Robbers sliced to Pieces.

Eleven members of a gang Of robbers
who had been infesting the silk district
of Chelkiang, China, were captured at a
mountain town recently while occupied
in bathing in the mountain stream that
runs past the town. The townsmen
surrounded the bathers, and, having
bound them, set to work to slice their
prisoners piece by piece, in revenge
for the death of some of their towns
men at the hands of the band last win
ter. After the horrible deed was ac-
complished the fragments of the bodies
of the wretched robbers were thrown
into their own boat and it was allowed
to drift down stream. The timidity of
the mandarins, who dared not punish
the robbers for fear of the vengeance
of the rest of the band, was the reason
why the townsmen did not take their
prisoners alive and hand them over to
the authorities

BEES AT ASCOT,

They Made Things Lively at the Race
Track for Awhile.
A curious incident occurred at Ascot.
says the London Telegraph. While a
large number of pleasant luncheon par
ties were enjoying the delights of an
open-air repast in the gardens behind
the grand stand a great swarm of bees
settled down on the guests around a
table in corner. They buzzed and
buzzed everywhere. Ladies had bees
in their bonnets and gentlemen found
their hats turned into striking like
nesses of "Catch-'em-alive-oh's." Some
of the swarm settled on the cold salmon.
and other members of it tumbled into
the champagne cup. In fact, the bees
created the greatest CONSERVATION
among the ladies and gentlemen in
that quarter of the grounds.
They were gradually drawn off the
luncheon party by gentleman, to
whom occurred the happy idea of
treating them to little music on a
metal tray under a tree. After the
tapping or tinlkling on the article had
continued for two or three moments
the queen bee settled on the branches
above to listen to it and was at once
followed by all the swarm. 1t was an
extraordinary signt to see hundreds of
the insects hanging like great black
and gold clusters on the tree while the
tinkling continued. 1t ceased with the
luncheon and the bees did no harm.

(Ffonn the Philadelphia 1imes.)

Lewis d. Blundin was born in al AZ
Bridgewater, Pa, and is now a resilient OF
Hulmevilie same state. he went through
the war as private, sergeant and hospital
steward of Company c. 2Sth Pa. Volunteers.
AS q result Of an attack of typhoid fever in
Ga, his kidneys became affected and this
finally developed into spinal disease, which
lasted through his army service. In '66 he
was mustered out and entered Jefferson
Medical College, Phila., as student from
which he graduated two years later. The
remainder of the story is best told in his
own words: Gtt
One day, after I had graduated, I was
lying on sofa at my home in Manayunk,
when felt cold sensation in my lower
limbs as though the blood had suddenly left
them. When tried to move them / was
mortified at the discovery that was para
lyzed from my hips to my toes. The paral-
ysis was complete and pin or o pinch of
the flesh caused no pain. ] could not move
q muscle l called in DIR. William c. Todd,
of Philadelphia. He made an exhaustive
examination of my ease, and announced
that my trouble was caused by infiamma-
ton of the spinal cord, and that l would
likely have another stroke Of paralysis. /
consulted DIR. /. w. Gross and DR.. Pancoast
of Jefferson College, Philadelphia, and DR..
Morehouse, Of Philadelphia with the same
result

DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.

vertigo after my FIRST stroke of paralysis to
such an extent that when / got out of my
bed my head would swim and had diff
Guilty in saving myself from falling. My
appetite was bad, digestive organs ruined
and no assimilation of food. In addition to
my many other ailments, rheumatism held
a prominent place. BY the time ! had
finished the first box of Pink Pills was
comparatively free from these minor ills.
First one all would disappear, then another
until the pills got to work upon the founda.
ton stones of my trouble-paralysis. Before
] had taken the six boxes of pills, was
sitting in my chair and one afternoon, when
j felt a curious sensation in my left foot.
Upon investigation found it had fexed, or
IN other words become movable, and | |
could move it. From that time on my i'm
provement was steady and 1t was not long
before i was walking around on crutches
with little or no discomfort. 1t was three
years before taking the Pink Pills that bad

HYpNorIzED MIRO s,ckNrss.


! Remarkable Little Girl who Aoas Itte .
Paralytic at Word.
The most astounding instance of hvp-
notism by suggestion comes in report
furnished to the French Society Of
Hypnology and Psychology bv M.
Gorfdichze, an expert in mcsmerism
Thh story he has to tell, says the New
York World, is of little girl of eleven
in one of the French provinces who
used to accompany a cousin, who was
country doctor, on his rounds. and IN
this way got TO understand a good many
medical expressions.
One day she fell i'll. The illness was
slight and she was on the high road to
recovery, when her cousin, the doctor.
happened to say unthinkingly and
smilingly in her presence: "Oh, good
heaveDsl She is paralyzed!" At once
the child exhibited every symptom of
paralysis, and she remained in that
state at the will of the doctor. After
wards he asked her if she was not be-
coming consumptive, and Immediately
she began to suffer from the dreadful
coughing and blood splitting that con-
sumptive patients have.
She seemed SO extraordinarily open
to every sort of mesmeric 'ssuggestionn
that the doctor tried her with half the
diseases known in medical annals, and
one by one she responded to them all.
He needed only to remark that she was
cured to have her perfectly well mo-
ment later. Perhaps the strangest of
the experiences she went through was
when one of her schoolmates got a
paper pellet in her eye. From pure
sympathy the child imagined that she
had the same trouble too, and she
rubbed her eye to such an extent that
she felt the pain of 1t for nearly wear. |

of a rope. The man on the scaffolding
lay face downward and gently swung
the foaming can toward the window
below. Presently two worlmen came
to the window, clutcbed the liquid mes
senger of peace, drew 1t in, took deep
swig from it and carefully launched it
into the air again. The same operation
was gone through with at q window of
the third floor. Then the almost empty
''growler" was drawn rapidly up and
received its finishing touches on the
scaffolding above.
That's right clever way to manage
drink, " said l to the workman below.
"Well-yes; when they drink fair"
he replied, with the air of a man who
had been cheated out of his allowance.
