CHICAGO. June A bit of detective
work which illustrates how small the
world is now, has been developed here.
Two or three days ago Mayor Harrison
received formidable looking document,
the envelope of which was nearly yard
long. The contents of the document
were statement by Solomon Finkelstein
of Potlava, Russia, to the effect that
he was the owner of violin made in
1888 by master violin maker of Ger
many. The violin disappeared from
Potlaya in 1881 and at the same time
Isaac Horovalch failed to show up about
the village inn. Mr.. Finkelstein assured
the mayor that he was confident both
Horovalch and the violin were in Chicago.
The matter was placed in the hands of
detectives and yesterday they found
both the man and the fiddle. Horovalch
gave up the instrument willingly saving
it had only been borrowed,

IN the pleasant springtime when all
nature is gay and naught is heard al
eventide but the soft note of the frog en-
gagged in love-making, when the air is
soft aud balmy, then does the editor OF
the newspaper begin to hunt around fol
snake stories. The latest and the best
one of the season thus far comes from
Lewiston, Maine, and was specially tele
graphed TO the St Louis Globe Democrat
We regard il as by far the best snake
story of the season and give it in its
naked and serpentine beauty, without
emendation or alteration:
A shocking story comes from Grand
Falls respecting the sickness and death
of yonng man named David Ferguson
For the past six months despite the skill
of local physicians, he had been constant
ly losing flesh, with frequently chok
ing sensation IN his throat He was
startled one day by snake protruding its
head from his mouth and then suddenly
dropping back to its den. Ferguson ac-
Quainted his sister with the fact, and
urged her 10 catch hold of the reptile
She made two attempts, but the snake
Kissed so frightfully that she drew back
affrighted and both times the snake dis
appeared down the suffering mans throat
Finally he urged her not to be afraid
and told her that the next time he com.
planned and that the snake appeared sht
must grasp it and draw it out with a cloth
wound about her hand. She did so, anC
after a hard pull landed the venomous
thing at her feet. 1t appears that the
extremity of the snake had grown into q
portion of the body, and in extricatinl
the reptile blo0dsvessel was broken anC
the young man bled 70 death.

were taken out to Forty third street in the
evening. The strikers heard of the move

alton, on which all but dozen or so left the
scene The remaining men pleaded
their penniless condition in justifi

OF the strikers was appointed to take care Of
them. The men were taken to height oring
boarding houses, and instructions were Siven
TO the proprietors to care for them until
they found work and charge the hill to the
Switchman's union
All attempts of the railway men to move
the cars are frustrated by the strikers. An

were surrounded by crowd Of the
strikers who removed the draw bar keys,
completely disabling the cars While the
attempt was being made to reach
the sidetrack coupiing-pins and other oh.
structions were put in front of the wheels.
These were removed by the police, but just
as the engine was crossing the switch
some one tried to throw the swift h between

Triumphant Democracy" or Fifty
Years March of the Republic" is the
title of an elegantly bound volume by
Andrew Carnegie, the celebrated author
The aim Of the author is to show Amer
lea in her true light and endeavor 10 re-
move the prejudice toward her BY Great
Britain. To the whole body of Americans
he is anxious to give a juster estimate
than prevails in some quarters, of the
political and social advantages which
they so abundantly possess over the peo>
pie OF the older and less advanced lands
that they may be still prouder and even
more devoted, if possible, to their insti>
tntions than they are. The book in a
statistical sense, is also very valuable
work, and eau be purchased from Chas
