EFFECTS OF CHLOROFoRM.
How Burglars Administer the Anaestheti'
to Sleeping Persons.

How Burglars Administer the Anacsthctic
to Sleeping Persons.
II saw statement from some anony-
nous scientific man in the newspapers
the other day." said a prominent physi-
clan to me to-day, assuring people
that they need be in no fear of the use
OF chloroform by burglars. as it was
impossible to administer chloroform TO
sleeping person without waking him
up. But that Is a mistake. 1t is true
that chloroform can not be administer
ed in the usual way by holding cone
containing sponge or cloth saturated
with chloroform to the face. without
waking person up, if he be asleep
But it is not to be supposed that bur-
glars would administer it in that waT.
10 do that they would have to secure
an entrance into the house and the bed
room first; but one of their objects in
administering chloroform is to en-
able them to break into the room
without awakening the inmates.
This can be done easily enough
by simply injecting chloroform
into the room through the key
hole. or any other aperture, with II
syringe Chloroform is very volatile,
and the air of the room will soon be-
come sufficiently charged with it to
produce an unusually deep sleep or
stupor, which is all that is needed to
make the sleeper unconscious Of the
p ing of the loci;s o. prying of win
dows. Once in the house. more choloro-
form can be poured on the bedding
and the victims be brought completely
under the influence. This is what has
been done repeatedly, and see no bene-
fit to be derived from putting people off
their guard about such a danger. 1t is
better TO have them understand 1t SO
fully that any unusual ado in their
rooms or any extraordinary drowsi-
ness will excite their suspicious and
even wake them up when sleeping. =

THE SUN AND STORMS.
Connection Between Solar Disturbances
and Atmospheric Phenomena.

Connection Between Solar Disturbances
and Atmospheric Phenomena.
Prof. Balfour Stewart, of England,
and other scientists have long been of
the opinion that the periodic disturb
ances on the sun, called sun-spots, have
physical or magnetic connection with
the storms on earth. The coincidence
between the solar disturbances and the
terrific storms of the past summer, to
go no further back, is striking, and to
scientists almost forces the conclusion
of physical connection. On the .tif-
teenth of March a certain sun spot
showed intense action, and at that time
the great Samoan hurricane occurred,
wrecking the war-ships of the United
States and Germany in the harbor of
Apia. On the twenty-ninth and thir-
tieth of May the solar disturbance re-
appeared. and another series of storms
was reported by telegraph from all
quarters of the globe. brought most
vividly to our recognition by the cloud
burst in the mountains above Johns
town, Pennsylvania, which swept away
the South Fork Dam, and deluged the
valley OF the Conemaugh, destroying
from eight thousand to ten thousand
lives. On the second of June q water
spout flooded the districts OF Chan
Ping and Ping-Yuen, China, drowning
six thousand people. A cyclone swept
the coast of New Jersey and Long
Island during the second week in Sep
tcmber. when the revolution Of the sun
brought about another period of dis
turbance. A spot of medium size was
then passing over the face of the sun,
which had. when near the edge OF the
sun, very pronounced tacuia'. The i'm
preston of some scientific men is that
while sun-spots are connected with
storms, the faculg are accompanied
with increase of electricity; but only
continued observations can correct or
confirm such impressions. --Demorest's

A Remedy for Insomnia.

The abuse of the eye is the crime of
the age. l am prepared to demonstrate
that at least nine-tenths of the prevail
ing sleeplessness of which we hear so
much is due to nervousness directly
traceable to the optic nerve. We are
wearing our eyes out over books and
desks and types, and the effect shows
itself not only in the appearance of the
organ itself, but in its retroactive effect
on nerve and brain. have discovered
remedy for sleeplessness, and for the
reason have never known it to fail l
am fortified in my opinion that the
whole trouble arises from the over
strain of the eyes Take a soft cloth
say piece of mapped towel-and fold
in it two small pieces of ice at a dis
tanCe apart to exactly cover the eyes
when the cloth is laid across them,
Then lie down. adjust the cloth with
the ice over the closed eyes and you
will be asleep in very sho't while.--

