AT Saint Gall, Switzerland, an old
Colonel named Martignoni has just died
at the age of 80. He had abundant OPP
portunity for acquiring a practical
knowledge Of men and manners. No
romance writer would dare to give his
hero a career so varied as that of old
Martignoni. He began life as a lawyer.
Then he turned soldier, and fought in
the war of the Sonderbuhd. At the
close of that struggle he rose to the
bench and served as judge. Then
fortune deserted him, and he went down
hill until he became street sweeper in
New York and afterward waiter in q
coffee and cake saloon. Soon afterward
he managed to get to California, where
he became miner. Having been cured
of the gold fever he went to England,
joined the army, and served under the
English colors in the, Crimean war. At
the end Of that difficulty he went to the
Argentine Republic. There again for
tune deserted him, and in few years
he returned to Europe. He labored as
railroad conductor, policeman. and
town clerk, and at last settled down
to quiet life in his native country.
His final request was original and easily
granted. 1t was that nobody, except
the undertaken and his assistants. should
attend his funeral.

E. s. WILSON, a blacksmith of Ozark,
No., has q relic of the Marshfeld cy-
clone which occurred on April Is, 1880,
that is very remarkable curiosity. This
witness of one of the freaks of the great
storm is black quart bottle, bent by
some mysterious force into an elliptic
circle without crack or break in the
glass that the closest scrutiny can dis
cover. The neck of the bottle actu-
ally touches tho edge of the bottom,
and the fact that the glass was not
broken in any way by the force of the
storm is shown by its holding water or
any other fluid. By gradually turning
the bottle as the water is poured in, it
can be nearly filed to its full capacity,
SO as to show the perfect soundness of
the material. This bottle was found
by Mr.. Wilson the day after the Marsh
field disaster and examined by Prof.
Tice. The meteorologist attributed
the bending of tile bottle to the force of
electricity, and considered this one of
the most wonderful results of the agency
at work in the storm cloud. The bot
tie was found in the wreck of one of the
Marshfield drug stores.

THE Gainesville Fla.) AdUocate re-
lates this funny incident of the phos-
phste craze in that State: "A tall,
lank cracker entered a chemists office
the other day with a handkerchief full
of rock, and said, in husky but eager
and excited whisper: Mister, be you
alone?' Yes, SIR Can I lock this
doorY yes, if you wish to- After
locking the door and seeing that no one
was hiding anywhere, the cracker
slowly undid his handkerchief and
handed some rock to the chemist for
his inspection, and asked: What do
you think of that's? The chemist care
fully examined it and said: I do not
think much of it, at the same time
pouring some acid on it which caused it
to effervesce like double refined seid-
litz powder. Cracker-What does that
show? Chemist-That shows it is a
first class sample of lime, with no bone
phosphate about it. Cracker Boss,
are you sure about that stuff? Chem
ist-Yes. very sure. Cracker with a
long-drawn breath We'll, I've mar
ried widder with hill plumb full OF
that stuff, an I thought it was phos-
phate. Say, boss, I'm in fer it, amt I?

A New York manager has offered
Henry M. Stanley $1,000 lecture for
fifty lectures to be delivered in Amer
lea next winter, and the great explorer
has not yet signifed whether he will ac-
cept the offer or not This is probably
the biggest offer ever made for series
of lectures in this country. 1t would
take some wonderful calculation to
figure out a profit for any manager who
makes such generous offer as that.
Henry M. Stanley is doubtless the
greatest attraction for the platform in
the world, but $1,000 lecture is gilt
edged even for him.

RICHARD THOMAS, man who died in
West Haven, Conn, recently, at the
age of 81 years, was born and always
lived in the house where he died. The
house is believed to have stood $50
years. In the rear part of the house
are bullet holes made by the British
troops when they landed at West Haven
during the revolution. A family tradi-
tion handed down by Mr.. Thomas is
that the invading troops entered his
house, ate all the food that was there
and attempted to carry away some per-
sonal property.

IF the Bonaparte family could only
have waited eighty-two years, now,
when Spain seems likely to run
short of Kings, would be their time for
settling the Spanish succession to their
liking. In 1903 the opportunity was

leon. The fine old trade of "Royalist"
is waning like another, is itnot? "Cards

DIR. HENRY J. W. TOMBSTONE, who
died recently in England at the age Of
SO, lived at Boulogne during the stormy
times which followed the abdication Of
Louis Philippe and the coup d'etat. In
these events he took a keen interest,
and he was the hero of an episode
which, in the words of the London
Times, is probably unique in the his
tory of journalism. In 1851-b2 he ad-
dressed to the Times q series of letters,
remarkable for their powerful invective,
exposing and condemning Napoleon's
imperial designs. That these letters,
which appeared with the signature of
"An Englishman," displayed great tai
ent may fairly be assumed, since the
editor of the Times published them,
though unauthenticated by name and
address. In fact, it was not till after
Mr.. Johnstone's death that the Times
became acquainted with the authorship
of these letters, which were attributed
at the time to various persons of emf
nence.

was found that there were 1000 per-
