A sOmNAMBULIST'S FEAT.

A remarkable case Of somnambu-
ism occurred IN Lancaster, Pa,
early one morning. when the 49,
year-old son of Robert J. Evens lett
his bed in his night dress, opened
door, climbed upon the balcony rail,
let himself down on the roof of an
adjoining outkitchen. He swung
himself clear of the roof of this build
ing and clutched the limb of a tree.
He slid to the ground and then scaled
a fence. entering the premises of
neighbor. He raped loudly on the
door, awakening the family. He
was sound asleep and almost frozen
to death when taken into the house,
and it took quite little while to
thaw him out.-GSt. Louis Globe

LITERARY NOTES.

Richard Harding Davis has writ
zen two short stories Of cosmOpoli-
tan life i Tangiers and Egypt,
which will appear in early numbers
of Harper's Magazine. These stories
are the result OF studies made during
Mr.. Davis's recent Mediterranean
Journey, OF which he has already
told the public IN his volume. The
Rulers of the Mediterranean"
Among the most useful as we'll as
attractive extra inducements"
issued by periodicals of late are the
engraved portraits of Washington
Irving and Henry w. Longteilow,
which are to be given away with the
issue of Harper's Young People for
February 27 next This method of
advertising is common enough, but
1t is seldom that q paper combines
real value with such plan. Every
school house and every girls and
every boys home will be improved
and decorated by one or both of
these carefully engraved, authentic
p jrtralts.
The secret of the great success of
The Cosmopolitan IS not so hard to
find, il one looks carefully over the
number tor February. A story by
Valdes, the famous Spanish novelist,
The first from his pen to appear in
any American magazine, is begun in
this number. Arthur Sherburne
Hardy's story, "a Rejected Manu-
script" is charmingly illustrated by
L. Marold, who we believe makes
his first appearance in the magazines
on this side of the water. A pro-
tuselv illustrated article on the de-
signing and building of a war-ship
appeals to the interest taken by all
in the new navy, and thrilling
description of naval combat under
the significant title: The Meloban
and the Pentheroy" describes, after
the manner of the Battle oil Dorking,
possible sea-hght, the outcome of
which is watched by the entire ma
val world.
The Review of Reviews for Febru-
airy Is strong in all its departments.
In the Progress of the World" the
important political, social and in
dustrial events of the month are re-
viewed aud their significance clearly
and frankly set forth. This depart
snent alone contains fifty timely illus
tratiOns, chiefly portraits OF we'll
known men and women. Among
the portraits are those OF P resident

THE FORT PAYNE SALE.

The people engaged so zealously IN
financial rainbow chasing at Fort
Pavue, Ala, a few years ago can
now figure up results definitely.
Fort Payne was the earliest OF the
series of boom town" >che mes, into
which millions of dollars OF Vermont
money went that if it had been in
vested at home might have made the
state blossom with prosperity. No
doubt the place has resources and
advantages and in time will justify
the hopes that investors had of 1t.
The trouble was that spectators fool
ed outsiders into believing that the
progress of generations was to be
made in as many years, and appar-
emily ended by foOling themselves in
20 the same belief. They discounted
the future for about century, and
marked up values accordingly.
Then in specula ting among them
selves they marked up some more
and the end was what 1t always IS.
Or course large amounts OF money
have been made by somebody. The
bulk of the money that has gone
INTO the place has been simply
wasted, but as always happens a
few have lined their pockets at the
expense of the "suckers."
w p. Rice, formerly Superinten-
dent o. our states prison, was the
head figure of the BOOM" as he
had before been OF similar one at
Kansas City and was afterwards at
other places. He and his associates
organized what they called the Fort

the coal and iron company stock In
Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and
Connecticut at $25 per share of 500,
realizing a clean ST 100000 which
was taken in a lump sum TO Fort
Payne. Afterwards they sold 10000
more shares at $37 each, or $37O.-
900. Then they raised 100000
more on bonds with a blanket mort
gage or trust deed. They also real
zed immense sums from sales of
town lots, while water-works, ho-
tells, railroads, sewer systems, fur
naces, rolling mill and all accoutre-
ments of a commercial and manufaS
turing city were put in partly with
the company money and partly by
floating securities, until the private
and corporate expenditures reached
an aggregate of So, 100000.
The coal and iron company's ex-
DenditureS amounted, as it is claim
sd, to 100000, and all that it
represented, the whole property of
the company, was sold at auction
asst week by the receiver, into whose
hands it went wear ago last July,
for lust 100000. 1t was only done
after long resistance in the courts,
ending a few weeks since in the fed
eral supreme courts.

The Sense OF Exhaustion that Paine's

HeHtIy ureS-- The Experience OF Mrs
Butler as She Tells it.
There are many weary mothers and
tired young women who never have
enough nervous energy to carry them
through the day.
sense of exhaustion comes from pro-
tracted indoor labor. the absence of pure
air and sunshine.
To meet the needs of these spendrhrifts
ofnerve force and vitality, Paine's celery
compound has been prepared. New
strength, new life and new health come
to the whole system.
Paine's celery compound is the result
of the lie long study and experience of
one of the ablest physicians of his day,
Prof. Edward E. Phelps, NJ. D., l.. L. D.,
of Dartmouth college,
His experience was one of the largest,
his scientific knowledge surpassed that
of any practitioner OF this generation.
Prof. Phelps first prescribed Paine's
celery compound. the remedy that gives
strength to the weak, that makes the
sick to be well, that gives food to the
nerves, that enriches impoverished blood,
that cures rheumatism, kidney COM
plants, liver troubles. and all diseases
that arise from an impaired nervous
system. the remedy that is incomparably
the greatest IN the world.
Thousands it has made well. Here is
what Mrs. E. d. Butler of Cleveland,
Ohio, says: Il have used Paine's celery
compound for headaches and it gives
immediate relief. 1 had used several
kinds of headache drops and powders,
and at last tried Paine's celery COM
pound which helped me at once. l think
it is the best remedy for the nerves that
l ever tried, and | have used several
kinds"

FAMOUS BUILDING CURVED.

Private letters received from
American travellers in Asia reveal the
curious fact that the great mosque
of Damascus was burned several
weeks or months ago, but the
Turkish authorities kept the knowl-
edge OF it's destruction from reaching
the outside world. The mosque was
one of the most famous buildings in
the world and of great antiquity. It's
interior dimensions were 431 by 125
feet In the centre was dome rest
ing on four massive piers. Under-
meath was a cave in which the head
OF John the Baptist was said to be
preserved in a golden casket. The
mosque had three minarets, one OF
which was $50 feet high, and upon
it, according to Moslem traditions,
Jesus was to have descended on the
day OF judgment.

the prosperity of the laboring man
does not depend on these men who
rend their shout OF praise, but upon

Cochran, ''is that every conclusion
which the American people have
reached in their history upon any
great question has sooner or later
come into direct conjunction and
