COLLECTING FADS.
The Horrible Custom of Getting Relics
Of MurdcrerS.

A foreign paper is responsible for the
statement that the late Lord Randolph
Churchill had a choice private colIec-
ton Of teeth of noted criminals TO
which he was constantly adding up to
a short time before his death, says Tenn
pie Bar. The competition for the Deem
ing relics at the Antipodes is too recent
and too revolving TO be enlarged upon,
but it may be mentioned that the AK and
knife with which this unmitigated VIII
lain murdered his victim fetched 81
15s, and the spade with which he dug
her grave brought q guinea. His cloth
ing was eagerly competed for, even
down to half dozen pairs OF patched
socks. Indeed, the collectors of Grim
inal" curios are extremely numerous all
over the world, and these mementoes
range from Tyburn halters to pipes
which murderers have smoked and pots
which famous thieves have tossed in
honor of past and future triumphs.
1t has remained for a Nebraska COL
lector to- gather locks of hair shaved
from the heads of noted criminals when
they enter the penitentiary and these
he labels and indexes with great care.
Superstition sometimes accounts for
the fancy prices offered for such CHASTITY
relics. Frenchmen obtain them as
charms against ill-luck. A piece of 2
hangman's rope is considered potent
spell against evil in some parts Of
France. AS criminals are there guillo-
tined such ropes are difficult to get and
SO fetch high prices. They are some
times mounted in gold and worn in
lockets.

CHASING A GOVERNMENT.
Difnculty That . Chinese Ambassador
Experienced In France.

The present voyage OF Ii Hung
Chang brings to memory the trials of
Chang How, once Chinese ambassador
10 France. In 1870, says the New York
Times, he went to Europc to settle the
contentious which had arisen follow
ing the massacre of Tien-Tsin. When
Chang How left China the French en-
pire still existed; when he landed in
France the empire had been over
thrown, and he did not know TO whom
he should address himself. At Marseilles
they told him that government had
been installed at Tours. Chang How
went there as soon as possible, but
found that NM. Cremeieux and Glais
Buzoin, who then represented the gov
eminent, had gone to Bordeaux. Let
US go to bordeaux" said Chang How,
philosophically, bat when he arrived
the old difficulty arose-to whom
should he present himself, Cremeieux or
Admiral Four.ichoir? No one could tell
him. Gambetta was coming in bal
loon, but II was impossible to reach him.
Then Chang How went to see Jules
Favre He was told that the assembly
had gone to Versailles. Very WE'LL"
he said. "let us go to Versailles" So
the entire embassy left for that city.

Not at all. They demanded the anbas-
sador's credentials for the new govern
ment He had none. I'm that case it
is impossible to present you. Go to
Peking, get your papers made out in
due form, return, and you will be pre-
scented to N. Theirs" So Chang How
took his departure.

a CASE OF TELEPATHY.
OLD Lady Appeared in Vision at the
Time of Her Death.

Time OF Her Death.
A gentleman took house in ireland
for six months and was accompanied
thither by his wife and daughters, says
Realm. The house was furnished and
had plenty of bedrooms. Therefore it
was decided not to use certain large,
long room with cupboards along one
side (Which had all been locked and
scaled up with tape) in which things be-
longing to the owners of the house had
been put away. One evening one of the
daughters going to her room saw an
old lady wrapped in shawl walking
along the passage in front of her. The
old lady appeared to know her way and
hurried on without hesitation into the
unused room. The girl called her sister
and they followed the dame into the
room. But all was silent; no one was
there; the dust lying about showed no
signs of footprints.
Shortly after the same young lady
was reading on the hearthrug by fire
light. Looking up she beheld the old
lady standing in the doorway watching
her. Greatly frightened, she sprang up
and, rushing downstairs, was found
fainting at the drawing-roOm door. At
last the family returned to Dublin. One
day when q friend was calling the curl
Gus incident which have narrated was
referred to. The young lady very I'M
willingly told her experiences. The Wis
itor seemed much struck and asked for
an accurate description of the old lady,
Gov said Sba "tbot bclrSa he ON cre6
10 two old ladies, sisters, and when they
let their house they went to reside at
Geneva. One of them, answering ex.
aetly to the description you have given
died at the time you saw her appear.

