FOOLED HIS OLD MOTHER.
in the Joliet PcnitentInry and
Tins Got Money.

After John Buhlheller wrote home
to his mother in Germany that he was
studying for the ministry in one of
the largest institutions in the country,
located at 1900 North Collins street.
Joliet, and that he needed money to
buy books on theology she RENTED
to him generously. It had always been
her ambition that her boy should
preach the Gospel, and she made many
sacrifices to enable her to provide him
with good library.
Not long ago she asked friend to
learn the character of the institution
in which John was studying theology.
The friend found that 1900 North Col
Inns street was the Illinois state peni-
Tertiary, and so wrote to Germany.
Bllhlheller receives no more remit
tances for books. Buhlhe,,er was sent
TO the prison from Cook county for bur
glary in 1895. He was released on pa
role in 1896, but was rearreSted and
sent back to the institution last March.

ST. Vincent's hospital at New York of

A SeIf-FoidinE Pillow.

The German electric roads have a
most ingenious device in the shape Of
the self-folding pillow, which can. if oc
casion arises. be forced up and ont
through the slot, narrow as il is. or low
cred again into it. so that through
service can be given the same cars on
lines with overhead and underground
conductors. The narrow contact plates.
which thus fold up Of course give a
much smaller area of contact on the
conductor rails than do the substantial
fiat cast iron shoes used in this country,
but it is probable that they give con-
tact Of sufficiently low resistance for
all practical purposes in street traction.
