1t is reported from Ossawatomie,
Kan. that a meteor fell near that
town in the enclosure where the me-
mortal building and the statue of John
Brown are situated. 1t dashed through
the dome OF the building, and hitting
the statue, shattered its left arm.
1t then passed through the floor and
six feet of clay till it reached bedrock.
1t was dug up and submitted to ex-
perts for examination. They say
that it is composed of pellom. me-
tallic variety of iolite, a substance
that does not exist on earth, so

A case is reported from New York
which well deserves the attention Of
the society for psychical research.
William Featherstone is head waiter
at Harlem. The other morning early
he was awakened by feeling of hor-
ror. He sprang up in bed and saw
beside him an apparation which filed
him with terror and caused him to
scream out with fright. The figure
was hay and ihdistinct, but the
frightened man recognized the Inca
ments of his father, who was glider.
The right hand grasped razor, the
left was uplifted and pointed to the
throat. which was encircled with a
crimson ring. When the figure faded
away FeatherstOne, in great perturba-
ton of mind, dressed himself and
went to his fathers room on Sixth
avenue. 1t was closely locked, and
there was no sign OF life within.
With the assistance of a policeman,
he forced the door, and on the floor
was the realization OF the spectral ap-
pearance. His fathers corpse lay on
the floor, with ghastly wounds in the
throat, and lying in what had been a
pool of blood, but was dry and hard.
The right hand held razor, the left
was on his breast, and the finger
pointed toward the mangled throat.

Hotel Waldorf, the magnificent new

other day when they received orders
that it was Mr. Astor's will that every
one OF them should be cleaned shaved.
The iehus did not know what to do
about it at first, and many Of them
have handsome mustaches or profuse
side-whiskers, and prefer to wear
them. After a good deal of discus
sion they decided that they would
effect an organization, enter public
protest, and resist the ukase, which
one of them said was worthy of the

formed the Liberty Dawn Association.

4 French doctor wants to introduce
his patent process OF preserving the re-
mains OF the dead. 1t is not embalm-
ing them nor yet mummifying them,
though the bodies must be embalmed
before the doctors new process takes
hold of them. The new idea is to
electro-plate the whole body, and thus
preserve TO posterity the noble Inca
ments of those whose estates cut suf-
ticiently well to allow the expense.
First the body is embalmed, after
which it is dipped in bath of nitrate
of silver. 1t comes from this bath the
color of polished silver After that the
face is subjected TO regular electro
plating dip, and comes out FURNISHED
copper, ready to be preserved TO the
latest generations. In order to insure
perfect success, the face is vanished,
and this is the last operation The
FURNISHED copper face is then war
ranted to remain the same for centur-
les, if treated with reasonable good
care.

20 the Repnbiie Of MEXICO.

someIhing About CIeveIand's Minister
10 the Republic of Mexico.
Isaac Pussy Gray, who was recently
appointed to the Mexican mission, was
born Of Quaker parents at Downing
ton, Pa. in 1928. His father moved to
New Madison, Ohio. There Isaac
Pusey Gray grew up and there he mar
ried Miss Eliza Jaqua. The young
couple in 1855 took up their residence
at Union City, which, although partly
located in Ohio, is always spoken of as
an Indiana town.
He began life as dry goods clerk
He studied law, was admitted to the
bar, ana soon acquired large and lu-
crative practice.
When the war broke out he was made
a Captain in the Fourth Indiana cav
airy. In 1868 he was discharged on ae-
count of i'll health.
At the outset of his political career
Mr.. Gray was Republican. He ran
for Congress as Republican in 1866
and was defeated by George w. Julian.
Two years later he was elected as a
Republican to the State Senate. in
which he became the Republican
leader. President Grant appointed
him Consul to st. Thomas in 1870, but
Gray would not accept the place be,
cause he disapproved of Grants policy.
In 1872, on the same grounds, he re-
fused a denomination TO the State Sen
ate.
Mr.. Gray was delegate at large
from Indiana to the liberal Repubu.

Greeley. He refused in 1874 to accept
the Democratic nomination for the At
torney-Generalship of Indiana.
Indiana supported ex-Gov. Gray for
the Vice-Presidency in the st. Louis
Convention in 1883, and last year he
was talked of as a possible Democratic
candidate for the Presidency. When
Mr.. Cleveland's denomination was as
sured Mr.. Gray's friends advocated his
nomination to the Vice-Presidency. In
1876 Mr.. Gray was elected Lieutenant
Governor on the Democratic ticket
with Blue Jeans" Williams, who de-
feated Benjamin Harrison for Gov

piratiou of his term and Gray held the

Wcrlomen are putting the finishing
touches on the White Horse lima re-
produstion of the hosiery made
famous by Dickens stories. II stands
near the elevated road in the south
end Of jackson park and close to the
agriculture and assembly hall.
The inn Is TO be the terminal point
of stage line from the city to the
Exposition. The coaches, of English
pattern, drawn by four-horse teams,
will land their passengers along the
boulevards and through Washington
park to the grounds, where they will
find English maids serving the sub
stantials and drinkables that are sup
posed to be peculiarly British.
Over the main entrance of the inn is
the old sign of the original house-a
life-size figure of a white horse. A
wide hall leads into a square court
around which at the second story runs
a rustic balcony. On the left is a bar
on the right the restaurant and directly
back is the kitchen. In both bar, and
restaurant are large, brick fireplaees
with figures from Dickens works over
the mantelpiece.
The second floor is cut up into small
rooms for private parties, and tables
will be placed all around the balcony,
which commands a beautiful view.
Aside from the figures over the fire
places there will be but little decora-
ton. The woodwork overhead in the
rooms has been stained a very dark
color in imitation OF oak An inner
court extending to the top of the build
ing is to be used asan indoor refectory.
A near neighbor of the inn is an old
windmill with wide tapping sails,
queer weather-stained uprights and a
general touch of Holland about ii that

1t often happens that when the mas

agehe has little occasion to repeat it,

was to be punished for disobedience,
and the crew lurked about the deck to
learn what would be done with him.

Holland is a land OF wind-mills, but of
all the mills the Blocker mill is the
most famous, not only for its age but
from the fact that it was the starting
point'of fame and fortune for family
whose name it bears.
The entire structure - taken down
and is now being put up again just
back OF the agriculture annex. The
mill is make OF wood, and so hard has
it become with age that it is almost
impossible TO drive a nail into It In
architecture it is very quaint. The few
pieces of machinery used are primitive
in their design, but so substantially
made that it seems good for another
century or so. The hub of the wheel
on which the long arms are fastened is
a heavy block of wood almost as hard
