afternoon the first trial case, an appeal
from the district court taken up by Mary

with the fiery headed plaintiff, the jury
decided in favor of Grigg & Co.

and ltigants were so greatly interested in
the success of city incorporation that
they absolutely had no time to look after

atty. In the two states he was two
entirely different men.
He was hypnotized many times,
and attempts were made by all sorts
of articles to effect at least q partial
fusion OF his Brown condition ana his
normal condition. but these effects
were quite unsuccessful. The only
result was that his hypnotic memory
grew more and more feeble. until
finally he could recollect only the
barest outlines of his Brown expe-
rienee.
His statements concerning that ex-
perience were, of course, verified as
far as posslble. 1t was not until last
week, however, that the boarding
house at No. Ills Filbers street was
found to have existed otherwise than
in his imagination. When Prof
James wrenched his hypnotic nara

torn down and replaced by mercan-

its former occupants were lost. And
only q few days ago did Prof James
receive word that they had been dis.

arrival at their house, and his depar.

A CHILD'S HEAD SEVERED.
A Youth Four Years of Age Beheade

Youth Four Years of Age Beheaded
by Street-Car.
One of the most distressing street acct
dents seen in Brook iyn for long time was
wtnessedin Hamilton avenue recently. The
victim was little Johnnie Devlin, a four-year-
old boy, who had gone out of his mothers
sight and wandered to the junction OF Van
Brunt street and Hamilton avenue. Here
he became delighted with game of hide
and seek a crowd OF boys were PLAYING.
Most of tbs boys were older aud stronger
than Johnnie, and when one of the HamiI-
ton ferry horse-carS came along they were
all able to get out of the way except he.
Johnnie was supposed to have seen the car
as he was toddling to get across the racks,
There were lots of people in the vicinity.
and some of them who saw the boys dam
gerous position shouted, while the horses
were coming up at a quick trot only few
yards from him.
1t was too late. The breast of one of the
horses struck Johnnie's head and he fell
crosswlSe between the tracks. The horses
kept their hoofs clear of him, but over a
score of people saw that a worse fate was
in store for him, for his head just reached
beyond the outer track, his neck being on
the rail.
In an instant the outer fore wheel rolled
over his little neck, completely seyering the
head from the body.
The head rolled outward. The car was
stopped, and the passengers who alighted
were compelled TO turn their heads away at
the pathetic and dreadful sight.
The horses were unyoked and the car
pushed forward. as the boys body was
underneath. A cover was thrown over it
to eiude the gaze of hundreds who had
collected.-N. Y. Press.

H0AXED THE DUKE.
How Florence Duped The Duke of Beau
fort

How Florence Duped The Duke of Beau
fort.
Many stories are being recalled nowadays
about Florence's trip to the Restigouche.
He first made acquaintance with this world
famous salmon river through the Duke of
Beaufort. Florence and the Duke Of Beau
fort became fast friends upon very short
acquaintance. This friendship was kept up
until the end. The acquaintance was
brought about through Edward Sothern,
and the three had many jolly time to-
gether.
Upon one occasion the Duke of Beaufort
was stopping at the Gilsey House, in this
city. He and Sothern had ''put up several
successful practical jokes on Florence, and
he was hiding his time for chance to get
even. One day he told the Duke Of Beau
fort that he needed exercise.
you're not looking WE'LL" said he. 81
was troubled just that way, and prize
fighter put me on TO scheme for starting
the circulation and stirring up the dormant
muscles"
"Pd like to try il" was the reply. What
do you have to do?''
why, it's just like this" said Florence.
" You strip to your underclothlng. Then
take a chair and run about the room a hun
dred times, lowering and raising the chair
as you CO."
By Jove, I think that's good scheme"
said the Duke Pm going to try it. What
would be the best time to begin"
I'D tackle it this afternoon, about an
hour after lunch"
Florence knew that several people of con-
sequence were going to call upon the Duke
at that time in the afternoon. and he lay in
wait for them.
Going up to see his Grace?"
Eyes, is he IMP"
Hes in" said Florence, 'sbut say, look
here, Pm afraid the old man is touched in
the head: l think he's off his base, and,
now that think of it. | believe there's in
sanity in the family. But YOU go up and
see for yourself When l left he was run
ming around the room brandishing a chair.
Florence took them up and gave the Wis
itors peep through the door. The Duke,
conscientiously going through the pro-
gramme outlined for him, was sweating and
putting. His friends were tbunderstruck,
and we're going to cable to his family in
England when SOthern came in, took in the
situation at glance, and rushed at Flor
ence saying. "Ah, you beggar. this is some
of your doing."-N Y. World

