Consul Mckinley reports to the State
Department from Athens: THE Greek
health authorities require that all
trunks, packages, etc, the personal
baggage of travellers, when unaccom-
panied by their owners, must. on ar
rival at any port in Greece, be accom-
panied by certificate of origin or Il
certificate from the health authorities
of the port from which the baggage
was shipped to Greece. AS ignorance
OF the foregoing rule has caused many
American travellers delay and trouble
in regaining possession of such bag
gage, and as thousands of Americans
annually visit Athens and others parts
of Greece, this information should be
published widely in order that they
may come prepared with the necessary
certificates to release their baggage
without delay-The Express Gazette.

astronomers scrutinize newly dis
covered star. A sign for his presence
is passed along. as it is useless to at
tempt speech. for the little fellows
could shout themselves hoarse and
not be heard more than a few feet
away. Consequently all the boys have
the gesture language. To ask a fell
low-worker the time one boy will hold
up his hand and quickly open and
close his fist number of times. This
will bring an answer from another
one, who stops work just long enough
to make a few motions with his fing-
ers, designating the hour and the min
ues before or after. They also employ
signal when an exchange Of posi-

monotony of the toll, the aching backs
bent over the troughs, and the never
ending roar of coal and machinery
become monotonous. a rapid beating
with the hand upon the breast will
draw the attention of fellow-worker,
and the two will make mutual and
hurried trade of positions. The signal
for drink of water is a twist of the
wrist around in front of the mouth
and there are many others. The little
fellows, comical in all their ways,
make use of various signs, gestures,
and furtive glances when the boss,
the foreman or the mine superintend-
ent approaches.

Meaning of instantaneous Death"

"The instant of DEATH" says the
Indian Lancet, sis vague and indef-
mite expression when viewed from the
point of physiology. An animal or
plant cannot be considered dead until
it has reached that period in disinteg-
ration where it is impossible to re-
vive life. Some psychologists still fur
thor restrict the definition to that point
in decay where every cell in the body
OF an animal or plant las ceased to
contain or consist of living protoplasm
in other words, each cell must have
lost beyond recall it's life r3wers Prob
ably one of the most striking examples
of instantaneous death was that of the
person who accidentally fell into
large vat of boiling caustic potash,
which at once consumed the entire body,
leaving only the metallic plates from
the heals of his shoes and a few but
tons from the clothing as remains.
Death from electric shocks also border
on the instantaneous process. 1t has
been found that living cells taken from
the body can be preserved in nor
NAL state for long time and then
have life processes revived Il they are
properly treated.

Continued satisfactory results are re-
ported of the operation of the indeter-
inmate sentence and the parole law in
Indiana, even exceeding the hopes of
those who were favorable to the law.
Much of the improvement in the penal
institutions due to the new laws can
not be told, but the tangible results
shown in figures are very encouraging.
From the reformatory 71S men have
been paroled since April, 1897, and un-
satisfactory results are reported in
only eighteen per cent. of the cases.
Better figures even are given by the
State prison, which reports that of the
$50 men paroled only twenty three, or
nine per cent, have violated the par
ole. The wages earned by the paroled
men, including the board furnished
them, aggregate S1T0,15G, practically
all of which would have been lost to
the men and their families under the
old system.

A PSYCHIC PHENOMENON,
In This Case No Heed Was Paid to ths
Warnings.


