4 Man With a Baby's Mind.

A very singular case comes from Bur-
gettstown, which place the Rev. DR.
Marcus Ormond left on Saturday, that
he might walk through the Southern
States in search of health. DR.. Ormond
was born and raised in Burgettstown.
His education was of the best. He be-
came an honored clergyman of the
united Presbyterian church and served
as chaplain of the One Hundred and For
tieth Pennsylvania Regiment during the
war. Late one night in 1878, while he
was in bed, word reached him in Wash
ington, Pa, that his residence and fine
library at West Alexander had been
burned. This was great shock to him.
In March of last year he complained OF
pain in his head. For two months he
was unconscious and lost his speech.
Gradually he began to make known his
thoughts, but he was very much like a
child. Mrs. Ormond and the CHI ildren
worked hard with him, and finally he
learned the alphabet and could make
out short words. He knew the faces OF
his children, but could not remember
he would ask for Clara. The physicians
advised that his mind should not be
overturned again. They also concluded
that his weight should be reduced, for
he was in robust physical health, and he
was fed with skinned milk. By such
treatment his weight was brought down
from 900 to $50 pounds. He has not inn
proved any for the last year. His writ
ing is merely mechanical act-simply
copy of the words his wife writes for
him. Singularly enough, he is able to
count, and can make a good bargain il
the transaction takes place on the same
occasion. He takes great interest in the
Grant boom, and likes to have notices OF
it read to him. Physicians cannot ac-
count for his condition. He goes on the
walking tour to strengthen his mind.
His wife and daughters are carrying on
furnishing store in gettstown.-

News and Notes for Women.

There are three lady physicians prac-
ticing their profession in Berlin.
Young ladies in England have taken
to canoes for amusement, and the sport
is very popular.
1t takes a whole legislature to change
a mans name. A woman can change
hers by the act of single man.
The dowry of the new Queen of Spain
has been paid into the national, bank at
Vienna. The sum is S4,0OO,0OO.
The women of Rome have complex
ions like white wax, which are very
lovely by gaslight, but unhealthy look
ing by day.
German toys are made chiefly of wood
and papier mache. America has entered
into competition by making many toys
of tin.
A pretty young bride of New York
recently wore her great grandma theirs
wedding-dress of white satin, yellow
with age, and a veil of the finest Brus-
sells lace, which had been her grand
mothers bridal veil.
This is the way that they dress in
Paris at the Patti concerts: One lady
wore kilt skirt of old gold satin will

quet of roses, and bonnet of old golC

There are some situations where fever
and ague prevails every season, and
this is the case in the vicinity of creeks
and swamps.. An acquaintance of ours,
who has resided for several years on one
Of these creeks, has never had a single
case of fever and ague in his family,
while all his neighbors have been more
or less affected with it every season.
He attributes his immunity from this
troublesome disease to the use of good
fire in his house every chilly and damp
night in summer and fall. When the
Indians travel at night or early in the
morning in swampy regions they cover
their nose and mouth with some part Of
their garments to warm the air which
they inhale, and this they say prevents
chills and fevers. Scientific american.

On String prairie, three miles east of
Lexington, in Lee county, were married
at the residence of the brides father,
Mr.. r. @. Simpson, Mr.. Harvey Griffin
and Miss Josephine Simpson. The
fortunate bridegroom was aware of the
maxim that the most valuable and pre-
cious goods are always put up in small
parcels. This wee, bonny bride is
twenty-five years of age, her weight is
thirty-eight pounds, her height is thirty
two inches, and she wears number six
child's shoe. Beautiful. vivacious and
accomplished. yet dignified, modest and
lady-like in her manner, she is always
the center of attraction, and for two
years travelled on exhibition. Mr.. Grit
fin is gentleman of medium size. May
their journey through life be long and
happy one, their cup of pleasure filled
to the hrim with only enough thorns to
remind them of the roses ever bloom
ing along their way.--Rockdale Messen-

Col, stands was decided by Judge Hallet in

favor of squatters The decision creates great
surprise among property owners of Leadville

certain irresponsible class of people who have

erty, the title OF which was supposed to have
been settled beyond dispute by patents from
the United States The case will go to the

The New Ocean Cable.

The new ocean cable, known at pres
ent as the Ponyer-Quertier scable, will
reach from northeastern Massachusetts
on Cape Cod to Brest, France. It is
owned by French and American share
holders, the former having a controlling
influence, and has paid up capital of
Sc, 400, 600. which is soon to be in
creased 100000. The cable has been
constructed by the English company
that made the direct cable, and is con-
sidered the most perfect that has yet been
produced. 1t is thus described: A
central wire of copper is surrounded by
ten copper wires, twisted, ensuring alb
solute conductivity in all weather.
For insulating purpose, three envelopes
of gutta percha surround the wire. and
outside of the gutta percha is placed a
wrapping of MANILA hemp, treated with
Chatterton's compound. An 'armor OF
steel wire for protection is outside the
hemp, the wires composing the armor
being.laid in a peculiar manner, side by
sides that fractures seem almost impos-
sible to occur. Surrounding the armor
is another covering of MANILA hemp,
saturated with an anti-corrosive COM
pound, which makes assurance doubly
sure that the cable will always be ready
for use.
1t is being laid by the famous cable
steamer Faraday, and reaches from
Brest, France, to st. Pierre, Miquelon,
and thence to North Eastman, Mass.
When the main line is finished the Fara-
day will lay connecting link between
Brest and Lands End, England, and
next year new line will be constructed
from Lands End to st. Pierre. thus es-
tablishing "a double line. The Faraday
was at work laying the cable during the
cyclone which created such havoc in
mid-ocean, but she kept on her way
without deviating from her course, $ end.
| ing her hourly signals back announcing
her progress. She reached the Massa-
chussets coast safely.

