An American GentIeman's Expe-
rience In Entertaining the
WeII-KnOun "Master."

One enthusiastic Ibsenite, while still
rabid, will content himself in future
with admiring the master" through
his works, writes Henry Dick, in New
Lippincott. Officially called upon to
reside in Norway for a season. he, after
meeting the playwright on several oc-
casions, invited him to pay him visit.
He found Ibsen a most difficult guest.
He was extremely sensitive and senti-
mental and his feelings were con-
stantly being hurt. The morning after
his arrival the guest did not appear at
breakfast. Instead message arrived
that he wished to see the eldest son of
the house. AS the eldest son was not
present, the puzzled host went to see
what the difficulty might be. 1t

MONGOOSE AND SNAKEBITE.
Blood of the Animal Contains an An-
titoxin Which Is Destructive
to the Poison.

There is probably no casualty more
appalling than snakebite, by reason of
the usually fatal result which follows
the injury when the snake is of high
ly venomous species, says the Lonron
Chronicle. Even a minute quantity of
the virus injected into the blood will
prove death dealing within a very
short period Of time. Remedies for
snakebite have hitherto been limited
to attempts made to prevent the
spread of the poison through the sys-
tenn and to the terrifying of the pa
tient against collapse. But till within
very recent times nothing in the way
of antidote or specific cure for snake
bite was known. True, there have been
"snake stones"-still used in the east

AT the headquarters of the school
the teacher speaks the lesson into
the funnel of the machine. These
records are then mailed to the stu

and several blank records.
In his own home the student sets
the monograph going and listens
while it repeats as pure German,
Italian or French as the teacher
knows how to speak. Having learned
the lesson he repeats it to the talk
ing machine and sends the record
back to the school, where the teach

binary breakfast time. 1t was a won
derful surprise for us, and would have
been the end of that army, for the
time being, but for the work of our
signal corps. Sheridan was full of
confidence. He had gone to Washing
ton, supposing that his work had been
practically completed by the victory
at Winchester and Fishers Hill, in
September. But our signal corps men,
on October II, had taken from the
confederate signal lights the message

Moonlight and Complexion.

Doctors have provided the women
with another source of worry. A
physician claims to have discovered
that the sun in all his glory is not as
fatal to complexion as bright moon
light. AS might have been expected,
it was a Frenchman who made the
discovery. Hardly had he announced
it before shopkeepers had on exhibit

Flowing of Metals.

1t is, perhaps, not generally known
that one of the most important prop
critics of metals employed in striking
coins and medals, and stamping and
shaping articles of jewelry, is that of
flowing under pressure. Standard sill
yer is remarkable for this property,
which precisely resembles the flowing
of viscous fluid. The flow takes place
when the metal is subjected to rolling,
stamping or hammering, and the par
ticles of the metal are thus carried
into the sunken parts of the die with
out fracturing, and perfect impress
sion is produced.

A very unfortunate occurrence took place on Saturday evening in the Head block, in which A. J. Head was as- saulted by Dr. Scarborough and Charles Reed. The weapons used were six shooter and club, and Mir. Head was struck on the head three or four times with them. The trouble grew out of a disagreement about rent. Scarborough and Reed were both arrested and gave bonds for their appearance. Mr.. Head has been confined to his bed on account of the injuries. Reed is a comparative stranger in Prescott and has been in the employ of Dr. Scarborough for some time. The examination of the defendants was held today before Judge Moore, who placed each under bond of $2,5OO to appear before the next grand jury. The sum was diately fur nished and they were released.-Jour- nal Miner.
