STRANGE STORY OF PoLANDER-A Po-
lander, whose life had been a series of mis-
fortunes, has just arrived at Paris under the
following circumstances: In 1880 he was
exiled to Siberia for political crimes, whence
he escaped to Montreal, arriving there in
complete poverty. After eight years of mis-
cradle life there he sailed to Brazil, and went
to work in the diamond mines, and from
Brazil to California, where in a short time
be collected small fortune in gold. In
1863 he returned to Europe and Joined in the
struggle for his country's independence.
lie was again captured aId transported for
life TO Nevtchinsk in the north of Siberia
In 1865 he found in the bed of river mass
es of melted quartz mixed with iron ore
His Brazilian and California experience now
came in play, and prosecuting his search he
discovered and secured diamonds to the
value of S4O, 900, and near the close of sum.
mer he found one large diamond, weighing
10 carats, and worth, had it proved perfect,
at least S250.O0O. He resolved to make his
escape, if possible, through the Chinese EN-.
pre. The smaller diamonds he secured in
belt about his person, and to make sure of
the larger one, he forced out one of his ewes,
and in the vacant orbit hid the highly priced
Jewel On his way through China he was
robbed by bandtti of his belt and small
diamonds, save few which he sold to pro-
cure the necessaries of life After many
dangers he arrived at Calcutta and sailed
for Mdrsellles. He is now in Paris and in
great misery and poverty, not being able to
sell his Jewel, as it proves to be filled with
black spots, and almost worthless.

ARTIFICIAL EYEsIGHT-SINGuLARIF IF TRUE.
The Revue Franchise says that French
physician, DR.. Banchet, having arrived at
tie conclusion that we do not see with the eyes
but with the brain through the eyes, expert
mented with a view to find some means of
conveying the rays of light throu gh diseased
eyes to the retna. After eighteen years of
study he has at length perfected discovery
which must be of the greatest Importance
By the aid of little glass cylinder, to which
he gives the name of port tuaniere, he puts
the optic nerve again in communication with
the exterior world, and enables the blind to
see. 1t is difficult. however, to believe that
vision so obtained be equally distinct

Two Boys Probably Fatally Shot BY a
Young Desperado

The inhabitants of the village Of Salteryille,
in the township OF Greenv,lie, N. j., were
thrown into the greatest state OF excitement on
Saturday night, caused by the cold. blooded a.
tempt by reckless young vagabond named
Jas. Spencer, to murder. in cold blood, three
boys. named John H. S. Thomas, Charles
Wait. and Joseph Salter, by shooting them
Two OF whom--Thomas W and Wait-are very
dangerously If not fatally wounded.
II appears that In the'latter part OF Saturday
afternoon, young Thomas, SON of George W
Thomas. baker, aged fifteen years, went ont
with horse and wagon. accompanied by the
TWO lads above-named, to collect brush wood
ior kinding, and when returning home on
what is known as the new road, Spencer
armed with a shot gun, emerged from piece
OF woods, jumped over the fence into the road
and without the least provocation, shot them
Young w ait received over twenty shot in the
SIDE, shoulder, and head-one penetrating at
the side Of the eye, and he tell out Of the front
OF the wagon between the horses heels and the
whiffletree
Young Thomas was struck by six shot, one
penetrating the left side, in the region of the
eaes e eye 5ee in the
which caused him TO fall over the wheel on TO
the ground. The boy SaIter escaped uninjured
by dropping down behind some of the brush
in the wagon, as Spencer raised the gun to his
shoulder to fire The in ured boys Jumped,
and in a bewildered state of mind ran aero
the lots toward the village, until they were met
homes. wnere medical aid was soon called in.
Subsequently, it appears that the perpetrator Of
the deed returned to his mothers house.
The news Of the occurrence spread rapidly,
and people came tiocking in from all parts of
the village to learn the particulars. At first it
was supposed that the shooting was the result
Of accident, but When 1t became known that
the act was deliberate one, the people became
greatly enraged. and this in connection with
the fact that young Spencer is looked upon as
sort OF an outlaw, LED to a proposition from
some OF the more excited onee to resort to
lynch law.
Better counsels prevailed, however. and it
was decided MOTTO do any unla awful act. The
nextmove was to secure the arrest Of the eul-
prit, and search was made for a constable, but
none was to be found in the village and none
Of the citizens present liked to take the rsspon-
sibility Of making the arrest without warrant
of law. A guard was accordingly placed
around the house Of the m other OF the boy
whose name by second marriage is Crisps-to
prevent his escape and messenger was des-
patched for Colonel Simonson, living in an
other part of the town, and upon the arrival
Of the functionary. he refused to "burn MS
fingers" by making the arrest without war
rant. Another delay was caused ia hunting
up Justice Schultz, who also lived out CT
town, and when the necessary papers were
procured and the arrest made ii was nearly
midnight. The prisoner was Immediately
conveyed to the county Jail to await the res ult
OF tho injuries.
