Forget Ills Native TonEae4

Andrew Lawson, q Norwegian cooper was struck on the head by falling block while at work on one of the piers of the Atlantic Transport company, New York city, on Sept 5, 1898. Hs lay like one dead in St. Vincent's hos pital for two months. His life was desI wired of, but finally he rallied and regained part of his lost strength Lawson Is in normal condition in every sense, with the exception that he has forgotten all about his former life and companions. and has nc remem- brance of his native tongue. Try as he will he cannot converse in the lan- guage that he learned in Norway. His wife is instrucing him as she does their four-year-old boy. Lawson speaks tho English language only imperfectiy. The ease has attracted the attention os scientists and specialists

FAMOUS CONVICT SHIP
.The Chamber of Horrors'' Which waa
 Knife a Hundred Yeara Ago.

Built a Hundred Years Ago.
 One of the curiosities in England at present is the old convict ship Success, which has recently been converted into a museum, or into what foreign jour- nalist style "a chamber of horrors" She was, built no years ago, and her first years were spent iI cruising be- tween the East Indies and England. Ill 1929 the British admiralty bought and stationed her In the waters of westerg Australia. Capt. Stirling was then in command, and from his Scottish birth place She town of Perth in Australia takes it's Same. From 1847 to 1851 the Success piled between London and East Adelaide. On her last trip she had on board several hundred imm1- grants who intended to seek tneir for tunes in the newly discovered gold fields. During the voyage the captain, the other officers, and the entire crew became seized with the same gold fever and the result was that when land was reached they, too, left the ship and went off to seek their fortunes. The Success was next used to transport criminals of the deepest dye to Var Diemen's Land, as Tasmania was then called, and she also served as floating prison for especially dangerous crim- inals. The vessel then became popu- iarly know mas "The Hell of the Ocean" title which was evidently well deserved. Old records show that some awful scenes took place on her. The prisoners cells were in two tiers under the deck, and were so small that inmates could hardly move in them. Moreover, they were so fashioned that they could be made light or dark, and she most insubordinate prisoners were always placed in the latter These curious cells, many of the old instru- ments of torture and number of wax figures representing famous criminals are now being exhibited on the Sue- cess, and are attracting a crowd of sightseers. The old ship is at present in Leith Harter, in Scotland. New York Herald.

WHY WOMEN WORRY MOST.
Have More Leisure Time Than Men ana
 Naturally Think Over Things.


 From time immemoria1 women have been told-by women. as well as men, though naturally more often by the latter-that worry digs wrinkles in their faces and sprinkles gray among their tresses. These warnings do lit tie good. The fair creatures go on worrying and will probably continue to do so until the millennium comes. Why this Is so is answered in this way The question of worry with women seems to be simply this: Wom. en are so hedged about by the little ness of their protected lives-for it is the protected woman who does the most worrying-that 1t is hard to see beyond and above sometimes, and mat ters in this way get wholly out of fo- GUS. If women had the capacity with men oI getting up ana doing battle with things, worry would slip off their shoulders as easily as from off those of the average masculine. Man doesn't worry about debt, because he feels that he has it within him (since money making is his business) to make suff1- cient money to pay his debts-some time. Women look al 1t more prae- tically, and consider the now. Man doesn't generally worry about his health, because he really has not the time. Let him become i'll, though, and have to stop his work, and how Is 1t with him? Man doesn't worry about the future-he is so madly interested in the present; nor about his clothes. for the tailor stands between him and that; nor about home matters-they from his point of view, are too trivia, until he comes home to badly cook ed dinner, and then in his broad out look there is no excuse for this state of things, for in business, if an em- ploye does not do his work properly, his employer gets some one who can, a method that will yet come to be powerful lever in the leveling of wom sn's worries.

This Is the Age of Cement.

Gen. ]. s. Clarkson, formerly Of iowa, but now president of the New York and New Jersey Bridge com~ pany, and also of the Monolith I'm. proyement company, who was at the Auditorium In Chicago, recently said: "The stone age is passing and the age of cement Is upon us. American cities are in the rough, and they must in the sext few years be completed so that they will be safe and sanitary. The work of development will be done in great part with Portland cement. That will be the material for bridge piers, for foundations of buildings, for con- duits, and fo- the tunnels in which underground transportation win in time be pJaced."

quit work and thus bring the matter TO speedy
adjustment and settlement. A number OF
smaller collieries and washeries in various
places were closed to-day. The Potts colliery.

the Schuylkill coal regions who went out on
