Wideawake and alert as the detective
was it was a long time before he learned
how the newspapers were really stolen.
One morning as he was watching the
residences near Oakley and Warren av-
enues, which ia the locality where the
papers had regularly disappeared, he
saw a dog dash for paper and run
swiftly away with it. So astounded
was he that he forgot to give chase
until the criminal succeeded in getting
away with his booty. To the thefts of
the dog the police now ascribe all the
complaints of newspapers missing In
this district.

Marking HoQ,eboId LINEN

1t Is customary to mark household
linen which is made before marriage
with the maiden name of the bride.
but after marriage the initial of the
husbands last name is taken. If the
marking is done with ink write the
lastnamein full, but If embroidered, use
only the initial. The tablecloths may
be embroidered in the center or in
one corner. 1 prefer to have all house
hold linen marked in the corners. You
may buy at any of the large dry-goods
stores kid letters in all sizes, from
those suitable for handkerchief up
TO those large enough for household
linen. A plain white tablecloth Is
suitable for all occasions. Unless one

Josiah Harrison, who said that he
'lived down in Maine," was an unwill-

his ticket instead of a postal card into

REMARKABLE WOMAN.
and Embrotders with Her Teeth
and Tongue.

II has often been said that q woman's
most Trustworthy weapon is her tongue,
bat Il has been left to Fannie W. Turi-
pom, OF Sag Hsrbor, L. L, to show the
world what a very useful organ the
slossal organ really Is. says Philadel-
phia Times correspondent.
Thirty years ago Miss Tunison was
born, and, to the grief of her parents,
she was found to be suffering from a
form of infantile paralysis which total
~ incapacitated her from using either
her upper or lower extremities. Her
parents were only poor farmers, in q
small way OF business, and Fannie's
affection not only weighed heavily upon
their minds, but upon their pockets as
well.
But Miss Tunison has turned her
shortcomings to good account. De-
prived OF the use of her limbs, she gets
along perfectly well with her tongue,
and paints, embroiders and writes q
better hand-or rather meuth-than
most people who are blessed with the
use OF their ten digits. She makes more
money, too, than the majority of her
feilow-townsmen, for last year she
earned over $1,000 by executing orders
for pictures given to her by summer
visitors at Sag Harbor.
Miss Tunison's work is of no mean OF
der. The pictures that she paints COM
pare favorably with any amateur art
lists, and she paints with considerable
quiclcness. So proficient Is she at WELD
Ing the brush with her tongue that she
excels at copying, and she possesses
several canvases that would bring cred
1t to any copyist. She Is especially good
At painting pictures Of the Montauk
Point lighthouse, and the little picture,
which takes her less than 20 minutes to
paint, she sells TO visitors for the price
OF one dollar.
But 1t is not only as an artist that
Miss Tunison shines. She Is expert at
fancy work as well, and, wonderful as
1t may seem, she is perfectly able to
thread her needle and use the scissors.

She never requires the assistance of
anybody, and all the work she turns
out is done strictly by herself.
When Miss Tunison is at work she is
seated in a chair which has been spe-
cially made for her. From the aHn of
the chair rises a metal rod which sup
ports a small wooden table, and it is
upon the table that all the work is
done.
In spite OF her affection, Fannie al
ways has a cheerful word for visitors.
Indeed, 1t is her greatest pleasure to re-
ceive company, and she is never so
happy as when she can show off her
wonderful powers.
In appearance Fannie differs some
what from the ordinary mortal. Ow-
ing to the excessive use of her tongue.
the muscles of the neck are extremely
well developed and stand out thick and
prominent Her eyes, too, have a
langnid look about them and roll, when
abe speaks, in a peculiar manner. Her
speech is thick and heavy, no doubt
due to the excessive size of her tongue.
Thewsy In which she threads a needle
IL peculiar. She first holds the needle
IN her teeth for the purpose Of planting
u hrmly In the wooden table before
her. She then takes up the cotton, bit
ing II Off the length she requires. The
next step is to hold the cotton with her
nps' which she screws up in peculiar
manner. Khen in a trice, before one
can say Jack Robinson" she takes
aim at the eye of the needle before
her, and ten chances to one, the needle
Is threaded.

contest for reelection to the State Sem
ate, in which capacity he has served
with distinction for the past eight years,
issues the following card:
"To THE REPUBLICANS OF JEFFERSON
AND INDIANA COUNTIES:
81 will not enter the contest for the
nomination for State Senator at this
time. recognize Indiana county's
rights in this matter, and am entirely
satisfied with the gentleman put for
ward by the Republicans OF that county
as my successor, in the person OF John
S. Fisher. Esq. His character is be-
yond reproach and his ability is unques-
toned. Having made his own way in
the world from boyhood, securing a
n good education and front rank at
the Indiana county bar solely by his own
efforts, he is entitled to the kindly con-
sideration OF all persons who believe in
helping those who have struggled
through poverty and adversely to an
honorable place among men, without
the assistance oi others. He is Re-
publican OF the truo-blue variety, who
will prove an honor and not q disap-
pointment to his party.
81 am abundantly grateful to the peo-
pie OF Jefferson and Indiana counties
for the honors accorded me, and feel
that have not been entirely unsuccess-
ful in my efforts TO be useful to them
during a service of eight years in the
State Senate. But l regard it as my
duty to keep faith with Indiana county,
not only because 1t is right, but because
the people OF that county will then have
no excuse to break faith with us. While
am going out of Office | am not going
out OF politics, and will still be in posi-
tion to help my friends. have no
grievances, and trust that my Republi-
canism is OF the sort that does not sour,
but grows better, with age"

We are informed that, for the purpose
Of deceiving the farmers, and prejudic-
ing them against certain men, some un-
scrupulous persons have been circulat-
ing the report that, by a recent act of
Assembly. they are forbidden to mar
ket their own products without Ii
cense. This is absolutely false. There
never was law passed in this State re-
quiring farmers to pay license to sell
or peddle their own products. The law
permitting cities and boroughs to tax
transient merchants, peddlers and huck-
sters for the privilege of vending their
wares within their corporate limits, all
specifically except farmers or dairymen.
The law in question is purported to have
been passed In 1899, but there was no
legislation whatever on that subject

Coal Trade Items.

Coal Trade Journal
Soft coal keeps at good pace so far
as demand is concerned In all parts Of
the country, and people who can do so
will be wise in keeping supply on
hand, for there Is not the least likeli-
hood of demand falling off, and even II
prices do go below the fancy schedule
which some OF the operators who have
not season contracts are able TO obtain,
they are not going to any old time
figures, for mining and transportation
are going TO cost more than they did In
1899. Tn the first item IL Is expected
that advances will be: Ohio miners. an
increase Of 20 cents per ton; West vir-
ginia, Is cents; Illinois. Is cents; Penn
sylvania, average Is; Indiana, Is and
20 cents.
In Pennsylvania soft coal trade the
state OF the weather has no effect; the
demand is rs urgent rs ever and prices
remain the same. There appears to be
no accumulation of this coal, and con-
sumers are just rs urgent 10 get their
orders filed now as earlier in the
season. The open weather is allowing
little better movement Of the cars,
and that is really all that can be said as
to any change in the situation.
Through an agreement already ex-
listing between the Buffalo, Rochester
& Pittsburg, the New York Central and
the Reading, the first named receives a
tide outlet for the bituminous coal
originating on its lines. and this traffic
bids fair to be very largely augmented
In the near future.
