ANARCHY DID NOT WORK.
Colonies Without u Chief Proved to he
Unpleasant Places to Live In.


In The Rue Laghouat an individual
named Delafond planted himself one
day recently straight in front Of q
sergeant de vile and shouted: ''vive
Ravachol!" He was, of course, imme-
diately conducted to the police commits
sary's Office, where, after saying that
his object in indulging in the seditious
cry was simply to get arrested and se-i
cure himself against dying from starva-
ton, he related a strange story. ~
He was, he said, formerly an anar-
chist propagandist. Being in Genoa in
1891 he embarked, with several otlier
anarchists, with the object of attempt
ing the foundation of an anarchist col
ony. They, for various reasons, went
to the vicinity of palmeira, in Brazil.
There they settled down as communi-
ty; but, in accord with their principles,
there was no sort Of social organization
or rules. There was no chief. Each
man worked as he liked. The best
workman was criminal, who had been
condemned for robbery and homicide.
After some little time other colonists
joined them; but soon grave discord
arose between the first settlers and the
newcomers, who wished to establish
what the anarchists called the bour.
geois customs, such as the referendum,
etc. The anarchists who had come from
Genoa, therefore, left and founded what
they considered colony where "true
liberty" prevailed.
This new enterprise succeeded for
short time. At one moment the So in.
dividuals of whom it was composed
possessed between them some 400. In
November last year, Cecilia, which is
the name they had given their settle
ment, was burned to the ground, and
typhus fever, which broke out soon
after, carried off a very large percen.
tage Of the inhabitants. Thesurvivors
in despair, dispersed. sat.s
Among them was Delafond, who, hav
ing scraped together just enough
money to pay his passage, embarked
for France, where he arrived few day q
ago without penny in his pocket.

THOUGHT HURTS THE TEETH.
Brain Workers Have More Trouble with
Moiars Than Do Laborers.

Brain Workers Have More Trouble with
... Moiars Than Do Laborers.
A prominent New York dentist made
the statement the other day, which he
saidwas backed by the highest scientific
authority, that intellectual pursuits
play havoc with the teeth, and that the
more a man tolls with his brain the
more likely are his teeth to disappear
or become diseased before he reaches
middle life.
q The reason why people in this coun.
try have poorer teeth than those OF any
other country in the world is because
they live at the highest possible pitch
of nervous pressure. Savage races
generally have teeth superior to those
of civilized races.
Their are many unusual occupations,
too, that have bad effect on teeth.
Quicksilver miners, bleachers who use
chloride of lime, people employed in
soda factories are some of those who
suffer. But the most harmful trade OF
all, not only in its effect upon the gen.
Cldl Dul dioO uDOh thC tNStht
is that of making matches. The phos-
phorus used in their manufacture af-
fects in some way the health of the
teeth of those who handle it.
Artificial teeth are made of all sorts
Of strange substances nowadays, but
probably the most curious of all mate
rails used for this purpose is COM
pressed paper. A dentist in Germany
has been making them in this way for
many years past. False teeth were
never so cheap as they are to-day and at
the same time never so dear. They can
be purchased as low as three dollars per
set, or they may cost as high as $1,000.
There are expensive dentists as well as
expensive doctors, and it is not an un-
common thing for $500 to be paid for
new outfit of molars.
When it comes to expensive teeth
or, rather, an expensive tooth-prob-
ably the costliest and most highly
priced in the world is that Of the sacred
monkey. 1t is in one of the temples Of
Siam, preserved in gold box. The
value the natives put upon it may be
judged by the fact that they paid 49,
100000 to Portugal for its ransom when
the fortunes of war placed it in the
possession of that nation. The Cinga-
lese also venerate as sacred a monkeys
molar, while the people Of Malabar wor-
ship one Of the elephants grinders. In
the Tonga islands tooth from sharks
jaw is regarded with great reverence,
and in India the faithful adore tooth
that is said to have once been in active
service in the mouth of Buddha himself.
The first dentist, in fact, must have
lived long before Buddha. At any rate
there were dentists in plenty in Egypt
and Greece 500 years B. c., who used
gold for filling teeth and golden wire
for fixing artificial ones. Gold has
even been discovered in the teeth Of
mummies known to be many thousands
of years old.--N. Y. Times.