A Pocket Republic.

The little republic of San Mariho,
which, by the mouth Of one Of its most
prominent officers, gave an indignant
dehial few weeks ago to the assertion
that it intended authorizing the intro
duction of gaming tables, is inelosed In
the kingdom Of Italy. 1t is bounded on
the north, east and south BY THE bro
vince Of Forii, and Din tie West by that
Of Pesafc. It's territory covers eighty
Two square kilometres (about thirty
three square miles). The population
numbers $500 soul5, and the capital,
] San Msrino, has 200. 1t is perched on
/ the summit of a mountain called Mount
Titan, or the Giants, which sometimes
leads TO the little State being termed the
Titanic republic. Its origin dates from
several centuries back, aid for heraldic
bearings It has the following: Argent,
three strong towers; azure, on three
! rocks of the same; three curved flames
gules issue from the towers and crown
them. The motto is 1ibertas." The
| escutscbecl is surrounded by flags and
surmountod by crown, indicating a
sovereign State. The republic has an
order of chivalry, created in 1889, under
the name of Order of San Marine. 1t
consists of a Greek cross, with towers at
the four angles, and in the center a me-
dallion with the arms of the republic
surmounted by a princely crown closed,
and suspended to II striped blue and
white ribbon. These. are the national
colors. In 1896, Bonaparte, after de-
feating tie Austrians, sent the cele-
brated mathematician, Mongo, to COM
pliment the free mountaineers and make
them offers of ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, but they
very politely and very prudently de-
| clined. When Italy became a kingdom,
Napoleon desired to preserve this small
State intact. 1t is rare sample of a
republic to preserve, said the emperor.
In 1849, Garibaldi, driven from Rome
by General Oudinot, took refuge in San
Marine, forbidding his soldiers to dc
any harm to the inhabitants. Victor
Emanuel not only respected the liberty
and institutions of this little country
but always showed it great sympathy
especially on his visit to Bologna at the
time of the opening of the Ancona rail
way in 1861. In 1867 a treaty of Gus
toms and commerce was concluded be
tween Italy and the republic. Sar
Marine owes it's foundation to a hermit
of that name born in Dalmatia in the
fourth century, and who went to Ital,
to Work as a mason at the rebuilding o
the walls of Rimini. Marine afterwarC
took refuge in the midst of the woods o
Mount Titan, and constructed there
cabin in which he ended his days. TIL
place where he expired soon became TN
object of pilgrimages. and houses wer
built there which ultimately formed TIL
town Of San Marine. The fete of TIL
saint is celebrated on the fourth of Sep
tember.-Galig'aGmi'S Messenger.

A Valuable Hole in the Ground

Captain Codman's Utah letter to the
New York EUening Post says Six years
ago, when traversing the Alta divide of
the Wasatch mountains, | lost my way
in the pine forests and gulches, where
there was neither habitation nor trail,
and the bearing of the sun was my only
hope of deliverance. Suddenly I came
TO an opening where a little space had
been cleared, and II log house denoted
the presence of mankind, and windlass,
with u small pile of dirt at its side, be-
tokened works which mistook for the
digging of u well. A nearer inspection
proved that it was location" and u
stained paper notice on IL stake told me
that the prospect was called the
Ontario. The discoveries, two rough
looking men, were getting out dirt, a
hucketful at hoist, from the shaft, and
seemed TO be so poor and hungry that
like Esau, they would have sold their
hirthright for mess of pottage. Had /
been 10. keen ut a bargain as Jacob was,
l should have bought 1t there and then.
But little dreaming of the value of that
hole in the ground, left the patient
miners at their work, after getting from
them the direction of Snyder's ranch.
The Ontario prospect is now the On
tario mine, that has paid its owners
more than $5,00O,O00 in dividends, and
Snyder's rancho, where Snyder was as
poor as Rip Van Wrinkles dog of the
same name, is now known by the munci-
pal name OF Park city. No uncertain
trail leads to the city and the mine.
Daily from Salt Lake through Parley's
Park canyon, distance of thirty miles,
tho road is crowded with stage coaches,
wagons and teams, going and returning
with passengers, supplies and ore, and
the city is the most Aourishing camp in

The Best ;yayto Cheer Up,

II you are respondent invalid, is to grow
stronger. This you can do if you will take a
piece of advice which has the weight OF high
medical authority to back it. That is to use
the standard inyigorant, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, specially commended and Endorsed by
physicians. Among the bodily troubles which
it overcomes are dyspepsia, irregularity OF
the bowels, liver complaint, general debility
and nervous complaints. 1t is also found very
useful in counteracting tendency to weak
ness or disorder of the kidneys and bladder,
and persons troubled with rheumatism strongly
indorse it as q remedy. Its influence upon
the entire system is highly beneficial, pro.
noting as it does the return Of sleep and
appetite, and the acquisition OF flesh and
strength. A silent reproof OF the folly Of
nauseou drug medication is conveyed in the
success Of this pleasant and effective botanical
ynedicin0.
