The Atlantic Balloon.

Donaldson, the balloon man, is pre-
pairing for an emergency. "What do
you want second boat for?" asked q
reporter of him. az should think the
one that is building would be sufficient
for YOU"
sin case the balloon gets so weak as
to lose nearly all power, and be unable
to carry all the party" says Donaldson,
professor Wise, the mariner, and the
correspondents will have to take to
the big boat, and leave me in the bal
loon alone. There may not be enough
power in the balloon to carry over all
the party, but there may be enough to
carry me thousand miles further. 1t
would be sin and shame to abandon
the balloon except under the direst ne
cessity. Well, then, if I go on, and she
keeps losing power SO that I can't help
myself, why, the little canoe Donald.
son must be my last resource"

An Edifying Spectacle.

The Chicago Inter- Ocean says that
there is at present performing in one OF
the concert halls of that city gentle
man known as Dibolo. "Mr. Dibolo's
mission upon earth appears to be to de-
vour red hot Goals and subject his
tongue to process of singe by drawing
across it red hot poker. To the unin-
ltiated his performance certainly tran
scendG the laws of nature. He appears
upon the platform 1--WE cannot altogetE-
e- call it stage) clad in the fiery garb
of Mephistophiles. After a little pre-
hminary speech in which he blows his
own horn with remarkable ability, his
satanic majesty takes lump of burning
charcoal, puts it into his mouth, and
eats it like chocolate caramel. He next
takes stick of sealing-wax, which he
heats to a flame, and then chews it like
a stick of candy. He then calls two in.
telligent imbibers of lager-beer from the
audience, and bids them watch him heat
piece of lead, after heating which he
sups the contents with red-hot spoon,
and, shortly thereafter, drops the solidl-
fed lead out of his mouth. His per-
formance closes by drawing a red-hot
poker across his tongue. It is not by
any means pleasing exhibition, still it
illustrates principle long known te
scientific men-that the skin can be
trained, by the use of certain chemicals,
to stand the severest test of heat. The
mans mouth looks like blackened pit,
his eyes have wild glare, and his ap-
pearance is that of one "sicklied o'er
with the pale cast of fire."

An Indians Grave.

The Toledo (Ohio) Blade of Saturday
describes some Indian remains recently
found in that neighborhood as follows !:
cat a point a little below Manhattan,
on the banks of the Maumee, the water
has gradually washed away the road
bed to such an extent as to make it
necessary to remove the fence and
make new road. While engaged in
this work yesterday, the workmen un-
earthed a human skeleton, evidently
the remains of q famous chief of the
Maumee or Ottawa tribe of Indians.
The skull was of an unusually large
size, and in the lower jaw was a
row of double teeth, in better state of
preservation than many now doing daily
duty. A lock of the great chiefs hair
was also found, long, black, and thick.
When laid in his lonely grave, the chief
was enshrouded in the skins of wild
animals, which are now nearly gnawed
away by the tooth of time. Upon his
breast were number of once glittering
spangles the legs were also literally
bespangled, and around his neck had
been suspended q mammoth brooch.
The warriors wrists had been encircled
with pair of silver wristlets, as bright
and fresh when found, apparently, as
when the red men first left him for
the "happy hunting grounds, perhaps
fifty years ago. The accoutrements OF
war were also there-a tomahawk and
knife of stone, and arrow-heads of flint.
These ornaments, spangles, &C., would
probably fill pint measure, and alto
gether go to show that the dead warrior
had been famous man of his age and
race. Stimulated by the hope of find.
ing more relics, Mr.. Hertzler renewed
the search, and soou unearthed stone
hatchet, more arrow-heads, and a cop
per bucket, in good state of preserva-
ton, except the iron handle, which had
nearly corroded away. This neighbor-
hood was once evidentlya favorite place
of assembly and sepulture, as many
Indian relics have ut times been found,
and Just across the river is nm old In
dian burying- ground, which no doubt
holds many interesting mementoes OF
that primitive race"

