The Duke OF w sstminster, the richest
nobleman in England, is known among

The following geographical informa-
tion from the London Sun is about as
accurate as other American items by
English writer's: DR.. Amory Bradford
halls from Montclair, New Jersey, one of
the three divisions into which NeS York
City may be said to be divided, the other
two parts being the island of New York
and Brooklyn New Jersey and Brook,
lyn each have about 100000 inhabit-
ants. The churc, at Montclair is the
largest suburban place of worship in the
vicinity Of New York proper. 1t has
membership of between 800 and 900
persons.
Whatever may be the fate OF the other
features of the Worlds Fair, the Ferris
wheel will not be moved to Coney Island
or elsewhere. 1t will remain on Midway
Plaisance. The company has the right
to its present position on Midway until
May I. 1894, and there it will remain.
Before the expiration OF that time ar
rangements will probably be made for a
contract between the Park Commission
ers and the company for the RICH to the
position. Men who have MOI ey inv sted
in the wheel are satisfied with ,uo pres
ent situation and believe that even after
the Fair has closed it will be sufficiently
we'll patronized to pay for it's operation.

Duluth has been flooded With artificial
eggs. They show clever work, and can.
not be detected except by an expert {.
They show the variety in size and color
of she'll common to natura! eggs, and .
when broken in the raw state have a .
perfect natural look. When cooked,
after bsing broken, the eggs follow the
appearance of the real article. Soft (
boiled, however, they can be detected by
a peculiar elasticity IN the yolk. There :
is in this state no law directly forbidding
or regulating the sala OF artificial eggs,
as in the case of butter They are very
cheap, as it costs but III cents dozen
to manufacture them in Chicago, where
they are made.
The most grewsome relic in the United
States, if not in the whole wide world,
ia in the possession of "Old LIE Per-"
Spanish Indian living on the Wenachee
river at the point OF it's junction with
the Upper Columbia Old lie Piers odd
souvenir is nothing more or less than
lasso, or lariat, composed wholly Of
human hair. It is over fifty feet in
length and as variegated in color as was
the coat Of Joseph of DID, The priests
(none but the mission clergy are ever
allowed to even get sight Of it) say that
less than fifty women and girls must
have been scalped to furnish material for:
this horrid rope, the black, brown, yel-
low, red and gray hair being curiously
and intricately woven into rope that
is strong enough to hold an OK, horse or
buffalo.
