Miertl SlOrN.

In front of the house No. 1913 Steiner
street stands weeping-willOw tree, to all
outward appearances dead and i'm the first
stages of decay. Every leaf has fallen from
its bOughs and twigs, and it forms a striking
contrast to sister willow diagOnally across
the street, which is fully clothed in green
and presents a most vigorous and healthful
appearance. According to those who live in
the vicinity the decay and death of the tree
were marked by cOincident features in the
life and death of the man who planted it,
which, To say the least, were very mysteT-
iOus. Two gentlemen have communicated
the facts in the case to the Call, each being
unknown to the other, and therefore each
being unacquainted with the fact that the
other had 50 communicated. Their story Is
that some fourteen years ago Il. J. Collins, a
painter by trade, changed his residence from
Bartlett street, in this city, to No. 1913
Steiner street, taking with him a small
weeping willow tree. He set the shrub out
| OH the outer edge of the sidewalk, directly
| in front of the house. He guarded and
| cared for II, ana II grew ana nOurlsned and
spread its branches wider and wider and
| lifted its head higher and higher from the
| ground until il became Il splendid tree and
an ornament to the block. Collins took con-
siderable pride in it, and often remarked
| that the tree would die when he did, but this
was always accepted as pleasantly and no
one paid any more attention to it than would
| be given to any other odd cOnceit which
person might have concerning something in
which he took considerable pride. About
| two months ago Mr.. Collins was taken sick
and two weeks ago died. Attention was
called to the tree during the latter part of
Mr. COllins's illness, and it was found TO be
rapidly shedding its leaves. A little inquiry
and comparison of notes showed that the
leaves began to wither and fall about the
few days after his funeral it presented the
appearance of being dead, and certainly
looked so to a reporter of the Call when he
visited the place yesterday. One of the gem
tlemen referred to above said that ''the life
of the tree went out with the life OF Col
lins." San Francisco Call.

Cunning for Milkmaids.

Miss Minnie Rose, the adopted daughter
of Mr.. William A. Rose, of Stony Point, n.
y. was milking cows near her house on
Monday, when she was seized by man
dressed i'm sportsman's clothes, with gun in
hand. and carried off. She screamed for
help, but the ruffian declared he would shoot
her if she screamed any more. She was
taken to a wood two miles from the house
and there kept until Tuesday night. On
Wednesday morning she escaped and re-
turned home. She says the fellow maltreat-
ed her. She tasted no food from the time
She left the house until her return. She de-
scribes the man as short, dark complexion
and thick set and evidently an lrishmap.
Miss Rose is about sixteen years of age, OF
blonde complexion and of fine form. She has
ALWAYS borne good characteri III the neigh
bOrhoOd.
The supposition is that the man fled to the
mountains as soon as the girl escaped ana
made his way to Greenwood, on the Erie
Railway, which is the nearest station from
the place i'm which the girl was held prison
er. Her description of her captOr was gwen
IN her adopted mother in clear and honest
manner. lie is stranger at Stony Point.
None can place him by her description. Her
Injuries have made her quite feeble. Her
wrists and arms are much bruised where the
ruffian grasped her in taking her away. AT
the time Of the abduction she wore q dark
gingham dress and plain knit hood, tied
| close TO her face, which gave her a very
pretty appearance. She said every time she
made a move to escape he threatened to
shoot her dead. She watched her OppOrtu-
nitv and during his temporary absence she
escaped to the public highway and reached
home.

involuntary ylesmerisDI.

