Always Stolen to Spend.

In commenting on the recent forgery
case and the Sl93. 900 which was made
out of bogus mortgages, a promlns'
member of the Produce Exchang"
pointed out the very curious fact tha,
when the denouement occurs. as II
does occur in all such affairs, it Is
always possible to trace the expendi-
ture Of the money by the man com
mitting the crime. He has either spent
IL in extravagent living or in gambling
or in assoc c'ation with women. IL

that is now recalled has it ever beeI

mean and small things, but they ar

The excitement and commotion In
the courtroom, the court inquiry or
the Judge addressed 10 Mr. Enery as to
the meaning of this extraordinary pro-
ceeding, the rush of Harold to his
friend, and his cry OF 1T succeeded,
PAUL. it succeeded. and you're as good
as savedl' the bewilderment Of every
one in the room, save Harold, Mr..
Ellery and DR.. EIlendorf, may be
passed over. That the old man who,
limp and unconscious, was carried out
by the court attendants into the judges
private room was the murderer OF
Austin Warren, every one within hear
ing of this pitiful cry seemed to know
by instinct, but how he was led TO give
forth that cry was a mystery to all save
the three mentioned.
The evidence of Harold. who was
called to the stand when the excite
ment abated, as the first witness Tor
the defence, explained it. The machine
which stood on the work table, and
with which old Warren had been ex-
perimenting just before he was struck
down, was a form of phonograph on
which he had long been at work, so
constructed that 1t recorded the FAINT
est sound made within a radius OF
several feet. The instrument had lam
unhenSed until the afternoon which

mechanically he had adjusted 1t, had
set 1t in motion, and then applied his
ear to the reproducing diaphragm, tc

words of Austin Warren, mingled witt
those of the man who had murdered
him. Clearly and distinctly he bac

petty peculation, the singing accuse

fury as he called attention to the faci

tence of discharge and threat of pro
J ceedings, and then the sound OF

DR.. PINEL, OF PARIS, Is said 10
have succeeded in hypnotizing several
subjects by means of the phonograph-
All the commands given through this
channel were, he declares, as readily
obeyed as those which he uttered d.
rectly, and suggestions" OF every pos
sible sort were as effectually commu-
nlcated through the medium Of the
machine rs II made Uird roce. Inc
conclusion which Mr.. Pinel deduces
from his experiments Is that the re-
celved theory of a magnetic current
passing from the operator to the suo-
ject is entirely baseless, and that the
real cause OF the phenomena OF hyp-
notlsm is nervous arrangement on the
port Of those in whom they are capa
ble OF being superinduced.

According to the Chicago TriJlme's
figures the lowest cost of getting cattle
ready for market is p cents per pound.
IAN average bullock Weighing 1000
pounds costs the producer $50. He is
sold for $50, which gives the raiser 20

Away and away and away.

With the golden voice of the sun
And silver voice of a star.

There something higher than these

PEOPLE often talk of the advantages
Of natural gas as fuel without having
an adequate idea OF its Importance. IL
Is to-day the greatest commercial won
der OF the age. No one can ponder
over the following figures without being
deeply Impressed: 1t is over 10 years
ago, says the editor or stores anu
HUrd,cdrs, published at St Louis, thal
natural gas was first used as iueI'
yet to-day there is required to pipe II
1850 miles of mains. In Pittsours
alone 500 miles supply 42,69S private
houses, 40 iron mills, 81 glass works.
SO foupdries and machine shops, anu
422 miscellaneous industrial establish
ments. An idea of its value as tuei
can best be obtained when the value
OfT,OOO,OOO tons of coal Is estimated,
as It Is asserted that this amount Vi
coal is annually displaced by naturaI
gas. An idea of the effect retarueu
production has in advancing prices can
be seen in the shutdown movement III
oil production. This commenced ID
earnest Just about a year ago, and tns
following Is the result: In 1856, whei
no attempt was made to lessen produc
ton, the average run from wells wa
70,666 barrels per day. In 1887, whel
there was less than two months organ
lied effort in this direction, the averag
daily run was 63, 545 barrels. In i
months of 1857, ending November
when the movement was on foot 1
earnest, It was less than 44,0OO barrel
per day. The average prices OF certif
Gates for the first 10 months OF 1Ss
was "a. cents. for the first 10 montf
of 1888 1t was 81 cents, an increase
value Of "a! per cent.

