to him."
"Croaking trout, you call them?"
queried an attorney.
Il don't know what you call them.

they knew him."
Photographs of Mr.. Nicholson TAX.

MAN NOT MADE OF DUST.
Soap Is Basis Of Human Life, Accord.
ing to Scientist.

New Workman is made of soap
and not of dust, according to state.
ment delivered before the Harvey So
!. ciety at the Academy of Medicine in
this city by Professor j. G.. Adami.
Man is not entirely made of soap,
of course, but there are scattered
through his body an unknown number
,of tiny globules, called "myelins, .
which are now believed to be primi-
tive form of true soap. It is the only
pure type of soap on earth, and scien.
lists say it may be that man was orig
inally constructed on a self-cleansing
principle.
All he had to do was to exercise his
will power, think hard, and set his
:myriads of soap globules in motion.
The soapy nature of human beings has
been discovered by means of the pol
.arizing microscope.
! Professor Adami gave a history of
the curious researches which led up
to the great find" Fifty years ago
Virchow stumbled on the presence of
myelin globules in nearly every tissue
of the body. They were plentiful in
the brain. They dissolved in hot al.

under the polarizing microscope they
had queer cross markings and were,
in reality, liquid crystals" showing
precisely the same markings as soap

NAMES ABANDONED FARMS.
Move to Educate People in PossibiIi-
ties Of Purchasing.


The buying of abandoned farms in
augusta, Me-, by city people, who con-
vert them into summer places, has as
sumed such proportions that it has
been called to the attention of the
state agricultural department. Com
missioner Gilman, who has investi-
gated the subject, says that in his
opinion this movement, if continued.
would materially reduce the total agri-.
cultural output of the state.
In recent years hundreds of rich
New York and Massachusetts, people
have bought up farms and occupied
them during the summer only, cult
waiting only such land as they wished
for the raising of flowers and garden
vegetables. This policy is not in line
with that advocated by the agricul-
tural department. Vigorous efforts
have been made, aided by the anthori-
ties of the University of Maine, to in.
terest rural communities in the possi-
bilities of farming and fruit raising.
Trains have been sent throughout the
country bearing lecturers, who gave
talks to the farmers on scientific agri-
culture. The movement met with a
cordial reception and was supported
by the national agricultural DEPART
ment at Washingt0n.-New York Post.

PIGEON BORE MESSAGE TO NEG.
LEcTFUL LOVER.
Feathered Carrier Killed by Hawk Con:
veyed Plea That Surely Should
Have Touched the Heart Of
Recreant Youth.

Lawton, Okla.-The text of unique
little romance has just been revealed
by the discovery of a dead carrier
pigeon by prospector in the Big Pas
ture. To the pigeons neck was at
tached locket about the size of a,
silver dollar, and inside the locket.
were two pictures, little note and:
slips of paper containing names pre-.
sumed to be those of whom the pic.
lures were made.
The name and address beneath the:
picture of the girl is Grace Deliver, No.,
1867 Clark street, Chicago, while the
name beneath the picture OF the young.
man is Clarence Peckham.
The note read as follows: :.
Dear Clarence: This note may;
never reach you, who are so far away
In the south, but you have neglected;
me so long am heartbroken, and fear:
that my days on earth are few. God
knows, Clarence, love you, and all
during these long, dreary weeks since,
you went away I have wondered why:
you never wrote. If by any means;
this note should reach you, hope that;
1t will remind you of the little girl:
you protested to love, and whose life;
you have blighted" .
The pigeon must have flown from
Chicago bearing the note, and the in;
1icatlons are that the heartbroken girl
dispatched the bird to the southland.
IN search of the boy that deserted her.,
She is fair-haired maiden of about
IL, with big, expressive eyes that look
to be blue. The character of the pic.
ture indicates that the girl belongs to
a good and respectable family in Chi
cago. The young man appears to be!
about 81 years old. The face is that,
Of student or of an actor.
The pigeon was killed by hawk in
the Big Pasture. The little son of a:
lessee observed the fight between them
just after the pigeon had flown from
the brink of pond, where it took,
water. The fight was fierce one,:
and lasted five minutes, and when it,
was over the boy gathered up the:
pigeon and took it home 1t was ex-;
hibited to an Illinois man who wasi
passing through the pasture, and from
him this story has been received.
Ii the hayward young fellow who:
figures in the above reads the story
he should go back to Chicago and com
tort that little girl.

VINTAGE OF PORT IMMENSE.
Good Wine So Plentiful That Poorer
Qualities May Not Be Exported.

Washington.-Such a glut of wine
has been accumulated in Portugal,
owing to succession of good years
in all the vintage provinces, that
growers of the cheaper class of wines
have been unable to find market by
offering their produce under true de.
scription.
Certain of the growers have accord
ingly, a Lisbon correspondent tele-
graphs, resorted to the expedient of
exporting these wines after adultera-
tive treatment under fraudulent de-
Scriptions. This, of course, brings
great injury to exporters of genuine
port. So great is the evil that the
Portuguese government has decided to
try to end it by submitting proposals
to the cortes for commercial conven-
;tions with foreign countries as to Gus
'tomhouse duties, for prohibition of the
export of any but the best Douro vint-
age from the northern seaports, for
strict supervision of the purity of all
exported wines and limitation of the
area of vineyards.
Reports from other countries show
that the French wine harvest is yield
ing one-fifth less in quantity, the
Rhine and Moselle vineyards three
fifths less and the Algerian vineyards
one-fifth less. Quality in all places is
exceptionally good. Prices will there
fore probably rise.
The 1906 wine is the best since the
famous 1898 crop.
