. In order to obtain a heat sufficiently greut and at the same time to be able to measure it, he devised the simple form of electrlo furnace with whloh the ex periment last evening was performed. It consists of two ol cy bricks, the lower one about eighteen inches square and a foot deep, the upper one about six inches deep. In the lower one is hollowed out an elliptical bole to contain the crucible, while two oarbou electrodes pass from the cavity to the exterior, where they are oonnectod with the electrical battery. The upper brick serves for a oover. M. Moissan first sprinkled the cavity with magnesia in order to prevent the forma tion of calcium carbide. He then placed it in the crucible, into whiob he had put soft iron fiiiigi and charcoal, WOMAN’ GREATEST ENEMY. Laura McHenry, in the Ladies' Home Journal, says: The headache par excellence or rather ad libitum among women is the “sick headache,” and by that I find is meant a headache which is attended in any stage of its action by a nailCPU tifViirli in/'poncnr tit-ifil vomiting ensues, when the pa tient’s skin becomes naturally moist again. And yet every woman can lessen the number and frequency of her headaches by assisting nature by natural means. The Carlsbad Sprudel Salt, which is evaporated from the natural waters of Carlsbad, taken early in the morning before breakfast, and if necessary at bedtime (about half a teaspoonful dis solved in a tumblerful of water), will supply these means. It is an alterative and elimina tive remedy, which dissolves ten acious bile, allays irritation, and removes obstructions by aiding nature, and not by sudden and excessive irritation, as most ca thartics do. It is of great benefit in temporary and habitual con stipation, liver and kidney dis eases, chronic catarrh of the stomach and bowels, rheumatism and gout, etc., and should be used early in the morning before breakfast, specially during the spring and summer months. Care must be exercised to obtain the genuine article, which is im ported in round bottles and has the signature of Eisner Men delson Co., Sole Agents, New York, on the bottle. covered it with tile top brick, and turned b on the current. k In three minutes the iiidicotorjshowed a temperature of 2500 degrees Fahrenheit. The clay was boiling and flaming before e the eyes oi the audience when M. 0 Moissan put his hand on the top brick ami kept it there to show that the heat did not come through. a At the end of ten minutes the prooess g was complete. M. Moissan lifted the top with his hands,though its under side was a white hot mass of flame, and after bolding it up for a while dropped it into s some water. c TV e crucible be took out with tongs and also dropped into cold water. He c explained that tho first time he had i cooled the mass in that way he had tak- c en every possible precaution, expecting an explosion, Init that alter repeating tlie process three hundred times without c an accident he felt that the audience I was safe. 6 On breaking tho crucible he took out an ingot the bizo of a leaden bullet and 1 explained the processes by which the iron c would liuve to he rim mated in order to get at tho crystalized onrbon that was i probably within it. The diamond will have no commercial value, as tho largest he has succeeded in making is only one millimetre in diameter. j The form of the crystals varies accord ing to tho method used in cooling. 1 When water is used the diamond is often 1 full of black specks, which jewellers call i crapauds “pogs,” and which detract from the value of a stone. M. Moissan was delighted to disoover these spots, as they proved to him that he was fol lowing in the track of nature. Whan molten lead is used to cool the crucible the crystal takes the shape of a small rectangular flgure, sometimes with the sharp edges rcunded, but when mer cury is used the crystal is a regular oc tahedron. Some of the last, when ex posed to the air, split, as has happened to some of the diamonds found at the Cape. This is an additional proof to.M. Moissan that the diamond is produoed under strong pressure. His conclusion Is that at the ordinary temperature carbon does not liquefy, but changes at once from a solid into a gas, always taking tho graphite form, and that onlv under pressure aoes it take the ‘‘liquid” form, diamond. The rebt of