Some mustache History.

From the Boston Evening Transcript.
What is the history of the mustache2
In Greece and Rome no mustaches were
worn without boards, but in the conquer
ing days of the Roman empire several
half civilized races, who had come par
TALLY under the influence of the Romans,
and who wished to be rid of the name of
barbara, or wearers of boards, attempted
to shave in imitation of their conquerors;
but as they had very imperfect imple
ments for the purpose, and as the upper
lip is VIGOROUSLY the hardest part of the
face to shave in the case of any one poorly
skilled in the art, they were unable to
make clean Job of it, and left a quantity
of hair on the upper lip This mark was
a Characteristic of several nations on the
confines of Roman civilization; of the
Gauls in particular, of the Dacians and
some others. See the Roman statue of
the dying Gaul in the Museum of Fine
Arts-perhaps the only classical repre-
sentation of a mustache in that institu-
ton. The Latin language has no word
for mustache. This barbarous accident
was unworthy Of the honor Of Roman
name.

JOY MADE A MANIAC OF HIM.
An Immigrant From the Azores Goes
Mad on Seeing His Fiance.
From the San francisco Examined

From the San Francisco Examiner
) Lemos, a young Contra Costa
county ranchman, went to Oakland to
get married He met his bride for the
first time in nine years, and was in the
evening committed to Agnews asylum for
the insane. The shock of meeting her and
the prospect of seeing all his hopes accom-
pllshed was more than he could stand,
and he became raving maniac Lemos
came from the islands of Azores nine
years ago, and started to make fortune
Tor himself in Contra Costa county. When
he came away from his old home, nearly
ten years ago, he left little black-eyed
maid waiting until she should hear from
MN IN far-away America, to tell her that
he had made fortune for her and bid
her come to him. Lemos went to Birones
valley in Contra Costa county, where he
bought small ranch He worked hard
and watched his property grow in value
and his business increase, and as he
worked he dreamed of the PARKWAY island
and the little maid who was only waiting
Tor word to come across the seas to him.
But it was this very work and the wasted
nervous energy that drove him insane
on his wedding day. One day he made up
his mind that there was room for two on
his Contra Costa ranch and the word
that both had waited for so long was at
last sent. She was to come to Oakland,
join his brothers family, who live at 1867
San Pablo avenue, and there they were to
be married. She arrived on Tuesday and
went to the residence, while Lemos was
sent for. He came to Oakland in themorn-
ing and started for his brothers. house.
Everything was prepared. The lovers
who had been parted for nine years were
on air from the time he left his Contra
Costa home. The railroad was too slow,
and when he reached Oakland he could
not hurry enough to reach his brothers
house. The door was opened. He rushed
to be reunited; the wedding was to
take place in the afternoon, and thay
were then to go back to
Contra Costa county He walked
into the house and to his ffance There
was cry of Joy, a wild shrek of delirium,
and Lemos became raving maniac. The
strain of waiting, the overwork, the
anxiety the delight at meeting her, all
conspired to undermine his reason. The
tension had broken and his mind had gone
whit. He was taken to the county Jail,
where it was found necessary to put him
in straight jacket. He raved about his
marriage and declared that his arrest was
for the purpose of preventing his marriage,
and that all had conspired to keep him
away from his bride. The examination
was held in the evening, and on his we'd
ding day hewas committed to the Agnews
insane asylum.

Are These Locust From China

A correspondent of the Rockbridge
Va.) News tells of the discovery at Tim
Der Ridge, in that county, of hole in the
ground from which locusts are pouring in
great abundance. The local conviction is
that this hole extends through the earth
to Egypt or China. A citizen attached
bullet to the thread of spool of cotton
and lowered it in the hole. sit went, {"
says the veracious narrator, "down until
the thread of the spool was all run of,
making 600 feet and no bottom was dis
covered" The presumption is that the
hole goes through, and it is suggested that
''it would be well for the President to
place guard at the hole and keep back
the paupers and scoundrels from China.
and if our government intends to enforce
the exclusion act, / think the cheapest
and quickest way would be to put them
in this hole and let them go home. They
can supply themselves with parachute,
and all going the same way there will be
no danger of a collision"

SANDWICHES.
They Were Known Even by the An
'77 c1ent Romans.


