TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE.
ohe VIII BE Seen by the People OF
America on May 2s, 1900.

One Will BE Seen by the People of
America on May 2s, 1000.
The people of America will have a
very unusual chance to see a total solar
eclipse right here at home on May %,
1890. Astronomers are even now study
ing the meteorological tables for past
years in order to find the localities
promising clearest skies, says the
Washington Post. The line of totality
first touches the continent on the Paci-
fc coast in Mexico, north of Cape Co
rientes, pursuing a northeast course,
leaving Mexico at the mouth of the lilo
Grande, crossing the gulf of Mexico and
entering the United States at Atchafa-
laya bay, Louisiana. The breadth of
the line is about fifty miles. The eclipse
will be total at New Orleans at about
1922 a. M, Washington time. The
eclipse will be visible in Macon, Raj
eigh, Norfolk and intermediate and
neighboring points. Crossing the ocean
the land first touched is near the port
OF Coimbra, Spain, passing southeast
across southern Europe and the Medi-
terranean sea Thus all the astrono-
mers in both hemispheres will be with
in easy distance and with every facil-
ity for using any amount of instrument
tai equipment. The greatest duration
will be two minutes, nine seconds

Counts Passion for Prison Life.

OF the many methods of achieving
fame-or notoriety-that of Count
Rocco Dianovitch is surely among the
%strangest: The count has made the
getting into prison the chief business
of his life for thirty-four of the forty
seven years he has lived, for the pur-
pose of gathering information for a
book he is anxious to write on the
subject. At thirteen he left his home
and went into Prussia, where he was
arrested for trespassing, and sent to
prison for three months, working at
chair-making. From that time to
this" he adds, 81 have never been
free from the DESIRE" From thirteen
until he was twenty-one he was in and
out of more than twenty prisons in
Belgium, Prussia, Poland and Russia.
His first experience Of Jail life in Eng
land was in Liverpool, which he says
was one of the worst he ever was in,
filled with drunken sailors from all
over the world. He stayed there six
days, when he paid his fine and got out
the first time he failed to serve his
sentence. Then he went to Ireland,
France, Spain, Italy, Greece and Tur-
key, then to Egypt, where the jails
are the worst in the world except Aus
t%ralia;" and to India and Japan, and
America, where he has been for more
than a year, spending most of his time
in jails and penitentiaries. According
to his views, the best Jail in America
is in Denver, and that in St. Louis,
where he spent a week, is very bad,
for 1.-THE prisoners run the place. and
1T was impossible to find any peace
or comfort in the place." The count
ought to give us "the book of the sea-
son."

"MY WIFE'S LIFE"

When the lungs are lattacked and the
symptoms Of consumption appear, then
begins the struggle between affection and
that destroying disease which Stays Its
thousands aunually. 1t Is a happy issue
to the struggle when disease Is conquered
and health restored. Such an issue does
not always end the struggle, but it liz in
the case OF MFR. X. Morris, Memphis, Tenn,
who saw his wife wasting and weakening
and physicians helpless, and then sug-
gested the simple remedy that wrought
the cure. He tells the story thus:
"seven years ago, my wife had a severe
attack of lung trouble which the ply
sicians pronounced consumption. The
cough was extremely distressing, espe-
cially. at night, and was frequently
attended with the splitting of blood. The
doctors being unable to help her, I in
duced her to try DIR. Ayers Cherry Peetoral

gave. Before using one whole bottle she

A Queer Cucumber.

Mrs. Rose Marimon found in her
garden the middle of last July a Gu
cumber eleven inches long and twelve
inches in circumference which she left
for seed, but looked in vain for the
vegetable to ripen and urn yellow.
The first week in September it was
discovered to be loose from the vine,
and was taken in the house and put
away. Today it is as green and firm
as it was in July, and there is no in
dication that it will ever change it's
state. Mrs. Marimon has been gar
dening for forty years and never OBJ
served the like of this cucumber before.

So, in his boyish way, he unfolded
the philosophy of meum and tuum.
Bessie Raven listened in surprise.
She had never been reasoned with be-
fore. No one had ever taken the trou-
BILE to explain matters and things in
general to her.
"Oh, Felix!' she cried out, with a
great sob in her throat, 81 see it all

Don't fret, that's a good girl! Here
take the gold cross and keep it. l
don't care much for it,"
So they parted. At home Felix
found that his father had come to take
them up into the mountains for a few
weeks, before they returned to their
city homeland so he never got the
chance to tell Bessie Raven good-by.
