ANOTHER RUSSIAN PLOT.

Russia Negotiating with Ex-King Milan of
Servia for Certain Alleged Rights for
Monetary Consideration.
VIENNA, Oct. 20.-The Austrian min
lister at Belgrade, Baron Theemel, has
made formal request for information
from the regency as to the reported
mortgaging by ex-King Milan to a
Russian bank of certaian alleged
rights in Servia for the sum of
100000 roubles advanced by the
bank AS Milan is not known to
have any individual property in
Servia, a suspicion prevails in Vienna
that the Russian government has
paid Milan two millions in order to vest
in Russia some political claim upon the
country. AS King Alexander is not
likely to be married for some years and
as Milan is his sons heir, and also re-
tains certain rights under the act of
abdication, it is clear that Russia has
not paid the money for nothing at a
time when she has no money to
spare for useless purposes.

an ANIMATED SKULL.
Uncanny Experience of a Young Medic


Uncanny Experience of Young Medical
Student.
Medical students sometimes have
queer experiences. A physician tells
the following story, says the New York
Advertiser:
cat one time when / was a medical
student my class had been for several
days studying the bones OF the head.
To aid in this number of human
skulls had been brought into the lee
ture room. After we were through
with them they were thrown in a
heap into one corner. One night l
chanced to be left alone in the room:
Finding it quiet and pleasant in the
half light, / sat down to smoke a cigar.
Immediately facing me was the pile of
skulls. They presented very uncanny
appearance as the light from Q dim gas
burner played over them, making them
seem almost alive, with o certain play
of expression.
''One particularly big fellow, lying
on top of the pile, appeared actually to
wink at me from its eyeless eye~sock-
cts, while the teeth in the gaping
mouth grinned horribly. Amused, l
winked back and offered my cigar,
when suddenly there was n slight noise
and the skull inclined slightly forward
as if bowling acceptance. There was
no mistake about it. 1t actually moved,
not only once, but twice. l dropped my
cigar and sat up straight in my chair,
my eyes fixed ON the grewsome thing.
There was another louder noise and a
stronger movement of the skull. when
down it came crashing to the floor, and
bounded to my very feet.
''In an instant l was on the table
near by, gazing upon the strange thing
and ready for precipitate fight. Then
the skull gave n violent shake and
turned over, and out jumped q big rat,
which scampered across the floor and
into hiding. If the cause of that skulls
movements had not been revealed l
think my medical studies would have
stopped then and there"

LORD randolph Churchhllls Lion Stories
Creating Diversion in English Society.
LONDON, Oct. 2O.-Lord Randolph
ChurchilPs lion story in the Graphic is
giving the public needed diversion in
this season of mourning for the loss
of distinguished men. Some of the pa
pers are cruel enough to speak of his
lordship's story of adventures with the
lions as idiotic, and one writer goes SO
far as to suggest that it Churchill
bearded the monarch of the African
wilds, the lion he met must have been
stuffed. Then cruel comparisons are
drawn between Churchill and Gordon
Cumming, the lion hunter, and alto
gether his lordship is likely to have a
bad quarter of an hour when he
glances over the mail that will bring
him yesterdays papers.
In addition to the merciless chatting
in the press, the lighter theaters have
seized upon Randy and his Lions as
subject for the amusement of the
profane. A singer named Roberts, in
the Gaiety, has composed a new and
blood-curdling verse in addition to her
usual topical song, and the roars that
greet the allusion to the valiant hunter

Suicide of an Aged LADY.

CORTLAND, N. Y, Oct. 20.-Mrs Sam
uel Williams, the wife of prominent
farmer at Willets, disappeared Sunday.
A search was made and resulted in the
finding of her body yesterday in an ice
house. Her throat was cut from ear to
ear. A razor was found by her side
which she had taken from her home.
Mrs. Williams was rs years of age.
The cause of her rash act was probably
dependency. She was i'll and almost
helpless and imagined she was in the
way of her family and friends.

That was all. But think of the laugh

Think of the smiles he has brought to-

A JOB LOT OF RELICS.