From the Pail Mall Gazette
The ancient Romans were very fond of
them, and called them "offula." It will
be seen, if the French encyclopedia is to
be accepted as an authority, that recipes
for making sandwiches on the other side
of the channel are of a very restricted
nature. French cooks, domlciled in Eng
land, have been much more voluminous In
. their recipes for the preparation of tooth
some sandwiches. -..
The eminent Francatelli, who was a
pupil of Careme and ''chef" to her mai
esty the queen, and subsequently to the
Reform Club, was the inventor of ''Ade-
laiden sandwiches, which were not dain-
ties, the bread being stamped out in
circular form and fried in clarified butter
to a light golden color. Between two of
these ''croutons'' was placed a prepare
ton of minced cooked chicken and ham,
mixed with curry paste; the sandwiches
were then anointed with grated parmesan,
mingled with butter, and baked for five
minutes.
Francatelli's s'Victoria'' sandwiches
were composed of thin brown bread and
butter, with layers of thinly-sliced hard
boiled eggs, small salad and cleansed
fiIlets of anchovies between the layers.
And to the same inventive genius we owe
the "Bretby' sandwich, made of slices of
white bread and butter, cut from French
rolls, with alternate layers of chicken and
shred lettuce.
Sandwiches for ball suppcrs can be
made of thin scollops of roast fowl, game,
or any kind of cooked fish, or of funny,
lobster, or the tails of picked brawns or
crayfish, masked by white mayonnaise
sauce and aspic Jelly; while ordinary
sandwiches, according to F'rancatelh,
should be cut from half-quartern loaves
and made from thin slices of beef. veal
ham, or bacon, seasoned with pepper and
salt, and French or English mustard
sliced pickles being sometimes added.
An American authority on the cuisine
very wisely observes that sandwiches re-
ouise more care than is usually bestowed
on them, for the reason that everyone be-
lieves that he can cut sandwiches. An
analogously naive belief has long since
been held as regards the driving of gigs
and the writing of leading articles.
As a matter of fact, for perfect sand
witches the bread should be made on pur-
pose, and the baker should be requested
to bake it in tins and raise it well before
it is put in the tin, so that it shall not be
full of holes, as in that case too much
butter will be consumed and the sand
witch will become disagreeably greasy.
II is only gluttons who like sandwiches
in the bread of which the numerous per
forations are filled with butter Epicures
prefer delicate slices of pure, white crumb
of bread, with united surface, and the
under sides tenderly and discriminatory
spread with thin layer. of the "best
fresh"

FAITH OF A RAINMAKER.
Prof. Jewell Believes He is Destined
to Control the Clouds.


Kansas City, June 1S.-President c. B.
Jewell of the Jewell Rain Company of
Goodlapd, Kan, which has been operating
along the line of the Rock island railway
in Kansas, is in Kansas City to-day buy
ing chemicals with which to continue his
experiments.
II am surprised" said Mr.. Jewell Sat
urday morning to a reporter, cat the
prejudice / have found against our ex-
periments in Kansas. People are often
unjust in their criticisms through ignor-
ance of the conditions necessary to COM
plete success. At one of our recent tests
in Kansas we got only a sprinkle at the
point where the test was made. Twenty
miles away there was heavy downpour.
The people proclaimed that we had made
a dismal failure, but we had really been
successful. The wind blowing at a pretty
stiff rate carried the chemicals used in
producing rain several miles, and of
course the rain did not fall in any guam
tity where they were sent up. Only on a
calm day will it rain at the point where
the experiment is made
'Prof Medium attempted to throw
mystery around his experiments, but we
do not OF course we do not tell the
chemicals we use, but our car is always
open to the public for inspection and the
presence of any number of spectators
does not deter us from going ahead with
our opera tions. Our work is done entirely
by gases, which we hberate through a
sort of smoke stack and which ascends
rapidly, how far / do not know. We
have progressed far enough to. determine
that there is nothing in the conclusion
theory. You will hear people say that
heavy downpours always follow great
battles. This is not true; history will
not bear it out As much powder was
burned at Gettysburg as in any battle
history records, but there was no rain.
At Dodge City we sent up balloon filled
with explosives, but we got no results.
Rainmaking is still in a crude state, but

believe that man will be able to control

How Smart Man Got Power 60 Run
His Machinery.

From Rnrper's Weekly.
II had large cork and bung factory IN

circular building, some sixty feet in
diameter On the floor Of this I coiled a

room, the coils gradually growing smaller,
till the last, in the center, was no larger
than this table. II gave me something

this pipe were lined with rather stiff hair

Immediately behind it. The rubber rat
would start off at a terrific rate-it was
made to go through the mile of tubing
in from two to three minutes
and the cat, of course, followed
furiously, thinking to catch the sup
posed animal throughout the entire dis
lance. Gentlemen, it was exciting to
watch healthy active cat whip about
those spirals, with the mechanical rat
about foot ahead, and going like can

against the brushes and her electricity

and gradually the city became quiet At
the end of week cat could be caught
and used again.
