Cupid Said TO Have Caught the Central
American Warrior.
SAN Francisco, Nov. 21.-General
Antonio q seta has arrived in this city.
He left Mexico ON Thursday, commits
stoned, so the dispatches intimate, to
purchase ammunition and supplies gen.
orally to be used In the event Of war
between Mexico and Guatemala.
II prominent members OF San Fran
cisco society are correctly informed,
however, the general is not in the
service OF Mars, but ON the con-
trary has been lured by Cupid. While
q prisoner in this city he fell o victim
to the charms Of ONE of CALIFORNIA;
prettiest daughters, but his sudden
fight prevented his paying his adj
dresses in proper form. He now re-
turns to complete, il possible, o con-
quest Of the lady's heart. General Ezeta
met her while nominally imprisoned in
the California hotel. The lady, Mrs.
Bessie Paxton. occupied apartments
upon the same floor. "A friendship
sprang through Mrs. Paxton's blind
boy who strayed into Ezeta's room to
hear the soldiers story of fighting.

Deputy Sheriff McGovern and Mar
shall Davis got tangled up with two sus-
picious characters, pretty well bowled
mp, at a late hour last evening, and run
them in, thinking they answered the de-
scription somewhat OF the Colman rob-
bers. Mr.. Bolles was telegraphed to
and with his clerk came up to-day TO see
il they could identity them. But they
failed TO recognize in them the robbers
OF Monday evening. MIR. Bolles says the
men came upon him about o'clock IN
the evening when he was alone and
while his clerk was out, and were masked
on the upper half OF their faces. At the
point OF their revolvers they made him
open mp his treasure to them and when
the clerk came in during the event they
held him up in the same way. After
getting what they wanted they went out
and going to the railroad corral where
they had their horses hitched, rode of to
the southeast in which direction they
we're tracked two miles.
The two men run in last evening are
toughs from Fulda, MINI, by the name
OF Frank Berry and win Sherman, well
known TO many OF the railroad men here
who occasionally have trouble with them
for refusing 10 pay their way ON trains.
The evening OF the robbery they rode
from Fulda to Pipestone where they
were put of by Conductor Buckholtz
about midnight. There they remained
until last night when they came through
with Conductor White and we're rather
b~oisterous. Bowling up after they
reached here, they were just starting out
on q lark when they III into the arms
OF the officers and found q place in the
cooler. They have had enough OF Mad
ison and will take their departure.
Sheriff Fox telegraphs Deputy Nc
Govern this afternoon that he will ar
rive on the 6 p. m. freight this evening.
He does not cay what game he has, but
orders fire in both iails which Deputy
McGovern i~nterprets to mean both Frank
Learned and Nina Parker. As Consta'
BILE Mead telegraphed this morning for Q
warrant OF arrest for Bill Beverly and il
was sent him on the noon train, it is &c
be presumed that he will return with
Beverly tomorrow evening. Thus, ons
by one, the roses fall.

The Name Of Alcohol.

The reservation of the name of
alcohol for the product Of the distil-
lation of wine is modern. Till the
end of the eighteenth century the
word, of Arabic origin signiffed any
principle attenuated by extreme pull
verization or by sublimation. 1t was
applied, for example, to the powder
of sulphuret of anthony (koheu),
which was used to blacken the eyes,
and to various other substances as
well as to spirits Of wine No author
has been found Of the thirteenth
century, or even of the fourteenth
century and later, who applied the
word alcohol to the product of the
disttllation OF wine.
The term spirit Of wine, or ardent
spirit, although more ancient, was
not in use in the thirteenth century,
for the word spirit" was at that
time reserved for volatile agents, like
mercury, sulphur, the sulphurets Of
arsenic and sal ammoniac, which
were capable of acting on metals and
modifying their color and properties.
The term eau-de-yie was given in
the thirteenth and fourteenth centu-
ries to the elixir Of long life. 1t was
Arnaud de Villeneuve who employed
4 for the first time to designate
the product of the distillation
of wine. But he used it not as
a specific name, but in order to mark
the assimilation which he made of it
with the product drawn from wine
The elixir Of long life of the an
Gent alchemists had nothing ia COM
mon with our alcohol. Confusion of
the two has led the historians Of
science into more than one error

Pleasing Novelty in Music.

