sULLIvAN's EXHIBITION.

John L. 8 lllivan's vaudeville company
appeared ut the Park opera house last
night There was full house, everyone
having desire to see the once famous
pugilist.
1t is almost shame to trot the old
war horse OF pugiiism about the country
any more. He is "has been" Of the
"has beens" and no one seems to know it
better than he None Of the traces of
the vigorous manhood that allowed him
to remain a champion in the tistic arena
for twelve years are left and there re-
mains OF John L. nothing but size
great size, doubtless due to dissipation.
II the records are right Sullivan is
only thirty nine years OF age, yet he has
the appearance and the walk of a man
OF fifty years. Had he cared for the big
pile of money that he earned while the
worlds champion he would not now
have to be trotting around the country
with very inferior show.
The vaudeville part of the show was
poor. There were one or two redeeming
features, among them the club swinger
and the two young woman contortion-
ists.
The singing was execrable and par
took of the metallic harshness Of the
variety hall.
A right elever turn was the boxing
contest between a man and woman. But
OF all the exhibitions creating pity was
the little set to betwesn q the two former
gladiat re. Jake Kilrain and Sullivan.
They came on the stage limping with
age, premature and played at giving q
boxing exhibition. 1t was farcical and
one would have preferred to have his
memory OF Sullivan different from what
was presented last night.

Make YOur Own Ozoue

Almost every person has noticed the
peculiarly refreshing smell of clean
linen, especially when just removed
from the lines. But few people are
aware that there is any connection be-
tween fresh, cool linen. just from the
outside air, and the ozone of an apart
ment. 1t is stated that the atmosphere
of an apartment may be charged with
ozone by bringing into it damp linen
sheets that have just been exposed to
a dry, sharp wind; bringing them into
the house and shaking them or waving
them about in the air of the room VIII.
according to the statements made,
change the character of the air. This
is matter of Importance TO invalids,
who often become exhausted from lack
of ozone in the air they breathe. A
means so simple and effective and one
that is within the means of every per-
son should be generally understood. 1t
seems that all that is necessary is to
bring the linen to the room Immediate
ly after it is taken from the lines out
of doors and shake and whirl it about,
when the character of the air will be
altered at once.

IN JAIL FOR DEBT.
A Debtors Prison Where immortality
Reigned Supreme.

The Kings Bench was the largest of
all the debtors prisons 1t formerly
stood on the east side of the High
street, on the site OF what is now the
second street north of st. Georges
Church, London. This prison was
taken down in 1853, and the debtors
were removed to a larger and much
more commodious place on the other
side of the street south of Liant street
the site is now marked by a number OF
new and. very ugly houses and mean
streets. In the year 1776 the prisoners
had to lie two in a bed, and even for
those who could pay there were not
beds enough, and many slept on the
floor of the chapel. There were 395
prisoners; in addition to the prisoners
many of them had wives and children
with them. There were 279 wives and
| 275 children-a total Of 1899 sleeping
every night in the prison. There was a
good water supply, but there was no
infirmary, no resident surgeon, and no
bath. Imagine place containing 1889
persons, and no bath and no infirmary!
Among these prisoners, about a hun
dred years ago, was a certain Colonel
George Hanger, who has left his Me
moirs" behind him for the edifcation
Of posterity. According to him the
prison ''rivaled the purlieus of Wap-
ping, st. Giles, and St. James in vice,
debauchery, and drunkenness" The
J general immortality was so great that it
was only possible, he says, to escape
contagion by living separate, or by
consorting only with the few s-.Itle-
men of honor who might be fnand
there. Otherwise man will quickly
sink into dissipation: he will lose every
sense of honor and dignity, every moral
principal and virtuous disposition

He Knew How to Advertise.

An original form of an advertise
ment comes from Russia, where a
shopkeeper posted up the following
announcement:
1.-The reason why / have hitherto
been able to sell my goods so much
cheaper than anybody else is that
am bachelor, and do not need to make
a profit for the maintenance of wife
and children. 1t is now my duty to in
form the public that this advantage
will shortly be withdrawn from them,
as l am about to be married. They
will, therefore, do we'll to make their
purchases at once at the old rate"
The result was that there was such
run on the shop that in the course
of a few days this shOpkeeper had
made enough money to pay the ex-
penses of his wedding on very lavish
scale.

A WONDERFUL CLOCK.
The Nearest Approach to Perpetual
Motion Machine Yet Discovered.

