Eccentricity In Literary Taste.

Curious whims are occasionally shown
by readers at the Public library. There
was a woman who regularly every Fri
day came for a volume of sermons. She
did not mind whose sermons, nor what
the subject, so long as they were reli-
giOus d~iscOuTses Of some sort. Monday
she would come back, return the ser
mons and take out a novel to unbend
her mind until the next Friday, when
the sermons would again be in demand.
There was another oma who would
never read anything but a religious
novel, as she called it, not such a one
as "Ben-Hur" OF one with a particular
religious tenet to inculcate, but a book
with a clergyman as its chief character.
Swinburne's ''Heavenly Arcana'
was read daily for years by an eccen-
trio old gentleman. He would draw
the book, keep it two weeks, return it
with his place marked and call early
the next morning to take it out again.
He never took any other book from the
library, and finally died, leaving his
place marked as usual. There is one
old man who will never read a book
written by a woman. He reads good
books continually, but will have moth
ing to do with a volume bearing a wo-
mans name as its author.-BOstOn

Counterfeit Coins.

Within the last few years numbers OF
forgeries of extremely rare coins in the
British museum and in private collec-
tons have been sold by auction in Lon
don. So good is their execution that ii
seems probable that means have been
devised for casting steel dies on plaster
casts or of hardening e~lectrotype dies.
The manufacture of rare siege pieces, "
carried on in one of our midland towns,
shows a far lower amount OF skill.
When genuine but defaced coins are
restruck with new impressions, it Is
very difficult to discover the fraud.
Some genuine ancient coins are surfrap-
PEGS in this manner-as, for instance; a
whole class Of Jewish coins which are
struck on Roman silver denarii. But
when the image and superscription of
William III can be discerned underly-
ing the device on q rare crown piece of
Elizabeth the question of its authentic
ity is soon acknowledgements Maya

A Weird Love Story.

THE strangest test Of will power and
endurance eyer made, said E. D. Con
sauls Of the City of Mexico, at the
Southern, twas in Mexico, the charac-
tiers being a Mexican girl and an Amer
lean man They were lovers, and the
girls parents refused their consent to
the union, insisting that she should
marry a wealthy Mexican sutton. At
the suggestion Of the girl they agreed
to die together, and to test the strength
and endurance Of each others love
they chose a means Of suicide unlike
any ever dreamed of before. Food
and fruit were placed on a table in the
center of a room, occupied by both, the
girl having escaped from her home, but
being unwilling to elOpe with her lover.
1t was agreed that they should starva
to death with plenty before them, and
should either sucCumb to nature and
partake of the food then both were re-
leased from the bond Of death, but there
should be an everlasting separation. For
- days they endured the pangs of hun
ger without a murmur or a thought of
wavering from their purpose to die TO-
geCnor. Inc tWellLu udy lHe ldthel VI
the girl discovered her whereabouts,
and breaking the door they were car
ried out, too faint to stand alone. 1t
took them several days to o their
strength, and when they did they were
married. This is 4 true statement, and
the American is living with his Mex
lean wife today."-St. Louis Globe

The Law of the Jungle.

The law Of the jungle, which never
orders anything without a reason. for
bids every beast to eat man except when
he is killing to show his children how
to kill, and then he must hunt outside
the hunting grounds of his pack or
tribe. The real reason for this is that
man killing means, sooner or later, the
arrival OF white men on elephants, with
guns, and hundreds of brown men with
gongs and rockets and torches. Then
everybody in the jungle suffers. The
reason the beasts give among them
selves is that man is the weakest and
most defenseless Of all living things,
and it is unsportsmanlike 10 touch him.
They say, too-and it is true-that man
eaters become NANCY and lose their
teeth.-Rudyard kipling in st. Mich

One of the Paine Anecdotes.

A volume could be made of the good
stories in which the venerable Henry
w. Paine, who ended his long life here,
is the central figure. Mr.. Paine IN
douLtedly knew more law than many
of our judges. He himself had declined
a seat on the supreme bench of his native
state of Maine and again when Gov
ernor Bullock rendered him the sUcces-
sion to Chief Justice Bigelow in Massa-
chusetts. But he was not arrogant OF
his learning, and it is only as illustrat-
ing his perennial humor that the story
is told Of him, how, when seen reading
a lawbook on a street car, a friend
said, what! Mr.. Paine, you reading
law" Bless your soul, no. was the
reply; this is not law; it is a volume

