The Use of Perfumes.

THERE is a great deal said and written
! for and against the use of perfumes,
! but side of the question which Is sell
dom touched upon Is the fact that per-
fumes have certain medicinal values, The
ancients recognized this and one of the
Latin writer's has put over a hundred diff
ferent scents on record which are rem
edies for disease. Among these the violet
has a more important place than any other
flower But It is essential that the essence
should be pure and made from the flower.
A large percentage of the violet water on
the market is only a chemical imitation,
and chemically made perfumes are irritat-
ing to the nerves II not positively in
furious. The idea which our grandmothers
had OF seeming the sheets with lavender
was not only to please the aesthetic sense
OF the person who slept between. Laven-
der is soothing to the nerves and great
sleep promoter. Some refreshing perfumes
are stimulating. but lavender combines re-
freshment and relaxation. Another per-
fume which has a distinct medicinal value
lis jasmine. Old writers suggest 1t as a
general tonic. but they add the warning
! that though when taken alone 1t Is a boon,
1t is in most compounds Injurious. produc-
! ing nerve exhaustion and profound de-
preston.
ments in the compoundng of scents. AL
most all perfumes have as a basis am
bergris or civet. And while they are most
necessary, great care must be observed in
their use. for a grain too much will make
the scent distressingly irritating to the
wearer as well as to those with whom she
comes in contact. The same is true of
many combinations of perfumes, and sew
eral separate scents attacking a sensitive
SGT oi nerves a. one lime may produce
hysteria, though the sufferer may be at a
loss to find a reason for the attack. This
in itself is a good argument against the
,ndscriminate use of perfumes. Good taste
has long waged war against the practice,
but with small results. Particularly dur
ing the last few years has there been an
increls in the offence. Satchets are worn
In the gowns, perfume is sprayed on the
hair. there are perfumed pastiles for the
bath and to burn, powder. creams. To-
lions, nail salve and rouge are perfumed,
there are scented soaps and rioboHs And
each one of these is probably redoent OF
a different scent and the combination Is
not only unpleasant, but harmful to the
nerves The most desirable scent OBJ
tainable should be used with great dis
elimination. so that its wearer need not
make herself an Objectionable member Of
society.

tContinued from Page 1.l succeeded in reaching a corner Of tn corral in this manner, never once taking my body from the ground.
 When I got there, I saw q Mexican rise uD not far from me and crawl up on the stockade fence. He hadn't perched himself there very long when q volley rang out, the splinters from the boards falling about me in a show CT. It didn't take that Mex. long to make his getaway He jumped down and began to crawl away from the scene.
 Tt was just after this that I thought it wise to let my own gang know who 1 was. 1 couldn't remain out there all night with that arm of mine. so yelled to them. telling them that it was l and that 1 had been shot. Some one answered me, giving me his name, but l could not catch il. knew, however, from his voice that il was one of the boys. so cautioned him not to shoot. and to tell the others not to fire upon me.
 Receiving assurance that all was well, l crawled back to our line and made my way back to Naco, where Dr. Harvey dressed my arm, and then I got a rig and came home to Bisbee. My arm ached terribly all the way up here, but after getting it redressed here it feels better. The ball went right through, fortunately not touch ing the bone"
 Buchner received his baptism of fire at Naco on Friday night, and though it was his first exposure 10 bull lets he says that at all times his fac ulties were alert and that he was able to think clearly and quickly. He was the first man from this side of the line to fall by a Mexican bull let. He reports that another hard skirm- ish took place after he had reached Naco.

PARIS. June 2.-Chicago meat will be barred out of France ii the object of today's meeting of the League of Public Hygiene, backed by several score of French packers, can be at ta!ned. The. league expects at least to get the Government to inauguTati' a new system of inspection, which will p;event -ainted meat from entering the county. |.

 According to his testiihohy, no meat coming from Chicago Gan be eater wi,h safety The most sensational of 'other evidence" was continued in the declaration that cases had occurred of worRingmen falling accidently into the sausage machines, their bodies being ground up with other contents of the vats and issuing in the form of fcod for human consumption.

ONE LESSON OF THE EARTHQUAKE.

