THE ECCENTRIC SHAH.
Interesting Peculiarities of the Late
 Ruler of Persia.
From the Chicago News.

From the Chicago News.
 Muzaffar ed Din, the late Shaw of Per- sia, had many interesting peculiarities which are told by the authors of "Queer Things About Persia: He was nervous in the presence of Europeans. He used to stand with one hand on his scimitar and stroke his enormous mustache with the other in order to maintain his com posture. As has been said, he used to utter some platitudes, such as: Thank God we have had fortunate year. Rain has been plentiful, and we hope that God will make the harvest abundant If he was in genial mood he inquired after the respective sovereigns: What are they all doing? Has the King of England won the yachting race? Has the Kaiser killed many deer? Was the Sultan of Turkey pleased with the present I sent him re- gently? How is the Czar? To which the Russian minister replied with forced po- likeness. How can he be anything else but well since he is noticed by your majesty?
 "Muzaffar ed Din was a good man. His court was paved with good intentions which he had not sufficient energy to carry out. Unlike his ancestors, he hated bloodshed, and while he was on the throne instances of capital punishment were rare. Though he was a great sports man, fine shot who could hit with a rife coin thrown in the air. he was as humane to animals as he was to hu- man beings. Muzaffar ed Din was very fond of music. He detested thunder Whenever 1t thundered he used to take refuge in a vault where the noise was drowned and had a mulah, especially ap- pointed for the purpose, to calm his mis- givings.
 Not long ago among the new things from Europe were little canoes in rub Der which were blown out and took the shape of a boat The Shah was very interested They were tried on the lake of palace. Four fat nobles were em- parked in one who's valve was partly opened, and the boat was pushed from land. It slowly sank till its occupants were left laundering in the water. The Shah enjoyed himself vastly, especially when they were brought out looking as drenched seals. The poor men, though they got rheumatism, were delighted to have made the Shah laugh. They received pensions on the spot.
 'IIe was much interested in photo graphy He instituted a photographer of state, who received 5000 year and was expected to buy every new patent that came out Muzaffar ed Din was photo- graphed every half hour. If he saw European with a camera in the street he used to stop to let him take his photo- graph. Every kind of machinery, from the most important invention to penny toys, interested him. It was characters- tic of him to pay no more attention to Marconfs discovery than to a shilling automatic toy."

GEORGIA EDITORS
 MAY YET RIDE FREE
COMMISSION DECIDES THAT
 NEWSPAPERS MAY SWAP ADJ
 vERTIsING SPACE FOR TRANS FORMATION ON BUSINESS BASIS.

Atlanta, January 26.-Newspaper pub country weeklies and seni-weeklies, have been much exercised over what construc- tion to place on the railroad commissions order prohibiting the issuance of free passes and franks.
 Not a few editors of these papers have find out whether tlwould be permissible for them to continue to exchange adver- Using for transportation, as they have long been accustomed to do. Many of them were under the fear that this meth cd of getting transportation would be cut off, and knowing that they could hardly expect to get as much out of the railroads in the shape Of cash, as a rule they were naturally not little perturbed.
 The commission has relieved the minds of all those who have applied to it for information on this point however. by taking the position that the newspapers may exchange advertising for transporta- tion, provided it does so upon cash basis. In other words, the newspaper must set off the advertising at it's regular rates to other patrons, against the transporta- ton used at the regular rates charged the public by the railroads, and If this is done the commissions rule will not be violated.
 The swapping of advertising for trans portation is likely, therefore, to continue for some time to come.

AUBURN DEFEATS
 BESSEMER IN GAME

BeSSemer, January 2O.-(Special. )-Tne basketball team from Auburn defeated Bessemer last night in remarkably fast and exciting contest. The final score was 34 to 1S. The first half ended in Auburn $ favor, 14-S.
 In the beginning, when Bessemer was the first to score, local enthusiasts, dreaming of probable victory, were en- couraged to strenuous ''rooting" Even when the first half ended the locals had not given up hope. In the second half, however, Auburn recovered it's breath, and walked away with the game. The locals did well to score.
 The excitement throughout the strug- gle was intense, and the enthusiasm was rampant. Lacey was the star for Besse- mer. Woodruff and Ware starred for Auburn. The game was clean throughout, very few fouls being charged to either side.
 The following are the points credited to the players Auburn: Ware IA. Wood ruff 1i. Dryer 4, Currie 2. Bessemer: Lacey 8, Johnston 4, Huston l.
 The teams lined up in this fashion:
 Auburn-Locke. Mcclure, Harris, guards; Ware, center; Woodruff. Dryer and Cur rie. forwards.
 Bessemer-Lacey and Hurd guards; Huston. center; Johnston and Mcconnell, forwards.

