tered specimens who sell ginger ale to tour

to Staffa and Iona, which is one OF the COM
monest undertaken by Americans in their
European wanderings, takes one through
the heart of the island region, and scarcely
human habitation does il reveal, except
at the little fishing villages at one or two
tourist resorts. Iona island, the burial
place of Scotch kings, and the seat and
source of the Highlanders' Christian faith,
is inhabited by few half starved wretches
who sell strings of shells and photographs
to the tourists. The south coast OF Null is
as lonely as Anticosti.

1SIDoR FRAUENTHAL-ERNEsT SALINGER.
Frauenthal dead and Salinger dying of pis-
tol shots. But of their life very much is
known, for they belonged to wealthy and
influential Hebrew families. Frauenthal
at his Philadelphia home was considered
prodigy of youthful learning, and Salinger
left voluminous diary of his life. Yet
after they became roommates Frauenthal
seemed to lose all his capacity. neglected
his studies and fell so far behind that the
college authorities had him under disci-
pline.
One theory is that Salinger hypnotized
Frauenthal, as he was given to experiments.
Another is that he unconsciously influ-
enced his roommate, and their intimacy
caused the latter to acquire the dyspepsia,
by which the former was termented.
Both men were terribly emaciated-"as if
they had starved to DEATH" said the physi-
clans. Yet both had means to live well.
The coroner thinks that Salinger killed
Frauenthal and then shot himself But
why? The mystery will probably remain a
mystery in this world.

But the remarkable part of the proceedings
was to be witnessed in the court room at
the time of the trial. Mr.. and Mrs Oliver,
the parents of the defendant, took sides
with their son-in-law and refused to recog-
nize their daughter, while she had for her
best friend and companion the sister of the
man who was charged with being her part
ner in guilt.
The first thing that went to pieces was
the cross bill, the counsel for the defense
acknowledging that certain charge af-
fecting the character of young lady had
no foundation. Then the testimony piled
up against Mrs. Bloomfield and Mr.. Tur-
ner. Janitors, French maid, boarding
house keepers, hotel proprietors and hack
men took turns at identifying them as
Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver" and also as Mr..
Turner and ''Mr. Clahin," Cladin being
the name assumed by Mrs. Bloomfield
when she travelled about in male attire.
The defendants father, sister and broth

her, and at the end it took the jury just

Perhaps ali this does not impress an Eng
lishman quite as strongly as Yankee.
Americans can hardly be expected to real
ize what it is like to live in country where
one in every thirty-five of the inhabitants
is pauper This must be why William
Black, the novelist, who has, in sense, re-
discovered the Highlands, and whose novels
are scarcely more than guide books with
thin thread of romance running through
them, has so much to say of the beauty of
the scenery, SC little of the ruined homes
and squalid novels which serve as apologies
for homes. Blacks novels have unques-
tionably been worth good deal 10 the High
landers by turning thither such food of
tourists, but the Pencils, whose written
and picturesque description of the country
year or 80 ago caused such storm OF dis
cussion in England, saw more clearly the
unutterable sadness which one must expect
along with the beauty OF the landscapes in
the Highlands The loneliness there is all
very well as picturesque value" in the
idle gaze of a tourist, and may be pleasant
enough, seen from the luxurious cabin OF
yacht, but the crumbling walls and sagging
roof poles of the ruined huts and the
pathetic misery of the few remaining ma
tives are sad enough.

idle, it would seem that well-known in

through as speedily as enterprises of that
magnitude can be handled. Particulars,

with Mr.. w. G. Whitney in one or two
business enterprises of considerable mo-
ment. One Of them is syndicate to man

Maine, and the process used is IA German

seem SO far to have given the best results.
Mr. Weston says that the sulphite fiber
from wood makes as good blankets as wool
does. The wood blankets are said to be
cheaper, and while wooden blankets sell for
six dollars a pair the spruce tree product
can be turned out, according to this syndi-
cate, for three dollars pair. 1t may in

paper profession is that it's members are
compelled to see more of the shams of the
world than any other profession. Through
every newspaper Office day after day is
found all the wickedness of the world; all
the vanlties that want to be repaid; all the
mistakes that want to be corrected; all the
dull speakers that want to be thought
eloquent; all the meanness that wants to
get its wares noticed gratis in the editorial
columns; in order to save the tax Of the ad-

to be set right who never were right.
Through the editorial and reportorial rooms
all the follies and shams of the world are

for Exhibition.

Almost Immediately after the death of
the famous Snowman, p. Z. Barnum. Mr..
r. A Cunningham. one of his former
aids, sailed for England Before his de-
parture from New York I had an interest
ing interview with the old circus veteran,
which shows perhaps as we'll as anything
the enterprise displayed by his deceased
employer and those who were in his conf
dence. Nine years ago Mr. Cunningham
visited northern Australia for the purpose
of securing specimens of the aborigines for
exhibition in America. He was so success
full that he was arrested short time after
ward in Sydney. New South Wales, ON the
carge of kidnapping two women and seven
men belonging to tribe in North Queens

Australian Aborigines, Tattooed Black
Truckers and Boomerang Throwers."
