The engine was approaching

leaned out of his cab to see
what was the. matter. There

the engine and got out to in

the engine and then Went to the

and mangled.
The police were notified and

and issued a death certificate
in accordance with the above

be taken TO the house until the

is that there were several men
standing near by, none of whom

A few days ago the assistant post
master Of Port Chester, Pa, suspected
the carriers of having stolen some or
anges he had in the Office. according to
a local paper. So he bought another
stock and asked ncighboring druggist
to inject into Thorn some drug that
would MAKO the thieves sick, but not
injurc them. Tho druggist injected wa
ter and then informed tho carriers.
They Of course stole the oranges. and
when the owner entered the office he
found them all very sick. In a little
while they were writing on the floor.
Then the joker thought the druggist
had made mistake and ran to him for
prescription. He prescribed brandy.
and it took SO worth to relieve them of
their pain. Some of them got little
overcured by the medicine, or ON the
other side of normal condition. but
they enjoyed their superior's joke all

AIDsous WASTE OF MONEY.
Testimonials For the Czar's Funeral Tha

Testimonials For the Czar's Funeral That
Were Costly and Useless
There has certainly been hideoos
waste Of money in providing official tes-
timonials Of sorrow for the czar's fu-
neral. The queens wreath, which was
Of enormous SIZE" was sent from
Windsor to st. Petersburg in charge Of
Lord Darlington. the expenses of whose
mission will have to be paid by the for
eign Office. The German emperor's
wreath, which was ten feet in diameter,
required a special railway wagon to
transport it from Berlin to st. Peters
burg. The Emperor Francis Joseph sent
wreath eight feet long. which had
been constructed by 30 florists Tho bier
was surrounded by many hundreds of
towns and villages of Russia. some of
which had cost upward of f2, 900.
1t would be interesting to learn who
profits by all this lavish extravaganza.
for it is quite certain that every article
of any value which is sent on such an
occasion ultimately becomes the per-
quisite Of some court functionary, and
the individual who takes the spoil at
this function will be able to retire at
once with considerable fortune. Then
2, 800, 900 rubles have been squandered
in decorating public buildings. and it
is very queer commentary on the al
legged outburst of national woe that the
superintendent of an important railway
terminus at st. Petersburg was sent tc
prison for seven days because his sta.
ton was not in sufficiently deep mourn.

occasion of an imperial or royal funeral

ROYAL SPORTS.
Cruelties, NIiscaiied Hunting, with the
Master OF the Buckhounds.

cruelties, NIiscalIed Hunting. with the
Master OF the Buckhounds.
Over a year ago Queen Victoria gave
promise which was justiably con-
strued into an assurance that the prac-
tice of hunting tame deer in her name
should cease, and preparations were, in
fact, made to abolish the ancient insti-
tuition known as the royal buckhounds-
1t is now alleged that the queen merely
promised to have inquiries made, and
that the result thereof satisfied her that
the sport involved no more cruelty to
animals than fox hunting. The result
is that tame deer marrying. miscalled
hunting, is again in full swing, and the
newspapers are recording, as Of old, the
suffering inflicted by royal and aristo-
cratic sportsmen wearing the queens
uniform.
Already this season several Of these
hand reared stays have been so badly
torn by the hounds that they had to be
killed. The scandal is by no means a
new one, for quite 80 years ago a letter
appeared in The Times describing how
the queens buckhounds hunted a stag
down Piccadilly, and how the poor ami
NAL had worn the pads of its hoofs and
left trail Of blood behind Tender
hearted politicians, Tories as well as
Liberals. regularly threaten to refuse &c
vote salary for the master Of the buck
hounds when the estimates come before
the house Of commons, but invariably
social influence or party pressure or both
are brought to bear upon them, with th'
result that they manage to have engage
ments elsewhere when the house goe
into committee ON the supply. -Londor

The sugar business Of this country
is largely in the hands Of great COM
bination, but the reason for this is
that the policy of our Legislators has
been so parsimonious that instead OF
building up the small factories for the
manufacture OF beet sugar, the bounty
has been withdrawn and our people
have been discouraged in working NJ
the industry.

Finer Microscopes Needed.

Professor Schaefer, president of the sec
ton of physiology of the British associa-
ton, declares that he has discovered that
each organic cell in vegetable and animal
life contains an infinitesimal particle
which manifests definite and controlling
functions, and which appears to be, in
fact, the principle of life. He calls it the
attraction particle" because, despite It's
infinite littleness, lit exerts an extraordi
nary influence over the whole cell, which
may be many thousand times its size. 1t
initiates and directs those processes which
result in the multiplication of cells. "
The supposed fundamental form element
called cell is usually invisible to the
naked eye. Bearing this fact In mind, we
can get an idea of the extraordinary char
acter Of the statement of DIR. Schaefer that
she has discovered the life principle in
particle thousands of times smaller than
the cell itself" After magnifying the cell
900 diameters the central particle, the
attraction particle, or the living prin-
ciple, appears under the most powerful
microscope merely the size of a fine point

many animals part of the white of the

necessary to add to his button of black
and clear glass some opaque glass at the

means OF his blowpipe. Eyes for dolls,

One use to which they are put is in the

Once in awhile it is necessary to have a
