A very meagFe dispatch Of . recent date
hrings the news Of the death at Chicago
a Frank /. FFayne, whose health has

Frayne, who also filed very important

''mimic stage"
Fifteen years ago Frank Frayne was
the chief exponent Of the lurid border
drama, were red shirted heroes killed
whole tribes Of Indians single handed.
He was So years Of age when he died, and
the best half Of his life had been spent
on the stage. He was dead shot with

feais Of real sOoting on the stage. So
proficient was he that in one Of his

He also performed nightly the remark
able feat Of shooting an apple from
woman's head. To minimize the danger
the Woman's hair was built up three or
four inches from her head, but although
Frayne performed this feat successfully
for many years, the inevitable result Of
too long familiarity with . dangerous
experiment happened, and one night
the bullet missed its mark and crashed
through the unfortunate woman's brain,
killing her instantly. Some held that
FEayne's hand trembled, but on the

alleged that on the night Of the accident
tire woman had neglected to build up her

on FFayne that Il was thought the
accident had turned his brain. He spent

Or Would Be Aristocrats.

Thousands of American young men of
fair education and excellent possibilities,
captivated by the pictures of English
aristocratic life drawn in English novels,
are learning to despise the simple, ra.
tional, useful life of the worthy Amer
lean citizen, and to court consideration
and vulgar popularity by adopting the
habits and leading the useless lives of
English lords. AS is usual in such cases
the copy is caricature of the original
The untitled American lord proves usu-
ally to be a vulgar creature, having to
assert his self-conferred lordship by all
that's most unattractive, most inhumane
and most un-American-and that is q
good deal-in the English aristocrat.
In England aristocracy has no need to
display or to obtrude itself; in America
it can exist only by display and obtru-
sion. For this reason the American
would be nobleman must necessarily
court attention and try to strike the vul-
gar imagination by the mere accidentals
of aristocracy, such as any boorish Dives
can commandments, horses, turnouts,
yachts, opera boxes and the like. And
the vulgar are impressed by such things,
bow down in servile reverence before
them and do their best tomake similar
diplay.-Professor Thomas Davidson in

He Had a Friend at Court.

A laugh was raised in the United
States district court by the testimony of
John Boye, resident of Lewiston, NY.
Boye is old and somewhat deaf, and gave
his testimony with an air of childlike in
nocence. The following dialogue took
place on cross examination: did Rich
ever sue you?" eyes" ''Did he beat
your" mo" "You beat hi1n?" eyes. +"
''He caused you trouble and expense2"
"Yes, little" "You had to hire a
lawyer" mo" "Did he hire lawyer?'
Eyes" "You did not have one?" "No."
care you a pettifogger and try cases
yourself sometimes" mo" What did
you do when you were sued, if you did
not get a lawyer" 81 got the magis-
trate." The laugh that followed this
reply indicated that some of those pres
ent appreciated the Importance of hay
ing the favor of the court.-Utica OBJ

The Theory and Art of Handshaking.

Why do we shake hands? No one ap-
pears to know. 1t does not mean much, if
anything Who has not suffered from the
strong and hearty grasp of, let US fondly
hope, ardent friendship, when our, per-
haps, ringed hand is wrung with fervor?
Who has not suffered from the man who,
when you meet him, holds your hand as if
it were pump handle for ten minutes and
will not let go? Who has not suffered
from that other who will not hold On at all
but allows you to do the shaking process
for him? Who is unacquainted with the
man with the clammy hand' Why must
we shake hands with him? Yet we all do
it; we dislike it; we dislike it very much,
even; he sees we dislike it, that it is posi-
lively distasteful to US; yet, meet him to-
morrow, and out comes his hand once
more to ingulf your own.
An excellent English authority says that
the fieur des pois, the creme de la creme,
the quite too-too people, do not indulge in
this practice as much as theupper and low
er middle classes, for there every one
shakes hands with every one on entering
and leaving a room, on meeting in the
street and on saying good morning, !"
good night" or 'goodby."
III Is not lOr Il uOLneuL meant 10 say UnaG
the grasp of hand is always bore; not
at all. The gentle pressure and the unmis-
taxable grasp of love, that is handshaking;
but the vapid how dos Of some of the
young ladies and gentlemen of today, as,
with raised elbow, limp wrist and scarcely
pressing fingers, they give you a sort of
horizontal shake in bored way, is absurd.
One of the most unpleasant persons to
shake hands with is the nervous man, who
cannot make up his mind whether 70 shake
hands with you or not; who does not hold
out his hand when you offer yours; but the
moment you have withdrawn, and peck
eted your hand, stuffs his out, to be again
perhaps withdrawn again too soon for you
to catch and shake it. This specimen may
be considered and claSsed with his twin
bore, the person who does not know which
side of the pavement he proposes passing
you upon. and who does a sort of imbecile,
lodging, cavalier seul before you in an
agony of INDIGESTION. There is only one
thing to be done with him, walk straight
at him, and you are safe.

Eyes of Different PennIe.

