What Will be Done With the Ex-
hibitiOn Buildings.

There will be a general sale Of all the
buildings belonging 10 the Centennial
Board of Finance On Thursday, No
vember 80, at II o'clock q. m. The
list comprises the Main Building and
Carriage Annex, Agricultural Hall,
with Wagon and Pathological Annexes,
the Art Annex, Photographers Exhibi-
ton Buildings, Shoe and Leather Build
ings, Judges Hall, Butter and Cheese
Building, Guard, Station-house, and
various other small buildings. Particu-
lars of the sale will be furnished in
pamphlet form, on application, ten days
before the appointed time. The sale
was authorized by the Board of Finance
at its session on Monday.
The expectation that most of the
State buildings on the grounds would
be presented to The city at the close of
the exhibition will probably prove not
well founded, as with only one excep-
ton they are of frame, and, aside from
the danger of fire, the continuous ex-
pense in painting and repairing would
soon equal the original cost of the struc-
lures, thus detracting from their actual
value for park purposes. The Ohio
State Building, however, unlike the
rest, was erected almost entirely of
stone, and has been SO substantial
ly built that il will for
years preserve its present
appearance as an ornament. The
original intention vas to present this
structure to the city, and, at recent
meetings of the Ohio State Board, the
subject of its transfer to the Park Com
m~issioners has been considered. Though
no definite action has been taken in the
matter, it is probable that some ar
rangement satisfactory to both the
donors an recipients will be made at
an early day. The German Pavilion, q
substantially built structure, may also,
in due time, become the property Of the
city, as the German Commissioners
generally favor the project of present
ing it to the Park Commissioners. A
member of the Commission some time
since wrote to the Minister of Foreign
Affairs at Berlin for instructions in re.
gard to the proposed transfer, and an
lanswer favorable to the plan of permit.
\ ,ing it to remain permanently is conf
IDENTIFY expected. So far as at presen
known, it seems likely that the othel
minor buildings will be sold to thu
} highest bidder, or disposed of at private
sale at the close of the Exhibition. Pur
chasers for many of them are numerous
and full prices will doubtless be obtain

Lady Politicians.

There is a wealthy young lady in Jer-
sey City, named Miss Anna Adams, who
has presented sets of colors to various
Democratic organizations. She is ap-
parently taking u deep interest in the
election, and has recently informed u
Democratic club that she will pay their
expenses to Washington City and re-
turn in case of Tilden's election. She
is a counterpoise in the political scale
Of q well known lady residing upon
Fifth Avenue, who sent her persona
check to the Republicans for $1,000 for
election expenses, and announced that
she would give as much more to save
the le~tter-carriers Of the city from po-
liticsl assessment. Not satisfied with
this liberal contribution Of money, she
has personally interested herself in the
conversion Of doubtful young men in
her own social circle to the Republican
side. Her zeal having come to the carr
of a popular Southern woman Rebel Il
the core), she sought some Of her South
ern friends. and one day a plan was dis
cussed over the lunch table by which

some additional votes could be secured
for the Democrats. These Southern
women proposed a simple plan. It was
to buy doubtful votes by the carriage
load, and vote them for Tilden. Their
names are known to several gentlemen
whom they consulted. Just how they
design reaching the class of votes desig-
mated so as TO make the offers Ia not re-
vealed. Female politicians have their
hands full just now, and are to be CON-
miserated.-NeU York Cor. Chicago

We Shall Know.


when the mists have rolled in splendor,
From the beauty Of the hills,
And the sunshine, warm and tender,
Falls In splcndOr on the rills,
We may read loves shining letter
In the rainbow of the spray;
We shall know each other better,
When the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known,
Never more to walk alone,
In the dawning OF the morning,
II we err in human blindness,
And forget that We are dust,
If we miss the law of kindness,
When we struggle to be Just,
Snowy wings OF peace shall cover
All the pain that clouds our day,
when the weary watch il over,
And the mists have cleared away.
We shall know as we are known,
Never more to walk alone,
In thed .wnirg of the morning,
When the mists have cleared away.

A Queer Sort of a Pint Cushion.

A very strange malady is that from
which Lydia Stokes, a young woman
Of Lawrence County, Ala, suffers, If w
may credit the correspondent of a local
paper, and he claims to have his infor-
nation from a physician familiar v it'll
the case, and VOWS it is no sell or sem
sation nor overdrawn." At various
times during the past two years there
have been taken from her body over
100 pins and needles, besides wood
splinters, no great number being ex-
tracted at N time. They have APP
peared and been taken from all parts
of the body-face, head, neck, back,
breast, arms and legs. The peculiari.
ties Of the case are that the pins are
headless, the needles are sometimes tax
on out in bundles, or rather as many as
five twisted together as though made
of soft iron wire, and, while they arr
mostly corroded and more or less de-
composed, as though they had passed
through the stomach, yet some are
bright as though recently inserted from
the surface. Every effort so far he,
failed to detect how she becomes pos
sessed of them. She has been deprived
Of both pins and needles, all such fem
inine c~onveniences being carefully con
cealed from her for long periods o
time without materially checking tn,
trouble. The location from which the,
are taken is first indicated by a SINAI
possible or pimple. She is delicate, up
parently consumptive, and believe
that she ia bewitched.

