The difference between straight and
curly hair is very apparent on a micro
scopical examination. A hair is a hol-
low tube, and a straight hair is as sound
az a reed, while a curly hair is always
flattened on both sides and curls toward
one of the fiat sides, and never toward
the edge. 1t is a curious and little
known fact that the hair of women is
coarser than hat of men as well as
thicker OF the scalp. In an average
head of hair there are about 1870, 900 in
diyidual h!.s. The hair seems TO have
q life of It's own, independent of that of
the man, for numerous instances are
known of the hair continuing to grow
after death. In one of the st. Louis
cemeteries II body of a lady was some
years ago disinterred for the purpose of
removing it elsewhere. When the coffin
was opened the entire cavity wa filed
with u mass of auburn hair which had
grown after the iuterment had taken
place.-lnterview in st. Louis Globe

New YoRK, Jan. 5.-Ah Fong, a rep
resentative Chinese. and one of the
wealthiest of his race in this city, was
locked up in a cell in the Elizabeth Street
Police Station this evening to answer a
serious charge made by a child. Shortly
before noon a man named Schaun, living
at Ga Bayard street, complained to Capt.
Mccullough that his daughter Mary, who
is Is years old, had been assaulted by All
Fong. He said that on yesterday after
noon Mary mad gone ont making calls
with other girls. He did not see her
again until about Z o'clock this morning,
when she came home disheveled and pale,
and so weak that she could hardly stand.

other girls ran away, but Mary went in.

came 10 E,r senses this morning in All
Fong's room.
Capt. McCullagh and Detective Crystal
went around to Mr.. Schaun's house and
saw Mary, and her set out to find All
Fong. Fong is as little like a Chinaman
SIS any Chinaman can hope to become.
He speaks fairly good English, and while
he still clings to his cue, he conceals it be

American, with a Chatham street shape.
He Is a silent partner in a hlgh-toned
Chinese restaurant at 10 Pell street, and
1t is said he has an interest in a big Chi
nese store in Broadway. Nearly every
Chiuaman in New York knows him.
Detective Crystal found him in a back room
Of the Pell street restaurant and took him
around TO the station house. The pris-
oner refused to say auything. and was
locked up. An agent of the Gerry society

The Hohemtnm.

We often read of some person who
leads Bohemian life. What does it
mean? Quite history is suggested by
the word Bohemian. The first gypsies
who reached Paris 500 years ago or so
came from Bohemia. They wandered
around without settled residences, and in
time any man or woman who seemed to
have no regular way of living was called
a Bohemian. A Bohemian nowadays is
a person who doesn't do things the way
everyone else does them. For instance,
the man who eats many so cent table
d'hote dinners is considered a Bohemian /;
n woman who smokes a cigarette is
dreadfully Bohemian; all newspaper men
are Bohemians. because they never get to
bed until daylight. and take breakfast in
the afternoon. And, furthermore, no
Bohemian calls himself so, any more than
a newspaper man calls himself journal
ist.-New York Sun.

Gambling in Farm Products.
Nothing would SO quickly an

Nothing would so quickly and
thoroughly break up the gambling in
grain and working corners on
farm products as the proposed sub.
treasury plan, which is being fought
80 violently by the Wall street class
and their satellites. If the bulk of
the grain was held near the farms
where it is produced and kept out of
the great cities and out of the hands
of spectators, there would be no
chance for working up corners"
and betting on futures" No grain
gambler would dare sell grain any
more when he and all the country
knew he could not deliver it or con.
troll in any manner the price. IF an
attempt was made to sell gram at a
low price the gambler would know he
could not deliver the goods, that the
grain would remain in the warehouse
till a normal price ruled. Nor would
the boldest SPECTATOR attempt to
bull the market and raise the price
unduly. for then the grain would be
gin TO go on tue market and soon
break the fictitious price. A few
lessons of the kind would soon sat-
isfy the grain gamblers, and the pro.
duce would find its way to market as
consumers and shippers demands
required and uniform price
throughout the season would be
maintained with little fiucturatiou,
and the price be always controlled
by the quantity produced.

street Driving in Paria.


