Bremen Held Drill Meeting Even
 Though Weather Was Hot.
 The firemen held a drill meeting at their rooms last evening. which on account of the very hot weather, was not largely attended. Those who did attend, however. went through drill in an interesting manner. The hose cart was brought out and the hose attach ed to the hydrant in front of the town hall All previous records for drawing the cart to the hydrant and attaching the hose were broken. The hose was found to be in good condition. The fremen have received an invitation to several places to parade in uniform, but the company has not decided which one to accept. The drill alarm, which was sounded, deceived many people who not having become used to the alarm, thought that there was a fire in town.

Mngnetrc Persons.

Prof. Murani, distinguished Ital- ian scientist, says that certain per- sons possess 8 strange magnetic or electric influence which produces very curious results. A few days ago while he was at work on some cleo trical experiment., one of his friends suddenly entered the room, and at the same moment the needle of his galvanometer moved to and fro very rapidly. He was sure that his friend had in one of his pockets either a magnet or some other electrical in strument, and in order to convince him that he was mistaken his friend removed all his clothes. To the pro- fessor's surprise the galvonometer continued to act just as though a powerful magnet was near it, an6 the closer his friend approached the more marked it's action became. Moreover, the front of the body act ed on it in the same manner as the positive pole of magnet and the back as negative pole.-N- Y. Her ald

CHARACTER IN CATS.
Raimter Who Has Put Them Upon Can
 vms Says They Are Not GeR- s4s orally Understood. ,esr@-.~, Tzs

In speaking of the putting of cakS on canvas, a painter of them, reports the New York Tribune, recently said s"They are without doubt one of the most difficult creatures to paint any lamentably few artists make a success of their portFaiture. They are afmos5 impossible to keep que4, and the par ticular fluffy Hcattiness' of their coats is far from easy to depict in pigments. The famous cat painters are few, ans when choice or chance discovers on he, or more often she, finds the gift 8 mine of wealth.
 f'In David Brooke's weI1-known pic. ture of the darky preacher at dinner in the Corcoran art gallery in Wash ington, the cat in the eforegrounubcouE be induced to sit still only by having her feet glued to the floor. But satis- factory results as to the expression in which cats face can be pa rticu1ar ly eloquent, are not to be secured i, this way Those who have had reaso1 to know say that even the fur of fe- lines in dicative of several things. b health and contentment it stands ou fluffy from their bodies, while in feaa or displeasure it lies fat and lankly to the skin. .".
 'fNot long since a pissture was pI aced on exhibition of cat tapping milk, with it's tail held high. Though the technique was good and the fur really furry the value of the whole was practically nil, because no cat has ever been known to eat with it's tail in tn e air. With waving tails they do, in deed, rush toward the food, but with the first lap or bite down goes thG caudaI appendage, lower and lower, until with full stomach it sweeps the ground In the case of young kittens it is often different, however. They scramble into dish of milk with their pointed, rat-like tails at right angles to their roly-poly bodies and some times forget to take down this sign of animation and alertness. Anyone who knows cats knows that the tail at every angle and with every move ment is expressive of some definite emotion"

THREE ANTLERs 1NTERLocKED
Only Set of the Kind in the World Owned by Indian of Flam-
 beau, Wisconsin.

An Indian from the Flambeau reser- gation in northern Wisconsin recently came into the fishing resort of Squaw lake with curiosity in the way of deer horns he wished to sell. Failing to make sale he took the horns back to the reservation and has not been seen by white men since then, says a report to the New York Sun.
 His treasure was three sets of am uers inexpIicabty interlocked, and they were worth considerable money to horn collectors TEo-sets of: and CTS so locked are rare, but not unknown. 1t Is believed that the F9aanbeau Chip pewa, has the only se& of thres-locked antlers in the world.
 This accident could have happened only in one way. Two bucks of equal Sfr ength were fighting in the forest and became locked Then, while they were still struggling, third buck ap- peared in the usual angry temper of these animals in the mating season and charged them both, probably repeated 1y, until his own horns became fast ened. The spectacle of three huge bucks mated to each other until death would have been great one if there had been anybody there to see.
 The Indian said he found the horns north of F9ambeau lake, about mile from the water. They were lying on the side of hill, and there were no bones near them. The condition of the horns proved that the fight oc. cured not more than two year ago and probably last fall
 The antlers were all of fu1I-grown bucks, showing eight and ten points each. The third pair had been driven into the others inst above where they joined, and the branch of them were about equally locked with the branch es of the others.
 They were not broken or clipped ir any way, proving that when the third 2 buck had made his last charge he was fastened so firmly that there was nc room for any one of his points to play In the forks of the others Indeed all of the horns were so stoutIy joined that they could not be moved at all being as rigid as if nodded in hat fash son from cast steel.

