THE SPANISH RECEPTION.
Queen Isabella, of Castillo, will
Receive Her Loyal Subjects
Next Friday Night

The Spanish reception at the
residence Of Mrs. VIM. Lindsay, on
Wrapping street, next Friday night,
instead of as we announced last
week. promises to be the social event
of the season. Though no invitations
are to be issued and the entertain
ment is open to all who choose to
come and pay the admission fee of
fifty cents, the interest of all the
social circle has already been elected
and the success Of the entertainment
assured. The Queen has been select
ed for the occasion, who it is said
will grace the throne room and most
worthily wear the honors of Royal
Isabella and the lovliest young ladies
in the city will be chosen as her
maids of honor. A request has been
made of the people that they attend
in Spanish costumes, as much as pos
sible. and give the occasion the air
and brilliancy of royal court. Re-
freshments will be served TO the
guests, and rosettes of Spanish colors
sold for small price by number of
young ladies. The orchestra led by
Prof. Wolfe, who has generously ten
dered it for the occasion, will dis
course the sweetest and latest music.
The proceeds of the entertainment
will be devoted to the furnishing of
a Kentucky parlor at the Worlds
Fair, for which purpose all the Co.,
lumbar Clubs of the State are en-
deavoring to raise the sum of $1,000.
The club of this city is differed as fol-
lows: Mrs. VIM. Lindsay, President;
Mrs. Jennie G. Morton, Secretary,
and Miss Mag Russell, Treasurer
Tickets for the royal reception, are
placed for sale at the State Library,

Killed by Coal.

Robert Johnson, a young man
about twenty-five years of age, an in
mate Of the Predetermined Institute,
who was employed as a helper to the
fireman at that institution, was in
stantly killed Thursday morning by
quantity of coal falling upon him
from the large coal pile near the fur
mace door. Capt. Henry Wilson, the
engineer at the institution, ordered
the furnace early in the morning to
tell Johnson not to wheel any coal TO
the fireman until after dinner and
then to take it from another part of
the pile. but when the fireman told
him Johnson said that he did not care
what Capt Wilson said, he was going
to wheel the coal then, as he had
help; and Capt. Wilson being tempo
rarily absent from the engine room,
he took his wheelbarrow and pro-
ceeded to the place where he had
been taking coal from the pile. An
other one Of the inmates of the insti-
tuition called to him to come away
from there, as Mr.. Wilson said he
must not wheel coal until after din.
ner. He again replied he did not
care, and taking pick proceeded to
dig the coal from the bottom of the
pile, which undermined that at the
top and caused about two tons to be
precipitated upon him. He was
buried so deeply that it required a
half hour to remove the coal from
over him, and when the body was
finally gotten out life was extinct.
Johnson was sent to the Institution
from Ohio county, and after being
kept in school until it was demon
strated that he could not learn any
thing more, was assigned to work
about the furnace and had filed the
position of helper for some time, Ashe
had no family or friends to claim the
remains. the body was buried in the
cemetery.
Coroner Dehoney was notified and
with jury held an inquest upon the
body, verdict being returned in &C
cordance with the above facts.

Continued Cold Weather.

The cold snap which set in two
weeks ago is still with us and the
mercury has been hugging zero I'M
comfortably close. Tuesday morn
ing it registered 40 above, moderated
little during the day but in the
afternoon began to grow colder and
at Z o'clock in the evening many
thermometers stood at zero. That
night the mercury continued to drop
and at o'clock Wednesday morning
stood at s. below zero, many Their.
mometers registered 100 and 1j0
below. The water pipes and water
backs in stoves froze up and plumb
ers were in demand everywhere.
Several persons came near being
seriously injured by the explosions
caused by making fires in stoves in
which water in the coils of the water
backs were frozen. At the residence
of Capt. John w. Headley the coil
in the kitchen stove exploded, blew
the stove to pieces and scattered frag-
ments around the room promiscuous-
ly. Wednesday the mercury rose
twenty odd degrees and that night
it showed again, but Thursday the
temperature began to drop and yes
terday morning was only % above
zero. The river is frozen over, the ice
being six inches thick, and tn e price
of coal is going up 2 or cents per
busbel day.

