A His tory of Jumbo.

Jumbo was 70 years old and eleven
feet and half high. When 3 years
old he was sold by the managers of lie
Jardin DIES Plantes in Paris to the
managers of the Royal Geological Gar
den in London. 1t was not suspected
at the time that he would make the
enormous beast he grew to be. In
fact Jumbo's greatness did not dawn
upon the English people until after
Mr.. Barnum had bought HIM and be-
gan to advertise him. One of Bar
NUNS shrewd advertisements was q
newspaper paragraph which went the
rounds of the English press, thar after
the Prince of Wales had visited him he
grew six inches in one night OF course,
an elephant that the Prince of Wales
had been TO see must be an elephant
inc hero in the English mind. Then
it was that the stupid Geological man
ayers offered Mr.. Barnum $50, 900 to
cancel tho contract and leave Jumbo
on British soil. The offer was declin-
ed by the American Snowman, but it
served him the purpose of good adver-
tisement In America, so he started at
once for this side OF the water. The
history of Jumbo since he first landed
on American soil has been a part of
the history OF the American republic
According to Mr.. Barnum's statement
5000, 600 American freemen have seen
Jumbo and 100000 children have
been on his back. Jumbo's skin is to
be stuffed for Tufts College of Massa-.
chusetts, and his bones are to be sent
to the National Museum at Washing
ton. While Jumbo gratiiied the Brit
ish pride by dying under the Union
Jack the American republic is to have
the sacred custody of his remains.

Styles in Arms and Legs.

Two signs in the show window OF q
Barclay street dealer in surgical APP
pliances read as follows: "Old Style
Leg" and New Style Leg" They
show that there is fashion in artiti-
cial legs The old style leg consisted
OF short wooden stump and socket,
which was to be fastened to the re-
naming portion of the missing men,
per by stout broad strap. 1t was of
the same style usually exhibited in
picture books and on the comic opera
stage. The new style leg was flesh
colored copy of human leg and foot
light and apparently as comfortable
as a cripple would require.
''l'he old style leg" said the pro-
prieior, sis clumsy affair, and is
chiefly worn by those who are not
proud of personal appearance and by
pour men who are unable to pay tho
price demanded for finer work. We
still have large orders for them, and
always expect to have. They cost
from So to $25, according to work
manship. The new style of leg costs
from $75 to $500. The former price is
for leg from the knee downward,
while the latter takes il whole leg,
from the hip-joint to the big toe.
These legs are very light. They are
hollow and are made of a great many
layers of wood, as thin as wall paper,
cemented together. They are COM
Portable to the stump, and the springs
IN them give their owner an almost
natural gait. There is spring-joint
at the ankle, which enables the foot to
bend up and down, and also laternal
joint at the same place, that allows
the foot to turn from side to side. 1t
is in arms, however, that tins business
has made the most rapid advance
ment," continued the dealer; 1.-THE
man who invented the artificial arm
and hand was practical philan-
thropist. When | was boy man
who lost his arm was obliged to wear
a wooden stump with a screw socket
ut the end. Into this he could screw
knife, spoon or fork to help him
while eating, and hook for use at
other times. Now we can give him q
wrist, hand and fingers which work
with springs and almost completely
take the place of the missing members.
: He can put knife, spoon and fork
between his fingers, which will hold
them with grip of steel, and thus he
may eat without discomfort. He can
also put pen between his fingers and
write almost as well as he could with
his natural hand. Ten years ago this
would have been regarded as miracle.
This style of arm sells tor 800. They
make artificial portions of mans
body now almost as serviceable us the
real ones. ~ NeW York Sun.

