A SnaIl's Extra Eve.

German professor spent twenty years
In studying the habits and characteristics
of certain snail and learned this inter
esting fact concerning il. On the Pacific
coast OF America, where 1t is found in
great abundance, 1t is preyed upon by q
certain fish which abounds in the Pacific
ocean. AS an aid in escaping from its
formidable enemy 1t has been provided
with an eye on the back Of its head. The
same snail is found on the Atlantic coast
exactly like its far western brother in
every particular except that II has no pos.
terror eye. And the reason for this is that
there is no corresponding fish TO prey
upon 1t in the Atlantic ocean Boston

Sleeping Cars for Ladies'.

Use Of Dogs In Warfare.

The use of dogs in warfare is no new
thing. As long ago as 1476 the battle of
Grandson was fought and won largely
by fighting dogs. The Spaniards en-
ploped them extensively in their brutal
work in South America. Vasco Nunez
took regiment of dogs with him, and
in one combat alone they are reported
to have strangled more than 1000 In
dians. Pizarro, assuredly one of the
most ruthless warriors who ever led q
Spanish army of the grim old type, nat
urally did not neglect such potent aid,
and his dogs did much to win the battle
of Caxamalca. So valiantly, indeed, did
they comport themselves, that it was Or
dered from Madrid that henceforward
the regiment Of dogs should receive reg
ular pay on the same footing as the hui
man soldiers. History does not say who
pocketed the money. Even our own
"chivalrous" Henry III joined a con-
tingent Of 400 fighting dogs to the army
he sent to aid Charles V in his wars
with FrancisI. The nations of antiquity
Of course set us the example in this as in
so many other things.-Chicago Times.

Building Paper for Decorative Purposes.

nuhiuin8 rhper hof DecofatiSe futposess
Building paper is now used by anna
teurs with good effect for decorative
purposes. A frieze recently seen had a
conventional design which had been ap-
piled with water, giving it the appear
ance of leather. The stencil is laid upon
the paper, and the open spaces are moist
ened with water, which causes the paper
to swell slightly. the covered portions Of
the design being correspondingly de-
pressed. Gold, bronze, or color may be
used to give enrichment; the paper may
have the designs traced in the ordinary
manner with the aforementioned ma
terials. The red brown tint Of the paper
harmonizes with almost every tint. II
may be used for door panels or screens.

A destructive Fire.

PITTSBURGH, December pa connagra'
ton at Grecnsburg, Westmoreland county,
Pa, this morning destroyed one OF the
finest blocks in the city, and for several
hours thu eatened destruction TO the entire
business portion OF that thriving place.
The fire was discovered at O'Clock, and
is supposed to have originated in SeRple's
hardware store. The fire apparatH was
wholly inadequate, and the flames quickly
srread to the adjoining buildings,
and 1t was not until O'Clock
this morning that the flames were
under control. Ten buildings were
consumed, including the Laird House,
semple's hardware store, the old Press
office, Caleb Starke's dwelling, and four
stores. The Laird House was the largest
and finest hotel in Greensburgh. 1t was a
brick building, four stories in height, aud
finely furnished. The guests were all sound
asleep when the FIRE started, and many oil
them barely escaped from the building In
their Dight.clothes. The loss is estimated
at 100000. No one was injured.

At the time OF her birth her father, Cap
tain j. :. Cunningham, was a resident OF
Missouri, whittier he had removed from
Illinois. She was scarcely more than an
infant when he removed back to Illinois.
It is not surprising, therefore, that Mrs.
Logan has scarcely any recollection what
ever Of her life while In Missouri. She
was married to John A. Logan No
yember -, 1865, and was living in
Southern Illinois when he entered
the army. Their first child, daugh-
ter, was then but little more than
two years old. On account OF the pro-
southern sympathies Of her neighbors Mrs.
Logan spent the greater part OF her time
with her husband. sharing the yicissitudes
Of his life as soldier. She did this
throughout the whole Of his military ca-
reer as far as was practicable. At the
close of the war General Logan and his
wife made their residence at Carbondale,
the Generals native place. They resided
there until September, 1871, when they re-
moved to Chicago.
Mrs. Logan, who was educated at st.
Vincent's Academy, near Morganfeld, KY,
Is gifted with extraordinary conversational
powers, the effect OF which is heightened
by her personal grsceS. She is slightly
above the medium height, has an excellent
figure, and moves with the amiable dignity
OF perfect lady. Her hair is almost white,
but so abundant that, were 1t not for its
color, its owner would be taken to be not
more than thirty years OF age. A few years
ago 1t was as jet black as that OF her hus.

Others would do under The circumstances.
They had done nothing wrong. and he an
ticifaied that when we come TO examine
what we have got we will lind 1t all In the
same condition as she received Il.
This ended the talk on the subject. Be
fore going to bed Rooert Pinkerton visited
the Times Office aud corroborated In his
statements all that had been SAID by Mrs.
Witrock. He refused to give minutes Of
the transaction, but declared that no
promises or Inducements were held out TO
Witrock 10 make confession that WHIST
ever he did was done voluntarily, without
a promise that he would not be prosecuted.
II could not be ascertained whether add.
tional arrests viii be made or not.
YoRTY.FIvE THOUSAND RECOVERED,
II was learned nj a late hour last night
that Detective Pinkcrton came to this city
in response to a summons from Mrs. Wit
rock, {" jim Cummings mother, who In
formed him (Pinkerton) that she had im-
portant information. When Pinkerton
arrived at Mrs. Witrock's house he was
banded express packages containing
$22,000 in currency, which Witrock hld
sent 10 bis family after the robbery, send
ing word by the messengers who brought
the money that he had won 1t by gambling
and speculation. He directed his family
10 keen the money secreted for him. as he
had shot man Ia Chicago, and told them
that IL would he attached for damages, and
that he was obliged TO leave Chicago on ac-
count Of the shooting. The money had
not been disturbed, and was In the original
wrappers. Dir. PinkertOn will probably
remain here during tomorrow. Ii Is sup.
posed that Witrock, during his visits to
this city, hid large sums Of the money
stolen, and that he will now turn 1t over to
the detectives. They have already re-
covered Of the stolen money about
$4,000.
TIE REPORT CONFIRMED.

plnkerton TODAY confirms the report that
biz detectives took Witrock to Leayen-
worth, where hi. mother lastn night delivered
to The officers about $4,000 OF the stolen
money.
HAGGHT'S COMPLETELY.
CHICAGO, December 29.-It l. stated that
convincing proof OF HATS completely in
the Frisco express robbery Is in posses
sion OF the PinkertoDs, and there Is no
doub. thlt Haight was the instigat0r OF the
crime and NIeaner and Witrock were his
partners. II was Haight, It is said, who
conceived the idea OF writing to j. B.
Barrett, route agent, in order to get
copy Of that geDtleman's letter-heads.
TIalght also had bogus business cards
with the name OF "W. y. DAM
sell, superintendent" on them. The
Pinkertons have learned that the plotters
tried to have these etter.heads and
cards printed in st. Louis, but they were
either afraid to do so OF could not do so,
and they had the work done In this city by
a firm that has admitted It to detectives,
and told, still further, that IIaight was the
man who gave the order. IL was on these
leiter.heads and cards that the orders were
written and used As means TO get Witrock
on board the expres'-car with Fothering-
ham.
