Dimples Manufactured to Order.

Some poet it was who said that when
ever a man has dimple in his chin then
Venus is his friend, but maybe that
rule won't hold good in these days when
dimples are manufactured by art. For
there is place on O'Farrell street in
this city where dimples are made to Or
der. I went there out of curiosity. I
was shown into parlor somewhat re-
sembling dentists operating room.
There was glass case full of bottles,
washes and wigs and regular dentists

A dapper little gent in velvet cut

whose face wore a complacent smirk,
claimed the name as his.
I bashfully suggested the dimple ques-

~ did want dimple in my arm, and
told him so. But 7 insinuated my dis
belief in his ability to produce the neces-
sary article.
Whereupon he convinced me by prac-
tice. This is how it was done -.--
My arm being bare and the exact spot
indicated, he placed small glass tube,
the orifice of which was extremely small,
upon the spot. This tube had working
within it piston, and was so small that
when the handle was drawn up the air
was exhausted from the tube and it ad-
hered to the flesh, raising a slight pro-
tuberance. Around this raised portion
Monsieur Alphonse daintily tied a piece
of scarlet silk, and then took away his
suction machine. The little point of
skin which was thus raised he sliced off
with a wicked-looking knife, bringing
the blood.
tried hard not to scream, but it was
SO unexpected I had to. .
Then he bound up the arm, placing
over the wound small silver object like
an inverted cone, the point of which was
rounded and polished. This little point
was adjusted so as to depress the exac;
center of the cut.
Then he told me to 60 away and not
touch the spot until the next day. When
came at that time he dressed my arm
again, and this operation was repeated
for five days, when the wound was
healed. The silver cone was removed,
and there, sure enough, beneath it was
the prettiest dimple in the world And

,yERKED BEEF.

A great trade in dried or jerked beef
is being carried on in South America.
Thousands of tons are exported yearly
from Montevideo, Rosario, and other
parts of Uruguay and the Argentine Re-
public. In certain of the saladeros or
factories upward of 1000 cattle are
killed daily in the season, one man be-
ing usually the executioner OF the
whole, and dispatching them by pune
turing the spinal cord at the back of
the head. The animals are cut up and
the flesh piled in great heaps with lay
ers of salt, by semi-naked savages, half
Basque, half Indian, who have a pecul-
lar knack of causing the flesh to detach
itself in flakes. from the bone by giving
it stroke with their broad, cutlass-ike
knives. Wonderful quickness and dex-
terity are exhibited in every depart
ment of the process, but the. whole is
said to form one of the most disgusting
spectacles imaginable. Mixed with
black beans and farina, or cassava meal,
ierked beef becomes the staple food of
the lower orders throughout the coasts
of South and Central America.

THE LINCOLN MONUMENT.
Final Meeting ofthe Monument Asso-
eiRtiOn.

SPRINGFIELD, H., Oct. 24-The Lincoln
Monument association met at the Office of ex-
Gov. John NJ Palmer, and examined the re-
ports of the various committees and officers,
showing the work accomplished. 1t was
found that all the debts of the asso-
citation had beed paid that all the
records are complete, and nothing
remained to DO done by the asso-
citation except to provide for the future care
of the monument erected TO the memory of
the great patriot and emancipation. No dis
position of the money in the hands of the
treasurer was decided upon, except that for
the present it should not be disturbed 1t is
understood that the association has sum APP
proximating 5000 on hand. The revenue
from this amount, if the sum should be in
vested in securities would not be sufficient to
provide for the services of an efficient Gus
todian, nor would the principal last long if
used to pay for repairs, fuel, custodian and
other unavoidable expenses. The association
decided that the object for which it was
formed has been accomplished, and nothing
remains for it to do but to keep the monu-
ment and the grounds around it in repair
and opened for visitors, and to take care Of
the cash.

FRENCH POLITICS.
Meeting of the The Ton

PARIS, Oct. 24-The senate and chamber

the senate the minister of public works sub

it had been rejected by the budget committee

The Yellow Book recounts the operation of
the French forces in Tonquin. 1t says their

forcements to complete the pacifcation of
the country. The book also gives at length
details of the negotiations with
China, which have been conducted, it says
in good temper by both sides, France firmly
demanding the non-interference of China in
Tonquin affairs and the withdrawal of her
troops from the country, and China indicat-

Litigation.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24-In the suit of William
B. Dinsmore against the Central Railroad
company of New Jersey, James R. Keene,
called by Mr.. Gowen, testified that he was
familiar with stock transactions. The sign
ing of the bill in this transaction had a de-
pressing effect upon New Jersey Central So
sulities. 1t was the general opinion on the
street that the bill was signed for this
purpose. The effect of setting aside
lease by the order of the court would be to
depreciate the stock. The effect upon persons
who had sold snort, if tLey knew tie lease
would be Cancelled, would be to make them
hold out their shorts. Persons who knew
that this bill was to benefit, and sold short,
would make great deal of money, if the
lease was set aside.