An AMBER FISH.
Fish Wcll Known in Southorn Waters
But One Rarely seen Here.


The amber tishess-there are several
species of them-bcIOng to the family
that contains the crevalles, the pom
panoes. the banded pilot, the horscfish,
and the threadiish. In shape they arc
nearest like the pilot fishes; they bear
Il general resemblance in shape. how
ever, to the bluefish. though not nearly
related 20 that fish They are rapid and
powerful swimmers and great travellers.
The amber fishes are found in nearly all
tropical and temperate waters; IN the
Mediterranean. the waters of the West
JLdes and the Gulf Of Mexico. and il.
Various parts Of the PaAjfic ocean. Some
of them are excellent food tiShes-all
are shapcly and beautiful. The larger
of them may attain a length Of four feet
or more and a weight Of 80 pounds.
Large amber fishes are common on the
coast of California, where they arc
among the most celebrated of the game
| fishes.
On this coasr, says the New York Sun,
| the amber fish comes as far north as
| Cape Cod, but rarely; one taken in i
pound net in GrayCsend bay in July of
the present year is perhaps the first OF
its particular species of which there is
record here. This fish was little more
than 80 inches in length. and it weighed
about IS pounds.

LONG RANGE OF CANNON.
One of krupp's Guns Carries Shot over
Fifteen Niles.

The longest distance that Il shot has
been fired is 4 few yards over 10 miles,
which was the range of krupp's 13O-
ton steel gun, firing shot weighing p
COO pounds. says Spare Moments. The
Hilton Armstrong gun has an extreme
range of II miles, firing shot weighing
$500 pounds, and requiring go pounds
of powder. These guns, however, proved
too expensive, being unable 10 stand
firing 100 times. and their manufacture
has practically been abandoned. The
22-ton Armstrong gun hurls solid shot
for a distance of - miles, and the dis
charge of the gun cannot Ee heard at the
place where the ball strikes. From II
10 - miles is the computed range of the
most powerful guns now made, and to
obtain that range an elevation of near
ly As degrees is found to be necessary.
Quick-firing guns are more to Ire de-
pended upon at the present day than ex-
IRENE length of range, and in this re-
spect what is considered the most won
derful Of guns, perhaps, is one of the
MaXims, which can fire as many as GOO
shots a minute, and yet is so light that
a soldier can carry it strapped to his
back.

ELRoY. Wis, Oct. 20.-Perry Rich

hendalls BY Constable Sanborn for
the murder Of a man named Gates at
Portage about 26years ago. Richard
son was said to be member of the
notorious Pat" WiIdrie who terroriz-
ed the vicinity Of Portage at that time.
Gates had been robbed and left for
dead, he revived and went into Por-
tagc. The gang then became fright
ened and Richardson and Hugh Smith
murdered him and then left the coun-
try. Smith was afterward caught and
lynched. Wildrie was also lynched.
Richardson came back here recently
under an assumed name, but applied
for a pension under his own name.
The granting of the pension put the
officers on his track and resulted in
his arrest. He was taken to jail at
Mansion to await his examination to
be held here next Monday.

BERLIN, Oct 29.-It is understood
that the proposed prosecution of
Prince Bismarck'5 organ, The Ham

state secrets, has been abandoned out
Of fear of the harm such a step might
do to Germany's foreign policy. 1t is
added, however. should Prince Bis
marck publish the circumstances I'm
der which he resigned office, the gov
eminent will be forced to act, and it
is said it would probably treat Prince
Bismarck in the same manner that
the latter treated Count vop Arnim.
Count Won Arnim was arrested in
October 1874, and confined in Berlin
for refusing 10 give up documents
sent to him as ambassador.
