NEW METHOD IN MUSIC.
anyone Can Learn to Play the Piano
by Following Series of Object Lessons
ia The Pittsbnrg sunday Dispatck.

BY the introduction of an entirely
new method In the instruction Of
music, The Pittsburg Sunday Dis
patch is giving its readers piano les
sons free each week. The idea is so
simple that anyone can learn to play
the piano. The method involved is
that OF kindergarten work-the OBJ
jeet lesson-and while this simplifles
the art OF music so that even children
can understand it thoroughly, yet
the system is worked out in such a
correct and scientific manner that the
most learned and experienced musi-
clans and teachers who have examined
this new system have endorsed it.
Even that eminent pianist, Joseph
Hoffman,, recommends it TO those
who desire TO get a fundamental
knowledge of music and theory. The
course will be twelve lessons, and
there is no expense attached TO the
study but a subscription to The Sun
day Dispatch for II weeks Order
at once. SO that none of the lessons
will be missed.

Movable Drop. In Diamonds.

1t has long been known that diu-
monds, especially the class known as
rose diamonds" are likely to explode
II subjected only to what would seem
very ordinary degree of heat, such as
strong rays from the sun, etc. 1t Is
now believed that the explosions are
the result of the rapid expansion of
certain volatile liquids inclosed in cuvi-
ties near the center OF these precious
stones. A great many diamonds, even
though cut, mounted and worn as gems
OF perfection. are still in an unfinished
condition that is the liquid drop from
which the stone is being formed has
not as yet deposited all of it's pure
crystals of carbon" These movable
drops may occasionally be seen with
the naked eye.
When this is the case, strong mi.

penter's level. 1t is also highly prob
able that besides the liquid mentioned
these cavities may contain gases under
great tension. This being the case,
one may READILY comprehend how a
very small amount of heat would
cause the liquid and gas to expand to
such IL degree that the diamond would
give way with all the characteristics

Wonderful fellow, that Her1ock
Solmes," remarked the captain. a few
evenings ago In the smokeroom. II
remember the occasion when was in
troduced to him. 1t was Mt crush at
the Van Astorbilts. There was an aw-
full crowd, and we were standing up
in corner talking, when all ut once I
missed my watch.
What's the matter?' inquired the
detective when he noticed that I was
upset. and told him.
Looking at the time, he observed.

or two around, Gentlemen, my friend
here has lost his watch, but fortunate

ugly looking foreigner, who colored up
under his dirt and tried to shuttle
away.

1t is not given to many men to be
hanged and buried and yet be able to
tell the tale. but such was the expert.
ence Of one John Bartcndale, who was
executed Mt York in 1884 for felony.
Alter his body had hung for nearly
an hour 1t was buried. A gentleman
passing by the grave, which had not
been filled up, thought he saw the
earth move, and with the help of his
servant he disinterred the convict, who
was still alive.
1t was the custom In those days to
bury suicides and executed criminals
without any coffin. The man was care
fully treated and entirely recovered.
He became hostler Mt the coaching
house IN York and lived most cx
emplary life. When asked what he
could tell In relation to hanging. as
having experienced 1t. he replied, THAT
when l was turned off flashes of fire
seemed to dart from my eyes, from
which fell into state Of darkness
and insensibility."

Not superstitious, But

"No, am not believer iii the SUPER

Nevertheless, she went on to tell how
some oriental parsonage she had met
had declared that IL you lost anything
1t is no good to look about for it, but to
visualize 1t. Last week this woman lost
valuable hatpin. She searched high
and low for it in vain. Then all of a
sudden she remembered the words Of
the native, and she sat down and closed
her eyes tightly and thought of moth
Ing but her loss. A few minutes pass
ed, and upon disk of darkness there
appeared the bright outline Of. n hat
pin seen through the folds of a blanket.
Immediately afterward my friend was

PURE SUNLIGHT AND AIR.
Here which shame the OLD
WOrld.a Favored (lfmes.


Worlds Favored Chimes.
We have often heard of "sunny Ita-
Is" W the Clear light" Of Egypt, says
the Desert; but. 'believc me, there is no
sunlight there compared with that
which falls upon the upper peaks of
the Sierra AIudrc or the unirhabitable
wastes of the Colorado desert.
Pure sunlight requires for its cx-
istcnce pure air. and the old world has
little of it left. When you are in
Rome again ami stand upon that hill
where all good Iaomanists go ut sum
set, look out and see how dense is the
atmosphere between you and ST Pc
ter's dome. That same thick air is all
over Europe, all around the Mcditer-
ranean, even over in Mesopotamia and
by the banks of the Ganges. 1t has
been breathed and burned and battla
smoked for 10000 years.
Ride UP and over the high tablelands
OF Montana-one cam still ride there
for days without seeing trace of hu-
manity-and how clear and sccntless,
how absolutely intangible. that sky
blown. sunshot atmosphere! You
breathe it without feeling it. you see
through it IL hundred miles. and the
picture is not blurred by 1t. Onco
more ride over the enchanted mesas Of
Arizona ut sunrise or sunset, with the
ragged mountains of Mexico to the
south of YOU and the broken spurs Of
the great Sierrn around about you. and
all the glory of the old shall be as
nothing to the gold and purple and
burning crimson OF this new world.
