Romantic Marriage.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 14---Charles Kers-
teter and Miss Marion Fuller arrived in
town from Chicago Monday, and regis
tered at the Burnett House, where they
engaged the first suit of rooms. They
registered from Chicago. The gentleman
called in number of prominent people
and in the afternoon, accompanied by sew
eral friends, they went to Covington, KY,
and were quietly married. They re-
turned to this city and left at once for
Chicago. It appeared to be case of
elopement Of we'll connected people, and
investigation resulted in the theory that
the bride is Chief Justice Fuller's daugh-
ter. The groom is in business on La
Sale street in Chicago. 1t is only few
months ago that Mr.. Fuller's youngest
daughter eloped to Milwaukee and mar
ried. The bride is "A TALL very pretty
blonde, and gave her age as 23years. The
gentleman is fine looking man of me-
dunn height with small dark nous
tache and dark hair. He gave his age as
20 years.

Encrustation of Steam Boilers.

The incrustation of steam boilers has
asways been a matter of pressing i'm
Fortance to engineers, and many rem
edies have been proposed to obviate
what is not only an inconvenience but
often a source of danger. The incrus-
tation is due to the mineral matter,
chiefly lime. which is contained in all
hard waters, and which is deposited
On boiling, as We can see by looking
into any kettle that has been use for
even short time. A simple remedy
has been tried by an Italian engineer,
Col Potto, and it is said with complete
success, in a boiler of twenty horse
power, containing one hundred and
twenty-six tubs. He introduced into
the boiler every week two kilos (about
fouF and a quarter pounds) of sugar.
with the result, that after four
months continuous working, only a
very thin film of incrustation was
formed, and this was easily removed
by simple washing. Without the
treatment with sugar. the same boiler
lad previously become incrusted in a
period of six weeks. The method has
the merit of simplicity and cheapness.

test It's etficacy.-Chambers' journal

Poison Made from Dead Ants.

Not the least interesting episode in
Mr.. Stanley's wonderful story of his
last journey in the Ozark Continent
is his account of the poisoned arrows
used with such deadly effect by the
natives against his followers. The
exact nature of the poison used re-
manned an enigma until he discovered
in one of the villages several packets
of dried red ants. and learnt that the
poison was procured from them. The
insects are dried, ground to powder
and cooked in palm-oil, and the MKT
ure is applied to the points of the ar
rows. The noxious compound owes
its power to formic acid, which exists
in the bodies of ants, in certain cater
pillars, and even in stinging-nettles.
When pure, this acid has most cor
rosive action On the skin. producing
olisters which are difficult to heal.
It's action was no doubt especially
deadly to those whose frames were
already much weakened by hunger and
over-exertion. Cham bers' Journal.

Gameness Indicated by CoIcr.

Many people might. smile If said
that a horses color was an index to
his gameness, but such is the case. as
[ have found from experience, says a.
veterinary surgeon. | have closely
noted this fact and have had an oppor-
tunity to judge, having performed
thousands of operations on horses,
some of them sufficiently painful to
test the gameness of the subject l
have found that the most arrant cow
ards among horses are sorrels and the
gamest brutes bays or browns. Some
time ago | performed an operation on
pair of chestnut sorrels and they
groaned like human beings. A bay or
brown will usually suffer without a
noise of any kind. just rolling its big
eyes in an appealing way which is
almost human in its intensity. Gray
and white horses, as a rule, are not
particularly game. Tribune.