THEY DEFY IMITATION.
Invention Can supply NJ Substitutes For
Thalebone or Teazel.

hhalebone or TeaZel.
With all our boosted labor saving
machinery and modern inventions there
are numerous articles entering into the
economy of manufacture which seem
crude and simple, but which defy i'm
provement.
No one, for instance, has ever been
able to find a substitute fer w~halebone.
With the diminution of the supply and
the enormously increased cost of the ar
ticle, scores of inventors have turned
their attention to the article and at
tempted to supply a substitute, but up
to the present time nothing as durable,
tough and pliable as whalebone has re-
suited.
Another article without which no
woolen manufacturer could prepare
certain goods for the market is the tea
Eel. 1t is absolutely essential in rails
ing a nap or cassimeres and soft wool
en- fabrics, and although scores of imi-
tation teazles have been invented none
is found to give the satisfaction of the
odd little burr, with its stiff little
hooks, which is SO extensively exported
and cultivated for the cloth finishing
trade.
Persons who have never seen a teazel
can imagine a fur cone, set all over
with little barbs. It is really a burr,
or flower head, or thistle top Of the
plant ~dipsacus, and so identified is it
with cloth dressing, and SO long and SO
general has been the use of the teazel
for the purpose mentioned, that it is
even reflected in its botanical name.
Dipsacus fullOnum, or''fuller'steaZel."
However familiar the teazel may be
to persons familiar with wooden manu-
faCture. or to those who live in cOun-
tries where it is extensively cultivated,
the fact remains that the great major
ity Of persons have never heard of such
an article and will be astonished to
learn in what enormous quantities they
are raised.
In France alone 5000 acres Of land
are exclusively devoted to the cultiva-
ton Ct the teazel. French manufac-
turers use annually nearly So, 200, coo
worth Of the prickly heads and export
during the same period upward Of CO.,
600 tons, valued at So, 500, 90. When
AZ - SoI4S1SS1SN 611dG q ISoAS& NSASAo AOS
more than an ordinary burdock, the
vast quantity exported can be realized
in part.
In addition to the French crop, which
is the most highly esteemed, teazels are
produced In enormous quantities in
Austria, England, Belgium, Poland
and the Crimea. Until recently they
did not grow satisfactorily in the Unit
ed States, but now they are quite ex-
tensively grown in Oneida county, in
this state, and possibly elsewhere, and
it is said return a fair profit to the cul-
tivator for the outlay Of money.
The prickles of the teazel have a
small knob at the end, and this mount
ed on an elastic stem, and set with
great precision on the central spindle,
which, revolving, claws the surface Of
the cloth, raises a nap which mechan-
ical contrivances have always failed IN
eQua!ing.-~New York Herald.

A LIVING MUMMY,

carved face | can scarcely guess. She
looked no more living than seaweed
does, dried and stretched on paper. Her
arms, her legs-thrust almost into the
fire-were sc shrunk that the long
leathern flesh and faccid muscles hung
round them like dangling shreds on
sticks.
Round her neck were beads Of
wood, and round her wrists Ieathern
bracelets-though, to be sure, [ cannot
feel certain they were not folds Of skin

he had often killed his man, but more

AN ERRING BROTHER.
Suicide of a Despondent Mason at Lit
tie Rock, Ark.

~ r s
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Nov. S0.-Despon-
dent over business troubles and believing
that he could be OF no further use In the
world, Stewart F. Howie, this morning,
after making elaborate preparations and
writing letters directing the disposition of
his mortal frame, walked to the river front
and with a revolver ended his life. Mr..
Howie came to Little Rock five weeks ago
to bid on the military post for the firm Of
Lipsett G. Gregg. of Sault Ste. Marie Mich.
His bid was s111,167 several thousand from
the lowest. Knowing that his firm would
not get the contract he still expected that
it would be awarded to Kelley, of Leaven-
worth, in which event he hoped to get
the superintendency of the work. He also
contemplated bidding on the Camden gov
ernment work, but he was too late. This
i'll luck worked upon his mind. The suicide
left two letters; one addressed to his hotel
room mate, giving directions in regard to
the disposal Of his personal effects. The
other letter was addressed to Col George
Thornburg, Master Magnolia Masonic
lodge. He asks that Col Thornburg take
pity on an erring brother and give his
body decent burial He was a Maccabee
and member of the Methodist Church.

NO SLUGGING TODAY
POLICE sUPERINTENDENT BYRNEs
ISSUES A FOOTBALL ORDER.
He Says No Brutality Will BE Permit
ted I'm the Great Yale-Princeton
at Manhattan Field.

