Mental alteration is what some mis-
guided philanthroplsts call the sudden
change in Murderer Reminders conduct.
Because he is no longer stolid and indiffer-
ent, and is showing signs of weakening as
the critical period arrives, they say be
must be insane. Gov Hill has been appealed
to, and the most strenuous efforts are being
made on all kinds of pretexts to have the
execution again delayed. II there is another
postponement it is reasonably certain that
this brutal criminal will never meet the
fate he deserves. There is limit even to
the torture of the laws delay, and that
limit has about been reached in Reminders

A Chinese v

A Chinese prince, nominally attache to
the legation, fell in love with an American
damsel residing near Dupont circle. He
gave her enormously valuable presents, all
of which she accepted with complacency,
but when he proposed matrimony she
laughed at him. "Why," said she, "do you
suppose that would marry a man with a
pigtail?"
Whereupon the enamored prince delib.
erately went and cut off his pigtail. Per-
haps you do not know what such an act
meant. 1t signifed the abandonment of
his princely perogatives-nay, more, his
Punishment from the empire of China.
And after he had made the sacrifice the
young woman again refused him with
scorn.
EARLY next morning u body was seen
hanging out Of a window at the legation.
1t is supposed that it was that of the
prince, but the mystery was never solved.
The Chinese embassy's ground is Chinese
territory, and an invasion of it by the
police would be a casus belli with China,

An Educated Cabman,

My cabman in Rome, whom l employed
daily while in that city, is a great linguist.
He learned English On top of his cab, and
whenever his cab was standing in the
streets idle he opened his book on the box
and studied until his customers were ready
for a drive. He is president Of the Cab
mems union in Rome and owns several
horses and cabs. Such thrift is unusual
among Italians, but occasionally one meets
the old type'of Marcus Aurelius or Caesar.
Some of the Italians, especially the Floren-
tines, are splendid specimens of physique
and Intelligence, but for wit and sparkle the
Genoese surpass all Europeans. They have
the e~pigrammatic genius of the French,
the humor of the Irish, the genius for trade
of the English and the deviltry of the Ital-
ians. You see when you encounter such a
person you are sure to get the worst end Of
the bargain.-Cor. Lewiston journal.

What the pneumatoscope Will Do.

"Aoo IAo AcuAAAtoscOpe Will do.
A we'll known Chicago physician has in
vented an instrument which is calculated
to make a stir in the medical profession as
o as its virtues and superb qualities are
made known. It is aptly named a pneu-
matoscope, and it does in a wonderful man
ner what its in mentor claims for it. He is
confident that 1t will supplant the stetho-
scope, which until now has had no rival.
1t is made of tin, in the form of the hour
glass, being really two cones connected at
their apexes by q tube as large as one's lit
tie finger, thu. forming a continuous
whole.
At n end or base are two rubber tubes.
designed one for each ear, and Immediately
beneath them is a rubber tympanum de-
signed to magnify sounds. At the other
end is a broad rubber mouthpiece, an inch
or more in diameter. When the patient
breathes into the instrument, the sound
being greatly magnified, the physician is
able to reach a most accurate diagnosis, as
different breath tones are, of course, pro-
duced by different diseases. When this
o~rifice, or mouthpiece. is applied to the
chest, its great virtues are made immc-
diately manifest, as, in reality, the pulsa-
tions of the lungs and hear. may be most
accurately determined, and the conditions
Of these organs reached through the in
tensiied magnifying of the sound.-New
York Telegram.

How to Get Soup from the Turtle.

~
II was surprised to learn the other day."
said Charlie Schweickardt, that very few
persons not engaged in the restaurant bust
ness know how a turtle is killed and pre-
pared for the soup. Please enlighten man
kind by telling them that a turtle is killed
by cutting its head off. You know that at
the least sign of danger the turtle will
draw his head into his shell, and then you
have to resort either to strategy or brutal
ity to make him put out his head again.
This object may be accomplished by hang
ing the turtle up by the tail. This will
aus his head to drop down, and then a
sharp knife will do the rest of the work.
"Some people have an idea that the turtle
as soon as he is killed is thrown right into
the pot and boiled into soup. When the
turtle is dead the breastplate is sawed in
two and an opening to insert the securing
knife is made. Then the expert deftly
curves the knife In such a manner as to re-
move the back plate without taking a par
ticle of meat with it. The entrails are Sc
cured and then the real body of the turtle
Is put in the pot and the vegetables and
other accessories added, with hot water.
Then let it boil and you will soon have
good turtle soup."-St. Louis Republic.

IN ROBES OF MOURNING.

