CHASTITY RELICS BY MAIL.
Human Head Sent From Japan to
Minneapolis.

A human head from Japan and a
piece of heron feather jewelry from
China are the first consignments to
reach the Minneapolis postoffice un-
der the new parcels post convention
with those countries, says the Minne-
apolis Tribune. The duty was paid
in San Francisco by the importer. a
Chinese property holder In the twin
cities.
The head has peen so altered by
secret chemical processes that it re-
sembles a carving i'm wood. The Sc
cret is now known only to one family
in Japan. the Tanakas of Yokohoma.
but was formerly an art known to
several South American Indian tribes.
The heads are secured from Cam
ton, China, after beheading and are
imported to Japan. The heads are
wrapped closely with bandages and
are soaked in different chemicals.
This produces a hardening and
shrinking of the fibers and eventually
the head is but half the former size
and is as hard as wood. During the
treatment it becomes n reddish brown
but may be bleached to its natural
colors.
The heron feather jewelry is one
of the strangest creations of the
"flowery kingdom" and is manufac-
tured at Shanghai and Canton.
The heron is a difficult bird to
capture and there is only one feather
in each tail that can be used. This
is then cut into minute fragments,
which form the basis of blue enam-
el. The enamel is used on some of
the finest Chinese jewelry. The ap-
prentices who do the work, labor for
four years learning the art for their
meals, they then work for four years
at nominal wages. BY this time the
fine work has rendered them stone
blind and they are turned loose to
work as common coolies. at the docks
for 10 cents a day.

WHEELING NEWSPAPER
PLANT is DESTROYED
Fire in West Virginia City Does Damage
to Extent of $500, o,ooo.

WHEELING, w. Va, Jan. 17.-An en-
tire block in the heart of the business dis
trict was burned tonight, entailing loss
of nearly 100000. The fire originated
in the boiler rooms of the Wheeling Daily
News and spread rapidly, entirely censum-
ing the newspaper plant, wholesale
liquor house owned by Shaefer & Drie-
horst, and the extensive plant of the
Locke Bros. Shoe company. Several
other buildings caught fire, but were
saved by the prompt work of the fire de-
partment and volunteer citizens. The fire
spread with such rapidity that the en-
ployes of the News had no chance to
escape by the stairways. and the night
editor, Allen B. Smith, and his assistant,
r. NJ. Archer. were compelled to jump
from the second story window into the
streets. escaping with slight injuries. A
few moments afterward the siX-story walls
collapsed.
A hot box on the engine was the cause
Of the fire. The proprietors of the News
carried but little insurance, but the rest of
the sufferers are well covered.

OF the Fourteenth United States cav
airy and engaged in the expedition
against the warlike Moros in the Phil

other things he states that he disarmed
two Moros who attempted to rush one
of the gates of the American garrison,
and that one of them was buried and
the other was in dying condition
the inference being that he shot the
two men. His letter is in part as fol-

stock raisers of South Dakota have in
terested themselves in the matter of
having a live stock exhibit at the st.
Louis Exposition. They are greatly
handicapped by the failure of the
legislature to appropriate more than
$4,000 for a South Dakota exhibit. AS
the live stock industry is one of the
most important of the state, annually
bringing into South Dakota from $780,
GOO 0e0 to $40, 100000, the stock raisers
are very desirous of having the indus
try represented. They are endeavoring
to have the sum of $1,000 set aside for
the purpose by the exposition commits
sioners of South Dakota. The commits
sioners, however, in view of the COM
paratively small sum appropriated for
a state exhibit, will not be able to set
aside the sum asked for. They have
offered to pay the freight On show
herds to and from St Louis.
