MORE ELEcrRlo LIGHTS.
a New Plant for illuminating the In
terror Denartm ent.


By September next the Interior Depart.
ment will be lighted by electric lights
The system used will be the Brush. 70
put in n complete plant will cost $4,000.
The number Of lights to he introduced is
500, which tt is thought will afford per-
feet system Of illumination The plant
has been purchased outright by Secretary
Villas, will he operated by the engineers
now in the employ of the Interior Ne.
partment, and will not, 1t is estimated,
add one cent to the running expenses of
the Department.
Outside Of the original cost--S1O, ,0OO-it
is expected that the introduction of thus
system will effect great saving. IL now
costs TO light the Department $500 per
month--S200 for gas and $500 for electric
lights. The electric lights now In use are
supplied by the local electric light com.
pany, IL is expected that the plant now
being put in will afford sufficient light, so
that practically ,all outside expense for
lighting the building can be dispensed
with.
The Interior Department is 80 con.
HtruGted thatmnch of its available room
would be utterly useless were it not for
the constant use OF gas or electric lights
Piled up on its lower floors are mustY old
patent and land papers, to which con-
ktdnL IeIefcnCe IN tne cause OF granting
patents has to be made.
A few years ago it was not an unusual
sight to see clerk with tallow dip in
one hand and pencil and paper in the
other, among the old moldy files making
n search of the record in some case on
which he was engaged, Ho was in con.
slant danger Ofsetting tire to the valuable
papers Which could not be replaced.
Among these papers in recent years tho
$50 electric lights, now in use in the De-
periment, were placed, and it has had the
effect of averting the constant danger TO
which the papers were formerly exposed,
and of facilitating the work of the clerks
in the dark hooks in the damp sub. base
ments where many papers are stored.
The Introduction on larger scale Of the
electric system will, il is thought, result in
more and better work
Men are now engaged in running the
wires in all parts of the building. The
dynamo will be placed in position about
the middle of August and the whole sys.
tenn be IN working order by September
In this matter Of electric lights the In.
terror Department is IN advance of all
the other Executive Departments.

POISONED FRUIT.
An Incident Showing the Terrible Con-
sequences of Unripe Fruit and the

An Incident Showing the Terrible Con-
sequences of Unripe Fruit and the
Mysterious Dangers OF the Season.
The inhabitants of the city of New
York became greatly excited recently be-
cause cargo of poisoned fruit was re-
ceiyed and distributed in the metropolis
from which several people became sick,
Poisoned fruit is bad en- ough, ii IS true,
but how about the green fruit that is sold
and devOured during the entire summer
How about the poison Gus water that is
drank by the millions in the cities of the
land every day. How about the hot
weather that prod uCes disease germs in
the air and in the water? All these are
pOisons far worse in their effects than a
Single cargo OF poisoned fruit, and men,
women and children have to fight against
them all summer long. But the question
is asked, what Cun we do? Unripe fruit
is shipped to the city, and we are often
compelled to eat that or none at all. The
water may be bad, but what can we
drink
There is only one way of absolutely
preventing these poisOns or checking
them before they produce ieyers, dysen'
terry, cholera or death, and that is by the
use of pure spirits. All doctors admit
this now, and pure whiskey is the first
thing that is always prescribed when
anybody is Frustrated with summer sick
ness. II is for this very reason that
Duily's Pure Malt Whiskey has become
so phenomenally popular, Is is superior
to ordinary whiskles for besides being
absolutely pure and free fromfusel oil, 4
contains medicinal properties which en-
able il to certainly kill all disease germs
that may be in unrpe fruit, poisoned
water or oyerheated air, Taken ina gas
of water 1t kills all poison that may pos
sibly be in the water; taken with q LITTLE
ice il becomes refreshing drink and {

story of a Misfit CONN.

Eighteen years ago g. ]. Vinoux, q
looksmith, OF San Antonio, Texas, made
himself a coffin. II stood in his shop and
be was fond Of pointing 1t out to visitors
dwelling upon its style of workmanship,
fit and other merits. He also had pleas
ant fashion Of lying down in IL, trying it
on, so to speak, and while in that posi-
ton, expatiating upon how comfortable
he would feel after death. Some time
ogo, having realized a handsome com.
potency, he retired from business, built
himself an elegant home and took HIM
self and coffin to the shades of private
life. Through his later years the coffin
was prominent article of furniture in
his bedroom. He died last week in the
seveDty-fourth year of his age. During
his retirement he had lived WELL accord.
ing to the fashion of the French nation,
and had taken OH much flesh. When the
time came to be placed in the iron
receptacle which his own hands had
fashioned, he obstinately refused to enter
it. The attendants pushed and pried,
but to no purpose, and Vinoux was
buried in common wooden coffin at last

has been working for Mr.. Garlitz the
other for Mr.. Stafflebeam. Saturday,
April 21st, the one working for Mr..
Stufflebeam asked to be excused until
the following Monday, stating he
wanted TO return home and prepare
his garden. He did not return on
Monday as promised and Mr.. Stuffie-
beam did not make known his absence
to his brother until the following Sat
urday. A visit to his house showed
that he had been there and leaving
had left the door open, for cow had
gone in and taken possession. His
fishing pole was the only thing miss
ing and the supposition is that he was
drowned or had been killed by light
ming as thunder storm passed over
that section that afternoon. Parties
are making a search for him, but
when last heard from had made nc
discoveries.
