MOTOR IN HIS NEcKTle.

Novel Form of Jewelry Built by nm
Electrical Jeweler.
A Texas watchmaker and electrician
las built for himself a very effective and
novel scarf pin in the form of tiny
electric motor. which, though only
weighing onepennyweightthree grains,
is complete in every detail, and can be
operated when supplied with current.
This is probably the smallest operative
motor in the world. Gold takes the
place OF copper throughout, and the
field magnets, which necessarily have
to be of magnetic material. consist of
two thieknesses of very fine sheet
iron scraped down and polished. These
are held together with gold screws, and
wound In the regulation manner with
very fine silk-covered wire. The COM
mutator bars are also Of gold, and the
smallest of brushes deliver the current
to the armature windings. Notwith-
standing its minute size this little motor
runs at lively speed and creates quite
hum when supplied with current from
small silver-chloride battery carried
in the vest pocket.

DEVOTION o. A PIGEON.
Elwood bird Works for Days to Re

Elwood bird Works for Days to Re-
lense an Imprisoned Companion.
A remarkable example of a pigeons
devotion was illustrated at Elweod re-
Gently. There are many coops of car
rier pigeons in that city. Some days
ago pet pigeon disappeared from it's
accustomed retreat at the storage
house of the indianapolis Brewing com
pany. No trace of it could be found.
A few days later the old pigeon was
noticed acting strangely. 1t began fly
ing viciously against the outside of the
building and striking the weather
boarding with her bill and head. She
would fly to the Panhandle car track
and with flying start dive back against
the side of the building, always hitting
the same spot. She kept up her queer
actions until, it is claimed by those who
witnessed the affair, she actually
clipped hole through the siding.
She was later noticed carrying food
and dropping it through the small open
ing. An investigation revealed the fact
that the missing bird had got fastened
between the weather boarding and the
lath. 1t called on the old bird and at
last attracted her attention. She be-
gan work getting to it and after three
or four days succeeded in making q
large enough opening to get food

A CLEVER INDIAN MAIDEN.

If the Indian braves do not take
kindly to civilization, it does not follow
that the Indian women don't. Lucy
Nicolar is the daughter OF the late Jo-
seph Nicolar, of the Penobscot tribe,
which has its reservtion on AN island,
known as Indian island, in the Penob-
scot river in Maine. Lucy is just COM
ing into her teens, and is bright miss
of marked beauty, and wherever she
goes with baskets or Indian exhibits
many young American who looks
upon the Indian maiden feels that the
land of the Penobscots must be 1.-The
land of handsome women" Just now
Lucy is receiving private instruction
that she may enter igh school. Her in
structor says that She is bright in her
studies and that mathematics is her
forte. Lucy is perhaps the most pro-
ficient piano player on the island, being
the owner of an instrument She also
sings pleasingly. But the skill of the
tribe is not forgotten by this young
member, for she can make baskets, etc,
as well as some of the older ones. Lucy
is also am accomplished bicycle rider,
and has bought wheel out of her saw
ings. The mother of Lucy. Mrs. Martha
Nicolar, is one of the finest-looking
members of the tribe, a woman respect.

An Everlasting Disgrace to Grecia
Girls.

Girls.
In Greece It is considered an ever
lasting disgrace to remain an old maid.
Girls are betrothed often when still
tiny babies.
Marriages of love are absolutely un-
known--even more so than in France.
And the father is most particular that
the intended husband must have an am
pie provision to support a wife and
family. For the girl dowry is not so
important as in France, but certain
amount of linen and household furni-
ture is required. The whole training
and education of Greek girl is simply
q preparation to render her brilliant in
the society of the great world. Her
toilet is subject of constant anxiety.
Although most Greek girls are natur-
ally very pretty. they begin to paint
and powder from n very early age
cheeks bright red. eyebrows AID lashes
deepest black and veins delicately blue.
The result is that she is withered old
woman at 40. and nowhere are uglier
women to be found than beneath the
blue skies of lovely Greece.

THE SITUATION EXACTLY.

The duty of every Democratic mem
ber of the legislature Is plain and is ex
pressed in these words: Do everything
you can to defeat Hanna. If Demo
crat can be elected that is the best
thing; if a silver Republican can be
chosen that is the next best thing; bu,
if any Repu b.ican or Democrat other
than Hanna can be elected that is a
good thing.
Each of our people should vote for
any man rather than Hanna as his de-
feat by any one is great victory for
us.-Marietta Times DEM.