LARGE FIRE LOSS
 AT PORTLAND, ME.
WHOLESALE DRY GOODS AND SHOE ESTABLISHMENTS ARE TOTALLY DESTROYED LOSS MORE THAN $soo,ooo.

Portland, Me-, January 26.-The whole sale dry goods establishment of Miliken, Cousins & Company, was burned to- night. The adjacent store, occupied by A. F. Cox 6 Son, wholesale shoe dealers, was damaged by water and smoke. The loss Is estimated at s5O0.0O0.
 Despite the work of the firemen, the flames ate their way down through the fourth and third floors of the Cox build inf. guttng them completely.
 The four-story brick building of Far ker, Thomas & Company, wholesale dry and fancy goods next door below the Milliken- Deering block and separated by 3O-foot private alley, was seriously threatened by the falling wall of the burn ing building on that side. Parker, Thomas & Company carry a stock valued at $5OO00O and fully insured.
 The newly erected four-story brick block on Market street in the rear of the burned block, occupied entirely by Russ. Eveleth & Company. wholesale deal CTS in dry goods and notions, was also threatened.
 At a. n the fire was still confined to the burned block.
 Aid has been asked for from Boston, Dover, N. H., Portsmouth, N. H., and a. number of Maine cities, as 1t was feared the blaze would get beyond control.
 After the fire was apparently under. control 1t broke out afresh in the roof of the A. F. Cox & Son shoe establishment. Before additional lines of hose could be run up the entire roof was ablaze at ? a. m. and it seems that this part of the block with its wholesale stock of shoes, said to be worth s25oOOo would be burned.
 At a. m. it was thought possible that if the remaining walls of the Milliken- Deerlng block did not collapse, the flames would be confined to that building. As the upper floors of the block were not loaded down with heavy materials, it was hoped that the walls would stand.
 Mayor Adam P. Leighton, who tele- phoned to Boston, Dover, Portsmouth and other cities for help, says he did so as measure of precaution in view of the exceedingly threatening aspect of the fire at a. m.
 At 3:45 a. m. the fire was apparently under control. The request for aid from Boston and other cities was countermand- ed. The losses include the following.
 Milliken. Cousins & Co.,, $435000; A. F. Cox & Co.,, building, $2s5,O00; Parker. Thomas & Co., damage to stock by water and smoke, s10o.000. Other smaller losses by smoke and water, s100000.

JOSEPHINE MALONE'S
 DEATH A MYSTERY
IT IS QUESTION AS TO WHETHER CASE IS ONE OF MURDER OR SUlClDE-FRlENDs DISRELlEvE SUICIDE THEORY.

Janesville, Wis, January 26.-Whether Josephine Malone was murdered or eom- mited suicide. promises to be a mystery as deep as that of Madeline Clayton, whose body was found a few hundred years from the spot where that of Miss Malone was dragged from the river to- day. There is a difference between the two cases. Madeline Clayton not having met death by drowning, but was placed in the water after life was evtinct, &C., cording to physicians, while Miss Malone was drowned
 The autopsy this afternoon failed to show any signs of violence upon the body beyond a slight abrasion of the skin at the throat, which might have been made by her collar. Were it not for the pos tive testimony of her friends, the case would be con. i.ered one of suicide or accidental L. |. but they insist she mad no cause io ,.--e her fife and could not have wands. ed .ato the river by accident. Michael Hayes. wealthy contractor and president of local bank at whose home she spent the evening, insists she never took her life. Her conversation during the evening spent at cards, or the press ing invitation to his family to come to her apartments to play cards the com ing week and her absolute freedom from care all make the suicide theory in his mind, impossible.
 Two of Miss Malone's assistats re- peat story of an attempted assault upon the dead woman some two weeks ago while crossing Court street bridge after dark, which she related to them the next morning, warning them not to go in that nedghborhood alone at night.