If argument were needed to show 3he adyisibility of an investigation of structural materials it is more than supplied in the recent earthquake in California.
 What buildings best stood the shock i5 a question of very great practical interest. Why they endured when others fell is food for thought to builders al lover the coutnry.
 In this connection it is interesting To note that the Appraisers. Building in San Francisco. where the United States Geological Survey maintains local office, is one of the few business structures in that city which was rrinjureI either by shock or by flame. Mir. Charles G, Yale. special agent of the Survey reports that little plaster has fallen but that the building is probably the only one in the city that shows not a single crack in its brick walls. This may be due to the facr that the foundation consists of six foot bed of solid cement placed upon thousands of piles and that the bricks are put together with. cement instead of mortar. The walls are thicker be- lew the side walks than above them. When Ihe building moves, it moves as monolith, and while the vibration is considerable. no damage has been done except to lthe plaster.
 That fhe Geological Survey might with I7,fofit to the country undertake the investigation of structural mate rials is attested by the numerous re quests which it receives for informa- tior on the subject. Twice during the past year the Survey was visited by a body of engineers who represented large industrial developments in T number of different States. The Sur vey was unable to supply the inf0rma- tion which they desired concerning the strength and endurance of materials 10 be used in a variety Of building and construction work This one fact shows how desirable it is that the in vestigations now under way by the Survey be enlarged. -s@E
 These investigations have thus far had to do mainly with the testing of cements and concretes. It is felt that the work should be continued and am plified

Col. Kc.terlitzsky is absolutely in control and had the situation well in hand last night.
 One of the Bisbee volunteers named Hanlon, who became separated from his company and was surrounded by an angry mob of Mexicans, who at tempted to take sshis gun. Hanlon lodged them and commenced shoot ing. firing three shots. The Mexicans who attempted to disar mhim broke and ran. The Mexican police arrived about that time and placed Hanlon under arrest. He was released short ly afterwards owing to the efforts of BIddy Doyle and Capt Rynning,
 The unfortunate incident will make bad blood between Americans and Nexicans at Cananea for some time to come. but it is believed that the Mexican miners and laborers, acting under advice of their Governor, and in the abJence of revolutionary lead CTS. will return to their places as usual. At any rate, there is no longer cause for alarm or apprehension re- garding the welfare of friends at Can anea
 Mexican police are arresting the leaders of the mob. and the ring leader, who marched at the head of the rioters on Friday, carrying red flag, was shot to death at the first voliey, sixteen bullets penetrating his body.

STOLEN GEM IS FOUND
 IN STOMACH OF WOMAN

OMAHA, June 2.-One of the strang- est cases in criminal court records is that of Miss Mae Thomas. professions al shoplifter, who has in her stomach a stolen diamond valued at s30 be- longing to the jewelry firm of T. L. Combs & Co. The only way in which the jewel can be recovered is by a surgical operation. The woman fears the surgeons knife and will not sub init to an operation. It is probable she will go free as the authorities say the laws do not cover her case.
 The jewellers employed counsel to try to obtain from the court an order e. recting the operation, but Judge Ser ka of the police court ruled that the owners are not entitled under the state laws to recover stolen property in that way.

SLIM HORSE TRADE.
General Receipts Increase Around 100
Arrivals Over Last Week.

Chicago. Nov. 26.-Feeble outside de-
general trade for the week. The early
dullness Of the market was attributed
largely to the unfavorable weather
conditions, as three days rain prac-
tically eliminated the local demand
the first half of the week A feature
which contributed to the slow move
ment of trade was the large number Of
out season offerings for which the
demand is congested and orders indif-
ferent. With better class of arrivals
the tone of the market would have rul-
ed more active and the general trade
less unsatisfactory. Dealers discrim-
mated sharply against aged and also
3-year-old classes and such lots were
moved at bargain prices Choice stall
finished lots of drafters found steady
outlet at stationary prices, many con-
slgnments changing hands at $225@
227.5O. according to quality and weight
The average heavy business arrivals
cleared slowly at $170@210 A four
DAYS special sale Of harness horses di-
vided the interests of the market and
the attractions in the special event
drew the larger portion of both outside
and local dealers to the advantage of
harness classes. Trade at no time the
past week for general commercial
classes displayed aggressive urgency,
with all offerings except select classes
clearing at 5000 unevenly lower. Es-
timated receipts for the week were
