KEENWRIGHT DIED.
Inquest Held on the Remain'
Last Evening.

William B. KeeuwriGht. a complete
account of whose laudanum poisoning
was given yesterday. died at 3;45 yester-
day afternoon. more than twenty six
hours after swallowing an ounce of the
narcotic.
An inquest was held under the direc-
ton of Coroner Chafin at the city hall
last evening. Winnie Hainesworth, DR..
w. N. Hunt and W. Nj. Mast, jr., were
the witnesses. According to Mast, who
is employed at the Hunt drug store,
Keenwright asked for laudanum late
Tuesday forenoon. In reply to questions
the customer said he wanted the drug as
a liniment, and knew how to use it.
Before falling into the final stupor
Keenwright said to DR.. Hunt that he
took poison because he wanted to sleep
forever. This was the verdict:
I'VE, the jury in the foregoing case
find that the deceased. VIM. b. Keen
wright, came to his death from the effects
of laudanum administered by his own
hand with suicidal intent, and we
believe that he took the poison while tenn
porarily insane"

The Tariff on Silk.

The Dry Goods Chronicle has inter
viewed a number of silk merchants and
manufacturers on the subject Of the pro-
posed duty on raw silk, intended to ell
able the American silk worm to compete
with the pauper silk worms of Italy and
China. Mr.. Stocker, of the firm of
Stocker & Cavalier, says that the whole
production of raw silk in this country
does not exceed SOC pounds. Cne hun
dred and fifty pounds Is produced by the
state board for silk culture in California.
ITO kill our present fiourishing silk in
1ustry for the sake of being able to raise
a quantity of raw material ten years
hence, says Mr.. Stocker, ''is a policy
that will never succeed in this country"
This means, we suppose, that the bill
will not pass, because it has been found
in other parallel cases that killing one
industry by means of duty on raw ma
teriais in order to promote another in
dustry has succeeded very well. Efforts
to accomplish similar results are making
now in Washington city, and the ques-
ton whether they will succeed OF not de-
ponds on the number of votes obtainable,
and this depends largely on the lobby
influences at work. We are inclined to
agree with Mr.. Stocker that the silk
worm is not strong enough in the lobby
as yet to secure the recognition which his
hutahle labors merit. New York Even

A XYonderful Petrifaction.

Joseph Sweshengef, who resides near Stan
ford, writes to The River Press particulars
of wonderful discovery he recently made in
an unfrequented mountain near his residence
The discovery consists of petrified man, with
all his limbs in perfect state of preservation
The body stands by massive bowlder, OF
which it seems to have become part, and
cannot be removed without considerable labor
and expense. A tiny stream of water, flow
ing from spring above, falls directly upon
the head of the body, and, after passing over
it, loses itself in the surrounding rock.
The body measures feet and inches
from the crown of the head to the soles of the
feet, and is well proportional, the chest and
limbs being of ponderous width and size.
The features are of severe Roman type,
surmounted by broad, high forehead and
luxurious growth of hair, which is as firm as
rock itself, a beard reaching to the waist
completes picture which inspines q feeling
of awe aud reverence in the beholder. Ger
tain hieroglyphics are cut upon the rock, a
true copy of which Mr.. Sweshenger promises
to send us. Thus far he has kept the discov-
cry secret, but will in due time divulge its
locality. 1t will doubtless ATTRACT tho sa-
wants of the day, and large sum Of money
may be realized from it. 1t is, indeed a
wonderful discovery. indicating as it does
that the first inhabitants of this country
were giants Tacoma News

Millers Want Free Jute.

Though the farmer won't see it, his
next friend, the miller, is beginning to
tumble. The National Millers' associa-
ton have petitioned the committee on
ways and means that iute and jute cloth
or burlap be put on the free list The
association alleges that, owing to the
present tariff on these raw materials for
flour bags, ''the cost of the bags used in
exporting -four was increased from % TO
80 per cent, and was q heavy BURDEN on
all exporters of -four" Of course the
farmers have no interest in this. They
do not export flour like the millers But
what about grain bags, on which a SINH
lar tax is levied?