The esource and versatility of the
American mind is proverbial The way
in which it makes time and circumstance
shape itself to suit a present purpose has
been, since we were a nation, the admit
| ration of less ingenious neighbors across
the pond, to whom the word Yankee is a
synonym for everything requiring tact
and temerity-the happy faculty of being
equal to any and every emergency.
This reputation is sustained and en-
phasized by the remarkable readiness
with which anything for which there
arises a demand is supplied by this fer
tile of expedients and inventive people.
A few years ago when the craze for old
furniture and old china struck the coun.
try factories for the exclusive manufac-
tnre of these articles sprung up all over
and got in some clever work. Bcdsteads
without number upon which had lain
the heads of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES which
had supported kings and crowns were
turned out by the hundred "patent an
tique" aud passed off on the light
Drained and purse heavy relic hunter as
the genuine article and at fabulous
prices.
And he-the relic hunter-was salts
fed; satisfied because he believed he had
secured a real treasure and could exhibit
it to his friends as "a trif1e picked up"
during his last trip abroad and forming
only one of a rare collection.
Enterprising descendants of the happy
genius who first hit upon the idea of
manufacturing nutmegs out Of wood and
paint have sold to devout Catholics mil
lions of crosses and crucifxes from one
cedar which they claim& to have been
grown in the sacred soil Of Mt. Lebanon.
And the Christians believe and hug
the relics closer.
And now that the worlds fair ap-
proaches and the management is short
on COLUMBUS relics, the number and
variety of these souvenirs which the oc-
casion has suddenly brought to light is
surprising. After settling the vexed
question as to, the exact spot upon the
hero first set foot in the new world,
they have actually discovered OF the top
of an old we'll somewhere in Hayti, it
having been found on the coast and ap-
%propriated by the natives to domestic
purposes, tle identical anchor used by
the celebrated discoverer on his first
landing on American soil. This anchor,
with a history complete in all it's de-
tails, will be among the leading curios
at the Chicago exposition.

An aiIegeQ IdTmeTS gathering
eigh on Friday last gave SENATOR THos.
M. NORWOOD, a lawyer, a chance to
| shoot off his mouth. Tn his painful and
tedious harangue, the assembling sena-
tor had the country in his arms.
1t was crying. He was nursing it. He
saw that Wall street was about to play
sad havoc. He saw everything that Polk
and SIMPSON and all the other frauds
claim that they see. He sweat blood. and
he shed crocodile tears for the dear
farmers in North Carolina and in the
South, and yet this blatant blatherskite
confessed that he was a lawyer. Among
other things he said:
The New England States have thirteen
times as much wealth as the Southern
States. They have a circulation ten
times as great as the Southern States.
How does this blood sweater compute
the wealth of the New England States,
and what Ices he know about the wealth
of the Southern States?
Is it not true that thousands of farms
are being abandoned in the New En-
gland states because they have been ex-
hausted?
Is it not true that careful calculations
prove that the south is richer in miner
ais, in ores, and in woods of all kinds
than any other section of this hemis-
phere?
Is it not true that the south in it's cot
ton and in its tobacco produces annually
more wealth than any other agricultural
section on the earth's surface?
What does lawyer Norwood know
about farming anyway?
The people in the New England states
have been satisfied to toll and delve and
dig and have brought out of beggared
ground all that it possibly could pro-
duce?
and LIVINGSTON and MCCUNE and a
score of others have worked their
mouths instead of the pillow and shown
to idle farmers at the south what the in
dustrious toilers at the north were doing
and attempted to make a comparison.
Honest figures, no matter how highly
embellished for the New England States
can never approach the magnificent nu-
neral of what the South is capable Of
doing.
Scape goats, scalawags and scoundrels
of the POLK order go about and cause
honest farmers to neglect their work in
order that they may harangue them,
when, in truth, if the same labor were
expended to induce men to come to our
country and assist in developing it, the
South could show fifty times the wealth
Of the New England States.
The trouble is, the South is imposed
upon. 1t is chloroformed and ravished
by these mouthy blocd-sweaters, who
are bleeding the farmers and who have
no common sympathy with the agricul-
turists of this section.
But even after all the fool farmer who
allows the NoRwooDs and PoLKs to be-
guile and deceive him should be sold out
by the sheriff as he finally will be.
Until LAWYER NORWOOD shows a chart
of his farm and how much farming he
has done he should be tarred and feath-
cred when he predicts revolutions and
makes use of other anarchial utterances.

hardened criminals. There can be no
question but that our city prisons are
manufacturing criminals more rapidly
than they are reforming them.
