WHEN YOU AaE Hurled ALIVE.
4 Machine to Signal That Fact and
Give You Air.

Count Michael Won Karniee Karnick
the Cars chamberlain, has invented and
perfected an exceedingly clever apparatus
for the prevention OF that bugbear of The
nervous living burial. The apparatus
was offered as a gift to the French gows
eminent, which sull has its acceptance I'M
der consideration.
A tube protrudes four feet to four and
a half feet above the surface of the grave
and upon the top of it Is fixed a small
metal box with a spring lid
To the lower end of the tube, which just
enters the upper lid of the coffin, is nxed
an india rubber bali, charged pretty fully
with air, so that the slightest extra pres
sure upon it would cause a discharge Of
air upward through the tube, which
springs open upon the slightest pressure.
The opening of the lid automatically
raises a small flag, and sets an electric
bell in motion, which rings Immediately
over the grave and in the sections house,
where 1t also releases flap which indi-
Gates the grave over which the box has
opened.
AS will be seen the slightest sign Of
breathing on the part of the buried per-
son, or the slightest motion of the heart,
will suffice to open the box and sound the
alarm and the open box, by a clever and
intricate little mechanism, pumps a suff-
clent quantity of air down into the coffin
to preserve the buried person from suffo-
cation while assistance Is arriving
Count Karnicki, il may be added, Is firm
ly convinced that thousands of persons
are buried alive every year in a state of
lethargy

PLANTS IN THE LADRoNEs.
A Man Who Owns a Farm-Can Live
MithOut Labor.
From the Richmond Times.

From the Richmond Times.
The queer things in the Ladrones include
a tree the fruit of which is so obnoxious
to the nostrils that a man cannot keep
his stomach and smell It, But once past
the nose it is so delicious that he will eat
until too full to walk. This fruit ripehs
once a month, and is plentiful.
A nut which can be eaten shell and all
is another queer product. The shell is
brittle like a cracker, sweet and good. The
inside has a kernel which can only be Bit
ten when the fruit is fresh.
Another fruit is so rare that 1t is used
as a coin.
A very queer mineral product Is a stone
which changes color in the atmosphere.
Cold days ii is black! hot days it is bright
red; when rain threatens, it
is pinkish, ard in cloudy
weather it is blue. This stone lies
on the highways, and the pedestrian can
forecast his own weather.
A great yellow flower which opens and
closes TO the sun at noon is another now
city This flower takes only five minutes
to open and SHUT; for one minute il is
wide open showing white center with
golden heart. 1t opens directly up to the
sun and closes tight with dropping head.
1t varies not one minute in the whole life
time of the plant. On cloudy days it
opens but its petals point downward, for
the stem does not rise as on sunny days.
This flower acts as clock to the natives.
The domestic animals of the Ladrones is
a small bird called Laughing donkey"
1t laughs like parrot, but has projections
on the side OF its head which gives rise
TO the name. Another household pet is the
Japanese poodle, which here is very small
and very curly haired. This dog catches
its own fish in the lagoons, and eats fruit
from the guava tree.
The man who owns a farm in the La
drones is. a rich man, for he can support
life without labor. Bread fruit trees grow
wild. and with the cocoanuts are the shade
trees of the islands, A grove of bread fruit
trees to a L.adrone islander is what a herd
of Western cattle is 10 ranchman. Fruit
grows all the year round, and every quality
of queer edible tropical fruit is found
there. Rice, corn indigo, Gator oil, qua
vas and bread fruit are exceedingly plenti-
full. while sugar-cane cotton, tobacco and
castor beans grow without planting. They
are natural to the SOIL and spring up in
such uuanites as to be regarded as weeds.
very valuable possession which Uncle
Sam viii use is the palm grove, which ex-
tends in a belt across all the Islands.
This balm grove consists of palm trees
which rise side by side so close together
that YOU can hardly, except for the slen-
derness of the trunks of the trees. pen
citrate into the depths of the palm forest.

rnArce is as good as the elephant tusk. This
ivory can be used in ali cases that do not

ments. II cannot be surpassed.

