Ga. u he theories of the age was that
tLe devil ST his mark upon each of his
seTvants-that witches were all marked.
a jury of the sex of the accused was APP
pointed TO examine the body for such
marks. 1t often happened that some ex-
crescence of flesh common to old people,
or one explainable by natural causes, was
found. One such was found on the body
Of Goody Nurse and reported to the
court, all out one of the jury agreeing to
| the report. Rebecca Preston and Mary
Tarben knew that the mark was from
natural causes. The prisoner stated TO
the court that the dissenting woman of
the jury Of examination was one Of the
most ancient, skillful and prudent, and
further declared, 81 there rendered a
sufficient known reason of the moving
cause thereof" She asked for the ap-
pointment of another jury to inquire
into the case and examine the marks
found on her person.
The jury of trials returned a verdict
of not guilty. Thereupon all the ac-
cusers in court "cried OUT with renewed
vigor and were taken in the most vio-
lent fits, rolling and tumbling about,
creating a scene of the widest confusion.
The judges told the jury1nen that they
had not carefully considered one ex-
preston of the prisoner, namely, that
when one Hobbs, confessing witch,
was brought in as evidence against her
she said: what, do you bring her? She
is one of u.s." The jury retired for fur
ther consultation. Even then they could
not agree upon a verdict Of guilty.
| They returned to the courtroom and de-
sired that the accused explain the re-
mark. She made no response, and the
jury returned verdict of guilty.-New

A Departure in Telephony.

The manager of the telephone ex-
change in Lisbon achieved distinction
some time since by connecting the royal
palace with the opera house at time
when the king was in mourning. The
telephone man also connected his own
house with the transmitters on the stage
of the opera, and had wires with receiv-
ers attached all around his drawing
room. On opera nights. he used to in
vite his friends to enjoy the performance
at his house, and it was a curious sight
when some ten or twelve people were
sitting about the room in comfortable
armchairs with receivers to their ears
head telephones were used, so that there
was no necessity of holding up ones
hands all the time-and listening atten-
lively without uttering a sound beyond
an occasional exclamation Of delight or
surprise.

Philadelphia to New York in 10 Minutes.
All sorts Of attempts to produce flying
machines that would fly have been
made, but it has remained for an in
genious Philadelphian to apply the troll
ley system Of electricity to the problem
Il. Gawthrop, a well known business
man; gives this preliminary description
of the apparatus:
This flying machine is to be driven by
an electric motor, the power being con-
veyed by the now well known trolley
system to drive a large fan. The
body of the machine is large fat sur
face, shaped like the deck of a vessel,
the stem part hinged and controlled to
steer the machiue up or down. There
is also a rudder to change the direction
to right or left, and hanging weight to
keep from fitting.
Like a bicycle, it will require much
skill and alertness on the part of the OPP
orator, and will be attended with some
dangers to beginners. 1t should be kept
about 100 feet from the ground to give
leeway, and the trolley firmly secured to
the wire and the wire to the poles.
Mr.. Gawthrop is under the impression
that this system, if properly perfected,
would enable the distance from Philar
delphia to New York to be covered in

Songs Not Easy.

Beranger, the famous French poet,
whose greatest gift lay in writing little
poems which he called songs, was par
ticularly dependent upon the chance
visits of the muse
He was once visited by the author and
academician, Viennet, who said to him:
You must have written several songs
since saw you last"
Il have only begun One," answered
Beranger.
"OnIy one! | am astonished"' ex-
claimed Eiennet
Beranger became indignant.
."Humph!' he shouted. DO you think
one can'turD off a song as one turns off

Use of the Telephone in Surgery.

A remarkable application has been
made by DR.. J. Mount Bleyer. In case
of membranous Group intubation was
successfully resorted to. When the re-
moval of the tube became necessary it
had disappeared. Tracheotomy would
evidently have to be performed, but the
difficulty was to locate the tube. A del
icate metallic probe attached to an cleo
trio wire, the other end of which termi-
mated in a telephone receiver, was passed
down throuSh the larynx. As soon as it
came in contact with the tube a distinct
click was communicated to the ear
through the receiver. The exact loca-
ton having thus been determined, trache-
otomy was performed and the tube ex-
tracted.-New York Telegram.

Springs BedfeIlou.

Spring went about the woods today,
The soft foot Winter thief,
And found where idle Sorrow lay
Between the flower and leaf.
She looked on him and found him fair
For all she had been told;
She knelt down beside him there
And sang of days of old.
His open eyes beheld her naught,
Yet gan his lips do move;
But life and deeds were in her thought
And he would sing Of love.
So sang they till their eyes did meet,
And faded fear and shame;
More bold he grew and she more sweet
Until they sang the same
Until, say they who knew the thing,
Their very lips did kiss,
And Sorrow, laid abed with Spring,
Begat an earthly bliss.

