Inaudi, without looking at them. kept
them in mind and correctly performed the
subtraction while talking to others. He
was also asked the number whose cube
added 10 the square gives 5000, and gave
the answer Immediately. NJ. Pom
care prepared the following problem for
him Take the number 4,s0l. square it.
cut away one. then divide the difference
by six. and give the square root OF the
number go found. maud. said the process
would take him three or four inmates. and
began to explain how he did the first feat
of subtraction given him, recalling tho
figures correctly without turning 20
the board. Then all at once he
said: II have found the solu-
ton of the problem" and gave the
answer correctly. This double action OF
his mind is very remarkable. Another
test. the multiplication of 452 by 53s, was
accomplished instantly. His successes
were received with repeated applause. and
he was relegated to a commission of the
Academic, including NM. Darboux, Pom
care, Iisserant, and Charcot.

Nature.s Mako of "nsasunn..

AT the mouth of Nehalem river, on the
coast of Oregon, a very queer substance is
found. 1t has the appearance of mineral
at first sight, but on close inspection and
under practical test it appears to be pure
beeswax. 1t has all the useful properties
of beeswax, and it is sold in Astoria at the
regular market price of beeswax. 1t is
washed ashore at high tide in quantities
ranging from lump the size of walnut
to chunk weighing $50 pounds. 1t is also
found on shore, in black soil where trees
are growing, at considerable elevations
above the water.
A piece of this strange substance submit.
ted to expert examination in New York is
declared to be what is known as mineral
wax. This substance has for years been
known to exist in the Ignite beds Of the
northwest. The quantities found on the
coast of Oregon would seem to indicate the
existence Of tertiary Ignite bed in the
neighborhood. 1t belongs to the hydro
carbon series allied to the retinites and
ambers-fossil remains Of resinous trees of
the tertiary sge.-Detroit Free Press.

COSTLY JEWELS MELTED
And Duo d'Arenberg's Valuable Paint
ings Destroyed by Fire.

BRUSSELS, Jan. 25.-The finest old
palace in Brussels, that of the Prince
d'Arenberg, caught fire early in the
morning. Prince de Ceoy dArenberg
had remained late at his club, and the
princess. who was sleeping in the left
wing of the palace, lit lamp to see the
hour at which her husband came home.
The lamp upset, setting fire to the cur
tains.
Soon the entire left wing was in
flames. The princess, assisted by her
husband, had to escape in her night
dress and seek refuge in neighboring
house. The servants who We're sleeping
in the upper part Of the palace had to
lower themselves from the windows by
ropes. One fell and broke both legs.
The firemen strove hard to save the
building, but the whole west wing was
totally destroyed with the magnificent
family pictures, some painted by Rubens
and Van Dyck. One fireman was killed
and two were seriously injured. All the
jewels of the princess wele melted.

Cleaning u Lamp with Alcohol.

CLEVELAND NOT In IT
Said That He Will Not Enter the
Presidential Contest.
DISAPPOINTED AND DIsGUsTED

AT the Treatment He Has Received
from Party Leaders The An
nouncement Delayed at the Re-
quest of Intimate Friends-Other
Possible Presidential Candidates.
New York, Jan 25.-The New York
World prints the following from its
Washington correspondent:
1.-TWO weeks ago Mr.. Cleveland de-
cided to announce his position and final
withdrawal from the presidential con-
test. He communicated his determina-
tion to few of his most intimate
friends. They urged him almost vehe-
mently no to do SO. Finally, against
his own inclination, he agreed to post
pone the announcement for short time.
Says Cleveland Is Disguised.
The truth is, Mr.. Cleveland is disap-
pointed and disgusted. He feels that
he has not received that consideration
from the party leaders to which he is
entitled. Only very few of his most
intimate friends have ever consulted
him. The others have ignored him
utterly. Even in specific instances,
when his wishes have been well known,
not the slightest attention has been paid
to them. Mr. Cleveland thought that
his work in New York last fall, to say
nothing of his position as the only
Democratic ex-president, entitled him to
some recognition. lie received practi-
cally none. He was first annoyed, then
indignant, and finally, after going to
Lakewood, where he had ample oppor-
tunity for reflection upon the subject,
he reached the determination to which
reference has been made.
Governor HiIl's Popularity.
"He saw Governor Hill make a mas
ter stroke at Albany just before leaving
tor Washington, thereby not only vim
ming to certainty the New York dele
CATION, but attracting the attention and
gratitude of Democrats throughout the
entire country. He realized the appar-
ent hopelessness of his candidacy with
out the support of his own pivotal state.
"Whether he will adhere to his deter
mination remains to be seen. Should
he finally withdraw, five names beside
that of Hill will become instantly con-
spicuous. These are Pattison, Carlisle,
Palmer, Boies and Gray. OF these all
except Gray are Cleveland men,"

Pumped Sewage ON a Fire.

