Judge Buckley, in dismissing the case,
said
l have listened with great deal of interest
to the remarks OF counsel Tor the defendant and
must admit that have received a great deal of
information. This arrest arose from the fact
presume, that on yesterday, in deciding what
is called the wheel Of fortune case, a refer
ence was made by the Court to the fact that
from the testimony introduced in the case, the
Court was under the impression that pool sell
ing was percentage game, under Section $50
of the Penal Code. Possibly that reference IN
case and ought not 10 have been part of the
decision. The only re 9Son for il it was that the
defense undertook to show by all the witnesses
that the principle of the wheel of fortune
and pool selling" and "book-making'' was the
same ana IL was argued by the defendants
counsel that II was hardly right 10 arrest man
Tor conducting q wheel of fortune game
and allow pool-seiling aud book-makiug to be
conducted unmolested by the authorities. Hgv.
ing that in mind, that reference was made 10
pool-selling, not thinking at the time that any
serious results would flow or that any arrest
would follow. l am satisfied, however, after re
hectlon upon the matter, from the authorities
cited by Mr.. johnson, that was in error. And
my impression now is, from what have heard
TINS morning, that pool selling is not a game
prohibited by the laws of this State. In consult
tation with the Chief of Police, he agrees with
me that y is proper and legal to have this case
dismissed.
will say in reference to the Chief Of Police
that the course he took was one which he
had right TO take as an officer, and one which
ne was almost forced to take by reason OF the
Lacl that there were some persons in the CON-
munity who desired TO have what is termed the
gaming law enforced in its strietest sense, and
being called upon as an Official to do so he fer
II his duty to do it. But he agrees with me that
II is case that ought to be dismissed So think
ing, tue case win be dismissed.

Imported From Mexico, Clothed,
Trained and Used as Watch Charms.
From the New York HeraEd
An Industrious Mexican beetle in the
window of jeweler on upper Broadway
most every hour of the day. 1t is a curious
looking insect. and even persons well versed
natural history are unable at first sight
to tell exactly to what variety it belongs
1t looks like cross between a big black
spider and tumble bug.
The beetle has a velvety blue back, with
the legs of a spider. Around the neck is a
gold band attached to a thread that holds
the insect to a miniature human skeleton
The beetle crawls up and down the skeleton
with the regularity Of clock work So pre-
else are the movements that nearly every
one mistakes it for mechanical toy.
The other afternoon Walter B. Price
aud Senator Stadler spent some time pom
dering over the beetle II don't believe a
piece of mechanism could be as perfect as
that exclaimed the senator.
Mr.. Price, who Is a great student OF nat
ural history, insisted taat nature had never
constructed such looking insect, and as a
result of the difference of opinion wager
was made. | accompanied the two gentle
men into the store to decide Une wager.
The jeweler said it was a live Mexican
beetle.
"It is most curious insect he said,
land it is as busy as q bee. We have put
on a false back Of blue velvet to give it q
brilliant appearance. We do quite trade
in them. Ladies wear them IS charms to
their chains. The Baroness Blanc set the
fashion Of wearing them here in New York.
don't know just how long they live, but
know of several Of them that are over B
years of age.
II am at loss to understand how they
exist, for they never eat or drink. We
keep them in a show window case with our
watches. Some of them are very intelli-
gent, aud one of the clerks trains them to
doc number of things. II he whistles
they will come and crawl up his arm. They
are az cunning as 'possums. They turn on
their backs and pretend to be dead when
they scent danger. They sell for S. and up

beetle trained like circus animal and
dressed up like Haytian field marshal,

A WOMAN INVENTOR.
Her Combined Electric Land and Ma
rine Carriage.
From the st. Louis Republic.


