lunatics of the county lunatic asylum a
gentleman who was able to produce no
certif cate of qualification in mental dis
eases was happily foiled on March 9th.
Unfortunately the effort of the intelli-
gent guardians of the insane to secure
the election of medical officer who was
able to produce his qualifications also
failed. The latter had the misfortune to
be Catholic and the son of taxpayer
in the district, both of which facts were
fatal in the sight of the Right Hon.

Thomas Butler, and other opponents Of
the spirit that so long made the local
government of Carlow a bye-word

GREAT ARSENIC EATERS.

Australian Women Sacrifice Health and
Hair on tho Altar of Good Complexion.
The majority of the female beauties
of Sidney, according to an English OBJ
server, have peculiarly delicate com
plexions, languid expressions, fragile
physique and die-away look in the
eyes, which are more suited to the en-
ervated temperament of an old civiliza-
ton than the active vitality of new
world. 1t was easy even for a novice
to detect that these ladies owed good
deal to their perruquicr The mystery
of this curious coml nation of pre-
mature badness and unusual delicacy
of complexion was explained by the
fact that these women ate arsenic in
order to produce the aristocratic pal
lor and languor, and found to their
horror that another effect of the drug
was to make the hair drop out. valu-
ing their complexion above their hair
however, they sacrificed the one to the
other. What woman will endure for

JUST THE THING.
Damming the Mississippi River with
Woven Willow.

Woven Willow.
The willows which grow along the
shores of the Mississippi river, says the
Wayerly Magazine, are of no use in the
arts, but when it comes to building
dam the engineers find nothing that
| fills the bill half as well as the humble
willow. 1t lines the shores and can be
easily reached from the barges wherein
it is transported, and it is so soft that
it is easily cut and handled. 1t is
woven into great, long, continuous
mat. One end of this is anchored to
the shore on one side of the chute that
is to be damned, and the process of
weaving is thence carried on straight
across the stretch of water on a pecu-
liarly-shaped boat called grasshop-
per. AS fast as the mat is woven on
the grasshopper it slides into the water
at the lower end of the inclined weav-
ing rack, and it is laden with rocks
and carried straight to the bottom, and
this is continued until the opposite
shore is reached. The mat is then COW
cred to the proper depth, twelve to fif-
teen inches, with rock, and then an
other mat, made in the same way, is
woven and laid down on top of the first
and similarly weighted down, and this
work is continued till the dam has
risen as high as it is intended to stand
the finishing, being always heavy
coating of rock that covers the willow
and all. The willow, always covered
with water and the mud that inevita
bly, lodges among the rocks of the dam,
il kept sealed alright and of course
does not decay. 1t binds the rocks to-
gether and prevents the dam being
showed out of place by ice or disturbed
by the pressure of the current at high
water. 1t is good for no other purpose
save to hold a shore that is washing
away with its roots and for dam con-
struction it is superlatively the thing.

.Irishmen in nigh Position.

1T is not only in the United States
that the sons of Erin have secured a
place among the leaders of the people.
This fact has been called to mind by
the circumstance that while all France
was mourning one illustrious Irishman
in the person of honest old Marshal
MacMahon, the masses of the popula-
ton of Austria-Hungary were acclaim
ing another Irishman, the Irish peer,
Viscount Taafe, who holds the post of
prime minister of Austria, for bring
ing forward bill in favor of universal
suffrage. In Spain one of the most in
fuential military leaders is o general
of Hibernian origin, Organ by name,
who held the post of minister of war
during the former administration of the
present premier; while the queen re-
gents private secretary and most
trusted adviser and friend bears the
name of Murphy. The little kings
governess is also an Irish woman; and
so, too, is the governess of the young
queen of Holland. The tutor of EN-
peror William was an Irishman named
Audanne.

HERR KRupP.
A Rare Instance of Refusing the Con-
ferred Title OF Nobility.