the lecture was taken up with a hurried review of tho other pro ducts obtained by M. Moissan by means of the electrio furnace, metallic oliroml um, molybdenum and tungsten. Tnese, with many of the oxides supposed to be irreduoible which have yielded to the furnace, be Imd on the table in glass jars. Ho spoke particnlary of the excel- 1 V HUIUlim-n Ul JiJUlJ UUUIIUUl DtCCl, He ran over the properties of the long list of carbides disc#zored by him, and produced acetyline «as before the audi ence by putting some lithium carbide into a high jar of water, whioh thereupon bubbled up after which he tonched the gas off with a match, produccing a brilliant flame. It smoked so much that after two minutes the jar was removed, and duiiog the rest of the evening smoky filaments kept falling upon the spectators. The last experiment was the volatiliz ing of silica, one of the latest of M. Moissan’s scientific achievements. This was done in the electric furnace, a glass globe plaoed over it catching the beauti ful violet gas as it esoaped. At the end of the lecture, which was frequently interrupted bv applause, Prof. R. Ogden Doremus proposed a vote of thanks to the lecturer. M. Moissan, having carried ont the mission whioh brought him to America, attendance at the Princeton celebration as the repre sentative of the Institute of France, will sail for home on Saturday. A DASHING YOUNG BLONDE Who is Puzzling New York Merchants and Detectives. There is at present In the city of New York a beautiful and olever young woman who could furnish enough material ont of her own experience to write a whole volume on ‘‘How to Swindle Trades People,” if she oared to glve.it, but it is not ikely that she will ever do this until she comes Into the clntohes of the law, whioh are ready for her, and has to do so. On the records at the Chief of Police’s office she is known only ae “Jane Doe,” because that is the official name given by the law to unknownipooplo who are do ing wrong, but who have escaped the law. Her real name is not known, bat as she has posed to her own pecuniary advantage within the last few months as both “Ethel” Sutro, the “daughter” of .Mrs. Theodore Sutro, of 20 Fifth avenue, and “Elsie” Clews, daughter of Banker Heniy Clews, of No. 9 West Thirty-fourth street, it ie evident that she knows good society and how to con duct herself as a member of it. She Is a beautiful young woman, all those who have come in contact with her say, with sweet blue eyes and a blonde coil of hair. She dresses exquis itely, and has all thu mannerisms of an educated and cultivated young sooiety girl. The consequenoe is that when she walks into the big jewelry stores and metropolis, and runs bills "to be charged to Mr. Cletvs,” uo questions are asked, as a rule, and she gets what she wants. I Her plan of procedure, after selecting what she fancies, is as unique as her whole csreer seems to have been from 1 first to last. She orders the goods deliv erert at Mr. Clews’ number, and then hurries around to the house in her hand- j some equipage. As the messenger or i delivery man comes up the step with the bundle of jewelry or other purchases, l she meets him, coming down, and us- i nally says she is in haste to go for a i drive, and will taka the things in the carriage. If the delivery man suspsots t nothing, ne Is apt to let her take the i packages, sign for them, and drive i away, it is needless to say that Mr. r Clews dees not know the young woman i who is palming herself off as his daugh- 1 ter, and he la as anxious to oatch her bb i the police are. Last year this dashing blonde adventnr- ess got countless packages of Bilks and velvets, and this year she opened her campaign even mi re successfully. She ordered a handsome diamond tiara for her hair from a prominent jeweler’s store and a diamond brooch and bracelet. All these were sent around, aooordlng to orders, to Mr. Clows’s home, at 3 o’clock promptly, as “Mis* Clews” was going j away she said. The jeweler worked all night to have the handsome affairs Bnishnd, and they amounted in all to Rbout $1,350 in bard cash. The porter J says that he met the young woman at the door, and she asked to take them herself, but he insisted on the house- keeper receipting for them, and on this •'Miss Clewa” vanished up Fifth avenue i Bfore he could ring and