THE USES OF HAIRPINS.

There's nothing like them for untying
shoestrings.
For corkscrews, paper cutters and glove
or shoe buttoncrs they are invaluable.
They will pin hats and wells as we'll as
hair and are invaluable to mend wrecked
garments temporarily.
A hairpin is excellent for opening letters,
digging dimes out of q street car bottom
or jabbing offending ~cockroaches.
With a hairpin Strengthened out and one
end bent into a hook you can pick n trunk
lock or fish a wedding ring out Of the
waste pipe Of a wnshbowl.
One end Of a Strengthened hairpin jabbed
into a candle and the other end into the
window sill makes a very fair candlestick
in continental hotels where they charge ex.
ira for ''bougies."
If women could only teach men the use
of hairpins and men could teach women
the necessity of pockets, the gray dawn OF
the millennium would begin to tinge the
waiting east.-New York Recorder.

THE IMP0STER.
How a Clever Swindler oil, Many
Insurance Companies Was
Finally Exposed.
The Work Was Done by an
Amateur Detective Of
ChioBRo.
A Slick Polish Merchant who Became in
Turn Firsbug, Swindls'. Figsmist
and Almost y NJ usd

Ignatz Palzck was a native Of Poland
and came from that taraway country and
located in Chicago a dozen years aga He
was u Polish Jew, Il fine, gentlemanly ap-
pearing, well educated fellow, 0 very
smooth talker, and had the knack OF max
ing friends quickly. He was soon es-
tablished in business on Milwaukee ave-
Il in a gents" furnishing store. A year
passed, and one night Palzek's store and
stock Of goods were wiped out by fre-a
loss of 81, 000-which was fully covered by
insurance. The of the fire was never
discovered. Pnlzek obtained the insurance
money and soon started in business again
on North avenue. Everything prospered
EEK informed his friends and acquaintance
for the purpose OF marrying n sweetheart
he had left in Warsaw, and that he would
soon return to Chicago with his wife.
Several weeks after Palzek's departure
for Poland his new place of business, which
be had left in charge of a couple of clerks,
caught fire, and the stock of goods was
quickly consumed, the loss this time
amounting to $1,000. Word was sent tc
to Chicago, bringing a pretty wife with
him. The insurance companies were con.
WINGED that the last fire was the work Of an
incendiary, but all their efforts to prove
that Palzek had a hand in causing the fire
were without avail. He finally obtained
$4,000 to cover the loss he had sustained.
Palzek then retired from actual business
for awhile. He rented a fiat on North ave.
nue., where he installed his bride, and they
seemed to live rs happy as a pair of turtle
doves. He Joined several benevolent soci.
cites and became a member of the Odd Eel
lows, taking out a number of mutual in.
surance policies on his life in favor of his

wife, and in case of his death she would re-
ceive the sum Of about $4,000. Some
months later Palzek disappeared in a most
mysterious manner from his usual haunts
in Chicago.
After a couple of - lis n bloated floater
was found drifting about in the lake off
Lincoln park, which YVES finally identified
by Mrs. Palzek as the remains of her Ia
mented husband. The body was buried in
a north side cemetery, and at a later date
the widow had a headstone placed over the
grave. Mrs. PalZek now sought to obtain
the life insurance due her from the various
societies to which Palzek had belonged
Some of the societies were in favor of set
thing with the widow at once, but Jack
Bronson, who happened at that time to be
the secretary of the Odd Fellows society,
prevailed upon them to await further de-
~velopnents or until the manner of Palzek's
death had been more fully investigated.
Detectives We're sent to Cleveland, Cincin-
natl and st. Louis, in which cities Palzek
was known to have friends. Every clcw
was run down. but no trace of Palzek could
be discovered.
Mrs. Palzek brought suit against the diff
ferent benefit ass ociations, ard the matter
was fought in the courts for nearly two
years.

CHICAGO, ILL. March 2.-Wheat to-
day Jumped up ever &c. bushel. corn
advanced over 1c.. pork 50c.. lard doc,
all apparently the result Of the
death OF the Anticipation bill.
The traders showed dispo-
sition to operate more freely than for
months, and the markets were rousing
enough for a presidential inauguration
The boom began a few minutes after the
opening as soon as the fact became APP
parent that the offerings Of wheat were
not large and the demand urgent par
ticularly from shorts. The dizziness OF
late induced a good deal Of local short
selling. and the market became oversold
to such an extent that the killing OF the
Anticipation bill by Congress scared many
into covering. Their buying, combined
with that by outsiders and also traders
who believed that change for the bet
ter was due, absorbed the offerings so
readily that prices were advanced lc. In
few minutes. The upward tendency
was continued until an advance OF &c.
from the opening figures had been re-
corded. A reaction OF %nl1c. occurred,
and was in turn followed by an advance
Of &c. and the close was strong with net
gain Of &C. for May and 1Ac. for July
The course OF the market In corn was
identical with wheat. The bulge soon
spread from wheat and corn into the oats
crowd, and there was heavy business
done, while the price climbed about &c
above the opening quotations. The shorts
were again the principal buyers. Trading
was light for everything in the market
in hog products.
