AMMONIA AND SUICIDES.

One of the Most Certain Agents for
Causing Death by Slow Poisoning.
OF the number of those seeking sui
eide by swallowing some firm of poison.
probably there are few who have sought
to kill themselves by means of ammonia.
! Nevertheless ammonia, although it is the
active agent in most of the salts sold to
women for their gilt decorated and per-
Tuned scent bottles, is poisonous when
taken internally in concentrated form.
To attest this there have been recently
in New York several cases, the most re-
cent being that of Herman Harowi t, 1
which Deputy Coroner Jenkins said that
death took place in a comparatively
short time after the ammonia was taken.
In another case, that of a child, Dr. Jen-
kins said death resulted in five minutes
after swallowing the ammonia solution
There are on record also cases of slow
poisoning from ammonia administered
with intent to commit murder. Further
more, the appearance of workmen in
guano factories, where ammonia is set free
by grinding guano, has been noted, and
In every case there is an unmistakable
system OF poisoning. This is discolora-
ton of the skin of the face, which as
sumes a blotched, dirty appearance.
First to take on this appearance is the
skin of the nose and forehead. Autop-
sizes OF those who lie from ammonia poi
soning reveal dark hue on the mucous
membrane lining the stomach and intes-
tines.
AS an agent for causing death by slow
poisoning, ammonia is one of the most
certain and most difficult of detection.
owing to its volatile nature. This quail
lty has led physicians to believe that
some OF the mysterious deaths that have
taken place in the history of modern ard
medieval crime are due to ammonia. 1t
ls known now that months have elapsed
between the first symptoms of sickness
and the death of person from ammonia
poisoning. On the other hand, death
has resulted in four minutes from the
time large draught OF ammonia has
been swallowed. 1t has been found in
cases OF gradual absorption of ammonia
in the human system that there is gem
eral elimination of healthy oxidation of
the blood and aconsequent lowering of
the bodily strength. In the cases of inn
mediate poisoning, death comes with
frlghtful agony, as in the case of Haro-
WITT. Blood gushed from his nose and
mouth.
Statistics in England put ammonia
thirteenth in frequency in the list of
poisons. Alexander Winter Blyth, med
ical officer Of health in the st. Maryle-
bone district, London, cites thirty cases
of poisoning by ammonia swallowed for
the purpose of committing suicide, or
administered with the purpose of com
hitting murder, or absorbed unconscious
~ IN food Of the suicidal cases six were
fatal. Of twenty accidental cases twelve
were fatal. Of cases of murder with
ammonia, DIR. Blyth notes two, both of
them children.-New York Sun.

Death Comes at odd Times.

There was a pathetic ending to a
presentation in Broadway Office one
day. The friends of popular railroad
agent assembled to bid him goodby, he
having been transferred by his com
pany to another city They gave him
a costly diamond ring in token of their
lasting regard The recipient of the
gift, who is genial and generous man,
put on his hat and said, Boys, want
you all to take luncheon with me, and
we VIII have something that sparkles
besides diamonds"
Just as the party was leaving the
Office telegram was handed to the
genial wearer of the ring. He opened
1t laughingly. but startled and sad
dened expression came over his face as
he read its contents Handing it TO
one Of his friends. he murmured husk-
lily, 'You do the honors for me, old
fellow, and hastily retired into his
private Office. The telegram announced
the death of his mother

wanted-A New work on Botany.

1t is very difficult for persons who
have had no special training to learn
the names of the flowers from the bot
any. The botany is a sealed book to
them. The descriptions of the flowers
are in a language which they do not
understand at all, and the key is no
help to them. 1t is as much puzzle as
the botany itself They need key to
unlock the key.
One of these days some one will give
us handbook of our wild flowers, by
the aid of which we shall all be able to
name those we gather in our walks
without the trouble of Analysing them.
In this book we shall have list of all
our flowers arranged according to color,
as white flowers, blue flowers, yellow
flowers, pink flowers, etc, with place
of growth and time of blooming.
Also lists or sub-lists of fragrant
flowers, climbing flowers, marsh flowers,
meadow flowers, wood flowers, etc, so
that, with flower in hand, by running
over these lists we shall be pretty sure
to find its name. Having got it's name
we can turn to Gray or Wood and find
a more technical description of it if we
choose, Indeed, have heard that a
work with some such features has actu-
ally been undertaken by a lover of birds
and flowers

Even II the authors copyright had

rupt our people and draw them away
from that simple ideal of life and free
dom which is the very soul of our