WEsTFIELD. N. j., Jan. 25. = This
town is in the midst of a discussion
which, incidentally, involves the useful
ness of its fire department. About two
weeks ago the house of Baseball Man
ager Cooling caught fire. The fire de-
partment was called, but inasmuch as
they found no water handy. were com
PEELED to draw suction from two cess
pools in order to exting1ish the flames
and literally flooded the house with the
filthy sewage. Now Mr.. Coding looks
to the insurance companies for the full
value of the property. The insurance
companies are willing to make a settle
ment for the actual fire damage only.
The case will undoubtedly be taken into
the courts. The house, which was one
of the handsomest in Westheld, was
worth $4,000.

opinion that the CARA insurrectionary

Others will be tried soon, and will most
likely receive similar fate. The Mexi-

Forty BulIet Holes in His Body.

CoLuNBus, Miss, Jan. %. = John
Peevey, who was murdered last Monday
night twelve miles north of this city,
has just been buried. Will Amos, the
negro who was arrested in this city,
charged with the crime, has been proven
guilty. He was taken to the scene of
the crime, and when he seen the mutt
lated body of Peevey it completely un-
neryed him, While the officers and
some citizens were about to search his
house he knocked two of them down
and attempted to escape, but was shot
down after running a short distance.
There were at least forty holes in his
body. He was a powerful and active
negro. He was handeuffed when he at
tempted to escape. Considerable of the
murdered mans money was spent by
Amos. He procured n marriage license,
and was soon TO have been married.

A BALTIMORE SENSATION.
The Scion Of One of Maryland's Arisso-
cratic Families Becomes Insane.

Ihe Scion OF One OF Mafylands Aflsso"
cratic Families Becomes Insane.
BALTIMORE, Jan. 25.-Mr. T. Swami
L.atrobe, the scion of one of Maryland's
aristocratic families, and for many years
known as Baltimore's representative So
ciety leader, is confined at the Sheppard
asylum, victim of dissipation. This
announcement in connection with the
further statement that Mr.. Latrobe has
been indefinitely suspended from the
Maryland club, of which he has been
leading member and governor for years,
and that he is addicted TO the morphine
and chloral habits, has caused sensa-
ton.
Swami Latrobe is the son of Ferdi-
nand Latrobe who is now filling his
sixth term as mayor of this city, and
1t was he who caused the young mans
committal to an asylum. About a week
ago Mr., Latrobe went to New York,
where he was then elected member of
the Union club, of that city He there
fore occupies the unusual position of
being made member of one of the
SWEETEST clubs in America and suspended
from another upon the same day for dis
graceful conduct. The Maryland club,
will, it is said, at their next meeting eX-
pei Mr.. Latrobe.
Long continued abuse, of club privi-
ieges had been tolerated from Mr.. La
trobe, but last weeks attempt to assault
Mr.. Gilmer Meredith, the president of
the club, resulted in Latrobe's eject
ment. The tlisgraced man inherited an
income of 50 900 year from his mother,
daughter of the late Governor Swami,
but this was always insufficient for his
needs, and his income is sad to be mort
gaged for years in advance to note
shavers. This condition naturally wor-
ried the gentleman, and his friends say
he has become partially insane as a re-
suit thereof,

TEE ALIEN CONTRACT Law.
Wholesale Violations in the Mining
Districts.

NEW YoEK, Jan. 25.-Contract Labor
Inspectors Conlsling and Osborne, who
were sent from this city to the mining
districts of Pennsylvania to investigate
the workings of the Allen contract law,
have sent their report to Secretary Fos-
ter, of the treasury department.
Their report states that they discoy-
cred evidences of Wholesale violation Of
the law that was framed to protect
American workinglnen, In the mines
surrounding Scranton it Was found that
niAe=tenths of the miners at present EN-
rloyed are Hungarians, Italians and
Slavs. Five years ago the miners there
We're nearly all Americans.
The inspectors recommend more
stringent scrutiny of immigrants pass
ing through the different landing places.
Al present they say thelaw is practically
useless, as contract laborers pass through
by thousands without detection.
