INTERNATIONAL CRICKET
Match Between the Philadelphia and
Oxford EIeyeus

OXFORD. England, June 7.-When the UNI
pire ordered the stumps drawn for the day
on Christ Church college grounds at 6:45 D.
M, because of the increasing darkness, Ok
ford was all out for 1863 runs. Bailey and
Ralston, of the Philadelphia team, were still
at bat. The match did not develop any bril-
liant playing on either side. The Americans,
however, acquitted themselves well most of
the time. They found the ground loose and
slippery and several members of the team
still felt the effects Of the sea voyage. King s
bowling for the Philadelphians was one of
the best feature of the match and his grit
elected no end Of commendation. Aside
from Kings work, Bailey's hit and the field
ing Of the American team there was little to
distinguish the contest from the ordinary run
of cricket engagements.

Charge of ETIibustering.


Charge of FIIibustering.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, June I'm
the United States court Judge Locke
today handed down a decision in the
case of the steamer Three Friends,
charged with violating the neutrality
laws by carrying a f1libustering ex-
Eedition to Cuba, and also as an armed
vessel, dismissing the libel for for
felture. In giving the decision Judge
Locke said: "The evidence in this case
Tails to show any testimony proving
that the vessel was fitted out and
armed within the limits of the United
States. The further charge that the
vessel took on additional arms or am
munition on the island of Navassa,
which is American SOIL was not con-
firmed by the testimony
Three other cases are pending
against the vessel, but they are likely
to be dismissed, as the evidence is
much the same as in the present case.
The district attorney will await ad-
vices from Washington as to what
future action to take in the present
case.

HERMOSILLO, Mex. June THE evidence
is accommodating that the western coast of

Chinese twenty centuries or more ago. The
stone, situated in the Magdalena district, this
state, recently discovered with Chinese char
acters inscribed upon 1t. has just been visited
by Sen Yup, well-educated Chinaman of
Guaymas The latter copied the inscription,
and from the translation already completed it
is shown that the characters were inscribed
on the stone over twenty centuries ago.
It is also learned that there are ancient
Chinese tombs and mounds near the Jojoba
mining camp, this state. These tombs and
mounds have never been explored, as they
are in a rough and almost impenetrable
mountain section of country.

XETith better understanding OF the
w transient nature of the many phys
cal ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle eefforts-pleasante efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. It's beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that ii is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating tho
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
.ie, which is manufactured by the Cab
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one

Grading tho Rule.

One of the regulations at the new
Congressional library in Washington is
that visitors must carry no parcels into
the building. So says the Post, of that
city, and then goes on to relate an anus
ing occurrence: A rather tall, broad
shouldered young woman arrived at the
door of the library, having in her hand
a neat brown paper package. mo bun
dies are allowed inside the building"
said the attendant. "You must leave it
here till you come out" The young
woman objected. The man said it was
the rule. The young woman said it was
absurd. The man was firm. He must
obey orders. The young woman hest
tated; then she undid the parcel, hung
several pairs of black hose over her arm.

SCIENTIFIC REASON GIVEN.
Why the Eyes of a Painted Portrait Fol-
low the Observer.

Wollaston's curious discovery was
that by adding to each pair of eyes a
nose directed to the right or the left,
the eyes lose their front direction, and
look to the right or left, according TO
the direction of the nose. By means of
a flap representing the lower features
in different position, as DR.. Wollaston
remarks, "a lost look of devout abstrac-
ton in an uplifted countenance of in
quisitive archness in the leer of a
younger face turned downward and OBJ
liquely toward the opposite side"
AS by changing the direction of the
lower features we change the direction
of the eyes, says Notes and Queries, so
by changing our position, the eye of the
portrait apparently follows us. If a
vertical line be drawn through the tip
of the nose and half way between the
eyes, there will be the same breadth of
head, of cheek, of chin and of neck on
each side of this middle line, and each
iris will be in the middle of the whole
eye. If we now move to one side, the
apparent horizontal breadth of every
part of the head and face will be d.
minished, but the parts on each side of
the middle line will be diminished equal
ly, and at any position, however oblique,
there will be the same breadth of face
on each side of the middle line. and the
iris will be in the center of the whole
of the eyeball, SO that, being on fat
surface, the iris will be seen in front of
the picture or obliquely.

EFFECT OF MUSIC.
The Nervous System Influenced by Diff
ferent Kinds of Sounds.

The old story that Saul when out OF
temper used to summon David to play
the harp, and found the music to be a
sedative, may prove to be more than q
simple historic incident, for both Char
cot and Tarchanow have declared that
musical sounds are a remedial agency
in disease which no physician can af-
ford to ignore, says the New York
Herald.
Mr.. Warthin, of Michigan, who has
given great deal of thought to this SUBJ
ject, asserts that different kinds Of
sounds are more effective than drugs in
the cure of disease. For instance, he
boldly assures us that the music Of
Valkyrie will increase perspiration,
and, therefore, cure certain forms of
ailment caused by checking its flow.
The operative energy is not the music
as such, but the peculiar vibrations
made by it. Tannhauser, on the other
hand, is vibratory soporifc and in
duces serene state of mind and body.
NJ. Coriveaud, of Paris, asserts that
violin playing is at least temporary
remedy for sciatica. He adduces the in
stance of a patient who found almost
instant relief in that way and who sue
cessfully resorted to whenever threat
ened with an attack.
Perhaps this is an appeal to the i'm
agination, but what matters it if the
patient is cured? Perhaps, again, there
is law hidden somewhere in the pile
of apparent impossibilities-one which
will some time be discovered for our
benefit. We never smile with increduli-
ty at anything in these woodworking

HOW DOGS ARE sTUNTEo.
Methods Employed in the Manufacture OF
Toy Terriers.

Toy Terriers.
There is an era of tiny dogs in Eng
lish society. The more diminutive a
parcel of canine flesh that you can pos
sess the more are you swell; says the
Toledo Blade. But, alas! How many
feminine readers who delight in the
miniature doggies know that they are
an artificial product.
There is in London an establishment
devoted entirely TO the stunting of the
animals. The proprietor is an ex-
breeder of fighting dogs, but he now
finds more profit in rearing the lilipu-
tian CANNES, for which he has wide
reputation. He does not claim to be the
originator of the process. for he says
that all dog men know of the dwarfng
powers of alcohol, but he asserts that he
is the only man in London to adopt the
principle Systematically.
His method is as follows: The pun
destined to be stunted is taken from its
mother when few hours old and when
it begins to whine for sustenance it is
fed with warm decoction of gin and
water. Deprived of milk, it takes to
this readily. When it reaches certain
age alcohol in various forms constitutes
the animals sole diet. The pups do net
die nor do they develop. They soon
cease to grow at all. After a genera
ton or two of mating the much-prized
liliputian canine is obtained.
