a UNIQUE SWlNDLE.

PARKERsBURG, w. Va, June 13.-One
s.f the most unique swindles perpetrated
mas been discovered. Daniel 9fardway. a
shipper and buyer of hides, wool, roots
and herbs, was the victim. Yesterday
while Gardway was sorting for shipment

from Calhoun cou nty, one OF the interior
counties, from which large amount OF
ginseng is annually shipped, a bystander
Stcked up a roo6 OF dry ''seng," worth 90

Instead of swapping as the root generally
does. it broke, but did not separate.
Struck with curiosity the man cut into
The root with his pocket-knife, when he
found it had been filed or loaded with
lead. The trick was done In this way:
When the root is green it IS soft and po

WOMEN WITH MUSTAChES.
A German Professor Thinks That tho Day
of the Bearded Beauty Is Coming.


OF the Bearded Beauty Is Coming.
A learned German, who has devoted
himself to the study of physiology, an
thropology and allied sciences, makes
the rather startling assertion that
mustaehes are becoming commoner
among the women in the present day
than in the past. He says, as quoted
by the London Standard, that in Con-
stantinople. among the unveiled wom-
en- that are to be met with, one out of
ten possesses an unmistakable covering
of down on the upper lip. In the capi-
tai of Spain, again, the proportion of
ladies with this masculine characters
tic is said to be quite equal to that OBJ
servable on the Golden Horn. An
American medical man states that in
Philadelphia fully three per cent. of
the adult fair sex are similarly
adorned, and probably the proportion
would be still larger but that many
women take the trouble to eradicate
the unwelcome growth by the applica-
ton of depilatory preparations. Is
this increase in the number of women
with hair on their faces to be regarded
as sign that the humun race is inn
proving? Very few men, at all events,
will be disposed to consider that a
mustachea adds to the charms of the OPP
posite sex. Englis hmen, indeed, only a
generation ago, bad such detestation
of mustaches and boards that the prac-
tice of shaving all hair off their face
down to their mutton-chop whiskers
was all but universal. From one ex-
treme our clean-shaven fathers
plunged into the other, and boards
and mustaches rapidly became the
fashion. The fashion has of late
years again been modified. Boards
are less common, but the mustache is
cultivated in England as widely as on
the continent. But why should the
fair sex be visited by this infictionr
Some writer's on ethnology hold that
the higher races of mankind are al
ways the hairier, and Mr.. Mott thinks
that in a few centuries men and wom-
en- viii ali be clothed with hair.

Ranchers are now crossing several
breeds of, hounds to obtain speed,
coupled With power. They have even
tried crossing of wolves.
The new animal cheerfully hunts his
vulpine kindred, but is not fast enough.
Packs of hounds, more or less of fox
h6Nnd relationship, have been tried,
but it is found that when tired of run
ming the wolf lies down, opens his
mouth. and invites some one to come on.
This invitation is only accepted when
the VOLTS attention can be engaged by
a man, or otherwise, in one direction,
so that the hounds can run in on him
in the rear. Then no room is left for
complaint. A great many are killed in
one way or another, but the cowboys
say they are increasing in number
