found was made chiefly from
pumpkin, colored with coal tar
dyes and containing a preventative
in the form of benzoic. Timothy

OI ST. DIED ELECTRICITY.
Minister of Posts and Telegraphs in Japan Worked in American
 Fanfnrxy

Away back in the early sos. F said well known electrician Of this city, "there came to me with a letter of introduction from the president of the company, young Jap, and the note directed that he be given every opportunity to work in all the depart ments of the factory, so that he might be proficient in every branch. He was apt, willing. always wore a grin and remained at the place about two years"
 The teller of the story found out during these two years that the boy had been working as lineman before he appeared at the factory. His name was Oi. He went back to Japan, and only at Christmas time. by present. was the electrical engineer reminded of him. Many years later the engi- neer was waited upon by three Japa- llese who wanted to know all about the latest devices for telephones and telegraphs. They were electrical en- giners and had bee taught all they knew at the Imperial University in Tokio by Prof Oi, from whom they carried letter of introduction to the engineer. They were Imperial Com- missioners, and the engineer took them all over this country explaining thingsA The brightest of the three was called Wadachi and the others were NalSayma and Okonoto. They told their mentor that Oi was now minister of posts and telegraphs in Ja- pan, and this important position he now holds during war times."-Pitts- burg Dispatch. fae-a s@a

pr,ANKEr MADE OF ELK TEETH

The famous, elk tooth robe that be- longed to a daughter of Old Crow, a Cheyenne chief, has been purchased by the proprietors of the Thomas Fri bune. Old Crow's household was loath to part with the rebic that had been the pride of the Cheyenne and Sioux Indians for several generations, The FPS teeth represented 364 bull elk, as there are only two good teeth in the head of each animal.
 When the robe changed hands Old Crows entire family of about fifteen aborigines was present to see that the deal was pulled off according to the latest rules of commerce. When the money was handed over there was a grand rush for the .'wohaw' (meat) market, and the schuck" that was hauled to Old Crows tepee that evening was sufficient to feed q com pany- of soldiers.

FULL-GNOWN OWL AS A PET,
It's Favorite Roost is on Top of 8 ' Large Clock.

Perhaps one of the oldest pets in Albany is full-grown owl owned by William Hill of 37 Washington ave nue. Mir Hill has a farm in the vi- cinfty Of Greenbush Heights, and last fall while gathering the apples from his orchard he captured the owl and brought it home with him. E
 An owl, when captured after at taining it's full growth Is considered one of the hardest birds in the world to keep alive in captivity. Yet Mir Hill's owl has never shown any signs of pining. It's favorite roost is on the top of large clock in Mir Hills place of business where 1t percles for hours at time, like Poe's raven on the marble bust of Palais. On this account it has been chrfstened FOwl Father Time" Three or four times during the day it will fly around the room. \
 Mir Hill believes that owls can see much better in the daytime than most persons suppose, for his bird has no trouble i'll making the circuit of the room without colliding with any thing. Moreover when piece of fish is left on bench the owl prompt ly flies to it and devours 1t. At other times when hungry the owl will leave his perch on the clock, fly down to the foot and take his station within about two feet of his master, where he will cock his head first on one side and then on the other in the most comical manner When he IS given something to eat he promptly returns to his perch on the ck.-Albany Press
