KEELEY'S CANT AM "CURE."

DIR. Kelley, who refuses to divulge
the principle Of his alleged cure for
drunkenness, at least while he is
making thousands of dollars week
out of victims Of a vice, has taken re
fuge in cant. ~ regard Koch's dis
covery," he said recently, "as the
grandest thing since tho, days Of
Christ" But it is lost to the world,
he adds, because after Koch gave it
out incompetent and dishonest drug
gists put it up wrong; and now, as it
has failed to do what Koch clai ned
for it, Koch has retired, "heart- broken,
Inundated, ruined" Therefore Keel
ey will hold on to his nostrum SO long
as patients are to be had in paying
numbers. 81 look upon this cure"
he told another reporter, "as given me
by Almighty God for the benefit Of
the wives, mothers and daughters Of
the world" Aside from tho atrocious
blasphemy that Almighty has Sc.
creted for unknown centuries the
only cure for a vice as old as the vine
or the still, and then packed out one
Keeley in Dwight, Illinois, to peddle
itout for cash to 60 into bis private
pocket, the cant of the man is enough
to arouse suspicion.
Koch failed in his own laboratory,
in the hospital directed by himself,
under the protection Of pharmacists
dealing Nth only his own prescrip-
ton and using drugs selected by him
self. The most conspicuous "cure"
by Keeley, Colonel Flavel Scott

himself for his nostrum by exploiting
it in the North American ReUieao

Pretty Matte Fake was at one time
the only feminine station agent on

pany decided to uniform all it's agents,

clothing to the Cowie Brothers. In
order to expediate matters Ned Cowie
sent the following telegram to all the
agents along the line:
BE on the platform when No. 10
passes, with nothing on but your
pants and shirt"
Cowie was thus enabled to measure
the candidates in short order and pass

Cowie jumped off, looked around and
said: "Well, where's the agent?" A
stalwart youth, who happened to be
Miss Faks's brother, stepped up and
asked if he was the man who sent the
agent telegram. Cowie answered
in the affirmative, and the fellow
started to climb him. 1t took half an

Fake, but everybody laughed SO ovel

SNAKE STORIES UNDER OATH.
A Remarkable Record Sworn to by Gov

Remarkable Record Sworn to by Gov
ernmcnt Surveyors.
A snake story that has no precedent
appears in the field notes Of the govern
ment survey of King county, WASH, in
1864. These notes are now on record in
the Office of Tic county. auditor. The
surveyors made tho following entry
under date OF September 21:
"Snnkc valley. The land is level and
Eravelly; timber straight and scatter
ing, without undergrowth; point about
five chains north from the northwest
shore of Tradition lake. Area about
twelve acres. Notc-Thc ground in this
Vicinity is almost entirely covered with
various species of spalles. They wcr'
l1nottcd together In heaps upon tic
fallen timber and hung dangling frcIi
the lower limbs of small trees. Many
were observed dcvouring or disgorgirg
other snakes of lesser siZc.''
The last entry in these records was
made in 1882, and the territorial sur
vcyor general of that time, William
McAIickcn, has IN affidavit on the fly
leaf that ''thc transcript of the field
notes is correctly copied from the origi-
nal notes on file in my Office" So the
responsibility for the story rests with

Prof. Tosotti who, in the afternoon of
n squally day, looking eastward through
the window Of a house in northern
Italy, winch, with TWO oJncrs, lncloscd

down from the roof to the right caught
by very cold wind froEa the north, and
driven back and up in thick drops. Sud.
denly south wind blow, and the DROPS,
tossed about in all directions, were
transformed into iccballs. When the
south wind ceased this transformation
also ceased, but whenever the south
wind REQUIRED the phenomenon was re-
produced, and this was observed three
or four times in ten minutes.

AN ANIMATED ORNAMENT.
a Canary Bird Worn as IN Adjunct to
Dress.


To the attentive Observer the inside of
Washington street car nearly always
presents something entertaining, says a
Washington letter. The other day
woman luttcrcd into an avenue car
and took seat. She had rings ON her
fingers and in her cars and may have
had bells on her toes for all the writer
knows. She had flowers in her hair
and in the point of her V-shapcd cor
sage was a beautiful bouquet. COM
posed of fresh roscbuds and fern leaves
and other delicate grecnery, And there,
just above the bouquet, with it's little
claws firmly planted on her white
throat, was good-siZcd live canary
bird, the yellow of it's fcathercd coat
dccpcncd by the contrast between it
and the green leaves nibbling away at
these with what seemed to be q very
healthy appetite. The woman and the
bird Immediately bccnrnc objects of in
tarHst to the other passengers, who
were certainly cxcusab!c for staring,
and one Interested observer detected Il
fine thread tied around n leg Of the
bird and secured TO the woman5 dress
waist with a fancy pin. She rode the
length of the avenue and got out, the
bird never making an attempt to fly
away from its abiding place and the
passengers smiled in concert us the
queer combination passed out of sight.
