Some Points From Szwirschina, the Great
est Man in His Line.
Detroit News.l
Prof. H. Szwirschina, of Detroit, is the
most extensive costumer of America. He
says: "I rented out 30 Santa Claus suits on
Christmas Eve last TOR Sunday school enter
tainments. The two best days in the year in
our business are Mardi Gras Tuesday and
the Monday preceding. have about 5000
costumes in use at New Orleans. Our best
customers. however, are the amateur min
strel companies. They do not care for e1-
pensr and take the best we have. We fur
nished ]. 900 costumes for the Fall OF Baby
lon, recently produced in Cincinnati, and
made them up on snort notice, too, keeping
80 of our girls working night and day on
them. But more expeditions piece of
work was for the Shakesperean pantomimes,
for which we made $50 complete new cos
TUNES in ten days, the material used being
heavy, clumsy and hard to handle. We
are now making 250 costumes for the Robin
son circus, some of them being very expen-
siye, the goods alone costing Sc so per yard"
"What costumes bring the highest rent
als?"
"Historical. They are the most expensive
to make and we charge from So to SO each
per night for them. For ladies' costumes
we charge even more. Then we charge
users for all damage and never let beard
of wig 60 without first demanding full Sc
curity, as customers are not so apt to take as
good care of these things as of the costume.
We used to import all our wigs and boards
from Germany, but now there is factory
at Findlay, o., which turns out even better
goods at much less cost 1t is generally
supposed that because most of the masks
used in America are made in Germany that
Germans are the greatest users, but such is
really not the case. The Americans are the
greatest mask users on the globe, and they
usually reut the most expensive ones, while
the Germans content themselves with the
cheapest they can get.
"And now will tell you something which
may appear strange. but it shows the popu-
lar appreciation of two we'll known histori.
cal personages, Queen Elizabeth and Mary
Queen of Scots. 1t is a TACT that we rent
more than double the number of the latter
costumes than the former, which consider
beautiful tribute paid by American society
ladies to the unfortunate Princess"

had referred must have been q very small
one. This Identification lett no doubt in
the mind of anybody but the tramp, who
began to wonder whether he might not be
guilty after all. However, to make assur-
ance doubly sure. the servant, Lagos, was
sent for by the police in the course Of the
afternoon.
He was loaded for an identification. He
had heard Mr.. FluKes at lunch time describe
to Mrs. Flukes the formidable and desperate
appearance OF the man with whom he had
struggled in the dead OF night in defense of
their home. The villainous physiognomy
pictured by Mr.. Flukes made such a deep
impression on the mind of Lagos that when
he arrived at the station he promptly identi.
fed Ward Detective "Plug" Swagly as the
criminal. The alleged feelings of Mr..
Swagly were so much hurt by this mistake
that he offered to prove that Laggs had COM
mitted burglary, highway robbery or treason
in March, 1884, or on any other date that
was convenient to the authorities
Frightened Lagos Into Disappearance.
All that Mr.. Swagly asked was an hour
and half to collect his witnesses. This
liberal offer was refused, but it frightened
Lagos SO badly that he couldn't be found on
the day when the tramp came up for pre-
liminary examination. I am inclined to
think that his alarm was unnecessary. and
that the ward detective had over-estimated
his powers, because week later, when
Lagos was clubbed half to death in an alley
near the Flukes residence, Swagly was