FREEZING ICE CREAM.
Follow These Instructions and You'll BE
Sure to Succeed.

DO not draw any water from the ice
while freezing unless water raises to
top of can. The can should be only two
thirGs full of milk, as it will raise one
third while freezing. After the mill:
has been placed in the can, put the
freezer together ready for operation,
mash the ice and sprinkle coarse salt OH
until it stops cracking. (The ice may
be previously prepared). Then put the
ice around the can and add more salt.
When the freezing is completed remove
the beaters and cover the freezer with
carpet or woolen cloth and let the ice
cream harden one-half hour before
serving. After frozen, heating the
cream with large spoon or wooden
paddle will improve it. After standing
several hours it should be beaten be-
fore serving. Dipping spoon in luke
warm water before serving each plate
of cream and turn once around, will cut
very nice form.-Philadelphia In.

AN EXPERT IN GEMS.
Could Guess the Weight of a Diamond
Within m SIrteenfh of n GraIn.

1t is doubtful If there live in the
United States half dozen men capable
of filling the unique niche occupied,
during his lifetime, by Marcus Z. Har'
ris, the art connoisseur and expert in
precious stones, who died recently, aged
rs years.
Mr.. Harris possessed faculty or nat
ural gift for estimating the weight and
quality of precious stones that was sim.
ply astonishing. "He could at a glance"
said Mr.. Harris partner, estimate
within the one-sixty-fourth Of a carat
the weight of any stone you might
place in front of him, and in its set
ting, too. When you come to consider
that the sixty-fourth of carat is the
sixteenth Of grain you can appreciate
the nicely of the calculation. 1t is not
unlike estimating the weight Of snail
object, buried and half hidden in block
of mortar. 1t was the rarest thing for
him to err, and he could not only esti-
mate the weight Of a set stone, but could
detect the slightest flaw or imperfec'
tion, and his estimation of quality was
invariably accurate. He was one of the
few experts in colored stones in the
country. There are probably not more
than six men in the United States to-
day who are flrst-class judges of rubies,
emeralds and sapphires. The emerald
and the ruby are more precious than the
diamond, because they are rarer, and q
man might be in the business a lifetime
without handling more than dozen Of
these gems. Mr.. Harris knowledge Of
their quality and weight was little less
than marvellous.
Another jeweler, now retired, saw Mr..
Harris put to test in Maiden lane es-
tablishment about Is years ago. He
was asked the weight of rose-cut dia.
mond in an old-fashioned brooch. 1T
weighs four and a half carats," said Mr..
Harris, "but it is not worth what you
think it is, because it is imperfectly cut
on its under faces"
The diamond dealer who owned the
stone laughed, and said he was willing
to wager that not only was it perfect,
but that it weighed a trife more than
five carats. A silk hat was agreed upon,
and the stone, which was very dirty,
was removed from its setting and
weighed. 1t showed nearly four and a
half carats and no imperfection in the
cutting was visible. The chief lapidary
was called and the diamondwas cleaned.
Weighed second time it proved to be
precisely what Mr.. Harris had said.
The imperfection in the cut then be.
came visible. 1t was "out" 1-300th part
of an inch.
1t is said that Mr.. Harris wore silk
hats for quarter of n century, and
never had to pay for one, because he al.
ways won them on wagers.-PhiladeL

Manufacturing Opportunities.
Notwithstanding her vast stores of
natural treasures and raw materials,
New Mexico as yet has developed no
manufacturing industries.
Her people are but just emerging from
the pastoral stage, and have not learned
that the products of their focks and
herds can be worked up into articles of
use and commerce with more profit
than can be derived from them in
the crude form. New Mexico raises
great quantity Of wool, at least II 100000
pounds annually, and, although she has
the finest water power on the continent
and also an inexhaustible supply OF coal
with which to run mills, all this wool is
shipped abroad, and clothing and blan.
kets are bought in the east. Factories
for the production Of coarse and medium
grades Of cloth and blankets certainly
would pay here.
Great herds Of cattle roam the prairies
of New Mexico, and train loads Of hides
are shipped to the east, to be returned
in the form of leather; and yet leather
may be tanned here better and cheaper
than anywhere else on earth.