get the house- c eeper out. L •‘lliss Doe” then went at her woru lu wnest and ordered from various firms indy, a fleur-de-lis ounmeled watch, six 1 nndsome huts, a large auiouutof music, l nd other goods, getting away with a t oodly portiou of the stuff as already i xplained Now thore is a warrant out t >r her arrest, and the detectives of the c tores and the police force feel they are t n the right traok, as ilie candy mer- bants’ clerks declare the young woman i the same one who last year orderBd f andy to be charged to Mrs. fciutro. I But whether she is a olever swindler 1 r a plain kleptomaniac seems to be a t ratter hard to decide, for last year s everal merchants had their goods, or- ered by ‘‘Miss Sutro, seut back, no- t ompanied by an anonymous communi- ation, stating that tbo young woman 1 as a mania for stealing. The letter was i igned “A Sorrowing Mother.” ‘‘Miss Doe,’’whoever she may be,Is fur- i ishing plenty of grounds for ‘conjecture l moug the polioe and detectives as to 1 pho she Is, and when finally lauded, as he will ultlmatly be, It wilt be of inter- I st to society in general to disoover er real name and who she really is. THE HOME Halloween. Halloween parties are pleasant gather- ngs to whioh only good friends who are rell acquainted should be invited. There i s less formality tban at most other oclal affairs, and the stranger is apt to 1 ie out of place In the lively celebration, table Talk gives some good suggestions or games as follows: Hazelnut Propheoy.—Give every guest hree hazelnuts. These they proceed to 1 ame for three favorites, and put them n a row on the grate or hearth. The nes that burst or jump will be faith- 1 sse, those whioh burn or blaze, forever 1 rue Game of three Sauoers.— This la a 1 ery old test in the direction of fortune 1 elllng. The guests are blindfolded in urn. Three sanoers are placed on a 1 able, one filled with water, one with 1 arth, and the third empty. Each per- 1 on triei to touch one of these; the one 1 loldiug water signifies a sea voyage and 1 n early marriage, the empty one a life if stnlge blessedness, and the one earth- 1 llled, immense wealth. 1 The Apple and Candle Spin.—Suspend a tick tied in the middle from the ceiling; in one end fasten an apple, on the other i lighted oandle, and by turning the tring set it spinning round and round. Jaoh person endeavors to catoh the ap ple with bis or her mouth, but fate 1 eem to favor the candle. Prizes are ;iven to those sucoesaful in scouring the ruit. Hymen’s Dumb Cake.—This dainty bit f cookery must be accomplished within he hour preoeding midnight. The iris eaoh take a handful of flour, a inch of salt and sheet of white paper. Prom these (using water to mix it), hey make a dough. On the oake she ashlons, every maiden marks with a ew pin, the initials of her lover’s name. 1 'he oakes are then placed on the hearth nd turned once. Through the entire irooess of preparing and baking not a »ord most be spoken. When the clock trikes twelve a young man will oome nd turn one of the cakes, which indl ateg that he will marry the damsel who nade It. Hovr to Breathe. A writer in The Houeekeeper telle of ler successful experiments Id the art if proper breathing, to which too little ittentlon is generally paid: “I have ured myself of nervous headache, neu algla in the face, stiffness from over vork, indigestion, oold in the head and nsomnia just by breathing. We are not nade strong by our food unless at the lame time air is brought into the Bys em to unite witb it in combustion. If he air is impure, or is Insufficient in [uantlty, the blood stagnates tn the UDgs, the muscles become feeble, the di ;estive organs weaken and we are a latnral prey to whatever miorobes may le searching for a suitable habitation, t is a well known fact that indigestion esults from insufficient breathing quite is often as from other causes, and that ^digestion 1s one of the greatest foes to be person of consumptive tendencies. 3111 OB 1 uavu xcnruou uu uimuno uij ayi iotite has become better, and 1 reall; lelleve 1 could digest anything. “1 inherit n tendency to wakefulness, vhich 1 have cured lu the same way.

I tried to lave inhalations and exhalations of qual length, and to think of nothing xcept the breathing. Every breath noved the muscles of the abdomen both n coming and going.