Artificial Auroras,

Artificial miniature auroras of the bo-
reals variety have been produced by
both De la Rive, the French savant, and
Lenstrom, the Swedish astronomer. In
Professor Lenstrom's experiments, which
were made in Finland, the peak of high
mountain was surrounded with coil of
wire, pointed at intervals with tin nibs.
The wire was then charged with elec-
tricity, whereupon brilliant aurora ap-
peared above the mountain in which
spectroscopic analysis revealed the
greenish yellow rays so characteristic in

4 Powerful Antiseptic.

Extensive researches made upon cor
rosive sublimate by DR.. McClintock of
London show though the substance is not
a valuable germicide-germs withstand
ing its action for some time-it proves
to possess, of all substances, the greatest
antiseptic power, so that germ treated
with the article, unless perchance it gets
into the blood or is exposed to very ex-
ceptional conditions, is powerless to
grow-that is, it is probable that spore
of subtilis or anthrax treated with subli-
mate, in 1000, and then thrown on the
soil or into water, will not terminate.
owing to the fact that the capsule of
sublimate surrounding it is not removed.
1t is found that corrosive sublimate
forms with cellulose, as cloth, filter pa
per, etc, with silk, with aIbuminous
bodies, with some part of bacteria. prob
ably the envelope, chemical compound
that cannot be removed with any amount
of washing in water. Thus sublimate
when acting on germ forms a capsule
around 1t that protects the germ for
time from the further action of the sub
Innate and in turn Forms an impenetra
BILE barrier to the growth of theorganism
unless removed. This barrier may bere-
moved with salines.

THE SNAKE BITE WAS FATAL.
And the Red Nosed Man Went on to Tell
How the Venom Got In Its Work,


Its all hum5ug, this talk about rat
tlesnakes being SO deadly poison" said
red faced man in the smoking car.
I've lived among 'em. They used to
be so thick out where l live that YOU
had to be mighty careful where YOU put
your feet down if you didn't want to
hurt RATHER or two every time you
stepped.
My bed was never any more than big
enough for he and the easy conscience
always slept with, but I've. woke up
more times than I've got fingers and
toes and found that two or three rattle
snakes had managed to find room with
Us. They We're plenty, tell you. out
where live. Bat deadly: Pooh! Why,
I've known scores and scores of people to
be socked, and socked Deep by rattlers,
and | never knew of but one instance
where rattler's bite was fatal; never
but once out Of more cases than there's
pimples on a goose.
Bill Bulger was the man that was
bit that time-a great, big, rough scuff
OF log chopper that didn't look as if a
whole den of rattlers could raise as much
as flea bite on him. But he went to
teasing a big buck rattlesnake that had
come down to camp to look around one
day, and the snake just threw his upper
teeth against Bill couple of times, and
every drop Of poison he had he emptied
into Bills wrist. Holler? Great ices
wax, how Bill did holler! We grabbed
him and hustled him over to the Pigs
Ear shebang on t'other side of the camp
and began to decant rum into him, and
it wasn't long before Bill looked as if he
was glad he was bit.
Everybody said he'd die, though, sure
pop, because that buck RATHER must have
unloaded into Jim close on to three fin
gers of the best poison he had Conse-
quently folks were surprised more than
You can think when they got around
next morning and found Bill on deck as
clipper as 4 red squirrel and sound as a
white oak knot"
What" exclaimed the man in the
next seat. Il thought you said that bite
was fatal!''
1T was, SIR" replied the red faced
man. Bill got blind, crazy drunk on
the strength of that snake biteand killed

Cosmetics Among the Romans.

All that had been previously done in
the way Of facial decoration was left far
in the shade by the ancient Romans.
All the Latin MISUNDERSTANDING poets,
naturalists and others-mention it in
one way or another. 1t was the practice
Of Roman actors, as it has been of those
of the profession since the theater has
existed. Many of the emperors used
paint more or less freely. Heliogabalus.
one of the most eccentric, when he en-
tered Rome for the first time, had his
eyelashes painted black and his cheeks
red and white. In the time Of Augustus
the custom was universal among women
of fashion, details of which are given by
Horace, Catullus, Tibullus, Ovid, Pro
pertius and the rest. Martial speaks of
the chalk of Fabulla that fears the rain.
and the wax of ISABELLA that fears the
sun.
Horace mentions red lead and carmine
as among the articles employed. Ju-
venal in one of his satires describes Il
paste that covers the faces of wives and
adheres with tenacity to the faces of hus-
bands. Coquettes, according to Horace,
used paste prepared from beans, much
like that used by some modern French
women, and were also given to the use
of cummin. Mandragora is mentioned by
Piny, and peoples by Ovid.-San Fran
cisco Chronicle.