Treatment for Stammering.

1t is said that stammerers rarely, it ever,
show any impeachment to speech when speak
ing in whispers On this fact new method
of treatment has been advocated by DR.. Coen,
which is as follows: In the first ten days
speaking is prohibited. This will allow rest
to the voice, and constitutes the preliminary
state of treatment. During the next ten days
speaking is permissible in the whispering
voice, and in the course Of the next fifteen
days the ordinary conv srsational tone may
be gradually employed Medical journal.

A LITTLE GIRL.

My lady trips the stairs adown
To greet the rays Of morning,
Which glisten round her head a crown,
Her natal day adjoining.
What ages my lady? Just thirteen,
You'd think she was far older,
Her witching eyes have grown more keen,
Her teens, too, make her colder.
Alas how childhood with a whirl
From yesterday is f1eeting,
called her then ga little girl.''
To-day she scorns this greeting.
Tilt on my lady through the years
Which give to youth their plenty
Of love and grief, of hopes and fears,
Till age proclaims you twenty.
Then as each year time steals a curl
And dimple from you (doubting),
Methinks I'd call you ''little girl''
Without disdainful pouting.

Fortune Played Them n Trick.

Fortune is II slippery jade A New
York Mail and Erpress writer heard the
other day Of shabby trick she played
several gentlemen, among whom were no
less noted pcrsonages than two cx-Gov-
crnors of Massachusetts, Butler and Rice.
A chemist named Fell, residing in New
York, had made 4 most remarkable dis
covery, which was apparently destined to
revolutionizc the leather industry. In
experimenting with tungstate of soda, he
had applied it to blotting paper, and tho
result was a substance like leather pos
scssing the same harl, yet elastic consis-
tcncy and practically indestructiblc
A company was. organized, and for
tunes seemed to be within easy reach of
all concerned. Presently the experiments
ceased. The chemists supply of tung-
state had NIL run out. A now consign-
ment from Dir. Quetticr, the dealer, did
not produce the same effect. Repeated
trials failed to revive the success of the
first. The tungstatc was analysed and
found to be pure. Then small portion
of the old supply was scraped from the
box in which it had been kept, and that
was sent exclusively to Profs. Doremus,
Feuchtwanger and Ennis to be analysed.
They found in it foreign substances and
q residuum of alum.
The first specimen had been imported
from Germany; the second was domestic
Then $40, 900 was offered to the dealer if
he could secure fresh supply of the
same quality as the first. This he under
took to do, but somehow failed. A Mr..
Murphy was sent abroad to visit tho
German firm of manufacturers from whom
tho impure tungstatc had been received.
While he was on the Atlantic tho fac
tories of the German house were burned
to the ground. They were never rebuilt.
And 80, for the want of accurate
knowledge of the nature of single
ingredient, and that, too, an impurity,
a big discovery and a magnificent for
tune in prospective have gono glimmer-
ing. Europe has been searched in vain
for trace of the chemical mixture, and
all that is left of the golden dream for
the stockholders to gaze upon are few
pieces of paper-leather.

Musical Jugs.

The silvadors or musical jugs found
among the burial places of Peru, are most
ingenious specimens of handiwork. The
William s. Vaux collection in Phladel-
phia contains remarkable example of
this rude and ancient art. 1t is CON-
posed of two vessels joined together with
clay stem Or pipe, after the fashion of
the Siamcsc twins. The stem is hollow /;
one jug is entirely closed up, except a
small opening provided with clay tube,
leading to the body of the whistle. When
a liquid is.poured into the open-m -mouthed
jug, the air is compressed into tho other
through the opening in the connecting
stem, from whence it is forced into the
whistle, the vibrations producing the
lovely songs of various forest birds pecu-
liar to Peru and South American countries.
The Clay collection, in the same city, also
contains some wonderful examples of an
cient Peruvian art, among which are the
robin vases and the llama jugs, tho for
mer initiating the song of the robin, and
tho latter. being fashioned in the form of
the llama, initiates the election OF saliva,
