A MIRACLE
Noted Anarchist Converted 10
Christianity
BURNS HIS LIBRARY
Is Lawfully Married to the
Woman He Had Lived
With for Years.

Boston, Oct GA special to the
Herald gives the particulars of the re-
markable conversion of the noted an
archist and atheist Guidelly to Chris
tianity, by George A. Simmons, a
mission worker.
The convert has pretty home at
Glen Ridge, NJ There he has lived
with woman and their children,
with his magnificent anarchical libra
ry-for he has no common man among
the ''reds''- with his statuettes and
his pictures of famous anarchists.
There he has read and written and
preached the gospel of disorder and
defiance.
He and the woman came from Italy,
where he had organized many groups,
since to this extent even anarchy does
believe in organization. They ar
rived here II years ago. According
to their tenents, they were bound by
no tie save that of a common love and
interest, and they could have broken
this slight bond at the will of either.
After Mr.. Simmons visit, Guidel-
ly sent for friend and offered bail.
He went home with new light, a
light Of rapture on his face. lie
seized hammer and knocked the
statuettes to pieces. His wife. or the
woman who passed as such, thought
him crazy, but he told her what had
happened, and how he had become a
Christian. All the expensive tones,
the books he had been collecting for
years, he piled in the yard and burned,
and the pamphlets that he had writ
ten he sent up in flame and smoke.

GREAT SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
Austrian Finds T Subtle Matter Which
 Ho Calls .EIectroid."


 Francis Ryehnowski, a mechanical engineer Of Lemberg, Austria, has dis covered a strange and very subtle matter, which he called eeleetroid" be- cause of certain affinity with elee- tricity. Electroid, produced by rpe- cial apparatus built by the inventor, is obtained by the dissolution of cer- tain matters under the influence Of the electric current. It makes noise, and at the same time refreshing scent and cool breeze are experienced. This discovery induced Mr. RyehnoW- ski to make machine capable of re- freshing the air 10 such a degree that those present during the experiment had the feeling that the window was open, although this was not the case. Electroid is a very subtle matter, but it seems to be a fluid, and it can be gathered and preserved. While falling OH a plate it reflects in shape of shining sheaves. Tie commission ap- pointed by the Austrian government to investigate this discovery reported that under the influence of eleetroid plants grow rapidly and the buds O. flowers unelose while one is looking at them. Eleetroid annlhnates microbes and thus preserves organic matter These are physiological influences of eieetroid. Among mechanical phe= nomena the commission reported that the influence of eleetroid is not stopped even by brick wall and glass; that it attracts solid bodies and makes them shine like moonlight-it makes them move and attract other bodies; finally, that it acts or photo graphic plates ana produces sharp and distinct lines, such as were formerly possible only with very powerful lens.

WHAT THE EAGLE SIGNIFIES.
Why It was Chosen as the Fsnblematic
Bird of America.

From the Detroit Free Press: IF ancient mythology the eagle was be- lieved to carry the souls of the dying to their abode on Mount Olympus and was called ehe bird of love. The eagle was first taken as q symbol of royal power by the ancient Etruseans, who bore its image upon their standard In the year {. B. c. silver eagle, with extended wings, poised on the top of a spear, with a thunderbolt held in it's claws, was adopted as the mili- tary standard to be borne at the head of their Iegions by the Romans. At the time of Hadrian golden eagle was substituted for the silver one. 4 fWo=headed eagle was adopted by the Byzantine emperors as a symbol of their control of both the east and the west. The double-headed eagle of Russia was adopted on the marriage of Ivan l. with Grecian princess of the eastern emptre; that of Austria Has first used when the emperor of Germany took tHe title of Roman em- heror. The national standard of Rus, sia# bears a black eagle, that of Poland a white one. Napoleon I. took a gold en eagle for his standard, modelled of pure gold and bearing a thunderbolt, after the pattern of the eagle of the Romans. This standard was disused under the Bourbons, but was restored by a decree of Louis Napoleon in 1852. The eagle was first used on American coins in 17S8, on cents and half-cents issued from the Massachusetts mint. It was adopted in the plan of a nation al coinage as design upon all golt coins and on the silver dollar, half dollar and quarter-dollar The design of the eagle was at one time suggested for the national flag, but was aban. | 3ned.

4 onain U. worded memefial.

A qHaintiy-w worded memorial has neen presented to the dowager empress of China and her faineant son on the subject of mining concessions to for eigners. In the opinion of the China men who have drawn up this memorial and who .'implore the sacred glance of sheir Majesties" for their strictly com- mercial proposal, the tsung-f-yamen and the board of mines have been a great deal too free in the granting of concessions. Whole districts have beer assigned to the eoncessionaires instead of clearly defined spots, whilst "hon- est, upright and worthy gentry and merchants" are left out in the cold. The memoria1ists propose that in fu- ture Chinamen and foreigners shall own an equal number of shares in any mining company. They go step further, and claim that the direction of mining companies shall rest in the hands of Chinese merchants; and sif foreigners object to this system, and ask that the direction be placed in their hands, their request shall not be entertained. The rapid advance in 1he last sentence from a business=Iike suggestion to sheer exc1usiYeness is decidedly amusing.

Mastodons in Beaver Damn.

The discovery of the remains of a mastodon near Newburgh, New York, last summer, recalls the fact that the best preserved skeleton of one of these huge animals now to be found in our museums was also discovered in a marsh near Newburgh That part of the Hudson Valley appears to have been a favorite haunt for these Ameri- can elephants. Inspection of the place where the latest discovery was made emphasizes the fact that beavers were Contemporaries of the mastodons, and that beaYer-dams were as perilous as Quieksan6is for the massive beasts who fentured to set foot in them.

Commencing February 25 the time for
travel by Salt Lake
City and Denver will be materially re-
duced. On the same date the Southern
Pacific, the Rio Grande lines and the
Burlington Route will establish through
