The metropolitan millionaires would
have been delighted to hear that the
president had vetoed the tariff bill car
rying the income tax rider. Still, as
they have considerable time to save up
enough small change to meet this adj
ditional charge for being on the earth,
they can economize or follow the Astor

Colonel J. NJ. Covington of Danville,
Va. has had peculiar experience or
two with his eyes during the past three
weeks. One morning he awoke to find
that during the night the light had
gone out from his eyes. He could dis
tinguish people moving about and build
ings, but that was all. He had to hire
all amanuensis and have his correpond-
ence read to and written for him. This
continued until yesterday afternoon,
when he took from his pocket an i'm
portant letter he had received from his
house and from force of habit glanced
at its contents. He leaped to his feet in
joyful surprise, for he discovered that
the sight had been restored He could
read every line as easily as he ever
could. He picked up paper and found
he could read it also, even TO the small
est type used in the advertisements He
was the happie.t man in Quincy last
night. -Quincy Herald.

Vose has shipped 10, 600 pounds OF choice
birds to various city markets in year
some of which went as far west as Gin
cinnati.
These New England turkey raisers
have peculiar method of preparing
their fowls for market. They never de-
capitate bird. They make small III.
cision in the fowls neck and bleed it
to death. Neither do they scald turkeys,
an operation that takes off not only
feathers, but patches of skin, but inva-
riably pick them dry. The effect is that
the bird has a clean, pink, sweet look,
without blemish on his fair exterior,
which is in striking contrast with that
Of western turkeys
A year or SO ago, however, Pennsyl-
vania poultrymen in the region of Phil.
adelphia became acquainted with the
Nutmeg process and copied it extensive.
~, all example which has been adopted
in these middle states and has had the
effect of diminishing the industry some
what in Connecticut.
AS North Stonington is undoubtedly
the banner turkey town of the country
so L. Main of Swantown Hill is the
crack turkey raiser. His product has al.
ways ranked high in the region in which
he lives-a wild, ragged and remote
country in the shadow Of high Lantern
hill Last year cascade of unexpected
and coruscating glory tumbled on L.
Main. The fame of the delicious North
Stonington turkey penetrated into the
royal kitchen Of her imperial majesty
Victoria, and word was sent to large
poultry house to procure a 40 FOUNDER
for the imperial Christmas dinner.
Farmer Main got the order with all
the suddenness rural mail transporta-
ton permits, and in less than week
had dispatched his best corn fed, grass
hopper fattened and dry picked bird to
New York for Queen Victoria. He got
$l3 for the fowl, and all Swantown Hill
is still talking of the feast Victoria Re-
gina must have had on the Jim Dandy
turkey Of the town.

There is no doubt that Jimmy Nc
Nally, the king Of the green goods men,
Is in town. He was in Martins the 9th.
er night with "a very pretty girl he call
ed Nellie. Sam Martin did not know
him, or it is probable he would not have
been there. McNally was pale and cold
and quiet, and as usual sober. The girl
was flushed and bright eyed and garru-
lous with wine. Her fingers were cover.
ed with diamonds, and her hair sparkled
with the gems. \ big diamond heart
sparkled at her corsage, and an i'm
mense sunburst blazed at her belt.
McNally was drinking apollinaris.
The girl was drinking wine. Two
glances would not be necessary to tell
where McNally got his secretiveness
and craft. His eyes are deep set and
fathomless; his face pale with the pal
lor of opium. With his mustache off be
would look something like Riley Gran
nan, the plunger They have similar
facial characteristics, and it may be
that their incompatible nerve lies in
this very peculiarly Of square jaws and
masklike faces.
McNally looks like cynic. AS the
flushed girl chartered and talked he sat
and listened with an Indifference that
amounted TO carelessness. The hand
that carried his glass to his lips was as
steady as rock, Notwithstanding his
years Of dissipation and danger. He
pulled his Egyptian cigarette with the
oir % 80 he tpa H.
" the girl in hitching her chair back
from the table caught one Of the points
of the big diamond sunburst against the
edge and in an instant the jewels were
spraying down her gown and over the
floor in a silver shower. She did not
faint Or weep or get excited as other
women would have done. She simply
leaned back in her chair and laughed
low, childish laugh that was full Of sim
cere amusement In the meantime the
walters were diving under tables and
chairs for the scattered Jewels They
were speechless with eagerness. McNally
never moved, and it is probable that
his heart did not throb an iota the
faster. He pulled away at his cigarette
with the same marble impassiveness
One by one the diamonds were brought
to the table, and for each one Nellie
gave the lucky waiter dollar. Three
were still missing, however, and could
not be found.
ooh, let them co." cried the girl.
Jimmy will buy me some more. Won't

McNally nodded his head affirmative.

Held by Fish While His Child Drowned.

William Cooper Of Fisher went dsh-
ing for muskellunge yesterday, taking
his 4-year- old daughter along He hook
ed big muskeliunge. He could not
hold the fish until it opened its gills,
and then Cooper thrust hand In on
either side. The insides Of muskel-
lunge's gills are lined with little, sharp,
bonelike protuberances, and the instant
Cooper inserted his hands the fish closed
the gills, and Cooper could not with
draw his hands.
a fearful struggle ensued between the
man and the fish, in the midst Of which
q swish Of the fsh's tail knocked the
little one overheard. Cooper was unable
to get free, and he saw the child drown
before his eyes. He finally released one
of his hands and killed the fish with q
hammer. Today he came here for treat
ment and told his story. His hands are
much swollen and poisoned by contact
with the gills, and the doctor says it
will be a week or two before he regains
the use of them. The muskellunge
weighed about 80 pounds, according to
Cooper's story. Rogers City mich

THE VANDERBIL1S.
The King of the Gossiping Dudes Freely
Discusses q Family Affair.