ferred Title OF Nobility.
1t is common thing in Europe fol
kings and queens to reward such o.
their subjects as may become famou!
in war, in polite, or in literature, BY
bestowing titles upon them. Occasion
ally, however, says the Golden Days
this honor is refused, but the instances
! are SO rare that when they do occur
they are always thought worthy Of
mention.
After the late German emperor, Fred
erick Ill, had begun his brief reign,
he determined to raise some leading
representatives of industry and com.
merce to the peerage.
Herr Krupp, the inventor of the
Krupp cannon, at whose mandatory
eighteen thousand men are regularly
employed, had died a short time be-
fore, but his son had succeeded to his
business, and the young mans name
was placed by the emperor upon the
role of honor
When he heard of this, he at once
took train to Berlin and secured an
audience of Prince Bismarck, who was
then chancellor. He insisted that the
prince should ask the emperor to strike
his name from the list, but this Bis
marck refused to do. Then the iron
master made a special plea.
"My father, said he, ''gloried in be-
ing the son of workman, and never
would SO much as listen to proposal
to accept titular and hereditary dis
tinction. / cannot be untrue to his
principles, particularly when my year
of mourning has not yet expired"
Bismarck thought this plea might be
urged upon the emperor, without
wounding his feelings, and he prom
Used to put it before him that day.
Frederick was really dying then,
and could not speak on account of the
disease in his throat When Bismarck
told him what Krupp had said, he
looked surprised and vexed. Then he
seemed to see the matter in new
light, nodded assent and wrote on his
tablets:
Il dare say Krupp is right; he has my best
wishes"
That night Herr Krupp was told that
he was at liberty to remain Herr
Krupp.

DEATH BY LIGHTNING.
a Theory That 1t Is Caused by the Upward
Electric Current.

Theory That It Is Caused by the Upward
Electric Current.
The phenomenon of lightning is the
signal that announces the coming to-
gether of different electric currents in
the restoration of equilibrium. All
life is electricity, the stomach is re-
generator, the brain is a battery, says
the Pittsburgh Dispatch. When one
is killed by lightning, death is due to
absorption-to a loss of this vital fluid,
or whatever it may be termed, that inn
pels the physical engine. A thunder
cloud is charged with positive cleo
tricity, the earth below is charged
negatively. Any object below this
cloud is similarly charged with this
negative current. A discharge from
above takes place, the currents meet,
ignition ensues, the expansion of the
gases produces vacuum, the air comes
together again with report and this
is thunder.
A late view is, when one animate OBJ
ject is struck dead by lightning, that
the upward and not the downward
current is the agent. The fact that no
bird on the wing has been known to
be killed by lightning is not con-
elusive in sustaining this latter view
of the method of lightning in produc-
ing death.
When a tree is thus struck, the sod
is frequently lifted away from the
roots in such a manner as to indicate
the downward passage of the stroke.

The Tragic End of Peculiar Ghost Phe
nomenon.
Innumerable experiences prove tina
all 'ghost stories" have a rational ex
PLANTATION, and that some natural caus
can be found for any seemingly super
natural occurrence. Sometimes it re
quires great GOODNESS and self-posses
sion to remember this, but the effort t.
do SO is worth making, for it may say
life or reason. A striking illustration
of this was the tragic experience of
Dutch painter, named Penteman, VIII
lived in the eighteenth century.
Penteman had a commission whic
required the portrayal of skeletons
death's-heads and other objects in
tended to inspire contempt for th
frivolties and vanities of the time.
In order to have models before hin
he painted his picture in an anatomic
al museum. One day he had been
sketching the CHASTITY objects which
surrounded him, when he fell asleep.
Suddenly he was awakened by al
extraordinary noise. He was horriflee
to see all the death's-heads nodding
and grimacinP. and the skeletons dane
ing about, and waving tn cir feshless
arms madly in the air
Penteman fed from the frightful
scene, and escaped into the street He
was picked UP unconscious and half
dead with fright.
AS soon as he was rational, it was
explained to him that there had been
an earthquake, and that that had
caused the commotion among the an
atomical specimens, but the shock had
been too severe, he died in a few days.

The Most Expensive Book.

The largest sum of money ever given in
exchange for a book was 250, 900 francs,
Fan amount equal to so, 600 of English
money, or upward of $50, 900 in United
States coin. This sum was paid by the
present owner (the German g~OvernNlent)
for a "Missal, " formerly owned by Pope
Leo X, and by him presented to King
Henry VIII of England, along with a
parchment, which conferred upon that
sovereign the title of defender of the
faith" II title which has since been
borne by all British rulers. In the time
of King Charles II the 'Missal" was pre-
sented to the ancestors of the famous Duke
Of Hamilton. The dukes library of rare
and curious books finally fell into the
hands of SOtherby, Wilkinson & Hodge,
London book auctiOneers, VINO disposed of
the relic to the German government in the
manner and for the price stated.
AS long G as 1912 a syndicate of rich
Venetian Jews called upon Pope Julius II
and attempted to purchase from him the
celebrated Hebrew Bible" which is now
kept in the Vatican. They made all kinds
of propositions, finally Offering its weight