A Kankakee county, H., man is the
possessor of one of the most wonderful
clocks in the country. This clock is as
near a perpetual motion machine as
any piece of mechanism yet designed.
The owner is not perpetual motion
Ravenskilde of Cabery, a town in the
southwestern portion of Kankakee
county.
The clock is the product of many
years of study and labor and consider
able expense. 1t keeps accurate time
and will run for year without the
least attention from its owner.
The clock proper is run with wheel
| go inches in circumference. From the
outer surface of the circumference was
! suspended 12O cupG, each one-half inch
in diameter and a third of an inch
deep. Each of forty of these cups,
which are successive, contain steel
| balls three-eighths of an inch in diam
eter
| Every minute and half as this wheel
turns by the weight of these balls one
of them falls out of its cup, rolls down
an inclined plane 20 inches long, when,
| by its own weight, it reunites a broken
circuit of electricity and is again ele-
waited by a little car travelling along
a sleeper inclined plane to the top of
the wheel, where it falls into a cup
which stands vertical for short time.
After the car discharges its cargo it
returns to its original station from it's
own weight. From the time one of
these balls is dropped into cup until
it is again dropped into another cup it
! travels Sc inches. Thus the work done
by all the balls is equivalent to one ball
| travelling over one mile day, 400
miles in one year, and during the life
time Of person living threescore
years the distance around the globe
The electricity used is generated in
an ordinary storage battery, which
does not require any attention for fully
a year.

BURNT WOOD ORNAMENTS.
The Manner in Which to Decorate With
Heal ed Irons.

The Manner in Which to Decorate with
Healed Irons.
The decoration of wood by the apph-
cation of heated irons is All art of long
standing, and many interesting ex-
amples of old work are occasioally to
be found. For trifing sum complete
apparatus may be bought, which in
cludes a platinum point that is kept
heated while the work is in progress,
not by electricity, as many suppose,
but by fumes of benzine, which is sup
piled by pressure on rubber bellows
which is connected by tubing to bot
tie half filled with benZine. When be-
ginning the work. the point should not
be heated in any flame but that of an
alcohol lamp. Any other flame would
be liable to smoke and ruin the point.
In burning outlines remember that to
make broad, firm line it is not neces-
sary to press. The lines are to be
scorched, not inrised. The point is
held and guided much in the same
manner as drawing pencil, but some
little practice is needed to enable the
worker to pass it smoothly and readily
over the wood, the tendency of all be-
ginners being to allow it to rest and
make dots. No discouragement, how
ever, must be felt at this, as with a
little practice the manipulation will be-
come easy and the worker be able to
make dark or light strokes at will.
Bold outlines and strongly burned
backgrounds come out we'll on ordinary
white wooden articles, such as tables,
stools, chairs, bowls, plates, racks, etc.

Authors I'm China.

Authors in China have a lovely time.
When the editor rejects a contribution
he does not return it together with a
cruelty polite little printed slip which
states that lit is not because Of any
fault with the MS, but because of the
present large supply on hand of matter
of the same description" the article is
returned. No: this is the kind of let
ter the Chinese editor writes:
'Illustrious Brother of the Sun and
Moon, Behold thy servant at thy feet.
who kisses the earth before thee and
asks thy gracious permission to speak
and live. We have read thy manu-
ccript with delight. By the bones of
our ancestors we swear that We have
never found such manuscript! If we
should print it, his majesty, the en-
peror, would command us to adopt it
as a standard and never again print
anything not equal 10 it. AS that
would not be possible within 10000
years, we return thy manuscript, trem-
bling and imploring thy pardon 10000
times My head is at thy feet and | am
the slave Of thy slave"
Courtesy could hardly be carried fur
ther. and whenever they decline an ar
ticle the Chinese newspapers must
make friend of the author.

Spain'S Great Building.

Spain possesses one of the largest
buildings in the world. It is at once
palace, a museum, library, a picture
gallery, a monastery, a church and a
burial place. This wonderful edifice
is called the Escorial, although the
name is very generally corrupted both
in England and America into "Escuri-
al"
The ESCorial was commenced in 1863
by order Of Philip IL of Spain and was
intended partly as a royal burial place
for the kings of Spain and partly as a
commemoration of Philips victory
over the French at st. Quentin in 1851
1t is built entirely of granite, and
measures 744 feet in length by $50 feet
in breadth. At each corner is a tower
200 feet in height. The building is
supposed to represent an enormous
gridiron lying upside down, and this
shape is believed to have reference to
st. Lawrence, who was martyred on a
! gridiron.
| Twenty-one years were spent in
building it. and it cost $12,O00.000. 1t
| has been twice partly destroyed by
| lightning and was sacked by the
French soldiers in 1903. There are
1900 doors and 1000 windows.
