fortunate claimant for the opening dance.
Although the customs pertaining to the
celebration of Halloween vary little,
according 10 locality, the general features
are the same. Burning nuts has from
time immemorial been considered one OF
the most potent charms. The names OF
lads and lassies are given each nut as it
is laid on the fire, and as they burn quiet
ly side by side or fly apart the course of
courtship may be foretold. Snapdragon
is one of the oldest devices whereby the
assurance Of love is made doubly sure or
estrangement foretold. The dragons,
which must be prepared before the party
consist of strips of paper with verses
Of paper written on them. These are
then folded very small, wrapped snugly
in tea lead or tinfoil and then placed in a
large dish and covered with water, over
which alcohol is poured. This should be
done at the side of the dish, allowing it
filter down gently, in order that the two
liquids may not mix. The alcohol is
then set on fire when each person in turn,
snatching one OF the snapdragons from
the dish, may find thereon his future
fortune.
A word of caution regarding this test
is that the dish containing the alcohol
should be placed where there is no dan
ger of the drops of burning alcohol set
ting fire to anything, and that the "drag-
ons," as fast as removed, should be
placed on dish to cool

poured into the halves of English wal
nuts, in which short strings for wlcks
have been laid. Two OF these at time
may be named and lighted and floated
in a tub OF water, the way in which they
ride indicating their future career.
The needle ceremony is performed by
each person putting needle to float in a
basin of water. This requires skill, but
can be done by placing the needle on a
bit OF tissue paper and laying this gently
on the water. Soon the paper becomes
wet and sinks to the bottom, leaving the
needle on the surface. Owing to their
capllarlty the needles will soon begin to
act as though imbued with life, some

was due to the infrmities Of old age.
(Gen. Neal Dow was born in Portland.
Me-, March 20, 1904. In the campaign 1or-
temperance no single man has achleved
greater results than he, and none mas Ia
bored more faithfully in the face OF oppo-

Two years later, in 1889, an eHort was

40 decided the question in his favor. The
same year the legislature was appealed to,
and in 1886 the first state prohibitive law
was passed. In l849 a bill providing n ore
stringent penalties was enacted, but the
following year the law was repealed. In
1856 it was again put in force and has since
remained on the statute books.
Gen. Dow was twice mayor of Port

declined to accept. He also served two
terms III the legislature. Like most prom

BosToN is to have another subway,
not for shriel<ing electrics, cold, noxious
vapors and jostling crowds, but an ar
tistic promenade, where, removed from
the distressing noise of the busy city,
one may revel IN art treasures, feasts
of color blending and surroundings
which almost intoxicate the senses.
This wonderful subway will lead from
fremont street to Keith's theater,
and was opened to the public the
other day. twill excel in gorgeousness
the Washington street lobby of the
house, which is to-day classed among
the sights of Boston.

KANSAS CITY papers noted the pres
ence in that city of Bluejacket, the last
big chief of the Shawnee Indians. He
is 80 years old, and was on his way to
Kansas to locate the grave of Prophet,
the Shawnee chief, who died in that
territory in 1889. This Prophet was a
brother of the famous chief Tecumseh.
and succeeded him as the head man of
the tribe. After Tecumseh's death he
led the Shawnees in the battle of Tip
pecanoe, in Indiana In 1895 he
moved to Missouri, and two years later
moved to Kansas.
Willmar tribune., 1897-10-12

The germ of yellow fever is a little
rod with rounded ends. Sanarelli be-
ieves that it is taken into the human
system either by air that is breathed or
water that is drank. If the lining
membranes of the body are in healthy
condition, it can not get through them
and produce infection. But any dis
turbance of digestion, as by abuse of
alcoholic and iced drinls-above all in
persons newly arrived in countries
where the disease exists gives oppor-
tunity for the entrance of the microbe.
