Aerial Navigation.

Germany has a society for the pro-
motion of aerial navigation, which is
patronized by the emperor. The first
experiments are to be made with a col
ossal gas balloon fifty-six feet in di-
ameter and correspondingly tall, and
with improved equipments calculated
to give it longer floating qualities. 1t
is believed this monster can be made
to travel at a height of six miles. 1t
seems strange that, after all the scien-
tifc effort in aerial navigation, moth
ing better than a bag of gas can be de-
vised. Such an apparatus can never
be guided to any considerable degree.
but must go with the wind. 1t would
seem that a machine of sufficient light
ness, lifting power and safety could be
contrived. Until that is done the ques-
ton of navigating the sea of atmos-
phere will not be satisfactorily solved.
Perhaps when the storage of electricity
for purposes of power is fully developed
we shall have such a machine. We
must have a strong steady power APP.

the combination of electricity and
aluminium for the material works is
the most practicable in sight. -Cincin.

HE ROBBED THEM.

A Queer misunderstanding of an Apprsn-
tice Hand in a Turkish Bath.
When the new apprentice assumed
his duties at the Turkish bath estab-
lishment the manager thought he
seemed rather stupid and entered into
a long explanation of what he was to
do. He particularly emphasized the
command that the attendant was to
rub 'em without mercy"
During the day the manager heard a
great many complaints from his pa
irons that they had lost their personal
property. He thought that a sneak
thief must have come in to get washed,
and resolved to be on the look out. He
discovered nothing, however, though
he peeked around most of the day like
an amateur detective, hiding in all sorts
of places.
Toward the time when the new at
tendant was about to go off duty the
latter went into the managers office
and began behaving with much mys-
terry. He walked around like a wet
hen. waiting until the coast was clear.
When there was none but himself and
his chief in the office he tiptoed up to
the door and locked it. Then he pro-
duced from his pockets five gold
watches, some diamond rings, a few
scarfpins and a gold-headed cane, which
he set forth with great pride before the
manager, who, horrorstruck, recog-
nized the effects as belonging to his
customers.
You told me to rob 'em without
mercy" said the delighted novice, land
lone it. Do yer think I'll suit, boss!''

IN Il PASTURE.

Story of a Blind Mare and Her Equine
Friend.
l will tell you a little incident hat
came under my observation when |
was taking my vacation last summer
/ stopped alta farmhouse and the farmer
was the owner of a pair OF chestnut
horses named Doll and Jack. He had
raised them from colts, had always
stabbed and driven them together and
they were consequently much attached
to each other. Last summer he turned
them out to pasture and while wander
ing around the fields l noticed the in
cident. Doll has been blind several
years, but she never betrayed it by her
gait when travelling. In the pasture
she would sometimes become sepa-
rated from her mate and as soon as
she discovered it she would COM
mence to search for him. Some
times she would whinny and he would
respond to her, when she would go
directly toward him and when she
found him they would rub their noses
together. At other times Jack would
not answer, but would stop eating.
raise his head and watch the course his
blind mate would take back and forth
across,the pasture, each time turning
toward the left and nearing the fence
at each turn. Frequently she would
stop and listen. If she was nearing
the mischievous Jack he would stand
perfectly still, but if she was some dis
lance away he would stamp his feet
two or three times when Doll was lis
tening. She was always sure of find
ing him, though sometimes it would
take an hour to do so, and then they
would go away, side by side, cropping
the fresh grass. When they went
to the spring in n corner of the lot to
drink Jack always led the way and he
would stand beside the trough and call
to his mate until she stood beside him
and both would drink together. One
day a terrible racket was. heard in the
pastures, and it was kept up so long that
one of the men was sem to see what it
was all about. Doll had got one of her
feet caught in the spokes of an old
wagon wheel that lay in the pasture.
She stood very still and quiet in the
trap into which she had walked, while
Jack was thrashing around the pasture
and neighing as though he had been
hired to rouse the neighborhood. Doll
was released, while Jack stood by and
watched the operation with apparent
delight that was manifested with a wild
gallop around the lot when she was
once more free.-Utica Observer.

A Six Years Series of Cribbaee.

How the cards will rum is well
illustrated in a series OF games of crib
bage during six years played between
a gentleman and his wife Of Belfast.
In the last six years they have played
twelve thousand eight hundred games
together, and on a recent evening they
were two games apart, that is, one had
a lead of two games in the series, and
last week they were even games. At
no time during these years has either
one had a lead of over seventy games,
and n evening the lady won thirteen
straight games. Now after six years
of playing one is two games ahead. 1t
all shows that luck or chance at cards
evens things up in the. long run.-Bel-

BUCkWHEAT FOR BREAKFAST.

