to be intelligent and to comprehend
everything that was going on. The wit
ness interviewed him at the Jail fol-

be badly broken up. HE asked me what
thought of the verdict" said witness. 81 tried
to avoid answering for a time, but he
fretted me and 1 replied that it was
justified by the evidence. Then he
burst into tears and said that he did not have :
fair show; that his witnesses were not be-
lieved. He seemed to be surprised al
the result of the trial; said that God knew
that he did not intend to kill his wife. ~
The witness saw Schneider in court when he
was sentenced. His beard was grown,
up and he had the appearance of
a man who had lost interest and hope. The
witness described the scene in court when
Schneider attempted to attack the distric,
attorney.
On cross-e1amination the witness said that
Schneider collapsed completely after his strug-
gle. but not SO completely as when the verdict
was rendered. The officers held him up when
he was sentenced.

called to the stand and testified as to the
conduct of Schneider during the trial. on the day

THE MEERKAT.

peculiar manner and blinking with
satisfaction as they feel the warm rays
enveloping them.
The meerkat follows it's owner when
adopted, much as faithful dog docs,
and is more picturesque object. 1t is
full of tricks, steals boldly anything it
wants, and is brimful of mischief
Then, when it is scolded for its naugh-
tiness, it sits up and begs forgiveness
in such funny attitude of mock hui
mility that the rogue is at once taken
into favor and caressed like naughty
child.
These little creatures have natural
faculty of changing into different
shapes and postures with lightning-like
rapidity. At one moment the meerkat is
quite formidable animal, sitting up
and regarding you with large, serious
eyes. Then it is as soft and timber
as bag of feathers, stretched out on
the ground, and it can curl itself into
a ball and roll into corner, where its
bits of ears and clusters of feet resem-
BILE the ornaments on some decorative
object Indeed, to look pretty and be-
guile its owners with it's mimic ways
seems to be its sole object in life.
OCCASIONALLY uocl1e anu apparently
happy tame meerkat will suddenly go
back to its wild life, which it can never
again be induced to leave, not even by
its chosen playmates, the dogs, with
which it has been happily associated.
Many of these little animals are
taken to Europe by travellers, and
domiciled among other household pets,
where they are regarded as objects OF
curiosity and made much of in conse-
quence, for no matter how many larger
or older pets may be in the family, the
lordly meerlsat at once assumes and
keeps the egotistical attitude of a

A MEDICAL COLUMBUS.
The Discoverer of Alcohol and Anti
mOny.

The Discovercr of Alcohol and Anti
mony.
The year 1898 is not only the quadri-
centennial of the discovery of America,
but also that of the birth of Paracelsus,
the celebrated chemist and physician,
although his methods were of such a
character that in modern times we
should can him a charlatan. 1t is said
that Paracelsus was also ono of the first
discoveries of alcohol, which he called
the elixir of Life" but demonstrated
the fallacy of his theory by himself dy-
ing a sot. One of the most noted ex-
ploits of Paracelsus was in experiment
tation with various drugs, one of which
acquired its name from the peculiar
qualities which it exhibited. Having
found q peculiar substance, he tested
its medicinal virtues upon the monks of
a neighboring monastery with the eff
feet that each one of the persons who
took tho medicine promptly died. From
this fact, he named the newly discov-
cred drug ''auti-monlz," which in the
Spanish language is ''anti-monie," from
which we have "antimony. Good

OF the brilliant bathrooms crush
She loves the fields, the flowers, the woods
And the joyous songs Of birds.

