CAPTURED BY BRIGANDS.
Baron ArrigO's Adventure in a Secret
Cavern in the Apennines.

The trial of the brigands who carried
away Baron Arrigo from Naples some time
ago is now proceeding at Trani, and the
other day the baron recounte1 his adven-
lures before the court, says the New York
Herald.
The most interesting part is his stay in
the mountain cavern. 1t was running with
water, and he begged to be taken away, bat
his captors refused, and he was obliged to
stand continually, the ground being 80 " et,
and there being not even a stone to sit
upon. At last, overcome by fatigue. he lay
down and slept profoundly for four hours.
At dawn he felt himself pulled by the legs.
His Keeper had awakened him. going away
Immediately afterward. Arrigo as soon as
II was quite light, went toward the en-
trance Of the cavern, and not having eaten
anything for forty-eight hours prayed Il
brigand who stood there TO give him some
food. The man ordered him to be silent,
saying that In the evening he should have
what he wished.
A week passed. and one day, on wednes-
day, the baron was told he would be al
lowed to go next Saturday. That night he
heard two of the brigands talking. One
said the money had arrived, but it was very
little. and the other replied:
Never mind. If only it has come"
When Saturday came Arrigo had taken
no bread for two days. and said to his Jail
erS:
nave not eaten because THIS evening L
am to go away"
The brigand replied that it would be bet
ter to eat. for he would not get away that
night. Arrigo was attacked with strong
fever, besides which he believed he would
in the end die OF famine, for the brgan1s
had no money, and he himself no change.
He had managed to conceal note of ,O0Of
having given 300f. to George Bruno the first
day.
Another week passed, and when Wedues-
day came again Arrigo asked to see Laz-
cara, but was told that he had gone away
with some others to divide the ransom.
They were also going to SHOW themselves"
in the village. On the Saturday aftera BON
the baron asked if he would be releas ID
and was answered in the affirmative. To-
ward o'clock his guardian came and took
away all the objects in the cavern, among
other things the cap and jacket of a car
bineSr. Then ArrigO was led out, and tried
to determine the situation of the cavern in
which ne had SO long been confined. When
night fell the brigands led him down the
mountain. and soon as they reached the
plain told him to go in front and they would
ands remained behind.
When Arrigo finally reached The town Of
Termini he found his wife in an almost
dying state and all his relations worn out
by anxiety. He was told that OF the 12O.WOf
ransom 2O.DOf. had gone to the priest
named Quattrocchi for "camorra,' and
1O,OOOf. to the priests brother Pasquale for
the expenses of preparing his release.

Java, the land of the famous and much
exaggerated Death Valley has many
wonderful curiosites in the shape of or
astrological geological, geological and bo-
tsnical oddities. chief among the latter, ac-
cordng to the st. Louis Republic, being the
Kali Nujah" or death plant" 1t grows
only on the sterile soils of the volcanic
regions of Java and the adjoining islands.
and is even there reclloned as a curiosity
on account of it's extreme scarcity being
rarely met with even by those having a
knowledge of it's haunts and general char
acteristcs. 1t grows from two and one-half
to three feet in height. with long, slender
stems, well protected by stout thorns nearly
an inch in length. The ground leaves are
of a delicate satin-like smoCthneSs heart
shaped, emerald green on one side and
biCcd red streakei and Veined with light
buff on the other The flowers of this
death-deallng beauty are even more beauti-
full than the plant itself teing very large
and cup shaped, and of color almost
deathly in its whIteneSS. The name Of the
plant is from a characteristic of these
splendid flowers, which. beautiful though
they are continually drip with a deadly
poison. This poison, which is distilled in
the bottom Of the cup-shaped blossom, has
the sickening odor of chlOroform intensified
dozen fold, it being powerful enough to
overcome a full-grown man in a few sec
onds. even when inhaled in open air. The
perfume, II such a pungent oGOr can prop
erly he so called, produces insensibilty in
the form of commissions diStOrting the face,
especially the mouth and eyes, into a hor-
rid. craZy-looking grin. Recovery from the
effects of inhaling this Odor is said to be
very slow and to be followed with violent
headache, ringing in the ears and some
times even partial or total deafness. 1t is
said that Mrs. Madison Black Of Savannah,
Ga, owns the only plant Of this peculiar
species ever brought alive to America.

Advanced ideas find a harbor in Homo

erly speaking, there is no tramp prob

now support and will continue to sup-
port the tramps. Should the great, stu
pid. good-natured public keep on doing
this at its own cost and annoyance with.
cut any compensation from Weary
Walker himself? OF course not. A
etone yard or other corral prayerfully
and energetically dedicated to tramp
activity along some line of useful en-
