WILD MAN ON A MOUNTAIN.
Our New Island of Tutuila Has Genu-
inc Human Curiosity.

Our New Island of TutuiIa Has Genu-
inc Human Curiosity.
In letter from Civil Engineer Il. Il.
Gaylor to his family in st. Louis, dated
Pago Pago Island of Tutuila, the fol-
lowing incident is related:
Here is sensational real. genuine
wild man. Twelve years ago three
Solomon Islanders (cannibals), who
were brought to Upolu to work on the
German plantations at Vailele, escaped
from Upolu. built a rude raft of logs
and drfted by wind and wave over the
seventy miles of unknown sea to Tu-
tuila. Here they lived for a time in
a mountain retreat. One was shortly
afterward killed by the Samoans, and
some time after this happened the re-
naming two parted company and never
Igain met.
"A week ago on mountain side, over
hanging Laulu, in an almost in
accessible fastness, a wandering Sam
oan found banana patch, a small taro
field and a rude hut, and caught a
glimpse of man as he disappeared up
the mountain side.
"a party was organized which de-
stroyed the plants and fired the hut.
Yesterday a naked man, armed with a
bow and arrow, tall, slnewy, long
haired and blacker than your widest
fancy could paint him, stalked into Ana
and pointed to his mouth, demanding
food. They brought him over to Fago
Toga the principal town on the Bay Of
Pago Pago. His face, arms and body
were finely tattooed In black lines,
which could hardly be seen against his
ebony skin. He stood head and shoul-
ders above the Samoans and white men,
who regarded him with the greatest re-
spect. He is accused Of Staying sew
eral Samoans who have disappeared in
late years"

American Actress and Irish Mar
chioness Like Twins.
1t is not often that two persons not
related by ties of consanguinity are re-
markable for their resemblance to each
other, yet there are occasionally such
phenomena. On recent visit to Lon
don Miss Julia Marlowe, the American
actress, had the pleasure of meeting
her double in the person of the mar
chioness of Downshires, an Irish lady
of quality. Feature for feature the
two were exact counterpartS of each
other, and a stranger to both, meeting
them together, would avow they were
twin sisters. 1t is needless to say that
both are charming women. They are
alike in height, weight and coloring.
Miss Mariowe is justly considered one
of the handsomest women on the Am
erican stage, while the marchioness of
Downshires is looked upon as one of
the most charming members of the
Irish nobility, and, what is even more
to her credit, she is peculiarly sweet
and accomplished woman. Before her
marriage she was Miss Hare, grand
daughter of the earl of Listowel, and
by her marriage to the eighth earl of
Downshires. the Irish beauty, whosC

Charles H. Cramp, the great
ship builder, says if he could have
the profit on the 5000 armor plate
which he is compelled to purchase
from Carnegie's he could afford to
build governmnnt vessels at cost.
He acknowledges that the govern
ment is being robbed by legislative
connivance, yet he feels and says in
his own testimony that by robbing
the government through the ship
subsidy bill, the nation would be-
come prosperous. In other words
it hurts Mr.. Cramp to be held up
BY the Carnegie company on armor
plate, but he cannot see anything
wrong in the ship builders robbing
the government. Strange code of
honesty Mr.. Cramp possesses.

Longs expedition was ma69 T. 1890
He passed within q few mfl1s = the
most Of the best gold regions u the
state, but as he was not looking for
gold he did not lind them. He found
only what he was looking for.
Fremont's expedition was made in
1913 and succeeding years. He saw
more of Colorado than any previous ex-
plorer and passed within sight OF most
of the great gold fields since discovered,
but as he was not looking for mineral
he did not find it.
Gunnison's expedition OF 1858 to look
out for transcontinnntal railroad route
passed many streams which we know
contained placer gold, but he was look
ing for something else and he did not
prospect" them.
AT the least fifty thousand Normons
crossed the mountains to Utah between
1s4s and 1858, most Of them to the
north Of Colorado. but some OF them
certainly through the Colorado passes.
They found no gold because they were
thinking Of something else.
In the winter OF 1867 Captain
Marcy traversed the whole length Of the
inter-mountain region Of Colorado with
a considerable force OF soldiers going
from Fort Bridger in Wyoming to Fort
Union in New Mexico, passing the
Rfeat gold placers Of California gulch
(since called Leadville) and never found
a colOr-because he was not looking for
gold but for food.
From the period Of Pixies expedition
to that Of Fremont's first, the Colorado
mountains swarmed with an army of
trappers in the employ Of the big fur
companies of st. Louis, and none of
them discovered gold. although they
were walking over it year after year.
They were not looking for 1t, they were
looking for furs.
All this time, however. 1t is said Oc-
casional nuggets Of gold found their
way into the hands OF trappers and
Indian-pOst traders from the mountain
tribes and it was known that gold ex-
listed. But it seems never to have oc-
cured to any Of these to 20 and search
for 1t. Their minds were fixed on some
thing else.
The moral of this experience is. If
you want to find gold hunt for it with
YOUR mind fixed on that purpose and
nothing else.
But at last the day of gold in Colo
RADIO was about to arrive. Captain
Marcy making his way back to Bridger
from Fort Union halted on the Platte
above Denver to rest his stock few
days in June, 1857. Some Of bis sol
diers, who had probably been In Call

washed the sands of the Platte in their
camp pans and discovered colors-most
encouraging colors. ANYBODY can ind

Soda Water to Relieve Hunger.
Modern Medicine.

