Poli,s wonderland rneater.

Bonnie Thornton will leave us to- night. Her last appearance at the Wonderland in the daintily, spicy songs that have given so much pleasure dur ing the week, will undoubtedly be the occasion of a great parting manifesto tion. Lillie Western will undoubtedly also be the recipient of much hearty appreciation on the occasion of her last appearance tonight in her bril- liant instrumental speciality. The strong speciality company will also come in for much applause likewise. Next weeks great attraction will be the three Dona- zettas, remarkable trio of European pantominists and gymnasts, who have been a star feature in every theater where they have appeared. Supporting them will appear the beautiful Wash burn sisters, Griffing and Brice, the ju- venile Ferguson brothers, Allen May and many others of like eminent repu- tatiOn.

ENTERTAINMENT.
Hyperion.

In dramatizing Du Maurier's famous novel, "Trilby" Paul M Potter has made little or no effort to do what was for him impossible. Trilby, that idyl of the Quarter Latin, that enchanting romance of artist life in Paris, where in the truth is told and seen only as a poet can tell and see. "The Trilby" of George Du Maurier, which concludes with the brief melancholy and obscure narrative of the subjection of soul by hypnotic suggestion to the will of an evil tyrant, Is turned by MT. Potter into a drama of hypnotism altogether. This is "Trilby" as seen in Paul Pot ter's dramatization; the most remark able play seen in this country since the stage was first used as a medium of entertainment. A splendid company, that of A. M. Palmer will present the play. For grandeur of scenic effect and stage excellence the production of "Trilby" cannot be surpassed. It will be seen here for the first time on Tues day and Wednesday, May 28 and 29, at the Hyperion. Sale of seats opens May

Lightning Bolts.

What produces the electricity in a
thunderstorm? This question, Of peren-
nial interest both to the scientific man
and the ordinary inquirer, can scarcely
be said to be completely and satisfacto-
rily solved. 1t has, however, generally
been supposed that the big drops in a
thunder shower were the result Of cleo
trifoation, for working an electrical
machine in fog causes the minute drops
to adhere together and form larger ones.
But now come developments that rem
der it probable that the big drops are
not results, but causes-at least of part
Of the electricity manifested. When a
drop splashes on a metal plate, the lat
ter becomes electrified, and it is now
believed that every such drop carries
double layer Of electricity, positive and
negative. On the drop these neutralize
each other, but the splash dissipates
one and so renders the other evident
The same thing would happen if two
drops splashed against each other in the
air, as must often be the case, and hence
perhaps by the aggregation of millions
of such splashes comes the lightning
bolt that rends the oak or skaters the
spire. New York Times

Mrs. Tucker, daughter of the late
General Logan, tells an amusing story
Of her fathers experience which he
greatly enjoyed relating about himself.
It was some years before his death dur
ing the most active period Of his sena-
torial career. Taking advantage Of re-
cess following an exciting debate, he
strolled leisurely through the halls and
corridors outside the senate chamber.
One Of the newly licensed guides, mis-
taking him for stranger in the city,
approached and proffered his services to
show him about the building. To the
flow of eloquence poured forth by the
guide General Logan paid not the slight
est attention, completely ignoring his
presence. This, however, 80 far from de-
terring the fellow from further effort.
seemed to spur him on. Following his
victim until the rotunda was reached,
they passed group of veteran guides,
who took in the situation at glance.
One of the boldest called out: lyon

time for on that old Indian? Don't you
know that he has been at work here fer
more than 30 years" Washington

The residents of the upper part of
the village were startled little be-
fore six o'clock Wednesday morning
by that dread cry, fire. 1t was soon
ascertained that it was at the north
village, B. M. wilkins of that place
having driven down for aid. A pair
of horses from the Melendys and a
pair from G. d. Farnum was at once
obtained and were hitched to the fire
engine in an almost incredibly short
time and with the hose cart hitched
on behind away it went over the hill,
and in just l8 minutes from the start
the engine was dawn up beside the
water and the horses detached. See
ing that the distance is three miles
and foot Of snow on the ground this
is unprecedented.

THr BRANDED BABY.
San Frgutisco's Doctor Tried For Mark
Ing Founding and Acquitted.


