seven years of age. weighing go pounds.
who. some months previous to an accident,
had suffered from apoplexy resulting In left
hemiplegia. He was slowly regaining the
use Of his arm and leg when he was struck
by train. and was found unconscious on
the track with three scalp wounds There
was depressed fracture of the skull three
inches above and one inch behind the left
ear. He was Immediately trephined and
the depressed bone removed.
About 10 o'clock at night he began to
whistle, not. however. the popular songs
or the day." but the whistle calls he was
accustomed to use in calling or driving his
nocks He would continue whistling for
ABOUT one minute. then would cease for five
or ten minutes, and kept this I'D at regular
intervals until he died, January 8, 1899, at
1890 d m. At no time was it possible to
distinguish any melody. The sounds were
OF the same pitch and intensity and Of the
same character. They were audible through
out the ward. and attracted the attention
of patients and attendants. To the physi-
clans in attendance 1t was strange ex-
perience to hear these whistle calls coming
from patient in state of unconscious
ness. Ii was impossible to rouse the pa
tient at any time before. or after the acct
dent, and he died, whistling a few minutes
before death.

Princess With an Odd Hobby.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean

Princess Victoria of England, the unmar-
ried daughter of Edward VII, has the most
curious hobby of any in a family that has
several unusual fads. She is deeply inter-
ested In bookbinding.
How she happened to choose that partic-
ular nobby nobody seems to know. but for
several years she has devoted a great deal
OF time to learning how to be an expert
bookbinder, and at last has become one.
A few months ago several book covers
sent to an exhibition in the name of Miss
Matthews" were favorably noticed by the
judges and received several prizes. Nobody
knew who the exhibitor was until the
prizes We're awarded. Then 1t was discoy-
cred that it was the Princess Victoria.
The princess takes her hobbies very seri-
ously. Following the lead of her mother
Queen Alexandria, who is deeply interested
In medicine and hospital work, Princess
Victoria began to study nursing some years
ago. She took an examination in theoret-
icai work and when she passed announced
her intention of becoming a hospital nurse
1t was current gossip in London at the
time that the Prince and Princess of Wales
had great difficulty In convincing her that
II wouldn't be wise for her to do So and
that Victoria submitted only after many
tears.

WITHDREW HIS OBJECTION.
postmaster mt Delight. Wash. yyop
over by the POstmRsfer General


The postmaster at Delight. Wash, has
consented that the office be made one az
which money orders may be issued. The
Post ofhce Department determined some
time ago that Delight should be made a
money order Office. The postmaster OBJ
'ected. and wrote to the Postmaster Gem
erai IN opposition to the plan. Again. he
was informed Of the determination of the
department. Postmaster General Smith to-
day received the following letter:
DELIGHT. Wash, March 30,
Postmaster General:
Sir: Yours OF 18th instant received and
contents noted. We think from the tone
of your kind letter you mistook our mean
explicit.
1--WE never intended to dictate to Won
how our post Office should be run. and II
you come to such conclusion you mistook
our meaning
1t Is your duty to give to the public in
our neighborhood the very best mail sery-
Ice possible. and IL you think IL would
answer that end by making il a money
order office we have no more 20 saw The
next thing would be for us to let some
body else have 1t IL it did not suit us
Until the last two or three years the only
pay there was in our post office was the
convenience there in IL for our COM
nluhlty. Our first quarter cancellations did
TOT quite amount to 81, and We never got a
red of that, as there was no instructions

ness to the United States, expecting when
ii was audited we would get our pay, but
never did This was during CleveIand's
flrst term. Then during his second term
IN making our quarterly report we over
looked $40 in stamps that We got from
the department. Have done that very
thing since and was allowed to make the
correction, that We took no credit for which
was held against us and persisted i'm to the
extent of pressing our sureties for paw
ment (of course, We would not let them
suffer-. We borrowed the money and paid,
but never knew why.
We'll, We did not start out to make a
political speech, but just wanted to show
you that We have not been sailing on
nowery beds Of ease since We opened our
little post office, but the prospect brightens.
AT the time referred to We were only ex-
perimenting with our country, did not know
then whether II would make an agricul-
tural one or not, but all doubts In that
direction have happily been dispelled.
which is evinced by the train loads of emf
grants that are almost daily coming to
our state and adjacent ones.
We'll, We are like the young preacher,
got clear away from the text. After we
had sent one letter to you and come to
think what We had written. that Delight
belonged to me, and that We had the right
to say whether II should be a money order
office or not, but your answer had none OF
the "B / and little u" about it. but was
tinged with kindness toward an old igno-
rant man.
Now 1t remains for you to say il De-
light is to be a money order Office, we have
no more to say. you are the boss.
Tell us what to do. and We will lay our
head on the block.

TAGS ON GOLDFISH.
The United States Fish Commission
Means of Identification.

From the Portsmouth lN H.) Journal
1t seems rather an odd idea to fasten
metal tags to marine fishes and then let
them loose in the ocean with the Idea OF
identifying them as individuals in case they
happen to be caught at a future time, but
this is what the United States fish COM
mission Is doing just now with cod, 1.5OO of
which have been duly tagged and released
this year. No two tags are alike, the
markings on them being stamped in a
series of letters and numbers. record Of
