An Expensive Lesson.

John H. Davis was given expensive
lesson IN the Police Court today for his In
decent conduct in the Agricultural grounds
Saturday. This particular public park has
been comparatively free from this class of
offenders for a long time. because of the
effective work done there by Special Off
GERS Cook and Davis. Saturday afternoon
the prisoner Davis was in the grounds
and his indecent conduct attracted the at
tention of two ladies, and complaint was
made against him. The officers were on the
alert, as usual, and they soon had the man
In custody. Because of the nature of the
offense, no collateral was accepted in the
case, and Davis was kept behind the bars
until this morning, when he was taken to
court When questioned by Judge Kimball
he denied that there had been any inten-
tioral violation of the law on his part, but
the proof was against him, and fine of 500
or six months was imposed

WAS A SORT OF CINDERELLA.
His Fathers DistruSt Had n Good
Effect on the New SHAH

A dispatch from Moscow to the London
Daily News says that the newly proclaimed
shah, Muza -Deon was never favor
lite of his father. While still child he was
sent to Tabriz in charge of a native tutor
who neglected him in order to prosecute
his own ambitious schemes. In these the
tutor was so far successful that for many
years he practically welded gubernatoiial
powers over the province of Azerbaijan
During this time the young prince was
delegated to the doubtful guardianship and
tuition of Mollahs, who did their utmost to
Undue their charge with their own fanat-
iclsm. Muzafer was still mere puppet in
the hands of his nominal tutor when the
kurd instruction, under the leadership of
the Sheik Obeidullah, broke out ana for
this he was made the scapegoat.
He was recalled 10 Teheran where he
remained under the dispeasure of Nasr
ed-Decn until 1Ss2. when he was sent back
TO Tabriz as governor of the province. For
many years thereafter however, his DOW
cis were strictly limited and controlled by
the central administration of Teheran.
The imperial displeas sure to which he was
so long subject had the most beneficial eff
feet upon the prince. He had become en-
tfrely distrustful of the Mollahs and Seids
and rejected their fanatic teaching. He
began, indeed, to doubt the tenets of the
MusSulman faith, and to look to the study
of European history and geography, and
learned French Very rapidly. He had his
daughters well his sons taught
french 10y a trenchnan, lieutenant of
artillery. This at first caused a great scam
dial at Tabriz, but Muzafer-ed-De disre-
earded these angry comments, and as his
daughters grew up he engaged for their
tuition French goycrness, Mime. Limosin.
From this time forward the prince was
known as a man of advanced and enlight-
ened ideas and principles, of exceptionally
generous instincts, ana of a kind and anna
hle disposition. The best proof, perhaps
OF MuzaferS just and honest rule as Cow
ernor OF AzerbaJaR lies in the fact that
kls ten years tenure of that post has add
ed nothing TO his private fortune, while his
brother, Massud Mira, and the latter's
adjoint in the government OF Ispahan,
kamrad Mira, the present minister OF
war, have now become reputedly the two
richest men in Persia.
Despite the strongly inimical feeling OF
his brother, MuZafer-ed-Deen has always
manifested the most fraternal regard for
Massud Mira. The new shah aiWays
showed very gracious attentions to Russian
visitors ana more especially to the numer-
Gus Russian military officers who have
waited upon him in Tabriz. To those he
has frequently expressed his particular
predictions for Russia and the Russians
and avowed his intention when he was
called to the throne of drawing still closer
the bonds which attach Persia to the great
slav empire.

THE ZEROGRAPH.
An Instrument for Sending and Re
ceivinE Telegraph Messages.


From the Philadelphia Press
The Zerograph, an instrument in appear
ance like an ordinary typewriter, Is being
used In England, it is said, for transmitting
or receiving telegraph messages says an
exchange. One machine Is employed at
each end of the line. In sending a tele-
graphic message no special training Is re-
quired The operator depresses IN turn the
keys OF what appears to be an ordinary
typewriter keyboard, with the usual ar
rangement for the letters. The depression
of key closes the connection of a local
battery of from five to ten small accumu-
iator cells, which causes a current to flow,
not only actuating the printing and ink
ing mechanism of the transmitting instru-
ment, but also closing the line circuit
which. in it's turn, completes the local
circuit of the receiving instrument, The
two machines are thus simultaneously ac-
tuated, and as the operator presses the
key, he not only prints the message on
his own instrument, but makes an exact
reproduction upon the receiving instru-
ment.
AS soon as the end of a line is reached
the machine automatically moves the paper
forward, and, releasing spring. causes the
paper roller to move along ready for the
first letter to strike at the commencement
of new line. The machine is thus per
fectly automatic in it's action, and NAV
be safely left to take care of itself at the
receiving end, the message as received be-
ing printed on the roll of paper without
any attention being required.