Speaking of superstitions and
strange warnings that come to
people, said a veteran Washington
correspondent. 81 had an experience
once that | hardly know how to ac-
count FOR. | may say in advance that
don't believe in any of the business
that cannot be demonstrated scienti.
1lcally. One day, not a great while
after the present elevator to the house
press gallery had been put in. my
motLer sent for me to stop at her
house on my way down town, as she
had something particular to see me
about. | went, and she asked me if
there wasn't new elevator to the
press gallery. l told her one had
been put in three or four months be-
fore that. She said that was it. and
that l must not ride in it. for she
had dreamed the night before that !
had been crushed to death in it.
laughed at her. of course. and went
on my way. Down on f street l met
an aunt who told me she had some
thing odd to tell me. She said she
had been the day before. with niece
of her husband, to see a fortune tell
er, as the niece had taken a fancy to
see one of those fakirs. The fortune
teller, however. instead of telling the
niece anything. had directed her re-
marks to her (my aunt and had told
her that she had a relative. young
man, whom she should warn. as he
would be crushed to death in an ele-
vator. That was rather a jar to me,
as l was her only young man relative,
and as l had SO shortly before been
warned by my mother. However.
laughed at her also and went on my
way to the Capitol.
Il went about the committee rooms
awhile, and at last. quite forgetful
of my late warnings, went to the ele-
vator to go up to the gallery. The
elevator man, an old fellow whom
had known for some time. was in the
cage when l got there. and before
opening it he talked to me through
the bars.
II don't know said he. whether
! ought to let you come in here or
not
Why not?' inquired. laughing.
Because said he. as serious as
could be, L dreamed last night that |
had run the elevator up too high and
that as you started to get in you
slipped some way under it. and when
I got down to you at the bottom of the
shaft you were smashed to death
This looked like the fatal three
warnings and l confess I had few
doubts myself. but l had some nerve
left, and l iollied him on his notion
and got in. On my way up l told
him what my mother and my aunt
had told me. and the old fellow was
so scared that he hardly knew what to
do, but | got through all right, and
up to date | have not been crushed in
that elevator or any other. but. of
course, that's no sign I won't be. and
If | ever am the cranks will be sure
to hold me up as frightful exam
pie. l suppose there are some people
who wouldn't ride in that elevator for
all kinds of money, and still they
may fall down stairs at any moment
and break their necks. s."-Washington

MONEY FOR MILITIA
S5o.9so of Congressional Appro-
priation Allotted to Illinois
by War Department.
GUARD Is TO BE REoRGANIzED
One Proposition is to Establish a
National Military Re.
serve.

Illinois was allotted $50, $50 yester-
day for maintaining its militia. This
allotment was made by the secretary
of war out OF the 1000 900 appro-
priated by congress at its last ses-
sion for this purpose. 1t is practi-
cally double the amount that was
given the state last year and. in fact.
nearly every state will receive twice
as much money this year for the pur-
pose of maintaining its militia organ
ization than it did last year.
Only two other states in the union
New York, which is given SO 40.
and Pennsylvania, which will get
$67, 973-receive q larger amount
than Illinois. To Representative
Marsh, of Illinois, more than to any
other person belongs the credit for
increasing the standing appropria-
ton for the use of the citizen SOL
diery.
1t will be remembered that Col.
Marsh, who was chairman of the
house militia committee, made a
strong effort to have the amount in
creased to 81, 900, 900. but inasmuch
as the appropriations made by the last
congress were so large, Speaker Hen
derson and some of the other leaders
were opposed to making the amount
81, 600, 900, and Marsh and his asso-
ciates on the com mittee were forced
to be satisfied with an appropriation
of 81, 900 600.
Radical Change Contemplated.
NE hn v.sF anf fav
the National Guard next year contem-
plate a radical measure. Assistant
Secretary Sanger. who has had charge
of the reestablishing of the National
Guard on lines which will make it of
use in time of war. has about aband-
oned the idea that he can do any thing
with the guard as it stands at pres
emit. Secretary Root will make some
important suggestions in his annual
report, and is quite likely to adopt
the plan which Mr.. Sanger at present
is understood to favor.
One proposition is to establish ma
tional military reserve which will be
entirely distinct from the state mill
tia and whica shall have the encour-
agement and assistance of the war de-
partment. 1t has even been suggest
ed that the reserve be made up of a
regiment from each congressional dis
trict, making q large army in itself
and one likely to be Of great service
to the government when it becomes
necessary to augment the regular mil
itary force of the country.
1t is doubtful, of course, If the re-
serve force would be of such great
numerical strength as is represented
by regiment in every congressional
district, but there is no doubt that
several regiments of reserves could
be formed in each of the larger states.
Army officers would be detailed as in
spectors and lecturers, while non,
com missioned officers-two, perhaps,
for each regiment-would act as drill
masters. Such an organization of
national character under the control
of the governmental authorities would
lend itself easily to the plan of mill
tary education which Secretary Root
has in contemplation in the school he
proposes to establish at Fort Leaven-
