A NOVEL CIGAR HOLDER.
Captain Maitland Possesses One Made
From a Lobster's Claw.

Captain Maitland Possesses One Made
From Lobster's Claw.
There is novelty in the shape of a
cigar holder which is being introduced
into Kansas City. 1t is distinctly Eng
lish and decidedly uncanny. The holder
is made of the inside claw of the left
fin of the deep sea lobster.
Captain Maitland of the zoo has one
of the cigar holders, and he has present
ed several others to his friends As one
would naturally expect from the cap
tain, who has many interesting curios
about his person, his possessions are
very much out of the ordinary. He Sc
cured his lobster fin cigar holder some
time ago while on the Atlantic coast
He was in market place one day and
noticed a very fine specimen of lobster.
The captain is an Englishman, and,
having seen and used many of the
unique holders, decided that the claw
of this lobster would make a very fine
holder for his Havana. lie purchased
the lobster and cut off the claw and put
it in his trunk. A few weeks ago, struck
with the novelty of the thing in city
where even the lobster is not common,
to say nothing of the trinkets made
from the shell, he got out the shell and
polished it up. 1t makes an ideal cigar
holder. 1t is about two inches in length,
and one side of it is serrated. When it
is first used, it is bright red, the color
of a boiled lobster. AS the smoke and
nicotine penetrate the soft shell it grad
ually turns black as ebony. At first the
color begins in spots and then spreads
4Io l. L, Il,
exception of the teeth, which still retain
their vermilion hue.
In England, where the lobster shell
is much used in the manufacture of
trinkets, the cigar holder made of the
claw is very common. 1t is, however,
only about one lobster in 80 that is
available for this use The jeweler takes
the holder in the rough and polishes it.
He puts an amber tip on it and a silver
or gold band on the large end, and it
sells easily. 1t much resembles a meer-
schaum, and people who have used
these holders for long periods of time
say that they get to like the taste of
the lobster holder as much as the cigar
itself.
The captain was presented a few
days ago with the left paw of a mon
key, which was formerly the property
of little Edna, who belonged to Bert
Scott of the Capital saloon. Mr.. Scott
was the advance agent of Coles, Mid
dleton's and Lemen Bros. circuses.
The paw has become mummifed, and
gold bands have been placed around it.
It is intended for a watch charm and
will hereafter be displayed upon the
vest of the captain. City

turned into darkness, but only the
| clouds rolled between the sun and the
earth. The sun went right on. It is the
same sun, the same luminary, as when
at the beginning it shot out like an
electric spark from Gods finger, and
today it is warming the nations, and
today it is gliding the sea, and today it
is filling the earth with its light. The
same old sun, not at all worn out
though it's light steps one hundred and
ninety million miles a second, though
its pulsations are four hundred and fifty
trillion undulations in a second. The
same sun with beautiful white light
made up of the violet, and the indigo,
and the blue, and the green, and the
red, and the yellow, and the orange
the seven beautiful colors, now just as
when the solar spectrum first divided
them.
At the beginning God said, "Let
there be light" and light was, and
light is, and light shall be. So Chris
tianity is rolling on, and it is going to
warm all nations, and all nations are
to bask in it's light. Men may shut the
window blinds so they cannot see it, or
they may smoke the pipe of speculation
until they are Swallowed under their
own vaporing, but the Lord God is a
sum- This white light of the gospel
made up of all the beautiful colors of
earth and heaven-violet plucked from
amid the spring grass, and the indigo
of the southern jungles, and the blue of
the skies, and the green of the foliage,
and the yellow of the autumnal woods
and the orange of the southern groves,
and the red of the sunsets. All the
beauties of earth and heaven brought
out by this spiritual spectrum. Great
Britain is going to take all Europe for
God. The United States are going to
take America for God. Both of them
together will take all Asia for God. ALI
three of them will take Africa for God.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, they cannot reach the dis
eased portion of the ear There is only one way ia
cure deafness, and that is by constitutional rene
dies Deafness is caused by an infamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored to its
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh which
is nothing but an inhamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

G. Il. r. AND w. r. C TO HOLD AN
ENCAMPMENT IN MONTREAL.

| Mrs. Amanda T. Newcomb, presi-
dent of the State department Of the
Woman's Relief Corps, and Mrs. Ellen
M. tSeaver, her secretary, returned
last week from Montreal, where she
has been in conference with L. B.
Harris of Lyndonville, commander OF
| the Vermont division of the G. A. R.,
to arrange for the holding of the an
nual encampments of the two bodies
in that city.
1t was decided to hold the encamp-
ment ON Wednesday and Thursday,
June 81 and %, with headquarters at
tire palatial Windsor hotel. On Tues-
day evening, June 20, Hancock corps
of Montreal will give a reception to
the visiting corps iu the parlors of the
Windsor.
On Thursday morning, June %, a
grand parade is to be held in which
the fraternal and military organiza-
tions of Montreal with the visiting
bodies will participate. The parade
will be led by the mayor of the city
and the captain general of the mill
tary.
Among the prominent people of
Vermont who are expected to be pre-
sent at the encampmenta and take part
in the exercises are Gov. Smith, Sen
ator Proctor, Congressman Grout and
ex-Gov. Josiah Grout. The commit
tee is also arranging for the presence
of other notables from this State and
abroad.
Nothing will be left undone to make
this one of the most interesting and
suspicious meetings yet held by these
bodies. Half-fare rates have been
secured over the railroads and at the
hotels.
A committee is now engaged in ar
ranging for cheap excursions to be
run from Montreal at the time of the
encampment to Ottawa, Quebec and
other points of interest in Canada.
Because of the close proximity of the
place of meeting to Vermont, it is
now estimated that fully 1000 will at
tend from this State alone.-Free