tered your house on the night of November
8, last past, and stole peck of potatoes in
each hand ?"
1t is nearly impossible, to find subject
which New York police justice does not
thoroughly understand, if you give him
leisure to tell you what he meant to say
when he spoke the first time.
Mrs. FIukes was willing to swear to the
prisoner or at him, as. it pleased the Court.
Every time she discovered peculiarity Of
his features or clothing which she hadn't
previously noticed she recognized him by
that. Then the policeman on the beat was
called, and he told what he had been dream
ing about at 2 o'clock on the morning in
question. Swagly, who made the arrest.
also gave testimony which was very damag-
ing-in fact there is no telling how damag-
ing, not to say damning, such testimony
may be when the records, which do not lie,
are unrolled in a higher court, and Swagly
ct al are committed without bail.
The Tramp Caught 1t Hard.
In the case at hand. however, the damage
was inflicted upon the tramp, and he was
held in the sum of $1,000 None of his
friends came forward to give this bail,
partly because he had no friends, and
further, because if he had had any, they
would not probably, have had SO much
money as that. He went to Jail
1 am happy to say, however, that before
the trial Mrs. Flukes discovered that there
had been only half bushel of potatoes in
the cellar on the night of November 8, and
consequently the tramp could not have
stolen peck in each hand, and left two
pecks behind him. On learning of this
fact, Mr.. Flukes, who was a scrupulously
just man, secured the release of the tramp
through the influence of a ward politician,
and he also gave the unfortunate man his
forgiveness and the unused portion of
meal ticket emitting the holder to three o.
cent dinners at restaurant which had
failed and closed up during the previous
week.
The foregoing isn't the story intended to
tell when 1 began, but once get me started
on the subject OF personal Identification,
and never know when to stop. could tell
half dozen more stories without getting
anywhere near the one had in mind at
first. They would all go to show that>when
lot of people stand up in court, and tell
how they recognize a man whom they never
saw but once in their lives, and then when
he was back to them, and half mile away
when they swear that they know him be-
cause he has lost back tooth, and has
scar on the sole of his foot-they are simply
living, in way to make their moral char
acters as unclean as the cover o! the police
court Bible, on which they take the oath.
However, let that pass. started to tell
how I was pursued by a mysterious negro,
said to be seven feet high, but perhaps can
do it some other time.

sweep away even her pride In It's lrreslstlple
course.
She grew calmer when she found herself
alone, but in q manner she grew also more
desperate. A resolution began to form ieelf
In her mind which she would have despised
and driven out of her thoughts few hours
earlier; q resolution destined to lead to
strange results. She began to think of re-
sorting once more to a means other than
natural in order to influence the man she
loved.
In the first moments she had felt sure of
herself, and the certainty that the Wanderer
had forgotten Beatrice as completely as
though she had never existed, had seemed
to Unorna complete triumph. With lit
tie or no common vanity, she had neverthe-
less felt sure that the man must love her for
her own sake. She knew, when she
thought of it, that she was beautiful, unlike
other women, and born to charm all living
things She compared in her mind the
powers she controlled at will, and the lnfiu-
ence she exercised without effort over every
one who came near her. 1t had always
seemed to her enough to wish in order to
see the realization of her wishes. But she
had herself never understood how closely
the wish was allied with the despotic power
OF suggestion which she possessed. But In
her love she had put a watch over her mys-
terious strength, and had controlled it, say
ing that she would be loved Tor herself or
not At all. She had been jealous of every
glance, lest it should produce result not
natural She had waited to be won, instead
Of trying to win. She had failed, and pas
sion could be restrained no longer.
"What does it matter how, if only he is
miDer' she exclaimed fercely, as she rose
from her carved chair an hour after he had
left her,

one can never tell what are flowers and what
are weeds when they come up.
Many of the seeds are very sensitive about
terminating and the very fines. md best
mixed soil should be given TO them. The
best preparation Of the soil for all delicate
flower seeds is to make successive layers of
coarse and fine soil and sand. Take a deep
pot or boz, and fill it three inches up with
broken crockery, or very coarse sand; then
add two or three inches of coarse soil, max
ing it finer gradually as you get mp toward
the top. The two inches Of top soil should
be as fine as it can be made; in fact, it
should be sifted through -four sieve. The
finest flower seeds in such soil will often
germinate if they are simply sown on top
without being covered. Tne seeds, as all
know, require constant moisture during the
terminating period, and such pot filled
with soil in layers can be kept moist by set
ting it in basin of warm water. Let the
wafer come up to the top of the layer OF
broken crockery, and then the moisture will
gradually be absorbed by the coarse soil.
If the top is covered with a pane of glass
the moisture will soon collect on it, and re-
tain it for some time. This is the ideal way
OF raising flowers from seeds indoors.