SARATOGA, n. Y, July IA combina-
ton electric land and marine carriage, 8
very novel invention, is an object Of not
little curiosity and interest to those who
have seen it, and the Inventor herself, Mrs
Angie Truax, who with her husband are
residents of the well-known Frank Leslie
place, Intercarden, takes much pleasure in
showing it.
YES, am the inventor" said Mrs
TruaX, formerly known TO the stage as
Nine Schott. Il drew up the plans, made
out the specifications and have the patents
taken out in my own name, and why notl"
The writer saw no reason aud therefore
acquiesced.
Mrs. Truax is about IS years old, of
medium hight, and an exceedingly bright
and pleasant spoken woman. She is of New
York birth, and Travelled extensively in her
theatrical profession previous TO her retire
nent from the stage few yCars ago. Il
vas from a love Of travel that she con
Owed the idea OF her invention, which re-
embles two-seated side-bar surrey wagon
Fith top and of about the same length aud
| ,ruck. The wheels are like those of bicycle
but heavier. The steering apparatus Is
iplaced il front and connects with the front
axle by a gearing segment. The propelliug
power is connected with and turns the hind
axle by d system of gears. The electric
motor in this invention is the Important
feature, and it is with the greatest pride that
the inventor speaks Of it. 1t is placed in the
center and on the bottom of the carriage
and takes up but little room. 1t has a
vibrating armature instead Of rotary, and
this is where the little woman inventor
looks for the greatest results in her electric
motor, claiming that more power can be
obtained than from any other
form of rotary motor, and that the horse
power can be increased without the neces-
sity of constructing a larger motor, by
simply using more battery. With an eight
volt battery, a constant current can 0e
kept up for three hours, and this, too, at a
test speed of fifteen miles an hour. A dry
primary battery is to be used. Underneath
the carriage are air-tight metal tubes,
cigar-shaped, of suitable size to buoy up
the carriage and its load while crossing
deep streams, and to spokes of the hind
wheels are ingeniously secured little brass
paddles to propel the carriage through the
water, and so nicely arranged that they are
II no way liable to injury, nor do they in
terfere with road travel.
The carriage has many novel features,
such as electric lights, tent electric stove
for cooking and heating, and is altogether a
wonderful affair. A speed Of fifteen miles
all hour is now easily obtained, and the fair
inventor is confident Of being able to in
crease it TO thirty miles.
Mrs. Truax thinks she can apply all these
principles successfully TO aerial navigation,
aud she expects to skim the air yet on cleo
trio wings.

INroxICAT1oN BY RADIATION.

Instances in Which Men Have Been
Intoxicated by the Intoxication of
Others.
In a recent number of the PopltlG
Science Monthly there was given some u
teresting illus yrations of the well-autheEi-
stated condition Of intoxication from rsAa-
ton in cases where theindividual conceded
had not touched a drop of intoxicating
liquor
One instance was that Of prominent
military man, who had been accustoned to
drink with great moderation dung the
war, and had abstained entirely fom the
use Of liquor in any form from aat time
on While attending dinner win MS old
comrades where most Of them wee lntoxi-
Gated, this gentleman suddenly art without
premonition became hilarious, ntde silly
speech, after which he settled bck IN his
chair In a drunken state and nally was
taken home quite stupid and I'M condition
far worse than that of his colrades who
had been drinking. He had drunk no
spirits whatever, and had use only water
and coffee, and yet he showed il the symp-
toms that characterized the iroxlcatlon Of
the others, only his was Indication from
contagiou--the favoring soilhavlug been
prepared long ago.
Another interesting case vas that of
man who had been IA inebRte years ago,
but rad entirely reformed. After an cleo
con to office not long ago gave dinner
10 some friends, among wtm was ply
slcan, VINO gave the folloTng account OF
what occurred:
On 5ne occasion in quespn many OF the
guests became partially Intoxicated. and
The host, who drank noting but water,
became hilarious aud finlly as stupid as
The others. He was put bed with every
token of extreme intoxation, but recov-
cred, and the next moHng had only
confused notion Of whahad occurred.
Inc third case was TIT of q gentleman
VINO had been sober foItwelve years, and
an abstainer from all Srms Of liquor. He
rent on military e,Nrsion with party
q friends, who wereard drinkers, aud al
though he drank noting at all except lem
onade, ne became much intoxicated as
the others. This esnt was the subject of
much comment an criticism, and coca
stoned great loss tolim socially and in other
respects, in spiteof the fact that others
confirmed his 5atement that he had

tlon by radiation or contagion have at
eraetod a great Ral Of attention in a gen
erai way, ana 10 have aroused much dis

snoSe most ctnpetent to determine the
tduses OF thessingulsr manifestations is that
t tSese men ad been prepared, either
through through heralty or by certain previous
conditions sice lost sight of, for the recep-
t goa OF jui such influences. In short,
sner nerT!s systems had been nodded

such inf9nces through succession of
