Buffalo, July lU.-Wllliam A. Pagan,
clerk at the Lackawanna steel plant
was arrested on a warrant issued by
Justice V. E. Bradbury of Gallipolis
O., which charges Pagan with forgery
and grand larceny. Pagan is alleged
to have forged the name of Jennie
Dunn to check for 5000, drawn on
an Ohio bank year ago. He will be
held pending the arrival of an officer
from Ohio The arrest of Pagan is
said to have brought to light a re.
markable story of social life in CALI

Hargrave, Pagan appeared at the lit

Immediately forced himself into the
social set. He is reported to have
represented himself as a man OF

said to have disappeared, leaving

WILD MEMS WEAPONS
THE PUZZLE OF THE ORIGIN OF
THE BOOMERANG.

Its CIeverncss OF Design Is One of
the Wonders of This Queer Weapon.
The Mexicans' Use of the Lasso-The
Best choose" story.
Among the weapons which the wit of
primitive man devised to aid him in
the struggle for existence with ami
mails far more formidably endowed
by nature than himself, the way in
which some were suggested to him by
the objects which he saw around him
is obvious enough, but of others we
are amazed by his ingenuity in their
design and his skill in their use.
The most striking instance of both
this skill in use and cleverness in de-
sign is perhaps the boomerang. The
perfection of balance, curve and weight
in all its parts is SO exact that modern
dynamics have been quite unable to
find a formula according to which a
workable boomerang can be turned out
by a carpenter, and the skill needed
for the use of even the most perfect
weapon is such that the untutored eff
forts of the most stalwart thrower of
a cricket ball are ridiculously futile
when he begins to make trial of it. 1t
is scarcely too much to say that in
spite of years of practice no white
man has ever succeeded in becoming
effective with it.
We are told that there is in Australia
a tree whose seed pod is SO formed
that when detached by the process of
natural growth from the branch it
whirls through the air with a curry e
analogous to that of the boomerang
we see faint suggestion of a similar
movement in the gyrations of the seed
pods of our own ashland it has been
conjectured that the observant ''black
fellow" may have received from this
the first hint of the weapon which be
eventually fashioned into the wonder
full boomerang. 1t is conjecture
which will ever remain conjectural.
Others of mans early weapons-the
club, the spear, the Ratchet originally
we may suppose, a stone cleft by acct
dent to a cutting edgel-are easy 70
understand. Nature gave them almost
ready made into his hand. The almost
universal use of the bow, a weapon OF
much more elaboration, Dies not sug-
gest puzzle nearly so battling as the
boomerang. The force of elasticity IN

London, JUL 10.-The Britishers
who have beer so virtuous recently
over the Chicago meat packing revela-
tons were c.lfrCnted with the annual
report of the inspector Of factories
and workshops, which shows that tht
conditions here are quite as revolving
as anything alleged of the western
packing center. Dirty factories and
disgusting methods seem 10 be the
rule instead OF the exception. Jam
factories, bakeries and sausage makers
are all censured as being equally
il,hy and the description of one fits