NTW YORK, Nov 30-Police Superin-
tendent Byrnes announced to-day that no
exhibition OF brutality will be permitted at
the Yale-Princeton football game at Man
haitian Field tomorrow. Mr.. Byrnes in
structed Inspector Conlin to stop the game
if it proved to be anything but purely
scientific contest. The superintendent said
he would not allow the players to act lihe
a lot of prize fighters and possibly MAIN
each other for life. The game will be
stopped at the first exhibition of brutality.
The members of the football teams will get
no official notification from the superin-
tendent of his intention. The superintend-
ent argues that IL the players brutal
they are law-breakers and therefore liable
to arrest. If action Is taken by the police
and resistance is offered, the enthusiasts at
Manhattan Field may witness some whole
sale arrests. A police official who said that
he expressed his opinion only as citizen,
stated 1T was his belief that there was not
the slightest chance OF the game being in
terrupted and said that the superintendent
was making 'grand-stand play"
The football enthusiasts in the vicinity
of Wall street did not take much stock
In superintendent Byrnes's alleged inten-
ton of stopping the game tomorrow. They
talked the matter over during the luncheon
hour. and the general opinion was that
there would be no necessity for police in
reference. A good many experts of the
game said that if the police were 20 be
the judges as to the roughness Of the play
ers they would not be capable to determine.
and. likely as not, would make serious er-
rors Of judgment.
A dispatch from New Haven, Conn, says:
Yale men. when shown the dispatch re-
garding superintendent Byrnes's order, rid
iculed it, and said they guessed there
would be free fight If Byrnes tried to en-
force his order. The coach and men said
it was too trivial to receive notice.

DIpHTHERIA sERuM.
Anti-Toxine to BE Soon Manufactured
in This Country.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 3o.-The officials of
the Marine Hospital Service were, to-day,
notified that leading firm of manufacture
ing chemists at Detroit, Mich, is making
preparations for the manufacture of anti
toxine, the new remedy for diphtheria,
which has created such widespread inter-
est in Europe. This is believed to be the
first house of its character In the United
States TO begin experiments and already it
has taken active steps to scientifically DEM
onstrate its value. 1t is understood that
this firm has established a meteorological
department where the experiments will be
carried on under the direction of compe-
tent scientists. Healthy young horses have
already been inoculated with the toxine
but it is expected that it will be three or
four months yet before the result of the
experiments can be announced, the pro-
but tedious The strength of the toxine OBJ
tanned from the culture OF diphtheria ba-
cilli and the strength of the anti-toxine
is ascertained by experiments upon mice
and guinea pigs In Germany, two houses
and i'm France the government, at the
Pasteur Institute under the direction of
Dr. Houx. have taken In hand the manu-
facture of anti-toxine on a larger scale,
though not by far SUFFICIENT to meet the
and for experimental purposes. No other
country seems to be taking any definite
steps toward the manufacture of anti-tox-
ine although several governments have set
aside funds for the purchase of the SUBJ
stance, TO be used in public institutions.

ESTATES WERE MYTHS
TWO MEN CONVICTED IN ENGLAND
FOR swINDLING AMERICANS.
Evansville, Ind, Men Appeared I'm
London as Witnesses - Ridiculous
Stories of Fabulous Wealth.

LONDON, Nov. 30-The trial of James
Frazier jacques and Howell Thomas,
charged with fraud in connection with the
claim to the Townley estates, which has
been in progress for three days, has re-
suited in verdict of guilty against both
defendants. jacques and Thomas were sem
fenced to twenty months. each, imprison-
ment at hard labor. Thomas, on July 2,
last, was sentenced to five years penal
servitude, after having been convicted of
obtaining money by false pretenses and
forging documents in connection with the
case. A number of witnesses, including four
business men, Of Evansville. Ind, William
E. French, Charles E. Scoville, Samuel G.
Evans and Herman Engle went to Europe
to testify against the swindlers. Jacquess
victims in the United States are said to be
numbered by the hundreds and it is added
that they are to be found in cities all over
the country. Colonel Jacques had relatives
in Evansville, Ind, and that was one of
the places where he told his distressing
story about the mary millions which he
claimed were wrongfully held by the Brit
ish government from American heirs. Dur
ing the course OF the trial, Sir A. X. Steph-
enson, the treasury solicitor, testified that
there was not $70000,000 or any other sum
in the treasury resulting from the Townley
estate.
