Shaving Inv Nfachinerv

Shaving man in twenty-five seconds
is feat deserving of the highest
praise and reward by all such as value
their time. The feat has been rem
dered easy Of performance by the CON
struction of a shaving machine of
wood. reported TO have been made by
one Melchoir Farkas, convict in the
penitentiary of the city of Szcgedin,
Hungary. Farkas was put to iabor in
the cabinet-making shop of the prison.
and, taking to his work with will,
he soon displayed great inventive in
genuity. With his machine he is said
to have shaved all the inmates OF the
prison, nearly $50 in number, within
less than an hours time. The report
fails to state, however, TO what extent
the shaving by machinery did or did
not succeed in giving comfort to the
sufferer In the chair.

Tho "Palmctto state"

The Charleston News and Courier
thus explains the origin Of South Car
olinas sobriQuet, "the Palmetto State:'
"On June 2S, 1776, a force of less than
100 Carolinians, under command of
Moultrie, protected by the rude for
tification on Sullivans Island, in
Charleston harbor, made of the trunks
of the palmetto, repulsed the attacks OF
n British fleet under command of Sir
Peter Parker, and when the State of
South Carolina was organized, the
State seal, which was first used in
May, 1T77, was made to commemorate
this victory. \ palm tree, growing
erect ON the seashore, represents the
strength of the fort, while at its base
an oak tree, torn from the ground and
deprived of its branches, recalls the
British feet, built Of oak timber, over
come by the palmetto"

A professor in the University of
Geneva has invented an apparatus
which will, it is claimed, enable al
most every deaf person to hear, even
those whose hearing seems to be en-
tirely destroyed. 1t is called the
microphonograph and magnifies sound
on the same principle as magnifying
lens increases light. A battery is
used with more or less strength, ac-.
cording to the patient to be dealt with.
Absolute deafness is said to be ex-
tremely rare; the nerves are dull and
unresponsive, but not totally dead,
save in very extreme cases. The in
ventor of this apparatus is preparing
to exhibit at the Paris Exposition a
machine by means of which an audi
ence of 10000 deaf persons, if so
many can be gotten together, may
listen to lectures and have the full
benefit of entertainments of various
sorts,

Italians in New York.

The census of 1890 credited New
York with an italian population of 49,
951, which has not been reduced in
the last seven years. Mulberry Bend
Park borders on representative
italian quarter. In thatregion Italian
signs, italian shops and italian bank
ers abound; italian mothers tend their
children, usually busying themselves
with something else at the same time;
Italian laborers, for the moment un-
employed, sit on the benches, or talk
together, usually with some apparent
excitement in groups in the street.
Where there are Italians in numbers
there is bound to be animation, and
the Mulberry street side of the Null
berry Bend Park is one of the most
animated centres of New York.
Most of the Italians in New York
are very poor, and are i'll housed and
coarsely fed, and have much appar-
entity to lower their spirits. But they
seem never to feel any worse than they
can help. They are industrious and
very frugal, and save money. Some
ol IL tney gamble away, ana some is
stolen from them by swindlers, but q
good deal stays by them. Most of
them were pinched bypoverty at home
before they came to New York, and
knew worse things than they expert
ence here. That seems to help their
philosophy. At any rate, no part of
the population of New York endures
hardships with better grace or adapts
itself more patiently and easily to its
environment. If there is a chance to
be miserable, he neglects it as far as
he can. His wife and his children
are like him in these particulars.
They borrow no trouble. When the
sun shines they bask in it provided it
is not too hot); when it rains they get
under cover; they have plenty of So
ciety, and like it, and for what they
cannot have they work and wait. .-Rar-
per's Weekly.

The widely known eccentric charac-
ter, known as Mateo, the cross man,
was found dead just outside of his
cabin at Abita Springs, La, by a
Choctaw Indian day or two since.
Mateo has been one of the most
unique characters of eastern Louisiana
for the past thirty-five years. He al
ways wore from seventy-fve to 100
crosses attached to his clothing, and
was craZed on religion. Orleans