Itching Piles is one of the most persistent plaques that the world has ever known. Men and women old and young, rich and poor suffer alike, and for ages it was generally believed that there was no cure for the, exasperating malady. Now and then preparations have ap- peared that would relieve the itchiness temporarily, but that was all. There seemed to be absolutely no real cure.
 That is all changed now, however. Doan's Ointment will cure Piles, whether itch ing, protruding or bleeding. It is also a safe and absolutely sure cure for eczema and all other itching diseases of the skin. Doan's Ointment is a pleasant, harmless and abso- luteiy sure remedy for all itch ing diseases of the skin,

VISIT ToMBs OF ANCESTORS.
Ancient Religions Ceremonial An-
 nual1y Observed by the Chinese Court.

The Chinese court started recently for the western tombs of the royal house of China. There was an inn mense amount of ceremony observed in relation to the visit and no less than 400 railway cars were requisitioned to convey the royal pair, their courtiers and baggage on their journey.
 One afternoon representative ot the London Daily News waited upon an influential Chinaman resident in London to glean all the particulars possible in selation to the ceremony. ttIt is purely a religious ceremonial" J." remarked the official. ''There will be no junketing, no feasting. Everything will be carried out in She most solemn manner. One object of the visit to the tombsris to impress upon the minds of the visitors is that sooner or later all men, no matter how great their po- sition, must go to the grave. Another is that the dead may live in the memo ries of their descendants from genera tion to generation and their virtues be perpeuated. By such ceremonies the Chinese people believe that they offer an incentive to men to live good lives, so that their children and chil- dren's children may take a pride in their tombs
 "Tt is not" continued the Chinese gentleman, absolutely necessary that the emperor or empress should visit the tomb every year, but when the crowned heads cannot make the jour- ney they must send as their represents tive the next heir to the throne, the nearest of kin. Should they omit do- ing this the Chinese race would con sider that an unpardonabae insult had been offered to the ilfustrious dead, which would be productive of the gravest results, both politically and socially. The tomb which is the ob- jective of the present visit lies some considerable distance west of the city of Peking, and can now be reached or nearly reached by rail.
 "In days not so very remote the pill grimages were made either in carts or in palaquins, the common people going on foot During Ehe time the pilgrims were passing through any vil- lage or town all labor ceased until the cortege had got we'll upon it's way; even the laborers working in the fields stopped work as a sign of sympathy and respect for those who were show ing honor to their dead. In those times the Chinese royal pilgrimage was a most interesting andpicturesque function. Even now, when the west ern method of travel has robbed the journey of much of it's quaint cere- monial, it is an imposing sight, and one which Europeans are not well comed to witness"

WARM WEATHER DIET.
Very Little Meat Should Be Eatens and Heated Foods as Seldom
 as Possible.

As soon as the warm weather comes, change from the heavy, heating diet of winter to a simple, cooling diet. Eat less frequently or eat a smaller quan- tity than usual It would be we'll to or fruit and bread and butter. Eat very little meat. It is better, especial ly for people who lead a sedentary life, to eat no meat at all during the hot weather. In place of meat substitute beans, peas, ate. Baked potatoes, boiled rice, fresh vegetables, cooling salads and an abundance of fruits make an excellent summer dietary, says Med icaI Talk for the Home.
 The person who complains the most of heat is generally suffering from overstimnlation due to too much food or the wrong kind of food. Hot soups, steaming meats. maple sirup and flap jacks may be all right in cold weather, but should never be indulged in during the summer months. When too much food is taken it cannot be digested and it ferments in the stomach and intes- tines. The fermentation causes heat, discomfort and nervous irTitabflity. With mass of heated food within and heated atmosphere without, ex- treme discomfort is sure to follow.
 Hot weather is very trying ordeal and everything possible should be done to counteract the depressing effects of the heat. A sensible diet will do more towards alle~iating the distress of heat, perhaps, than any other one thing. Simple but nutritious foods tighten the work of digestion, while they are cooling and nourishing to the body.
 l As to drinks, next 10 pure water, 1en- onade or buttermiIk is the only sem sihle hot-weather drink. They are cooling and refreshing and really quench thirst, and buttermilk is very nutritious. Ice-cream sodas, phos- l plates and root beers, while cooling in their immediate effect, are really | worthless and result in further dis
 comfort and increased thirst.
 | Just a little common sense as to
 what one eats and drinks in hot wealth
 CT will do more toward keeping a per
 son cool and comfortable than all the
 electric fans and ice connections in ex- | LStence

In proof of it we tezlrwha4 those who have used it say.
 MT. Patrick Nolan, of No. Ic8 Railroad Avenue, Bridge port, Conn :, says: ssTo any one troubled with any form of ir- ritation of the skin, I can with confidence recommend Doan's Ointment I was for a long time bothered with persistent irritation on my body, and none of the many preparations and ointments I used did me any. good until I procured Doan's Ointment at a, Drug Store and applied 1t. It was so soothing and healing, and acted so promptly that felt relief from the first, and improved steadily. It is the best remedy for ir- ritation of the skin there is on the market. "