"A Woodworking, muscular man. who

ceptance Of the appointment as Bish-
op Of the Sacramento Diocese:
Rev. c. L. Mel, Secretary-My Dear
Mr.. Mel: I have received with pleas
ure, through you as Secretary Of q

the Missionary District of Sacramento,
an expression of the cordial greetings
of said conference held September -

my cordial appreciation of their court

God that by the operation of His Spirit
He has made them to be thus of one

Please also state to the clergy and
people of the district, in any way that

ERNEST WILL|AMSONS SSPREE
CAME FROM RosEvILLE WITH
A $3.50 CHECK.
Went on Thanksgiving Toot and
Awoke Last Evening Without
His Money.

Ernest Williamson mournS the loss
of his summers wages, and Thanksgiv-
ing has proved not to be cause of
Thanksgiving for him.
He called on the Chief of Police last
night and told his story of VICE. He
says he has worked for a long time for
J. Kaseburg, near Roseville, and on
Thanksgiving Day came to this city
with a.check in his pocket on the D. O..
Mills & Co.'S Bank for $3.50, which
Kaseberg had given him.
He says he called at the saloon of
John Norton. with whom he was ac-
quainted, and told him that he had
the check, but had no money, and Nor
ton trusted him for his drinks. Norton
went down to the Bay, he says, to see
the Lavigne-Tracey fight, but before
going told his barkeeper to charge
Williamson with SAT for the drinks he
had on Thanksgiving Day, but on his
return Williamson and he compromised
on $50
Williamson wished to get his check
cashed, and states that Theodore Van
Buskirk, the prize-fghter, accompa-
MED him to the bank to identify him,
although he had several checks cashed
there before and had never needed iden-
tification. Deaf Kelly who was
charged a few months ago with rob-
bing an old man, but was acquitted,
and Dell Murphy were also in the sa-
loon, he says
/ After getting the check cashed he
drank some more, he states, and re-
membered nothing more until he woke
up at the Windsor Hotel, where he
stops when in town, and where a friend
Of his named Lewis, had taken him,
having. hunted him up and found him
in Norton's saloon. He had only lit
tie small change and a bogus sily er
dollar left in his pocket
William Coates called at this office
last night and said he was an old and
close friend of Williamson and had
done his best to protect him and his
money since he came to town. 1t
was he, he said, who took him to the ho-
tel. He said that after Williamson had
drawn the money from the bank and
paid his bill at Norton's saloon he left
there and went about town with other
persons than those mentioned above
men who he said were his friends
Coates said further that Mr. Norton
had not yet returned from San Fran
cisco, unless he came up last night,
and that when Williamson set out from
the saloon he had his money in his
pocket, and he (Coates) cautioned him
to be careful where he went Even af-
ter he took Williamson to the hotel,
helplessly intoxicated, the latter stole
out of his room and was found later in
another room
Coates said he did not believe Will
hanson had any idea where he lost his
money

Thanksgiving Reunion.
tended to.

A correspondent of the Record
Union," writing from Capay, Yolo
County, thus tells of the Thanksgiv-
ing reunion there Of the earlier settlers
in that beautiful valley:
The children of the Capay pubic
school gave a splendid entertainment
illustrating the origin Of the American
flag. While they were singing a Cali
fornia song an alarm of fire was given.
There were about 40 men, women and
children in the hall over the store, and
there came very near being a panic.
Every one was struggling to get down
the stairway first.
1t turned out, however, that it was
only chimney fire, and after the
excitement passed everybody returned
to the hall, where the entertainment
was resumed.
Among the older settlers is J. w
Aldrich, who is 50 years old. He has
eighteen grandchildren and has
been a resident of Capay for forty
years
The next oldest man is H. S. Chase,
who is upward of so years. He came
TO California in 1885, and has been a
resident of this valley forty-five years.
There We're many others present, with
their wives, who have been here many
years. All had a good time, with
plenty Of turkey, chicken and other
good things.
The old settlers propose to keep up
these annual reunions, and until the
last of the pioneers shall be gathered
to his fathers they will meet on
Thanksgiving Day, eat turkey and
exchange "reminiscences of the good old
days.
Among the older residents of the
valley are ]. P. Goodenow, E. D.. Per-
kins, John Lang, ]. w. Aldrich, Mrs.
