A FIRE HORROR.

The fire bell rang ut the moment the fire
WAS discovered aud both volunteer fire
companies responded promptly. They
fought the flames like Trojaus and desprr-
ate risks OF life were taken to rescue the
unfortunate women, who were beneath
the wreck. from the fierce flames that were
gradually reaching them. Thejr:cries and
screams were simply terrible, and pierced
the hearts IF every one present Mr.
Sasher was frantic spectator of the horri
BILE scene. He wrung his hands and
moaned piteously. and at one time made a
desperate effort to jump into the raging
flames to die by the side of the woman
whom he led to the altar blushing bride
four months ago.
The fire began to wane, the crying and
moaning ceased, and all intuitiyely felt
that the spirits of the two ladies' bad as

The Man with the Hat Wanted For
eign War.
So far as our relations with other gov
ernments are concerned Mr.. Harrison
has adopted and energetically pursued
policy of slam bang.
He has an impression that the country
Is prosperous only when 1t is on the rag
ged edge of quarrel with some one, no
matter whom 1t may be, Chilli or Great
Britain or any one else. He is either
forgetful or ignorant of the fact that we
are not belligerent people and desire
to live In peace with the whole world 30
far as Is possible. He also forgets that
no nation ON earth wants war-neither
England nor France nor Germany nor
Russia nor Italy nor Spain nor even lit
tie Chilli.
It Is curious, therefore, TO note that
while all other powers are doing their
utmost to avoid a conflict Mr.. Harrison
seems to have bent his efforts to create
some opportunity to use our battleships
The conspicuous incidents of the last
three years consist of threatening COM
plications with some foreign nation, and
If it shall be our misfortune TO give him
second term there is ample reason TO
believe that we may have serious trou-
BILE ON our hands In the near future

How military map of Peking was Sc
cretly made is told by General Sir Robert
Biddulph. During the China war of
1850, in which Sir Robert was engaged,
our army was greatly embarrassed by
the absence of any map Of the city. But
it happened that the Russian legation
had, only few months before, con-
trived to make map in spite of the
jealous watchfulness of the Chinese.
They had sent an officer, in small
covered cart, such as they use to carry
their women about, completely covered
in. An indicator was ATTACHED to tho
wheel He drove for certain distance
to certain crossroad, for example, and
"took shot" with his instrument; then
down the next road, and in that way
made complete plan Of Peking. with all
its streets and roads, both in the Tartar
city and in the Chinese city. General
Ignatieff, who produced the map, offered
its use to the English. There were no
photographers then attached to the
army; but an Italian photographer, who
had followed the army for his own pri-
vate purposes, being set to work, pro-
duced number of copies, which proved
extremely serviceable.-London News.

The method proposed by M. variot, a
French authority, for extirpating tattoo
marks has been widely described and
approved, the initial proceeding being
simply to wash the part with concen-
trated solution of tannic acid, then
closely puncturing IL with set of nee
dies, such as tattooers use; following
this, a crayon of nitrate of silver is
thoroughly rubbed over the area, and
after moment the skin is dried of, at
which stage it is found that the pune
lures have become deeply blackened by
the formation of the tannate of silver in
the superficial layers of the skin.
The cauterization is said to result in
an indammatory reaction for couple
of days. and subsequently in the forma-
ton of crust of thin eschar, which sep
arates spontaneously in from fourteen
to eighteen days, leaving beneath it a
superficial red cicatrix, which gradually
loses its color, and at the end of few
months is scarcely perceptible. Only a
small area is to be treated at one time,
and powdered tannin Is the simple
dressing to be employed.-New York

The OFFICE HOLDERS. oAwo,oArs.