The meat and ts juices do not boil Ht all. because heir boiling point is higher than that f water, and, curiously enough, it is bo rousted leg of mutton whose juices o boil iu the intense heat of cooking, 'knt is a cbemioAl faot which you will nd out with further study. Another bing few cooks believe is that .however iolently water boils its temperature is uly at the boiling point. There are omo mechanical efiteotB in cooking that ou oan get by vehemently boiling wat r, but its actual cooking power is no renter. The walloping of the water on y makes steam, which evaporates in the ,ir of the kitchen. An easy proof of this is to oook two ike pieces of meat the same length of ime, one over a slow fir that keeps the rater just boiling, the other over a con tantly vigorous Are. You oan do this ly using the range and the gaa or oil tove. Both pieces of meat will he equal y well done. Uount Romford, the ex lerimenter in cooking, found this ont arly in this century, but he did not enow that meat, eggs and Ash not only vonld oook, but would he better flavored f kept in water below the boiling point. Put an old fowl in a pot of actually boil ng water, and keep the water at this joins for from five to eight minutes to jardeu the albumen of the juices, so as ;o form a sort of orust, and shut in these lavoring juices. Then draw the pot a ittle oil the fire nnd keep it just sim pering—bubbling at one edge, or, to be cientiAoally exact, at about 200 degrees, t will take twice as long as ordinary joiling to oook the fowl, but those who lat it will not think your experiment in hemistry unsuccessful. This is just as true about eggs, except hat their albumeo coagulates mors luiokly. The whites cooked in this way rill be tender, jelly like, and easy for he stomach to marage, but tbe heat bo lowly diffused will also cook the yolk ufficiently. Putting an egg into literal y boiling water rnaiea the white horny md unhealthful. If you put fish into boiling water the iesh not only tears apart, but the flavor s lost, and then the fibres become hard tad insipid. THE CRIME OF THE CAMPAIGN. n answer to the call, which had been dnly writ an signed, lame forty-seven earnest men who had a sin gle mind, lame forty-seven men who cried with voloe unanimous, ‘Name us hia name, an we’ll proceed to nulli fy the cuss.” tfever before was Cripple Creek so violently stirred; Sever was such assemblage in the Bar de Early Bird, tfever such pallor of the cheek, such gleamln of the eye, Such marked determination to have freemen's rights or die.

It Is not strong enough to resist the changing weather. The digestipn is poor. The bowels are clogged. The blood flows sluggishly through the veins. The action of the vital organs Is fee ble. The system Is unhealthy, And you catch cold. That is why a cold Is called a filth dis ease. Perfect health means perfect clean liness, especially Inside. Colds can be prevented by keeping the stomach right. The digestion right. The blood right. The health right. Purltana will do this and more. It has a healing and purifying effect on the whole mucous track. The stomach and bowels are corrected and given new vigor by Purltana. The liver and kidneys are stirred ui to do their work. These organs are made to work right When they work right they purify the blood. The dyspeptic is subject to colds. The man with a strong stomach la not hurt unless a house falls on him. What do colds do? The answers are many. They Introduce consumption. Also pneumonia. And death in many forms. At this time of year they are espe cially liable to affect the stomach and bowels. That’s strange. They start from poor digestion. They make the digestion worse. Cramps come. And strange stomach dlsordera All are dangerous. All can be avoided. Common sense shows how. Purltana Is nature’s remedy for the stomach. So Puritana renews, through the stomach, the whole system. Another word about Puritana. It is a vegetable mixture. The prize formula of Professor Dixi Crosby of Dartmouth medical college. It contains no poisons, no opiates, no narcotics. No opium, for instance. A child can be trusted to use it. It can be safely put In general use. Is it still effective? Ask the people. Its history is marked by success af ter success. A DEALER IN BEEF. W. H. Bezanson Has Learned by Experience. The manager of the Chicago Beef company, W. H. Bezanson, who is lo cated at 88 Blackstone street, Boston, is one of the best known men in the market district. He says: “My wife has for many years been a very sick woman, suffering from nu merous troubles of the stomach. She lost her appetite entirely, had no en ergy, was so weak and used up as to be totally unfit for exertion of any kind. She was at all times so easily ex cited that this led to a species of trem bling, which promised serious results. I tried doctors without end, but to no effect, and we were both utterly dis couraged. Some time last spring I bought my first bottle of Puritana, and my wife used it. A change was notice able almost from the first using of Puritana, and it alone has put her on her feet again. Puritana has done what everything else failed to do, and I regard my wife’s cure as very re markable.” (Signed) W. H. BEZANSON. Mr. Bezanson is not more enthusi astic than George F. Dunning of Fan euil market, whose life was saved by Puritana. Every patient tells a story of success and cure. Puritana is the prize formula of Dr. Dixi Crosby of Dartmouth college. It makes the stomach right. That’s why it makes the health right.