DOGS KEPT THEM WARM
n hh1fe Manufacturing Town wheI
the Grinders UseALiving Stoves.

N"ie manufacturing Town Where
the Grinders UsesLiving Stoves.
From the Philadelphia Press
TIMERS, an old town in the Auyergne ia
famous for its steel knife industry. The
town has retained much of its romantic
medieval character. Its streets are mar
row and crooked. and the manufacture of
knives, the principal industry of the town.
Is not carried on in modern factories hut
In ancient, small buildings along the little
river Durolle, which furnishes the mower
for the industrial township. Curious and
unique as everything else in Theirs Is the
method of work of the people engaged in
grinding the knives.
The grinders, men and women Law
stretched out on wooden planks over
which they sometimes throw sheepskins
to soften the boards Head, shoulders and
arms reach over the end Of the board, and
with their hands they hold INCREASINGLY
the rough steel blades upon the big grind
stone which revolves beneath them by
means of powerful, yet simple, transmits
sion. 1t Is very Comical aspect to see
these people at work, particularly be-
cause every one Of the workmen has a
small, long-haired dog who serves as a
sort Of live stove. During the long winter
IN the mountains body stretched out at
full length suffers much from cold in these
lily protected mills, and, since it Is not
possible for the workman to warm himself
by change Of position or by moving his
limbs, this pvculiar expedient has been
adopted in Theirs. The dogs are well
trained to their Office. One whistle of their
master calls them up, and a simple turn of
the body indicates to them where they
have to lay down to give new warmth to
the body of their master.

ARRANGING THE HAIR.
The Use of Side Combs and the
Effect.

The Use of Side Combs and the
From Harper's Bazaar.
It Is a matter Of wonder1nent to MANY
rich people that women who have very
small incomes often look better than those
who spend double the amount of money on
their personal adorIment. The clever Uo-
man who always looks as though she were
dressed In the very latest fashion has some
one point about her costume that is new.
1t may only be the ribbon about her neck
that is tied in some new style. The trim
ming OF her hat is put on in a chic way
that has only just made its appearance, or
she arranges her hair with taste
The present style of hairdressing is some-
what startling, and it will not do to follow
u In the extreme mode which some women
have adopted.
The fiat has gone forth that 'bangs ere
out" but no law has been issued that the
hair should be so tightly dragged off tho
face that it almost interferes with shutting
the mouth. Age shows first of all on the
temples, where the hair grows thin. and
this pulling back Of scanty locks would be
trying to the Venus of Milo. To attain the
very full pompadour roll which some peo-
pie affect requires rat" under the hair.
but there is no necessity for an exaggerat-
ed effect, and small combs put under the
side locks will give all the fullness that is
required or that is becoming
These combs-side combs as thew are
called-are now worn inside as well as out
side; when used for the former purpose
they are quite plain; for the latter. are
olnamented.
To put the side combs under the hair a
parting must be made directly in the cen
ter of the head and the hair again divided
f1cm the crown to the ear The combs
then are put in, as far forward as possible.
and the hair turned sharply back over
them. Even the straightest locks assume
a wave that is extremely pretty when turn
ed back in this fashion. Then, after the
front roll is satisfactorily arranged, the
side locks must be pulled out to give also
a full effect-not loose and flying, but kept
down with little fancy combs Pulling the
hair out to look full and soft makes It be-
coming to any woman's face, and it ia
even permissible to have q thin curl or
two stray over the forehead. At the back
the hair is arranged in a round knot: but
there is an evident tendency to arrange the
hair in the chatelaine braids that were
fashionable years ago. A broad fiat effect
must be given at all events.
With evening gowns the hair always
looks best arranged high on the head, as
the lines are more artistically carried out
by go doing: but for street wear the hair
arranged low, as described, is for the pres
ont, the correct fashion. The summer
fashions in hats accommodate themselves
to the styles in hairdressing better than the
winter ones did, and life is not now a bur-
den with arranging the hair every time one
has to nut on ones hat
