PRICES FOR SKELETONS.
Latest Quotations from tho European
 Markets for Teeth.


 Paper Europe has caused an out cry from new line of American in- dustry, says the Philadelphia Times. American artieulators of skeletons are up in arms against the importation of the pauper skeletons of Europe. Ma tive bones, in consequence of recent importations, are quiet and depressed, while the demand is for the products of the French and German markets. First-class American skeletons are drug in the market at S8012.50, while the Gallic or Teutonie article, not one whit more serviceable, brings a fancy price. 4 recent Frenehman, who hap pened to depart this life with full set of teeth, is offered at s35, ordinarily imported skeletons going from $20 to S27.50, according to the number Of teeth they were shy. Purchasers can. not be fooled by false teeth The only superiority in the foreign article is in the matter of complexion Frenchmen and Germans wHo have shed all of themselves except their bones bleach better, or their survivors are able to bleach them better. IT the matter of articulation the American workman is perhaps the superior of the European artist. but he cannot get in the tints and the refreshing shades of complex ion so much admired by skeleton ex- perts. or those who desire such articles for household ornamentation. Skulls are $2.50@3.25. varying according to size and the skill displayed in prepara- tion. A skull that was prepared for the market with a brick is not in as much favor as one that found it's way in by the natural channels. The de- mand for pelVises is light. at S140D 2.65; tibia, in slight cali at 45055c. Feet articulated are quoted: Lefts, $292.75; rights, S210Q2S5; west sides (by weight only), $4.30. Hands are slow and generally unsatisfactory at $1@450, although 8 fancy price, $G840 was paid for one recently just before the close of the market, or rather an inspection was secured of it for that sum. Wooden legs are heavy and slow, but continue moving Up and down peg In teeth it's the same old grind Full sets are moving up and down at $3@125; bienspids, by the brace, are steady at $2@2.75; molars, dull at 75c 0$6. Wisdom are dear.

BLIND MAN AT THE RACES.
As Interested and Excited as Those
 Who Can See.

'sI was out at the race track one day last winter said merchant, when I was accosted by a man who was holding the hand of little boy. It was a former friend, whom I had not seen for years and who had become totally blind He told me that he rec ognized my voice, and while we stood there talking the bell rang from the track. They're going to starti he ex- claimed, excitedly Come! Let's get into the grandstand 9s quickly as we eani' After we secured seats couldn't help expressing surprise at his eager ness. oh. that's all right he replied abstractedly I bet I'll get nearly as much out of it as yop do, and after watching him through the next race became convinced that he was telling the truth. To begin with, he fired a Yolley of short, sharp questions at the boy, and in that way obtained good general idea of the situation. Then he leaned forward like a man about to spring. 1 never saw such an attitude of fierce and concentrated attention. To say that he seemed to be listening doesn't begin to express it. He seemed to be literally absorbing everything that was going on around him. His chin was lifted, his lips were a little apart, red spot came and went on his cheeks, and I could see the big veins in his neck throbbIng like an engine. It was an uncanny spectacle. I couldn't get rid of the feeling that he was exercising some unnatural, super human faculty. After the race vas run he dropped back, relaxed, and sat there Istless and inert until the next tap of the bell Later, when we were in the street car, tried to learn some thing of his experience. He smiled good-natHred1y, but found difficulty in making me understand. I get a lot of pleasure out Of the races, he said, and can follow some of them almost as we'll as if had my sight. I can't tell ex- aetly how it is done. l suppose my brain has become trained to catch hun dfeds of little cues-the shouts Of the people on she track. the exclamations of the crowd, the cheers and laughs and groans and curses. the chance re- marks Of passers; yes, even the chatter of feet-eEerything means something to me, and although it builds up pie ture in my mind, feel it somewhere in the air, and get so excited that l for get all about being blind. Ohi no. he said, I wouldn't miss the races for anything New Orleans Times Democrat.

Tortured spanish Prisoners.

h view of the inquiry which 1t fs understood has been granted by the Spanish government into the charges of torturing prisoners in the casemates of Montjuieh, in Spain. it may be Of interest to set out some of the-4tems in the indictment made against the authorities. It is said. in the first place. that a reward of 10000 pesetas WAS offered to any jail official who could extort an aFowal of guilty from 9 prisoner. Acting under this stima- Jus the iailers are stated to have forced the wretched creatures under their control to run round their cells day and night for eighty hours at a stretch, heavy whips being used to keep the victims awake. The officials are also said to have deprived them Of all food save salt stock fish and ardent spirits, confession being the price of glass of water Not few paid it. slaked their thirst, and. it is contend ed, were gummarily shot. It is further alleged that wedges were driven under the nails of the prisoners with ham, mers and allowed to remain until the nails sloughed away. Even mere hor rible mutilations are stated not to have been uncommon. One Of the most cruel devices was, it is affirmed. machine like a divers helmet, fitted with tube allowing the victim Sto breathe. while a screw compressed slowly the sides and top. thus produce ing inconceiyable agony One pris- oner, Moras, is stated to have under gone this torture more than once, and to have been driven mad by it.

