A STR ANGE CASE.
A Lads Mysterious Disappearance
Peculiar Indifference of the Father
Fears of Foul Play.

A La0's mysterious DlsappeaTahce-
Peculiar Indifference of the Father
Fears of Foul Play.
DARTMOUTH, N. H Nov. 21.-The resi-
dents of North Kittery are excited over the
disappearance of Roland Norton, the six
teen-year- son of Samuel Norton, who
lived within short distance of the York
line. Young Norton disappeared Sunday,
August 90, and since no trace of his where
abouts have been learned and what is
more peculiar no effort has been made on
the part of his father to learn of his hiding
place. This strange paternal Indifference,
taken in connection with the fact that the
father was in the habit of cruelty abusing
the boy, has led the neighbors to
think that there has been foul play.
A visit to the locality to-day and inter
views with several near neighbors elected
the following acts: On Saturday previous
to young Norton's disappearance his faith
er was seen to strike him over the head
with an OK gosd three times. Each blow
being severe enough to make the boy fall.
The boy, however, managed afterwards to
rise and go to the barn, from which he was
seen to come out later in the day and go to
| the house. Since then his whereabouts re-
main mystery.
Young Norton was well liked by the
neighbors and on several occasions spoke
of going away, but told particular friend
| that in case he left he would tell of it, and
his failure TO do so naturally leads this
| friend to strongly believe that he has been
the victim of foul play. Another party
stated that since the boys disappearance
| his father had told several conflicting sto,
rias as tn what he wore IL Ia known that
a friend of the lad promised him money
| in case he wished to get away from his
father, but the friend stated that he never
came for aid.
Samuel Norton, father of the missing
boy, was seen. He talked freely about hi
sons going away, but appeared to b,
nervous and i'll at ease. When asked If b,
had made any efforts to ascertain tn,
whereabouts of the boy, he said he hai
not, as it did not concern him. He sale
he thought that the boy had gone to Chi
cago to see his mother, but admitted tina
the lad had no money to take him there
According to the fathers statement, whel
the boy went away he left his best clothes
wearing his common working clothes
Norton until five years ago lived in Chi
cago. There he quar1eled with his wife
came east and took his abode at the oil
homestead. His son came about q yea
later, and his coming was the commence
ment of Ill treatment by his father, VIII
made the boy do all sorts of drudgery.

The discussion as to abundance of hair
being evidence of strength has again
come up, some arguing that there was
nothing novel in Samson's strength being
in his hair, and others that as a rule the
strongest men are least blessed with an
abundant hair covering. There are
necessarily exceptions to all rules, but
most freaks of strength of modern times
have luxuriant hair. There are five or
six women now travelling with dime
museum shows, lifting enormous
weights with their hands or teeth, and
performing other extraordinary feats of
strength, and nearly all of them have
magnificent, heads of hair.
Among prize fighters the same rule
applies, and although athletes generally
keep their hair cut very close to the
head, they usually have very thick
growth of hair and are seldom ba'1.
Ancient history is delved into a great
deal in the discussion, but the fact re-
mains that the strongest men of today
have in almost every instance not only
heavy heads of hair, but also quite a
substantial growth ON the chest and
arms. 1t may be that excessive bodily
vigOr and activity promote the growth
Of hair, or that the hair itself is an evil
dence of strength, but whichever may
be the cause and the effect, the com Nj
nation exists as a very general rule -

Funerals in the French Capital.

As a rule official funerals strike the
inhabitants of this fair city with the
same CHEEKY enthusiasm as is inspired
in an American town by the announce
ment that Barnums circus is going to
parade the streets. There is always a
certain constraint in Anglo-Saxon coun-
tries at the sight of funeral, for Anglo
Saxons have a horror and fear of death
which is nonexistent in the French char
acter. The Parisians have no special re-
spect for nor any marked dread of the
king of terrors. If Partisan is bored
or i'll OF in trouble or is overburdened by
financial troubles he is very apt to solve
the problem of life by committing sui
eide, and so getting out of it all with
perfect philosophy and serene indiffer-
ence. Life in Paris runs much more
smoothly from the fact that no one as a
rule lives to be madly unhappy. The
Parisians cease to live when they cease
to enjoy.-Paris Cor. Philadelphia Tele

YeacAeR.

EseAchers have preached me sefmons,
IAAvo slept their sermons through;
An my relations have lectured,
NY friends have lectured too.
Ny foes have given me warnings,
And have taken them not:
Friends and foes and relations
Iaever needed a jot.
Their words were the essence of wisdom,
There was nothing they didn't foresee;
And not one atom of all they said
Has ever remained with me.
They were staid and pallid and solemn,
They were gray and wrinkled and old;
Ny teacher has cheeks of roses
And hair of the suns own gold.
His words run into each other.
He stammers and babbles and cries;
He doesn't know he is powerful
He never dreams he is wise.
But in three short years he has taught me
More than those graybeards staid
Had taught in the seven and thirty
Before he came to their aid.

a singularity of physical conformation,
having two distinct voices, the one
strong and hoarse, the other weak and
queru1ous, of both of which he occa-

to a story of his having fallen into a

IN his shrill voice. A countryman COM
