CHICAGO, May e7.-The police have
been put in possession Of startling facts
concerning DR.. Cronin's murder. It has
been clearly shown by the dead mans
friends that his removal was ordered by

society. Charges of traitorous conduct
were preferred against him at meeting
az the Clan-na-Gael camp. He was
found guilty and his death was ordered.
lie Caron betrayed Him.
The charge was based on the state
ment Of the British spy, lie Caron, that
there were four more spies in America.
When lie Caron made that statement on
the stand before the Parnell commission
he was ordered to give the names of the
enies. He said he dared not TO do it, be-
cause II they were known they would
be murdered. Presiding Justice Han
nen then took him into a closed ante
room and in the presence Of Sin Richard
Webster. the attorney general, who is
conducting the prosecution. and Sir
Charles Russell, Parnell's attorney, Le
Caron gave the names.
clan-na-Gael Decreed His Death.
Within forty-eight hours after this
news was cabled from London every Clam
na-CaeI camp IN America had met and
passed resolutions declaring IN favor Of

Mountain Laboratories.

We are accustomed to look upon
the masses of our mountains as the
very type of what is stationary and
eternal; but in reality they are vast
chemical laboratories full of activity
and constant change. With every
alteration of eternal conditions OF
environment, what was state OF
stable equilibrium for atoms OF
molecules ceases to be so. Old
unions are ever being broken down
and new ones formed. Life in our
planet, like life in ourselves, rests
fundamentally on chemical action.
The vital fluid circulates INCREASINGLY
through the arteries of the oceans
and the currents of the air; it pene-
trates the rocks through the finest
fissures and invisible cracks, as
the human blood penetrates the tis-
sues between artery and vein, pro-
ducing with the help of heat and
pressure, like changes III the his
tology of the globe. The recurrence
after long interval, of the same set
of conditions in the same rock-mass
may bring about the unending cycle
analogous to succeeding genera
tions-which Hutton, the earliest of
the Scotch geologists, recognized
a hundred years ago.-Popular Sci
ence Monthly.

How Musk in Obtained.

Most people take it for granted
that because musk is sold in what Is
called pod, therefore it is vegeta-
BILE product. But the truth is that it
is entirely an animal product, being
a substance found in u two or three
inch sac in the body of the little
musk-deer OF Asia. The sac, when
tied up and dried, goes by the name
of pod among the hunters who
bring II into market. Probably there
are few things subject to such adult
Grafton, as one part of pure musk
will scent thousands of parts of some
other powder mingled with it; and
as the pods sell for nom fifteen To
twenty dollars apiece the adultera-
ton has It's profit. 1t is indeed SO
punscnt that when just fresh it has
been known TO produce violent
bleeding at the nose, and many peo-
pie are SO susceptible to It as to have
sad headaches brought about by con
tact with the pure article; and while
II suspicion of II is very agreeable to
many persons, one atom too much
becomes offensive. as the case is with /.
patchouli aud many other ordorous

Maori Traditions,

The islands composing New Zea-
land are 800 miles from the nearest
continent, and the largest boat the
natives have is not bigger than an
Indian canoe. 90 Then they resemble
neither the South American Indian
nor the natives of the Australasian
continent. There own theory is that
the Great Spirit was fishing one
time, and threw his line down from
the sky to hook q whale. The hook
stuck in the ground, and he pulled
and pulled until he drew a noun
tain up to the skies, which is now
called Rangariri. He flew along the
clouds in rage, and tried his luck
900 miles away with no better sue
cess, for this time he brought VI
Mount Egmount, peak 10000 feet

but once converted he is ii pious and
intelligent Christian. They all ride

TOOK THE WRONG MEDICINE,

Robert Stewart, of Petaluma, recently had
queer experience. He writes
"Carbuncles and boils afflicted my face and
neck for weeks. Finally procured a bottle
OF one of the leading Sarsaparillas To my
surprise it made matters worse. This made
me lose faith in Sarsaparillas but seeing a
statement that joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla
dried up boils and face eruptions instead of
forcing more out, as thepotash sarsaparillas
do, Iboughta bottle. Theedect was astonish-
Ing The carbuncles and boils began to dry
up and in two weeks my face was us well and
smooth as ever. My brother also took bottle
with the same benefit. ROBERT STEWART,
s9Ef Petaluma, CAL"
Explanatory Note.-The mineral, Iodidc of
Potash, which is the basis of nearly all other
sarsaparillas, attacks the blood direct, hence
forces impurities through the skin, creating
more Doils and pimples. Joys Vegetable
Sarsaparilla acts .oppositely. Its vegetable
Alternatives stimulate the various secretive
organs. and thus eliminate all Impurities
through the natural channels, hence dries up
