A REMARKABLE TIMEPlEcE
Clock Contrived by Pittsburg Rail-
road Man Is Something
of q Wonder.

One thousand four hundred and forty
different kinds of time at the same in
slant is one of the attachments made
possible by means of a strange clock
contrived by Pittsburg railroad man,
and which, says the Pittsburg Dis
patch, was for the first time introduced
before the public recently through the
efforts Of Rev. w. w. Hall, Of the But
Ter street Methodist Episcopal church.
The pastor desired some Instructive
feature for the regular meeting of the
Lowther Brotherhood. and finally pre-
vailed upon the inventor. A. M. Lock-
hart, to speak in public upon the sub
ject Of "Time and Its Effects" using
the clock to illustrate his theor es. The
lecture hall was crowded with railroad
men and their friends.
The clock is more than nine feet
high and supports dial four feet in
diameter, upon which Is adjusted a
correct map of the world that revolves
and by means of which 1t Is possible
to ascertain at glance the exact hour
at any point on the earth's surface.
1t moves according to the movement
of the world. which is contrary TO the
hands of the clock, and what is more,
the hands Of this particular timepiece
are stationary. The clock was con-
trived by Mr.. Lockhart, and every par
ticle of 1t was shaped and put together
by him.

"Shodoy.

1t Is old wool redressed by scientific
and clean methods. 1t Is component
of most of the wooden garments of to-
day. The world does not grow enough
wool to enable us to have constant sup
ply of new wooden garments, except with
the aid of shoddy. 1t is shoddy that has
enabled the workingman to buy new
suit of clothes at the price of a week 8
wage. In the olden days an all-woolen
garment was SO expensive that it had to
last its owner many years, unless he
were wealthy man. 1t Is better n.y.
giene for a man to buy two new shoddy
suits year than to buy an all-wool gar
ment which must last him two years.
Most of the clothes we wear, in fact,
contain an element of shoddy, and so far
from being the worse for 1t, are the bet
ter.AMagazine Of Commerce.

SLOW CURE FOR INSOMNIA
The Victim Took Beer for It, But in
Extremely Moderate
Quantity.

Speaking Of homeopathy" said the
doctor, according to the Philadelphia
Record, reminds me of the case OF
Miss N, who traces her ancestry back
through a long line of Puritans, and
has imbibed from them strong and un-
yielding principles as regards saloons
and liquor. Miss N has been troubled
with insomnia, and has tried all sorts
of remedies. Finally, she told me Of
her trouble. / suggested that beer
might help her to WOO sleep. She was
Mortified, but at last beer peddleI
stopped at her door and left a dozen
bottles.
1.-THE beer man returned in about
three days for the empty bottles.
My dear man. said Miss N, the
bottles are not yet empty
"The beer man waited several days
more and again appeared

ScOURGE OF STccKMEN.
Ravages Of the Big Gray Wolf Fal
Worse Than Those of the
Coyote.

Big wolves are found In both Texas
and Oklahoma, but they are rare com
pared to the coyotes; and they are
great wanderers, says Theodore Roose-
welt, in Scribner's. Alone or in par.
ties OF three or four or half dozen
they travel to and fro across the coun-
try, often leaving a district at once II
they are molested. Coyotes are more
or less plentiful everywhere through
out the west in thinly settled districts
and they often hang about in the i'm
mediate neighborhood of towns. They
do enough damage to make farmers
and ranchers kill them whenever the
chance offers. [)
But this damage is not appreciable
VIXEN compared with the ravages OF
their grim, big brother, the gray wolf,
which, wherever it exists in numbers.
is a veritable scourge to the stock
men.

SUNDAY, DAY OF MURDERS
New Orleans Policeman Says Sensa-
donal Grimes Are Committed
on Sabbath.

"Have you ever noticed how many
murders are committed on Sunday?"
asked the old police captain, according
to the New Orleans Times-Democrat
This thing has bothered me for many
years, and l have never been able to
figure out why 1t is that most homi-
cides among white people are commit
Is different Saturday night Is the ia
vorite time among the negroes, and
this, guess, Is due to the fact OF Sat
urday night being pay night, and a
night looked upon by the negroes as q
night for jollifcation. In many cases
these occasions of jollification wind up
in murders. The majority of the most
sensational murders that have occurred
In New Orleans in the last year or two
have been committed on Sundays and
there is no apparent reason for 1t. II
you will search your memory you will
find that what I say Is SO. Many will
tell you that these murders are the re-
suits of Saturday night sprees, but the
eases have in mind cannot be classed
there. In the first place. these murders
have been committed by persons not
under the influence of liquor, and IN
nearly every case this has been shown
to be so. In nearly all cases where the
murder is out of the ordinary and
where 1t attracts more than usual at.

day on which the crime Is committed

Diamonds Explode.

A curious fact regarding diamonds is
that 1t is not uncommon for the crystals
to explode as soon as they are brought
up from the mine. Sometimes they have
burst in the pockets or the warm hands
of miners. due to the effect of increased
temperature. Large stones are more
likely to do this than small ones. valu
able stones have been destroyed in this
way. BY way of safeguard, some deal
ers imbed large diamonds in a raw po-
tato for safe transport from South
Africa. 49,"

In all restaurants dimes are avoided in

Every waiter considers his services
worth more than that, and he takes
precautions to prevent patron from
disgracing himself by Offering him one.
Cashiers are all in on the game of

of the game, and shows good ma

showed up especially good, and G..

but the Republicans are apprehensive
lest he be elected, and considering the
remarkable race he made in New
York city last year for mayor on a
platform of his own making and
against the candidates of both the
Democrats and Republicans, they need
feel much uneaSineSS. Hearst occupies
a unique position in American poll
tics. He is many times a millionaire.

several great daily newspapers that
are published in different parts of the
country and hence has potent medi-
umS for diffusing his ideas of govern
mental policies among the people. He
has been a member of congress for
several terms but has never attracted
any special attention there and is re-
garded as a man of mediocre ability.
Judge Parker in an interview outlines
plan by which the Democrats can
defeat his nomination, but what is
called tine upper country vote in New
York continues to fall in the Hearst

past record, is an uncertain quantity

Hearst's election as governor of New

general readjuStment of party lines. {
Many of the Republicans there are
dissatisfied with the present governor, /,

The Sentinel suggests Judge James c..

elements. He is young and vigorous, a
knightly character, and a young man
who fittingly tyIifies the chivalry
and knighthood of the past. He is
scholarly and there are few men whose