Origin Of Plaques,

DR.. Tholozan, physician in chief to
the Shah of Persia, recently read pa
per before the French Academy of Sci
ences on the origin Of pestilence. It has
been generally believed, he said, that
the plague or eruptive fever was exclu-
sively engendered in low, warm, and
marshy regions, especially in the north
Of Africa aud in Asia Minor. This
opinion is, however, without founda-
tion, and large number Of facts, as
we'll as the evidence of past infections,
prove that the-disease may originate in
any latitude, under all climates and in
all countries, however elevated. 1t is
not consequence of climate or meteor
illogical influence, nor even the neces-
sary concomitant of unhygienic causes,
however energetic. Famine, for in
stance, breeds typhus fever rather than
the plague. This exclusion of all ply
sical origin leads to the conviction that
the malady is due to some animal fer
ment; the pest, in short, is an organic
fermentation.
M. Tholozan added that he consid-
cred the deadly forms of pestilence so
common is Kurdistan to be principally
due to the intimate contact of the in
habitants with their sheep in unhealthy
and badly aired cabins.

Her Spring Hat.
How the Average Woman Constructs
Her Head Gear.

How the Average Woman Constructs
Her Head Gear.
A woman who is considering the mat
ter of her spring hat is an interesting
subject for contemplation. First she
buys straw frame that looks as if 1t
had been struck by hurricane and
tken sat down on by Coroner's jury.
After that, when she rides in the street
car, she drinks in the details of every
spring hat that enters, and learns them
all by heart, and does mental sums over
the cost of the ribbon, and makes up
her mind to have flowers in hers like
those worn by the woman in the corner,
and lace like that gaudy-loohng crea.
ture in the middle. And when she
walks dawn the streets and studies all
the hats that come along, and when a
woman passes her with one on, she
twists her neck around to see how it
looks behind, and is disgusted to see
that the woman is also dislocating her
neck to sec how she trims her hat.
When she arrives in front of a millinery
store she fingers until she has analyzed
all the spring hats in the window, and
she determines to trim hers nineteen
different ways, and decides not to
have flowers like the woman who sat in
the corner. Then she shoots into the
store and asks to "see hats" with the
air of person who has whole female
seminary to rig out with eighty dollar
head gear. She examines every hat in
the establishment, overhauls ten bush
els of flowers, gets about twenty dollars
worth of work out of the. saleswoman,
and then says she will "look further. "
Then she goes home with her mind
fixed on thirty-eight or nine different
styles in which she wants to trim her
hat. After while she begins to think
she ought to have feather in it, and
she passes two or three sleepless nights
irving to decide whether to put, one on
or not. At last she decides she will.
Then she lies awake for two more nights
endeavoring to determine whether ii
shall be red or blue. She fixes on blue.
She buys the trimming, and sews it on
in seventy successive positions, heI
mind filed with deepest anxiety as to
whether the feather should 60 on the
right side, the left side, or on top. She
puts it on the right side; but just then
Mrs. Brown passes the front window
with feather on the left side Of hers,
and so she changes it. The next morn
ing Mrs. Fersuson calls, and her feather
is on the right side, and then another
change is made. At church the next
day Mrs. Smith has feathers on both
sides, and Mrs. johnson has one on top.
Then more sleepless nights and painful
uncertainty. At last she takes the hat
to milliner, pays $40 to have it trim
med. When it comes back she pro
nounces it hateful" and picks it al
to pieces, and broods over it, and feels
life to be O burden for week or two
longer, until suddenly she hits just the
right thing and becomes once more
happy, and puts the hat on and goes
out to make other women miserable be-
cause their hats are not trimmed ex
actly like hers. AS wife, woman is {
blessing as q mother, she is an in
estimable boon as an organizer Of
spring hats, she is simply an object o!
compassion.

STEALING HEAVENS LIVERY. - The

B1rrERs, is everywhere driving pestifer-
our rum potions out of the market.
That famous combination Of the finest
medical herbs on the continent OF
America, is accomplishing such cures
of diseases which affect the stomach,
the liver, the bowels, the kidneys and
the nervous system, that the grateful
masses have adopted it as their Stand
ard Specific. The various rum bitters
have gone down before this pure vege-
table antidote like tenpins before we'll

Carholic Acid I'm Disease.