Ing Founding and Acquitted.
DR. f. N. Griffith of 1850 McAllistei
street, who branded baby ON the 18th
Of December, has boon tried for cruelty
to child and acquitted. Tho circum.
stances of the case ARC still fresh in the
mind of tho public. DIR. Griffith, after
marking the infant ON the thigh with
the letter M and a bar below the letter,
sent it to the receiving hospital In
charge of Daniel McCloskey, a messen.
ger boy. He freely acknowledged that
he had marked the baby so that in some
future time the mother could identify
her offspring At the trial in police
court No. Q DR.. Griffith did not appear
at his ease.
When the accused took the stand il
his own defense. the hundreds of spec.
tators in the courtroom crowded forward
SO as not to lose word Of his testi,
mony. With an effort he recovered his
composure and stated that he had beer
practicing physician since 1876. He
does not believe that the mother of the
baby, who was born on Oct. /, is mar
ried woman.
"Who put that mark ON the baby?
he was asked. Every one listened fol
his reply, which was given in cleai
voice.
II placed that mark ON the baby BY
pricking the skin with cambria needle
Then rubbed wet gunpowder over the
surface, which was moistened by few
drops of blood. Twas requested to mari
the child by its mother, who was obliged
to abandon it. She wanted to be able tt
identify it, so that if in the future sht
should be in position to do SO SHIT
might reclaim it, Invent to drug store
to get some india ink for this purpose,
but as there was none in the store uset
common gunpowder instead. The chilc
suffered no pain" DR.. Griffith the1
quoted medical authority on the nerves
of very young children. He said he gave
the little thing whisky and water ant
sugar to deaden the pain should there
be any. He denied that he had uset
either hot iron or an acid, and thu
operation he performed, he said, wa
not SO painful as vaccination.
The witness added that he had an un.
derstanding with the baby s mother thai
she would give him money to be uset
for the little ones benefit in whatever
foundkng hospital it would find per
manent lodging In this respect the
brand was to serve another purpose. Ii
case the child died the people in the
asylum could not draw the money BY
substituting some other baby. A rela
tive Of the baby was present when tht
tattooing was done. Dr.. Griffith declined
to answer any question bearing upon
the relatives Of the baby, and the courl
did not insist upon them.
Mrs. Amelia Griffith, mother Of the
accused and the principal of the Colder
Cato primary school, testified to having
furnished the cambric needle and beine
In an adjoining room while the bab,
was being tattooed.
The jury was out only five minutes
and returned verdict Of not guilty
DR.. Grifith's friends applauded, and the
baby brander heaved great sigh Of
relief and went away. Francisco

Town History Wanted.
TO the Editor Of the Sitter :

walton in some permanent form the
writer desires the use of your columns
for the purpose of seeking from tile
readers of the SITTER such aid as
theymay be able and willing to afford
in that direction. While he may not
be able to write up in full the history
that should be written, collection of
material may be made that will be of
great value to one who may at later
date accomplish that task. Much
that would be of great use and, in a
measure, indispensable to that end is
fast disappearing or, at the least, be-
coming each year more and more diff
ticult TO find out and establish ION its
true basis. For the purpose of pre-.
serving this material (and possibly Of
preparing such history all persons
who may be able from personal rec
objections to give information about
the early settlers of Londonderry, or
Kent; or who have old documents
that will give light upon any facts in
the early history of the town are
earnestly requested to correspond
with the writer upon these matters.
The loyalty Of every son and daugh-
ter of the old town, however far they
have wandered from her soil, will we
trust prompt to this action.

simply common matches with compo-
sition of the slow fire kind. The mix
ture in the big oval head is porous and
is made of charcoal, saltpeter, powdered
glass, gum and some sweet scented barks
all Of it tipped with the igniting COM
position. These matches are dipped re-
peatedly until the proper amount Of
composition is put on the head Of the

tas, are made by drawing cotton threads
through melted stearin and paraffin.
The wax hardens rapidly on the threads
and is then rounded nicely by being
drawn through holes in steel plate.
The wax threads are cut to the required
length and are then dipped. : Chicago