Yesterday a rather remarkable case came
under the notice of the police OF this city,
which, for want of a better definition might
be termed case of involuntary mesmerism.
August Brudel, a railroad laborer, met an
old friend whom he had not seen for long
time named A. Whitfield. They had been
comrades and were much attached to one
another. Scarcely had they exchanged
greetings before Brudel began TO act in an
Extraordinary manner. He would mimic
Whitfield's every motion, gesture and word,
all the while staring at his friend with face
distorted like that of madman.
The two sat down to dinner at the Nation
| al Hotel. and Brudel ordered the same food
| that Whitfield did, and kept perfect time TO
| the motion of his arms and mouth. This
action was so curious that Whitfield walked
down TO the police station and gave his
friend over to the police authorities. 1t was
thought the man was stricken with neryOnS-
ness or mesmerism, and Doctor Wheeler was
called in to decide the matter. The meSmer
lied man changed from Whitfield To the doc
tor. and upon his commands would do any
thing. When told to stretch out his arms 1
was impossible to force them down. WheI
undergoing the examination he made a dasl
at Captain Hair with the roar of bull. Ha,
he succeeded in grasping him there IS no tell
ing what he wOnld have done, but upon tn
. command of the doctor would again suLSld
into quiet mood. Portland, Ore, News.

mainder of their days. Arthur de
clined the offer, but about -four weeks
ago another son, Walter, heard of the
proposition and offered to take it.
When the subject was broached Mrs.
Deland declared that she never would
consent to Horace's leaving home
Walter replied that he did not see that
it was anv harder for Horace to leave
and seek work elsewhere than it had
been for the Others" Horace heard
this, and from that moment he appeared
to be depressed and moody. Those who
knew hun in the village noticed that
he was quieter and more preoccupied in
his manner than was usual with him,
but nobody realized the extent TO which
his mind was affected by this morbid
dwelling upon what most people would
regard as comparatively smal! trouble.
That he had suicidal thoughts for some
time is indicated by his remark to a
friend who spoke of procuring 9 cattle for
the fall work: 81 shap't need any cattle
to plough with | don't think | shall
plough this fall" There is no doubt
that it was a case of determined suicide
and although the motive cause seemed
slight and trivial, it is all that can be
assigned by those who knew the boy
well. Boston Globe.

DIAMONDS FOR DRILLS.
The Apparatus by Which Deep Rock
Boring Is Accomplished.

bOrlnS Is Accomplished.
Diamonds are comparatively cheap
nowadays" a Ioek-&rill manufacturer said
to reporter, ''and the diamond set bits
used in the diam end drills do not cost
as much as they did,"
Are genuine diamonds used in these
drills, or are they called diamond drills
because the steel has an extremely hard
temper" the reporter asked.
Diamonds are used in the drills.
They are chiefly one and two carat
stones, At present they cost about $50
carat. They are in the rough. The
diamond set is hollow. 1t is steel
thimble, having three rows of diamonds
imbedded in it, so that the edges OF
those in one row project from its face
while the edges Of those in the other
two rows project from the outer and
inner periphery respectively. The dia-
monjs of the tilst-mentioned row cut
the path of the drill in its forward pro-
gress, while those on the outer and inner
periphery ofthe tool enlarge the cavity"
"Do tn e diamonds wear OUT"
Their edges which come in contact
with the rock get little smooth. and
then they are taken out and reset, So
that fresh edge is presented"
"How are the diamond drills work
sd?"
"By rapid rotation, varying anwhere
| from 400 to 900 revolutions 4 minute,
There are different machiLes used fol-
different kinds OF drilling. For deep
boring a machine with double Oscillat-
ing cylinder engine is used mounted on
an upright or horizontal tubular boiler
The machine has a screw shaft made oi
. heavy hydraulic tubing from FIVE to sew
en- feet in length, with deep screw cut
in the outside. The shaft also carries a
{ spine, by which it is feathered to the
lower sleeve gear. This gear is double
and connects by its upper teeth with a
beyel driving gear, and by its lower teeth

