Hearing In Schafer Murder Case.


BEDFORD, Ind, Feb. 29.-James
Mcdonald, alias William Parsons sus-
pected of being the murderer of Miss
today for a preliminary hearing. Owing
to the intense interest manifested
in the case the public was denied ad-
mittance to the court room. 1t is un-
derstOOd that Mcdonald will endeayor
to prove an alibi, though he has ad-
mitted that he was near the scene at
the hour when the crime is supposed
to have been committed. Persistent
efforts have been made by Sheriff
Smith and others to get a confession
from the accused man, but so far he
has baff1ed all their attempts in this
direction in his original statement that
he is innocent Of the murder.

LANDsMAN DESCRIBES FISH
Landlubber's Description of Skate Proves Funny Calls Mouth
 Automatic Trap.

The barndoor skate beggars descrip- ton. I never could tell whether he was looking at me with his eyes or his breathe-foles He Is a bottom f1sh, and flat like founder. He has a triangular body, the apex of which forms the snout; opposite his snout are his tail and a few extra pieces of his overcoat, which kind nature tagged on to him in case he gets torn and has to be mended. Hista is eInbellished with few spines-this know for fact. He has couple of eyes, a little way back of his snout. and right back of these are couple of holes that extend completely through him. These holes connect with his lungs, or what ever he uses to breathe with, and have an uncomfortable way of looking at you at the same time as his eyes. He has a mouth, too, but 1t Is on the under side of him, and convenient for business It is funny thing, with spines on the lips, and when you paii the lower jaw the uD- per jaw moves with it-a sort of auto matic trap, not unlike what you see in any ten-cent restaurant This is land- luhber's description in Country Life, but 1t is enough.

REFUSED HIS OWN REMEDY
Noted Baltimore Surgeon Resists Use of Knife for Appendicitis
 and Recovers.

A noted surgeon of Baltimore was re- gently attacked by appendicitis This surgeon performed last year 800 opera tions and lost but two, but when he was told that he had to be operated upon he objected, although the operators were also noted surgeons and intimate friends.
 Not on your life" said the patient. Urging was of no avail, and finally remedies unaccompanied by the knife were used.
 The surgeon was sick some weeks, but he finally recovered, and only re- gently has been chronicled as having performed an operation for the disease with which he, too, was afflicted, and for which he would not undergo a siege at fellow professionals hands.

 The accounts received from the Brit ish force at Lhassa all agree that the first view of the town in approaching i. from the west is very remarkable. On the left is conical hill, on which IS situated Potala, the Dalai Lama,s resi- dence, with it's lofty buildings and gilt roof, between which and the town runs an avenue of ancient trees To theright is Changpa hill, surmounted by the med. ical college, an immense structure over a quarter of mile long and several stories high, and between the two emil nences the traveller catches his first glimpse of the Forbidden City, a closely packed mass of well built, whdtewashed houses, surmounted by roofs of blue glazed tiles with, here and, there, gilt tering spire, and in the center the huge ''cathedral'' or temple of Jo vo, the true "Lhassa' or place of the gods, 7 crowned with innumerable gilded domes and pin- nacles.
 The city forms an irregular oval of six or seven miles in circumference, and round the whole runs the famous 'Cir- cular Road,'' along which pilgrims are always passing, prostrating themselves every few feet.

NIGHT Blindness.

Youths Companions: Night blindness Is
a condition In which vision Is perfect, or
fairly SO, In daylight, but fails with the
setting OF the sun, and Is not restored
under ordinary conditions of artificial IL
The sufferer from night
blindness can usually see the light Of a
candle or lamp when he looks directly at
1t, but he cannot read, even when the
light is thrown directly upon the page.
Usually, however, he sees well In q room
lighted brilliantly with electricity, the de-
gree of illumination then approaching thai
of sunlight.
The cause Of night blindness is believed
to be an exhausting of the power Of Wis
ion by too great light, for it occurs mainly
among soldiers and sailors In the tropics,
who are exposed for many hours to the
glare Of the sun, and among arctic ex-
plorers, whose eyes are dazzled by reflec-
ton from the snow. On shipboard 1t is
often associated with scurvy, and per-
sons who are depressed physically or men

Sailors have a superstition that the trou-
BILE is due to imprudence in sleeping on
deck in the moonlight. and his belief Is
embodied In the term moon blink by
which they call 1t. The tropical moon Is
probably as guiltless In this respect as 1t
is in the production Of insanity, except
that 1t might act as the sun does, al
