case In point occurred In Scotland, where q
skeleton was disinterred from a sandy sea-
beach, an examination of the remains being
duly ordered by the authorities. In the course
OF the investigation the medical examiners dis
covered that the lower portion Of the spine was
diseased, and from the nature OF the lesion
they were enabled to state that the individual
In question must have walked with a marked
popularity OF gait. This clue, patiently fol-
lowed up, showed that the skeleton was that
OF carter who had been defOrmed, and who
was buried at night In the sand by his friends
to avoid the chances OF his body being stolen
for anatomical purposes by the ''resurrec-
tiopists" OF his day. A similar case is
related by Orflla, the celebrated con-
tinental expert, In which q man named Boni-
no, residing near Montpelier, suddenly disap.
peared In 1923. In 1925 certain suspicious at
taching to the disappearance induced the
authorities to examine the garden of one
DimOnt, with the result of discovering the
bones Of a human body. Bonino was well
known to have labored under six fingered
defOrmfty In the right hand, and to
have possessed six toes on the left foot The
two smaller toes Of the left foot were missing in
the otherwise perfect skeleton; but on the fifth
toe surface or hollow to which an additional
toe could have been attached was plainly dis
ceTnible In the right hand the bones Of the sixth
finger were absent, but the palm bone supporting
the little finger exhibited the appearance of hav-
Ing given support to an extra digit The left
hand and right foot were complete and entire
This evidence, supported by collateral circum-
stances, told against DimOnt aud woman, his
partner In the crime, and both suffered the eX-
IRENE penalty OF the law.

Believe as believe, no more, no less;
That am right, and no one else. confess;
Feel as 1 feel. think only as think;
Eat what eat and drink but what drink;
Look as look, do always as do
And then, and only then, I'll fellowship with You.
That am right, and always right, know,
Because my own convictions tell me SO;
And to be right is simply this to be-to be
Entire y and in all respects like me;
To deviate a hairs breadth, or begin
To question or to doubt or hesitate, is sin.
I reverence the Bible if ii be
Translated first and then explained to me;
By churchly laws and customs abide
II they with my opinion coincide;
All creeds and doctrines CO.. cede divine,
Excepting those, of course, which disagree with
mine.
Let sink the drowning, if he will not swim
Upon the plank that throw out to him;
Let starve the hungry, if he will not eat
My kind and quantity of bread and meat;
Let freeze the naked, if he viii not be
Clothed in such garments as are made for me.
'Twere better that the sick should die than live,
Unless they take the medicine give;

Twere better that the world stand still than move
In any other way than that which approve.

THE WEEKLY STAR.
WASHINGTON, D. c.

The EVENING STAR, ION Saturdays double
sheet or eight page paper Of fifty-siX columns,
the size Of the New York dailieS), is everywhere
recognized as the leading newspaper OF Wash
ington. With two exceptions only, it has the
largest circulation Of any daily paper published
south Of Ne,c Fork, AND MORE THAN DOUBLE
THAT OF ANY OTHER PAPER IN THE CITY.
Every issue of THE STAR is carefully read
not only by the citizens of Washington and ad-
jacent cities, but by the throngs OF strangers
constantly visiting the National Capital on
business or for pleasure, [and who constitute,
In very large degree, the purchasing popula-
ton OF every State and Territory In the Union),
thus making it for most purposes
THE BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE
UNITED STATES.
Its influence as an agent OF publicity has In
deed practically no limit within the boundaries
Of the country. The best evidence OF this is the
number Of new advertisements it printed In the
year 1879, which reached 20, 636, averaging
from 1,7OO TO. 900 per month In the busy
season.! These figures include only the sub
ject of the advertisement, and not any change
Of the matter, which, In some instances, is made
daily, and, although a new advertisement In
fact, is not counted but once instead OF $40 puo-
lication dates The advertising books are open
to the inspection OF advertisers to verify this
statement, or an affidavit Of its truthfulness
will be submitted.
THE WEEKLY STAR.-This is a double or
eight-page sheet, containing ffty-six columns
OF fresh News Literary and Agricultural matter
every week, and is pronounced by competent
Judges one of THE CHEAPEST AND BEST

Falling Two Hundred Feet-A Miners
 Shocking Death in Coal Shaft.
 BRADFORD, Sept. BOA few evenings since two miners at the Leith Station coal shaft near Uniontown, were lowered in bucket to make some repairs in the machinery in the five-foot vein, 25O feet below the surface. In hoisting the bucket after the men had left it became entangled in the ropes and could not be moved. Communication between the cut off An hours efforts by the work men on the surface to raise the bucket proving itself unsuccessful, John Donohue, one of their number, volunteered to let himself down the rope hand over hand to the bottom of the shaft to see what rope fastened to him to save him in case he should lose his hold. A few seconds after he disappeared down the mouth of the shaft the from the depths My God, my hands are getting hot !'' The miners knew the terrible meaning of that The next minute they heard dull thud at the bottom of the shaft. The miners in the vein had also heard Dono- hue's exclamation, but, ignorant of the fact that he had started down the rope, did not understand it's meaning until Donohue's body fell in their midst, crushed into an al- most unrecognizable mass. He could not have been more than fifty feet from the surface when his blistering hands lost their hold on the rope The men below had not known there was anything wrong with the bucket. They disentangled the rope that had become fast to timber, and were hoisted with their dead comrade to the surface.
