A CLAw-FINGERED PEOPLE.
Strange DefOrmity of a Family in
western New York.

A Buffalo correspondent of the New
York Sun, writing about the valley of
Zoar, in Cattaraugus county, says: Here
among the hills, where strange faces are
rarely seen, is concealed a remarkable
example, of natures occasional vagaries
and the strange persistence of abnormal
tiles through heredity. Among the few
residents. of Zoar there are several fami-
lies of claw-fngercd persons. They are
not wild or hair-covered, at least not more
so than most of the folk along the Cat
taraugus, but nearly all of them have
curious deformity of the fingers and toes
which gives them their name. They have
lived here many years, ana although their
neighbors are still inclined to look upon
them somewhat askance, they are no
longer regarded as especially wonderful,
and one might travel through the valley q
dozen times without once hearing word
about its strange Inhabitants.
In driving through the valley recently
the writer came across an old farmer
loading hemlock by the roadside, and in
quired for the claw-fingered residents.
ssThat Robbins tribe?" was the reply.
yes, I've knowed some of 'em for nigh
on forty years, cause / was raised right
here Yes, their hands is like claws.
but faint nothin' much to look at. Why,
folks come all the way from Buffalo
(between thirty. and forty miles) to look
at 'em, an you'd think by the way they
go on about it that they was goin' to a
circus"
The old man shook his head at the
unaccountable curiosity of the Buffalo vis-
itors, and turned again to his work.
Although the residents of Zoar usually
refer to their strange neighbors as a
tribe they use the word only as it is
frequently employed in rural districts IN
speaking of any large family. They are
by no means looked upon as a sepa-
rate order Of beings. Still there is a
strong social prejudice against them. Az
though this prejudice has not been suffi-
cient to prevent marriages with other fam
lilies in the neghborhood, it has discour-
aged such marriages. The consequence
Is that there has been much intermarry-
ing in the family, and this may have
something to do with the perpetuation OF
their deformity.
As well as can be learned, the peculiar
digital formation of the claw-fingered
folks has existed in Zoar through four
generations. In the early part of the
century a man named Robbins settled
in Zoar He was remarkable because his
fingers and toes were so bent that they
resembled claws somewhat more than they
did human digits. In other respects there
was nothing particularly striking about
his appearance. His strange, claw-iiixe
hands and toes became objects of consid-
cradle curiosity. but 1t does not anDear

:@y and Gladstone

There was-perhaps there still is-in
England metaphysical club, Of which
Huxley and many other eminent per-
sons were members. They met once
month to discourse Of these high mat
ters. Mr.. Gladstone was one. There
is no known subject on which the
great pa:liamentarian is not ready to
enlarge with copious confidence. He
did on metaphysics at the club and
elsewhere. Mr.. Huxley was once ask
ed whether Mr.. Gladstone was an ex-
pert metaphysicion. "An expert in
metaphysics? He does not knew the
metaphysics of the word,' was the rath
startling answer. Between Mr.. Glad
stone and Mr.. Huxley no love, in
truth, was ever lost. Their relations
were never intimate, and though in
private they met as men do in England
amicably and civilly, no matter how
much they differ in public, there was
and could be no cordiality.

Roads and Surface Roads.

The surface roads in New York City
continue to gain at the expense of the
elevated lines. Last year the surface
roads gained over 100000 in the
number Of passengers carried, while
the elevated roads lost 13,7O0,O 900; and
the past year the surface lines gained
27,1OO0O0, while the elevated lost 15,-
1O0,0O0-the surface roads taking all
of the aggregate increase in traffic and
over 100000 of passengers besides.
This leads to the conclusion that the
elevated roads must look to long-dis-
tance travel in the city for their mann
stay, as the statistics show that for
short distances people prefer to take
surface car, even though slower, to
spending time and effort in reaching
and climbing up the stairs of an elc-
rated station and dow>. again. The
public demand for more express trains
on the elevated lines is thus likely tc
be needed.

that in this way a large amount Of

Effect of Excitement on Neckties

Effect of Excitement on Necktfes
Custom makes it law that neckties
must be worn. Have you ever noticed
that this article of wear, apparently
SO trivial in Importance is the first
to get up antics when the owner gets
excited? There were some stirring mo-
ments, and things went wrong con-
stantly at recent political convention
In Philadelphia. Some of the leaders
had lots of work on their hands.
While they were shouting and arguing
and grew more heated with each mo-
nent, a Call reporter noticed their
neckties slowly rose up, ending by
gracing the tops of their collars. 9th
crs became united
The cravats were a sort of uncon~
scious thermometer, registering the
mental warmth. Perhaps there is an
undiscovered natural law governing
this pe"'':'rity.

sever the thread which holds it, and
causes the trolling tackle to drop into

the scramble after the counterfeit del

that the biggest fish will prevail and
devour the hook before the others get
a chance at it. In the meantime the
fisherman's assistant can pull in the
kite and prepare it for another trip.
AS the bluefsh is most abundant when
the wind blows from the shore. the
kite scheme IS regarded as feasible