She boasts freedom from aches and pains

Though her crtmps do got out of curl,
And she ts the hope OF the world to-day.

worthy record. lie was lieutenant in
the Mexican war, serving as a volun-
teer. He afterward resumed the prac-
tice of law in Covington, KY, and then
in Charlottesville, Ind. He was four
years in the state legislature, and at
the beginning of the civil war was ap-
pointed adjutant general of Indiana,
soon afterward becoming colonel of
the Eleventh Indiana volunteers,
whom hc commanded in West Virginia.
He displayed such ability that he was
promoted to the rank of major general
in 1862. One of the most useful of his
military exploits was the defense of
Cincinnati, which he saved from cap
ture by the late Gen. E. Kirby Smith.
In 1865 he returned to the prac-
tice of the law in Charlottesville. He
was governor of Utah in 1S7S-S1, at the
end of which term he was appointed
United States minister to Turkey.
There he gathered material for the
Oriental coloring and detail which
have enriched his writings. 1.-THE
Fair God" which appeared in 1878, is a
story of the conquest of Mexico, the
inspiration for which may be traced to
his Mexican experiences as a young
man. His masterpiece is generally &C
l<nowledged to be ben Hur; Tale of
the Christ" Opinions differ upon the
greatness of this book, some intelli-
gent critics pronouncing it in execu-
ton and interest far inferior to it's
scope and conception. Popular opin-
ion, however, has rendered verdict in
the mere than 5000 copies sold. He
has also written life of Benja-
min Harrison, and ''The Boyhood of
Christ
1t is said that "Ben Hur'' is one of
the four novels that have attained the
widest sale in these times. The other
three are Robert Elsmere," s'Tess"
and The Little Minister" 1t appealed
to people of all kinds, to the unculti-
waited as well as to the cultivated; in
fact, it's success was essentially popu-
lar. The chariot race is the most IA
nous scene in the book, and is favor
lite one with elocutionists. If it were
not for that and "Aux Italiens" the
professional reader would feel her rep
ertoire quite scanty.
His wife has proved a congenial com
panion to him in literary matters. She
was Miss Elston, and was born and
brought up in Charlottesville.

Foreign Missions Discussed mt Yester-
days Meeting at Saratoga.
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y, June 9-The
Missionary Congress closed yesterday. The
morning meeting was practically a con
tinuation Of the one last evening, the sub
ject of Foreign Missions" being discussed.
Rev. John B. Shaw, D. D., presided and
Rev. DR.. Kittrich, of Tennessee, led the
preliminary services
The first speaker was William Dulles,
IT., treasurer of the Foreign Mission
Board. Mr.. Dulles said that 81, 200, 00U
had been expended by the board during
the year, and "again we come before you
penniless."
A general discussion was held on the
subject of "How to Increase Interest in
Foreign Missions;' Many of the congrega-
ton arose and each made a few brief re-
marks.
Rev. John T. McEwen, D. D., of New
York, in speaking for the Christian En-
deavor Society on this subject, gave an able
and very interesting address He told in
very striking manner how the young
men and women of to-day are spending

"Grandnlother's Cat"

Here Is an amusing game--onc which
will in no way harm poor pussy. Its
object is to see how many adjcctives
one can call to mind. Each player is to
apply to ''Grandmothcr's Cat" some adj
jective commencing with the letter A
One may say he is an ancient cat, an
other that he is an able cat, and SO on.
None can use an adjective that has
been already given by q previous
player. When one can think of no
new adjective suitable to apply, he
must retire from the game. The game
is continued until all the adjectives
beginning with A have been thought
of, and oil the members have retired.
Then turn is taken with the adjec-
tives beginning with d. And so on

karroo the mcerl1at lives in little col

driving through the veldt will come
across families of them sitting upright
in the sun and maintaining their posi-

entertains the idea that they have been

the curious seam which extends their

which their dainty claws and small
feet and ears are finished off, adds to
this process of the imagination. They
are very fond of dogs, of whom even of
the largest they are not afraid, and the
tame meerkat invariably chooses for a
soft pillow the outstretched form of
the skye or coolie in the family, and
burrows in the warm coat with great
satisfaction. They love the sun and

lieutenant governor, governor and

think we have reason for surprise.
Of course, our PRICES should COM

we are prepared to fill peoples
wants for less money than any
other concern can possibly do, but
we cannot expect people to know
this in so short time. We never
have failed in one instance in do
ing big business in any of our
stores after getting established, but
we find people are liable to say
when we begin, how can you sell
cheaper than anyone else ? This
question seems already answered
by everyone in Waterbury, and they
flock to our store, and it does our
