A Warming to Americans.

American tourists in Switzerland
would do well to pay attention to their
dress when visiting the Canton du Va
lais. Three murderers have escaped from
the cantonal prison at Sion and have
taken to the mountains in the pictur-
esque sulphur and sepia hued costume
of the Swiss malefactor. Both the
authorities and the press are warning
people in consequence to be on their
guard and to mistrust appearances, as
with the close cropped hair, knicker-
bockers and striped jackets the fugitive
murderers may easily be mistaken for
American and English tourists excur-
sioning in the valaisan Alps. "-Ex-

POISONED BY A FLEA.
BITES OF THIS INSECT SHATTERED A
WOMAN'S HEALTH.

Agony OccasiOned by Tiny Pest-DOc-
tors We're Called In, but Their Renee
dies Were Used In Vain-victim's Hear
ing Destroyed.
Six months ago a flea bit the ankle of
Mrs. 1. J. Pinkney of West One Hun
dred and Thirty street, New
York. 1t is flathouse. In the build
ing are three pet dogs and number of
cats.
That flea bit Mrs. Pinkney there is
no question. The insect was found and
killed, and the lady gave her mind to
other matters, but the bites would not
be set aside so lightly. From mere an
noying, itching little eruptions they
grew to be first painful and then ago.
nizing. The usual household lotions,
witch hazel, camphor and the like,
were tried, but gave no relief. The in
famed centers grew larger and more in
famed. Then the leg began to swell.
For a couple of hours the sufferer
tossed i'll her bed, unable to gain sleep
and then sent for a doctor. When he
learned the reason for his visit, he was
inclined to look on the matter in a
semihumorous light, but he quickly
found that it was very serious.
The poisoned leg refused to yield to
any of the usual remedies. The swell
ing increased until it was twice its nor
NAL size. 1t was plain that blood poi
soning had set in and that the case had
reached the alarming stage
Consulting doctors were called in,
but the flea bites baff1ed the skill of all.
Other physicians around town were ask
ed if they could suggest cure, but
the case was so original that they could
OILY fall back on the time honored rem
edies
For weeks the patients condition
was pitiful The poison went through
out her system. Her hearing was
affected. She suffered from insomnia,
walking the floor almost constantly.
Her hair turned from a beautiful nat
ural golden to pallid white. Her skin,
which had been unusually fair, lost all
its beauty.
At one time it was feared that she
would die, and often her reason seemed
to be threatened, but the faithful doc
tor never ceased his efforts, and at last
the disease yielded to treatment. But
it was plain that her nervous system
had suffered a shock from which it
might never fully recover. This was
shown when, day or two ago, she was
taken for drive in Bronx park.
A gnat flew against her face. Mrs
Pinkney gave a scream of terror and
fought off the harmless insect as if it
was venomous thing. After a short
time she was seized with a nervous
chill and asked to be hurried home.
Flies, mosquitoes and other small ten
ants of the air possessed real horror
for the long tortured woman.
Such were the consequences of half
dozen tiny flea bites. The physician
who treated the case could find no other
cause for the blood poisoning and is in
clined to ascribe the disastrous inham-
nation to the bites alone New York

THE BIGGEST CONGRESSMAN
One of New Hampshire's Representatives
Is Physical Giant.

Ia "a Physical Giant.
Mr.. Sulloway Of New Hampshire is
the giant of congress in physical stature.
He is almost feet tall, and since the
retirement of General Newton NJ. Cur
tbs Of New York has no rival to the
claim of being the biggest man in con-
gress.
Attention is attracted to him not on
ly on account of his unusual height,
but by the manner of his dress and his
mode of wearing his hair and beard He
always wears long skirted, dark blue
coat with velvet collar a low cut vest,
exposing a wide expanse of shirt front,
and he has not yet taken to the fashion
of wearing shoes, but finds comfort in
old fashioned, long topped boots He is
continually in need of hair cut. His
long locks, which are carelessly brush
ed, struggle down over the velvet collar
of his coat much after the style of old
time southern statesmen or the Buffalo
Bill type of westerners He wears a
full beard, which is not always trim
med as neatly as fashion would pre-
scribe.
Mr.. Sideways record is about as
unique as his personal appearance. He
is known as the Salvation Army con-
gresham. 1t is related of him that
some years ago he was an unbeliever,
but having been retained by Salvation
Army captain to defend little compa-
ny of these evangelists against charge
of disorderly conduct in parading the
streets of Manchester he became i'm
pressed with their faith, was converted
and finally married Salvation Army

BURIED HIS MONEY.
How a Husband Tried to Avoid the Pay
ment of AIimOny.

Conrad May, defendant in a divorce
suit at Dubuque, Ia, confessed the 9th
er day to the referee appointed by the
court to discover the whereabouts Of his
property that he buried two pots of
gold valued at So, 900 on a farm in Wis
consin to escape an execution for the
temporary alimony which the court had
allowed his wife,
May was arrested some days ago on a
warrant charging that he was about to
leave the jurisdiction to escape payment
of the alimony. He was brought before
Judge O'Donnell, and, rather than re-
main in Jail for contempt or reveal the
exact hiding spot of his treasure, he
proposed to "dig up enough to pay
the alimony. The proposition was ac-
cepted. Cincinnati Enquirer.

ThG Man Who
Bought Noses.
Adapted from the German by NJ. II. NJ.

Mine host of small country hos
teIry was an exceedingly inquisitive
person and few commercial travellers
could resist the temptation to play
jokes on him. During the trip in the
neighborhood five drummers met and
decided to make the inqulsltive host
the butt of Joke, and to carry it out
four drummers went ahead to the no.
tel aud the fifth followed them a few
hours later. The first question the
host asked his late arrival was his
destination and what article he rep g.
sentOd. In perfect self-possessIon the
drummer answered: 81 represent
noses"
"What, you travel for noses?" ex-
claimed the host in great surprise.
EYES," answered the drummer, eve
buy noses for scientific purposes; for
instance for good wine nose like the
one you have l pay five hundred
marks"
els it possible?"
"Why of course" answered the
drummer, eff you want to sell me
your nose | will give you the amount
right away"
"But l would not have my nose cut
Off"
"That is not necessary, as we only
take possession of it after your death
Think of it, will give you five hum
bred marks "
alright, I'll do it," said the host
after a short delberation, "what is the
difference if they lower me into my
grave with or without nv nose?"
The drummer quietly drew his
pocketbook and handed 500 marks
over to the host, at the same time
saying: 'Here are the tivs hundred
marks for your nose, but remember, II
you regret the trade and want to cam
Gel it, you will have to pay me fifty
marks forfeit money and then you can
retain your nose"
"I'll never regret the trade" said
the satisfied host, as he pocketed the
money.
Meantime the drummer had taken a
metal stamp out of leather case and
after heating the same at the gas jet un-
til it was red hot, he approached the
host.
"What do YOU want to do9"
"Why, just want to mark my prop
erty, so that there will be no mistake.
For this purpose will now burn the
name of my firm, as we'll as the num-
Der, on the nose bought of you"
mo, neverw screamed the terrified
host.
"Wcll, if you regret the trade then
please hand me back my money and
the fifty mark forfeit for breaking the
contract and you can retain your
nose"
The host was compelled to return
the money and nothing less than a
box of wine would satisfy the drummer
and his confederates who had watched
the entire proceeding with great mer-
riment. After this lesson, the host
decided to be more careful with his
curiosity IN the future.