Rev. t Wayne Wolcott. INTERVIEWED BY A REPORTER EOR THE INDEPENDENT. He Tells of His llecovery from ail Illness Thai Threatened to Incapacitate Him— lb Now Able to Attend to His Duties— Has Nothing ltut Words of Praise for the liemedy He Used. From the Independent, Auburn, X. Y. It having come to the knowledge of cite editor of the Cayuga County Inde pendent of Auburn, that Kev. N. Wayne Wolcott, paitor of Baptist church, at Fleming, E. Y., had been cured of nervous prostration by the use of Dr. William’s Pink Pilla for Pale People, ho Bent a reporter to that town to ascertain (rom Mr. Wolcott the truth of the re port, aud receive from his owu lips u Hatemeut of his case aud how he had been benefited. The reporter found Mr. Wolcott to be a gentleman some 40 or 45 years of age, In good health, and active in his minis terial duties. He is highly esteemed as a pastor aud a citizeu, and is a gentle man of strict integrity, whose statements can he implioitly relied upon as trnthful iu every respect and devoid of exaggera tion. In reply to questions as to the truth of the report that he had been ben efited by Piuk Pills he made the follow ing statement: “Eight years ago, while pastor of the Baptist Church in Covert, 21. Y., 1 was stricken with nervous pros tration. During the winter of 1887-8, I tad oonduoted revival services and de livered a series of lectures iu addition to my work as pastor, aud became com pletely run down. I could not work, aud felt as though my days were numbered. I tried a dootor, but did not receive much aid from him. At this time I received a oall from the eburoh at 'fully, N. Y. At first I deter mined not to aooept it. for I knew that in my weak oonditlon I could not do the work. But hoping against hope, I finally decided to try, and accordingly went there. My health continued to fall, and I grew weaker, and 1 thought 1 would b.n tn vIta nn entirely vnv work fnr God, which I love. Just then, 1 owever, the sun broke through the oloudg. Mr. Tallman, of Tully, whom I shall always remember as a benefactor, recommended me to try Dr Williams' Pink Pills. He had tried them and they had done him good. As a last resort 1 tried them. The •Sect was wonderful and Immediate, From the very first box my system be gan to tone up, my blood became rich, and once more 1 became the etrong and vigorous man I was before my health failed. “My labors, if you know of the labor of a country parson, you cau readily be lieve, were very heavy. I had not been able to work, and was losing my interest in the cause of Christ, but like magio my old vigor returned, and for three more years I labored there and raised 14,000 toward building up the Church In addition to my regular duties. All my friends say of me that I aA a very baidworking man, but in covert I could not work. After I went to Tully aud tbs pills had restored my health, I think I may say that I merited that name. For three or four years after 1 left Tully I did evangelistic work. Two yearB ago I came hero. Since then I have never had any return of my old trouble, but am in good health, strong and active, with no symptom of nervous prostrntion, which was caused by over work. It le a homely expression, but 1 felt like a “wrung-out dishcloth with out any starch in it.” I owe my present good health to Pink Pills, and want most heartily to com mend the magio remedy to every one troubled with nervous prostration or physical weakness.” As a parting remark Mr. Woloott said: “I have often thought that in return for what Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have done for me, I would like to become a medioal missionary to make known their mer its.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, 50 oeuts a box, or six boxes for $2.60 (they are never sold in bulk or by the 100), by addressing Dr. Williams’ Medioine Company, Soheneo tadv.

