African Mission.
From Judge.

TfOfn JuuSe-
 It was with much pleasure that Judge learned the other day that there is to be no unnecessary bloodshed in that famous African caepaign. Your true sportsman is not really a lover of ruthless killing and while the shooting of wild animals with cameras is not thrilling, it has most excellent points. Judge has learned, upon good authority, that one interesting feature of the shooting will be on behalf of the reformed spelling movement. The distinguished huntsman will endeavor he encounters, but if he meets a gnu, for from an etymoogical point of view by shooting off his unnecessary "g.' When he encounters a rhinoceros he will pink him on the superfluous 'h while chance leopard, by a well-directed load of buclkshot, will have his redundant 70" cut out of his midst. It is by forming words out of these eliminated letters that the h,lntsman will trebly earn that seem- ingly large stipend that lies on the other side of his naseent paragraphs so eagerly awaited by the American public. While on this subject Judge desires to express his abhorrence of those llbel-loving per sons who aver that the taxidermist in charge will stuff the speci:2ens designed to be sent to the Smithsonian instiutu- ton with copies of the presidential mes sages of 1907-08. This is surely one more of those picaylne little pin-pricks from a pernicious press prepared/to poster the past president with a paltry pabulum of painful piffe.

NibbIes at Judges Hook.
From Judge.

From JuuSe.
 That was not an airship that was seen floating over New York the other day, but lady from a New Jersey suburb, who came to town on shopping bent, wearing a hamper-hat. The wind play ing about the Flatiron building got un- der the hat, and there you are.
 It Is a good thing to be particular in this world, but one cannot help thinking that the man who objected to the ocean because It's waves were not mraceled was carrying 1t too far. He would prob ably find fault because the girls along the Jersey beaches did not all have san dy hair.
 A man out west. out of sheer curiosity, looked into the dictionary the other day to see what was the last word, but he found 1t futile quest. His wife had got there before him and taken it.
 One of our esteemed contemporaries published an informing article the other day on the college-bred girl. This Is all well enough but what the young man of today wants to know about is not the college-bred girl, but the college-girl bread. The girl herself is doubtless good enough to eat, but how about her bak- ing?

CHEMISTS SHOW LATEST NOVELTY Pain 9eStrOyerS And Array 0
 5eautifiers ARE IN THE EXHIBIT Specifics of All Kinds in London Show. EIixirs of Joy and Life Side
 By Side With Teeth
 Ing Rings.
 
l ARE IN THE EXHIBIT

London, June 5.-London has a novelty in the shape of a chemists exhibition. Soaps and perfumes, antiseptics and drugs, powder puffs and teething rings and all the familiar stock articles of the chemists counter form the bulk of the display, but there are one or two feat ures of the exhibition which are of spe- eial interest.
 Any one desiring to learn how to be- come beautiful, how to conquer pain, and how to live for a century, the three greatest of human desiderata. may find the specifics in this curious show AL chemy and magic made no higher claims for their elixirs and charms than does modern chemistry. The word "pain," 1t appears, may be removed from the next new dictionary since it refers to condition which no longer exists.
 There is hardly a known ache or pain for which a special anaesthetio does not exist. At one stall may be seen colorless fluid combinations of CO., caine, eucaine and adrenolin, which elim- mate pain from surgical operations. The exquisite agony of sea-sickness is no longer the preliminary ordeal to an ocean trip. There are half a dozen specifics put up in Waistcoat pocket packages whose effect, it is claimed, is that the choppiest of channels will give to the voyager no more disagreeable sensation than an appetite for chops.
 There are instant cures for a head ache, magic potions for earache, immed- fate remedies for every other kind of ache. Such preparations as these since they remove pain, may be called eliXirs of joy. But there are more potent prepa- rations, for if all that is claimed for them is true, they are yeritable elixrs of life itself. It Is tactic acid which is to enable the human body to withstand the process of decay so that a man can live as long as he has money left to buy tube of tactic tablets.
 Into a single tiny tablet are compressed 5O0,0O0 of these miero-organisms, which of all the dumb creatures in nature are the friendliest and most benefcent to man kind. Their function is to make war upon and exterminate all the hostile and baneful bacilli which, lurking within a man, work their evil ways and cause him to develop indigestion and to grow old be- fore his time.

NOTHING SUCCEEDS
 LIKE SUCCESS


 While the newspapers of Birmingham have been doing noble service for many months past toward the restoration of business confidence and aiding the return of prosperity to this district, others have allowed themselves to become apostles of pessimism and in a degree have counter acted the good work the newspapers have been doing for this oity and section.
 Knowing that there is no other district in the known world where iron can be produced more economically than here, and that>this product must be had to meet the demands of the worlds progress, no one should be pessimist or 'lxnocker'' in Birmingham. This city is only on the threshold of its possibilities and no higher duty rests upon its citi- zens than to recognize this fact and bravely work for it's fulfillment, each in his own sphere and all for the general welfare.

