Men and Women with Horns.

Horny excrescences arising from
the human head have not only oc-
CURED in this country, but have been
frequently reported by English sur
geons as well as those from several
parts of continental Europe In the
Imperial museum at Vienna, the
British museum at London and the
Vatican collection at Rome there are
fine single specimens or whole collec-
lions of these curiosities. In an Eng
fish local history (''History of Che
shire'O woman is mentioned who
had been afflicted with a tumor on
her head for 81 years. Finally it be-
came greatly enlarged and two horns
grew ont of il after she was past 20
years old. These wonderful horns,
which are each within fraction of
II inches long and nearly 2 inches
across at the base, are now in the IA

ish museum.
In the annals Of the French acad-
envy there is an account Of one "Pie-
tro le Diblo," or peter the Devil, }"
who had three fully developed horns
on his head-two as large as those of
good sized ram, one behind each

long, growing from his forehead

that in 1890 the Republican vote was
88,111; Democratic, 1884; Populist,
5S,514. Now, if sufficient number
of the Democrats were to turn in
their votes to the Populists to defeat
the Republicans it would be Popu-
list and not a Democratic victory,
and the Democratic party would find
itself in worse position than before.
If the Democrats hope for anything
at all they must, and it is pretty safe
to predict that they ultimately will,
go into the campaign on their own
merits, and it is between the Republic
cans and the Democrats that the
main issue will be joined. The Dem
ocrats are beginning to believe they
can carry the state, and in that be-
lief they will probably go into the
campaign without fusion. 1t is for a
contest with straight Democratic doc
trines that tho Republicans must be
prepared. The Populists themselves
have shown an aversion to fusion
that ought to convince wayering
Democrats of the hopelessness of aid
from that quarter. Let them stand

No, sir, you're not what might

oneen Elizaheth,s Gloves.

In copy Of "a Roll of Purchases
For the Tournament at Windsor Park
In the Reign of Edward I" mention is
made of half dozen pairs Of double
gloves costing 35s., and six pairs of
buckslzin gloves for the king, Cos. In
1474 sixpence was paid for the gloves
of the queen of Scotland, whether
for repairs Or as the original cost
when new we are not told, and in
1893 Is. was considered enough to pay
for a dozen pairs of leather gloves for
the king. AS time wore on, however,
the moderate outlay Of the fifteenth
century gave place to an immoderate
expenditure in this article Of dress
alone.
In the book of the royal ward
robe of Scotland $3.50 a hawk glove
is described among other items, "set
with u rubies, Z garnets, SO great
pearls and the rest set over with
small pearls. Elsewhere we are
told that Queen Mary of Scotland's
ordinary gloves were of the gaunt-
let form and embroidered with sill
yer colored silks and small pearls,
and that Queen Elizabeth's gloves
were tse1aal1y of dolioato white kid,
richly embroidered with pearls and
precious stones on the backs of the
hands. Words.

The Only Phrase He Knew.

Sir Andrew Agnew, the last of the
hereditary sheriffs Of Galloway, had
astrong prejudice against the French,
and though often thrown into the so
ciety of Frenchnen plumed himself
on his ignorance of their language.
Once, while journeying to Edinburgh,
Sir Andrew halted over Sunday at
his daughters house and attended
the parish church.
The minister, having given out his
text from the Old Testament, dis
puted the correctness of the author
lied translation. In enforcing his
opinion he quoted the text in the He
brew original, and the words sounded
to Sir Andrews ear as the French
salutation, !'Comment vous porter
vous2"
The sheriff writhed in his seat, and
it was with the greatest difficulty
that his daughter kept him from
speaking out his feelings. But as
soon as the benediction had beer pro
nouneed Sir Andrews wrath e1plod-
ed. TO the amusement of the con-
gregation he roared OUT:
''The scoundrell Yet I might ha'
forgi'en him had he not used the only
French words ever knew Ply Youths

A Famous Ride For KOssuth,s Sake.

None of the obituary writers on
the late Louis Kossuth seems to have
referred to an incident in his career
which must always have a special
interest for Englishmen. This was
one of the most famous record rides
of ancient or modern times, per-
formed by Captain Charles Townley,
a queens messenger, in the interest
of the Hungarian iberators After
the collapse of his cause in 1849 Kos
suth and a crowd of his compatriots
had fed to Turkey, from which Aus
tria and Russia were menacingly de
handing their extradition. But the
''great Eltchi, who was then our
representative on the Golden Horn,
made bold upon his own responsible
ity to back up the sultan in his re-
fusal to deliver up the fugitiyes, be-
lieving that Palmerston, who was
then at the foreign Office, would bear
him out in his firm attitude of oppo-
sition.
Knowing that life and death de-
pended on the speedy arrival of his
approving dispatch at STEAMBOAT,
''Pam" selected Captain Townley to
be it's bearer, with instructions mot
to spare himself or others" in getting
to his destination as soon as possible.
Reaching Belgrade on Oct. 20, Cap
tain Townley there took horse, and
on the morning OF the 10Th he rode,
or rather reeled, into Pera, having
covered the distance of $50 miles in
131 hours-a feat which elected loud
applause when mention was made of
it in the house Of commons.--Pal
Mall Gazette.
Morris tribune., 1894-08-01