QUAKERESS AND LAWYER Mrs. Titus-Werner Is Receiver for a liquor Saloon, AMD THE SOCIETY OF FRIENDS IS GREATLY DISTURBED. Mrs. Werner Says It Is Purely a Matter of Busiuess and That She Shall Not Re linquish It—She Is Prominent Among New York’s Women Lawyers. (New York Bun.) Tne Quakers of this city are very muoh disturbed just now over the appointment to the reoelvershlp of a saloon of Mrs. Melle Stanleyetta Titus-Werner, the well-known woman lawyer. Mrs. Weiner oomes of an old Quaker family, has been an attendant at the Friends’ meeting house in Stuyvesant Bquare for years, and, although an extremely up-to-date woman herself, has occupied a promi nent position among the Friends for a long time. The receivership name to her as it might have to any lawyer, and, although Mrs. Weruer regards it as strict ly iu the line of her duty as a member of the bar to accept and carry cut the work intrusted to her by the Supreme Court the Friends think differently about It. They are greatly agitated over the mat ter, for a oonneotiou iu any way with the liquor traffic by one of their number is regarded as a violation of first princi ples uy the Quakers. It will he interest ing to watch for the result of Mrs. Wer-‘ ner’s little controversy with the Society of Friends, for she has fully made up her mind to go ou with her work as re celver, despite the opinions of the Friends, She has never wavered for a moment in this determination, she as sured a reporter for the Snn last evening, although it grieved her V8ry much to be unable to make her friends of the Quaker faith come around to her way of think ing. The dismissal of Mrs. Werner from the Friends’ Church would create a sensa tion, as she has been the most progres sive woman of the time among the Quakers, and has been very much praised by her relatives and friends for her ener gy and ability^. The Quakere have been immensely proud of her ever since sbe was admitted to the bar. They have never objected to her law practice or to the interest sbe has shown in things po litical, but they draw the line at the liquor traffle, and are opposed to her having anything to do with it, either as receiver or in any other capacity. Their disapproval has oome to Mrs. Werner in a way whioh there is no mis taking. Several of the most prominent Quakers in the city have spoken gently, but firmly, to her about the matter, but they have not succeeded in shaking her determination in the least. Mrs. Werner regards the appointment as a good chance to show what she can do in this branoh of the law, and she means to stick to it. It was Justice MacLean who made the departure of appointing women re ceivers in business litigations. He ap pointed three severa I days ago, among them Mrs. Werner, who is highly thought of by most of the judges. The case which Mrs. Werner was ordered to take ohaige of was that of Louis Strauss, a saloon keeper at 221 East 121st street. Mr. Strauss fell into debt some time ago, and one of his creditors, Julius Engel, brought suit against him for some money. Engel got a judgment for 187.97, but when the Sheriff attempted to exe cute judgment and attach the saloon and properties contained therein Mrs. Strauss stepped forward and deolared that the saloon belonged to her. Strauss admitted that this was so, and showed by papers that he had sold the business to her some time before for SI 50. As receiver of Strauss’s business and estate Mrs. Werner will be able to make a legal inquiry into the faots. Mr. En gel has declared that the transfer of the property by Strauss to his wife was made with a view to cheating him out of the ___s- „e i. 4 a.— _„ee ~~-J other creditors who might sue for the amounts due them. If Mrs. Werner finds this to be the case she will bring

Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound will correct all this trouble as sure as the sun shines. That Bearing-down Feeling, causing pain, weight, and backache, is instantly relieved and permanently cured by its use. It is wonderful fat Kidney Complaints in either sex. I i j X I suit to set the judgment aside. The job is an unprofitable and laborious one, and of a sort not ooveted by lawyers. To do the thing successfully requires mucn pa tience end considerable technical skill Mrs. Werner will have to make herself conversant with the liquor business in order to make her work successful, and there is little doutt that the job was given to her, as well as the receiverships to the other two women lawyers, largoly as a test of their ability In that branch of the law. Naturally this new departure on the part of a Supreme Court Justice was much disoussed at the time, nod Mrs. Werner’s appointment caused much com ment when It became knovru. The newspapers spoko of it and in that way the Friends heard that one of their num ber had been ordered by the Supreme Court to take charge of the business of a saloon keeper. They felt confident that they would read the next day that Mrs. Werner had declined the honor. They