CARRARA MARBLE.
Pieces from the Italian 0uarries Still

Pieces from the Italian Ouarries still
Found in Boston Residences.
There was time within the memory
of middle-aged people when Italian
marble was the only kind thought
worthy of use in our architecture or
sculpture The white marble mantel-
pieces which still survive in old time
Boston houses were from the Carrara
quarries. There is one OF these old
time mantel-pieces in the Tudor apart
ment house, where it recalls the brick
dwelling on the site in which it was
placed by the late Israel Thorndike,
who imported it and number of others
from Europe. The Union Club has
several white marble mantle-pieces in
its house on Park street, which are re-
minders OF its occupancy as a dwelling
by Abbott Lawrence. The above-men-
toned mantel-pieces are ornamented
with tasteful sculpture and are inter-
esting specimens of IA kind of work
which found favor with the grand
fathers and grandmothers Of the pres
ent generation. As white marble looks
rather cold and cheerless in the modern
houses with its warmth OF decoration.
mantel-pieces of this material are sell
dom seen except in some old-fashioned
mansions whose owners like to perpet-
uate associations of the past. Many oc-
cupants OF old houses have removed
these memorials to make way for the
more fashionable wooden articles of
this nature, and others have painted
them to correspond with the general
tone OF interior color. In some stately
mansions at the West End which have
fallen prey to the boarding and lodg-
ing-house keeper, the white marble
mantel-piece. somewhat yellow by time,

Beauty Pads for the Cheeks.

Hollow cheeks and wrinkles are awk-
ward things. Ladies do their best to
prevent their appearance. The clever
ones seem to be able to ward off the
wrinkles, but hollow cheeks completely
battle their skill. A gentleman who
lives at Islington is providing ladies
whose cheeks are hollow with small
pads. These pads are attached to nat
ural or artificial teeth by means of
tiny gold springs. The price of face
pad is a trifle heavy. like every thing
else guaranteed to improve the per-
sonal appearance. A pair of pads cost
something like f5. The maker of the
face pad said that gentlemen as well as
ladies are wearing them. One gentle
man had never looked anything but
cadaverous until he took to the Fad.
Now his cheeks are rounded like a
cherub's and he looks ten years
younger The curious thing about the
face pad is its infexibility. 1t is made
of the same material as the case of
set of artificial teeth. Pail Mall Bud

The description of Prince Nikolaus'
recent return from st. Petersburg

portant officials, rode off toward Mon
tenegro, while his family and attend
ants followed in carriages. At the
border vast crowd of his subjects
awaited him. AS soon as he came in
sight they shouted and cheered and
thanked God that he had lived to come
back to them. just on the boundary
line the princeling dismounted. uncov-

times. and prayed. Every one in the
vast crowd before him did the same.
At the close of his prayer the prince
ling put on his hat. Every one in the
crowd did the same. Then the prince
ling shouted
"God help you, men of Montenegro"
'Welcome is your return, o Prince!'
answered the crowd.
''How goes the world with you, o
brothers?" asked the princeling.
"What is the news in my beloved
Montenegro? How is your health?
How are the cropsp Does the drought
again threaten them?"
While the crowd were answering
these inquiries the carriage OF the
royal family crossed the border. The
shouting and we'll wishing which had
greeted the princeling were repeated.

MEMORIAL DAY.

The Memorial services we're proba
bly, the finest ever held in Tionesta
barrin' the weather which broke iust
an hour too soon. At half past one
o'clock the procession began to move
toward the Cemetery. The order wa;
as follows:

Patriotic Order Sons of America.
Sunday Schools.
Stow Post Martial Band.
Capt. Geo. Stow Post, G. A. r.

The procession was large and fine.
The line of march was North on Elm
street. ALI the business places and
private houses along the line of march,
as we'll as those in other parts of the
town, were handsomely decorated.
On arriving at the Cemetery the
exercises were as follows:
Music by Band.
Prayer by Chaplain.
Song by Choir.
Roll Call of Dead.
Music by Band.
Commanders Address, L. Agnew,

Song by Choir.
Addresses were made, interspersed

The audience sang America"
Benediction by Chaplain.
Everything passed off pleasantly.
The "Posa's" showed up handsomely,
and uncle Chadwick was justly proud
of his "boys." The wind swept away
great deal of eloquence and some
very fine rhetoric from the speeches
made in the open air. The speeches
were all good, and had the merit of
being pithy, to the point, and short.
The Cornet band gets there in style,
appearance and music, and there's no
cobwebs on the musical instruments of
the Post band, either. The whole
affair was voted decided success.
