hs Pain Maa urts.

Vii par, { ne human body is The
rfI.'s. sensible 10 pin,
A sharp definition must he drawn here
between irritation an p,ia. Irritation is
not pain, but only ieIu q cause Of it.
Thus, crumb lodged ia he larynx near
the vocal cords produces violent irritation
and prolonged coughing. which often re-
suits in actual pain. SO, TOO, fly or
speck of dust in the eye sets up violent ir-
ritation and inflammation, followed by
acute pain. Of the surface of the body,
the finger tips and the end of the tongue
are most sensitive For instance, burn
on the fingers is much more painful than
one on the back would be, while one on
the tongue would be more painful still.
Deep wounds are not painful, as rule,
save as regards the surface injury. Of
pains not caused by external injuries,
neuralgia Of the 6fth nerve, the one which
supplies the skin of the head and face, is
the most intense. 1t has frequently driven
people mad for the time being, and suffer
ers have been known to cut and even burn
the flesh in desperate attempts to relieve
it. The rupture of the branches of the
dental nerve in tooth drawing also causes
agony so intense that it has been stated
that no human being could endure it for
more than two seconds at a time.

Care OF the Feet.

We may congratulate ourselves that
~ ire and more, as tine goes on, custom
aud fashion move together in the direction
of the proper care of the feet. says the
Youths Companion, In shoes the ex-
tremely narrow pointed toe is for the mo-
ment tabooed as vulgar. But fashion,
alasl only repents of her sins to commit
the same over again, and the pointed toes
will probably be forced upon us again long
before the feet crippled by the last batch
can be cured. In the meantime, while
common sense and fashion 80 hand in band,
we must make the best of our day of op-
portunity.
Many insults are offered to these faith
ful, hard working servants, the feet, be-
sides confinement in narrow, cramped and
ill-ftting shoes. We talk learnedly of the
necessity for ventilation, and then expect
them to bear up the weight of our bodies
all day long without grumbe and with
out breath of air. Or we take pains to
have our shoes long enough, and then put
on socks or stockings half an inch too short,
and wonder where the corns come from.
Almost as necessary as the proper cloth
ing of the feet is the proper toilet At
least morning and night they should be
bathed and then manipulated to keep them
smooth and supple. Stockings should be
changed very frequently, because the feet
owing to their constant confinement and the
hard work they are called upon to do, are
always perspiring. The same pair of shoes
should not be worn two days in succession.
1t is an easy matter to have two pairs in
use on alternate days, and is excellent
economy besides, as it gives the shoes a
chance to become perfectly dry and, con-
seqaently, they keep in better shape and
last longer.

MIGRANTS SENT UP
 FOR TWENTY DAYS
Bunch Arrested on the "Bowery" Get Dose From Judge
 Feagin.

Yesterday afternoon the crippled. tho blind, lame, halt and maimed brigade slowly wended its way from the doll house" to the southside jail to serve out their twenty days fine for being vagrants.
 The procession was composed of those caught by the police in the raids on the "bowery" Tuesday afternoon and night and yesterday when they faced Judge Feagin he was kind enough to allow them to work twenty days for the city.
 It was a sad bunch. One man claims to be without the power of speech and una ble to hear it thunder. Another has a leg missing. There is also one who is 2 wire worker, but who rides the box car ''empties' when out of work. Others had game" arms and some were sick from taking patent medicine.
 Their names are Frank Wright, Robert Cassidy, James J. Rider, Thomas Car penter, James Howard, Geogie Fueguson, H. T. Austin, Thomas Burns and John Davis.

RECEIVER FOR
 COAL COMPANY
ALDERMAN WALTER MOORE IS NAMED TO TAKE CHARGE OF THE AFFAIRS OF THE DIAMOND COAL AND COKE COMPANY.

Alderman Walter Moore was yesterday appointed receiver of the Diamond Coal and Coke Company by Chancellor John c. Carmichael on a petition filed by the Maddox Rucker Banking Company of At lanta. He is ordered to take posses sion of all the assets of the defendant and to file an inventory of them in court. His bond was fixed at 5000.
 The petitioners claim that the defendant is indebted to them in. the m of $23JJ for money loaned it. They allege that the company has ceased to mine coal and is in bad way generally. iI. rso,
 The bill sets out that the Diamond Coal and Coke Company is an Alabama corporation but that all the officers of the company reside in Atlanta. That the mine which they have been operating is located at Clements, but that the en- tire assets of the company consist of personal property and leasehold inter- est in said mine.
 That the company has stopped mining coal and is unable to meet it's last pay roll and that the miners have quit on this account and left its employment. That in order to pay off the miners as far as the defendant was able 1t emptied and stripped its commissary even including the shelving and fixtures and that "in like manner it has disposed of its three mules."
 It Is alleged that the mine is filling with water and that the only thing the company is pretending to do is to en- deavor to keep the water pumped out through the efforts of one employe. It is also alleged that the company owes various merchants around Birmingham, has no funds to resume work and Is about to forfeit it's lease which is worth enough to pay its debts The bill then asks for a receiver and an accounting.

BODY FOUND IN WATER.
Negro Miner Meets Death In a Mys-
 terious Way.

The body of a negro man, who has not yet been identified, was found in Black creek yesterday morning by Jim Candrell, who called his father, and together they raised it from the water sufficiently to see whether the man was white or black
 Coroner Paris was notified, and will hold an autopsy this morning over the body in Sam Foley's undertaking estab- lishment in Pratt City. Yesterday after noon the body was examined as far as possible, but no signs of violence were discovered. It is not thought the man was killed by drowning, as there was no water in his lungs.
 The negro Is supposed to have gotten into the creek in some way Monday, as Tuesday morning early his clothes were seen on the bank by a, number of boys. The negro is supposed to be a miner, as his hat shows he has been near iron ore. He is supposed to be laborer from the neighborhood of the Warner mines. The body was found just back of Shaft No. 1 and about half mile from San- dusky.
