Exhibition by the "Poison King,

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
HAGERSTOWN, Ind, Oct. 29.-Last night
De Beeno, 1.-The Poison King" as he styles
himself, gave an exhibition at this place
His audience was small. but the interest he
aroused was intense. He took a large hand
full of sulphur matches and dissolved their
heads in a glass of water the water becom-
ing yellow and thick. He then put into the
mixture quantity Of beladonna, a portion
of strychnine a considerable amount of
arsenic and some hellebore Before mixing
the pOisons he invited any physician to ex-
anime the drugs. DIR. Walls, of Richmond
a noted physician, examined them and care
fully tested them. He pronounced the drugs
poison and declared that if the poison in the
glass was mixed in a sufficient quantity of
food 1t would kill hundreds of people. De
Beeno invited DR.. Walls to examine his
pulse. 1t was ninety-two. Then De Beeno
swallowed the contents of the glass. His
pulse Immediately fell to forty but he
showed no other effect of the deadly poison
he had just taken He claims to be in
sensible to physical pain and to prove his
statement placed redhot dipper on his
tongue, drove q nail into his skull, thrust
redhot hat pins into his wrist ate burning
birthstone and playfully plunged knives in
his body. His immunity from the effects Of
poison was discovered by the physicians in
Bellevue Hospital, who experimental with
him and gave him a certificate in which
they express their wonder and testify 10
the genuineness of the case. De Beeno is a
native of Pensacola, Fla, and is the son of
Creole father and Egyptian mother.

MEETING AT LOUISVILLE.
Final Events Won by Lady Noting

rest Herr-Other Races.

LOUISVILLE, KY. Oct. 29.-The third
and most successful meet of the Louisville
Driving and Fair Association came to a
close this afternoon. The splendid weather
that has prevailed almost throughout the
meet marked the last day. There were four
races on the card, two new and two unfin-
ished The 2:10 pace, unfinished from yes
terday, was the first decided. Nicol BIS
victory over Lady Nottingham yesterday
was not repeated to-day, for the bay mare
won three heats easily, Nicol B. being the
only horse that could pace near her. Lem
once having been distanced in the 2:15 trot,
the race narrowed down to Caid and Emily.
1t was one-sided. Emily needing no urging
to take the two heats necessary for the
race. A Village Farm entry also captured
the next race, the 2:3O trot. The Monk was
favorite and his easy win of straight heats
proved that he was justly Georgeanna
challenged him in the stretch, but the
gelding drew away easily every time. The
2:18 pace also partoOk of the nature of
match race, there being but two entries
Forest Herr and Joe Bailey. In the first
heat there was little choice between them
Hubinger entry had the call on account of
an easy victory. He took the second heat
also by half length and won the third
and final heat as he pleased.
The nearest approach to an accident Of
the entire meet happened in the third heat
of the 2:1O pace, when Colonel Thornton
and Gazettee collided at the head of the
stretch while trying to move out to avoid
Prince HAL who had broken. The sull0ies
were smashed, but the horses and drivers
escaped injury. Summaries:

About shoes.

It is not often We have a great
deal to say about our stock of shoes
and when we do mention them, II
is only for those who have never
bought a pair from US. Anyone
who has ever worn pair knows
their merits without us telling
them. Our heavy and increasing
trade ought to be sufficient guar
antee that the goods We handle are
alright and sold at a living price.
If those readers Of the EXAMINER
who have never bought shoes of us
will call at our store we will show
them not only the largest and
handsomest line in town, but like
wise the most serviceable. The
stock includes mems ladies and
children's shoes of every style,
shape and kind that is made.
Our motto, "The most and best
goods for the money" An inspec-
ton asked and prices quoted.

Ube Reason,

By reference to the official roster
of the Utah Agricultural College at
Logan it may be seen that Idaho
had rs students in attendance at
the opening of that institution and
the number may be increased to
100 before the holidays. Now
what's the matter with our Idaho
schools? Why are not some of
these attending the University,
the State Normal at Albion or at
Lewiston? Do the wild and woody
problems of the state superintend-
ent disgust their parents to seek
for their children q plain, practi-
cal education, or are these young
men and young ladies now at Lo-
gan afraid that they will be called
upon at home to kill time in solv-
ing problems that will not be
reached in the common schools of
the state in the next third or fourth
generation. -Blackfoot News.
The trouble is that our own state
schools are too far away. Another
reason is that most of our people
are members of the Mormon church
and they prefer to send their
children to Logan where they can
have a chance to attend church
services Of their own belief. The
state schools of Idaho will never be
patronized to any extent by Bear
Lake county people at least.

Homestead Law.

There seems to be general opin-
ion among settlers that hauling
timber upon or building on a piece
of ground gives the party owning
such Improvements right to such
land over every other person, and
that such Improvements will hold
the land for a certain length of
time, as against any other party
desiring to enter the same. This
is not the case. The man who
settles on piece Of ground, before
filing, has no more right than any
one else. If man desires a piece
of land as a homestead, he must
first make his entry of the land,
and ie such entry Is allowed, he
can then 60 and make his settle.
ment, six months being allowed,
by the homestead law, in which to
establish his residence on the land.
1t will be seen by this that d man
gains nothing by having improve
merits on the land, In fact he is
running the risk of losing such im-
provements if they were put there
before he had taken the precautions
to file on the land.
