From the Humane Alliance.
All sorts of curious creatures come to
us in punches of bananas, and I know of
over twenty species of insects, reptiles and
mammals that have gained free trans
portation to our land by slowing them
selves away in punches of this luscious
and popular fruit
1t is very common occurrence to find
spiders of several varieties, all of which
are pronounced deadly poison, of course.
I have seen three species of snakes which
were taken in these well-buit places of
concealment, one of which was a green
ish colored boa, all of five feet long, and
two little fellows. and all alive. 1t is not
rare to find active little lizards which have
made the thick shelter their home, and
been taken over 2,5Oo miles into foreign
land. never to return to their sunny home
in Central America.
Curious land crabs also migrate by this
methed, and, like all the rest of the I'M
known creatures from foreign lands, are
pronounced most virulent and are Killed on
sight. Then. too, We often find little mice
with very long tails, which have made
themselves comfortable on the journey by
pi eparing soft nests in the center of the
bunch.
The great punches Of fruit hang near
the ground, and the wild creatures seek
the space within and thus escape the hot
sum- or perhaps their enemies What more
natural than for a mouse to build it's nest
and rear its little brood in this retreat?

The mayor, after hearing the evidence in
the case, asked the lieutenant II he awak-
ened the officers. The lieutenant stated
that he did not whereupon the mayor stat
ed that he, the lieutenant, was as much
guilty of infraction of the rules as were the
accused for the reason that he had control
of them and should have awakened them.
He then asked the lieutenant If he thought
he doing his duty to allow the officers
to stay in the station house for period of
nearly two hours. The lieutenant stated
| that he thought that he had done his duty.
The mayor decided that the accused men
were guilty of dereliction of duty, and that
the lieutenant was much to blame as
were the others, for he should have awak-
ened them The men and the lieutenant
were accordingly suspended for period of
ten days each, to take effect at = o'clock

EYES ARE EXPRESSIONLESS
English Oculfst Advances the Theory
and Gives Some Reasons.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
There are no expressive eyes. The
preston Of the eye is really in the lid The
eye itself Independent Of its surroundings,
has no more expression than has a glass
marble. prominent English oculist makes
this daring statement. and he defends his
position with emphasis. The eyes have
no expression whatever" he says. How
do you explain the fact that the eyes of one
person are more expressive than those OF
fnothero" I am asked They not. The
difference consists in certain nervous con-
fractions of the lids peculiar to the indi-
.dual.
"Observe for yourself. and you will see
that I am right. We will say that / am
greatly interested in something, and my at
tention is suddenly called from 1t by an I'M
expected interruption. My upper eyelid
| raises itself just little. but the eye proper
| does not change an iota in appearance. If
| the interruption is but momentary. the ele-
walton of the lid will be but momentary. If
| the surprise caused by an interruption Is
| continued the lid may be raised even lit
| tie more. and. in fact the whole of the
forehead including the eyebrows, Is raised
and wrnkled. But the eye remains the
| same
When person is excited much the same
emotions are gone through continued the
doctor. His eyes are open wide, in cases
of intense excitement. to their greatest ex-
| tent. but the forehead is not wrinkled and
| the ball of the eye is expressive bit
| of glass No more.
| Observe the face of one who laughs. You
] will see that the lower eyelid has mus
| Gle of its own, and it is only by the con-
| traction of the adjacent muscles in smiling
| or laughing that it is made to move That
| is the reason that there are many wrinkles
| about the eyes Of merry persons.
| THE expression Of deep thoughtfulnesS is
| produced by the dropping of the upper lid.
! The lids of some persons fall so low that
| the pupil of the eye itself is the same. If
| the meditation is over a subject that Wor-
| ries the thinker the expression is again
| quite different. The eyelids contract and
| the eyebrows are lowered and drawn to-
| gether. This is true of reflective mood.
| LAS to emotional moods. there is the ex-
| preston of anger for instance. The eyes.
| instead of closing, are open wider than
| they are normally but the brows are
| closely knit
| I'm expressing sadness the entire upper
| eyelid comes about half way down and the
| folds of the Fkin collect there. giving the
| lid thick heavy appearance"

Too Much TechnicalitY.

70 q casual observer of court proceed
ing it appears that our judges are drift
ing into too much technically in their
instructions to jurors. We are getting
too elaborate, and in our efforts to be
fair we cumber the records with minute
details which to the ordinary juror are
impossible of analysis. There are too
many provisos and conditions in these
charges of judges, and not enough of
the simplicity that aids juror. The
average judges charge to jury in an
important case serves only to befog the
mind and give birth to scruples that
tend to defeat even handed justice.
The judicial mind seems to GO upon the
belief that the juror has given the in
tricacies of the law at least superficial
study, when as a matter of fact nine
jurors out Of ten know nothing about it
except that which they hear from the
mouth of the council in the cause
which they are to decide, or from the
instructions of the judge. Such being
the case, these long winded, hair-split-
ting charges should be curtailed and the
broad simplicity of facts resorted to-.
Nine out of ten jurymen who have just
emerged from one of these trial ordeals
will, when questioned. unhesitstingly
say that the judges instructions were
pot understood by them.-LsPorte Ar

Three Thousand Deaths Each Day.

The state board of health gives the
following cheerful general figures on
consumption victims:
Consumption hes claimed more vic
Tins than all the wars and all the
plaques and scourges of the human race.
Even since the few short years since
Rocks discovery of the consumption
germ. over 100000 persons on this con-
tinent have succumbed to its fatal in
lection. The annual tribute of the
United States TO this scourge is over
100000 of its inhabitants. Each year
the world yields up 1885, 900; each day,
1900; each minute, two of it's people as
sacrifice to this plague. Of the TO-
100000 individuals now peopling these
United States, 100000 must inevitably
die of this disease if the present ratio
is kept up. The repulsion of such an
enemy demands the highest attention
of government and of society
