throwing Fisher under the cars. The

limb from his body. The unfortunate

Multitudes of Species.

Professor Bailey has collected many
interesting facts relative to the num-
bers of different species of plants.
There nre about 1000 genera, and
about 100, 900 towering plants which
have been discovered and examined
and described by botanists. The rose
family-which also includes apples.
pears, strawberries, blackberries,
cherries, and over 200 species of the
rose-contains in all about 1000 dis.
tinct species and many thousand va
rieties. There are over 1000 species
OF the lily family, over 1000 of the
mint family, and the oak family num-
bers about 400 species. About one
ninth of all the Towering plants are
included in the composite or sunAower
family. Yet in all these 100, 1000 dis
tinct species of plants, each with it's
own peculiar characters, none is
known to have crossed the line of dis.
tinction between them, but all have
retained their own, although MANY
have produced thousands OF varieties
each.-Chicago Times.

He Would Sell Himself for His Family.

A most extraordinary incident, in
dicative, no doubt, of the desperate
state of mind to which many have
been reduced by the prevailing hnrJ
times, occurred Mt Emergency Hos
pital. A man about forty-fve years
of age called at the hospital and asked
to see the superintendent or physician
in charge. When that functionary
was called and inquired the strangers
business, the man said
"My name is Albert Stoner. lam
q painter by trade, and have family
dependent on me Mt Flint. have been
out of work for a long time, though
have sought it constantly and done
anything and everything that was of.
fered to me, which was very little.
My family are now reduced to very
strnitened circumstances, and 1 want
to sell you my body for S25 for dis.
secting purposes"
The doctor was astonished at the
novelty of the proposition, and said
facetiously that the hospital might
have to wait n good while before the
goods were delivered.
'Not Mt ALL" replied Mr.. Stoner.
Gust MS soon rs 1 find that the money
has reached my family I will commit
suicide and leave an order. that my
body be given to YOU"
If the doctor had been astonished
before, he was much more SO Mt the
last remark of Mr.. Stoner, and began
to suspect that he was dealing with
lunatic. But though he applied the
usual tests in the long conversation
which followed, he was unable to de.
tect the slightest ALTERATION of mind,
except that Mr.. Stoner had brooded
SO long over his inability to provide
his family with the necessities of life
that he had become desperate, and had
lost sight of the fact that he was ask
ing the doctor to become murderer
or murderer's accomplice. Detroit

In a Peanut Factory.

When the peanut arrives at the
factory they are rough and earth
stained, and of oil sizes and qualities,
iumbled together. The bags are first
taken up by iron arms projecting from
IN endless chain to the fifth story OF
the factory. Here they are weighed
and emptied into largo bins. From
these bins they fall to the next story,
into large cylinders, fourteen feet
long, which revolve rapidly, and by
friction the nuts are cleaned from the
earth which clings to them, and
polished, so that they come out white
and glistening.
From thisstory the nuts fall through
shoots to the third and most interest.
ing floor. Imagine rows of long,
narrow tables, each divided lengthwise
into three sections by thin, inch-high
strips of wood. These strips also sur.
round the edge of the table. Each OF
these sections is foored with strip
of heavy white canvas, which moves
necessarily from the mouth of the
shoot to an opening leading down be-
low ut the further end of the table.
These slowly moving canvas. bands,
about foot wide, are called the 'pick.
ing aprons.
Upon the outer aprons of each table
dribbles down from the shoota slender
stream of peanuts, and on each side of
the table, SO close together as scarcely
to have "elbow ROOM" stand rows of
negro girls and women picking out the
inferior peanuts MS they pass and
throwing them into the central Sec
ton. So fast do their hands move Mt
this work that one cannot see what
they are doing till they cast handful
of nuts into the middle division. BY
the time nut has passed the sharp
Dyes and quick hands of eight or ten
pickers one may be quite certain that
it is first-class article, fit for the
final plunge down two stories into
bag which shall presently be marked
with q brand which will command for
it the highest market price.
The peanuts from the central aprons
fall only to the second story, where
they undergo yet another picking over
on similar tables, the best of these tho
second grade. The third grade OF
peanuts, or what remains after the
second picking, is then turned into
machine which brushes the shells and
separates them from the kernels
These are sold to the manufacturers of
candy, while the shells are ground up
and used for horse bedding So no

nut, whichever it may turn out to be,

The Situation

Washington, September 10
The co frmat ~ news received
to-day by Secretary Gresham OF
the d=frat of tine Chinese by land
and sea. with The further notice
that telegraphic communication
between P,king and Corea has
been cut of ~ the japanese, Is
taken here as IN evidence that
the Chinese forces are ID mise
rable plight. The small remnsnt
of an army in Corea Is cut of
from re-erfnrcements by sea as a
result of the defeat OF the Chinese
fleet at the mouth OF the Yalu
river. They cannot communicate
with their own Government by
wire, and as their escape frrm
the Corean peninsula by the
northern overland route is pre-
ventedby the seizure of the noun
tain passes by the japanese their
surrender appears to be inevita-
BILE.
The japanese. therefore. are
now in force on the border and
cast of their enemy, and an early
transfer of the scene of war from
Cores to China is looked for by
army officers, unless the m ove-
ment should be prevented by the
early advent of winter. The
military experts believe that as
soon as the remaining Chinese
Troops in Corea have surrendered
Japan will transport the main
body of their troops by sen from
Ping Yang to the Manchurian
co9t. and making rapid advance
on Moukden, the capital of the
province, will soon be in position
to organize campaign on Picking
itself.
1t is believe here that the
Chinese forces are almost demora
lized. and that the only obstacle
to the triumphant campaign OF
the japanese, apart from the in
clement winter of Northern China
is to be looked for In the inter
ference of the great powers. There
is reason to believe that the
feeling is growing in Eu/pe that
the war bids fair to go beyond its
present bounds unless some infu.
ence is brought to bear to check
it, and some nations having large
interests in China have taSen the
alarm already.
