AJAX ENGINES AND CORY
BOILERS.

If anything was needed to
prove this machinery to be the
oil mans favorite and the best
in the oil field, these figures are
all that is necessary. We sold
nearly 400 Cory boilers in the
same time, making over LOCO
pieces as the years output.
The "Ajax" engine is the
strongest, quickest and most
economical engine ever built,
and the Cory boiler is the
largest, strongest, best con-
structed and most economical
boiler in the field. We now
have a large stock of all sizes
of engines and boilers, together
with engine and boiler parts
and fittings in warehouse in
Pittsburg, and can supply that
vicinity and the southwest more
promptly than any other manu-
facturer. My Pittsburg Office

A token and sign of a last adieu,
And the twilight fell on lonely land,
And over my soul sorrow new;
And you turned into the world from me
Who watched you with eyes whose hot
tears flowed,
The cruel world which could not see
That just begins at the bend of the road.
And trouble dropped on the silent land
With the darkness unstrayed by a moon
or star, .-.
For my hope and my love, and the light,
hand in hand,
Followed you into the future atar. Is
Followed You fain as the heart that sent,
The heart that fingered beneath its load
AS into the great wide world you went,
The world that begins at the bend of the
road.
Tonight at the bend of the road I stand,
And a year has flown and many day,
And the twilight falls on lonely land,
For my love and the light and my hope

hear the far sound of forgetful strife,
And fear tOrlorn doth my soul torebode.
What hast thou done with my lover, my
lie,

A Family Shave.

A Maine family consists OF six broth
ers so exactly alike that no one but
their closest friends can tell which is
which. One day they happened to be
in a strange town and all wanted a
shave. One of them went into a
barber shop, was shaved and paid
the customary 10 cents. Five
minutes later apparently the same
man came back into the shop, very
wrathy, his beard bristling with a
three days growth. He swore that he
had not been half shaved and de.
manded that the work be done over.
The astonished barber apologized
and complied, but judge Of his horror
when not ten minutes later his
customer came back madden than
ever, his beard still showing on his
face, and demanded another shave.
Again the barber, after some protest,
complied; but when his man returned
for the fourth time it was too much.
"See here!" he cried, "if you're try
ing to sell me some patent hair-raiser
I'll take your whole stock, but if you
are an escaped museum freak, either
you've got to get out Of here or I'll
have to close this shop!"
The fifth and sixth brothers had to

$1,000 FOR HIS Whino.
An Anecdote of Ohio's Eccentric
"Oatmeal King"

An Anecdote of Ohio's Eccentric
"Oatmeal King"
know Schumacher, the Ohio oat-
meal king, and an odder little man
you never saw. He's a. German, OF
course, about so years old, about as
big as grasshopper and just as lively,
writes the most vigorous English,
hates whiskey and beer as he does a
liar, and works sixteen hours day.
He came to this country as poor as
church mouse, started a little grocery
and beer saloon, run that awhile, and
then began making oatmeal by a
handmill in his woodshed. Finally
he sold his saloon, peddled oatmeal
and farnia from a hand cart, which he
wheeled about town himself, and in
thirty years built up the largest
factory OF the kind in the world.
He won't hire aman in any capacity
who drinks whiskey or even beer, and
has about him several hundred
employees, who are mostly Germans.
and, strange to say, jealous prohibit
tionists like himself. He once brought
over from Germany a workman who
was master OF a new process. This
man came under a two years con-
tract at large salary, his expenses
being gu aranteed.
The second day after he began work
Schumacher learned that he was O.
beer drinker. In two hours the work
man left the mills, never to return,
and with a check for $4,000 in his
pocket.
This was the price Schumacher had
paid for upholding his principles and
enforcing his rules to the very letter.

A PETRIFIED. HORSE.
The Unique Curiosity Recently
Found In Indian Tos.;+o

The Unique Curiosity Recently
Found In Indian Territory.
There was recently taken from q,
small creek near stringtown, 1. T., g.
genuine curiosity in the shape OF q
petrlfied horse, which had, beyond
doubt, been lying in the bed of the
stream for many years. 49,. The creek,
which is known as Masonic ford, has
been dwindling away for some time,
owing to the failure OF the springs by
whey it is fed and is now but a shall.
low rivulet, and a number of Indian
relics, human bones, ETC., have been
taken from it's bed
The horse was nearly covered by a
deposit of sand and loose limestone
and was discovered only by chance,
some boys wading in the creek catch
Ing sight ola portion of one leg. Ex-
amining this, it was found to have
turned entirely into stone, which led
to the whole being dug out and carried
TO shore. The horse, q large, white
one, seems to be the work of a cunning
sculptor, so completely has the petri-
flcatlon been, even the hairs Of the
name and tail being converted into
stone.
In the neck and piercing one of the
largest VEINS is an arrow, in all prob
ability the cause of it's death, and
which probably struck it as it stood
on the banks Of the creek, into which
1t rolled in it's death agony. It's sides
still show the marks OF a. saddle, and
IT'S TANKS are cut as by spurs used
with desperation, but no brand or
other mark gives a clew to it's rider.
In removing it from the stream one
hoof was unfortunately broken off,
but with this exception it is perfect.
1t is now on exhibition in Stringtown,
but is shortly to be presented to the
Smithsonian Institution, though
several agents for dime museums have
endeavored to secure it for their enter
prises-Philadelphia Times.