u
1t is now said that Mrs. Willie K.
Vanderbilt is coming to New York to
open the Fifth avenue house and will
give at least one big ball to introduce
her daughter Consuela to New York So
ciety.
What will poor Willie do then?
1t is known among his friends that
he intends to come home this winter.
1t is also known that he does not in
tend to live with Mrs Willie.
Must the master of many houses 60,
then, to hotel, like an ordinary trav-
eler?
I don't attach much Importance to
the town house story, and Mrs. Van.
derbilt is certainly not foolish enough
to introduce a very young girl to society
when she herself is under a cloud and
people are saying that her husband S
family won't speak to her.
That last is another stat. Mont that
won't hold water.
Mrs. Willie K. hasn't done anything
to deserve snubbing from the Wander
bits Of all people,
1t was her husband who left her and
not she him. All the influences Of the
Vanderbilts have been directed toward
a reconciliation, and certainly to snub
the injured would not be conciliatory.
AS matter Of fact, nobody knows
anything about this couples plans for
the best Of reasons. They don't know
themselves.
Some day they may come together,
talk it over, and for the'sake Of the
children" that time worn patch guilt,
they may agree to let bygones go
hear it on the best Of authority that
there is no idea Of q divorce in any con.
tingency. - Cholly Knickerbocker in
New York Recorder.

FINE CHRISTMAS TURKEYS.
rhe Best Ones Come From Rhode Island
and Connecticut.

ana OOnnectlCut.
The best turkeys for the New York
city market come from Rhode Island
and Connecticut. The Connecticut fowl
has blooming reputation for juicinesS,
and there are game flavor to the flesh
and a piquant quality pervading the
Nutmeg turkey that are wanting in the
foreign product. Another reason why
the Connecticut turkey is so highly
priced is because the Connecticut butch
er better than any other understands
the art of sticking turkey. Long ex.
perience and experiment have made him
as perfect in the use Of the knife as the
most skillful surgeon.
The towns in eastern Connecticut and
western Rhode Island are breeding
places Of famous gobblers Westerly Is
the great shipping point for the farmers,
and the fame of the North Stonington
bird is proverbial among poultry han
oilers.
Horace Vose Of Westerly has supplied
the Rhode Island markets for number
of years and has furnished annually
the Thanksgiving turkey to the White
House table.
Mr.. Nose remembers the turkey that
was selected for General Grant, which
was ordered by the late Senator An
thony. 1t was the largest one ever ship
ped from Westerly to Washington and
weighed, when dressed. 36 pounds.
President Harrison's birds We're gifts Of
United States Senator Nathan F. Dixon
of Westerly.
The methods by which Mr.. Vose Sc
cures his turkeys and prepares them for
market are interesting. During the year
he makes agreements with farmers re-
siding as far east as Cross Hill, in the
town Of Charlestown, R. l., as far west
as New London, Conn, and north to
Voluntown and Pendleton Hill. a day
or two before the time Of shipment at
Thanksgiving and Christmas the birds
are collected, and when delivered they
are all dressed and ready to pack Mr.

THE TESLA CSClLLATOR.
The Young Montenegrin's Invention and
What Is Claimed For 1t.

What Is Claimed For 1t.
Tesla's latest invention, the 'osci!-
lator, is one Of the most remarkable
appliances Of the age 1t is aptly de-
scribed as being the core Of q steam en-
CINE and the core of a dynamo, combin-
ed and given q harmonious mechanical
adjustment. This combination consti-
tutcs machine which has in it the po-
:entiality Of reducing to the rank OF old
bell metal half the machinery at pres
ent moving on the face Of the globe. 1t
NAV come to do tie entire work OF the
engines of an ocean steamship within
small part of the space they now occupy
and at fraction Of their cost both OF
construction, and operation. 1t will do
this work without jar or pounding and
will reduce to minimum the risk OF
arrangement or breakage. There IS
nothing in the whole range Of mechan-
ical construction from railway locomo-
tives to stamp mills, which such an In
vention may not revolutionize.
The essential characteristic OF the
machine is the application Of the pres
sure of steam to produce an extremely
rapid vibration Of bar Of steel or pis-
ton, which in turn is SO adapted TO a
set of magnets that the mechanical
energy of the vibration is converted IN
to electricity. The extraordinary result
is that practically an absolutely con-
slant vibration is established, and q
power is attained greatly beyond that
obtainable in the most costly expansion
engines using similar amount Of steam.
Besides saving in mechanical friction
the 80 per cent CT loss in the working
of the engine, the Is per cent Of loss by
belt friction and the 10 per cent wasted
in the dynamo, making altogether an
addition Of 60 Per cent TO the available
energy obtained from the steam for the
purpose Of producing electricity, it is
simpler, smaller and lighter than the
mechanism it is destined to replace, alb.
solutely constant in its action, automat-
ically regulated and subject TO the least
possible amount of wear and tear. The
utilization of this machine in any branch
Of industry would result in an appre-
ciable lowering in the cost Of produc-
ton, and it is quite possible that its
first general employment may be in
electric lighting In the face Of this
marvellous invention recent statement
Of Tesla seems hardly no longer vision
airy. The young Montenegriu said, II
expect TO live to be able to set u machine
in the middle Of this room and move it
by 10 other agency than the energy Of
the medium in motion around US. -

The Ashes Of Peleg.
In the year 500 a. D., while work
men were engaged in trenching the salt
mines IN Prussia they unearthed tri-
angular building in which was a col.
umn of white marble. AT the side of
the column was tomb of freestone and
over it 4 slab Of agate inscribed with
these words, which were in Latin:
Here rest the ashes CT Peleg, grand
architect of the tower Of Babel. The Al.
mighty had pity on him because he be-
came humble"
