Buffalo, July 20.-Driven to insanity supposedly by losses in speculation conducted under spiritual" guidance, Edgar T. Washburn of Heathfield & Washburn, grain brokers, shot and killed his wife. his daughter and him self earlly at the family home on Put nam street
 Mr.Washburn was a Spiritualist and is known to have followed in many matters the directions of which he re- garded as a kindly spirit" He made much money and, according 10 his friends who attended seances at his house, ascribed his good fortune to supernatural influences. A reversal of these prosperous conditions is the only reason that can be assigned for the tragedy. as MT. Washburn's fam fly relations were happy and his busi- ness affairs, so far as the partner ship is concerned. were in satisfactory shape.

Hidden in Siuht.

A new form of hide and seek"
which is hidden in sight"-a very
pretty game. AL must go out of the
room except one, who then places the
thing to be found. such as thimble
or a cotton reel, so that any one can
see it, but will not notice it without
looking rather hard. A thimble is not
easily seen on bright iron fender,
and a reel of cotton takes good deal
of finding when properly placed on
some mantelpiece ornament, or even
ON the top of picture frame.
Here Is another secret: Tell the
seekers that they must find a handker-
chief. Tie it round the handle OF the
door (if it is white one); show the
seekers politely in, and shut the door
after them. so that they do not touch
the handle. They will take long
time to find the handkerchief. It
is strict rule Of the game that the
first finder of an object does not
make known his discovery. He Just
sits down. One by one the seekers
sit down, until only one remain
standing. and then it IS time for some

Homemade BIoWpipe.

blOwpipe SO that the shorter stem
nearly touches the flame, blow stead
lily through the pipestem current Of
air into the flame. This will send the
flame on to the glass, and the heat
will be so great that the glass will
soon become red-hot, melting mass,
which may be worked into various
shapes with pair of pinchers. Or
several bits Of glass of different colors
may be Joined by turning the full
force Of the flame on them.
But it is even more amusing to ex-
pertinent with the glass tubes. Blow
the flame on the end of one of them
antil it becomes red-hot, and then with
the pinchers. press the ends together,
thus closing it. To make a balloon all
you have to do now is to heat the end
that is closed, or rather that part of
the tube near the closed end, and then
laying aside the blowpipe, blow into
the open end of the tube with your
mouth. If you do this before the glass
has had time to cool, the tube will
expand at that end until it forms a
bubble, or balloon, and il you blow
long enough, and the glass is hot
enough, you may make it about as
thin as soap bubble.
Some of the boys may want to know
why a blowpipe increases the heat Of
the flame SO much. 1t is because the
air blown into the flame supplies it
with largely increased amount Of
oxygen and this produces more COM
busticn.

Then fold the card lengthwise, along

Glass Blowing for Amusement.


Boys cannot blow glass so as to
make bottles and goblets and other
articles of that kind, but they can
.muse themselves for hours by melt
Ing bits of glass and joining them to-
sether, or by melting small glass tubes
and either drawing them out to mere
threads or blowing them into little
balloons until their surface is as thin
IS g soap bubble and almost as ira
gile.
The glass tubes referred to are
smaller than the end of a pipestem,
are about four inches in length, and
are made of very thin glass A dozen
Of them may be bought for few cents
at any place where chemical supplies
are sold.
For this glass blowing amusement a
homemade blow pipe will be needed,
and that any boy can make without
trouble. Get two common clay pipes
and break off the stem of one about
three inches from the little end. Then
get cork that exactly fits the bowl
of the other pipe, cut a hole through
it large enough to insert the mouth
piece already broken off, and draw
this piece through the cork until the
larger end is flush with the surface of
the cork.
Now put the cork in the bowl of the
pipe, and fill the small end of the
inserted stem with clay. Make hole
through the clay with a needle, and
your blowpire is complete.
To use it on glass, the fiame of a
common tallow candle is eli that you
need. Take piece Of broken window
