Wears a Bullet in His Brain.

A peculiar case was begun in the
Superior Court in Santa Rosa, Cal, the
other day, by Fred Misee. 1t is for
the purpose of having his brother John
Misee, who is now in an insane asylum,
declared sane.
John Misee enjoys the distinction of
being the only man in this part of the
State who wears large-sized bullet in
his head, and he has enjoyed that dis
tinction for two years. Two years ago
he became tired of life, and taking a
forty-four calibre revolver he placed
it within few inches of his forehead
and fired. The ball made hole al
most as big as the end of mans
thumb, and why it did not kill him IS
mystery to medical men here.
He was laid up a few weeks, but
finally surprised his old companions
by appearing among them. The ply
sicians did not probe for the ball, fear
ing they would strike the brain, and
so it has never been disturbed. 1t
was their belief that the cartridge was
not very strong one, and that after
it penetrated the skull, the ball
dropped down between the brain and
the skull. About year ago he showed
signs of insanity, and when he was ex-
amined the physician ascribed his con-
dition to the presence of the bullet so
near his brain. Now it is claimed
that he is well again.

For Breakfast.

Sometimes even the most fastldious
woman forgets that the keynote Of
daintiness is struck by the morning
toilet. A model of all that she should
be at other times, her breakfast ap-
parel gives every outward evidence of
haste, and leaves much to be desired.
A woman who has made hasty
morning toilet is by no means a thing
of beauty. Therefore, she who is wise
valiantly foregoes the JOY OF the Tor
hidden nay. She rises betimes, sup
ported by the thought that of such stuff
martyrs are made, and after her matu-
final dip, as she arranges her hair as
becomingly as she would later in the
day for a luncheon or shopping ex-
petition, she finds herself at peace
with all the world, even including the
cook.
It's only little thing in the days
doings, but it tells. The woman who
presides at the breakfast table, neat,
fresh and rosy, is fulfilling part of her
mission in life
Her husband is as much stimulated
by her presence as by the fragrant cup
of Mocha which she dispenses, and,
though seemingly absorbed in his news
paper as he sips his favorite beverage,
in reality he sees every detail of the
dainty toilet, knowing that it was made
for his eyes alone, and, man-hke, APP
preciating it all the more for that very
reason.

A Queer Accident to a Car.

A very peculiar mishap to freight
train has Just come to the attention OF
the motive-power department of the
Panhandle in this city, and in its de-
tails it assumes the nature of miracle
as strange as those of old. The train
was running at rapid rate between
Xenia and Trebeins, distance OF four
miles. when the trucks of one Of the
cars gave way and jumped onto the
tracks of the Cincinnati, Hamilton
and Dayton road, which runs parallel
with the Pennsylvania at that point.
The trucks lighted square on the rails,
and continued running until they
smashed into the pilot of the Cincin-
natl, Hamilton and Dayton engine
running in the opposite direction,
The Panhandle train evidently did
not suffer any inconvenience owing to
the loss of trucks, as it was not discov-
cred until Trebeins was reached, and
then it was found that the body of the
freight car was held in position by
the couplings and had run two miles
without any wheels. The accident is
perhaps without parallel in annals
of railways. Although absolutely
true and vouched for by the motive
power department officials, it seems
stranger than felton, Columbus (Oh'O)

The Case Finally SIT Down for a Hearing
Mkt Friday.

In the Appellate Court this morning the
case OF the National Bank OF Commerce OF al.
vs. II. NJ. Smith et al. was continued TO next
Friday. Arnold Green appeared in behalf Of
the trustee of tho estate OF the late Amos ID.
Smith and asked permission Of the court to
sell certain personal property belonging TO the
estate i'm order To pay taxes and other neces-
sary expenses. J. T. Bodgett and Horny Almy
represented the compla!nants. The former
suggested that the matter was one for the full
court to pass upon and asked that the trustee
of the state, Charles M. Smith file sched-
ule Of the property in'his hands The estate.
Mr.. Blodgott said, IL was well known, was in
solvent, .and Mr. Green said that in 1892, when
the trustees tried TO sell some OF the property,
hey were brought into court and decree en-
tered directing that certain unproductive
realty should be sold before the personal prop
crty was sold and that the trustee! did not
now ask for any moderation of the decree en-
tered in 1892, hut simply desired to sell enough
property To pay the expenses he had enume
rated. He also said tnat the books of the
trustee had always been open TO the creditors
of the estate. Judge Stiness thought the case
was one for, the full court, and by consent of
counsel the case was set down for hearing ON
Friday next. His Honor suggested that the
trustee furnish Mr.. Blodgett with schedule
of the property in his hands, and the latter
agreed TO so do.
