soiid Comfort at Last for bald Heads.
The siin grating physician of Read
ing, DR.. Eye, who has successfully DEM
onstrated by practical tests that it is
possible to turn black man white, has
made known his real object in conduct
ing these experiments. The doctor does
not think that there are any colored peo-
pie in the world who would be foolish
enough to submit to the skin grating
torture in order to be classed with the
white folks, but he does claim that thou
sands of bald headed people are willing
and anxious to wear a genuine head of
hair. This can be accomplished by the
skin grating process. DIR. Eye stoutly
asserts that a bald head can be covered
with scalp teeming with healthy hair.
He has several letters in his possession
from persons anxious to undergo the up-
Grafton.
The wonderful process opens up a
world of possibilities. The sensitive red
haired man could trade scalps with some
black headed person who is anxious to
get rid of = cowlick. Dame Fashion
might decree that polka dot was the
proper caper in hai:, and the new process
would be harbor for tie ultra fashion
able. Again, by utilizing the hide of a
blue Skye terrier tie Eodrth Of July ora
tor could make an impression upon his
hearers by wildly tearing out handfuls
of red, white and blue hair.-PEilsdel-

Ten years ago an old timer named
Tom Poole, who, with bis two children,
lived on farm between Pemberton
meadows and Lillooet lakes, was found
murdered. The bodies Of the children,
horribly mutilated, lay across the fathers
corpse in the cellar of the house, which
had been burned over their heads after
the horrible butcSsry. Suspicion rested
on neighbor named Graham, who was
last seen near the ranch. He was ar
rested and tried in New Westminster
for the crime, being afterward acquitted.
The provincial government offered a
reward for the capture Of the murderer,
and there the case dropped and public
interest gradually died out. Within the
past few months certain discoveries have
been made which go to show that Graham
was really innocent, and the real mur-
derer is an Indian chief named Nemiah,
who, two years ago, murdered China
man'on the Frazer river, and has since
been evading the authorities.
About two weeks ago Nemiah quar-
relied with another Indian in his band,
and the hands of the chief were almost
stained with the blood of his third vic
tim. Other Indians present seized and
bound him, and Immediately sent mes
sage to B. Franklin, justice of the peace
at Tatlae Lake, that they had got Ne
miah and wanted the authorities to come
up and take him. On receipt of this in
formation Franklin, accompanied by a
posse Of special constables, left immedi-
ately, only to find on arriving at their
destination that their bird had flown.
Nemiah's squaw had cut the ropes that
bound him while the others were asleep.
Making good use of his liberty Nemiah
took to the "stick," where he is supposed
to be at present. The party found that
the Indian Guishou, with whom Nemiah
had the quarrel, was not dangerously in
I jured. All the other Indians are willing
to assist in the capture of Nemiah, or ap,
pear to be.-Vancouver B. c. Cor. Ta-

Found 81, 700 in an Old Violin.

Casper Clement, charcoal burner in
Bergen county, N. j., found $1,7O0 in
greenbacks in an old violin which he
bought recently in Philadelphia. Glenn
ent has taste for music, but was too
poor to buy violin. Chance took him
to Philadelphia, and while there he
stumbled upon pawnbroker's sale. The
old violin was put up. Clement bought
it for eighty cents.
He took the violin home, thinking he
had big prize, but, to his intense dis
gust, he couldn't get any good out of it,
and was about to smash the instrument
when he thought better of it and con-
cluded to take it apart. He found a roll
of greenbacks inside in good enough
condition to spend. He was elated with
his good fortune, but had the good sense
to put the violin together. Then he
found that he owned really very fine
instrument as we'll as a small fortune.
Clement is now seeking for an invest
ment for his money and is going to give
up the charcoal burning business

a Natural tlistory lesson for Cent.


There is new member Of the now
numerous slot machine family. 1t is q
"drop- a-cent-in -the-slot-look through
the-microscope- anI-see-the wonders-of-
nature" contrivauce, and is really a very
clever idea. Few Of them have as yet
appeared. The machine stands on an
iron pedestal. It is square, and from
the top of it sticks up nickel tube in
which is placed very good microscope.
A small lamp, like those in use on cigar
counters, stands just at the back of the
machine, throwing ray of light into
its dark interior.
When the penny is dropped into the
slot it removes slide from the lens OF
the microscope and sets revolving dial
inside the machine on which are placed
seven of the so called "wonders of nat
ure." AS the dial revolves these pass
under the microscope. The wonders
in each machine are changed once a
week In the machine seen by the
writer were human hair, a section of a
hard corn taken from somebody's foot, q
flea, croton water bug, bedbug, @
strand of raw silk, and the wing of fly.

