Fox was put in charge and conducted
the outfit to its destination without
further trouble. This was the year Fort
Mckinney was established on the Little
Piney. in Dakota, which is now John

lowed the old Bozeman trail. and being
the first to pass through the Indian
country together with the establish

Indians to open hostilities on the trains

The ancicnts npde cake. but it was

with flour and water, some of them

Some Of them were not unlike our

as We cat bread.
Wedding cake was IN institution
among them. as with us, but the cake
was u plain one and was broken above
the head of the bride as she went to her

OF Roman marriages 2, 900 years ago.
The breaking of the cake was part Of q

CAN WE COMPETE WITH EUROPE:

The following point is made by
George B. Curtiss in his recently issu-
ed tariff work, Protection and Pros
perity:"
An examination of the evidence of
British manufacturers given before the
royal commission on depression of
trade and industry. quoted in preceding
chapters. shows that the chief COM
plant in England against the CONT
nent is because of the longer hours and
lower wages which prevail there. 1t is
fully demonstrated that the superior
efficiency" of British artisans has not
saved Great Britain from an inunda-
ton Of continental goods. II the con-
tinent is able to supplant and destroy
industries in Great Britain, as it is GER
tainly doing, with lower wages and
longer hours, how then would 1t be
possible for the United States to with
stand the combined continental and
British competition when higher wages
paid to its artisans are still higher
than those paid in the United King
dom?

Enoch Arden Up to Date.

Some few days back a lady who be-
lieved herself to be Il widow suddenly
received, under peculiar circumstances,
a visit from her husband, who, one
night during the commune, III 1871, dis
appeared completely, as indeed did
many others at that time. at the meet
ing between husband and wife the for
mer was muffled up and consequently not
recognized by his spouse, who sent him
about his business. He eventually OBJ
tanned hearing, at which he explained
that n relative had died, leaving small
property to her and the husband, whom
she supposed dead. After conveying this
piece of news the strange visitor received
more attention, and the woman readily
consented to go next morning i'll his
company to notary's cfice, where tie
title deeds would be given over to her.
All went well until the pair were safe
ly inside the lawyers room, when the
mysterious stranger threw aside the
wrappings with which he had previous
" envclopcd himself, and the astonished
wife then behcld her husband. So over
come was she by the apparition that she
mechanically signed various papers set
before her without inquiring into their
contents. Once outside the Office the
man turned to his wife and said, "You
have just put your signature to certain
documents without which I could not
enter into possession of the property left
me. That is all want of you. Good
by" Thereupcn the husband jumped
into cab and has not been seen since.

jewellers of Philadelphia. 1t is four

and the first floor contains the large lee

being equipped with table bagatelle,
checkers, lotto and other games. The

HAS TWO Exl6TENCES.
An English Girl Has Acquired What Sci
eptists Call Double Consciousness.

At a recent meeting Of the Clinical
society, says the London Medical Press,
distinguished suburabn practitioner,
whose name is withheld, i'll order not to
afford any clcw to the identity Of the
patient, showed girl, ~ years OF age,
who exhibited in the most complete and
indubitable form the condition known
as dual existence, or double con-
sciousDess.
Last year, after q severe illness. which
was diagnosed to be meningitis, she be-
came subject to temporary attacks OF
unconsciousness, on awakening from
which she appeared in an entirely differ
ent character In her normal condition
she could read and write and speak flu
emily and with comparative correctness.
In the altered mental condition follow
ing the attack she Loses all memory OF
ordinary events, though she can recall
things that have taken place during pre-
vious attacks. So complete is this alter
alton of memory that at first she was
unable to remember even her own name,
or to identify herself or her parents. By
patient training in the abnormal condi-
ton she has been enabled to give things
their names, though she still preserves
baby fashion of pronouncing.
She sometimes remains in the abnor-
NAL condition for days together, and the
change to her real self takes place sud
denly, without exciting surprise or dis
may, and she forthwith resumes posses
sion of her memory for events of her or
binary life to the exclusion Of those
which have transpired during the abb
normal state. During the last month or
so she appears to have entered on new
phase for, after a mental blank Of q
fortnight's duration, she awakened COM
pletely oblivious Of all that had happened
since June, 1895, and she alludes to
events that took place just anterior to
that date as though they were of quite
recent occurrence. In fact, she is living
mentally in July, 1895.
These cases, though rare, are of course
not infrequently met with, and they
have been carefully studied, especially i'll
France, where women appear more prone
to neurotic manifestations. The by
pothesis that finds most favor is that the
two halves of the brain do not work in
unison-in other words, that there has
been some interference with the connec-
lions which, in the ordinary normal be-
ing, make of wonderfully composite
organ like the brain one organic whole.
Sometimes one part Of the brain, and
sometimes the other, takes possession Of
the field of psychical activity, and, as
each part works to the exclusion of the
other, we get the Dr. Jelkyll and Mr.