ITO fuse or not to fuse. That is
question" says the Dispatch, chat is
disturbing the Democratic soul at the
present time. A certain element Of
the party seems inclined to court
on alliance vote in the fond hope of
hus being able to defeat the Repub-
lican ticket in Minnesota, being will
ing, apparently, to submit to ex-
tinguishment at the hands of the
Populists rather than defeat by the
Republicans. The better element of
the Democratic party, however, is OPP
posed to any such policy, and there
is not the least doubt that the adopt
ion of fusion scheme would throw a
very considerable number of Demo
cratic votes for the Republican candi-
dates. Figures have been quoted in
an effort to show that there is no
basis for the claim that Minnesota
is Republican state. Even were
such claim made it does not clearly
appear how the figures produced can
give much consolation or ground for
hope to the Democrats. They show

1t is not often that a single figure
has enjoyed the distinction Of being
the subject of long study and investi-
cation on the part of a German uni
versity professor. But 1.-THE Num-
Der Nine" is the title of a long and
learned article in Am Urquell by
Professor Reinhold, rector of the
University OF Berlin.
In early times" writes in sub
stance the professor, 1.-THE first I'M
even number (3) and its multiple co.
were considered of special impor-
lance, likewise all numbers which
contained nine. Heather philoso-
piers or Christian mystic writer's, the
legends of nations, the religions of
modern peoples, all go to prove the
holiness or sanctity of the number
nine.
In ancient Germanic life, in po-
etry, in religion and law the number
nine is met everywhere. 1t still has
it's influence in German customs and
German belief. In Scandinavian
mythology we find groups of nine
Walkyries, nine Discs, nine giant
mermaids, or women of the sea; nine
mothers of tho god Heimdall, nine
virgins of the Menglod-Rowja and
nine dwarfs.
In the middle ages nine heroes
were usually grouped together, as is
to be seen on the beautiful fountain
at Nuremberg and the Hauss salon
of the Cologne city hall. In the po-
etry Of the fifteenth century groups
of nine are favored. Proofs of this
are to be found in the festival plays
Nos. SO and AZ Of The Keller collec-
tion and the poem The Nine Poor
Wanderers of Hans Sachs.
There were nine judges in Ice
landic and Germanic law, known as
the mines. In Lucerne there existed
until 1895 the nine men who sat in
Judgment on ordinary police cases.
Nine children were formerly looked
on as the ideal number for family.
Even animals are named in old tales
in groups Of nine In a Grimm fairy
tale nine birds quarrel over the wish
ing cloak. They say in Tyrol, When
nine parents meet, there is witch
among them We also find nine a
favored number for those people who
make sacrifices of human beings and
animals. New York Tribune.

WHY INCENSE WAS USED.
Long Before the Dawn ofHistory the Prac-
tice Was Tnaugurated.

Long Before the Dawn Of History the Prac-
tice Was Tnaugurated.
The sense Of smell, which at the
dawn of civilization was a declining
one, and since then has tended to be-
come less and less of value, would
appear to have little chance of gain
ing an important position in any
branch of human culture. And yet
it came about that one characteristic
Of the exciting cause of odors
brought them into prominence in
the service of religion, and this
prominence has continued in that
connection up to the present day.
Far back in the history Of our race,
at any rate long before the dawn of
history, the apparently immaterial
and, SO to speak, ghostly nature OF
the exciting cause of the sensations
of smell, led, it would seem, step by
step, to the use of incense III the serv-
ice of the gods.
When it began to be felt that the
ancestral or other spirit that had to
be appeased was hardly of a nature
to consume the material food or drink
offered to it to appease its wrath or
to gain its favor, an easy step of rea-
soning suggested that this food or
liquid would be more acceptable III
the form of smoke or vapor. The
gods had become of too spiritual a
nature actually to eat the food, but
they would still require some form
of nourishment. and what could be
more suitable to them than the
fumes of burned flesh. This is the
conception that is prominent, or, at
all events, survives, in the descrip-
lions of sacrifices in the 'Iliad,n
where the thick clouds from the
burning thighs of the slaughtered
oxen and from the fat in which they
were wrapped ascend to Olympus
and cheer the assembled gods. It
was but step from this to the burn
ing of fragrant woods and rosin to
provide a less gross qualification.
Moreover, by the consumption in
their honor of these precious spices
and fragrant gums, obtained at so
much cost and trouble, another mo-
tive Of sacrifice was satisfied.
The Egyptians in the preparation
of their mummies had need of vast
store of spices and aromatics. This
need no doubt was the origin of
their trade with southern Arabia
the land of Punt-a trade which at
tanned to great Importance under the
eighteenth and nineteenth dynasties.
In search Of aromatics there was
also a more northern trade route
which must have brought them into
contact with the Jews later on. The
Egyptians in this respect were far
in advance of the Greeks of Homer.
They burned their incense in cen
ser, using it in a similar way to the
Buddhists and Christians Of later
days.-Nineteenth Century.
