IN A DANGEROUS CONDITION.

Henry Street is Not Fit to DO Used by
Either Teams or Pedestrians
There is loud and emphatic protest
going up from every one who has to
drive along Henry street over the dan
gerous condition of this thoroughfaro.
The bad places begin at Campbell street
and from there on there is succession
of holes and piles of rocks in the street
that would be disgrace to even q vii
lage town.
Some of these holes extend clear
across the street and. in fact, resemble
small ravines. On rainy days these be-
come filled with water and render the
street almost impossible.
There is a pile of rocks lying around
loose that belong to tho city, which
could be broken up and used to fill these
holes. If the city engineer would let
his street gang spend few days on this
work tho street would soon be fit to
travel over

Strange Curative Powers.

From the San Francisco Examiner.
There's girl in San Francisco who can cure
headaches-cure them without q bit of medi-
cine. She just lays her hand on the aches head
and that settles the whole matter.
There's something peculiar about the girls
hands.
They are white and shapely and very nice to
look at, but to the touch-ugh; they're as cold
as ice. More than that, they are always drip
ping wet, these strange hands.
It's an eerie thing to see handsome, healthy
girl lift her hands and let an icy dew fall from
the ends OF her fingers. She can do that any
time she wants to and never feel the least an
noyed at the awe Of the behoders
She is q tall. handsome young woman. who
has never been i'll in her life. She is rosy
checked and bright eyed, and she isn't the
slightest particle like the typical healer.
She works in a big. hot factory down town.
and she can cure any girl inthe place Of head
ache or any kind Of pain. She doesn't 90
through strange evolutions or weird incanfa-
tons. She just pushes back her sleeves and
lays her cold wet hands on the aching head
The patient feels q queer, creepy, shivery sem
sation crawling down her back. The cold hands
move slowly across the hot forehead of the suf-
ferer, the throbbing pain stops, the nervous
twitching OF the eyelids ceases, and the head
ache Is gone.

A MONTE CARLO INCIDENT.
Utilized His Revolver to Make . Sta
Instead Of . Corpse.

Utilized His Revolver to Make . stake
Instead Of q Corpse.
From the Chicago Herald.
At Monte Carlo few days ago was witness
Of the following peculiar incidents I was
seated at q table in the cafe Of the Paris Hotel,
which adjoins the Casino, with a group Of tour
lists, when haggard and disheveled Frenchman
entered hurriedly, called for glass Of absinthe
and, seating himself, proceeded to write vigor-
ously on sheet Of note paper in front of him.
My attention was attracted by his appearance
and evident nervousness. and my interest was
deepened when saw him take from his pocket
goid-plsted revolver. He examined the
weapon very carefully, as though he contem-
plated using it and wanted to see that it was in
proper order, then hastily put 1t back in his
pocket and resumed his writing.
By this time the attention of the whole group
had been attracted to the man, especially a,
they saw him remove the revolver from hi !
pocket and toy with II neryously. A stout
horid Englishman sat near me. He leaned over
and whispered to me: "1fy deah fellah the chap
means to do away with himself, take It," Then,
before could reply, he quickly turned to the
Frenchman and said: 'You wish to sell that
weapon, sir?"
The Frenchman drew back in astonishment,
He gazed in amnzement at the Englishman and
hesitated as If he had been insulted. Then there
apparently ensued q revulsion Of feeling, for a
smile overspread his haggard face as he ex-
claimed, with q shrug of the shoulders: "K you
wish, SIR
He placed the revolver mechanically upon
the table and picked up the gold pieces laid
down by the Englishman. Then he drank his
absinthe with seeming satisfaction. He
Frightened up. His entire manner underwent
q change. A few minutes later he walked
leisurely out Of the cafe and We saw him again
enter the Casino. The Englishmxn and myself
concluded to follow him.. We were surprised
to find ON entering that luck was evidently with
later from one Of the attendants that he bad