The noise of the streets in Paris would
cause an American to fancy himself at
home on the Fourth of July. Theaverage
Partisan is no more to be trusted with a
whip than he is with locomotive whis-
tie. From, dawn till dawn the cracking
OF cabmen's whips makes the air tremu-
lous with resonant agitation. Every
man who drives horse carries a long
whiplash, and cracks it incessantIy.
Crack, spat, spatter, spatter, crack, crack,
crack, go the whips in never ending
chorus around you wherever you walk,
and apparently in your apartment when
you try to sleep. If you want to imag-
inc what it sounds like, just fancy every
third or fifth man in New York going
about firing giant torpedoes all day and
night. These terrible infections. the
drivers, are quite picturesque. They
wear red waistcoats as rule, and inva-
riably sport tall hats of some shiny ma
terial that looks like patent leather. Their
hat bands are often of metal silvered or
gilded. They are a pestiferous lot, as noisy
with their mouths as with their whip
lashes, and though had no quarrel with
any l heard of or saw quarrels between
them and their fares on all sides. They
have no silly scruples against battle of
tongues with woman, and the Ameri-
can ladies in Paris were often quite ter
rorized by these noisy malcontents.
There are few, if any, hansoms in Paris,
the small open barouche being the IA
vored public conveyance. To see myr-
lad of these fitting about at night is
like looking at festival of lanterns. In
places Paris is brilliantly lighted by
masses of lights, always gaslights; but
in the open places, like parts of the
Champs Elysees, where the foliage filings
dense shadows, the lamps Of the cabs
produce beautiful effect. Buses are
plenty, but lest the driver should fail to
make the necessary amount of noise with
his whip and voice he is reinforced by
the use of a horn fixed beneath his foot
board, and worked by sort of bellows
process. An expert driver is therefore
able to make three sorts of noises at once.
In Paris the public vehicles are too few
and too slow. Paris is as far behind Lon
don in means of public conveyance as
London is behind New York.-Harper's
Weekly.

Warning to the Moderately Rich.
Moderately rich men of brains see
this inevitable tendency and justly
dread it. Intelligent patriots ought
to know. if they do not. that they
are short sighted fools in trying to
leave their children large Jumps of
money and then throw them on the
mercy of an oligarchy of financial
autocrats who every year decimate
the ranks Of the we'll conditioned
and comfortably circumstanced.
Gentlemen there is no security for
your children and grand children
except under equal laws that give
everybody an even show. We now
live in a time when few are per.
mitted to rob many by grace of legal
charters. There could be no $780,
600, 900 men like Gould, Vanderbilt
and Rockefeller were this not the
case, and the fact that these enor.
nous fortunes were piled up by single
men in few years proves conclu
sively that our present system for
the distribution of wealth is grossly
inequitable. and while it exists no
man can count his fortune as stable
and secure, and much less can lie
affirm with certainty as to that of his
children.-Te Acorn.

elaborate denial of the fact that

method to obtain a livelihood. The
Recorder, another New York paper,

out of employment and is devoting
itself to securing employment for the
unemployed of New York City. 1t
is probable that the Recorder over.
estimates the number OF persons

The Coming Climax /.

A most remarkable political bro
chure, and one which promises to
create decided sensation, is now in
press for early issue by Charles H.
Kerr & Co., of Chicago. The author,
Lester G. Hubbard, is editor of the
Farmers Voice, and stands in the
very front rank Of the leaders of the
Peoples party having been recently
chosen chairman of the central execu.
tive committee for Illinois. The
significance of the forthcoming pam
phlet, which will be entitled 1.-THE
Coming Climax" lies in the fact that
it gives frank and fearless summing
up of the elements of danger in the
present political and social conflict
between plutacrats and workers. It
is addressed to the people of cities,
and embodies a forcible, direct and
definite statement of the claims of
the new party on city people. This
brochure will be the first step ia the
organization of the Peoples party in
Chicago and other leading cities, and
it will doubtless be eagerly sought for.
1t will appear as the seventh number
OF Unity Library, and will retail at
fifty cents in paper and a dollar in
cloth.
