Ono Of the Unknown Quantities.

There are many persons who talk very
learnedly about electricity and seem
to fancy that they have found out all
about it that is worth knowing. In the
face of ideas of this sort comes on an
accident without precedent indeed, one
that under ordinary circumstances
would be counted impossible. A work.
man in oiling the machinery of small
electric fan-one used merely for the
purpose of cooling the air in a business
house-accidentally touched the wire
and was instantly killed. The current
that runs the fan is said to have scarce
" power enough to give gentle shock
when touched. An electrician who has
recently been making some important
experiments has demonstrated that by
using electricity in certain way 30
times the current usually employed for
executing criminals may be passed
through the human body without inju'
ry. Is it not possible, then, that very
weak currents under certain conditions
may possess power hitherto unsuspected

A VETERANS VERDICT.
The War is Over. A Well-known Sol.
dier, Correspondent and journal
list Makes a Disclosure.

Indiana contributed her thousands Of brave
soldiers to the war, and no state bears bet
ter record in that respect than IL does. In
literature 1t Is rapidly acquiring an
enviable place. In war and literature
Solomon Yewell, well known as q writer as
"sol," has won an honorable position; Dur
ing the late war he was member OF Co. M,
I'd. N. Y. Cavalry and of the 18th Indiana In.
fantry Volunteers. Regarding an important
circumstance he writes as follows:
Several Of us old veterans here are using
DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine, Heart Cure
and Nerve and Liver Pills, all OF them giving
splendid satisfaction. In fact, we have neve!
used remedies that compare with them. OF
the Pills we must say they are the best COM
bination OF the qualities required in q prep
aration of their nature We have ever known.
We have none but words OF praise Tor them.
They are the outgrowth OF new principle In
medicine, and tone up the system wonder. os;Is !.

PENGUINS FEEDING.
The TRANSFORMATION That Takes Place When
They Enter the Water,

The Transformation That Takes Place When
They Enter the Water.
The appearance Of the keeper, with
his pail of live gudgeon, is the signal
for sudden and intense excitement in
the cages. The penguins wave their lit
tie fippers and waddle to the door,
whence they peer eagerly down the
wooden steps leading to the pool. The
cormorant croaks and sways from side
to side, and the darters poise their snaky
heads and spread their batlike wings.
At the waters edge the penguins do not
launch themselves upon the surface like
other waterfowl, but instantly plunge
beneath.
Once below water an astonishing
change takes place. The slow, ungainly
bird is transferred into swift and bril-
liant creature, beaded with globules Of
quicksilver, where the air clings to the
close feathers, and flying through the
clear and waveless depths with arrowy
speed and powers of turning far greater
than in any known form Of aerial fight.
The rapid and steady strokes of the
wings are exactly similar to those Of
the air birds, while its feet float straight
out level with the body, unused for pro-
pulsion, or even as rudders, and as lit
tie needed in it's progress as those of a
wild duck when on the wing.
The twists and turns necessary to
follow the active little fish are made
wholly by the strokes of one wing and
the cessation of movement in the other,
and the fish are chased, caught and
swallowed without the slightest relaxa-
ton of speed in submarine fight
which is quite as rapid as that of most
birds which take their prey in midair.
In less than two minutes some 30 gud-
geon are caught and swallowed below
water, the only appearance of the birds
on the surface being made by one or two
bounds from the depths, when the head
and shoulders leap above the surface fol
q second and then disappear.
Any attempt to remain on the surface
leads to ludicrous splashing and confu
sion, for the submarine bird cannot
float. 1t can only fly below the surface.
Immediately the meal is finished bott
penguins scramble out of the water anc
shuttle, with round backs and dropping
wings, back to their cage to dry anc
digest. Spectator.

CHAPTER XIX.

CHAPTER XIX.
THE LION AND THE CUR
Maxey's first impulse was to call as
sistance, but the discovery that Mr.. Dye
had not wholly lost consciousness deter
red him. BY the aid Of wine, which he
was able to procure without exciting
any suspicion rs to the use he would
mako of ii, he succeeded in resuscitating
the stricken man. After swallowing the
contents of several glasses Mr.. Dye was
able to sit, or rather to recline, upon the
sofa and to speak. His first dread was
of the portrait. His first utterance was:
"Turn the accursed thing away from
mep'
Maxey moved the easel, but even then
the faded eyes would occasionally wan
der in that direction with look Of un-
easy suspicion, as If he more than half
mistrusted that it was able to turn back
upon him of its own volition.
The somber Dye was utterly crushed.
The theatrical air and oratorical -four
ishes, which even in his most earnest
moments he had never wholly forgotten,
had vanished, but the despair in his
face was deeper than ever.
He asked Maxey to draw the center
table, on which had been placed the de-
canter of wine, closer to him that he
might reach it without assistance. FIRE.
quently nervous tremor would shake
his whole frame, and then he would
seize the glass and swallow mouthful
with the desperate energy of a man who
was fighting his last fight. Meanwhile
he talked rapidly, tiercely, like one in
delirium.
"Why do you have that here? Why
was it necessary for you to scare me to
death? You certainly could suspect moth
ing. You told me that she drew that
face. / should have seen through the
humor of that joke. Ha, ha, ha! Bright

NATAL AUTOGRAPHS.
The Sign Manual Of the Child That Doe.
Not Change In Life.