They Nominated Harrison I'm Expccta-
tion OF Future Favors.
President Harrison Is nominated for q
second term as the result OF his own per-
sisteht seeking and by means OF the free
use OF the opportunities OF the Office he
holds His campaign was ably planned,
splendidly managed and firmly and
sourageously conducted TO the end at
Minneapolis. The old guard OF his
army In the convention was horde OF
federal Office holders, led by federal Of
ace holders and inspired with the zeal
born OF benefits received and fostered
by the hope Of favors yet to come. But
for the Office holding delegates and the
delegates secured by the use of federal
patronage ut the south, the Hon. Benja-
min Harrison would not be the candi-
date Of his party.
The success OF General Harrison's
campaign, directed from the White
House in his own interest, Is q public
misfortune. II viii impel and encour-
age every president of the second or
third or fourth rate Of ability to make q
desperate struggle to retain the power

force the dangers pointed out by William
Henry Harrison in his inaugural address.

Faith Of Itallan Flshermen.

The blind faith of the Italian fisher
men in the efficacy of holy relics issps-
thetic. Many of them keep themselves
in q state of utter impoverishment in
providing necessary amulets and charms.
Not only is the fsherman's person COW
cred with these, but his boat must also
possess all possible saving power through
these religious appliances Should some
great storm arise and genuine danger
come, one by one these objects are cast
upon the waves with faith that Is posi-
lively sublime. Meanwhile his wife
ashore, possessed of the same implicit
and pious confidence, gives her most
precious relics to the sea that her hus-
band may come safe to land. And have
no doubt that when fatal disaster comes,
as it always does, this man sinks into
the silence beneath the tempest with his
last spark of vital consciousness an un-
dimIned flame of trust and faith.-Ex-

One Of the most melancholy figures In
the Republican convention Is Warner
Miller. A short time since he was lying
honorably outside the breastworks where
Platt put him and where Harrison found
him. When Platt wanted to use him,
however, he pulled him In or bunkoed
him and used him as he would. Miller
was respectable and worthy person so
long as he maintained his hostility to
the man who defeated his aspirations
for governor and who tolerated his lead
ership as much apparently for his own
amusement as for anything else, but
his surrender makes him simply one of
Platt's followers and subjects. AS o
leader he has passed away.-New York

PRICE ONE CENT


Students of natural history are much
interested in the recent discovery in
New Zealand of an extensive deposit of
the remains of the 81. attic extinct birds
called moas.
The discovery was made in plowing
through a slight depression in field
where bog containing several springs
had evidently once existed. Here, buried
IN q deposit of peat, at dopths-of three
or four feet, the skeletons OF 500 or 900
moas We're found packed and inter
twined together in a remarkable man
ner.
II was evident that these great birds.
which were much larger than the mod
ern ostrich, varying in height from ten
to fourteen feet, had perished there by
wholesale. An enormous quantity of
smooth quartz pebbles. which they had
carried in their crops, was found with
the skeletons. There We're also found
the remains of extinct species of other
large birds.
Various explanations have been sug-
gested 10 account for the destruction OF
such an army of powerful birds. One
theory is that they were overwhelmed
by great storm, and that their remains
were heaped together by the combined
action of wind and water.
What renders the question still more
puzzling is the fact that collections of
moa skeletons, mingled with those of
other giant birds, have been found in
similar situations elsewhere in New zea-
land
Students of geology are aware that
evidence is sometimes found in the rocks
of the sudden destruction of great num-
bers of animals that formerly existed ON
the earth, and the resemblance of such
cases to this of the New Zealand moas
is interesting.-Youth's Companion.

A strange story of superstition is re-
ported from Homoliez, in Hungary. Sew
eral bodies Of men had been found there
with their heads cut off. An investiga-
ton was made by Che police. and 1t
turned out that these mutilations had in
every instance been committed by young
men who were betrothed TO the widows
Of the decapitated persons. The hus-
bands had died natural death, and
their widows believed that in case they
married q second time their first hus-
bands would reappear and destroy their
welded happiness. Hence they had per-
suaded their new bridegrooms to decap-
itate their deceased partners. Mall