The world is full of musical talent
undeveloped; more's the pity. Mr..
w. E. Bent, once a famous minstrel,
but now a Chicago gentleman, has
entered a new field and produced a
one-stringed instrument which he
calls the Egyptian monochord.
There is a good deal of music, and
that Of a highly pleasing character,
in one string. People who have
heard Chinese fiddle may be in
clined to doubt this. But to a
Chinaman even that is not an in
strument of torture. He likes it
better than he does our violin. The
moROChord, however, bears no re.
semblanee to anything ever before
employed by musicians OF it and
its inventors performance the New
York Times says:
@Mr. Bent'S execution on this one
stringed instrument is perfect and
its resources astonishing. He pro-
duees tones of great depth and pu-
rity, particularly in cantabiIe pas
sages. His Interviewing of stimuli
taneOus melodies so that each can he
easily followed Is charming; the in
strument most perfectly initiates the
violin, guitar, music-box, violoncello,
either, mandolin and dulcimer, and
when these different effects are pro-
duced the result is unique and pleas
ing in the extreme"

Obscure Prescription.

A prescription written by we'll
known physician in New York re-
GENTLY says the New York Tribune,
gave the following directions; "First
day take three pills at intervals of an
hour; second day take two pills at
intervals of an hour; third day take
one and then stop"
This is certainly obscure, and as a
matter of fact the wording Of the
prescription came near causing
serious trouble The direction for
the third day would be likely, Of
course, to make any one pause to con-
slider what was meant by the whole,
but, if that last direction had not
been given it would have been easy
for some people to interpret the
directions take three pills every
hour during the first day and two
pills every hour during the second
day." What was meant Of course,
was that three pills were to be taken
on the first day. one pill at a time,
with an hour between every pill, two
pms VII UliC oSNOhu udy1 OuC dU u
time, with an hour between each,
and one pill only on the third day.
But there certainly was danger in
the directions to people who were
either not quick to grasp a point OF
were careless in following the whole
meaning. Suppose, for instance,
some one had undertaken to read the
directions on the installment plan,
so to speak-that is suppose he had
thought Sufficient to the day is the
evil thereof" and had considered
that it would be time enough to
study the direction for the second
day when the second day came,
Then he might have taken three pills
every hour for twenty-four hours,
and the coroner could have done the
rest.
But to be serious, it is desired here
to impress upon physicians that no
room should be left for doubt as to
their meaning, and upon those who
read the directions Of physicians pre-
ScriptioHs that they should read the
whole carefully, and then hesitate
il they are in doubt.

Religious BeIiefs Of Au1bors,

will go farther, and say that
know of no other class nor profession
in which religion, such as there is, is
less a matter of form or custom, or
in which it is more based upon in
telligence, sincerity and the desire to
live better and more useful lives,
writes John Habberton in a pertinent
article entitled "The Religious Be
liefs of Authors" in the Ladies H0me
Journal. Few men of any class but
the experienced" cranks are given to
talking of their inner life; but even
were authors to Unbosom themselves
to the world on this subject, their
talk would not convince any one.
Every one, from pastors down, judges
mems religion by their lives, and it
would be impossible, by this method,
to bring an indictment for irreligion
against American authors. The creed
of some individual writer may not
meet the views of some individual
critic, but classes are not TO be judged
in that way.

Saving Crops in Oregon

Farming is business and the crops
must be saved in the far West. A
visitor at the Polk Butler settlement
on Des Chutes Ridge, Ore, a few
days ago, noticing that the school
house was still closed and the fall
term, long overdue, has not yet be-
gun, asked when school would COM
mence. "Not till the wheat gets
dry" was Che reply why, what's
the school to do with the wheat?"
was the natural query. Were dry
ing it in the schoolhouse, was the
explanation. Wet wheat was spread
all over the schoolhouse floor, from
three to five feet deep.
