BEANS THAT JUMP.
Something That is Puzziing PhiIndel-
phlans.

phIans.
Neatly tied up in pasteboard hoy
Lum Smith, the publisher, at Frank ford
and Glrard avenues, recently received
through the mails about dozen of most
curious objects, which he has been un-
aDle TO classify. The objects have been
named by MIR. Smith jumping beans
which clearly describes their Character
iStics.
The beans are spherical triangles, and
when three of them are put together thew
form round object which looks much
like hazelnut, and in this fern they un-
doubtedly grew, being covered by pod
or shuck. The popularity of the beans
is that they jump around, and when laid
upon their backs, that is resting upon
the round surface, they will hop and
turn over. They also move forward and
backward and sideways, hardly ever be-
ing still.
Day and night they keep active. If a
person places his hand upon the little
Pile III seems TO affect the beans and thew
VIII not move for some time. If one of
them is held between the fingers a min
ute the pulsatlon within becomes very
perceptible, and if it is held to the ear the
force of the blow may be distinctly heard
Mr.. Smith left one OF the beans in his
yard Tor eight hours. and he found that at
the eX piration of that time it had moved

get away and always to keep on the
move.
The only explanation given by Mr..
Smith is that the shell conceals worm,
and the movement and blow of the worm
makes the bean move.
The stamps upon the package,"' said
Mr.. Smith yesterday, looked as if the
package might have been sent from the
Sandwich Islands, but 1 am not sure.
No communication giving an explana-
ton accompanied it, and none has been
received since. [ have consulted scien-
tific. works and encyclopedias without
getting any light as to what these arti-
cles are or where they grow.
Il have talked with scientists, but

to see professor in Girard College, who,
l am told, may possibly solve the mys-
terry.
Il have written to United States Con-
suls in Cuba and Mexico and / intend to

on the hill overlooking the ravine during
the early part OF the fight, but he got into

OF the trouble-"a little bit of fun.U as he
puts it.

Yes They Are !!

The Gazette recently intimated that
pensions were being restored, &C., and
instanced the case of G. A. Bellies, whose
pension had been reduced from $12 to
Sc per month. They claimed this had
been restored. Now comes Comrade
Bellies and says the statement is false.
He is still getting but Sc per month with
no hopes OF more. With him come two
of his neighbors, VIM. Few and Polk
Long, of Mowrystown, whose pensions
have been reduced from $l2 to So per
month. That's the way the work of
restoration goes on. Everybody with a
grain of intelligence knows that no
Northern soldier need expect favor OF
this administration. Every benefit to
be bestowed is for the South or the
friends of the South. Yankee soldiers
are not in it now.

also prohibits the catching OF any of
these kind of animals with net, trap or

sneak boat. An amendment strikes out
the Monday and Tuesday prohibition
and gives permission to hunt on every
day except Sunday within the days to
which hunting is limited. Another
amendment prohibits the sale OF game
outside the state.

ELEVENTH OHIO CAVALRY REUN.
ION.
A Grand Event In Which Highland
County should Take an Interest.

EDITOR NEWS -HERALD:-I wish to call
the attention of the Highland county
members of the Eleventh Ohio Cavalry
that our first reunion will be held in
Columbus, Wednesday and Thursday,
June Goth and 2lst. Preparations for
the reception and entertainment of our
comrades have been made, and the pros.
poets are that we will have large and
enthusiastic meeting. Over one hun
dred members have expressed their de-
termination coming from seven States,
and it is more than propabe that that
number will be more than doubled
For some unaccountable reason the
Highland county boys have, with few
exceptions, failed to respond to our fro.
quent appeals to them to aid us in max
ing the reunion a success. The home
of the Eleventh Ohio Cavalry is really
in Hillsboro, and it seems strange that
the local members do not take lively
interest in its first organization and re-
union since our discharge, especially
when everything is tending to a ffatter-
ing success. 1t is the desire of many
comrades to hold our second annual
reunion in Hillsboro, but this will not
be done unless the Highland county
members take more active part, and
appear here in a considerable number
on the twentieth of June. The arrange.
ments for the meeting have been exten.
sive and complete. Headquarters have
been secured in the Grand Central
Hotel, which will entertain visiting
comrades at a reduced rate. This is a
first class hotel in every respect, and its
proprietor, Col. Andrew Schwartz, a
gallant cavalry officer in the late war,
understands the art of providing for the
comfort and entertainment of old com.
rades, is taking personal interest in
our reunion and will put forth every
effort to make the visit of our comrades
to Columbus pleasant and profitable
one. The hall in which the meetings
will be held is in the hotel, and the ex-
terror of the building will be profusely,
handsomely and appropriately decorated
in honor of our first reunion.
There is every assurance that the re.
union will be one of the largest and
most enthusiastic regimental reunions
ever held in the State, and all those of
the regiment who stay away will miss
what would have been one of the most
enjoyable events of their lives. 1t is to
be hoped that the Highland county
comrades will take immediate action,
and when the time arrives will report
here with large delegation.
Those desiring further information
can address me as follows,

Attorney General Richards Endorsed

Editor Wilson is out of the race for
Congress in the Tenth District, Having
achieved an enviable distinction as one
of the best editors in Ohio, he ooes not
care to smirch his reputation by going
to Congress- Ohio State Journal
Wilson having labored for others in
this direction for quarter of a century,
modestly submitted his claims for the
unexpired terms of Gen Eno3hs. But
this was not granted and he appreciates
how empty the honor of going to Con-
gress, if it must be contended for
Marietta Register.
In all the Tenth district there is no
abler, better Republican than Ed. Will.
son. For life time, he has been at the
front, battling for his party. No one
had more richly earned the honor than
he. Wilson would have made pure,
patriotic, clear sighted Congressman.
Two years ago he had the nomination,
at one time, within his grasp, but refus.
ed to clinch the matter with the slight.
est suggestion of compromised honor.
1t is such men we need in Congress and
Eds time will come.
After the editor OF the Register declined
the honor of his county's endorsement,
it could have fallen upon no more
worthy shoulders than those of John X.
Richards, Ohio's young and pre- emf,
nently able Attorney General. He has
borne well all the honors heretofore
conferred upon him, and, il nominated
for Congress, will lead the Republicans
to triumphant victory which they will
never see cause to regret "Jack" would
make a splendid Congressman.

As we are patronized by first class
people, all of whom have their own fam

be our best interest, and that of our pat.

explanations necessary; and for the
same reason we do not have our names
printed or written on labels or directions,
