The Effects of Fenr.

Il is,a common practice in many parts OF
India to oblige persons suspected of crime
TO chew dry rice in presence of the officers
of the law. Curious as it may appear
such is the intense influence of fear on the
salivary glands, that, if they are actually
guilty. there is no secretion of saliva in
the mouth, and chewing is impossible
Such culprits generally confess without
any further efforts, On the contrary, a
consciousness of innocence allows of 4
proper flow of fluid for softening the rice.
Many of our readers are familiar with
the case of the thief to whom, in common
with other persons, a stick of certain
length was given, with the assurance that
the stick of the thief would grow by super
natural power. The culprit, imagining
that his stick had actually increased in

A similar anecdote is told Of farmer,
who detected depredations on his corn-bln
by calling his men together, and making
them mix up quantity of feathers in
sieve, assuring them at the same time that
the feathers weuld inevitably stick to the
hair of the thief. After short time, one
of the men raised his hand repeatedly to
his head and thus betrayed himself.
A Partisan physician, during his visits,
made in hired fly, had received bottle
Of real ,Jemaica rum, as sample, but
found, after returning home, that he had
left it in the carriage. Re went to the ofhce
and informed the manager he had left
virulent poison in one of the carriages and
desired him to prevent any of the coach
men frem drinking it. Hardly had be got
back, when he was summoned IN great
haste to three of these worthless, who were
suffering from theanost horrible collie; and
great was his difficulty in persuading them
that they had only stolen some rum.

SOME ROYAL BEDS.
The Duchess of Edinburgh and the EX-
Empress Eugenia.

The Duchess of Edinburgh and the EX-
Empress Eugenia.
Clarence House, the residence of the
Duchess of Edinburgh, is one Of the most
comfortable houses in London, and is ia
nous for its good BEDS for the only daugh-
ter of Alexander II. of Russia is, like
many Muscovite ladies, very particular
about her beds, and will tolerate in her
house none but the very best. Even when
a mere child, and long before her mar
riage, she was 50 particular about this very
important item in domestic comfort that,
to insure the sheets being tightly stretched
over the mattresses, she used to have them
sewn down, for even the slightest crease or
wrinkle would entirely destroy the repose
of this imperial spoiled child for the night.
Her Royal Highpess used to be greatly
chafed about this weakness by members
of the royal family when first she came to
this country, but the Queen, who is also
very particular about her beds, stuck up
for her, and, although now the sheets are
no longer sewn down to the mattresses,
they are composed of the most exqusitely
fine linen that can be procured, and
stretched ike a tight rope over the most
perfect mattresses that can be manufactured
In Paris, IN which capital the making OF
mattresses has been brought up to the
level of fine art A curious and anus
ing chapter might, indeed, be written
about the beds Of illustrious personages.
The ex-Empress Eugenia is quite as par
ticular about her beds as the Duchess of
Edinburgh or our gracious sovereign, and
quite agrees with the first-named lady as
to the fneness of the linen and the tight
ness of the drawing of the sheets, but her
Imperial Majesty has an odd fancy to have
her bed so low as to give visitor to the
imperial bed chamber the impression that
the widow Of Caesar Is almost sleeping on
the floor 1t is indeed hardly elevated
more than a foot from the floor, as all who
have visited in old days the private apart

Sensible smokers, just before laying
aside half-smoked cigar, blow the smoke
through the lighted end, This clears the
cigar from the smoke, and it will be found
upon relighting that the cigar is of good
flavor. 1t is said that really good cigar
will be improved by thus expeIling the
smoke, and then lighting it again.

The Brooklyn physicians have recently
been treated to one of the most remarkable
incidents that has ever come under their
observation. Mrs. c. NJ. Alexander,
woman now in her ninetieth year, while
sewing at her home at Scituate, May oath,
broke off the pointed end of needle into
her thumb and vas unable to extract it.
She afterward went to visit her daughter,
Mrs Horace Barnes of Brookfeld, and on
the morning of May 3lst, the needle APP
peared pricking its way through the skin
of the fourth toe of the left foot. Her
friends say it is the same needle, and Mrs.
Alexander knows of no other. The physi-
clans have known of such cases before, but
never knew of one where the journey was
made in seven days.-Spriaqfeld RepubLiean.