but her strange orientialism of person
atty, the witchery of her face, her ser
pcntine grace of movement and the
rakish carelessness and unevenness Of
her methods and manners. She is a
type of the century, genius unhealthy
in luxuriance and abundant in fasci-
nations. Her beauty is a beauty Gre
ated by artists before her comedies and
fierce little Ibsen dramas were written
Her methods are absorbingly animal
and instructive with that spiritlstic UNI
consciousness resultant in the most
brilliant dramatic achievement. She is
a culminative expression of the hours

whirlwind from an impenetrable forest
Of orchids, flash of lightning carrying
in it's Zig-Zag spasm of fire. She Is not
complete. she is not solacing nor filling,
she is Rejane and the magic of name
made so unusual must become food for
a new word, a special adjective Of adj
vanced significance. There is but six
teenth of Nine. Rejane's talent called
upon for exhibition in Mime. Sans
Gene" There are brusque comedy and
instants of pathos, swift febriculose sur
prises of power and a richly original
humor spontaneous and delightful, but
scarcely a chance for display of Re
james greatest gifts. Ibsen's didactic
and sullen women, with their frights
and appalling silences, their tempestous
sufferings and pretended gayeties, must
give better play to the Kaleidoscope
possibilities of Nine. Rejane's accom-
plishments. Her comedy is incompar-
able, daring and pretty as garden of
carnations. Her odd, deep eyes with
their wizard little eyebrows have won
derful eloquence and wit enough to take
the place of impotent words. Gesture
in Nine. Sans-Gene is so obtrusively
gauche and characteristic that scarcely
notion of Rejane's grace is limited,
though the force and correctness os
every pantomime sentence are evident
outgrowths of that control which means
absolute beauty of movement and pose.
AS the jolly, loyal washerwoman of the
empire Rejane is busy, sharp-toned
clod of good nature and business: as
the democratic duchess she is crudely
natural. out-of-place innocent. at all
times conspicuous and occasionally pa
thetic and histrionic. Something OF
soubrette's amativeness for applause
leads Nine. Rejane into stereotyped bus.

A Wonderful City.

The City of London is the most won.
derful place in the whole world, and
its frequenters the most wonderful
people. 1t is the smallest of cities, but
the most valuable. 1t has an area of
one square mile. but that one square
mile produces rent of four millions.
per annum, and its inhabitants pay,
one-seventh of the general rates of the
whole metropolis, which has an area
of 120 square miles. Land is now
sometimes sold in the country at about
fl0 per acre, which is equal to one
half penny per square yard. 1t has
been sold in the city at f640 per square
yard, which is equal to over So, 000,0 900
per acre. In other words, the price of
square yard of land in Lombard
street has realized sum that would
purchase nice little freehold estate
in Berkshire of not less than sixty-four
acres. II is calculated that 10, 900 peo-
pie enter the city daily, Sundays ex-

Der Boss PRESIDENT" Gives Away "a Few
Facts About Them.
President Won der Abe OF the st.
Louis Browns has prepared a table
which will be of interest to baseball
cranlls of the old days, and also to those
of these later days. inasmuch as 1t
shows the salaries received per month
by old-time favorites. 1t also serves to
recall the names of players well nigh
forgotten by cranks of the last few sea-
sons. Comisky, who will this year man
age the st. Paul team, came to the
Browns in 1882 at a salary of SIS per
month. He Immediately established
himself as a favorite, and the following
season received Sill "A each month dur
ing the playing season. In 1884 his sal
airy was increased more than $500 q
month. When he went to Cincinnati he
was getting $1.OS3.33 a month from
President Won der Abe, and went to
Brush at an increase over that. He was
getting at that time what
was considered one of the
largest, If not the largest, amount
of money for playing ball of any one
player on the diamond. There is a
strong probability that such large
amounts will never again be paid ball
players. The limit in league salaries is
now $4,000, though this rule has been
evaded in several instances, notably
with Rusie and Meekin Of New York,
by giving money as bonus for extra
work in the box, says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat.
Arlie Latham. who is still in big

A new sect of religious worshipers
has sprung into existence in Zalma, Mo-,
and is attracting widespread attention.
The Rev. Joe Shrader is the shepherd Of
the new flock. The center of attraction
is a young girl who makes periodical
flights to heaven, so 1t is claimed, re-
turning with messages for the believ-
ers. The Rev. Shrader claims the Bible
to be out of date, and proposes to es-
tablish a new code obtained from head
quarters through the instrumentality Of
his "angel."
