MAN AND HIS SKIN.

Keep the pores of the skin open and
In good condition by frequent bathing.
Man sheds his skin just as thoroughly
as some OF the lower orders of crea-
lures, but he does it more slowly and
imperceptibly. The cells which COM
pose the lower strata Of the epidermis
are perpetually renewed and push up
ward, and the outer layer must be con-
stantly removed. This process, which
is termed desquamation, is absolutely
requisite to the health and beauty of
the skim The more rapidly this pro-
cess is carried on the more clear and
transparent becomes the epidermis and
the more roseate and velvety the skin
tissues which are constantly forming
below.

From an Exchanges:
John Maxwell, who had taken part
in the battle Of Rullion Green, Nov. %,
1855. successfully defied the many at
tempts that were made to capture him.
Once he had q very narrow shave. The
soldiers traced him to Edinburg and
there gave him a chase. Boiling down
close, he dashed into a tavern and
explained his desperate case to the
landlady, who locked him into the
chest that held the oatmeal.
The soldiers then entered and search
ed the house from top to bottom. but
could not find their man. Vowing they
knew he was on the premises, they
called for drink and sat down to think
over the matter. One Of them. seated
on the box that contained the fugitive,

went to the door and cried to her girl
upstairs:

A OVERWHELMING INSTANCE.

From the Chicago Tribune
The mileage incident IL dishearten-

HOW HE GAINED ADMISSION.

From the Chicago Law Journal:
One Of Assistant Attorney General
Beck's stories at the Hardwicks So
ciety dinner in England was especially
appreciated by the students. A gen.
eral in the Civil War applied at the
close of the conflict for admission to
the bar of the United States. A COM
mittee of three examiners reported
that he had. answered correctly two=
thirds of the, questions put to him. A
Judge, astonished at the generals sue

COPPER IN CHEESE,

From Health:
The green color in certain kinds of
Italian cheese is due to the milk hav-
Ing been kept standing in copper ves-
sells. During the period of repose the
milk takes up considerable quantities
of copper Indeed it is customary to
estimate the degree of acidity attained
by the milk by noting the gradual dis
appearance Of the brightness of the
highly polished metallic surface. DR..
Mariani examined twenty-five samples
OF green parmesan cheese from various
places. and has found that to about
every two pounds Of cheese there IL
present from 8 to 3.3 grains Of copper.

HAIGHT & FREESE

Not to Trade
QUOTATIONS POSTED AS USUAL

The local brokerage Office of the
, Haight and Freese Company, at No.
SOC IL Market street, for which con-
cern receivers We're appointed yester-
day in New York and Boston, was
open today The manager w. r.. Ta-
ney. Jr.. advised customers not to do
business and his advice was needed.
The wire over which quotations are re-
ceived was clicking merrily and an
operator placed the quotations on the
board as if nothing had happened. The
Office, however, was practically va
cant.
there was nothing in the semblance
OF a run on the local Office as was the
case in Philadelphia today. Mr.. fancy
stated that the offices of the company
in Baltimore and Washington were do
ing business and that the headuarters
in Richmond and Norfolk were also
open. He did not know, however,
whether there was any trading in the
two latter cities. The Wilmington office
will probably be kept open unless the
receivers shall order it closed.
Scared depositors in the company
gathered about the headquarters in
Philadelphia before eight o'clock this
morning all eager to withdraw the
money they had invested.
In groups of twos and threes they
stood on curbstone or i'm the corridor
waiting until the doors should be
opened They discussed, somewhat
uneasily. the prospect Of recovering
the sums they sought, and it was a
rather nervous line that formed in the
outer Office when the doors were
thrown open.
Il proved case of the "early bird
maxim. At o'clock the cashiers
window was opened. and the eager de-
positors crowded about the aperture
There were probably twenty persons
in the group AsNthe first of these pre-
sented their claims they were paic
without question and unreasonable de-
lay But a few minutes after 9 O'Clock
tho payments came to an abrupt end
PAYMENTS WE'RE HALTED.
Chief Operator Boardman. who, ii
the absence Of Manager Turner, haC
been i'm charge of the Philadelphia
office. announced that he had received
word from Haight & Freese offices il
New York that payments TO depositor
be stopped. At that time there wer
probably a score ro more in line. Tn
sudden suspension came as blow il
the face to these persons. as they ha'
been lured to confidence by the rapid
ity with which the first withdrawal
had been paid over.
There was no appeal. however. TIL
cashiers window was closed, and tn
discounted patrons had to leave with
out getting their money.
1t IS expected that application vii
be made to the Federal Courts in Phil
) adelpnia for a receiver.

RADICALS WILL
PROBABLY WIN
Temperance Convention at
Dover Tomorrow Promises
to be Lively
ECHOES OF LOCAL OPTION BILL
sneeIal 10 40 EvenIng journal


Smyrna. May iO.-The Rev. DIR. Watt,
president Of the state Temperance All
ance. in his sermon at Asbury NJ. f.
Church on Sunday evening, his topic be-
ing "The Crisis in Delaware" hinted that
there arc likely to be some decidedly
sensational developments at the State
Convention Of Temperance Workers in
Dover tomorrow.
The inside history Of the juggling with
the Kent county local option bill may be
rccited and the part taken in the doctor
ing it received in the Senate Committee
rooms by prominent Union Republican
attorney assisted by an equally promi-
nent Democratic attorney may be mar
rated.
The chances are that there win be two
declarations of principles presented TO
the convention. The radical side will ad-
vocate the organization of an out-and-
out new party with an the attributes OF
a genuine political party; that in every
district and for every office candidates
are to be nominated representing this new
organization. and that in no event viii
any compromise be tolerated.
The platform of the organization is TO
be broad. 1t viii demand that oonsttu-
tional rights, as prescribed by that docu-
ment, shall be guaranteed to all.
The other declaration OF principles
which will also have a large following
will advocate that no party formation
shall be made, but that in districts where
the old partys rfeuse to nominate men
acceptable to the temperance people that
separate and Independent candidates be
named by the latter.
The convention win be wen attended
and from indications it Is likely that the
radical element vii win.
