LEADING CARTOONISTS.
Men Whose Pencils Serve to Shape

The Advent OF caricature in America begins
with njamin Franklin who used pictures
whenever he desired to strongly effect tho
peoples mind, and appeal to tho many who
were not able to read, using that means to
create an indelible impression
Later, in the days OF Jefferson. there being
no burlesque artist, the politicians adopted
an idea from Catholic times by employ
ing stuffed figures and burlesque PROFESSIONS
called afterwards "Rag-a-muffins," in
lieu of caricature. In Charleston, s. c.,
the Democrats erected platform in a public
square, on which were dressed figures duly
labeled, representing the different characters
they wished to hold up to the execration Of
the crowd. During the Know Nothing excite

Wizards Rise and Fall.


One Of the most remarkable personal move
ments Of the present day is Henry Wizards
resumption Of a residence in his native land.
1t is now said that he will make Berlin his
future home, and it is probable that he will

government service. His knowledge of
American affairs would render him Of tho
highest use to Bismarck, while he could add
TO this lucrative banking business
having the confidence of both continents,
This prospective change shows how easily
the best calculations yield to circumstances,
year ago Willard was at the head of one
Of the grandest Of American enterprises, and
felt so assured of his success that he gave
that splendid excursion which must long
stand unrivalled. He was then estimated at
S,00O,0 900, and was building house whose
cost was figured at $500, 600. His name was
daily paragraphed and went the rounds of
the press, with all the applause due to one
who had conquered the greatest obstacles
and given success to an enterprise which, in
the hands of Jay Cooke, had proved so great
failure. How rapidly this brilliant display
was followed by misfortunel Then came the
sad news Of a general collapse, and Henry
Willard soon sank beyond hope Of recovery.
His was the first Of that remarkable series Of

DO THE EYES OF THE DEAD
Retain the Last Impressions Re-
ceiyed I'm Lifei
TIntrr Oce.n1

Inter Ocesll
A Philadelphia photographer suggested to
the authorities that the murderer of Ella
Watson. whose body was found horribly
mutilated near Salem, n. j., recently.
might no detected by the use Of bis art. and
asked permission to experiment on photo.
graphing tho eyes Of the dead girl with tho
hope OF finding there the picture Of the last
object on which they rested in life which
must have leen her murderer. This hope
was based upon n fact which has been es-
tablished by curious Investigation of the
French police.
BY French scientists II is claimed that in
cases Of sudden and violent death, under Ger.
tain circumstances the retina Of the eve re-
tains an impression Of the last object seen
Mt the instant when death occurred. This
impression has been reproduced by the cam.
era, and, In one or two instances. IL is
claimed, has led TO important results. The
face of a suspected murderer has been thus
reproduced, and a fair photograph Of his
features presented.
A resident Of Philadelphia, who has made
many experiments Of this kind, claims TO
have proven thai this theory il correct by
having man shoot COW, standing directly
in front OF the animal at the time, so that
hGr eyes rested upon him. The eyes were i'm.
mediately after photographed on a small
plate, and the impression afterward enlarged
to solar print nearly twenty inches square,
which showed the outlines OF the man i'm the
act of shooting.
1t was hoped that this method might be
employed with success in discovering the
murderer Of Ella Watson, but the remains
had been buried before the plan was sug-
gestcd to the police.
This same theory was advanced by de-
tectives in Chicago last spring when the
Wilson murder was attracting so much at
tention, but no experiments were made, and
the plan was also suggested as means Of
detecting the murderer OF Fora Burns
at Lincoln, Ill, but the detectives in
both cases evidently had little faith in the
theory, for they did not seek to demon.
strate its truth or falsity even when all
others had failed.
