Warm weather has again caused the
abandonment of the project for the
building of an ice palace in st. Paul.
and it is considered probable that sim
liar enterprise will never again be un-
dertaken. Since the winter Of 1889 there
has been no cold spell Of sufficient dura.
tion to justify the building Of such an
edifice, as several weeks are ordinarily
employed in its construction. st. Paul
had the first ice palace in the United
States. 1t was built in 1885 and was
144 feet long and over 100 feet high.
In 1887 another and even larger palace
was built and was followed in 1888 by
q structure 200 feet square and 1870 feet
high. Since then, however, it has been
impossible TO erect such an edifice on
account of the continued warm weather
It is probable that the company organ
ized for 30 years after the construction
Of the first ice palace will voluntarily
dissolve.

Ter. with half dozen aliases, who is
wanted for one of the most remarks able
series Of crimes on record, which were
committed in New South Wales His
trade apparently was butchery, and his
practice was to advertise for a partner
with e10 to 60 prospecting, take him
into the wilderness, shoot him, after he
had dug trench that was to serve as
his (the victim's) own grave, bury the
body aid return to the city to repeat the
operation.
Twice bodies have been discovered,
those of the two last victims being A.
o. It. Preston and Captain Lee Weller.
Butler assumed the latter's name in get
ting passage to America, and these
murders have been positively fastened
upon him. He went about his fiendish
work with the utmost GOODNESS, Weller's
murder and burial being within ten feet
Of travelled trails, and he went to the
trouble to present the valueless part of
the murdered mans property to poor
tramp, on whom he expected suspicion
to fall If the murder was discovered.

A BIG MACHINE.

The New Roentgen Ray Apparatus Set Up
In Pittsburg.
The largest Roentgen ray apparatus
in the world has just been completed by
Professor Reginald A. Fessenden of the
Western university for the Academy Of
Science and Art at Pittsburg. The big
machine has been over five months in
construction. 1t contains every modern
device, many new discoveries and is
made portable and economical in opera
tion. 1t has been designed to aid local
surgeons. and with its use important
discoveries are expected to be made.
The machine is inclosed in neat oak
cabinet, feet high and 2 feet wide, and
weighs but Ito pounds. Handles are
provided on either side to carry it. The
most important feature is the coil, which
rests near the base, between the legs Of
the cabinet. This is composed Of II
coils and is wound with 90 miles Of
small wire. It is arranged to give a
spark over 90 inches long, while the
capacity Of the machine reaches 80
inches
Fastened to the side of the cabinet is
an adjustable arm for holding the EDent-
gen ray tube. This is SO constructed
with several elbows that it can be placed
in any position. If necessary, it can be
placed beneath the bed upon which the
patient lies and the photograph taken
without moving or disturbing the sick
one.
The coil is the most powerful ever
successfully made. A photograph can
be taken through the thickest part of
the body in 15 minutes, and the surgeon
can easily see through every part Of the
body with the microscope. e.-Pittsburg

He First Found Pot Of Gold and xhep
Gained Bride.
An interesting marriage took place
recently at Vardalia, N. Y. 1t was
veritable union of December and May,
the groom being ~ years old and the
bride only %. They are Samuel Gray,
who for the past Is years has lived on q
farm of 90 acres near Vandalia, and
Miss Ella Doty, beautiful and we'll
educated young woman, whose parents
died some years ago and who has been
living with relatives at Vandalia.
Samuel Gray was widower, his wife
having died last April. He has one son,
30 years Of age, who lives with him.
His little farm is very mountainous and
stony, and it yielded meager subsist-
ence for the family until few years
ago, when the old gentleman made re-
markable discovery. While he was plow-
ing one of his rocky sidehill fields the
plowshare struck against an obstruction
and the plow handles gave the old man
an ugly dig in the ribs. The obstruction
certainly was not stone, for where the
plow point had scraped across it he

the old gentleman very long to find out
what the contents were. Imagine his
emotions when he discovered that the
old pot was filled with gold coins of
foreign mint and ancient date. He could
hardly believe his eyes and had to pinch
himself to be sure that he was not asleep

joy. 1t has never been learned just how
much the gold coins were worth, but

several thousand dollars, and he has the
mcst of it yet. Occasionally he goes to
the neighboring village of Allegheny to
do some trading and exchanges some of
his foreign gold for American currency
at Dye Bros. bank. How the pot Of gold
came to be buried on his farm is, of
course, mystery.
