DETECTING A MALINGERER.
a Shrewd Way to Protect an Insurance
Company.

The person who shams sickness or u
bodily defect or injury is technically
known as malingering. Malingerer us i,
fine art has caused the accident insurance
companies much trouble and expense
first and last, but the progress of science
makes it easier year by year to detect
cases of malingeriDg and to battle the un-
holy schemes of those that indulge in it.
y remarkable case of such detection is
related of u man who claimed an injury
while ut work which caused him to lose
the sight of his left eye. The case was
brought to trial and an eminent occulst
proved him perjurer. Knowing that
colors red and green make black, the
specialist introduced Il black card on
which there were few words written
with green ink The supposed one. eyed
man was then directed to put on II pair
of spectacles with two different glasses,
the one for the left eye consisting of or
binary glass, while the one for the right
eye being red. He was then handed the
card and told to read what was written
on it. He did this without hesitation,
and the cheat was exposed. The mem.
bers of the jury tried the glasses, and on
covering up the plain glass over the left
eye they could not read the writing, the
green ink and the red glass making the
entire card appear black. The man had
read the writing with his pretended sight
less eye.-Niews.

'ChrJ-DclOre-tnc-l Horse Principle Re
ceives Recognition.
President l.. :. Woodbury., of the Great
Falls Iron Works, has in contemplation
the construction of what he chooses to
term horsecycle, whereby horse can
propel II four-whceled vehicle Oh ordinary
ground at the rate of .one mile in fifty
nine seconds. The proposed machine can
be made in two forms, either one of
which Mr. Woodbury. thinks will fill the
bill, says the Great Falls ''Leadcrn
The vehicle is in the form of an ordi-
nary buggy. Instead of. being hitched
ahead, the horse will occupy Il position
between the four wheels and operate IL
sort of treadmill. Should the velocity he
so n eat rs to attract too much air, then
it is proposed to inclose the entire ma
chnc-horse, rider and all, in whale
back or torpedo-cut shell, the propelling
operation to remain the same. The seat
of the rider will be directly behind or
above the horse. President Woodbury. is
so confident of success that he is willing
to back his bonds against silver that Il
mile can be made in lifty-ninc seconds
or better. The machine will be IL novel
one, and, if it should prove a success,
will undoubtedly be world-breaker in
records for fast travelling.