Inc cl4n AAnuai OF the l.lllu Ln3l Doe9
Not Change In Life.
There is born with every one of Us
and continues unchanged during our
lives an unfailiDg and ineradicable mark
or marks, which absolutely distinguish
each one of rs from every other fellow
being. These physical marks never
change from the cradle to the grave
This born autograph is impossible to
counterfeit and there is no duplicate Of
1t among the teeming pillows in the
world Look at the insides Of your
hands and the soles of your feet; closely
examine the ends Of your fingers. You
see circles and curves and arches and
whorls, some prominent with deep cor
rugations, Others minute and delicate,
but all well defined and closely traced
pattern. There is your physiological
signature.
Run your hands through your hair
and press finger nails on piece of clear
glass. You see all the delicate tracing
transferred-not two fingers alike; even
"the left hand knoweth not what the
right hand doeth." They are distinctly
different. Even twins may be so little
different in size, features and general
physical condition as to be scarcely dis
tinguishable, yet their finger autographs
are radically different.
In fact, in all humanity every being
carries with him on his baby fingers and
his wrinkled hand of decrepit old age
the identical curves, arches and circles
that were born with him. Nothing ex-
cept dismemberment can obliterate or
disguise them. Criminals may burn and
scar their hands, but nature, when she
restores the cuticle, invariably brings
back the natal autograph. Louisville

Mr. Dye glared so at the back Of the
picture that there could be no doubt
that he thought he saw the face still.
Then he uttered horrible oath.
"Aye, grin on, grin on, will you?" he
cried out defiantly. "You can't terrify
me. Not now, not now. I fear the liv-
ing, not the dead, not the dead"
There burst from his lips long peal
Of hysterical laughter.
1t was more than Maxey could bear.
He went out for DR.. Lamar, and when
he had returned with him locked the
door to prevent his wife and sister from
following.
Lamar examined the shaking, COVER
ing wreck upon the sofa, and Maxey,
inpatient of delay in his decision, que
ried nervously:
whats the matter with him?'
II should say he d been drinking too
much. "
SIS that all? J. thought it delirium
tremens. "
"There is not great deal of differ.
ence," said Lamar after listening to
some of Dyes vehement utterances
HE is crazy. We must get him away
from here at once"
"Nop' cried Maxey, che shall not go,
not if you say he is possessed of a
thousand devils. He shall not 60 alive
unless he has told the truth and all the
truthp
''The truth? What does he know?"
HE knows everything. He knows my
wifes parentage. Te knows the secret
of that affair on the sea road. He knows
this face that Annette has sketched, and
if the power remains IN HIM he shall
tellp
Mr.. Dye heard and evidently partly
comprehended these words, for he cried
out:
Fright, Mr.. Maxey, right! Make him
tell! He's scoundrell Make him tellp'
Maxey sprang toward him and seized
him by the arm, as if he would drag
his secrets from him by physical force.
"Speak out now, old man." he said,
"for the time for playing with me is
passed Twill have the truth now. You
recognize the Jews face. Who is the
Jew? What are your relations with
him?''

about the Jew and my relations with
him? Relations is pretty word. I viii

in Maxey's ear. "Humor him. He il

Music Teacher Who Kissed His Daughter

 PHILADELPHIA, Nov el.-In conse- quence of Q brutal beating received three weeks ago at the hands of J. W. Priestly. n well known carpet manufacturer, and a man named Michael Harkins, Gustav Goe- thert. a music teacher and proprietor of a piano store in this city. Is lying at the point of death at his home, l332 Girard avenue
 GOethert had been employed by Priest ly to teach the latter's l2-year. old daugh- ter music. About the first of tho present month. when the child had finished hcr lesson. Goethert complimented her upon her progress and imprinted kiss upon her check. The girl informed her par snts. and Pricstly became angry and de- clared that the music teacher should be punished. On the evening of Nov. l9 Pricstly is said to have gone to Goothert' $ store and upbraided him and boaton him severely. Not satisfied with this rebuke he is said to have returned again a little later with IIarkins. and Goethert was again beaten.
 Dr Connor Of 1915 Girard avenue was called in to attend the wounded music teacher. who was so low that the physi- elan reported the case to the police off cials. Priestly and Harkins were arrested and committed to prison to await the re- suit of Goethert's injuries