Early on a winter morning,
When the frost is on the rails,
And We eat by light O. candle
Till the coming daylight pales;
In the SAVIOR Of the kitchen
How the appetite awakes,
How We gorge the toothsome morsels-
Light and wholesome buckwheat cakes
Coming on the table steaming,
Stacked up high upon the dish,
Sight to make a SAD heart gladden.,
What more could a mortal wishf
Forks attack in goodly number,
Everybody likes them hot:
Cook has counted well the noses,
Not a single ones forgot.
Take a cake upon your platter,
Island make of it with cream,
Then a bit OF golden butter
Epicure, it is d dream:
Put a cake upon the butter,
Let the butter melt between,
Trickle DER q little honey
'Twere a dish for gods, l ween
Talk about your land of Canaan!
This is good enough for me;
Give me buckwheat cakes for breakfast,
And I'll quite contented be.
Here's a land of golden butter
Land of milk where honey flows;
Let me live and die in clover,
In thisl land where buckwheat grows!

DR.. KELLEY AND HIS IMITAToRs

The Danger in Following Any But the
Genuine Keeley system.
No one decries honest effort to prevent
men going to ruin through drink or
opium. Whatever will aid in saving
inebriates deserves commentator. DR..
Keeley's method is precisely such an aid.
1t treats the physical by removing the
demands of appetite and restoring the
body to the normal condition.
In twelve years over 100000 human be-
inps have been treated by his system, and
of these two-thirds and over i'll the last
three years.
practical side contrasted with moral
suasion, and tears, and sobs, and en-
treaty, and pledges, and resolves. These
100 900 and more rise up to testify Tor the
the Kelley system with irresistible
emphasis. True, here and there one
turns traitor and becomes the tool OF
limitations and spurious systems. for
never vet was there benehcent agency
introduced to man that the greco OF gam
did not prompt others to counterfeit the
genuine and perjure the souls IN the
palming of it OFT.
The grief of the thing is, however, that
these spurious concerns not only deceive
the patient and kindle hopes not to pe
realized, but the victims put III na2arol
their bodily health, and sufier, perhaps,
for life in consequence.
The commences and safety however, OF
the Keeiey system is testified to by too
many witnesses to make IL any longer a
question. 1t is matter OF public con-
Germ that fraudulent and mistaken claims
of other systems should be exposed.
They are all based on Keeley's success,
not one of them has his system; its
method is with him secret still;
and the other so-called cures that
| take on the similarity OF the
Kelley, cure title are guiltless OF hav-
| ing his preparations or anything at all
! like them. These imitators expose their
| ignorance and fraudulent character by
using sometimes titles to their imposition
that are unknown to chemistry or medl-
cine-for instance, there is no such thing
as 'bi-chloride of gold"
| All these things, under whatever guise,
are base counterteits. DIR. Keeley's is the
only genuine gold cure. General Charles
! II. Taylor, editor of the Boston Globe;
General \ cal Dow, the great temperance
advocate; Francis Murphy, the great
| temperance apostle; ID. Russell Brown,
Governor of Rhode Island; Rev. I. q.
Warner, National Chaplain of the 6. y.
| r.; Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., New York,
all testify that the proofs convince them
| that DR.. Keeley's discovery is just what
! it claims to be. That claim includes the
warning that there is danger to reason
and to health in experimenting with imi-
tations and spurious "cures."

IN HARD LUCK
The Career of Two Red-Headed In
dian-Slayers Cut Short.


dian-Slayers Cut Short.
Watchman Faltricks, who does duty at
the railroad depot, last evening saw two
young boys alight from San Francisco
train, and from their actions concluded
that they were runaways. The lads were
we'll dressed, but both wore soldier-caps,
and one carried large-sized air rifle.
They did not seem to know where to
go, so he took them in charge. The Off
Ger learned from the conductor of the
train that the lads had paid their fare to
this city, and he then took them to the
City Jail to await developments. One of
them had a pocket half filled with cart
ridges for the rifle.
Yesterdays Chronicle contained an ac-
count of the boys escapade, from which
1t appears they are victims of novel
reading. They are Clayton Nelson, the
13-year-old sou of United States Gauger
NJ. Nelson of 1894 McAllister street. and
Nugent Mitchell, the ll-year-old son of
w. j. Mitchell, who lives at the Living
ston Hotel, at Laguna and McAllister
streets. Both boys are tall, slender and
red-headed. They resemble each other
| very much, and have been mistaken for
| brothers.
Both left their homes at o'clock on Sat
| urday, ostensibly to go to dancing-school.
Mr.. \ elson missed a parlor rifle and a
gaudy belt the boy was pleased to wear
and strut about in after the style of his
fancied Indian-killing heroes, and at
once concluded the boys had gone to
hunt Indians.
Word OF their arrest was telegraphed to
San Francisco, and Mr.. Mitchell wired
back that he would come up to-day after
the 1ndian-slayers.
