The Palatka daily news. (Palatka, Fla.) 1884-1888, 1886-10-12

Away out on the Pacific coast poor, weak
man sought to disprove the allegation that
women by choice always sit down on the
floor or ground to put on or off shoes and
stockings. He placed some benches ON the
beach, where a number of young ladies were
in the habit of occasionally going to wade in
the water. They came and gleefully took
possession of the benches, but when they
made up their minds that they wanted to wade
down they all sat on the ground to unlace
their shoes. Next day this poor, weak man
had his servant spread broken glass, oyster
shells, etc, on the beach and then waited,
only to see the girls at wading time indus
triously clear away the stuff until they had
room enough to sit down. Then he went
away and marveled-Chicago Herald

Choral And It's Effects.

The action of choral hydrates is very similar
tn that of opium, but it does not lessen the
pain nor contract the pupils of the eyes to the
same extent. 1t does weaEea the action of tho
heart and lessen the production of heat in the
body to a far greater degree than opium 1t
induces sleep in doses that are not dangerous,
and the unpleasant effects of moderate doses
of opium are avoided by its use. The fatal
dose is large one Its taste and odor are
alike unpleasant to most people, hence the risk
of acquiring an appetite for it are not so great
with the latter drug The habit, once
formed, is much easier to give up than that
of opium eating. The treatment of case of
choral poisoning is exactly the same as for an
overdose of opium. One important fact to be
remembered in such n case is to scrupuloIsly
avoid the loss of animal heat. Not attending
to this point has cost many lives. The patient
should be kept warm; the stomach must be
emptied of its contents and stimulants should
he given to keep up the action of the heart
until the poison has n chance to escape by the
lungs and kidneys-St. Louis Globe-Demo

SI<idding Logs with Steam.

One of the first things that attracts the
attention of visitors to Mr. Fosters crane,
near Fairchild, is the famous steam skidder"
the only one in the state. 1t is great sight
to witness two or three huge logs being drag
ged, from n distance of tbirty-five rods, over
brush, fallen trees, stumps, etc, as if they
were nero sticks, and dumped on top of a
huge pile alongside of the track And to do
all this requires only one man to manipulate
the levers on the steam engine and one way
off where the logs lie to put the chain around
them 1t makes no difference if the logs to
be drawn are beneath a pile of other logs or
fallen trees The momsnt the chain is put
around them off they so, the forward end
somewhat elevated and the rear end dragging
over any obstruction in the way. Sometimes
the whole load makes leap of several rods
without touching the ground. Augusta (yvis.)

A Rich Clean Up" in Prospect.

Frequent and heavy fines, inflicted upon
those who violate the regulation prohibiting
hydraulic mining, has resulted in the virtual
closing of this business One effect of this is
lie noticeable clearncss of the Feather,
American, Yuba and Sacramento rivers,
which used to be red and muddy. For
twenty five years these rivers haven't been so
clear as during this season. For several
years work has been carried on in the big
tunnel intended to divert the waters of the
Feather river, that the bed of the river
could be worked for gold. Recently water
was turned in, but it was found that the tun-
mel was not large enough to carry all the
water of the river. 1t will take several
months to enlarge the tunnel, but when this
is done there is no doubt that a rich clean
up Will be made.-New York Tribune

VANISHING OF A LADY.
Wonderful Trick by a London Conjurer,
Done without Leaving the Stage.

Wonderful Trick by n London Conjurer,
Done Without Leaving the Stage.
Perhaps the best merit of a conjurer is the
ability to devise new illusions; and this merit
Buatier de Kolta possesses in a high degree.
His latest trick is the vanishing of lady. 1t
is the most startling and effective illusion
which has been brought out since the Sphinx
originally astonished and delighted the world
"A score of years ago or more. Buatler de
Kolta is now performing the feat nightly at
the Eden theatre, in Paris with so great sue
that he has been compelled to postpone
his promised visit to London, where he had
intended appearing at the Egyptian hall dur
ing the autumn tour of Messrs. Maskelyne s.
Cooke
This trick was brought to England by NJ.
Verbeck who did it last year at the Picca-
dilly hall; but Mr.. Bertram accomplishes it
without the aid of assistant and without
leaving the stage. Mr.. Bertram takes a large
newspaper which he unfolds in the center of
the stage to cut off communication with any
possible trap door. On this newspaper he
places chair. In the chair he places a young
lady, who crosses her hands in her lap over
her lace handkerchief. After she has ap-
parently been rendered insensible by inhala-
tions, Mr.. Bertram produces enormous
black silk handkerchief, about five feet wide
by seven feet long This he brings down to
the audience to show that it is not in any way
prepared, and the spectator can see that the
silken stuff is thin enough to be translucent.
With this flimsy shawl Mr.. Bertram COM
pletely covers the young lady, carefully adj
justing it to the floor, and as carefully tying
1t behind her head
When all has been done regularly and in
order, and there is only to be seen the figure
Of the young lady as she sits in the chair, en-
shrouded in the black veil, Mr.. Bertram sud
denly snatchcs away the silken shawl, which
disappears from his hands at once The
young lady has vanished; the chair stands
there empty, save that there remains on the
seat the lace handkerchief she had held in her
fingers; it has fallen from the touch of a van
ished hand. Amid the applause which this
strange disappearance calls forth, Mr. Ber-
tram steps To the door at the side of the stage
and leads on again the young lady who Wont

Wheat on the Sage Brush Land

In the spring of 1888 the land department
of the Central Pacific railroad decided to
make a faithful experiment of wheat grow
ing ON she sage brush land of Nevada with
out irrigation. At first the experiment was
a partial failure, but this year has proved a
most gratifying success, the land yielding
fifteen bushels to the acre, and the quality of
wheat being good. The result of this expert
ment would seem to indicate that the sage
brush land of Nevada is worth something
after all, in which case the state may become
something more than a pocket borough.

The Fisheries Question.

Col. Kirke D. Pierce, of Boston, n nephew of
President Pierce is stopping atthe'Riggs. He
is here as the ally of the American Fishery
Union of New England, having Just rctured
from the west where he had conferences In
the leading cities bordering on the great lakes
with parties engaged in the prosecution of the
fisheries there, ana in the navigation of the
waters, with the view of taking action to pre-
vent the appointment of an international COM
mission TO consider the desirability of renew
ing the reciprocity treaty between Canada and
the United States which lapsed June 80, 1885.
Under the treaty oflSlS Canadian ships were
permitted to fish within three miles of the
American coast and enter their oargoes on
payment of Sc cents for every liz pounds.
American ships were allowed to fish within
three miles of the Canadian coast, and many of
them were run down By the British cruisers
and Conisclted for alleged trespass OF the
limit line. In 1873 the reciprocity treaty was
passed, by which mutual privileges were
granted under which the fishermen of either
county could fish in any water Ond run into
any port belonging TO the other country, and
Canada could land her fish in American ports
free of duty. The effect OF this treaty, accord
ing - the showing of the American Fishery
Union, has been almost entirely to the advan-
tnEe of Canadian and the detriment of Amerl-
can fisheries,