A RUSSIAN BASTILE.

The Terrible Prison Of SchlusseI-
burg. Where Even the Guards are
Prisoners.
Some fifty miles from St. Peters
burg upon the lake of Ladoga there is
small granite island, entirely
occupied by a fortress, says Free
Russia. 1t is Sch]usselburg, the
dreadful prison of state-worse than
the French Bastile, worse than the
fortress of st. Peter and st. Paul,
with it's TrOubetzkoi and Aleneevsy
raVellns and it's underground cells.
The most resolute of the revolution
lists, men and women who have taken
part in active conspiracies, whom it is
not considered safe to keep in the
fortress of ST. Peter and St. Paul, are
sent here.
The absence of any inhabitants
except those employed in the service
renders it possible to isolate the
prisoners to a degree unattainable
anywhere else. No one is allowed to
land upon the island. Sentinels have
orders to shoot any one who ap-
proaches. If the near relatives Of a
prisoner inquire concerning him at
the police department in St. Peters
burg they are sometimes told ''Alive'
or "Dead," sometimes no an.
swer is given. The soldiers and guards
are themselves prisoners, who mingle
onl y 18th each other and are carefully
watched on the rare occasions when
they are allowed to make g. visit to
the mainland. 1t was possible to es-
tabllsh secret communications with
even the most jealousy guarded rave
Inns OF the St. Petersburg fortress. But
the fortress of Schlusselburg remained
dumb, like the grave it is.
The Journal continues: THOUGH
some OF the best known men of the
revolution party, in whom the great
est interest was felt among the whole
oody OF revolutionists, were kept here
we rarely could even tell whether they
were alive or dead. A fewmonths ago.
however, our friends in Russia received
some news from this place OF endless
misery. 1t is very brief-only such as
can be conveyed upon q bit Of paper
smugged with the greatest danger
through some friendly hand. It mere
~ tells which OF the prisoners are dead
and which are still alive. But even
this summary is eloquent enough.
We learn from it that out Of the fifty
two prisoners sent there in the course
OF the last eight years 20, or about 40
per cent, are already dead Several
OF those who survive should be added
to the list OF the dead. They are in
sane, and have lost what is rs prec-
lous, il not more precious, ~ a mar
than life.

The Mysteries of Jam Making.

The British Medical Journal says;
An inquiring stranger who was being
shown over a British wine manufac-
tory, was struck by several high
mounds of crimson dust. These he
was told were the refuse of the wine
presses in which the juice of raspber-
ries, currants and other fruit used in
the business was extracted for making
the wine. AS it is seldom that any
thing is wasted in an English factory
an inquiry was made as to the form
in which these mounds of dust would
re-enter the market; the visitor was
promptly told that it was disposed OF
to jam makers to give the appearance
OF fruit to the pulp of turnip, veget-
able, apple, or what not, which forms
the basis of the connection. It would
seem that almost anything will do to
make jam Of, as the chemist can pro-
duce flavor to initiate every kind of
fruit. 1t is commonly supposed that
orange peel is picked up in the streets
wherewith to make marmalade. Prob
ably this is SANDER on the preserve
maker; but according to the report OF
case heard this year in a. metropol-
itan police court, rotten oranges IN
the condition OF a "black PUPPY sub
stance and ''quite unfit to eat as
the inspector sapiently rem arked, are
considered by the owners OF the fruit
as quite good enough to be chopped
up for marmalade. Oranges for this
excellent, substitute for butter at

An Enticing Cordial,

A New Yorker who came down from
Oswego to Syracuse recently was &C.
costed by man on the train, who
said he had toothache, and asked if
the other had anything about him
which might act as a remedy, writes
M. Quad in the New York World.
II always carry little cordial with
me for fear ofsudden Sickness" replied
the New Yorker, as he produced a
flask.
The patient took a large swallow to
hold in his mouth and resumed his
seat, but in the course of five minutes
he returned to say:
'"The ache is purity near gone, and I
think one more dose will finish It,"
He got another swallow and went
away and the second time hereturned
he said:
"Just growls g. leetle now, and if
you don't mind I'll make complete
cure"
ooh! certainly-take some m ore."
It was about ten minutes this time
before the patient returned. He was
looking pretty chirp, but he put a
finger in his mouth and said:
''Jest gives a leetle jerk now and
then and if it wouldn't be askin' too
much I'd
"Help yourself, sir; take right hold. "
When he came back for the fourth
and last time he seemed to be top
heavy and had q very wise look on
his face.
"Well, how's the tooth?" asked the
New Yorker.
"Tlooth all right-all right sir, but I
want to ask you qushun,"
"Drive ahead"