! am here referring not solely or
chiefly to reproductions of those un-
clean works with which France favors
us, or of that vapid. sentimental
Damen-Iiteratur in which Germany
abounds but rather, and especially, to
those innumerable reprints of English
works of unexceptional conventional
morality with which the whole country
is deluged.
Against French immortality we are,
in some degree. protected by our native
puritanism, and where that fails by
conventional hypocrisy; while German
sentimentality, lacking, as it usually
does, the salt of humor, strikes us as
insipid, and therefore lays but slight
hold upon us. In English works, on
the other hand, there is something far
more germane to our character, a subtle
atavistic poison, which puts to sleep the
new man. the free American, in us, and
wakes the slumbering servile or over
bearing Englishnan.
Still more frequently it wakes the
slumbering English woman. However
useful such.literature may be in Eng
land, which is dominated by the spirit
of caste, rendering necessary the cult
walton of servility in one class to match
the arrogance of another, it is distinct
ly hurtful in America, where there is
no recognized caste, and where nothing
is more essential to public and private
well being than the spirit of manly and
womanly self respect, and of contempt
for all Fictitious worth conferred by
birth, position, title or wealth. Pro

| shall always remember one of the
keenest emotions of my youth. had
been obliged, owing to my duties at the
time, to Danish myself to the provinces,

the asphalt of the boulevard and the
macadam of its roadway
1t was evening; the gas jets for
electricity was yet unknown spangled
the darkness with yellow lights; the
shops, all opened, shone brilliantly (;
the crowd was strolling up and down
the wide sidewalks. 1t was not one of
those eager, breathless crowds that
seem carried away in vortex of bust
ness, such as one sees in London; it
was composed of loungers who seemed
to be walking about for their pleasure,
who were cheering to the sight, and
diffused, as it were, feeling of happi-
ness in the air.
From time to time the omnibus passed
before a theater, where long lines of
people were already waiting for the
opening of the box office; everybody
was enjoying himself and laughing.
As we descended toward the Bastile

the groups less compact, but there still

A Pas. rhss Has Done Service.

Twenty-six years ago, when connected
with the Clarendon hotel, at Saratoga
Springs. N. T., J. 9. Chamberlain, the
present cashier of the Leland hotel, was
given pass on the National Express
company by its general superintendent,
T. H. Virgil Mr. Chamberlain was then
a bright young man and had done many
acts of kindness for the superintendent
In gratitude to the young hotel clerk
Virgil presented him with the pass,
which gave him the right to send any
package free of charge through the com
pany
4 few weeks ago the National Express
company was amalgamated with the
Northern Pacific Express company, and
the new arrangement came into effect
few days ago. Mr.. Chamberlain had
used his pass whenever he had occasion,
but he was little in doubt as to whether
it would be Of any good under the new
management.
However, as soon as the Office in the
Rookery building was open Mr.. Cham
berlain walked in with package direct
ed TO q. r. Durkee, of Saratoga Springs
The clerk weighed the package with par
ticular care, as this was the first one
handled by the new company. Then
when he asked for pay the pass was pro-
duced General superintendent HUT
was called in on the question of the
validity Of the Anticipated pass, but he
knew that the document had never been
rescinded and the package was sent
along The pass was on fimsy paper,
but the cashier mounted it on piece of
stiff pasteboard and preserved it care
fully, Now he is wondering whether he
can will away the pass when lie requires
it no longer. Chicago Herald.

We Are All Travelling.

Have you ever thought of the dis
lance you travel while you were out on
an hours stroll9 Possibly you walk
three miles within the hour, but that
does not by any means represent the
distance you travel The earth turns
upon its axis every twenty four hours.
For the sake of round figures we will
call the earths circumference "a, 900
miles, and so you must have travelled
during your hours stroll 1000 miles in
the axial turn of the earth.
But that is not all. The earth makes
a journey around the sun every year.
and long but rapid trip it is The dis
lance of our planet from the sun we will
put at 92,000,0O0 miles. That is the
radius Of the earth's orbit-haIf the
diameter of the circle, as we will call it,
The whole diameter is therefore 1884,
600, 600 miles, and the circumference
being the diameter multiplied by 81, 416,
is about 578. 600, 600
This amazing distance the earth
travels in its yearly journey, and divid-
ing it by 365 we find the daily speed
about 1856, 600 Then to get the dis
lance you rode around the earth dur
ing your hours walk divide again by
twenty four, and the result is about &C.
600 miles, but even this is not the end of
your hours trip The sun, with his en-
tire brood of planets, is moving in space
at the rate Of 100, 900, 600 miles in a
year. This is at the rate of little
more than ABS. 600 miles a day, or is, $50
miles an hour
So, adding your three miles of leg
travel to the hours axial movement of
the earth this to the earth's orbitaI
journey and that again to the earth's
excursion with the sun, and you find
you have travelled in the hour IS, 253

consciousness it was found that his body
was full of electricity He is now able
to sit up, but his body is so highly charged
with electric fluid that when he puts his
hands within certain distance of each
other sparks will jump from one to the
other with loud, cracking noise, and
when the hands touch they can be sep
arated only by the most violent rubbing.
His feet are in the same condition, and

netizes it completely. Many people visit
him to witness the curious manifestation

Potatoes Growing on Grape Vine.

The owner of garden in Greenman-
vile had occasion recently to prune a
grapevine. In his ignorance he failed to
consult 'Daboll's yearly clam tide regu-
lator,' and mutilated the vine in the
wrong season, with the result that the
fluid extract of grape began to run and
there was danger of the vine bleeding to
death, when a happy thought went
through his brain. Securing some large
seed potatoes, he dissected them and ap-
piled the pieces to the cuts. They stuck
together like twin brothers and the vine
and potatoes fourished, gathering life
from each other, till now they form a
conglomeration Of grape and potato vine
that is attracting the attention Of farm
ers and agriculturists for miles around.
