A College where immortality
Practiced

CHICAGO, May 25. Mrs. Hester Faiey,
said TO he the wife of wealthy rapcher
near Stock ton, California, is detained in
the detention hospital suffering from
bysteria. She had preliminary exam
ination in Judge Prendegrast's court
today and told portion of her story.
It seem that she has been an enthusiast
for some time on the subject of meta
physics and left California for Dallas some
time ago and studied with a lady
there. Becoming dissatisfied she
came on to Chicago and went
into an establishment of West Side meta
physicians, where were several other stu
dents. She stayed there long enough to
assure herself, according to her story,
that they taught principally immortality,
and she left and went to her brothers
house. She told Judge Prenderga-t to-
day a startling story OF their practices
and he issued an attachment for them.

Look out !"
The reporter lodged back as If he had
Inadvertently touched an electric coil.
"Great heavens, man! Do you want
to burn your fingers p continued the mer-
chant, excitedly.
"What's the matter ?"
Matter enough. Those eyeglasses of
yours are framed 10 celluloid, and if you
keep twirling them around in your fin.
gers too near that gas jet you will have
an explosion.
The reporter placed the dangerous con-
trivance astride his nose, and the mer-
chant who is one of the largest dealers in
celluloid goods in the city, continued his
conversation where this incident had In.
terrupted it.
"Most celluloid is made in France.
Would you like to know how? Then
listen: A roll of paper is slowly un-
wound, and at the same time is saturated
with mixture of FIVE parts of sulphuric
acid and two parts of nitric acid, which
| falls upon the paper in fine white spray.
| This changes the ceIulose of the paper
into pyroxyline tgun cotton). The excess
of the acid having been expelled by press
ure, the paper is washed with plenty OF
water until all traces of acid have been
removed. 1t is then reduced to pulp.
and passes On to the bleaching trough.
1t is this gun cotton which gives it it's
explosive nature.
Most of the water having been got
rid of by means of stralner, the pulp is
mixed with from twenty to forty per
cent of it's weight of camphor, and the
mixture thoroughly triturated under mill
stones. The necessary coloring having
been added 10 the form of powder. sec.
end mixing and grinding follows. This
pulp is spread out in thin slabs, which
are squeezed in . hydraulic press until
they are dry as chips. Then they are
rolled in heated rollers and come out in
| elastic sheets. They are from that point
worked up into every conceivable form.
You can get celluloid collars, cuffs, hair.
pins, shirt fronts, cravats, penholders,
brushes and combs, inkstands, knife
handles, jewelry and everything else,
almost, that you can imagine. l have
seen in Paris room almost completely
furnished in celluloid. The curtains, the
| furniture. the ooorknohs and even the
mating were made of this material.
You may be sure no matches were ever
carried there. Indeed, the room was
never used 1t was only curiosity. and
| the man who owned it owned the factory
where it was made. These rooms will

this rapid age, care about being blown

ments, scorched and scattered, and that

Is one of the most fatal scourges which
it1lict mankind. 1t is often inherited,
but may be the result of improper vacci-
nation, mercurial poison, uncleanliness,
and various other causes. Chronic Sores,
Ulcers, Assesses, Cancerous Humors,
and. in some cases, Emaciation and Con-
sumption, result from scrofulous condi-
ton of the blood. This disease can be
cured by the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla.

REDUCTION OF LOCAL PASSENGER FARES
BY THE RICHMOND & DANyILLE R. r. Co.
EARLY this month the Richmond & Dan
vile R. R. will reduce it's local passenger
tariffs within the States of Virginia and
North Carolina to a basis of three-and-a
half cents per mile for first class and three
cents for second-class fares. This action
will make a considerable reduction in the
fares for short distances, at the same time
the rates for longer distances, which are
now about three cents per mile, will not
be increased. The saving, therefore, in
the cost of travel will be considerable in
the short trips which make up the bulk Of
the local passenger business of the roads
in this State. The voluntary reduction Of
its tolls by the above corporation fur
nishes an evidence of the desire of its
management to act literally with the peo-
pie, and being done as it is without com
pulsion, is an earnest Of a broad and en-
lightened policy of which its ever grow
ing interests and largely increasing traffic
are the. best proofs of successful results.

"A correspondent, writing the Neus
Observer from Yanceyyille, under date of
June 4th, says, on Saturday afternoon
about o'clock a severe hail-storm passed
over a portion of Caswell county,
between Yanceyville and L~easburg,
which was the most destructive to grow
ing crops that ver visited the county in
the memory of man. Its width was
about n and a half miles. The destruc-
ton of the wheat and oat crops was as
complete as if an army with brush had
gone through tramphng and beating, not
leaving a stalk Of either standing. The
wind blew a hurricane, uprooting and
breaking off hundreds of trees in its
course. Mrs. Fuller had a lawn with
quite a number of very fine oaks, firm,
thrifty and solid, eight of which succum-
bed to the terrible blast, breaking some of
them off, uprooting some. Those broken
appeared as solid as good timber should
be. Orchards were ruined, trees blown
down, the young fruit beaten or bruised
till of no value, corn was much damaged,
fields that a few days ago presented a fine
appearance and promised well, to-day are
sa bare as if nothing had been planted.

THE INTERSTATE FARMERS
ASSOCIATIONS.


This body was organized by the
lnter-Sta Convention of Farmers
which met in Atlanta, Ca, in August,
1887. 1t was a magnificent body of
oroad-mlnded, patriotic, representative
agrlculturists of the ten cotton States.
The Association was born of neces.
sity. The peculiar and languishing
condition of agriculture, especially in
the South, is a matter of intense in
terest and profound concern. To
reach a just conception of our environ
ments and to devise the wisest meth
DDS for relief, is the great and grand
object and purpose Of the Association.
In all departments Of industrial enter
prise in the South except in the great
field Of agriculture, we witness and
feel the inv~igorating pulsations of
quickened life and energy. There are
causes which have unbalanced the in
dustries of the country. They must be
readjusted 20 as to secure to agricul-
ture (the greatest of alD a fair show
ing in the race. To this end the
Inter State. Farmers Association was
organized.
It's next meeting will be held in the
city of Raleigh, n. O., on Tuesday,
2lst day of August next.
It will be composed of delegates
appointed by the Vice-Presidents of
their respective States-fve delegates
and their al~ternates, from each Con-
gressional district. Of course, all who
may come will be welcomed, but the
vote is limited by the Constitution of
the Association to five for each Con-
gressional district. .a,. -
