WAKES, THEN DIES.
Woman Who Has slept Since May "a,
1883. Passes Away Near Saint
Quentin, France.

Marguerite Boyenval of Thenelles,
near Saint Quentin, France. who had
been in cataleptic state since May
81, 1888, was awakened the other day
and died the next morning. For
some time she HAS been suffering
from phthisis. and it is believed that
the effect of this malady on her sys-
tenn conduced to her reawakening.
She moved her hand six days be-
fore her death for the first time and
groaned slightly. When DR.. Charlier
took hold of her arm she said: you
are pinching me-" and subsequently
replied to questions by Eyes" and
"No." She was, however, in a state
of great weakness, and gradually
sank, finally dying.
Marguerite Boyenval's lethargy
was caused by fright. She had had
a child, which died shortly after its
birth under circumstances which led
to the opening of a judicial investi-
cation. One day in May, 1888. while
Marguerite was ironing. q nei-hbor
said to her: 1.-THE gendarmes are
coming to arrest you" Marguerite
had a series of fits'and gradually fell
into her long slumber.

COWBOYS CAPTURE RED DEER.
American Wssterners Find Them
Harder to Catch with LaSa0S
Than wild Horses.

Two of Buffalo Iill's cowboys, now
performing at the Olympia, London.
Tom Webb and 81 Compton, had what
they called the best days sport they
ever had in their lives on the grounds
of Loudwater house, the residence OF
Panmure Gordon, at Rickmansworth,
recently. They were invited to las
500 herd of red deer, and found
them trickier to capture than wild
horses, but after a determined con
test the cowboys were victors.
The chase ranged over a 12-acre
field. fringed with woods, cut OF
which the deer were driven by beat
ers, whose attempts at capture they
had hitherto defed. First came flne

eyed the cowboys with an air OF de-
fsnce and contempt. The COILS OF

AN AUTOMATON CAT.
The Brilliant Conception and Inven.
ton of an Englishman.
Constructs a Tabby which with Elec-'
tric EyebaIls, Explosive Mouth
and Pin-Covered Hide, Puts All
other Fclines to Flight.

A genius hailing from North London
has been struck with a brilliant con-
ception for Kidding back gardens and
clubhouse roofs of philanderirg cats.
1t consists of nothing less than the
invention of a fearsome aut omation
tonlcat made up of tin frame and
covered with afur coat.
.Tom" is as black as the darkest
night, with stiff. black tail standing
up detiantly in the air, and ghostly
look in its sightless eyes, which, when
reused to anger, send forth light cal
culated to make even Ulysses tremble.
This baneful glare is productivity
four-volt electic battery slowed away
in that portion of Toms" anatomy
generally occupied by the digestive
organs.
The general principle of constfuc-
tion, according to the British inventor,
is based upon powerful clockwork, re-
leased by lever when the tail OF the
animal is moved.
The clock works pair of bellows,
with two loud-screeching reeds, at the

lamps in the eyes, and forcing outward
dozen long needle points, which come
/, up through the skin of-the back. The
tail also acts as trigger, and releases
hammer formed of the lower jaw OF
the cat, which explodes percussion
caps in the mouth.
One night an experiment. was made.
The clockwork was wound up and the
beast placed in back garden. In due
course ferocious tabby of loose char
acter and with chips off its ears walked
up to the stranger to give battle, while
a dozen Of his lady friends sat around
| to see the fun.
In feline language, the tabby appears
to have asked his lady friends not to
crowd into the ring, and to watch close
~ while he prepared tom" for the I'M
dertaker. He began by walking up to
a wall and sharpening his claws. Then
! he came back wagging all that was left
of his tail in an aggressive and insult
ing manner, and took the measure Of
4 his silent enemy.
Without the slightest provocation he
flew at the automatic cat, removed a
lump of loose hair from his back, and
broke his tail in half.
That ended the first round, hut 1t was
only the signal for the tin tomcat to get
| into action. The tail exploded the per
cussion caps in the cats mouth with a
sound resembling that of AZ; the
electric eyes blazed out like Ladysmith
searchlights, while heart rending
| shrieks rent the air from the bellows
inside, and the needle points got their
businss ends into the tabby cat.
| Within few seconds the garden was
clear, and pale-faced pussies were tear
ing off through the quiet streets in
search of home comforts. IT was more
than month before they ventured to
peep over the wall to see il the "black
| terror" was still in possession.

BOLD NEGRO PROJECT
Proposed to Effect Conquest of Hay
ii and Establish Government.
william Plckens, YaIe's Brilliant Me-
gro Orator, Asked to BECOME the
Head of the New Movement
"Details of the Scheme.

William Pickens, the negro who won
the junior exhibition prize at Yale, has
been asked to become the head of
new Afro-American republic to be es-
tablshed in Hayti, says New York
World dispatch from New Haven, Conn.
In his Grafton, which won the prize,
Pickens discussed Hayti's freedom
and declared against it.
The scheme is to effect conquest
of the island of Hayti by American ne
groes and set up government Uto-
plan in character. The junta OF the
movement is at Sturgis, Ky, and the
correspondent of the society ism. L.
Musgroye. He asks that Mr.. Pickens
act as secretary and board member in
this section and says that the Yale
man would eventually be chosen as
president of the society. Its also sug-
gested that he take the lecture plat
form and raise funds for the organiza-
ton.
Mr.. Pickens when seen said that he
had the matter under consideration
and would seek advice before enlist
ing his services in the movement. In
discussing the plan he said:
innovations and novelties in the
methods of government are proposed
after Hayti has been overcome. While
the government would be republican
in its political formation it would be
administered as gigantic corpora
ton, of which all members of the So
ciety would be'stockholders. All land
titles and franchises are to be vested
in the state. All dangerous and incor-
rigible criminals will be provisioned
and set adrift on the sea to seek other
shores.
Agriculture, manufacturing and all
other profitable industries ere to be
encouraged.
"Public schools are to be established
and liberty is to be widespread, but the
rights of each individual are to be
bounded by the equal rights of every
fther."

A BIG SALT YEAR.
Moro Of the Article Produced IL
United states Last Year Than
Ever Before.

The reports to the United States
geological survey for 1902 on the
production of salt. arsenic and bro
mine in the United States, by Dir.
Joseph Struthers. are now in press
and will soon be issued.
The production of salt in 1902
amounted to 23,s49,221 barrels--the
largest quantity yet recorded for any
one year-vaued at $5,66s,636, as COM
pared with 20, 556,661 barrels, valued
at Sc, 617,449, in 1901, and with 20,s69,-
342, barrels, valued at $6,944,6 COB, in
1900. The chief producing states are
New York (35s per cent?, Michigan
(34.1 per cent.J, Kansas (9.1 per
cent?, and Ohio $50 per cent?. The
domestic consumption in 1902 was
rs, 1872, 579 barrels, as compared with
not quite 22,OoO,0OO barrels in 1901
and with about 2e,24o,oOO barrels in
1900. The worlds production of salt
in 1901 was valued at $45,9S0,67 as
compared with $42, 456,593 in 1900
The production of arsenious oxide
(white arsenic) during 1902 was 1853
short tons, as compared with 300 tons
in 1901 when the Puget Sound Re-
duction, company began the manu-
facture of this important substance
at Everett, Washington. The i'm

8,11o,s9s pounds, valued at $2s0.o55,
MS compared with 6,9s9,66s pounds.
valued at $316,525 in 1901.
The production of bromine during
