The Camp of Woodmen of the
World of this city has con tracted with
Mr.. J. III. Langdon TO erect a monu-
ment in Greenwood cemetery to the
memory of Arthur /. Barrett, deceas-
ed, who was a beneficiary member Of
the order. This order obligates its
members to pay this last tribute Of
respect to a deceased brother. This
is comparatively new organization,
having sprung into existence but a
few years ago, but its growth has been
very rapid and it now numbers sever
al hundred thousand mem bers in the
United States. The local branch
was organized in this city two years
ago with Ferris NJ. White at its head
We congratulate Mr. Langdon upon
his success in securing this contract.
The monument will be an important
addition TO the many beautiful mon
uments which he has erected In
Greenwood cemetery.

The Prisoners Struck.

All of the prisoners in the Paterson,
New Jersey jail struck last week.
They said that they would no longer
conduct themselves as model prisoners
unless their demands were granted,
and they threatened to shout and
scream all night, sulk and do other
things TO make life burden for their
keepers.
Water coolers we'll supplied with ice
are asked for in long petition. All
the prisoners, men and women, signed
their names. A supplementary petit
tion was added; to which all names
were signed also. 1t complained about
Wardens Vreeland and Berry, veterans
the civil war, and says:
I'VE, the undersigned, do most res
pectfully protest against the loud ar
guments waged in evening discussions
in the Jail. Sleep is disturbed and the
argument over the late war is neither
instructive nor interesting. Our com
plants have been ignored, and we
respectfully petition that our rest and
peaceful quiet may be restored. 1t
seems necessary that this appeal shall
be placed in your hands, so that there
may be an amendment of existing cor
ditions and an opportunity to sleep in
peace.

Ewes Apple.

A fruit supposed to bear the marx
of Ewes teeth is one of the many bo
tanlcal curiosities of Ceylon. The tree
on which it grows is known by the
significant name of 1.-The forbidden
fruit" or Ewes apple tree ~ The
blossom has a very pleasant scent. but
the really remarkable feature of the
tree, the one to which it owes it's name,
is the fruit It is beautiful and hangs
from the tree in a peculiar manner.
Orange on the outside and deep GRIM
son within, each fruit has the appear
ance of having had piece bitten out
of it. This fact, together with its
poisonous quality, led the Mohamme-
dams to represent it as the forbidden
fruit of the Garden of Eden and to
warn men against its noxious prop
critics. The mark upon the fruit is at
tributed to Eve. Why the bite of
Adam did not also leave its mark is
not known, but as only one piece seems
to be missing its loss Is ascribed to the
woman.

A consular report states that 400
fresh hen eggs were recently IN Ger

time it was found that the eggs which
had been put into salt brine were all
spoiled; that those which had been
wrapped in paper were SO per cent
bad, and that like percentage of those
which had been immersed in mixture
of glycerin and salicylic acid were un
fit for use. Of the eggs which had been
rubbed with salt, or imbedded in bran

were spoiled: of those subjected to a
coat of liquid glass, collodion or var

had been placed in wood ashes OF had
been painted with mixture of liquid
glass and boracid acid. Or solution OF

A SMART SWINDLER::
Apple-Eating Stranger Who Does SIeiqht
0f-Hand with Diamonds.

| Men who are more than six feet tai
ana who eat apples are regarded with
olstrust in every jewelry store in Chi.
cag0. The reason for this is a theft
that occurred recently in one of the
most prominent stores. The work was
neatly done, and the combination of a
tall man, eating an apple, makes every
clerk and floor detective suspicious.
A distinguished looking stranger
with white hair and white beard stroll
ed into State street store and asked to
see some diamond rings. The clerk
reached for them, leaving one tray
filled with expensive rings on top of
the show CASE
Here they are" he said, placing the
second tray beside the first. As he did
so the tall man, who had been manch-
lng.at fine russell apple, throw the
core into the street.
He and the clerk went over the rings
in the trays, but he could find none that
he wanted to buy. AS he turned to 90
the clerk discovered that ring worth
$3.50 was missing. The clerk disliked
to accuse the distinguished looking
stranger of having stolen the ring.
There was prospect for a suit for dam
ages against his employer and his own
discharge if the accusation should he
found groundless. Still, if be let the
man get away with the ring it would
mean that he would have to pay for it. |
Torn between these positions, the clerk
finally limited that the customer must |
have seen the ring.
"Of course l saw it. I had it in nv
hand only a moment ago. All, catch |
your meaning. You want to infer that |
-. Be careful, sir; you do not |

Why a Preacher Uec,Ined a Call.