didn't read any such thing, however, and the days went by without any indi cation from Mrs. Werner that she would not do the work imposed upon her by the Court. Then it was that the matter oame up for discussion at a meeting in the Friends' Meeting House in Stuyvesunt square. The unanimous opinion was that Mrs. Werner ought to decline to serve as receiver for Strauss. There was nothing formal about the discussion, and no talk of notifying Mrs. Werner of the sentiment of the moating. It was simply an informal expression of opinion, and nevertheless Mrs. Werner heard of it almost immediately, and later when she met the Rev. Ur. Phoebe Hannaford the subject came up between them. Miss Hannaford was at the meeting in the Friends' Meeting House when Mrs. Werner's appointent was calkod about, and in response to Mrs. Werner’s ques tions she said in the gentle tone peouliar to the (junkers; “Thee must do as thy own conscience tells then, and not be wavered by the thoughts ot others, sister. I think thee oan reason for thyself. Thou art a law yer now, and in the business of reason ing for others. Tbee should know the right path.” Mrs. Werner told Miss Hannaford that she was satisfied as to the propriety of her keeping the appointment, but said that she had heard that the Friends were opposed to It. “And what has thee thought of the argument?" “I have deoided to keep the receiver ship,” replied Mrs. Werner. “I have been appointed by a learned Judge to •n eminent place, and >t is purely a le gal proceeding and has nothing to do with the private life of anybody." It was at a later meeting of the Sool ety of Friends that the matter came up again. Mrs. Werner was present at this meeting, and an old friend of hers, one of the best known Quakers in the oity, spoke to her about It. This was Mrs. Anna Jaokson, who said: “Tbee must make up thy mind quick ly, sister, as to the right of this thing. The Friends do not wish thee to be con nected with the liquor business or a liquor saloon. The Friends will not feel easy about thee mixing with suoh things. a Jonah Bees, another prominent Quak er, spoke to Mrs. Werner about the mat ter, too. There wasn’t the slightest ill feeling displayed in any of this talk. The Quakers believe in individuals not ing ou their own ooascienoes, but think all questions open to dispute, and do not hesitate to express their opinions. Mrs. Jackson and Mr. Bees had no hesitation in telling Mrs. Werner they disapproved; Mrs. Werner had none in telling them that ahe was of a cliCerent way of think ing. At any rate, us the matter now stands, the Quakers are opposed to Mrs. Werner accepting the appointment, and Mra. Werner is determined to do so. Mrs. Werner is a good looking woman, as years of age. She first nttraotad public notice in 1891, wheD she was gradnated at the head of the woman’s law olass of the University of the City of New York, i In October, 1891, she entered the men’s law olass, ooDsisting of IS men and five women, and won the faculty prize of $100. She was graduated In June, 1893, ranking fourth in her olass, despite eight wnnkn of illness in at: h«fnr« t.h a avamu nations. For a year she was a clerk in the office of J. H. Hildreth, and In June 1894, she passed the bar examination be fore Justice Van Brunt, standing fourth in a class of eighty-eight, and winning the honor of being the first woman ad mitted to the bar in New York. In Maroh.1894, she was admitted to practice in the U nited States Circuit Court hero, and later the same privilege was extend ed to her in the United States Court of Appeals. She was the first woman to get the privilege in either of these Federal courts. Mrs. 'Werner married Edgar S. Werner, the publisher, at the Friends’Meeting House on June 3. Later the same day the oouple were civilly married by Mayor Strong. Mrs. Warner, besides being a practising lawyer, is now a lecturer for the Young Friends’ Aid Association and professor of municipal law in the woman’s law class of the University of the City of New York. Paraffin Wax. Probably few persons are aware of the immense amount of paraffin wax now manufactured and consumed, pronounced, indeed, one of the most valuable of the many products of petroleum, much of this Importance being due, doubtless, to the jwrfection at present reached in the metb ods of production. In the improved proc ess now pursued the wax distillate is redis tilled for the purpose of reducing to the desired gsavlty and crystallizing the wax, this operation being known as cracking, and following this the oil is frozen by the same means that are in vogue for making artificial ico, the machines thus used by re finers of petroleum being of very large freezing capacity and of the most soientlflo construction. After the oil ig frozen It is forced Into the filter presses with very pow erful pumps, and by these presses the wax is converted into a solid cake, while the oil flows into pane, being then transferred into thasun bleachers or filters ae wanted.

