the fortunate possessor of one of these
wonderful stones.
Another is in the possession of John
Nelson, Of Savannah, Mo.
In May, 1888, Frederick Remy, of Red
Oak, was bitten by mad dog, as were
also six others of the same city, all of
whom went to try the virtues of the
Missouri stone. 1 believe Remy was
the only one that died of hydrOphobia.
He was bitten May L., and showed no
symptoms of the dread disease for
thirty-four days, or until June 81. lie
died after three days of terrible suffer
ing. | am unable TO tell you where the
maidstone is found, or how pDcured,
that is, to any degree of certainty, but
believe it is found in the bladder Of
deer and other animals of that kind,
perhaps in the gall bag instead of the
bladder. AT any rate, L think 1T is
found some place under the skin OF that
class of animals when found at all. 1t
is rarely found, however. Thomas
Padden, one OF the best-informed men
Ill the South, says that it is frequently
found in the South, but that most of the
sO-called madstoneS are of very low
grade, and are used on the bites of
snakes and stings of poisonous insects.
He also leaves the reader in blisSful
ignorance Of where the stone is found.

Several months ago Inspector Bvrnes
made the remark that there was no such

an expert burglar, after carefully study
ing the combination, could open any
safe III half an hour. In order TO fest
the matter, offered to send a safe tO
police headquarters, allow Inspector
Byrnes to procure the services OF any
burglar IN or out of prison, give him as

picking to blasting with powder.
I'VE will now go even further than
this. We will permit burglar to take
the machinery apart and inform him as

the use OF the time lock, defy him or

From Savagery to Civilization.
The Maoris, who inhabit the three
Islands situated in the South Pacific
ocean known as the colony of New
Zealand, are, mentally and physically,
the finest race of abOrigineS in the
world. They are cOpper-colored race,
not unlike the American Indians in tint.
The men are large and powerful, and
the women are mostly handsome.
The MaoriS are the only colored race
who use the tattoo to designate the
standing of their chiefs and princesses.
The Maori king has not spot on his
face that is not tattooed. In tattooing
they first boil the leaves of plant that
grows In the woods, making jet black.
Next they secure some peepee shells,
that are very sharp on their edges, and
laying the boy to be operated on On
his back, where he is held by two OF
three strong men, the tangi, or
medicine man, commences cut
ting scroll work on the boys face, lay
ing the flesh open with the edge of the
shell. He then lays the ink in the
wounds. On full-blooded chief it
takes from five to eight weeks to finish
the tattooing, and nearly year for it to
heal up. This is most painful mode
for decorating the person, but the young
chiefs are always very anxious to have
the operation performed.
One of the grandest sights in their
history was war dance performed by
over 5000 Maoris, led by Queen Emma,
queen of the Napuhl tribe. This woman
stands over six feet high and is built in
proportion. She is the best specimen
of her race to be found in the colony.
The war dancers work like a we'll
trained ballet, and dance without max
ing any false motions.
The Ma0riS are very industrious, and
you will find them tilling their lands all
over the country. They are not afraid
to work, and they have become a great
credit to their country.