ETIENNE GALDINoT, now living with
his granddaughter near the mouth of
Ballskin Creek, in Franklin County,
Ohio, was born in 1852, in a Canadian
hamlet between the St. Charles and
Montmorency Rivers, below Quebec.
The great battle between the French
and English was fought near his fathers
cabin, and although then only six years
old, he remembers it perfectly. In 1895
he trapped for furs nea the Niagars

battle of Lundy's Lane in the war o.
1912. He has never voted.

New dental PIurrer.

We have frequently heard the New Dental
Plugger Of DIR. @. N. Richmond, $50 Market
street, San Francisco, spoken Of In the highest
terms a. . great improvement upon the old
plugger in common use, but we were not pre-
pared to find an instrument 30 near perfection.
One or two Of our molars were in . dilApidaied
condition, and . few days since we applied 70
DR.. Richmond "for repairs" and those Of our
readers who have groaned and suffered and
groaned again under the tedious, painful and
lAborious process Of the old system, will scarcely
credit US when we say that by the uso Of tie
New Dental Plugger the operation Of "hlling"
is comparatively pleasant one. The time %
cupied in filing is very materially leasened,
thus enabling the Doctor TO reduce his prices Il
least one-hah, 10 say nothing Of economidng
the time Of the patient After testing this Plug
ger we could not be induced 10 submit to an ope-
ration under the old system upon any terms.
DR.. Richmond has recently received patentfor
his invention, and It Is undoubtedly the finest
Plugger in the world. DR.. Richmond is grad
uate Of the Philadelphia Dental College, one Of
the best dental schools In the world. Associ-
Ated with him is DR.. z. o. CochrAne, Of New
York, who Is probably the finest mechanical
dentist upon this coast. We confidently recon-
mend our readers in need Of dental work 70 cal

tlemen, when visiting San Francisco, and W
feel assured that they with us viii be surprised
at the wonderful success to which they have ~

Sickness IN THE HAREM.-The carpet
on which the Sultan daily prays is kept
in order by several persons, whose joint
salary is $500 year. The Sultan's
doctors and apothecaries cost S140, 900 q
year. Whenever any of the Sultan's
wives fall i'll, or rather unwell, she is at
once sent away from the Sultan's pal
ace. His third wife fell suddenly most
dangerously i'll recently, and could not,
in common decency, be removed. The
Sultan constantly refused to see her
during all her illness. She died during
the night, and the instant he heard Of
her death he quilted the palace, and re-
fused to return until after her burial.
When physicians are summoned to the
palace, they enter the harem with the
old ceremonial. First comes a eunuch,
brandishing q very large saber; then
comes the doctor, followed by two
other eunuchs, armed to the teeth.
Muftis, or religious teachers, are never
admitted.

SHAVING By THE AcRE.-It is re-
corded that gentleman residing in one
of the large towns of England, whose
face exceeded the ordinary dimensions,
was waited on by a barber for twenty
one years without coming to a settle
ment. The barber, thinking it about
time to settle, presented his bill, in
which he charged q penny q day,
amounting in all to e31 les Cd. The
gentleman, supposing too much charged, I,
refused to pay the amount, but agreed
to q proposal of the barber to pay at the
rate of 9200 an acre. The premises
we're accordingly measured, and the re-
suit was that the shaving bill was in
creased to e73 8s Cd.
IT is said that eggs may be preserved

ROMANCE FROM REAL LRK.-A ro-
mantle incident occurred on the last
voyage to New York Of the Inman
steamer City of Berlin. 1t seems that
q young British officer had become en-
shared by the charms of one of our
pretty American girls, while she was
making the tour to Europe, in company
with her father, stepmother and sister.
An engagement followed-the parents
consenting, after satisfactory inquiries
and the happy party embarked for
America, where the young couple were
to settle after marriage, the captain hav-
ing left the army and his native land
with the purpose of becoming an Ameri-
can citizen. The first part Of their voy-
age was coIeatr de rose, the young peo-
pie being inseparable; but q few days
before arrival, papa, upon some frivo-
lous pretext, and without any previous
warning, declared that the engagement
must be ended, and, tn the grief of the
young people, and the indignation of
their sympathizing fellow-passengers,
confined his daughter to her room, and,
on the arrival of the vessel, hurried her
off at once to her home in Buffalo, with
out permitting her TO communicate with
her lover. This strange action Of the
father seems the more unreasonable, be-
cause the young gentleman was known
by him to be an eligible part as regards
position, reputation, appearance and
means, and a distinguished service in
India. We hope the affair will yet ter
inmate fAvorably for the young couple,
as in such affairs the obstinate father is
apt to experience the truth of the old
adage, Love laughs at locksmiths."
