Mimi, to buy poultry and ship it to Mime
apolis He was down there for a few days
and shipped small consignment, after
which nothing further was heard Of him.
He had suddenly disappeared. His wife,
having become alarmed, went down to lie

find Of her husband was his overcoat. The
river was searched, but no Knowlton turned
up. A cou'- try school teacher, however, had

Fattening Weather This Year.
From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.

"Did you notice that everybody is fat
this year?" said DR.. Starklotf. "If you
haven't, look closely at the next friend you
meet whom you have not seen for long
time. lsit accidental that your cheeks and
those of your girl are more plump, more
rosy than they were in 1888? If it is, the
action of the Mississippi in running past st.
Louis instead of along the back of the
Rocky mountains is accident also. The fact
is, this has been a vegetable year. The
flora IS luxuriant and the funna follows so
as matter of course. And man, who de-
rives his sustenance from both, must be in
the procession. This year the atmosphere
came nearer maintaining an equilibrium
than it did last year. The hydrogen,
nitrogen, and oxygen are in almost perfect
proportion. Some years you see the people
sallow-the oxygen is low. 1t would be an
excellent idea, were it practicable, for the
census takers to weigh the inhabitants of
the United States and tell us the respective
ratios of avoirdupois to members of the
three clases--infants. youths, aud adults. :"

a YOUNG INVENTIVE GENIUS.
4 Brooklyn Boy Who May Make a
Revolution in Ocean Navigation.

II.
From the Bew York Press
Clifton Vose, who lives at the corner of
Utica avenue and Eastern parkway, Brook
Ign, is rising young inventive genius who
will doubtless one day see his name en-
blazoned on the roll Of fame Though onIy
~ years old, be Is the author of many i'm
portant mechanical inventions and dlscov-
cries. Last May he took out a patent for a
new idea of propellers for steamships. In
stead Of only two propellers at the stern of
the boat, Mr.. Voses invention contemplates
the use OF SIX, much smaller in size than the
ordinary, and placed underneath the vessel.
He claims for has invention a large in
crease Of propelling power, the propellers
being increased in number and placed under
the vessel where the water is more solid
and compact They will always be in deep
water, enabling the vessel TO hold her course
and speed in rough weather. This is
claimed TO be Of great advantage, for stern
screws are often completely out of water in
storm. Mr.. Vose says his propellers will
make vessel moro buoyant and prevent
her from rolling, which always interferes
with speed He is sure of attaining a speed
OF twenty-eight or thirty miles an hour
with his propellers, no more power being
required than by the system now in use
The invention has been tried with com
plete success On twelve-foot boat, and now
it is being put on large vessel. Among
Mr.. Vose's other inventions is beautiful
design for worlds fair tower, which com
bines great strength with symmetry of pro
portion. He has also constructed a sub
marine boat which is a unique novelty in
Its way. An ingenious contrivance for
keeping SCOT and dust from entering at car
windows, and wagon spring are two of
Mr.. Vose's other inventions. He has been
Tor some time busily engaged in perfecting
his discovery Of an entirely new motive
force, about which he maintains the utmost
secrecy. Beyond saying that it is some
uhlhg different from steam, compressed air
or electricity. he refuses to divulge its
nature. Clifton has never had the adyant-
ages Of technical education, but evolves
every one Of his inventions out of his inner
consciousness.

FORCRPS IN HER SIDE.
Left in the Incision Made by Surgeons
While Removing a Tumor.



PITTsBURG, PA, Nov. 24.-Two locally
prominent surgeons some time ago removed
large tumor from the side of married
woman living on Forty second street
in this city. Since the operation
the woman has suffered most ex-
cruciating pains in the side from which
the tumor was extracted. She called in
another surgeon yesterday, and, upon ex-
animation, he declared that some hard, me-
tallic substance had been left in the wound,
which it would be necessary to reopen. A
second operation was performed to-day aud
the hard substance. when taken out, proved
to be a small pair of physicians forceps
which were used in holding the veins cut in
the first operation.
The surgeons who made the first opera
ton say they missed the pair of forceps at
the time, but refuse to believe that the in
strument was left in the cavity from which
the tumor was taken.
