Paris directed the manufacture of nitro
glycerin and dynamite for the govern
ment. As president of the committee
on explosives his labors discovered the
new smol1eless powder. In 1876 he was
made inspector-general of higher edu-
cation. His researches have had for
their object principally the reproduc-
ton of the substances which enter into
the composition of organized beings,
and his labors, being synthetic, opened
up a new field of science. The dyeing
trade has benefited infinitely by his ex-
periments in extracting dyes from coal
tar. He has written many valuable

After short stay he returned to COM

not until three years later that he re-

the wave of mahdism swept the whole

ing it between his hands, raises his
face toward Heaven, and, with his eyes
still closed, seems to pray. This hand
kerchief, he says, will allay all pain and
suffering if applied to the afflicted part,
if one has faith.
Schrader is a native of Wisconsin, of
German descent, 25 years old. Heis the
born with supernatural power. He says
he began healing at the age of II years.
He 'makes up" to resemble the Re-
deemer, and dresses in Christ's garb.
He says he never changes his clothes
until he dons new raiment; then thank
full patients remove his old clothes and
preserve bits as bars to disease and
cures for aches and pains. His garb
is black gown, over an ordinary cler
ical suit. He has an overdress like a
wide sash made of red material. His
beard is of reddish tint, his hair long
and dark and parted in the middle. He
carries a crucifX, but denies allegiance
or connection with any church, talks in
subdued tones, breaches occasionally
and is very ignorant.
An average of 800 people visit him
daily, many coming 100 miles. These
patients are chronic sufferers from
blindness, rheumatism, paralysis and
every form of disease, which he claims
to cure, and if he fails he charges the
patient with lack of faith. He has
promised to place new ewes in place of
pupctured and sightless orbs. He has
told deformed patients he can grow
arms and legs from stumps; there is
nothing impossible with him.
When through-with certain class of
patients he makes them believe they
feel better, but day or two shows them
in the old state. After several weeks
sojourn he has not effected simple
cure worthy of mention.

When the Anglo-Egyptian expedition
starts up the Nile it will be accom-

who for IL years was prisoner of the
khalifa, the successor of the mahdi,
in his capital in the East Soudan.
Slatin's career is one that is as full of
color as that of any other traveller in
Europe, with the exception, perhaps, of
Henry NJ. Stanley. In 1876, at the age of
20, Rudolph Slatin, born and educated
in Vienna, fired with desire to travel,

Good Use of Their Million.
The proposed payment to them of n
million dollars now in the United States
treasury to the credit of the Cheyenne
and Arapahoe Indians meets with great
favor among the members of these
tribes. They are making more progress
in learning the arts of peace than at
any time since the ratification of the
treaty opening Oklahoma to settlement.
They are building good houses, laying in
large supplies of agricultural imple-
ments, stock and grain and breaking
large acreage for spring crops. In
about year, by the terms of the last
treaty, these Indians will be thrown
upon their own resources. The agent,
Capt. A. E. Woodson, has been untiring
in his efforts to make them self-sus-
