A Child Without "a Skull.

. A remarkable freak of nature arrived in
this city yesterday In the way of child
which had managed to live for seventeen
months without that bony 'dome Of
thought" which is regarded as essential
to continued existence. Moreover, the
child seems to have no use for brain, If
the ewes may be believed, for, in the alb
sence of skull, the head is translucent
and almost transparent, while by the aid
of lamp properly held il may be per-.
ceived that the brain cavity is filled with
a coloYless fluid. Nothing exists i'll this
serum that can be perceived. The head is
larger than the body, the increase of size
being almost entirely above the temples,
and measures ~ inches around. The
lower face is perfect and the child would
be pretty but for the monstrous develop
ment. The rapid growth of the head has
drawn the skin until the eyelids will not
close and the eyebrows are pulled up an
inch above the normal position. When an
ENQUIRER reporter visited the child yester-
dav it was asleep and its mother would
not allow it to be awakened for expert
ments. A rather dim coal-Oil lamp was
placed behind the monstrous head and
cleaned through it as though the skin
formed the only obstacle to the light.
The child has every appearance, except
in the color of the skin, of good health.
1t is fully developed, is very plump, and
is said to be strong, while it has good
appetite. In all its habits it is regular
and like any other child. That it should
have progressed so far us to have been
weaned, maintaining good health, ana
should have reached the teethius period,
is one of the wonders of physiology. Its
senses are said to be perfect and acute,
and it possesses enough intelligence to
smile family when tickled, and TO recog-
niZe food when he sees it, When the
child was born it was known rs the "head-
less baby" as it seemed cut off above the
ears OH line sloping toward the nape of
the neck, while wrinklcd skin covered
the top. 1t suffered greatly and its life
was preserved with difficulty. A. three
or four weeks of age the skin began to fill
out, when the child's sufferings ceased
and it enjoyed good health. The growth
has been constant since. Cincinnati Eli
qulrer.

A Theatre Burned.

A few hours before Mrs. Langtry,
the celebrated English beauty, was to
make her first appearance on the stage
in New York, the theatre IN which .he
was 10 perform was totally destroyed
by fire. The theatre was small, but
most deliberately decorated, and had
just been newly furnished and provided
with large amount of very costly
scenery especially provided tor Mrs.
Lang,ry's play, all OF which Was burned.
Stage Carpenter Henry Clark was fatally
burned while endeavoring TO extinguish
the flames, and scenic artist was COM
PEELED to jump from an upper window,
breaking his leg. Mrs Lang.ry wit
messed The fire from the balcony of her
hotel, and was much shocked at the
scene, and is said TO be suffering from
nervousness and disappointment. Mr..
Abbey, the owner and manager of the
theatre, estimates his loss at over
100000, on which there is an iusuy.
ance of about $1,000.

PosrpoNEMENr.-The Shepherdstown
Dramatic Society has been obliged, on
account of unavoidable circumstances,
to postpone the entertainment which
was advertised to take place this Satur-
day night, November 4th. On next
Saturday night, however, November II,
the programme already announced, will
be rendered, and we have no doubt will
prove very interesting. AS it is for a
good cause.-the benefit of the Shepherd
Fire Company--it lie to be he ped that it
will be literally patronized.

A Beautiful Girls Suicide.

One of the most appalling cases of sui
eide occurred ut the Notre Dame Cathe-
dral in Paris few weeks ago. y young and
beautiful woman who had been waiting
since sunrise for the doors of the tower of
the ancient cathedral to open, fastened
up to the balcony OH tie highest point
overlooking the Place du Paryis and re-
NAMED there until late in the afternoon,
when she threw herself down and was
transfixed upon the spikes of the iron rail-
ing surrounding statue. The poor girls
body was torn in two, and the mutilated
remains had to be picked off piecemeal
from the spikes. The woman was young,
beautiful, elegantly dressed, and there is
no clue to her identity.

A Fierce Fight Between Huge
snakes.

At half-past one o'clock Saturday morn
ing, rs the private Waterman at the Bal
timore Dime Museum was going his rounds
he had his atteption attracted by unusual
" loud noises coming from the third story
of the building. Upon Fastening thither
he found the python, the largest shake in
captivity Seventeen feci) in deadly COM
bat with an anaconda, twelve feet long.
How long they had been fighting the
Waterman did not know, but he says that
from the time his attention was attracted
by the noises up stairs until half-past Z,
his hour for going of duty. they kept up
a continuous warfare. When ole would
miss his aim and strike the side of the
care the sound could be distinctly heard
Oh the ground or auditorium floor. The
python, after numberless bouts with his
opponent, seems TO have gathered all his
strength for final attack, which was
made. The anaconda was ready, and
placing themselves in an almost upright
position they made for each other with
fearful rage. After having carried on
their deadly combat for fully six hours
the python made a last desperate lunge
and succeeded in getting the anaconda's
head in his mouth to the depth OF ut least
three feet, and holding it in This position
for some time at last commenced to coil
itself around the anaconda until it actual
lv ground and mashed the life out of it.
The Waterman says he never wants to
witness another such battle. He had 10
KEY to the case, and even if he had it is
doubtful if he would have had the temeri-
" to undertake TO separate the reptiles.

sioDary meeting in the interest OF home