MONTANA TO THE FRONT.

"spokane,'' the Montana Wonder, Again
Defeats proctor Knott"
LOUISVILLE, May l4.-Ten thousand
people witnessed the race to-day between
Spokane and Proctor Knott. The betting
was rather light. The track was heavy
and slow. The third race was the event
Of the day. 1t was for the Clark stakes,
distance one mile and quarter. The
starters were, Spokane, Once Again, Proc
tor Knott and Come -to-Taw. The horses
were difficult to start but finally got off
with Come-to-Taw in the lead. followed by
Proctor Knott, Spokane and Once Again
in the order named. When they passed
the stand Spokane was first. Proctor Knott
econd, Once Again third and Come-to-
Taw fourth. At the quarter Proctor Knott
took the lead by three lengths with Spo-
kane second and Come-to-Taw last. At
the half the relative positions were the
same except Come-to-Iaw pulled up to
Proctor Knott still held the lead by a
third and Come e-to-Taw last. At the head
of the stretch Proctor Knott was still first
with Spokane crowding him closely.
Half way down Spokane took the lead
and came under the wire two lengths

Again third, COme-tO-Taw fourth, time
2:1219. Proctor Knott, the fav0rite, ended
a very tired horse, but Spokane did not

Settlers on the Sioux.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-Secretary Noble
was shown dispatch from Pierre, Dak.,
dated to-day, in which it was said that
many settlers had entered the Sioux reser-
walton and staked out claims in anticipa-
tion of a favorable result of the pending
negotiations with the Indians for the ces-
sion of a large part Of their territory and
that permission to enter the reservation
and select claims had been granted bv
the officials of the interior department at
Washington, provided it was done peace
ably. When asked if permission had been
granted as stated, the secretary said no
such authority had been given,
and if settlers had entered the
reservation they would be elected i'm
mediately. Public survey of one of the
boundary lines of the reservation, he said,
had been suspended temporarily, pending
negotiation, for fear of creating alarm or
distrust among the Indians. He expressed
9 hope that the report of settlers entering
Indian lands would prove to be unfounded.
as it might seriously embarrass the COM
missiOners in their negotiations, but if
found to be true, the action of the depart
ment would be prompt and effective.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 11.-1nterest in
the Clark stake to be run Tuesday is al

certainly start. while Bryant is eager to
avenge the defeat of Proctor Knott in the
Derby. OncelAgain: Hindoocraft, Sports
man, Outbound, Cassius and the California
crack, Robin Head, and Come-to-Taw are
certain starters. Admirers of Once Again
are confident that at mile and quarter he
is equal to any horse in the country, while
Robin Head has been reserved for this
stake and trained especially for this event.
Proctor Knott and Spokane are of course
lions of the occasion and an enormous
crowd will witness the final contest be-
tween the great three. year-olds.

The German Coal Strike,

BERLIN, May 15.-Distress is beginning
to be felt in the coal districts in conse-
quence Of the strike of miners. The COM
mittee appealed for funds and number OF
Westphalia newspapers opened subscrip-
tion lists. The number of strikers and
theil dependents is estimated at 10000.
Hundreds of the miners resumed work un-
der protection of troops and many other
strikers are wavering. Employers in the
Witten district have offered to increase
wages without altering the hours Of labor
and the offer may possibly be accepted.

BERLIN, May 11.-In connection with
the great strike in the coal mining region,
the government advised employers to con-

strikers that any riotous demonstration
will be vigorously suppressed. The gov

The strike is assuming great dimen-

the Rheinish and Westphalia districts.
The emperor returned to this city hurridly