Dream of Science ReaIizedY

dream of science, which has been cherished for ages, has recently come SO close to realization that the world has had a start, as it were. The artificial pro- duction of life, at which experimenters have aimed, almost since men first enter ed into any extended knowledge of the elements and of chemical action, appears to have been all but accomplished, and while the man who has conducted the experiments which have shown such re- markable results, makes no loud acclaim over his discovery, he points to the work he has done and we can but wonder at it..
 Artificial plants have been produced in test tubes by Professor Leduc of Nantes. France, as well as artificial seaweed pro- duced from an artificial cell, also the cul- ture of single artificial grain. Artificial organs showing mushroom shape are of tremendous interest as well as the liquid cell tissues.
 This French scientist, professor in "TEcole de Medicine de Nantes" has ob- tained these curious artificial plants, cells and tissues from cane sugar, copper sul- phate and potassium Ferrocyanide, and although they are composed of inert mat ter, these interesting objects sprout. branch and nourish themselves like actual living organisms.
 The writer discusses at length the work of Professor Leduc along this line and scme very interesting photographs are reproduced tn illustration.

SH|PWRECK TALES
 BROUGHT ID PORT Related and Tempest Tossed
 Steamships Arrive
SCHOONER MAY BE LOST
When Last Seen Three-masted Vessel Was Struggling BraVely, but Float
 Ing Wreckage Seen Later h. dieates Loss of Vessel.

New York, January 26-Tales of a ship wreck at sea and possible loss of life are the echoes of the recent severe storm that were brought to port today by belated and tempest-tossed steamships
 Fears that an unknown three -masted schooner with her crew, has been lost in the storm off the Delaware capes. are expressed by officers of the steamer Mama Hata, which limped into the har- bor today from Baltimore. The schooner was seen struggling in the trough of the sea off the Delaware capes, and when the Mama Hata, which had been blown off her course, neared the locality where the schooner was last sighted riding out the storm, many pieces of a wrecked ves- sel and quantities of railroad ties were seen floating in the water. Captain Charles of the Mama Hata further re- ports that the winter quarter shoal light ship probably has broken loose from her moorings, as the light vessel was not sighted in it's accustomed position.
 The Italian steamer San Giovanni reached here today with Captain Morse and the crew of five of the oil barge Matanzas, which with two others in tow of the tug Concord, from Philadel- phia for Boston, broke adrift during the storm and for hours was at the mercy of the waves, which wrenched off the rudder and opened her seams. The Matanzas was filling rapidly when the Italian mer- chantman hove in sight and rescued Cap tain Morse and his crew. The barges Fall River and Grafton arc still missing. The battered superstructures of transatlantic liners arriving here today were mute evil dence of the assaults of raging seas en- countered in the storm, while incoming vessels in the coastwise and lesser trades all report incessant battles with waves that kept the decks in a smother of spun and spindrift and knocked angrily at the battened matches.
 The Dutch steamship Prins Willem V, from West Indian ports, arriving tonight, had turbulent trip. The hurricane struck the Prinz Willem V m January %, and the waves smashed the decks, carried away the life boats and loosened the steering gear. The steamship was stopped for eight hours while repairs were made. The White Star steamship Georgic, from Liverpool, showed the effects of a rough voyage. Captain Thomas Kidwel of the Georgic, died from pneumonia during the voyage.
 A wireless dispatch received here to- night from the steamship Mauretania ot ,the Cunard line. which left here yester. day stated that the barge Fall River which was in tow behind the Mantanzas was sighted by the Cunarder today anc that Captain Tylor of the Fall River anc his crew were picked up and taken tC Liverpool.

New Orleans Arrives.

Philadelphia, January zo.--After battling in the storm that swept the Atlantic coast Thursday and Friday the steamer New Orleans from Fall River, Mass, ar rived here today, two days overdue The captain of the steamer reports having passed the steamer Chatahoochee, bound from Savannah for New York, towing the winter quarters lightship which had been blown from her moorings.
 The steamer Frederick from Savannah, which also reached here today, Is reported to have had a hard time in the storm. Captain Tyler says that lightships and buoys all the way down the coast are out of place.
