From the Chicago Tribune.
Washington, y. c., June %. Steps were
taken to-day to secure the release from
the work-house OF John Hendley 20 years
of age. who is serving a fifteen days sew
tence for habltual drunkenness. and to Sc
cure him employment at his profession.
Hendley, who IS one Of the most remark
able men ever employed by the United
States government. has earned by his
rare genius, the name Of the wizard or
tho National Museum"
It Is said Of him that he can make any
thing from a diamond to "a stuffed ele-
phant and his reproduction OF fishes,
fruit minerals. and mankind are marvels
of human skill and ingenuity. Ihere Is
scarcely case In the great national mu-
scum of Smithsonian Institution that does
not contain specimens Of the Wizards"
handy work lie has made artificial pears,
apples, peaches lemons, watermelons and
canteloupes for some Of the leading men
Hendley made for the late James G.
Blaine a watermelon, split Open expos
ing It's rosy interior, and would not let
Mr. Blaine take II from his den until a
real melon had been brought in and open
ed for comparison. After gazing at the
natural and the artificial fruit admiringly
Tor a few moments the Maine statesman
turned to Hendley and remarked:
"You have been rightly termed the
Wizard This work Is remarkable-al-
most Incredible"
Il don't know. 1t just comes to me from
the great somewhere. When ! enter my
den to commence work on a specimen /
never know just what am going to make

I die my secret will die with me, as l can
not communicate It to mortals. / don t
know what to communicate. The stuff /
make each piece of work with comes TO me
suddenly in solitude, like a dream or a
revelation"
Several years ago one Of the officials at
the National Museum read in a Chicago
newspaper a reward advertisement IN
which the advertiser offered to give $500
to any man who could supply him with an
artificial ear true to nature. The adver-
tisement was handed to the Wizard.
Il can do It," he said, after reading the
! clipping.
The Chicago man was communicated

ter had bitten his left ear off, Hendley
made an artificial organ Of hearing, per-

mans head, assumed and maintained the

Test shows the ISrag-Jorgensen Not
to BE a Humane Gun.
From the Chicago Tlmes-IIerald.

FROM the 1A4Cd5O 4luts-f1eFdlQ.
Fort Riley, Kan, June 21.-An official
test Of the new military rifle. the Krag-
Jorgensen, was made on dead bodies at
this post Saturday under the direction Of
DR.. J. d. Griffith Of Kansas City, member
Of the United States Association Of Mill
tary Surgeons, and chairman of the ma
tional committee on testing new guns
assisted by a dozen attending surgeons
and photographers.
The test has been in prospect for some
weeks, but as the Kansas law is very
strict about the transportation Of cadav-
ers and the bodies had to be brought from
Kansas City, it was found necessary TO
postpone the test from time to time until
the officers Of the law could be eluded
The object Of the test was to find out
the relative effects of the use of the
Krag-Jorgensen gun, from a humanita-
rian point of view, as compared with
other army rifles. This test has demon-
strated TO the minds Of those who particle
pated that the Krag-J orgensen gun cam
not be called human gun. This IS a
repetition Of the verdict reached some
months ago at test at Fort Leaven-
worth. the correctness Of which was dis

FROM the Enliduelpuld lliueS.
A verdict Of death from marasmus was
rendered by the coroner's jury yesterday
in the case Of H-year-oid Charles Helm
isch, Of 2416 North Second street. The
dead boy was an infant physically and
mentally. He weighed but IS pounds and
was not above three feet high. He had
been absolutely powerless to help him
self from the time Of his birth, was una
BILE to move himself, and in fact showed
no sign Of sensibility.
During the seventeen years Of his life
he has been handled like an infant. Since
his mother died, six years ago, his father
cared for him alone. Mr.. Heinisch Is too

When We Are Parted

W HeW we ATe Harted--
When we are parted let me lie
In some far corner of thy heart,
Silent, and from the world apart.
Like a forgotten melody;
Forgotten of the world beside
Cherished by one, and one alone.
For some loved memory of its own;
So let me in thy heart abide
When we are parted.

Health Keeps Men Young.

Women are not the only ones who
are sensitive about their ages. A man
doesn't like to be told that he isgetting
old. Health keeps man yonng. 1t
doesn't make any difference if he has
lived eighty years. If they have been
healthy years, he will be hale and hear
ty and won't look within twenty years
as old as he is. Good digestion and
rich, red pure blood make people look
youthful. DR.. Pierce,s Golden Medi-
cal Discovery makes rich, red pure
blood. 1t makes health in the right
way. 1t works according to the right
theory and i'm years of practice, it has
proved that the theory is absolutely
correct. 1t begins at the beginning-be-
gins by putting the stomach, liver and
bowels into perfect order, but it begins
its good work on the blood before it
finishes with the digestive system. 1t
searches out disease germs wherever
they may be and forces them out of the
body. All druggists keep the "Discov-
cry"

AN ENJOYABLE AFFAIR.

A party Of ladies and gentlemen yes
terday morning gave n basket picnic
in honor OF several ladies, members
OF Grace Church Guild. who are leay-
ing the city for homes elsewhere. The
steamer Eclipse was boarded at $50
o'clock and her accommodations were
taxed TO their limit. The run was
made along the shore to Cathlamet bay
to Swenson's Landing. where the picnic
grounds are situated. Trout fishing,
stories. songs. and other amusements
occupied the day, while at noon a most
bountiful and substantial luncheon was
spread. Bear Greek. is one OF the most
noted streams in this vicinity. and all
sportsmen are well acquainted with it.
1t abounds in fine trout, and the seen
cry along its banks is most picturesque.
1t was the unanimous opinion OF all
in the party that the railroad grade
work. along the banks Of the Columbia,
is the most solid work Of the kind ever
put UP on this coast. The contractors,
Corey Brothers, have earned an enyia-
bic reputation, while the railroad COM
pany seems determined to spare neither
pains nor expense to build the best
possible line Of road that ingenuity and
modern science can produce.
The picnickers returned late in the
afternoon well satisfied with their out
ing, and recommend a day on Bear
creek to anyone seeking a few hours
