WOMAN HAS HORN ON HEAD.
Peculiar Appendaee, Measuring Five
Inches Long, Removed by Physician.

Hamilton, O.-An extraordinary
and fully authenticated medical case
has developed at Gratis. village in
Preble county, ten miles from Hamil-
ton. 1t is reported by DR.. II. c. Law
renee and subsantiated by several
Hamilton doctors.
A woman So years old in the vii
lage developed horn on her fore
head. IL grew to the length OF two
inches and was attached to the skull.
Some two years ago she struck door
and broke one inch from the bony
growth. 1t again developed more rap
idly than before and attained a length
in diameter at the base and tapered
to a point.
DIR. Lawrence recently sawed off
the entire horn, which in every way
resembles a rams horn. He confirms
the statement in all details, and has
exhibited the growth to many Hamil-
ton physicians, who pronounce it a
genuine horn. The woman's general
health is not affected.

Princeton, N. Princeton univer-

which will stand directly north of the

the copy of the famous Turnbull sun

and will be finished in about two
weeks, but will not be unveiled until
early in November.
Sir William Mather, M. p, the don

Embroidery Industry in Calcutta

Consul General w. II. Michael
makes the following report from Cal
cutta on the embroidery industry in
that part of India: The declared
value of chikon embroideries exported
from Calcutta TO the United States
during the calendar year 1906 was
$42,O72. The value of shipments to
other countries is not stated, but /
learn from the men engaged in collect
ing and exporting chikon embroider-
les that America takes twothirds OF
all shipped from Calcutta. AS most
of this work is done in Bengal IL is
probably within bounds to say that
two-thirds Of all chikon work exported
from India goes to the United States

had tuberculosis several years, and a
year ago could hardly get around her
home.
Secretary Hurry, of the board OF
health of Indiana, sent out set OF
rules which were intended to be
placed in the hands of the afflicted,
and contained the latest methods as
to how to combat the malady. Among
the most important of these rules is
the injunction to have as much fresh
air as possible when sleeping, advo-
eating sleeping out of doors in tent,
or other structure where the patient
would get nothing but fresh air.
A large tent was placed in her yard
near the house. A floor was placed in
1t and a stove arranged so that II
could be heated, but at the same time
there was opportunity for plenty OF
fresh air to get into the tent around
the walls. Her husband assisted her
to keep open air home, for she was
not able to walk that short distance
at that time. They slept in the tent
all through last winter, and are still
sleeping there.
From the beginning Mrs. Fee began
to show signs Of improvement until
she is now almost well.

INVENTION OF FISHERMAN MAY
REVOLUTIoNIzE INDUSTRY.
Old Salt at Gloucester Has a Device
Called "the Jieger" Which May
Mean a Great Saving to the
New Englanders.

Gloucester, Mass.-Capt Angus
Hines, a weather-beaten fisherman,
has invented a new method of captur-
ing cod without bait that promises to
revolutionize the fishing industry Of
New England. All along the coast.
from Maine to Cape Cod, the baitless
method of taking cod has become a
topic of interest.
For nearly a score of years the cost
of sailed CLANS, squid and cells and
other cod bait has been an important
factor in reducing the profits of New
England fishermen.
Captains of fishing schooners that
sail from Boston, Cape Ann and Cape
Cod have been obliged to fill their
vessels holds with bait in barrels be-
fore proceeding to the fishing grounds.
The sailed clans have to be shipped
from Maine for this purpose Often
days are spent on the fishing grounds
in capturing sQuid for bait.
Capt. Hines, who recently sailed in
to Gloucester in his vessel, the Annie
M Parker, with $4,000 pounds OF
cod, a record load, created a sensation
among fishing concerns by catching
fully half this cargo by means of his
latest tangled device for Turing the
cod from the depths.
Capt. Hines, when he started for
Sable island in May, carried 140 bar
rels of sailed clans for bait. Before
returning he threw so barrels over,
board and gave away 20 barrels to
other fishermen.
This new device for taking fish has
been named the jigger." 1t consists
of a nodded fish-shaped piece OF
shiny lead, about eight inches long
from the head of which projects a
pair of big hooks.
When Capt Hines arrived on the
fishing grounds at Sable island last
May he discovered that the schools
of fish were slow to take the clan
bait. Instead, the cod seemed to be
pursuing the herring which infested
the waters.
Confronted with this problem, the
captain set to work to solve it. 1t was
impossible to obtain herring enough
for bait, and the thought struck hin
that device made to deceive the coo
would solve his troubles.
With a piece of lead the captain
fashioned little fish over the upper
ends of two large cod hooks anC

Gladstone, Mich.-Possibly the most
elaborate clock in the state, probably
the most unique, is that which John
Novack, a jeweller of Escanaba, has
installed at his home across the bay
from this city at a cost of approx
mately $1,000. 1t is a massive affair,
feet 10 inches in height and weigh
ing nearly as much as a piano. The
framework and all the working parts
were made from special orders, and
on delivery were assembled by the
owner of the clock.
BY an arrangement of silver tubes
ranging from four to seven feet in
length and installed in the interior of
the timepiece the Westminster and
Wellington chimes are struck every
quarter hour by hammers resembling
those OF a piano. Each hour also is
marked by the playing of the chimes,
and is followed by the requisite mum

WILL MAKE POLAR DASH.
Ice Pack and Canvas Boats TO Be Used
In Trip Northward.

Gloucester, Mass.-The former fish,
ing schooner, John r. Bradley, which
took DIR. Frederick A. Cook, the Brook
lyn explorer, TO Etah, from whence he
is to make a dash for the pole, is at
anchor in the harbor here.
Capt. Moses Bartlett, her command
er, who was with Peary in the Roose-
welt, says that Cook accompanied John
r. Bradley, the owner of the schooner,
ostensibly upon hunting trip and UNI
til their arrival at Etah he had not
announced his intention of trying for
the pole to anyone. He took only one
man from the Bradley, Rudolph Frank
eron, cook. His plan is to stay in
Etah until December or until the ice
pack becomes well hardened, then
dash along the pack. When open
water is met he will cross it In two
canvas boats. Capt Bartlett says
that had Peary had these boats he
would have succeeded in his attempt.
DR.. Cook will take only few Els
kimos and dogs and will relay them in
stations all the way. He will take
substantially the same route as Peary.
1t was found that the Eskimos had
rifled Peary's food caches and even
overturned his boats. Mr.. Bradley
left DR.. Cook a supply for Is months
DR.. Cook from Etah has about 1000
miles to cover. He must return by
the same route-across Smith sound
overland 81 degrees, then over the
fee pack and sea.
The attempt will not be a costly
one. DR.. Cook was guest on Mr.
Bradley's trip and the expenses oil
the Eskimos and dogs will not be ex
cessive.