That depends upon the
Liver. If the Liver is

breath is bad, digestion
poor, head dull or aching,

general dependency and

the housekeeper of the

SWEDISH SPECIE.

Pieces of Money Weighing Four Pounds
 Coin Are Sent to the Worlds Fair.
 Some curious copper pieces of money were received at the custom house re- gently for Gustavus Stemberg, a Swedish dealer in coins who intends to exhibit them at the worlds fair. The coins came from Sweden, where they circulated in the sixteenth century, and bear more resemblance to pieces of boiler iron after an explosion than money.
 The coins are great flat pieces of copper. cut into squares. The smallest coin is four inches square and worth thirty cents The largest is over foot square and with face value of four dollars, and weighs four pounds. Each slab of copper is stamped in several places with an insciptiOn giving the date of its issue and its denomination.
 These enormous and cumbersome coins were the result of craze which prevailed several hundred years ago for the exclusive use of copper for money. In those days wealthy ladies were com pelled to hire an attendant to accom- pany them to carry basketful of the coppers while shopping.

eAsYs THINGS ALWAYS SAFE.
Even the kieptomsnise Respects Their
 0wnerShip.

Even the kieptomanisc Respects Their
 Ownership.
 Dozensof baby carriages stand packed along the pavements of Fourteenth and Twenty-third streets in front of the big says the New York Herald. Sometimes there is baby in one or more, but they are usually empty of infantile live stock. The rest of the family parapher- nalia is invariably left to take its chances in the street while the owner of the outfit assaults the bargain count CT. There is one thing measurably safe in New York-''baby's things" If other peoples children are not exactly sacred in a woman's eyes she entertains sentiment as to her own offspring which scorns the belongings of another baby. She is more than apt to look askance upon every passing perambu- lator as the possible precursor of fever, whooping cough, measles or some other dire affliction common to infantile man kind, and gives it as wide a berth as circumstances may allow.
 IL would be poor investment for the industrious and nimble-fngered shop litter to take 'baby's things even if she got good chance, for there would be no market for them. Even the more refined kleptomaniae. who steals with out knowing why, just because she was born that way and cannot help it, knows better than to do that. for she steals only for the home market Thus "baby's things" can be left on the crowded sidewalks from luncheon till sundown without danger of loss. And thus they are left from hour to hour every pleasant afternoon, while the mother wrestles with the problem of getting twenty dollars worth of goods for ten-doliar note; and the wheels of the perambulators grow clean and bright under the constant friction of spring trousers and taiior's gowns.

Outside Mining Notes.

Osborne and Terrill, who are work ing a claim close to the old Peabody mine of Johnston, have struck bunch es of ore giving 60 per cent copper and Is per cent nickel. This ID sink ing a shaft 70 feet deep through very hard capping.
 The Peabody mine, which Is being still chlorided by MT. Wien, O: Dos Cabezas, is turning out its usual quota O. high grade copper ore. Nickel specimens are occasionally met with in this property.
 Up among the clouds" would be the proper appellation of a new find being worked by Vim. Four and James Lamb. It is located near the sky line of the highest peaks of the Dragoous ct the head of the FOurr canyon, is in a soft limestone form aiion, has a north south strike, pitches west, was 67 per cent lead ere with trace of silver on top, and now down about 6 feet fine grade of chloride is coming iu in small seams.
 It is comparatively a short time since I. A. Trainor shied his castor into the first cove east of the Golden Rule on the north slope of the Drs- goons, but he and Nelson (his partner) have good reason for satisfaction from the result of their labors on the Noun tain Key. Running along the base of the mountain, in healthy lime and porphery formation, there was an almost infinitessimal showing of a seam Of ore, verita ole knife blade. Single handed, while his partner vol ked elsewhere, Mir. Trainor tackled the proposition, sank and hoisted his own dirt for 90 feet, and now at depth of 50 feet an east drift, in about 20 feet, shows about 16 inches of ore, while the west drift, about 90 feet on the ledge, shows from IS inches to ? feet of ore. They have carload ready for shipment, which, according to samples, should give $l00 net from the smelter. It is a very desirable grsde of lead ore, carrying little gold and running well up in silver.
 A short half mile north of the Mountain Key John Fierce and A. Bauer are sinking on a claim almost adjoining the Golden Rule. The ore shows considerable lead and is said to go well in silver. Work has just commenced and indications are good

From that time until July, 1881, it was continually in service, and ran during that period 7s9, 300 miles without being fitted with a new boiler. As a pioneer of early railroading and as contrast to the powerful modern Mo gull" this old locomotive will attract much attention.

The provisional diet of Styria, in Austria, has taken a very curious step backward in the direction of medieval legislation by the passage of law pro- hibiting indigent people to marry with out license to be issued by the author ities, which means that no licenses shall be granted to the poor. Although con- cubinage is prohibited in Austria this new Styrian law can hardly fail to in- crease this lawlessness.