THE CIRCUS DIALECT. A Veteran’s Recital of Old Time Ex periences. Told In Words That Are Peculiar to His Calling and Which the Ordinary Mortal Cannot Understand—Hut the Youthful listener Obtains Definitions. A veteran circus man wandered Into the tentofono of the “great and only” com binations which appeared In Booties ter not long ago, and as a rehearsal was In prog ress he entered into an easy conversation with such of the performers as had time to converse. "Of course you sawdust hoppers have more room to dress In,” he remarked, “than we had in the old days, and you have better lights and all that. I remem ber one night at Logansport when the lights oil went out when the show was half over, and we had to dress In the dark. Some one had put water In the coll oil and stolen all the candles. And the crowd roared, and there were a lot of fights, and it woe a moonlight night, and the boss squeeze had them rip off the hood, and they finished the performance by moon light. Bnt it left a bad name, for all the 'grafters’ and ‘guns’ were so busy they couldn’t tell whether they were touching jays or people that belonged with the show.” “Made good money then, didn’t youf” asked the equilibrist “Yes, good money. I was a wise man then—worked hard all the time for good wages and never had a cent. There wasn't half a dozen men in the business who oould turn a double. Of course, there were lots of hair grabbers, but I guess I was as good as any of them. I had a side partner one season. His name was Winn, and he was a candy butcher. He worked that for a blind, but he was a short change man on the regular. More than once they told him UV U MUUUOX UUU UQ UUWU||UV UO TV no next, and he didn’t pay any attention. He got so careless I quit him, and then he took up with a new man aa we came into Columbus, and a ‘joey bay' was coining into the tent with a broad in his hand, and the new man thought be was a ‘reu ben, and he touched him for his roll, and the ‘Joey’ didn’t get over kicking till his leg was out of joint. “Couldn’t he get his ‘soft’ back again?’’ asked one of his hearers. “No. We didn’t have any ‘ollie,’ and the fixer had arranged so that all the offi cers in Columbus should go to sleep and stay there till the show got out of the town. He did his work too well to suit the ‘Joey.’ But it made so much trouble that we never saw that gun again till we struck Wheel ing In return trip in the fall. And then he was a side show blower, with a doable and slide trick that made him lots of mon ey. “There was where we lost ‘Peachy,*” continued the old circus man after a pause. “He was the making of the greatest of all hair grabbers, I think. He made up with a tart, the wife of one of the spanglers— she did the snake act in one of the side tops—and they doped with the plug. “Next season I made aiming at faro out west and was gay as a bird of paradise when we came to Hannibal. I was smok ing IS cent punks—and they were punks for that money in those days, I tell you. And I hada silk‘mush,’ with a gold handle and steel ribs—paid $8 (or It at St. Joe— and I hid It under box that night at Han nibal, and some one reached it and oopped it while I was hunting my rozln. I couldn't chase him, but the dame that sews the cos tumes did, and he stepped In a grummet Where the menagerie top had been all day and sprained his ankle. The ‘mush’ was broken when she brought It book, but she told me his ‘glimmers’ were as blaok as his top piece. But I blowed myself all the way up to Independence, and by the time we got there I had to book my spark. Good times t” And he chuckled enjoyably. Funny thing, said one of the aorobata. “He brings up the old style show so plain ly I can see it again as It was when I was a boy.” “And many a year before,” Interjected the ringmaster. “Yes, many a year before. I remember once In the old days the layer out went ahead and railed the readout of Niles, and some kids took op all the stioks, and when our wagon oame along we had to hunt for the elephant tracks It was raining, and we couldn’t find anything, and we got lost” “Niles,” said a younger performer re Ci rni„__v-_ >.a _ ui.i_ from KickervUle.