gust with a cargo of lumber for Tam
pico. She was tight vessel, taking in
but very little water and requiring but
little use of the pumps. On the fifth
day out of Mobile Capt. Kendrick himself
tried the pump and found no water
that is. none above the five inches play
allowed between the lower end of the
pump and bottom of the hold. An hour
or two afterward the mate happened TO
try it, and TO the great establishment Of
the captain, reported twenty inches of
water. The water was pumped out but
was soCn found to be running in again
at the rate of nearly twelve inches an
hour. This was near the bottom, and of
course the rate ofleakage would diminish
as the elevation of surface of the water
and extent of its cross section would in
crease. 1t was enough, nevertheless, to
create alarm, and to keep the crew con-
tinually employed at the pumps during
the passage to Tampico, and while dis
charging the cargo, these efforts were
redoubled. 1t was fully ascertained that
the leak was not near the water line-as
had been hoped-but at the bottom OF
the vessel. Finally, the mate, cropping
and exploring about the bottom, reported
that he had found horn sticking in the
ceiling or inner lining of the timbers,
which he could not remove. He was
told to break it of and at length brought
up about two inches of what the captain
at once recognized as the end of the blade
of a swordtish.
On further examination it was found
that the blade had penetrated, in the
first place, the copper sheathing OF the
schooner; then the outer timbers of the
hull, four inches in thickness; next a
vacant space of nine inches between the
outer and inn r tinb eTs or ceiling" and
lastly four and half inches more OF solid
wood constituting the ceiling, altogether
nearly nine inches of plank and copper
with eleven inches of vacant space, In
cluding the two inches of the end broken
off. How much ofthe sword remained
outside has not vet been ascertaiDed
The blow was struck from below. in 6
direction nearly vertical, an some idea
of its smazing force may be found frcn
the figures above given. The point o
| impact was little forward of The mizzen
mast, about three feet from the keel, OF
the starboald side. By tearing away
part of the ceiling Capt. kendrick wa
enabled partially to stop the leak and t
bring his vessel first to Appalachicols
and thence back to Ship Island, where
he was sent for quarantine, although h'
had clean bill of health. This is, NJ
doubt. the most extraordinary case o
piscatorial swordsmanship on record
There is no room for question Of its en-
tire truthfulness. The fragment of tn
sword is still sticking in the bottom o
the schooner, and will be available 70

docket for repairs. New Orleans Times

by Mrs. King, Secretary of the Rational

The Haberton idea consists of q skirt
separated practically in'o two skhts for
Its entire length, and the whole covered
clear out of sight by an overskirt OF
usual length, o that to the outside OBJ

Saws a writer in the Nineteenth Cen. |
tury: One afternoon, few years ago,
was sitting in my chambers IN the Tenn
pie, working at some papers. My desk
is between the fireplace and one of the
windows, the window being two or three
wards on the left side Of my chair, and
looking ont into the Temple. Suddenly
became aware that l was looking at
the bottom window-pane, which was
about on fevel with my eyes, and t..ere
I saw the figure cf the head and face of
my wife, in reclining position, with
the eyes closed and the face quite white
and hloodless, as if she were dead.
pulled myselftogether and got up
snd looked out of the window, where 1
saw nothing but the houses opposite and
/ came to the conclusion that had been
drowsy, and had fallen asleep, and after
taking a few turns about the rooms to
rouse myself, sat down again to my
work and thought no more of the mat
ter.
Invent home at my usual time that
evening. and while my wife and l were
at dinner she told me that she had
lunched with friend who lived in Glou.
cester, and that he had taken with hei
, little child, one of her nieces, who
was staying with u; but during lunch
or lust after it, the child had fall and
slightly cut her face SO that the blood
. came. After telling the story, my wife
added that she was so alarmed wher
she saw the cAild's face that she faint
ed.
4 What I had seen in the window then
' occurred to my mind, and / asked he
what time it was when this happened
/, She said, as far as she remembered, i
must have been few minutes after
r O'Clock. This was the time, as nearly a
t I could calculate, not having looked a
q my watch, when saw the figure in tn
window pane. I have only to add tina
} this is the only occasion on which
