which are simply lost family secrets.
From the Fifth 10 the Sixteenth century
was the age Of fabulous pretensions In
alchemy, when every discovery Was kept
q profound secret, thus making the time
one Of almost total ignorance.
The old slchemists sometimes used
good logic in their arguments as to the
existence Of the philosophers stone, and
all alchemy was not the fraud that mod
ern people would think. There were
some good, honest workers in the ranks.

knaves that are to be found in every
trade and every branch Of life.
There was one monk living in the Mid.

all ne first tried some Of 1t on his hogs

that it must be good for human beings.
So he gave il 10 his brethren with fatal
results This is supposed to be the reason
why the metal is called 'antimony,"
from It's bad effect on monks.
There are alchemists of today just as

The Bible oontains many illusions 10

found In an ancient Chinese work dating

be earth, fire, water, metal and wood.
Moses was evidently al adept in the sci

should call ''quintessence. Aristotle was
faithfully believed By many Students OF
alchemy up to q comparatively late day,
and il is probably due 70 him that philos-

strides forward. They would have been
thousand years earlier had it not been
for his influence.
There were some funny theories held
by those old philosophers as to the
essences and elements Of matter. One
who lived about coo years before Christ
contended that water was the source of
all things, another that air was the
primary element, and each had line Of
argument and analogy to prove his idea.
A man who breathed about 4j0 B. c.
took the ground that fire was the prime

human soul was fiery vapor.
SOME EARLY RRAsONINGs.
One of the early lights was named
Lucippus, who came near the truth
when he said that the earth was made
by the falling together of small PARTICLES.

has been pugilist since his 14th year,
and has never been defeated. Cushing,
although "a years OF age, has not engaged
in 80 many ring contests. The mill was
for $1,000 side and the light weight
championship of the world. A rendez-
vous was selected near the Connecticut
and Rhode Island boundary. Gibbons
weighed 1291a pounds; Cushing, 127.
Cushing assumed hostility at the first,
and some sharp fighting ensued. Sew
eral rounds were fought tamely. Then
Gibbons, evidently confident, took the
offensive. The Brooklyn boy avoided
we'll his blows. and made good use of
his left on Gibbons's head. Gibbons
was the victim of Cushing's rushing tao
tics, and had struck luck up to the
eleventh round. The sharp fighting
really began at the fourteenth round.
In the eighteenth Gibbons started in
with a left-hander on Cushing's
chest, following it up with .
blow over the heart which staggered
his opponent. In the nineteenth Cush-
ing was unable to resist Gibbons on
slaught. Gibbons pounded him on the
face. At last with LaBlanche shift of
position, he felled him to the floor. Just
as the time limit expired he partially
revived.
The party was made up of New York,
New Jersey and Boston sporting men.

Narrow Escape of Guests from a Burn
ing Hotel.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. IA destruct-
i've FIRE devastated Owensboro last night,
attended with loss of life. Alto O'Clock
the fire had destroyed property to the
amount of quarter OF a million, and
was still burning. The fire originated in
the basement of the Budd house, which
was filled with sleeping guests. The
house was rapidly Quilted. The guests
were awakened and ran out into the
street in their night clothing, while
many crazed by fear, jumped from win
dows. Among these were two ladies
and child, both of whom were badly
injured. William H. Holm jumped from
third-story window, fell on his head
and was fatally injured. Five guests are
missing. 1t is believed they were
burned to death while sleeping. A high
wind was blowing at the time, and after
the hotel had been swept away, the flames
