 Against Would Bo Jumpers.
 "There goes man who has killed his twentieth man." said a guest at Hurst's 10 St. Louis Republic reporter, The man alluded to was of medium height and stout Luild, with raven black hair and mustacho. lie had a black eye which flashed with a strange light when ever their owner became excited or in terested. His name is Cal Fairbanks" continued the reporters informant and he was formerly a resident of St. Louis. About fifteen years ago he went to Colo rado, and near Pueblo struck mine which had been deserted. The mine, however, had been proved up, and hIr. Fairbanks bought it for triaing sum, went to work upon it, and it soon de- veloped that it was Q rich mine. He went to Denver, placed his n. re On the market under tho namc of Little Jennie and sold his interests for al independ- ent fortune. But while he was develop ing this niao ho had serious trouble. 4 nan who WIS . favorite in tho mining camp drew 8 gun on Mir. Fairbanks one Gay, but tho nan from St. Louis was quick aai he shot first. As a result the camp favorite dropped dead. This kill ing created a good deal of enmity against Fairbanks, and before he had finished developing his claim he killed nineteen men. All this occurred in about a year. believe Fairbanks him self was shot twice, but neither of the bullets inflicted wounds which might be called serious. To-day he is in tho pri1ie of life, and by shrawd spocala- tion has managed to accumulate 8 fort- l,ne. Eo is Q bachelor of steady habits and is q woman hata-'

AN ODD STEAMBOAT.
How an Ingenious Negro Built One Out :s- Of Odds and Ends.

How an Ingenious Negro Built One Out ;- Of Odds and Ends.
 , Some amusing descriptions have been written about the homemade steamboat that plies on the St. Paul river, Liberia, but very little has been said of the me- chanfcal genius who knocked the boat together out of material that was never intended for steamboat.
 His name is Irons and he used to be a slave in South Carolina. Awhile ago he made up his mind that it was high time there was g steam mboat plying on the St.Paul river between Monrovia and the first rapids. He secured the engine of an abandoned sugar-cane crusher, and went to work to build his steamer. He took a canoe fifty feet long and ripped it from stem to stern with saw He placed the halves nine feetapart, ribbed and plankcd them, and before long the hull was ready for the machinery Hardly any two pieces of the machinery were ever together before. He had to make a score of things before he could induce that engine to turn a paddle-wheel, He picked up bits of iron shafting and so on here and there, and with the aid of blacksmith shop knocked them into shape so that they would work smooth ly together. He made pair of paddle wheels, built deck-house, secured an old steam-whistle, fitted up a rudder- wheel, launched his creation and was ready for business.
 This man was once an illiterate slave on cotton plantation, but inventive talent was born in him. His side-wheel steamer is not conspicuous for speed or beauty, but she is serviceablo, and is noteworthy as the first steamboat ever built in Africa and probably tho first that was ever built out of picked-up material. One of Liberia's disadvantages is the fact that the former slaves who compose her Citi- zens are most of them poor, rot only in purse, but also i'll intellectual equip ment. But she has her men of mark like Dr. Blyden, who would be respected any where for their attainIlonts and ability; and she has reason to be proud of such a man as Irons, who was known for his re- markable inventive ard mechanical talent long before he built Liberia's first steamboat.

GEORGE HOLLANDS JOKE.
How the Great Comedian Once Upon a
 Time Hooked Policeman.

From "The Autobiography of Joseph Jefferson" in the Century, we quote as follows: George Holland was distinctly an actor of the old school, invariably in- trOducing even into modern characters it's traditions and conventionalities; his effects were broadly given, and his per sonality was essentially comic. He was quite an old man when 1 first knew him. and I had serious doubts as to whether our acquaintance in the thcater would be an agreeable Q. Tor by the terms of my engagement was to hold a lead ing part as the commedian of the com pany, and he, who had always occupied that station, was placed as second to me. l naturally thought that feeling himself comparatively subordinate, and that l, Q younger man, was to OUtrank him, he would, by his manner at least, resent my intrusion upon his former ground. was, however, agreeably mis- taken; for I found him too generous a man to harbOr any jealous feelings, and to my qualification we were friends from our first meeting. It is pleasant also to know that this relationship extended over many years, and up to the day of his death.
 ''The useful career and unblemished character of George Holland will be re- called by all who knew him. He lived, Q bright and cheerful spirit, in this world for eighty years, for time could not age his youthful heart. lie was the merriest man 1 ever knew. Practical joking was passion with him, and though his pranks were numerous, by some good fortune they always ended innOcently and with harmless mirth l remember that on one occasion, when some goldfish had been placed in the ornamental fountain in Union Square, Holland dressed himself in full sport ing suit, and with 8 fish-baslzet strapped upon his shoulder, broad d-brimmed hat upon his head and rod in his hand, he unfolded camp-stool, and quietly seat ing himself in front of the fOun tain be- gan to fish, with such patient and earnest look in his face that no one could have supposed that it was intend ed as practical joke. This strange spectacle soon attracted curious crowd
 
 and idiotic smile sat there quietly awaiting nibble. A policeman soon forced his way through the crowd and arrested Holland, who explained with a bewildered look that he was fishing in his own private grounds. The police man naturally concluded that the in- truder was some harmless lunatic, and, batting him kindly on the shoulder, bade him go home to his friends. Hol- land burst into flood of tears, and while affectionately embracing the guardian of the law contrivcd to fasten the fish-Aool1 into the collar of the po- liceman's coat. who walked slowly and sympathetically away, unconsciously dragging the line and rod after him. The crowd, seeing the joke, roared with laughter, as Holland quickly made his way to the nearest omnibus, which he reached before the infuriated policeman could catch him"

Oblitcratlnr t,o L.nes.

No thoughtful person can fail to see how the lines arc being oblitorated and how men are taking up the work of wo- men and women that of mon, and both succeeding, because workitself has been forced into broader lines by the com bined influence of society and humanity. Women lawyers want to bo known as lawyers, not women. Women doctors want to be known as sliIlful physicians, not as women; and the woman writer sends out her work under male nomen- clature that it may tte5udgcd upon it's merits and not handicapped by the esti- mate that the followers of tradition and the interiors of prejudice always put upon york signed by Q woman's name.

q Curious Anas;hetic.

A curious arasthetic used by the Chinese has recently been made known by Dr. '. Lambuth in his third annual report of tho Soochow Hospital. It is obtained by placing frog in jar of four and irritating it by prodding it. Under these circumstances it exudes g liquid which forms paste with the four. This paste dissolved in water has well-marlled anaesthetic properties. After the finger has been immersed in the liquid for few minutes it can be cut to the bone without pain being felt.