Eyes have always been regarded as a
sure tribal characteristic. Tacitus, for
example, describes the Germans as
''ferce, with blue eyes and red hair. :"
The Celts are mentioned as being swarthy
skinned and black eyed; the Gauls are
red haired and light eyed, while the Nj
bians, the Turks, the Egyptians and the
Italians have always been spoken Of as
''the dark eyed races" These peculiari-
ties have not changed. Even today the
people of the temperate zones have gen.
orally light colored eyes, while those of
the torrid and the frigid zones are usu-
ally dark, or even black. Of the races
in particular, the only one that can be
said to be eight eyed" is the Caucasian,
and even in this race the eyes are by no
means uniform in point of color.
The whole period of human history
goes to prove that the light haired, blue
eyes races are capable of the highest de-
gree of civilization, but it does not by any
means follow that the highest degree of
civilization is confined to people of blonde
complexion. There was time when a
blue eyed person was rarely seen, and
today seven-e1ghths of the worlds in
habitants have dark eyes. Lavater,
when discussing the eye as feature in
national physiognomy, gave the follow
ing as the results Of his observations:
1.-The Italians have small eyes; the Ger
mans, light colored eyes surrounded by
many wrinkles; the English, strong,
open, steadfast eyes; and the Swiss, eyes
that are very dull looking."-St. Louis

To Improve the Lungs.

A device recently invented for the
promotion Of deep breathing is likely to
be of value to fat chested, round shout
dered and weak lunged people. The de-
vice Is a small belt or cord which encir-
Giles the chest at the point of its greatest
expansion, and take up mechanism to
which the ends of the belt or cord are
attached. The take up mechanism con-
sists of coiled spring, adapted to
tighten the belt at intervals, and train
OF wheels, by which the speed of the
spring in taking up the belt may be reg
ulated. Upon the exhalation of the
breath, after the full expansion of the
lungs, the chest returns to the size nat
ural to it in ordinary breathing, thus
leaving the belt loose. Immediately the
take up mechanism begins to gather in
the slack of the belt, which it continues
to gather, and finally it tightens the belt
about the chest until the pressure is IN
comfortable to the wearer, and compels
him to take another full inspiration,
thus frightening the belt.
This frightening is accomplished by
the withdrawal of the strap from the
case, which act again coils the spring.
The spring in turn, when the breath is
exhaled and the chest resumes its nat
ural size, again begins to gather up the
slack of the belt These processes con-
tinue as long as the device is worn. It
is claimed that the device induces full
breaths at intervals, and thus naturally
strengthens and enlarges the lungs and
chest.-New York Telegram.

The Gflanf Rnatnnan

"Who can swim? Who can swim?'
shouted a man who wanted to cross a
river in a boat. A crowd Of boatmen
gathered round him, crying. 81 can, sig
more, can!'
Only one was silent and remained in
his boat all the time.
Sand can't you swim?" inquired the
stranger.
mo-" was the mans curt reply.
i'Then you shall take me across"
The gentleman had adopted this meth
cd to escape the importantly of rival
boatmen in that part Of the country;
perhaps also he shrewdly suspected that
man who could not swim would be
the safer pilot.-Capitan Fracassa.

PToMAlNE POISONING.
Cases Of Considerable Rarity in the His
tory of the Healing Art.

Cases Of Considerable Rarity in the His
tory of the Healing Art.
The husband and two children of the
poisoned family in Highlands are better.
It Is case Of ptomaine poisoning, and
the.fact that that kind of poisoning is
exceedingly rare makes it most interest
ing. 1t comes from putrid meats and
vegetables, and also exists in cheese. 1t
is poisonous salt developed in the proc
ess of putrefaction, and case of this
kind of poisoning israrely seen so marked
rs this case, because it is seldom that
people eat meats that are pronouncedly
tainted.
In this case the meat was in the most
dangerous stage, and all that ate it were
very sick An evidence which shows
that this was case Of ptomaine poison
ing resulting from the meat is that the
family upstairs ate some of the same
meat, which was cooked, and were very
sick for.s5wo days, but recovered. Symp-
toms of this kind Of poisoning, accord
ing to DR.. .Lutze's statement, are violent
vomiting and purging and pinched ex-
preston of the face. This is often mis-
taken by the best physicians for other
troubles, and such mistake is not sur
prising when the best chemists do not
thoroughly understand the nature Of
these cases and the poison.
1t is blood poison by absorption, and
its effect is first upon the blood, pro-
ducing tissues of the capillary circula-
ton. In reality death commences at the
surface and continues inwardly until the
heart is reached. Its secondary effect is
on the vasomotor nerves which regulate
the circulation. DR.. Lutte called DR..
Sewers in consultation on the case, and
both are satisfied that this is clear case
of ptomaine poisoning.
Regarding the rarity of such cases DR..
Lutte says he has in his practice never
seen but one, and that was the case of
man in New Jersey. In that instance
the cause was putrid fish. A whole fam
lily was stricken down and five died. DR..
Sewers says he never saw case with
fatal results before. In giving the pc
cpliar effects of the poison he cited a
medical work which is compiled from
the best authorities over the world:
mo characteristic post-mortem ap-
pearances are recognizable. The body
is emaciated and the skin bleached and
parchment-like. Rigor morris begins
early and continues longer than usual,
and putrefactionis delayed in some cases,
but very rapid in others. The mucous
membrane of the mouth and pharynx is
often white, dry and parchment-like or
horny. The mucous membrane is fire.
quently congested and sometimes cachy-
matte. The spleen is sometimes en-
larged, congested and extremely soft and
friable. The blood, as a rule, is dark
and contains no foreign organisms or
elements. The corpuscles are unaltered.
The lungs are frequently congested and
oedematous."
"Often," says DR.. Lutte, "the symp-
toms are the same as in the case of ar
senic poisoning, but this is not always
so."-Denver News.
