SIX DAYS IN A WEEK.
Very Curious Condition on an Island
in the Pacific

Very Curious Condition on an Island
in the Pacific.
There is a small island in the South
Pacific" said John L. Davis. a vet
eran sea captain, who was at the Lin
dell yesterday, where there only ap-
pear to be six days in the week. This
extraordinary phenomenon is brought
about by the location of the island
Travellers around the world are ac-
quainted with the fact that time is
lost while travelling east and gained
while travelling west, the difference of
time in transatlantic journey alone
being about four hours | had to run
in to Chatham Island once when dis
aoled, and was amused to see the way
in which the people accepted their
fate in regard to the jumping of time.
This little island is just on the line
of demarcation between time and
dates. In order to keep right with the
remainder of the world it is necessary
to skip from noon on Sunday to noon
on Monday every week in the wear
and hence the joke that it is possible
to spend the whole day at dinner with
out eating an average meal The is
land is so near the antartic region that
days and nights are altogether mixed
up from the idea of an ordinary in
dividual. but this plan of jumping the
afternoon of one day and the morn
ing OF the next so as to keep in line
with the almanac is something so ri
d1culous that none but seafaring man
can appreciate it, or understand the
necessity. '-St Louis Globe-Democrat

HOOKING COOKED FISH.

"a great deal of fun was enjoyed in
Congress last month" said Clarence Scar,
of Salt Lake city, who was among last
nights arrivals at the Lindell, "over the
statement that in Yellowstone lake an ex
pert angler can catch trout and boil it
without taking the fish off the hook Wild
as the statement seems, it is absolutely
correct, and | have done it myself more
than once. There are in the lake several
small basins containing boiling springs.
although the water in the lake itself is al
most ice cold. Trout abound in every part
of the lake. and a man can, by standing
on the rocky ledge around one of the hot
springs. catch a trout with a line and
transfer the fish, hook in mouth, to the
hot spring behind him. 1t will die in a
few. seconds. and be fairly well bnled in
half an hour. The number of anglers who
have actually caught ard boiled fish in
this almost miraculous manner may not
be very large, but there are at least a
hundred reliable citizens with whom / am
acquainted who are prepared to make
atfidavit that they have done so, and thai
the statement made in Congress was not a.
mere fishing yarn.'-Globe Democ1,at -

in which this and other dramas were en-
acted, the performances beginning at day

cal audiences. So great was the estima-
ton in which the "Prometheus Bound

been forbidden. =

WHICH WILL 1T BE:

When will it be? Which will it be?
Is there joy or sorrow in store for ME
Will my life go by as Il beautiful dream
Each day be blessed with the sunlight S
CLEAN.
Will blessings be spread all along my way,
Making this life a beautiful day
With only sunshine and never rain,
With only happiness, never pain?
Or will it be trouble, and sorrow, and care,
Will my earthly burden be hard to bear?
Will my path be strewn with thorns, not
flowers,
And long and weary the coming hours?
All. if in the future we all could look
And read ii, as from an open book
The lives of some would be joyous and

The lives of others, OH how sad.

And. peace scents over one and all,
These are the thoughts that come to me

An English water witch" ;"

A young man Of the name of Rodweli
in the employ Of the Grinton Coal com
pany in north England, has shown won
derful powers in his occupation as pro-
e-sional water finder" or water
witch" Professor Z. R. Lancaster, the
great English scientist, stated very plain
ly in one of tine journals that he doubted
the attributed powers Of either the
witch" or the "divining rod" with
which he is armed in all professional
operations. This evoked the following
from DIR. Mcclure, the chairman of the
Grinton company: Il deny emphatically
that the lad is an imposter! He has been
tested time and again and has never
failed To locate veins of either mineral or
water. depending upon what the search
was being conducted for. The 'divining
rod which he holds only moves in obedi-
ence 10 the muscular contractions of his
hands and arms. and he can use rod OF
any kind of wood or material, providing
il be what is known as good conductor
of electricity Another oddity about the
lad, and one of which have never heard
in connection with water witching.' i
this: The lad habitual.y walks with his
hands clasped behind him, and as soon
as he steps upon the ground directly over
a mineral or water he is powerless to un-
clasp them until he moves away FROM
the region of the lode or conduit. st

As might have been expected from a
party that robs labor, the proposed tariff
measure contemplates the raising OF
revenue by a system Of fraud, for this
is exactly what the ad valorem method
always has been and always will be
a fraud upon the revenue, fraud upon
the manufacturer in this country and a
fraud upon American labor.
The value of goods in foreign coun-
Try. upon which ad valorem rates of du-
ties are paid, is always an unknown
quantity. The importers here will buy
from the manufacturers abroad so as to
secure the lowest possible prices at the
port of shipment, these being the values
upon which the duty must be paid.
There is no guarantee that the goods
will be correctly valued abroad, and ii
will be impossible for our customs Off
cials to follow all market quotations.
An importer can always claim that
he bought goods abroad below the
quoted market for spot cash, hence ii
will be easy for his invoice to be
fixed" Foreign manufacturers will
be only too anxious to secure our trade
at the outset and to close up our facto-
ries, so that cutting of prices to point
below the value of American made
goods may be regarded as certainty.
In former free trade times this policy
was adopted, and our markets Were
oversupplied. in order to create depres
sion in values and compel our factoriea
to close. Then when the foreign trade
controls the market prices will reassert
themselves, except that our manufac-
turers will never know on what basis
they can afford to make goods. Mean
time American labor can starve or ac
cept foreign wage rates.--American
Economist.

The most iBhuman outrages. outrages which

upon his own system by swallowing drastic
purgatiyes which convulse his stomach, agon-

people constantly do this under the impression
thar medicaments only which are violent in
their action, and particularly cathartlcs. are
of any avail. Irreparable injury to health is
wrought under this mistaken idea. The laxa-
tive which most nearly approaches the benefi-
cent action of nature is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. which Is painless but thorough. and in
vigorates the intestinal canal instead of weak
