HANGING in CHAINS
An Obsolete Method of Executing Grim

An Obsolete Method of Executing Grim
ina1s.
One of the last instances of an order
being made for hanging in chains is
that of chimney sweep, who in 1927
murdered man on the highway on the
east side of Brigg. The culprit was
tried by Mr.. Justice Best. at Lincoln
assizes. At this time, says the Athena
UNI, what used to be called the new law
courts were building, SO the Dean and
chapter lent their chapter house for the
purposes of an assize court. The trial
lasted all day. The poor wretch's
body never underwent the proposed in
dignity. The inhabitants of Brigg took
riglt-thought, it has been suggested,
that the gibbet standing SO near the
highway would terrify people and
hinder them from coming to market:
they petitioned against the Judges order
being carried out, and the authorities
:remitted the horror. Mr.. Hartshorne
believes, and we have no doubt cor
.rectly, that the last person hung in
chains was a. man named Cook, who
suffered for the murder Of Mr. Paas.
This occurred at Leicester in 1884, the
very year that the custom was put ar
end to by statute.

''My father was once travelling in
Europe and fell in with an English
banker and his family says ST.
Louis Globe Democrat gossiper. 1.-THE
banker was a man of wealth, a uni
versity graduate. a fine scholar and in
every way refined, polished gentle
man. One morning while stopping at
a Swiss hotel my father came down to
breakfast and found his friend in a
high state of nervous excitement. He
could not eat anything, was fdgeting
in hi chair and was evidently SO much
disturbed that my father asked what
was the matter. DO you see that gen.
tleman at the end of the tablet said
the Englisman, in an awe-struclx whis-
per; that is the earl of Tyrone But
what is the matter with you?' was the
reply. Come, now said the English
man, you can't pretend that when so
great man as that is at the same
table with you you feel just as if some
nobody was there?' I don know about
that said my father. DO you see that
man ON the other side of the table?

in a Railroader.
An English engineer, forty years of
age, was recently dismissed from his
situation because he was unable to
correctly distinguish colors. DR.. M.
Reich, who examined the man, and who
afterward published the results Of his
examinations in a Russian paper, found
sight, focus and sensation of light nor
NAL, and discovered no disease by the
ophthalmoscope, yet the patient could
distinguish no co1ors when of a dark
shade, and only yellow and blue when
of a light shade. The patient assured
DR.. Reich that he had been able to>dis-
tinguish colors correctly and with con-
fdence up to the summer of 1889. He
said that through over-exertion and in
sufdciency of sleep he had then suffered
from violent headache for two weeks,
and that afterward he saw everything
as if it were red The latter symptom
had continued for three months, after
which time he had lost all sensation of
color. In the beginning of May, 1890.
he presented himself again, declaring
that he had perfectly regained the
power to distinguish colors. A thorough
examination, says the New York
Ledger, completely confirmed the as
surance given by the patient. who was
consequently again fit for service. Lr.
Reich believes that ''erythropsy' is due
to central mischief. The case seems to
show that sensation of color is per-
fectly independent of the physiological

STONE FORESTS.
Petrifled Trees Still Standing In Various
Parts of the World.


Parts of the World.
Stone forests are found in various
parts of the world. In many cases they
are hardened by some peculiarly of the
atmosphere, and are found standing
just as they were when clothed with
green foliage, thousands of years ago.
The Little Colorado river in Arizona,
says the St. Louis Republic, has long
been famous as locality for such finds;
at one place more than one thousand
five hundred cords of solid stone tree
trunks, sections, limbs and logs were
found by the government surveyors.
Most of them were silicifed; many
seven to ten feet in diameter and from
twenty to eighty feet in height. Geolo-
gists say that the petrifed trees of the
Little Colorado were once covered with
mari over one thousand feet in depth.
Some of the trees have been changed to
Jasper, and have assumed various hues;
others resemble opal, and, when broken
open, the core is often found lined with
CRYSTALS of the most beautiful tints.
Louisiana and Ohio are also noted local
tiles for petrifed trees. In the former
state, several years ago, in turning up
the ground, an ancient forest was I'M
earthed, and, in succession, two others
below the first. Scientists, judging
from the state of the trees, say that at
least fifty thousand years elapsed be-
tween the growth of the first and the
last forest. In some parts of the island
Of Antigua, one of the British leeward
group, there are some remarkable ex-
amples of stone forests. In Van Die
mans Land similar forests are known
to exist. Some of these are only partly
silicifed, while others are changed to
chalcedony hard enough to cut glass.

"a good story is told Of one OF Omaha'a
society young ladies who recently re-

proudly exhibited to adniring friends,

The young lady's friends anxiously

AMERICAN GEOGRAPHY.
Instances Illustrative of the Ignorance OF
Foreigners Concerning 1t.

Instances Illustrative of the Ignorance OF
Foreigners Concerning It.
The confusion which foreigners make
of our geography is we'll illustrated by
German poem which appeared several
years ago, says the Youths Companion.
The poet, with utter unconcern about To-
cations and distances makes such ANUS
ing blunders that it's literary value is
entirely lost The argument is some
thing as follows:
Under palm tree On the shore Of
Lake Erie the hero is devoured by an
alligator. The heroine, hearing of his
fate, rushes from her home in the Ever
glades of Florida on the banks of Lake
Superior, captures the alligator, OK
tracts the hero's body and buries it with
magnificent pomp in Greenwood, in the
city OF New York in the state of St.
Louis.
Another German, who really wished
to know the geography of this country,
fell into the mistake SO common with
Europeans of not approaching the
rather large scale on which nature has
dealt with us in the matter of area Of
land and water.
Near Concord, Mass, is Walden pond,
the little body Of water near which
Thoreau lived alone in a hut for about
two years. His most famous book is
entitled walden" 1t purports to be
an account of his life in the hut, and
ranks with the masterpieces of Ameri-
can literature.
Not long ago German professor, EN-
gagged in studies of America, received
from Washington large map of the
continent Soon afterward, in writing
to an eminent American professor and
historian. the German scholar said he
had looked all over the map without
finding Walden pond This seemed to
him an amaZ ing omission.