Three Kinds OF Rope Walking.

need not say that there are several
kinds of rope walking, for one has only
to visit an American circus to see more
than one variety practiced in the same
ring. We in the profession recog-
nize three legitimate forms, OF which
one however, is almost abSolete nova
laws. Taking them in the order OF
their difficulty, and therefor, presume !
their attractiveness, there Is first the
high rope. which is fixed as near the
clouds as the performer dare venture or
the law Will allow; secondly the low
rome on which the more youthiul
performers disport themselves, anu
which Ia stretched only some seven OF
eight feet from the ground; and lastly,
the old fashioned ascension" rope,
which have referred TO as being out
of date entirely. This last IS In al
nrobabiIity the Oldest form or tight
rome walking, and believe dates back
to classic times. It receives us naut
| from the fact that the performer walk'
nm a rope which Is stretched from Tue
| yround to some convenient elevator
FORTY or fifty feet away. When wa
younp il was still popular, and ever
TODAY we often speak OF separau
Inerforurance on a high rope as "al
ascension. need not say that th'
.dificulty of this form OF rope walklnl

An important experiment has been
tried successfully at Ottawa, Ontario.
\ mill has been established which
makes paper pulp out of sawdust.
1t is now using the product of one
mill. The paper made wholly from
sawdust is said to form an admirable
sheathing that is fit for building after
being tarred and dried. A better
quality of paper is made by using
one-fourth waste paper. The plant
cost $4,000, and consists of Amer
lean machinery, with the exception OF
the grinders. The mill has capaci-
ty for converting about $4,000 tons
of sawdust into pulp annually.

Application has been made 70

Application has been made for a
patent for an electric apparatus by
which an instantaneous photograph
may be taken of a burglar while en-
gagged in his nefarious operations. 1t
is claimed for this invention that the
moment the marauder touches the
door of the safe or any other place to
which the tell-tale wire may be fas-
tened, a correct photograph is taken.
A number of cameras plased about
the room brings about the possibility
of reproducing his features in all the
degrees of success or failure naturally
incident upon such excursions.

When the inundation approaches
the capita usually at the end of
June or the beginning of July the
Nile crlers begin their work. These
.criers are men whose business it is to
call out, or rather to recite, before
the houses of those who wish it, how
much the Nile has risen during the
last twenty four hours. The Orien-
tai does everything, no matter what
it is, gravely, slowly, with much dig
nifty and verbosity, and is never chary
of his time or breath. Even tho form
of his greeting in the street is a COM
piicated ceremony of words and no.
notions, which usually takes some
minutes to perform. And in the
same way this announcement of the
rivers rise, which seems to US such
simple matter, is most serious af-
fair. The day before the crier begins
his talk, he goes through the streets
accompanied by boy, whose part it
is to act as chorus, and to sing the
responses at the proper moment. The
orier sings:
"God has looked graciously upon the
fields"
RESPONSE: "Ohl day of glad tidings. -
Tomorrow begins the announcement
REsroNsE: May 1t be followed by
success"
Before the crier proceeds to give
the information so much desired, he
intones with the boy lengthy alter
mating chant, in which he praises
God, imploring blessings on the
Prophet and all believers, and on the
master of the house and all his chill.
dren. Not until all this has been
carefully gone through does he pro-
coed to say the Nile has risen so many
inches. This ceremony is carried on
until the month of September, when
the river has reached its eliminating
point, aud the crier, as brnger of
such good news, never fails to claim
his "baksheesh" or drink money
sometimes humbly, and sometimes,
too, very imperiously and demand

THE FIRE IN SEATTLE.
The BUSINESS Portion OF the Town
Destroyed.

SAN Francisco, June 6.-From the
brief dispatches received from Seattle
before the wires went down it is
learned that the wind was blowing
strongly when the fire started and
when the fire department arrived
Porter's building was a roaring mass
of flames. The fremcn worked with
will, but were unable to cope with
the flames which rose high in the air.
Large volumes of sparks were carried
by the high winds and spread broad
cast over that part of the city lying
south, which contains many inAam-
mable buildings Within an hour
the Opera House and Coleman's block
were in flames. The latter was filed
with infiammable material and the
heat was so intense the 6remen were
hardly able to approach. The fire.
men become discouraged as the flames
spread beyond their control. People
IN the south part of the city are NOV
ing out and the streets are crowded
with vehicles OF every description.
1t is thought the loss at present will
be $5,00o,o00.
TEiIRTY-oSE BLOCKS BURNED.

at 100000. 1t is covered by a
total insurance Of s2,250,0O0; of this
amount 81 100000 is held by compa-
MES represented in San Francisco.
Six Oregon companies carry risks
