The Life Plant.

Visitors to Bermuda often bring
back to this country as souvenir
of their trip the leaves of an inter
esting plant of the house leek fam
ily. It is known as the life plant,
and when the leaves begin to shrivel
and fade they send out little shoots
which in turn bear leaves that con-
tinue to grow and remain fresh and
green for months. The leaves are
about A inches long, rich green in
color and of a smooth waxen tex
ture. If you take one of the leaves
and pin it to the wall indoors, it will
begin to sprout within three or four
days, be it winter or summer. At
first the top portion of the leaf will
begin to wither and shrivel up, and
this is likely to continue until the
upper half has lost its green color.
Then tiny white roots will sprout
from the edges, and in time diminu-
tive green leaves will appear on
these. These little offshoots will
sometimes grow to be an inch long
and contain several pairs of leaves.
The limit of their existence seems
to depend upon the amount Of heat
and light they can obtain. Harper S

LOOKS LIKE MURDER.
circumstances Appear to Point That way
in the Pleva Case.

The question is not yet settled con-
corning the manner in which Michael
Pleva came to his death Friday after
noon, but the developments so far
brought to light seem to point very
suspicicusly to foul play. There is one
very small circumstance which does
not appear clear as yet, but which will
have great deal to do with clearing
up the mystery. That question is as
to whether Pleva left the house after
breakfast or not. Mrs. Pleva says he
did, but she did not allege this until
after the authorities had put her
through the sweating system for about
an hour and had gone over all the
circumstances connected with the case
with her. She then seemed suddenly
to remember that he had left the house
and that he acted strangely after he
got home.
The other facts Of the story as
brought out by the authorities seem to
be about as follows:
Pleva ate his breakfast at o'clock
Friday morning. He had three fried
eggs, a piece of bread and a cup of
black coffee. 1t is alleged that he
noticed that the coffee was given him
out of another coffee pot from the one
used by his wife to serve the two
boarders who lived with them. He
remarked about this circumstance and
asked why it was that his coffee had
been made SO strong. 90 You must
have put the devil in it, he remarked.
So much fuss was made about it that
it is said that one of the boarders tried
to get taste of it, but before he could
taste it Mrs. Pleva caught up the pot
and threw the contents out of doors.
Here is where the break in the story
comes in. Mrs. Pleva says that her
husband left the table and came down
town. The boarders state that he was
taken violently i'll and began vomiting.
They went away to work while Pleva
went to bed. He instructed his wife
to go for something to relieve him.
She left the house and did not return
until after her husband had died.
Then she notified a neighbor and the
neighbor called in the police.
Friday evening Drs. Windesheim
and Pugh held a postmortem exam
nation of the remains of Pleva. The
stomach was taken out, and some of
the matter emitted from the stomach
were carefully examined. The symp-
toms of the case appeared like arsenic
al poisoning, but the physicians up to
the time of the inquest were unable to
state positively whether it was arsenic
or some other poison in the stomach.
The inquest over the remains of
Michael Pleva was to have been held
at Justice Skaters Office this afternoon,
but owing to the fact that the physi
clans were not ready to report on what
kind of material was found in the
stomach it was adjourned until next
Monday afternoon at o'clock.

CAMILLE" WAS GRAND.
The Greatest PLAY Yet Presented by the
Gibney Company.


"Camille" was the attraction at the
Rhode opera house Friday evening.
and such a presentation 1t was as is
seldom seen in this city. It was q
play of remarkable pathos and beauty
and brought out the strongest qualities
of the players in most successful man.
ner. 1t was without doubt the best
play which has been seen in Kenosha
in years. The work of Mrs. Gibney
was simply superb, and her support
was all that could have been desired.
The play is one of extremely emotional
character and it is as an emotional
actress that Mrs. Gibney appears at
her best. Many higher priced COM
pany has played here a great deal more
poorly.
1t is a credit to the city to say that
the opera house was full to witness the
performance and every member of the
big audience is of the one opinion that
the play was something extraordinary.
The company has been requested to
repeat the play Sunday evening. The
matter is under adyisement and an an
nouncement will be made this evening
concerning whether the request will be
granted. 1t is hoped that it will be.

Eating Clay.

That large number of people
live and thrive on diet of earth
may sound incredible to those who
have never heard of the clay eaters
of the south, but in Alabama there
are many persons whose daily food
is clay dug from the banks of the
small mountain streams. It S oily
and almost without taste and GER
tainly contains nourishment of some
sort, as it is almost the entire diet
of the inhabitants of these localities.
When the clay eater begins this line
of diet, a piece the size of a pea is
all that can be taken with safety.
After they have grown up on it
piece as large as the fist of the aver
age man may be taken with i'm
punity. Clay eaters enjoy average
health and live to a good old age,
clearly demonstrating that there is
nothing specially injurious in this
most curious article of food. The
most marked effect produced by it
is change in the appearance. The
skin grows sallow after. awhile, be-
coming a pale, unwholesome look
ing yellow, almost the color of the
clay itself. Those who begin clay
eating in their infancy have the look
of premature age and never wear
the hue of health or vitality. They
are thin, angular and spiritless, al
though rarely i'll. They are full OF
belief in signs and superstitions.
They raise a little corn, potatoes,
peas and a few other vegetables.
The corn is converted into whisky,
which is probably the only luxury
in which they indulge.-New York
Ledger.

JAMES FLETT DEAD.
A Well Known Resident of somers Passes
to the Unknown.

TO Cu6 OukuOWu.
James Flett, we'll known resident
of the town of Somers, died at his home
Thursday night of diseases incident to
old age, aged IS years. He has been
sick since Christmas of heart disease.
The funeral will take place Sunday
afternoon at o'clock from the late
home.
The deceased was native of Scot
land, born April %, 1922. He was
reared to manhood in the land of his
birth. In 1916 he was married to Miss
Ann Heddle. During his early man
hood he followed the life of a sailor and
became a quarter master in the EN-
ploy of the Oriental Navigation COM
pany. He resigned to make trip to
the gold mines of Australia, meeting
with fair success. In 1855 he started
with his wife and family for this coun-
try, eventually locating in Somers,
where he purchased a farm on which
he resided to the time of his death.
During his long years spent in Somers
he gained the good will and respect OF
the entire community by his ire
proachable life and christian charity.
He and his wife were among the first
members of the Presbyterian church of
Somers. Unto this worthy couple have
been born nine children.

He Has only 1ss Points to Make to Ma
lone,s 26s to win.


The second game in the series be-
tween j. L. Malone, the worlds cham
pion pool player, and Peter Schmitt, of
this city, was played at the Schmitt
billiard parlors Friday night. The
game began at $50 without any delay.
The rooms were full again and several
Racine gentlemen we're among the
spectators. The game was interesting
throughout, developing some very skill
full playing on both sides. Schmitt
played cautious game from the start
and surprised even some of his most
ardent supporters with his skill and
good Judgment. He seemed to play
much more even game than Malone
who did at times alternate remarkable
errors with brilliant plays. The score
I'D to Friday evening stood:
Malone. 1872
ScnmltL-- -zOI
The game this evening, the last Of
the series, will be played at the same
place as usual. Malone has 268 points
to make to Schmitt's 1873. The contest
has been very close up to date and in
consequence great interest attaches to
the game this evening.
