HAIR PLANTING.

successf Il Experiments of a Turkish
 Physician.
 A Turkish physician has beez1 ex- psrimenting successfully on the trans planting of hairs one by one to bald parts of the scalp His results seem to show that there is no impossibility in the complete renewal of a lost head q hair by this means. The physician. Js .teEshem Hodara, according to fol isn paper, tried his experiments ill ti.e case of a disease that had re- moved part of his patients hair. His plan was to scarify the bare surface and to implant thereon hairs removed from other parts of the patients head. The hairs used for the purpose were trimmed with scissors at each end. Some four weeks after implantation a certain number of the hairs were found to have taken root, and in no long time goodly new crop was pro- duced. Encouraged by these results. Dr. Hodara has since applied the method i'll other cases of badness fol- lowing favus, and he thinks himself justified in stating that "clinieally there can be no doubt as to this very curious fact-that small bundles of 1air stems cut with scissors and im- planted in the incisions made with the scarifier can take root and grow, form ing in time long and visible hairs" By microscopic examination he has satisfied himself that after some weeks real new bulb forms at the lower end o. the implanted hair. Dr. Hoda- ra's results are interesting in them selves, ahd still more in the promise which they appear to offer of further results, undreamed of, or at any rate unmentioned, by the ingenious experi- menter. Why, asks the New York Herald should not the same treatment be applied in cases of ordinary bald ness? Many bald men would gladly submit to have their scalps ploWed and afterward sown with new hairs if there was reasonable hope Of even moderate harvest,

cURFEw IS UPHELD.
One TowD Which Finds the Evening
 Bell a Success.

Elmira is trying the virtue of a cur few ordinance. Its express purpose is to keep out of the streets the e..ildren who have been permitted to frequent them in the evening without restraint heretofore, says the Elmira Advertiser. It takes effect at 9 o'clock in the sum- mer and at o'clock during the win- ter. The effect of the rule has beeR watched with interest, and no one can doubt that the new rule will be as faithfully enforced hereafter as it has been during the first week. Only one arrest has been made, but that was sufficient to show the intention of the police department to enforce the ordi- nance in a fair and reasonable man. ner. According to all the testimony at hand it aecomplishes the purpose for which it was passed. Children, and young girls in particular, are no long CT seen promenading the streets h groups or singly, and the gain for or der is plainly noticeable. There Is disposition shown in the press of other cities to poke fun at the course pur- sued here, but our citizens care nothing sor that They are trying honestly an experiment from which much good Is hoped, and their expectations have met no d4sappointments up to today. Instead of laughing at our village" similarly afflicted communities would do well to adopt the same course of treatment for what is everywhere ac- knowiedged to be a serious evil. If large numbers of the young can be kept out of temptation and from evil courses by so simple device, it Is far wiser to try it than to teer at 1t. It is not laughing matter at all, but one of grave moment to the welfare of nearly all large towns. Our expert ment Is worthy of general imitation. for 1t Is a great success In its begin hing.

rbe Beautiful Appearance of the 1n.
 terior of Nevada Cavern,
 On the north side of the Osgood range of mountains, about four miles east of Eden creek, there is natural cave of quite large dimensions. It Is in the limestone formation and has the appearance of an old worked-eut mire with it's stopes, raises and winzes. It is almost impossible to find the entrance, as it is covered with a growth of underbrush. The first thing that person notices is small ereviee ir the rocks. but as he crawls into the creviee on hands and knees he finds that it widens as he goes down About fifteen feet from the entrance man can stand up and walk down the gradual incline, which is at about 60 degrees. At a place thirty feet from the mouth there is raise some thirty feet high and drift forty feet long. The sight which meets the cave seekers gaze at this point is most beautiful. On the ceiling large stalae- tites hang in clusters. and the walls are decorated with crystals of lime in- .ermingled with drops of water, giving 1t the appearance of being set with millions of diamonds. Farther down the cave widens until a chamber is reached which is over sixty feet across and over fifty feet high. There are numerous other passages or caverns. and on the left there Is passage biz enough to admit the body, that opens into second chamber which is about twenty feet across and ten or fifteen feet high. In the main chamber. some twenty feet high, can be seen the open- ing of another chamber, but as there Is no timber near to make ladders the upper cavern has not yet been explored. There are, no doubt, other large chambers which could be found were closer exploration to be made Stalactites and stalagmites can be seen in all directions. Water Is dropping continually, and the light of candle shining upon these crystals and drops of water gives the cave very en- trancing appearance. This cave Is the home of the wood rat, and there are indications that there might be thou sands of the little animals which make this natural wonder their home.-Win- nemucca Silver State.

