Venus Mistaken For Edison's New
Light

The luminous planet Venus, which
has recently changed from a morning
to an evening star, is one of the most
beautiful and brilliant objects in the
heavens 1t is in the constellation
Aries and is visible until about nine
O'Clock p. M, when it sets behind the
western horizon. A rather amusing
incident in connection with this star
occurred few nights ago, when many
persons in this city and Middletown
claimed to have seen the wonderful
new light said to have been dis
covered by the wizard Edison. 1t was
reported here that the light had been
seen by several persons in Middletown
and consequently those interested were
ON the lookout. Sure enough there
appeared shortly after dark the de-
scrlbed bright object in the sky in a
northwestern direction, outclassing
everything in brilliancy and resem-
bling the familiar lantern tied to the
tail of kite. This is the way that
the great inventor uses the light and
there is some excuse for the erroneous
impression. The mysterious object is
nothing but tue planet Venus, which
few weeks ago was at its most daZ-
Zling brightness and even now LOOKS
like miniature moon. Our attention
has been several times called to this
matter and we have given the true
explanation to cOntrovert this popular
error.

Whitmore Released from Monte
Vue.

Upon receipt of an order from Chief
Judge McSherry, the authorities at
Montevue Hospital released from Gus
tody the person of Reuben A. Whit
more, the Hermit" who was COM
mitted some weeks ago TO that institu-
ton by u jury as being of unsound
mind and unable to properly take care
of himself. The matter aroused con-
siderable feeling in the community
and the affair was called to the atten-
tion of DR.. Lee, secretary of the State
Lunacy Commission, for investigation.
He could not act in the matter without
the request of some authorized person
and the case rested until DR.. r. Il.
Smith, the physician at Montevue,
presented certificate to the court that
Whitmore was of sufficient soundness
of mind and body to attend to his per-
son and manage his affairs, and that
no advantage could come from further
confinement. Whitmore was released
thereupon, subject to further orders
from the Court.

BY the recent death of Count Ernest
Won Dornberg the town of Regensburg,
in Bavaria. comes into an unexpected
legacy of 100000 marks. The author
of this benefaction was the last of one
branch of the Dornberg family, which
holds great estates in Austria, Prussia
and Baden. In his younger days he cut
q brilliant figure at the court of Vienna,
and as captain of hussars distinguished
himself highly on the field of Magenta.
He then took up horticulture with exc
travagant ardor, his park and gardens
in the envrons of Regensburg eclipsing
the gardens of Schonbrunn. Suddenly,
for reasons unknown, he dropped all
interest in his favorite pursuit and with
drew altogether from human society.
His castle was allowed to go to rack
and ruin, his Conservatives fell to
pieces from neglect and his costly
plants moldered away. Every morn

WORSE THAN DISEASE.
Woes of Dutch Physician Who BUILT
a HNgienic House.n

Woes of "a Dutch Physician Who Duilt
Hygienic House,"
What is called "hygienic house" has
just been built by Dutch physician
and illustrates rather forcibly the pos
sibility of preventive measures being
worse to undergo than several mala-
dies, says the New York Times. The
walls of this extremely modern and
scientific dwelling are made of parallel
plates of ground glass several inches
apart, with n concentrated solution of
alum or salts OF soda between them.
These plates are fixed in metal frames,
by which they are built together. The
roof is not translucent and is made OF
materials which are impervious to heat,
thus keeping out the sunshine and hold
ing in the warmth of the rooms. The
house is entered by an underground
door, TO which a stair leads. The air
also enters underground and passes
through a microbe filter of cotton, wool
and glycerine. 1t circulates through
the rooms by means of gratings and
escapes under the roof. The house is
heated by the sun. except when n stove
is found TO be necessary. The salt solu-
tions between the panes absorb the
heat by day and give it forth by night.
In summer the air is cooled by its pas
sage underground and tempers the
tropical warmth of the climate. The
illumination inside is diifused from all
parts of the walls. but there are no VIM
dows out of which the inhabitants can
look, and it is difficult to see how they
will be able to endure life in place
so horribly wholesome-and dull.

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed when the languid exhausted feeling
prevails, when the liver is torpid and slug
is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious
fever. No medicine will act more surely
in cnouteracting and freeing the system
from the malarial poison. Headache, Indi-
gestion, Constipation, Dizziness yield to
