CRAZED ENGINEERS.
Instances In Which Unavoidable Accidents
Have Unhinged Mems Reason.

The strange antics of a crazy engi-
neer at Alton, Ill, recently suggest the
fact that insanity is very frequent
among railway employees. Two dra-
matte illustrations may be mentioned.
There is living in New Jersey not far
from Philadelphia, says the Philadel-
phia Times, a man who for many years
was the foremost passenger engineer
between New York and Philadelphia
on the Pennsylvania railroad. He ran
all the specials and best trains and in
ten years never had an accident. One
night in the CLEAN of the headlight he
saw a woman. He had only time to see
her hands raised and to hear her cry,
and before he could put his hand upon
the lever he felt a jerk under the
wheels and knew that all was over.
Since that night he has never been on
an engine. For months he did not sleep
and later became practically insane,
but only on the one point of seeing and
hearing the woman his engine killed.
Now he goes about harmlessly and
aimlessly, but he has to be kept away
from railroads, and in his fretful sleep
he awal<es with cries and paroxysms of
horror. The other case is that of man
who was conductor of a train on the
Camden & Amboy, whose train had an
accident. He came out all right him
self, but it proved so upon his mind
that one night he left his home, and,
going to the point where the accident
occurred, threw himself in front of a
passing train, receiving injuries from
which he died.

EARLY CIRCULATING LIBRARIES.
The Popular Institution Has Reen In Ex-
istence for Hundreds of Years.

The Popular Institution Has Reen In Ex-
istence for Hundreds of Years.
From time immemorial, says All the
Year Round, booksellers shops have
been the favorite resort of all touched
with the love of letters, and in the
days gone by, when the art of adver-
Using was practically unknown, it was
only by frequenting the shops where
books were sold that possible pur-
chasers were able to learn what was
going on in the publishing world, to
know what new books were in course
of publication and to hear and ex-
change the latest literary gossip.
These early book lovers, one may be
quite sure, would be certain to while
away many leisure hour by sam
ping" the ware on their hosts coun-
tiers, and would read, or at least dip
into, many volumes besides those they
actually purchased for more leisurely
consumption at home. And hence
might arise, very naturally, the custom
of formally lending out books to read
for a monetary consideration. Thus, at
the end of Kirkmans "Thracian Won
Ner, puDllSneO III 1OOls inc bOOhSSllSr
makes the following announcement:
IF any gentleman please to repair to
my house aforesaid they may be fur
nished with all manner of English or
French histories, romances or poetry,
which are to be sold or read for rea-
sonable consideration" 1t is not quite
clear from the last few words whether
the books might be taken away to be
read, or whether the reading was to
be done in the booksellers shop. But
that books might be taken home is ev-
ident from the remark of a character
in Nevile's Poor Scholar" printed in
1862. "Step to a booksellers" he saws.

When you have got them to your study
invite your father to your chamber,
show him your library and tell him you
are twelve pounds out of purse for
those large volumes" This was an in
genious way of getting around the ''re-
lieving officer" but it is doubtful, after
all, whether the lending system was
put into practice to any great extent

CUNNING OF THE COYOTE.
Not Afraid to BE Near a Man Whom He
Knows to BE Unarmed.

Knows TO BE Unarmed.
The barking habit of the coyote is
very doglike, and his old name of bark
ing wolf is very appropriate. When
collecting mammals in Wyoming, says
a writer in st. Nicholas, it was a very
common thing for us to hear the coy
otes around our camp set up a great
barking in chorus at the first sign of
daybreak, just when the BOOSTERS be-
gin to crow on the farm. 1t is a wild
and uncultivated kind of bark, ending
in falsetto howl, and resembles the
cry of the jackal of India more nearly
than any other sound | ever heard.
But Sir Coyote is cute. He knows ex-
actly the distance that constitutes fair
rifle range, and he knows just as well
whether the stranger is armed as does
the stranger himself. When hunting
in the Shoshone mountains in 1889, 1
wanted to kill coyote for a special
purpose, but never once succeeded in
getting fair shot, even at two hun
dred yards. For ten days we banged
away industriously at every one we
saw, but never touched hair. Finally,
at Corbett's ranch left the expedition
and started north by stage, leaving be-
hind me rifle, revolver, knife and even
scissors. Just two hours after 1 had
said good-by to my shooting irons and
taken the blackboard STAGE" we saw a
coyote ahead of us, close to the trail.
Seeing us coming, he selected soft
spot, sat down within thirty yards of
the trail and waited for us. We drove
up, stopped as we got opposite him,
and still he did not run. That villain
sat there coolly without moving a mus
Gle, but with leer that plainly said:
Now, doA't you wish you had your old
gum" When we got through making
faces at him and wishing for gun or a
revolver or even a common stone to fire
at him, we drove on, and then he got
up and went hunting for jack rabbit.
To this day have been puzzling over
the question: How did that crazy
rascal find out so quickly that both the
driver and were totally unarmed?"
That he did know it perfectly well
have no doubt whatever, for no coyote
ever waited like that for man with
gun.

MUSHROOM DRUNKARDS.
The Fungus Used in Asia and Scotland tC
Promote IntoNicatiOn.


Promote IntOXicatiOn.
The inhabitants of the northeastern
part of Asia use a mushroom to pro-
mote intoXication. 1t is known, says
the Chicago Tribune, as the t1ly-blown
mushroom. and is also very abundant
in Scotland. The fungus is gathered
in the hottest part of the year. and Is
then hung up by a string in the open
air to dry. Some are dry before gath
cred, and these are stated to be far
more narcotic than those artiticially
preserved. Usually the fungus is rolled
up like bolus and taken without chew
ing; for, if masticated, it is said to dis
order the stomach.
One large or two small fungi produce
what is looked upon as pleasant state
of intoXication for one day. The effect
is the same as that produced on taking
a quantity of spirits or wine, except
that it is delayed from one to two hours
after the bolus is swallowed. At first
it produces very cheerful emotions of
the mind. 1t renders some persons eX-
ceedingly active, and it is stimulant
to muscular exertion; thus, if a person
affected by it wishes to step over a
straw or a small stick, it impels him to
take a lump sufficient to clear low
hedge or the trunk of tree; it keeps
those fond of music perpetually sing
inc. and under its influence talkative
person can neither keep secrets nor
silence for any length of time.