HE WAS DEAD.
How a Coroner's Inquiry Was Conducted

How Coroner's Inquiry Was Conducted
in San Diego County.
While the gently falling rain was doing the
best business that could be done for San
Diego County to-day, says the Julian san
Diegan, group of old timers gathered in an
uptown Office and fell to telling old-time
stories. One of the stories told was in the
form of joke on Julian, as Julian was in
the old times, of course.
An old miner named Tim was found dead
in his cabin one morning said the story-tel-
Ter. There appeared to be lingering idea
that something official ought to be done, but
nobody knew exactly what until stran ger
in camp said an inquest ought to be held to
determine whether the man was really dead
or not.
the Justice of the Peace, whose position
forced him to the font.
- Why, by holding regular inquest" was
the answer.
IAN right" said the Justice, "we'll hold
a regular inquiry. Bring in the body"
The body was brought in and the court
was called to order. When everybody was
quiet the Justice arose with commendable
dignity, walked over to the side of the de-
ceased and. leaning down, shouted In the
dead mans ear:
Say, Tim, come take a drink"
OF course there was no answer.
The inquiry was repeated three times.
Then the Justice returned to his bench to
make bis announcement.
I'VE find that Tim is dead" he said.
ANY man in Julian that won't get up and
tade drink when he's asked to is dead
The INQUIRY is closed"

Eyes, sir, held him."
''Yes. sir, he hurt me, but the big black
robber couldn't get away. sir"
Bridget Smyth, a pretty young Irish girl,
with voice as soft as pussy purr, answered
Justice Kelly's question about the assault
Of Joseph Green, stalwart colored buck,
in Jefferson Court, New York. The Justice
looked at Miss Smyth and then at the burly
prisoner, and said sotto voce, "Well, you
are plucky girl" and then aloud, Held in
$1,000 bail for General Sessions"
The story of Bridget Smyth in the COM
plant she swore to was this: That at night
about s AS o'clock she was on her way to
No. 67 Carmine street, where she lives with
her sister, Mrs. Griffen, and at the corner
Of Washington place and Sixth avenue this
big coored man came up behind her. put
his arm around her neck, choked her and
snatched her pocket-hook from her hand
yelled, sir" said she, but it seems be-
cause of the cold night there were very few
people out, and nobody answered the yell.
The negro started to run, but Bridget
clutched him, and then ''the dirty brute hit
me in the breast and knocked me down. but
l cIutched his leg and he fell, too, sir" to
quote Miss Smyth again.
BEFORE the garroler could do any more
damage Policeman j. ID. McIsaac of the
Ninth Precinct came up and arrested him.

A NEW KIND OF BIG HEAD.

1t Comes From Pooling Around Nitro
G1ycerine Explosives.
"a Ditro-glyceriue headache Will make a
man about as uncomfortable under his hat
as anything know Of" said an old oil-pro-
Queer from Bradford, Pa, last evening
to a group of men who were discussing
the sensational attempt upon Russell
Sage's life "a single Whit from can of
the explosive will make a man imagine he
is just getting over the effects of a night
with the boys. Nitro-gl ycerine, as you
may know, is utilized very extensively in
the oil country for shooting oil wells. Hun
dreds OF tons of the explosive are used every
year, and the men who manufacture ii and
torpedo wells would make a small army il
they were all turned loose together in Cen
trail Park. The business they follow, too,
Is about as dangerous as the, military busi-
ness in war time, for not year passes that
dozen or more shooters. as the men who
torpedo the wells are called, do not get
blown up. Nitro-glycerine goes off at a
very slight shock, or at contact with fire,
and In the oil country man who handles
glycerine Is looked upon as an unfortunate
being with one foot in the grave. The
chances are ten to one that if he sticks to the
business long enough he will be blown up.
"a nitro-glycerine headache is caused by
the smell of the nitric and sulph uric acids
which are used in making the explosives.
Sweet glycerine oil, as every one knows, is
very harmless liquid, but when subjected
to the action of the two acids named the re-
Sulting milk-like fluid is the most deadly eX-
plosive agent known. Men who make nitro
glycerine are at first subject to these ter
riiic headaches, but after few days in the
factory they become acclmated to the smell,
II such an expression be permissible. But
if they knock off work for a day or two they
arc compelled to undergo the acclimatlng
experience again.
"A single drop of nitro-glycerine exploded
upon an anvil with a sledge hammer would
probably blow the hammer thirty feet in the
air. l knew of q blacksmith who was re-
Pairing nitro-glycerine wagon in the oil
country one day, when there was loud ex-
ploSi0n and the wagon was literally taken
all apart and scattered about his shop. A
few drops of glycerine had leaked from the
cans and lodged In the framework of the
wagon. Strange to relate. the blacksmith
escaped injury, but he at once hung up in
his window a little card upon which was
written in sledge- hammer hand:
NO NITRo-GLYcERINE WAGONS NEED APPLY
One day, in the Titusvle oil field, a nitro
glycerine manufacturer was standing in
front OF hotel, absent mindedly kicking
the flag stone walk, when there was a report
about as loud as the snap of cap, the man
flew up in the air about foot, and let out
yell that was heard block away. When he
got back on terra firma again and looked at
his feet the shoe was torn all to pieces. In
working about his glycerne mandatory he
had evidently saturated his shoe with few
drops OF the explosive, which were set off by
the stamping of his fOot"-N. Y. Press.