SAVING TIME.
More and More Work Carried For
wRrd by Night ns Well ms by Day.

More and More Work Carried For
ward by Night ms Well ns by Day.
The electric light on the lofty frame
work of great modern buildings under
construction is now a familiar sight,
says the New York Sun. The work goes
on at night as well as by day, so that,
with its new building completed, the
valuable land shall as soon as possible
again be made productive.
1t is common now in busy streets to
do work that involves tearing up the
street pavements, on underground
pipes, wires, and so on, at night; SO that
the work may be done with the least in
terruption to traffic. and with the great
est facility as far as the work itself Is
concerned.
And nowadays work on new pave
mems is Carried on at night, to hurry it
to completion; simply to save time. 1t
may be, for example, that in residence
street two shifts of men are employed
in laying an asphalt pavement, and the
work goes right on continuously, day
and night. One might look down this
quiet street at three o'clock in the morn
ing and see the men at work by the
fiaring naphtha torches, and the big
steam roller moving back and forth just
the same as at three o'clock in the after
noon.
On occasion work on gas trenches
and other street work is nowadays kept
right on at night And all these things
are in keeping with the great modern
tendency to save time; to utilize every
minute and to waste nothing.

100 MuoA OF a GOOD rHINo,

The "Plcnsures" Mapped ont I'm Bos-
ton for n Western Girl.
Not long ago while young woman
hailing from western state was re-
siding in the east she had slight at
tack of the grip and was much in need
of something to cheer her up. With a
view of securing the needed amuse-
ment she wrote accepting the standing
invitation Of Boston girl TO come and
spend few days at the Hub. When the
time was near for her to leave home
she received a letter from her Boston
friend which ran like this:
81 think l have planned as pleasant
programme for you, my dear, as
would be possible. You will arrive
Monday morning; that afternoon we
shall have luncheon of the Quiet Hour
club in your honor, at which 30 literary
women will be present. Monday even
ing we shall attend lecture by Prof.
- on The Semitic Races Tuesday
forenoon we are going to meeting Of
the Browning club, and In the after
noon we are booked for musicale in
behalf of the colored old ladies' home.
Tuesday evening we shall wind up the
two days with lecture by PROF. -
on 'Esoterc Buddhism which l am
sure will be the greatest treat OF the
whole two days"
AS soon after the receipt of this let
ter as she could recover strength
enough to hold pen the western girl
wrote her friend as follows:
'T am afraid, my dear girl, that you
will have to modify your programme,
or else can't come to you. What little
intellect the grip has left me l dou't
propose to wreck in any such manner
as YOU have arranged for"

UNLIKE most political eruptions, the
intensity of the feeling over the action
of the ten unfaithful Republican legis-
lators grows each day. The whole
country is agast at the situation and
public indignation, in many cases
without regard to party, is rapidly be-
coming national. The only possible
rescue for the Republican organization
in Ohio is the election of Mr.. Hanna.
We hope and believe that result will
be reached next Tuesday.

FEEDING HAsITs OF FISHES,
How the Club and the Trout seis,
Jtpon n Wandering Worm.

How the Club and the Trout Seize
Upon n wandering Worm.
Worms are occasionally fed at. the
aquarium to such fishes as eat them in
nature, including suckers and chubs
and sunfish and trout, and some others.
The worms are put into the tanks at
The top, to sink gradually through the
water until they are nipped up by some
fish.
The manner in which the fishes take
them varies with the habits of the
fishes, says the New York Sun. The
worm sinks slowly through the water,
and with but few twistings or turnings
of its body. A little club will nip a
worm much slenderer, but it will be
longer, than itself, perhaps at about the
middle of its length, and swim away
with it with the two ends free. Then
the worm does squirm. and the little
fish twists with excitement as It darts
off with its prey. but 1t holds on to it,
and finally makes away with it.
The trout. flashing upward like light
ming. snaps up the worm before 1t has
descended far into the water. The
worm disappears totally and instantly.
and at the instant of seizing it the trout
turns in an incredibly short space. and
with simply marvellous swiftness seek.
jns cover again as it would do in nature.