The skirt was narrow rather thar full,
and was gored at the back of the waist. The
embroiderer generally makes the embroid-
cry correspond between the cape and the
skirt, and gives a smaller pattern to the
vest than to the other two garments.
These dresses are extremely expensive, and
cost in China from 40 to 300 taels, which in
our money would be from $50 to about
$500. With some of these court robes q
singular ornament is used in the shape of
shoulder attachments, which gives woman
the appearance of an angel or a theatrical
butterfly. The favorite forms which are
used for these attachments are one or more
peacock tips, flags, artificial flowers and
mounted birds. AS these are light and
easily stirred, and as every eastern woman
carries a fan, they make a very beautiful
picture when the fans put the ornaments
in rapid motion. It is as near to q wind
stirred garden of natural flowers as any
thing that can be imagined.
Another court robe consisted of two
pieces, the n a short shoulder cape and
the other a princess dress cut moderately
low in front, just reaching to the ankles
and running to a train about half a yard in
length. The cape, sleeves and dress were
cut SO as to give the effect Of sharp re-en-
tering angles.
No lady's wardrobe is complete in the
east unless it have an assortment Of what
we call Turkish trousers. These fit quite
snug to the waist and the ankles and
are always loose. Where people are
wealthy they are so baRgy as to be almost
laughable. l have seen several pairs, of
which each leg was two yards in circum-
ference. The poorer classes make these
trousers out Of cotton cloth or prints;
the we'll to do use various qualities of silk
and satin. They are extremely cool and
comfortable in summer, and quite warm
in the colder part Of the year.
When trousers are worn the dress skirts
are usually cut much shorter than usual,
so as to display the lower part of the leg
from the ankle downward. On very gala
occasions the white stockings and ankle
cuffs are replaced by those of finer mate
rails and far greater cost, the former being
made of silk, and the latter being rigid
boards embroidered in brilliant colors, but
In such tints and patterns as to afford a
bright contrast to the robes above it. The
sash is also used in the east, but is not so
popular as with us western b%arbarians. It
Is generally fringed at the ends, and these,
a. far as wealthy people are concerned, are
handsomely embroidered.

ball of the ankle, at which point they were
sewed on to stiff black linen boards, which,
for the lack of a better name, might be
called ankle cuffs.
Fol state occasions she had a shawl
of white silk about six feet square, with
a fringe at least a foot deep. The fringe
was knotted in very much the same
style as Macrame lace. Upon the shawl
proper AZ Il field was a quantity of en-
broidery of almost startling brilliancy.
The center figure represented gaily colored
birds making love, flying about or feeding
their young, each group of birds being sur
n by a wilderness of leaves and
flowers. In the four corners were four
dragons, in what to American eyes seemed
ludicrous attitudes. One seemed to be
smelling some flowers and sneezing over
them, a second was picking blossoms, q
third was eating rosebuds and a fourth
was apparently settling down for a maps
For ordinary occasions she had silk shawls
either plain or slightly embroidered and
of different ~thicknesses. One shawl was
so heavy that it was either padded or else
made of several thicknesses of silk.
These shawls are worn according to the
weather-the light and di~aphanous ones in
the dog days. and the heavy and padded
ones in the colder seasons. Besides the
padded shawl they use an ingenious gar
ment that we might almost call q padded
or fur lined wrapper. The padded ones
suggest the heavy blouses worn by well to
do Cinnamon in December. The fur lined
ones are greatly like the fur lined circulars
which were in fashion n few seasons ago.
The Chinese use a larger variety of furs
and skins than the European races. They
not only employ all the furs familiar to
us, but &c so far as to use the skins of pup
pies, kittens, rats, mice, lambs, kids,
squirrels, monkeys, yak and awrochs. In
fact it may be %truthfully said that there is
hardly any animal, wild or domesticated,
but whose skin is employed for wearing ap-
parel by the thrifty Monaghan people.
Feather trimmed garments such as were
worn by the Aztec mobiles are not uncom-
mon.
Some other dresses that this Chinese
lady owned were what might be called court
robes, if women of that land were aver al
lowed in court society. In nearly all of
these garments the basis material was a
heavy silk of a bright blue, green, gold,
scarlet, purple or orange. On each vas
embroidered a design so large as to cover
almost every spare inch of the surface.
This embroidery contained a large amount
of silver and gold, which varied from about
one-tenth to nine-tenths of all that was
used. Onesuit consisted of three pieces-a
cape, a vest and a skirt. The vest came
down very low in front, and was cut so as
to form projecting angles at the sides. The
cape was cut almost to the knee, and ter
minated in points which touched each
other in front, while the flaps at the neck
we're about a foot apart. The sleeves were
cut like huge wings or sails, with a curv-
ing flare from the shoulder to the end.

Shade Trees and Electric Lights,

People say electric lights are killing
our shade trees" said a close observer.
Their theory is that plants and trees re-
quire the night in which to sleep as much
as human beings do, and that by the con-
tinuous blaze of light they are gradually
weakened and die. Now I don't believe
that at all. I think it is due to the insects
which are attracted by the light. They
hover around every light in clouds, and as
soon as the blaze is extinguished they seek
refuge in the trees and are Of course very
destructive.
Il have particularly noticed a species of
large black beetle which is very numerous
and which eats the bark of trees by hand
fuls. "-Pittsburg Dispatch.
Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1890-10-24

The sleeves were remarkably large and
roomy, and finished with cuffs at least
seven inches long, which when pulled
down covered the entire hand from view.
q The material was a pale blue silk, heavi-
lily brocaded, and faced upon the collar,
flaps and cuffs with a silk of a much dark
or blue. Down both fronts ran a line of
little silver buttons and buttonholes
worked in silver thread and surrounded by
two long lines of silver leaves. Around
the waist was a girdle, which came down
well in front, apparently made of heavy
cloth, but so covered with embroidery as
to conceal the material beneath. Attached
to the girdle were a lot Of keys and trim
kets. Her stockings were apparently cot
ton woven, like our own, up as far as the
