Janauschek's Diamo DIS


Nine Janauschek, the tragedienne,
may have loved her husband, L. L.
Pilot, but she also has a strong affec-
ton for her diamonds, as an expert
ence she had in Australia illustrates.
Mr. Pilot was acting as her manager,
and, being arrested for breach of con
tract, was threatened with imprison-
ment in default of a satisfactory bail
bond. Janauschek appealed to the
American consul at Sidney to become
her husbands surety. This he cheer
fully agreed to do if she would secure
him against loss. After much argu-
ment and dillydallying, she deposited
her diamonds with the consul, he
signed PILOTS bond and the husband
manager was a free man. Having i'm
ished her Australian tour, Janauscheck
prepared to return to England. She
went to her friend, the American con-
sui. and asked for her diamonds.
"You seem to forget madam, expos

the proper authorities and formally
withdrew from PILOTS bond. The
,esult was that Nine. Janauschek
sailed for England next day. accom-,

her husband, the helpless Pilot, was
detained in Australia and there re-
NAMED a prisoner for a period OF
three months This arrangement,
whatever its disagreeable features,
had one positive advantage. Japau-
schek knew where both her diamonds
and husband were.

AscentS Of Mont Blanc.

The following statistics about the
ascents of Mont Blanc were recently
published IN Norway: The first time
the mountain was assembled was in
August, 1856, by two Frenchmen.
During the ninety years from 1856 TO
1876 no less than 535 expeditions,
consisting of 661 persons, reached the
highest point, known as the
''Mona1 Oh. - Of unsuccessful attempts
rs we're made from 1867 to 1861,
while in the following fifteen years
no less than 420 are recorded fact
which shows how much mountain
climbing is developing in our days.
Among the 661 persons who assembled
Mont Blanc 3S5 were English, 10
French, Gncludlng the 72-yearold
Marquis Turenne and lady of II
summers), 20 Americans, 81 Germans,
80 Swiss (among whom Mile. Marie

climbers. The number of victims
claimed by Mont Blame during the
last century amounts to about thirty.

a wild Dnck PerpleXed.
Montreal Witness

Perhaps the most ingenious method
of getting a stock of hens is that prac-
ticed by a bachelor who lives in a Sc
Guided corner among the hills, dis
tant from his neighbors. The story
is told By the Pilot Mount Signal.
Discovering the nest Of wild duck
not far from his shanty, he removed
the eggs and placed an equal number
of hens eggs in the nest. In due time
the Wild duck found that she was the
bewildered mother of a flock of chick
ems. Not that she knew that they
were chickens. she did not know what
they were. Thoir bills were not right,
their feet were all wrong, and they
were of every color; they could not
swim and could not understand. A
more astonished wild duck was not to
be found in Manitoba The bachelor
placed his misbegotten chickens IN q
basket and took care of them, while
the old duck returned to a neighbor-
ing pond, feeling that she had IN some
way been shameful Y imposed upon.

that it contains. The peddler was
hunted up and forced to divulge his
secret. He had in his pocket small
bottle filled with sour paste in liquid
form. On entering an Office he would
offer to show the impurities in a drop
of water The drop would be brought
to him on his glass plate In the
most natural manner possible he
would draw his toothpick, which was
sticking in the invisible bottle, and
spread the water over the surface of
the glass. Just enough OF the sour
paste adhered to the toothplck and
was deposited on the glass to carry q
number of the lizards with It, The
glass, so prepared, would be placed
under the magnifer, and the water
would be found to be alive with
transparent lizards that seemed never
tired of flashing back and forth under
the glass. Dr. Shillito exposed the
trick to a number of friends last even
ing, after having successfully made
them believe that it was the water
alone that they were examining.

had come to the convention under the misap
prehension that it was called for for the pur
pose of discussing the needs of the industrial
interests of the country, and, after views hat
been expressed, of issuing a platform en-
bodying the sense of the meeting. Ill

that a majority of those present were pr
