Of kerosene that we're knocked in the head on
the noor above At Eve o'clock Capt. Einstein,
Of Company d, who was loft behind TO complete
the destruction, touched q match to the build
ing and then retreRted to tho railroad track,
coming back later with the few inhabitants
who we're attracted at that hour by the flames
'He met me the next night at Snowdon's hut
on the Mississippi, where | was waiting for
him, and reported that tho destruction was COM
plete and that the guns had been eficctually Gov
cred by the ashes and debris and would not be
discovered until an attempt was made 10 re-
move tho rubbish.
my calculations with regard 10 the direction
the search would take for the regiment were
right as you will see by the papers, and the
plan Of bring the scows over from the other
side OF the Ohio and cutting them loose above
Paducah was good one The general belief
at once seized the authorities that the men
had crossed the river frcm Indiana.
II am now convinced by actual demonstra-
tlon that | can, with q thousand men, carry out
the eastern scheme Of which you spoke. The
chances Of success are increased by the audac-
ity Of tho attempL Whatever appears TO be
incredible will succeed before thccommunlty
can bring itself to acknowledge It."

side as the gear-wheel mounted on
the shaft. The two fixed gear-wheels
are adapted to engage the pinions al
ternately.
Upon rotating the gear-wheel shaft,
the pinions are made to revolye, When
the lower piniors are in mesh with
the smaller fixed gear-wheel, as shown
in the section, they roll off on this
fixed gear-wheel, and therefore the
disk carrying the pinions is made to
reyolve on the shaft on which it is
formed. When, by shifting the disk
shaft, the upper pinions are made TO
mesh with the larger fixed gear-wheel,
then an opposite motion and different
speed are impaired to the disk shaft,
as the upper pinions roll off on the
larger fixed gear-wheel. If, on the
contrary, the disk shaft be rotated,
then the disk carries its pinions around
and they then roll off on either of the
fixed gear-wheels, and consequently
cause the shaft gear-wheel to rotate
the shaft upon which il is mounted.
When it is desired to change the
pinions, the coied spring in the re-
duced end Of the disk shaft is made to
yield longitudinally, so as to permit
both shafts to be moved closer to-
gether or farther apart, depending
upon the size of the new pinions.

CURE FOR INCIDENCE.
French Doctor Calls 1t n weakness
Which Is Amenable TO Rational
Scientific Treatment.

A French doctor declares that indo-
lence is weakness of dyspeptics and
neuropaths, which is amenable to
scientific treatment. He divides in
dolent people into various classes and
proposes to treat each case according
to its special symptoms. He looks
upon the Indifferent indolent as hope
less, but believes that the remorseful
indolent, especially the intermittent
ly indolent, are more or less open to
cure. The first thing a physician
should do is to change the sudden fits
of industry, which exhaust the brain
energy, and give only partial results,
into regular steady work. The doc
tor should impress the patient with a
fixed, guiding idea, and then form a
habit or, in other words, substitute an
automatic act, which is easy, for
voluntary act, which is difficult To
be really effective, this habit must be
emphasized until it borders on a
mania, and one Of the most important
details is that the time for work should
always be the same. The best time
OF the day at which to acquire habit
Of works is the morning, directly after
rising, when the brain is claarest. The
greatest care must be taken not to
oyertire an indolent but willing pa.
tient. One hours work a day is quiet
enough for him TO begin with. The
time should be gradually increased
but never 10 such an extent as "a
produce exhaustion. A short walk
OF a meal, OF a rest, may break the
spells Of work, and the ruling ides
should be TO have a clear knowledg,
OF the aim in view and to limit III,
time for work. for people usually worl
best when the time for exurtiou hal
dxed limits

fright, exercise or the effort of eating.
They used only the primitive meaus
Of percussion-a system of tapping the
fingers of the right hand on the fin
gers Of the left pressed against the
heart-to explain their theories.
Now DR.. Captain comes forward
with his stethoscope, employing
Blanchi's method Of phoneidoscopy,
and the most thorough examination
of the heart is possible. a button OF
the stethoseope IS pressed over the
heart and the skin is tapped. When
by means Of rubber tubes that con-
meet the apparatus with the nose aud
ears, the noise and tapping are no
longer heard, the limit Of the organ
has been reached and so the entire
outline may be traced. IN nervous
subjects the heart is not apt TO rise
and expand often. Dyspeptics and pco-
pie given 10 alcoholic indulgence are
apt to be subject to expansion Of the
heart. Under the same emotions IN
the same subject the heart does not
always take the same course. Some
times = may contract.

CHAPTER XVII

While this conversation was going
on there arrived at the sanitarium a
sheriff's posse. Among them was the
deputy who had escaped when the
house was surrounded. The doctor
was now in charge of the place and no
obstruction was offered to their en-
trance They were led by the sheriff
of Upton county, grim and grizzly
veteran, known as Clip Davis, who had
a wide reputation as fighter, and he
brought pocl1etful of warrants.
The doctor expressed his entire sym
pathy with their purpose, denounced
Hendricks as an outlaw and offered to
aid the officers in any way in destroy
ing the gang. lie placed the house at
their disposal, treated them Hospitality
and gave it as his opinion that Hen
bricks and his men had gone east.
The old sheriff was suspicious, blunt
and unceremonious. you've got a
d-d suspicious house here, he said,
"and I'm going to get to the bottom OF
it. Where does that wire go?"
ut was intended to go to Memphis,
but it was never finished"
well, sir, there has murder been
committed here. If ! don't find the
guilty parties I'm in search of I'll bag
the whole establishment and take you
TO Covington."
The doctor smiled remarked that
that would be rather rough treatment
for innocent people and then asked the
sheriff 10 drink.

prove that you trust him? am going

Stocking was disinclined to accede
to this request, but Miss Laport was
pleasantly firm and, few moments

Grand Opera House.

Mcintyre and Heath, the negro cor1- edians at the Grand, get off some quaint bits of humor in their act, "The Georgia Minstrels, and they amuse and delight the audience. The Van Aukens are features of any show wherein they appear. Their act this season is new and extremely difficult, especially the long somersault from the first to the third bar without touching the middle. This feat has won for them the title of the wonderful ath- letes.
 Gilbert Girard has made good many friends by his limitations of the various animals and sounds. He is very versa tile, too, and sings we'll. The orchestra comes in for a share of attention by it's good music, and the descriptive fanta- sia, ''Dance of the Goblins,' is made more effective by the aid of electricity. The finale is wild and the lights are en- tirely extinguished while sheets of flame dart up and across the stage, giv- ing a peculiar and awe-inspiring effect. Next week Frederick Guilford, the pic- colo soloist, will be heard in solos.

All who are interested and can spare the time should make 1t point to visit the scene of operation and see for themselves what is being done There Is a large amount of grading under way along the side of Pine Hill, which when com pleted will be great improvement.
 The many bicyclists and others who have been from here down to North Haven during the past few days have noticed a terrible stencil near the bridge below Toelle's and at another point a mile or more below and wondered at the cause.