1t is well known that rubbing the
body with hogs fat has the effect of re-
ducing the temperature of the skin in
scarlet fever. DR.. Ketz of Heilbronn
directs to incorporate one or two gram
mes of carbolic acid into 100 grammes
Of lard, and, with this, to rub the whole
body, excepting the head, two or three
times day, according to the intensity
of inflammation characterizing the case
in hand. The effect of this kind ot
treatment is to produce a pleasant feel
ing of GOODNESS, to keep the skin softer
and after each application the tempera'
ture of the skin falls somewhat. The
carbolic acid operates to destroy the
germs and spores Of the disease.

Coal On.-From figures compiled
from the Pittsburgh Commercial, we
have the quotations of crude and refined
oil for the years 1869 to 1873, inclusive,
for Aug. IL. In 1869 crude oil sold at l45
cents; refined, 31i cents. In 1870, crude,
81 cents refined, 23i cents. In 1871,
crude, II cents refined, "a cents. In
1872, crude, 81 cents refined, 10 cents.
In 1873, crude, 4 cents, and refined 13
cents. Now that the producers have
got so much oil it is like white ele.
phant on their shoulders, as they have
nowhere to put it. In the oil country
money is much more easy to get than
tankage, and many owners of wells will
be compelled to let the oil into Oil
Greek, for want Of place to put it In.

The Chinese COnsplrators,

The seven Cinnamon arrested in San
Francisco on the charge of conspiracy,
as members of powerful organization
for evil purposes, recently disclosed,
have been admitted to bail in $1,000
each for their appearance for trial. The
Bulletin says: can examination was
set for this morning, but on application
of the Prosecu ing Attorney it was post
poned, to permit the police further OPP
portunity to inquire into the character
and operations of the society in ques-
ton. The safe seized at the head
quarters has been conveyed to the police
Office, and is supposed to contain papers
and records which night involve start.
ling revelations regarding the internal
affairs of the Chinese colony. From
what has already been brought to light,
it is certain that sort of independent
government, limited in extent, but
amounting to an absolute despotism, IL
maintained in our midst, and that pen
alties and punishments are commonly
inflicted, even extending to the taking
of life. 1t Is not improbable that many
victims have met their death by the de-.
crees of this organization of Thugs,
from the easy facilities which the Chi
nese have of concealing their operations
from the knowledge of lawful authority.
The fact that the existence of the socie-
ty has been kept secret SO long is evi-
dence Of its power and the terror which
its operations have excited among the
Chinese. The safe referred to is Sc
cured by several locks, the keys Of which
are held by several persons, each being
bound in the solemnity of heathen rites
not to open the safe except with the per-
mission and in the presence of the otfi-
GERS of the society. Whether the police
authorities will prosecute their investi-
cations to the extent of breaking open
the safe has not yet been determined,
but the circumstances would certainly
warrant such course. The case alto
gether is one of the most important the
authorities have yet taken up in con-
nection with the Chinese grievances, as
it pertains to the abominable traffic in
women"

BURNED TO DEATH.---A negro named
Dan Calhoun, who had been digging a
well near Brighton Station, on the Padu-
cab Railroad, lay down to sleep near his
work. Whilesleeping he was discovered
by three men, who thinkipgto have some
fun, as they afterwards stated, poured
lhe contents of bottle of turpentine
on Calhoun's clothes and set them on
fire. Calhoun awaking and finding him
self in flames, ran shrieking for help,
and before he could be caught by citi-
zens was so badly burned that he died
the next day. The negroes in the neigh
borhood of Covington heard of the hor-
rible affair, and in vain attempted to
have warrants issued for the arrest Of
the perpetrators of the crime, who be-
coming alarmed fled. The negroes in
armed squads secured the woods in
search OF them, but were quieted by
the sheriff, who promised to make every
effort for their capture.