The Rev. NJ Chumbley, pastor Of the
Samuel Davis Presbyterian Church,
in Hanover, has declined call under
unusual circumstances. When Mr..
Chumbley left home two weeks ago he
expected to visit Williamson, w. Va.
to investigate the work to which he
had been called by the evangelistic
committee of the Synod of Virginia,
but was unable to do so on account of
the washouts along the lines of the
Norfolk and Western Railroad in the
Eastern Valley. Not being able to
reach the field, Mr.. Chumbley accept
ed this as an Intervention of Provi-
dence and declined the call.

tion of scientific aid may be secured
is simple enough. There is no require.
ment as to age, except that the appli'
must be at least 20 years old; it does
not matter how long ago he or she
was graduated from an agricultural
college. No examination is required
but the applicant must send to the
Civil Service Commission, Washing
ton, D. G., sworn statement as to
the length of time spent in college, the
studies pursued, the special work, it is
desired to take up and the qualifica-
tions for such work, and, finally, a
written essay upon some scientific
topic. In lieu of the last requirement,
articles on scientific subjects, printed
over the applicants own signature,
may be submitted. The college course,
with degrees, counts so per cent.
special qualifications 25 per cent, and
the essay or other literature 25 per
cent.
It is understood that an applicant,
on being appointed as a scientific aid,
shall pursue some special branch of
scientific research, toward which his
tastes incline him. At the end of two
years, he, or she, will have to pass an
examination, and, having got through
it satisfactorily (of course it will be
fairly rigid), will be promoted to a
service. Thenceforth the

House S0uld Take the Initiative.

If, observes the Boston Herald, 1T
has been SO arranged that the reci-
pOcity treaties relating to the tariff
cannot be passed in the Senate, it
strikes us that the movement for low
er duties which Congressman Babcock
has started should receive a new i'm
pulse IN the National House of Repre-
Setatives. 1t was much like stigma
upon the House for the Senate to ap-
propriate to itself this legislation, the
initiative in which belongs to the
House under the Constitution, and if
the Senate does this only to prevent
action upon the subject the case is
made worse.
The whole country, as far as the
Democratic portion of it is concerned,
says that revision of the tariff in the
line of mod GRAFTON is needed. and a
large portion of the Republicans of
the west have joined with them, while
presumably there are not few Repub-
licrns of the east, manufacturers in
cluded, who are of the same opinion.
1T is in the province of the Nation
al House OF Representative to furnish
this. If the Senate takes such legis-
lation away from the House only to
prevent it's adoption it looks very much
as if the former body was adding in
jury to insult.

A lazy liver may be only tired liver.
or starved liver A stick is all right
for the back OF a lazy man. But it
would be savage as We'll as a stupid
thing to beat a weary man or a starV-
ing man because he Jagged in his
work. So in treating the tagging liv-
er it is great mistake to lash it with
drastic drugs. In ninety-nine cases
out of a hundred a torpid or sluggish
liver is but a symptom of an i'll nour-
ished body, whose organs are weary
with overwork. Let your liver alone.
Start with the stomach and it's allied
organs of digestion and nutrition. Put
them in proper working order, and see
how quickly your liver will become
active and energetic. DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery has made
many marvellous cures of liver trou-
bles by its wonderful control of the
organs of digestion and nutrition. 1t
restores the normal activity of the
stomach, increases the secretions of the
blood making glands, cleanses the sys-
tenn from poisonous accumulations,
and so relieves the liver of the burdens
imposed upon it by the detection of
other organs.