odd Pet of Young Woman Who Lives
 at Lake Blur and Goes in Surf.
 when the ne.,nbors first observed Miss Stella Tunnison in the rolling waves of Lake Michigan on the sandy beach at Lake Bluff they thought nt- tie of the occurrence Even when close observers noticed duck swimming around in clese previmity to the young woman it was looked upon as 8 coin cidence. But when on other occasions It was observed that the young woman and the duck took the water together, left at the same time and walked across the beach side by side to the bathhouse, then the watchers knew they had something to talk about. Miss Tunnison is perhaps the first society girl to make a pet of duck and go bathing in company With her quacking friend. Other girls have taken in" their pet dogs on occasion, but duck for swimming companion is certain. ly an innovation. The fowl makes no attempt to swim far from it's mis- tress when they take their daily trip. It accompanies her solemnly across the sand to the waters edge and when she wades in with little screams over the chilliness of the water the duck boldly breasts the waves and paddles around delightedly. While Miss Tun- nison is splashing in the shallow wa ter the duck remains Gear until she has finished her "dip" and then con- tentedly accompanies her to shora

TESTING A NEW SHELL.
The Isham Projectlle Astonishes .
 Number of Experts.

<suhaOCA OA LA AP<A tSs
 The first considerable quantity of high explosive to be fired from an or dinary gun against armor was seat against 12-inch Harveyized plate at the Sandy Hook proving grounds re- gently. The projectile was shell in vented by Willard s. Isham, carrying 1291s pounds of explosive gelatine and weighing, loaded, a little more than 1000 pounds. It was fired from an or dinary 12-inch sea-coast defense gun, with reduced charge, so that the velocity of the projectile at the plate was about the same as if it had been fired with full service charge of pow der at a distance of two miles. The plate was backed with square oak beams and 20 feet of sand. The beams strength than the ordinary framing be- hind the armor of battleship. To make the test conform yet more to the condition of firing against an armored battleship, the plate was set at an angle of 45 degrees to the line of fire. There is no form of armor-piercing shell made that will perforate Harvey ized armor plate set at that angle, and It was not expected that the Isham she'll would penetrate it. In fact. there was considerable diversity of opinion as to just what it would do, and good many persons were interested in the results of yesterdays test. There was still doubt as to what had happened when the testing party started for the scene of the explosion from the firing point The thick, dark smoke from the explosion of the shell showed that the full energy of it's contents had not been developed, owing to an imperfect detonation. If perfectly detonated, perfectly white smoke is made. In spite Of the imperfect detoL 4 the plate of armor was deated in about two inches and was blown through it's oak backing and through corner of the big sand pile, IT feet from where 1t had been set up.-New York Sun.

n.rh. rous Proceedings In nnnsarx.

An extraordinary story is reported from komorn, in Hungary. The off, cia.s of the municipality of Mocsa, in tie Komorn Comitat, are accused oi having applied torture to persons im- prisoned on suspicion of theft. It seems that some time ago the safe of the municipality was robbed of nearly 5000 forins. Numerous arrests were made, but the thieves were not discov- cred. It was then that torture was applied to six of the prisoners, among whom are three women. The mayor and councillors were present The pris- oners were thrashed with red-hot iron rods. burning spirit lamps were placed under their bare feet, and the blades of pen knives inserted under their fin- ger nails. These barbarous proceed ,ngs did not lead to the desired result. and finally the thief, who was not among tile six, confessed his guilt Strange to say neither the mayor nor the worthy members of the council have get been suspended.