A local expert proposes to make mush-
room hunting speciality this summer,
and he is certain that if there is any Sec
ton of Maine where there are lovers Of
this fungus it is right here in Lewiston
and Auburn. On his finger he can count
scores of men (has to use his fingers twice
over and more, too, you see) who are fond
of them and know how to cook them.
At one certain country house in Lewis
ton the Sunday mushroom dinner is a
fixed thing in summer, and my! aren't
they delicious! The old rule for distin-
gushing them from toadstools-viz., eat
them, and if you die they are toadstools
is not now operative.
It's poor mushroom gatherer who
does not know the difference. The top of
the young mushroom is white, the under
portion loose and lighter. AS it natures
the top changes to brown color and the
under part to dark red. The stem,
which is white and round when young,
also grows dark with age. Eatable
mushrooms have pleasant odor and are
never Shiny. A test proposed is to sprin-
kle salt on the under side or spongy part
and give it time to act. If it turns black
the mushroom is good if yellow, the
toadstool is poisonous Jour.

She Got a Seat,

It was about II o'clock, on the elevated
road-and elsewhere.
At Twenty third street two pretty young
women in good clothes came aboard.
The morning rush was past, but still the
car was full of comfortable business men
studiously devoted to their newspapers.
Not seat was vacant, and not one was
offered. One of the young women hitched
herself to strap with an air of familiarity
with the process; the other looked on and
at the men with an expression of intellec-
tual curiosity, not unmixed with seorn.
"You'll see Wall street running right up
against old Trinity" said she of the strap;
as if continuing previous conversation,
'then want to take you through one Of
the big Office buildings, but we'll have to
wait till papa'-
"Will we have to stand all the way down
theahP" asked her friend and evident guest
irrelevantly, in soft, clear tones and uh-
mistakable southern accents.
"No; not all the way" replied the New
York girl, and then, chaperoning her sex
instead of her section, she added soto voce,
''some of these brutes will have to get out
before Rector street-they'll have to give
us seat whether they want to or not"
"No, 1 don't think they will" said the
southerner in the same soft, audible tone,
and casting meditative look about her;
II think by their looks they'll stay aboard
and lose money to keep us out of one."
Agentleman sitting on one of the cross
seats with his back to them now rose with
an amused expression, saying:
'No, no; we're not so bad as that" and
surrendered his seat, whereupon his visa
Wis succumbed ruefully to moral suasion
and gave up his. When the girls, with
smiling thanks, were seated, the southern
er winked merrily at her friend and said:

Woodpecker's Justice.

A year ago pair of red headed wood
peckers determined to peck hole in the
boarding under the caves of a house, as
woo&peckers often do. The owner of the
house, not liking such mutilation, after
repeated efforts succeeded in driving
them away, and they went to work at
once and dug hole in the nearest tree.
When the birds home was finished and
housekeeping had begun the farmers
boys captured the female as she sat in the
nest and kept her in cage, hoping to
catch the male also.
Two days later he returned with an
other wife. The boys relented at the
sight. They gave Mrs. Woodpecker No.
/ her liberty and awaited results.
To their surprise the male woodpecker,
after relentless pursuit of about six
hours, killed her. Then he destroyed the
one egg which she had laid, and contin-
ued housekeeping with wife No. as
if nothing had happened.-Cor. Youths

Beating Street Car Railways.

1t is hard to get ahead of the street Car
companies, but some people in Chicago
think they are going to do it. They are
having constructed vehicles exactly like
street cars, except that the wheels are
little larger They are gauged to fit the
car tracks, and it is proposed to run them
on the tracks just like any horse car, with
out asking with your leave or by your
leave. They will stop like the street
cars and chdrge the same fare. If the
car companies object, owners of the new
vehicles will point to the fact that they
are simply omnibuses, which are en-
titled to use any portion of the public
streets, whether tracks happen to be
there or not. If the car companies don't
like their tracks to be used they are at
liberty to take them away.-Exchange.

Hands That Statesmen Write.

Among Lord GranvilIe's other amiable
possessions was that of very neat and
scholarly handwriting. Perhaps this is
one reason for his popularity with press
men. On the whole, however, states
men certainly do not write worse than
''writers." Mr.. Gladstone's hand is in
deed spoiled by over indulgence in post
cards. Mr.. Balfour's hand is not pretty,
and Mr.. Goschen's is execrable. Mr..
John Morley's hand has character, but is
not always easy to read. Lord Salisbury
writes clearly. So do Lord Rosebery
and Lord Harrington. But it may be
doubted whether any of those we have
mentioned write at once so prettily and
so legibly as did Lord Granville. Pail