Water charged with carbonic acid
gas-in other words, soda water-is
now prescribed as a palliative for hun
ger, especially for an abnormal sense
of hunger due to disease. Carbonic
acid gas has the singular property of
fessening the sense OF hunger, and may
proftably be remembered in dealing
with cases of diabetes in which bull
mia abnormal hunger) is prominent
symptom. The seat of hunger is
found in the solar plexus. By the use
of water charged with carbonic acid
gas the branches Of the solar plexus
distributed through the mucous men,
brane of the stomach are influenced
in such a way that the abnormal irri-
tation Of the plexus, which is the
foundation for the ravenous hunger
often present in diabetes and certain
forms of indigestion, may be greatly
mitigated if not wholly appeased.
Water charged with carbonic acid gas
may likewise be employed with advan-
tage in many cases of dyspepsia in
which there is sensation present in
the stomach described by the patient
as growing sensation, "goneness,"
emptiness, etc.

A Crow C.aw.Cus.

The writer in the Port Oxford Inde-
pendent says that the crows greatly
bothered the apples in his orchard this
year and describes birds rs Coming
wide awake and upto.date." He
thought to scare the birds by putting
up strips of bright tin suspended on
crossbars on poles, among the apple
trees. The result was, delegation
from the main body on the day after
the strips were put up, which circled
about over the orchard with many q
loud cav, as these strips of tin would
whirl and fash in the sunlight; going
away without lighting. This was re-
peated the next day in larger numbers
and on the third day-having reported
seemingly that there was no danger
they came in full force, filling every
apple tree that had fruit on, and even
lighting on the cross bars of the poles.
The only hope of the owners then lay
in hustling, and getting the fruit off
the tree.

Pedigree Of tho Infant Prince Born 70 thu
Duke and Duchcss OF York.
The infant prince who has Just been
born into the line Of succession to the
throne has Of course all the ancestry
OF his illustrious father, and is on his
mothers side, through the duke of
Teck, sprung from the, reigning house
OF Wurtemberg and from the early
kings of Prussia. Though not de.
scended from the elder branch Of. Stu.
art, he is distant cousin of the prin.
cess OF Bavaria, who is now the head Of
that line, and he is also distantly re-
lated to the car Of Russia.
He inherits no title, her majesty hav.
ing some years ago decreed that the
style Of royal highness should belong
only to her own children and the chill
dren Of her sons. No English SOW.
ereign before Queen Victoria ever lived
to see q great-grandchild. Indeed,
none between Edward III. and George
I. even saw a grandchild, with the ex.
ception OF James H., who survived the
infants of his daughter Anne.
Concerning the new prince the Leeds
Mercury also notes that he is at the
same time third cousin to his father
and second cousin, twice removed, Ia
his mother. The duke Of Kent and the
duke Of Cambridge, sons Of George ILL.,,
were brothers. Their respective chill.
dren, Queen Victoria and the duchess
of Teck, are first cousins. In turn the
prince Of Wales and the duchess Of
York are second cousins so that the duke
OF York and the new prince are, as has
been stated, third cousins to each other
On the other hand, the duchess of Yorl
is second cousin, once removed, to the
duke Of York, and therefore second
cousin, twice removed, to his son, tn
newborn prince.

The recent crash in Wall street,
which shot money up to 186 per cent.
and closed the Globe National of Bos-
ton and several other banks, was one
of the most portentous events in the
history of the country. Rockefeller,
Pierpont Morgan and other multi
millionaires cleared" the market for
copper stock, in order to get full con-
troll of all the copper mines in the
country: With the assistance of the
Secretary of the Treasury, Mr.. Gage,
they succeeded. Now copper will go
up. So enormous has become the &C.
emulation of wealth in the hands of
the few, that, at will, by banding to-
gether, they can at any time produce
a financial panic. Out of the wrecks
of their victims fortunes they then
can make more millions. The power
of the millionaires has become an i'm
minent danger to the country that

A Slight Error.

A clergyman was very anxious to
introduce some hymn books into the
church, and arranged with his clerk
that the latter was to give the notice
Immediately after the sermon. The
clerk, however, had a notice of his
own to give out with reference to the
baptism of infants. Accordingly, at
the close of the sermon he arose and
announced:
Cali those who have childrea whom
they wish to have baptized please send
their names at once to the clerk"
The clergyman, who was stone deaf,
assumed that the clerk was giving out
the hymn.book notice, and immediate
ly arose and said:
"And should say for the benefit OF
those who haven't any, that they may
be obtained at the vestry any day from
three to four O'Clock; the ordinary
little one at one dollar each, and
