"deadly parallel on the Examiner, showing
the latter's position on the silver question a
year ago. The Examiner has evidently found
out that 1t is receiving dose of its own medi-

The Latest in Thieves Coats.

Pickpockets who rob men and wo-
men in street cars have adopted new
device to escape arrest-one which at
the first trial proved successful. De-
tective Sam O'Neil of the central sta.
tion saw pickpocket at work in n
Wentworth avenue electric car last
evening, and when the thief had ex-
tracted q pocketbook of a woman pas
senger O'Neil sprang toward the Of
fender.
The car was moving south over the
Madison street intersection and was
heavily loaded. O'Neil's hand closed
on the coat collar of the thief, who
dashed toward the rear platform. Like
IA shell the coat of the offender fell
from his shoulders, and the former oc q.
cupant had no difficulty in reaching
the street and getting away from the
detective, who, with the empty coat
in his hand, stood still and astonished.
Attempts TO follow the thief were in
terfered with by the crowd on the car
and in the street, aud the coat was the
only evidence O'Neil could produce
when he entered the central station
An examination of the garment
showed it had been slit down the arms
and sleeve holes, under the shoulder
blades, and in other places, so that
the wesrer could get out of it without
stopping to take it off i'm the regular

The Deadly Grape See ].

! The grape seed, having been relieved
OF the charge of causing appendicitis,
seems to have taken a new tack aud is
trying to do its mischievous work in
another fashion.
An official of a New Jersey county
is in a critical condition from the eff
fects, it is said, of grade seed. He
ate some grapes and took great care
not to swallow the seeds, but by come
accident managed TO inhale one, which
lodged in the upper portion of his
lungs. Himself u physician, he real
lied the necessity for care and rest,
and supposed he had given the seed
ample time to become encYsted, which
however was not the case.
There are a number of cases on rec.
ord where small articles of various
sorts have been drawn into the lungs
with the breath In several instances
irritation had begun that ended in
death. Sometimes, though, the article
becomes coated with exudations from
the surrounding surface and is gradu.
ally covered up, forming lump that
one may carry through the remainder
of life without serious injury. Post
mortem examinations have disclosed
several of these cysts which had moth
ing to do with the death OF the subject.

A Great Dog.

petted his $1,000 dog Glenbeigh. 81

makes point l know that be has
scented bird and know that he will
not move a muscle while l have a
chance at that bird
81 was hunting quail up at Point
Reys last month when lost Glenbeigh.
l knew he must be pointing in the
brush somewhere, but L looked every
where for him and could not find him.
The next {day l resumed the search,
with no better success, but on the
third day l found him in a dense
thicket, standing perfectly rigid, with
bis tail sticking straight out behind
and one foot up. A quail had run in-
to hollow tree. and the dog stood at
the opening pointing. The quail
dared not come out, and the dog, true
to his training, wouldn't move. He
had been standing in that position,
without so much as moving foot, for
siXty-five hours, aud when l tried to
lead him away he could not walk. ~

"They had stuck knife handle be-

nearly twenty four hours. I believe
he's dead.
"'We'll go on as long as we can

for it. IF we can only keep the arti-

Gods sake, keep it up as long as you
can, Wilson.

chance of saving him, I'll go on; but

longer.
He's still warm, Wilson, and I
won't give up hope as long as that

'That WAS a nice cheerful conversa-

said, but I doubt whether the most
persistent eavesdropper ever had the
pleasure of hearing a man pronounce
him dead, without being able to con-
tradict the statement. If / hadn't

SONG OF, SPRING.

The spring time, o the spring lime!
Who does not know it well?
When the little birds begin to build,
And the little buds begin to swell
When the sun with the clouds plays hide
and-seek,
And the lambs are bucking and bleating,
And the color mounts to the maiden's cheek,
And the cuckoo scatters greeting
In the spring time, joyous spring timel
The summer, o the summer!
Who does not know it well2
When the rlngdoves coo the long day
through
And the bee refllls his cell.
When the swish of the mower is heard at
morn,
AMI we all 10 the woods go roaming,
And waiting is over aud love is born,
And shy lips meet in tho cleaning,
In the summer, ripening summerl

The New York Tribune says: Some
little time ago famous firm of Lon
don solicitors found it necessary, in
case involving large interests, to have
some detective work of difficult and
delicate nature done in this city, and
instead of employing the regular agen-
cies put it in the hands of an American
women OF good social standing in pri-
vate life. She undertook the task,
and has been so completely successful
in the performance of it that the firm
employing her has not only thanked
her, but sent her a check for hand
some sum. The employment of women
oteducation and position for delicate
work has become common in England,
but thus far few women have been so
employed in this country. If they go
into the business, however, il is pretty
safe to say that they will succeed in it.

Lithium, which was recently shown
by M. Guntz to absorb nitrogen when
heated to below red heat, has been
proved by him and NJ. Deslandres to
absorb it also slowly when cold. The
action is analogous to the slow absorp-

unique as a reaction of nitrogen.
In two pole dynamos the proportions

equals one and one-half diameters and
sometimes three diameters. 1t is
common to find the length equal to
two diameters.

From Vienna comes the news of a
wonderful discovery in Photographic
science. II is no less than means of
photographing the interior of solid,
Opaque bodies. By the new system
the bones of mans hand were per-
fectly photographed, the flesh being
invisible in the picture. Broken limbs
and bullets in human bodies were also
successfully revealed, as we'll as OBJ
jects placed in a wooden box. Pro-
fessor Routgen, of the University of
Wurzburg, is the inventor. The light
he uses to photograph by is produced
what is known as a Crooke's pipe, viz
vacuum glass tube with an induction
electric current passing through it.
The result is light that appears to
penetrate organic substances just as
ordinary light passes through glass.
The inventor throws open a wide field
for the deduction of new truths in
electricity and optics.
