Clever Attempt of 13 Prisoners to Escape
One of the most wonderful attempts
at escape from prison ever known in
Michigan was that at the Wayne
county Jail at Detroit. Thirteen men
had dug a tunnel five feet deep and II
feet long, leading from one of the cells
in ward /, to the outer wall of the Jail
building, before being discovered.
Several tons of earth had to be re-
moved from the tunnel and disposed
of in the ward, TO say nothing of
few stones that weigh between 200 and
300 pounds each. Besides digging this
tunnel a section of floor tagging, 19x27
inches in size, was removed in one of
the cells, about foot of hard concrete
was dug through, and Stone founda-
ton, three feet in thickness, was
pierced In addition to this bricks
had been dug out Of the partition walls
between the cells, in spaces large
enough to permit the body of IL man to
pass. Only one layer of brick was left
in each partition, and each prisoner,
at given signal, could have connected
his cell with the adjoining one, so that
every man would have had clear
way to the cell from which the tunnel
was dug. The plot was discovered only
"a hours before the time set for the
escape,

THE SEVEN STARS.
A Strange Superstition of the Ancient
 Egyptians.


 In ancient Egypt the body of Osiris was always sealed up in the ark dur ing the month of November, because the people believed that the seven stars were seven brothers sailing their ships across the sky and carrying with them the souls of the dead. The people of ancient Gaul believed that the angels and the souls of great men held a celestial festival on that particular night in November, when both the full moon and the seven stars were on the meridian at the same hour. The Hot tentots of South Africa and the Abi- pones of South America each claim that the seven stars are their deceased fa- thers and grandfathers. Oakes says: Certain tribes in both Africa and South America hold that the seven stars is (are) their father fathers), and welcome their return with festivities and much rejoicing" The ancient Mexicans always sacrificed human being and kindled sacred fire (made of seven firebrands) on his back when the seven stars and the moon were on certain meridian together. The Pe- ruvians also had seven stars cere- monies, but without sacrifice, at about the time the Mexicans were carrying on their paganistic rites. The ancient Druids believed the seven stars to be boats, which carried souls to the judg- ment seat of the ''god of the dead"

FOUGHT UNDER WATER.
A Mink Drowned While Killing Musk
 rat in an Adirondack Pool.

rat in an Adirondack Pool
 The muddled water of half-frozen cove down on the flats told that some thing unusual had happened not long before. Palmer yet was the tale when stiffening furred body rose to the sur- face of the little open space of water. Under the fringe of nearly frozen ice dark spot showed plainly to a wood- mans eye that fight had occurred in demonstrated that it had been fight for food and fight for fife.
 A hungry mink had come that way along string of coves looking for something to eat. The mice were shy, and he could not catch them. Of fish there were none, but a lone muskrat, diving for roots and after minute be- heath the waters surface rising again, offered prey at once fighter and of goodly taste A mink likes to kill. a fighter He will go a long way from brooks, upon hill and even mountain tops, looking for one, woodsmen say. He tackles martens or weasels, and is especially fond of big muskrat.
 The mink crouched on the edge of the ice moment; then, as the muskrat rose, he sprang for his prey. The musk rat quickly threw up his head and caught the mink by paw. The mink got hold of the muskrat's neck, skin hold only. They rolled and kicked the water high in the air, throwing it ten feet away into the snow. The mink could have killed the muskrat had they been in the snow or on the ground, but in the water the muskrat was too pow erful. At last they dived, and above them the water boiled and grew yellow with mud.
 Under water the mink was as badly off as at the surface At last the mink's breath gave out, and, letting go he tried to rise, but the muslzrat would not release his hold on the minks leg. So at last the mink, after much strug- gling, died. But his hold on the musk rats throat, though at first only skin hold, had later been forced back, and the big vein had been cut. The mink rose to the surface, and the muskrat tried to swim away, but died, and rose as the other had done.

A Thief's Clever Ruse.

A man, wearing a large cape coat en- tered London store when the proprie- tor was alone, and asked to be shown some ladies' cloaks, as he wished to give his wife little surprise. After a care ful inspection, he fixed upon one, and asked the shopkeeper if he had young lady at hand, to put on the cloak to see how it looked. The proprietor re- gretted that none of the ladies of the establishment were in at that moment. ''Well," said the man, perhaps you wouldn't object to putting it on your self?" The unsuspecting shopkeeper slipped on the cloak, buttoned it, and tured round in all directions. Mag nifcent!" exclaimed the purchaser, with seeming ecstasy. But at the same time he grabbed the till, which he hid under his cape, and bolted out of the store. The mortified proprietor rushed after him into the street, where, how ever, he was seized by the passers-by, who dragged him back into his store in the supposition that the poor fellow had gone mad, and before he could ex- plain matters the rogue had disap- peared.
 What Querns Are.
 The quern is among the oldest and most primitive of mechanisms for the grinding of grain. There is a fixed stone and above it a rotating one. There is hole in the middle of the upper, or movable stone, into which the grain is dropped. A stick fixed into the upper stone permits of it being moved around. A wooden spindle runs through both stones. It is a good ma chine, but useless to-day. Neverthe- less, the quern, with but very little va riations, precisely as it was used in pre- historic times, is made and sold and grinds it's grain to-day in the Orkney and Hebridian islands. What patent dour-making mill of the present day would cost we do not know, but few years ago good quern could be made in Shetland for about one dollar

MO ADVANCE IN NAILS,

IncrenSa of a Hundred Per Cent IL the
Past sixty Days In Eastern Mnrksts-Tho
Causes.
New YoRK, July lR,-Inquiry in tho
nail trade in this city shows that there
has been an advance in the price OF
nalls in the last sixty days Of nearly
100 per cent. This is said to be due to
a strong agreement which inclndes all
tho manufacturers in the country, One
thing is certain, and that 10 that all the
manufacturers, agents and dealers IN
mills in this city are now selling nails
at tho same prices. II was also learned
| that there Ia q strong probability that
the pricos will 20 from 80 TO 90 cents u
hundred pounds on the average higher
than they arc at the present moment
This advance is checked only by tho
fear that too much greed may promote
foreign competition.
Mr.. Fuller, tho senior partner OF
Fuller Brothers, n leading firm oil nail
sellers in New York, told q reporter
that no considered tho advance in tho
price of nails during the last sixty days
a result OF tho general increase Of bu'l'
ness prosperity, but admitted that an
agreement between the manufacturers
not to put out any more goods than they
could sell ut Il profit might have had
something TO do with it. According to
MIR. Fuller, nails have advanced more in
proportion than some other things, Boz
cause there had been moro Of . depres'
sion ia this limo than in most other
goods. He cannot tell whether or not
the price will 90 any higher.
Mr.. Fuller said: III regard the I'D.
vance as perfectly legitimate outside OF
any agreement that thOre may have
been betwaen tho manufacturers. Tho
fact that there was q reduction Of l0O,'
600 tons in stock pig iron during tho
month Of June is good Droot that tho
consumption is now ahead OF tho sup
ply IN the hands OF the inrnishors. Yes,
tho thing may be overdone aud the mar
ket opened to foreigners in certain lines.
/ do not believe, however, much in the
danger OF foreign competition in tho
nail trade. The danger Is in tue for
foreign shipments OF raw material IN
tho shape Of steel billeH and pig iron.
That would check the tendency to adj
vance the prices here"
