wILDE-QUEEN SHERRY. 2.
Some Facts About the Notorious Eng
Iishmen Who Are QuarrclinE.

From the New York World.
Oscar Wilde has passion for noto-
riety beside which the yearnings in that
direction of the lamented p. r. Barnum
and the Iamentable Thomas Dixon are as
passing whims.
1t would not surprise some of his ac-
| quaintances if he had brought about the
conditions under which he now seeks
the punishment of the Marquis of Queens
berry for the purpose of bringing himself
into the bright glare of publicity, even
to the extent of suffering under the nau-
seous suspicion that the present circum-
stances entail. There are plenty of people
who believe that oscar Wilde wrote The
Green Carnati ton" even though he is held
up to ridicule, and even to obloquy in its
clever pages; and, as it is some weeks
since he has produced a play or published
an epigram he is about due"
Oscar Wilde and the Marquis of Queens
berry are, perhaps. as well known by repu-
taton in America as any two of our Brit
ish cousins. The aesthetic young gentle
man with long hair and knee breaches,
who came over here a dozen years ago and
made an ass of himself and us, at ex
pense of 10000 pounds to us. with a CORES
ponding gain to himself is not the Oscar
Wilde of London ana to-day. He is no

As the Gilbertain satire described him

London crowd where he is not known
than any other correctly dressed man in
L. J., Il "a
yesterday is "a husband living on the
most affectionate terms with his wife
and two sons" 1t may further be said
that he still remains lion 10 fashionable
London society and that it is admitted
universally that the aesthetic movement
organized by him is responsible for the
vast improvement in interior decorations
in England. as well as for the better taste
English women have developed in the
matter of dress during the last ten or
fifteen years.
, Oscars most recent public quarrel be-
fore the present one with Queensberry
was with the distinguished author OF
THE Gentle Art Of Making Enemies"
James Mcneil Whistler. Oscar had been
accused in private by Whistler Of borrow
ing Whistler's ideas about art, to which
Whistler neatly retorted:
The only thoroughly original ideas /
ever heard him (Whlstler) express have

self"
When he found himself soon after again
neglected by the newspapers Wilde or
ganized a movement as aesthetic mega
lively in it's nature as the worship Of
the sunhower was in a positive sense.
This movement was to oppose the expos
ure of raw meat to the public gaze in
butchers windows and shops as having
a degrading and coarsening tendency upon

A HUMAN LAMP.
The Experiment OF California scien-
fists with an Unusual Subject.


From the San Francisco Chronicle.
A paliid young man. who looked as If
he had swallowed an aurora borealis.
filed the lecture room at the Cooper
Medical College with a glow worm effect
the other night. d. A. Abrams, professor
Of pathology was showing how an mean
descent lamp will light up the human
stomach in the interests of medical
science.
The pale young man, It seems, is a rum
inant, but does not possess the split hoof
of animals of that species. According
to the professor, the subject could throw
his stomach around like a muscle dancer
and would amusc himself at intervals by
demonstrating his victutls, after the man
ner of the goat But as the subject was
not feeling well he was excused from Civ
ing an exhibition In this line.
When ready for the performance the
professor first inserted a telephone wire
into the youth and listened to the tumul-
tuous throbbings Of his heart. He next
inserted a tube and flooded the subject s
interior with water. This distended the
stomach and increased the area Of the
of the Illumination which was produced
by means Of a small electric light at the
end of wire. The current was supplied
from storage battery. After the sub
iect had swallowed the lamp the gas was
turned on, leaving the room in total dark
ness.
Immediately thereafter the youth
frightened up amidships like a switch
signal I'm the distance With a red and
green light inside Of him the subject
could have given a fair imitation OF a
tug boat coming through the fog. The
professor explained that with the aid Of
the light the presence Of cancers and tu-
nors on the anterior walls Of the stomach
could be easily detected. with the on
ward march Of SCIENCE the concealment
of such things is no longer possible. All
a man need DO is to swallow an electric
light and thus find out what ails him.

Fishing Parry

On the Fourth of July in order TO
kill the monotony of every day life n
party of young folks drove to Mel
ser's Dam to fish. The party con-
sisted of Misses Nettie Marks, Lib

G. AmiG, Charles f. Mensch, Francis
Gilbert, j. G. Weiser, j. n. Thomp-
son, and Geo. w. Wagenseller.
The party was conveyed to the
fishing retreat by Clarence Graybill.
Fishing evidently was only the
nominal object of the party. The
ladies took with them well filed
baskets to whose contents no one
hesitated to bow in humble submis-
sion. The amusements were both
varied and numerous and what
was not thought of in the line of en-
tertainment was not worth consid-
ing. Jay Weiser posed as a cavalry
man, Jerome Thompson as manager
of the side show, and the toboggan

pleasantly aud the outing was voted
a complete success.

We do not profess to be able to

impossible. Our sole aim is to re.
view the underlying principles of
elementary education, to give, il
possible, wider range Of vision,
intellectually, aud to practically ap.
ply the ideas aud conceptions of our
greatest educators on teaching an Il
school government. Our hope is
that in the discussions arising from
the consideration of the various
branches great entbusiasm and love
for the teachers profession may be
aroused; stronger motives for bet.
ter service created, and greater
zeal for the intellectual and moral
prosperity of the public schools OF
our county, happily realized.