ELECTRIC NIAGARA.
Great Falls to Be Transformed Into
 Flood of Fire.

Great Falls to Be Transformed Into a
 Flood of Fire.
 BuffalO's big exDesitien-and if only one-half the promises Of the manage ment are realized 1t will be in every respect 8 big affair-will be the oeca- sicn Of what will doubtless be a most brilliant and startling electrical illu- imitation. Niagara Falls will be trans formed into a flood Of fire. Tie seeth- ing, roaring torrent will De aBlaze with al the hues of the spectrum. The superlative natural grandeur of the scene will be so enhanced tl4at the projectors of the strikingly novel en- terpfise contend that its success will make the exposition an event in his tory. The idea is to erect a series Of tall towers on both the American and Canadian sides of the river On the tep Of these lofty spires huge electric gearehlights will be placed, in such manner that they may be played on any part of the falls. The imagination may picture the dazzling effect that will be produced when 2 score of those powerful instruments of illumination are brought 10 hear upon the rushing waters as they tumble irresistlbly over the rocky ledge into the depths be- meath. A constant change of eoIors will be used in the manipulation of the aearehlights, so that now the falls will be like molten silver. again a flood Of crimson, again as green as old ocean itself and so on through the whole gamut of the painters palette. The astonishing effect will be still fur ther heightened by the use of electric arc lights in the Cave of the Winds, which will give to the water as it falls in front of it 3 weird, phosphote escent glow. The power for this record making illumination will be all within easy reach, as Niagara will itself be made to do all the necessary work. This is expected to be largely a spec tacular arrangement, but scientists hope to discover something new about the effect of light on water, and make a careful study of the chemistry of color. This has been done to some extent with electric fountains. but Niagara will offer an entirely new field

As the fila ment is of a highly refractory, non. conducting, porous material, the in terior will be subjected to the effect o' the vacuum in the globe, which will assist in the conduction of the current through the carbon particles. The highly refractory material consists of an oxide or oxides of the rare earths, such as oxide of zireonium or thorium. In order to provide an exterior surface for the flament which will radiate light it is momentarily dipped in the salt of the oxide, such as the acetate, HDAS4 VIII 4SelaC 1AO Wi oES1 Ndl-a bonization, and provide a white radiat. ing surface. h making the fiiament, q compound, such as a solution Of sugar, asphalt, or tartrate of the oxide It. self. is mixed with t11e refractory ...ss.ss-- ...ss.ssss- terial, q residue of carbon thus results ing upon earbanization.

Are Building Up Home Industries by
 the Aid of Chicago Machinery.
 Chicago is building up by no means Insignificant trade with Japan. The Yankees of the Orient" are quick to discern whatever is of utility to them in the mechanic arts, and as conse- quenee they are supplying themselves with machinery for the development of their industries direct from the facto- In the history of the entire world no other nation has experienced such a remarkable growth in its commerce with Japan as has the United States. Japanese official figures give the im- portations from the United States in 1893 at 6,090, ,408 yen and in 1898 at 40,- 001 .097 yen Meantime her importa- tions from England increased from 27,- 929,628 yen to 62,707,572 yen; those from Germany from 7,31S,134 yen to 25,610,961 yen; those from France from 3,305,277 yen to 6,979, ,982 yen, and those from China from 17,095,975 yen to 30,- 523, ,860 yen, while the only part of the world which has experienced an in crease at all to be compared with that of the United States is the British East Indies, whose increase has been from 8,679629 in 1893 to 40764, ,244 yen in 1898. Japan,s importations have grown enormously in the last five years. h 1893 they amounted te 22 .2s7, ,1z2 ven and in 1898 to 277,502.166 yen Mean time her exports have grown from 89.- 712.864 yen in 1893 to 165,753,752 yen in 1898. Thus the exports have doubled and the imports have trebled in the pe- riod under consideration. The disposi- ton Of Japan is to look 10 the United States for a constantly increasing pro- portion of it's supplies. Tn 1893 the United States furnished less than T per cent of the imports into Japan and in 1898 14.4 per cent, while England, the principal competitor in the markets Of the east, which in 1893 furnished g per cent of Japan,s importatfons, in 1898 furnished 22.6 per cent. Not only have the producers and exporters of the United States developed in the last few years a disposition to push their sales in that country, but Japan herself is showing a disposition to make her purchases from the nearest markets those of the United states-and has recently established steamship lines connecting with United States ports. Japan by reason of recent events is the nearest neighbor= to the United States, aside from those whose territory is ae- tuaIly tigRous-Ganada and Mexico. Her comparatively recent exchange of mainland territory to Russia for the line of islands stretching northWardly from her central group brings her ter ritory to within about 800 miles of that of the United States in the Aleu- tan chain Of islands, while at the south her newly acquired nd of Formosa lies within less than 200 miles of the Philippines. Thus not only are the United States and Japan neighhors territorially, but their insular posses sions combined stretch along the en- tire Pacific coast Of Asia from arctic to equatorial waters.--Chicago Chron- iele.
