Cincinnati Cor. Of Musical Courier.

Cincinnati Cor. of Musical Courier
This is still the season of outdoor
musical entertainment, furnished by
the concert bands of this country. One
of these, which has been playing an
engagement at Coney Island, has a
particularly fascinating interest, for
it is altogeaher composed of Indians,
genuine Indians The band is COM
posed of thirty men under the direc-
ton of Wheelock, who is himself a
fuE blooded Oneida Indian, although
he is a man of fine general and musi-
cal attainment and of decided refine
ment and culture. One might natur-
ally expect a great deal of noise from
such a band, but the fact is that is
commands a remarkable amount of
sentiment and delicacy. Its tone is
lovely and refined; the rhythm almost
faultless and intonation perfect The
members of the band follow the ba-
ton of their leader instinctively, in
diligently and with a great deal of
enthusiasm. 1t was remarkable with
what ineness and expression the
band played Wagner's Album Blatt,"
in which the leader, too, displayed a
strong classic conception. In rapid
passages of other selections the In
dams played with nerve and intensity.
Particularly grateful was their rendi-
ton of the Tampa" overture
The United States Indian Band,
with Wheelock as director, will be
the attraction ar the Opera House on
Wednesday, Nov % Matinee and
night

THIN FOLKS MADE FAT

Good, healthy flesh can be gained
by the use of the proper food, to-
gether with natural action of the or
gans of assimilation. Nine people out
of ten in order to weigh as much as
they ought and be perfectly healthy
should use Samose, the great flesh
forming food and health restorer
Weigh yourself before commencing
to use these little tablets and see
how your weight increases from
week to week.
Samose deos not contain particle
of starch or pepsin, nor is it a cod
liver oil preparation, such as is US
ually recommended to make people
fat, and which does not build up
good healthy tissues. Samose has
valuable flesh forming properties
tones up and strengthens the whole
system, helps the food that is eaten
to be assinIilated in natural man
ner, and absolutely restores health
to all the organs.
If you are not perfectly satisfied
with the results from Samose, Ded-
sons Pharmacy will return your
money without any questions.

CAT MAKES DAILY
TRIP On TRAIN

New York, Nov. 24-Commuting
has become such fad in New Jer-
sey that even the cats have started to
doing it, One travels between the
Lackawanna station, at Montclair,
and the station in Hoboken every
day, and the other cats have been
seen in the neighborhood of the
tracks looking wistfully at the trains.
The animal which has become a
regular" in passenger trains on the
Montclair branch of the Lackawan-
mas Morris and Essex division is a
maltese. No one knows who owns
it nor what its object is in making
daily trips to Hoboken. Suggestion
is made here that perhaps there is
a Maria cat in Hoboken which has
east a spell over the Montclair cat
or that rats in the McAdoo tunnel
are the attraction. Whatever it is,
the maltese usually leaves here in a
train between $3.50 and 8 o'clock, and
returns home in another train before
in the evening There are times
when it reaches the station about
daylight and boards an early train.
Why the schedule is changed no one
can explain, and the cat is wholly
uncommunicative
Stock brokers and other commuters
have become interested in the animal,
and the tfainmen make a pet of it.
1t never tries to get into a train
until the cars have stopped. nor to
get off a train in motion. Trainmen
say it never has been carried by its
station, and that in that respect ii
is more intelligent than many of the
| twO-Ipoqad commuters

Growing CobIess Corn.

And now 1t is the coDless corn. A
year ago H. ]. Sconce and Taylor
Garlough of Vermillion county, pur-
chased a quantity of seed corn in In
diana In the shipment was freak
ear, which instead of the ordinary
cob, had a core of husk, the grains
being neatly wrapped on the soft
foundation like peas in a pod Mr..
Sconce was impressed with the novel;
ty of the field, and decided to plant
all the kernels found on the freak
ear, to his surprise, the ears pro-
duced this fall were found to be ex-
act reproductions of the single ear.
He has decided to plant more of the
corn next year, and will endeavor to
improve it.
The ears produced this year yield
ed as much corn as those provided
with cobs, while the kernels were
large and solid. The ears were well
filed, kernels even growing among
the silk. The freak ears were placed
on exhibition at country fair at Sid
ell last week, and attracted much
attention

THIS STORY is SALTY
But LIKELY is TRUE

At the Seaboard's terminal in Saw
annah cargo of salt is being un-
loaded in quantity sufficient to save
the country, being the largest ever
brought to Georgia The quantity is
SOP 900 pounds. being 1850 gross
tons, or 1886 net tons OF 1000
pounds, equal to 453 carloads of ten
tons each. If these cars were sent
out in trains of twenty cars each
they would make twenty-five trains,
and if run thirteen miles apart the
line would extend from Savannah to
Atlanta; or if made up into one train
it would extend 3 So miles.