THEY'RE UPLIFTING
 ART AT PITTSBURG
BY IRWIN S. COBB.

what an art training will do for a per son. What did you say she was by nationality? Oh, yes, a nude, reg ular nude right here in Pittsburg! We'll what do you know about that? That's what they said at first, but soon their feelings mastered them, and strong men could be heard muttering: Where's the infamous scoundrel who perpretrated this outrage on our fair city and didn't tell us a word about it.? Show him to us.'
 Such, Larry, was the voice of Pitts burg, indeed of Greater Pittsburg, which includes Alleghany and other suburbs not so large perhaps, but equally smoky. An indignant and in- furiated, I might even say a mad dened populace, called upon this man Sauter to stand up and explain before the situation got beyond the control of the police authorities. Mob spirit seemed rife, whatever that is. Already from the rear of the crowd there were loud cries of Lynch him!' and, Get rope? which is where those cries usu T. ly come from in such cases, as rse often noticed The further back the party, the louder his cry.
 Well Sauter, the low scoundrel, tried to square himself, but 1t was a Dum JOD. Hd1nterS are not usually fluent takers. except when talking about themselves. He tried to excuse himself by saying the young lady in the picture had just been taking bath and he didn't think it would be the proper thing to show a well-raised girl coming out of the bath tub VII all her clothes on and maybe a pair of gum boots The young woman of my picture Is no deep sea diver, says Sauter. She's a bride "
 But they told how very improper, to say the least it was to surprise a young woman just after she'd got the soap off and before she got anything else on, and how much more improper to bring tho life-size result of his nefarious observa- on display. They didn't lynch him out right. but it was close call and ought to be warning to all such"
 ''Its a strage thing, Larry, this art purity movement, a derned strange thing if you'll excuse my language. The an- cient Greeks and Romans couldn't see anything wrong in the human form di- vine. but l guess they weren't as pure minded as we are. They never enjoyed the advantage of being born in the same century with Anthony Comstock and the Eastern Art league of Pittsburg And yet in spite of all the teachings of these people that are an even 100 per cent pure, we still stand for the nude in some things. Personally, I've always taken my as- paragus bare, although some prefer the French dressing. l wouldn't think of biting any banana any way except a naked banana, and I never heard of any body who objected to nude egg, if it was

Stretching a Joke.

Once there was a country boy, who came to the city to forge his way in the world.
 He secured a position in a wholesale grocery, working conscientiously and faithfully. By stint and sacrifice he saved a nice portion of his earnings, un- til at the end of two years he had about $200 in the bank to his credit.
 Coincident with this date chronicled above a well dressed and smooth talking agent of a Nevada gold-mining company came along and met the country boy. After some clever descriptions regarding the marvels of wealth buried in the shaft of a certain mountain and the immense quantities of glittering treasures dragged

GERMANY INTERESTED
 IN AERIAL NAVIGATION
By MALCOLM CLARK.

Berlin, June 5.-After the many fantas- tic schemes of aerial communication which have been propounded by more or less irresponsible persons. it is pleasant to have a little authentic information as to what the immediate developments in this direction are likely to be.
 This was afforded in a lecture given the other evening at Strassburg by Herr Co.'s mann. president of the company which is building the Zeppelin airships. He began his remarks with a complaint against the German war department which has de- elined to order any more Zeppelin air. ships from the company until certain con- ditions have been fulfilled, probably due to the fact that the technical adviser of the government is an inventor and build CT of drigibles himself and firm be- liever in the semi-rigid system.
 The lecturer said that it is not intended to make use of the Zeppelin airship at the great imperial maneuvers this fall and that the war department, though not at present buying more vessels of this type itself was prepared to subsidize pas senger lines.
 Failing to find direct market for mili- tary purposes, he said the company had been forced to turn to municipalities and the public, and the cities of ColoEne and Dusseldorf had already promised to sup port a scheme of regular passenger ser vices with contributions of $125000 each.
 At present 1t was not intended, how ever to attempt to establish regular pas- senger service. but rather a series of sporting excursions. It was proposed to have three vessels in use. Later it was hoped to make journeys to Munich and Berlin.
 The new airships of which it was hoped to have four ready inside a year would have more powerful motors than the Zep- pelln, and would be able to make head way against winds of the velocity of that which prevented the first landing at- tempted at Munich.
 It was calculated that it would be pos sible to make trips on at least 300 days ! year, and they expected to be able to make 500 annually with three vessels. The cost of running them including wages, would be s425O0O annually. Each vessel would carry a crew of six men and 20 passengers.
 A report was current yesterday in Ber- lin that the Arch Duke Karl Franz Joseph of Austria, who is next heir to his uncle the heir-presumptiye to the Austrian crown was about to be betrothed to Princess Louise Victoria of Prussia, only daughter of the Kaiser. The report also found it's way into the papers.
 It is officially declared that nothing is known of such an intention, but there is good reason to believe that the engage ment was nevertheless arranged between the Kaiser and Emperor Francis Joseph during the formers visit to Vienna.
 It is recalled that some years ago a rumor was prevalent that the German

Her Answer.

From the Atichison Globe.
 An Atchison girl had a proposal of marriage Sunday night, and asked a week to think 1t over She went to all her mar ried sisters. One, who used to be a belle, had three children, did all her own work, and hadn't seen a theatre or out riding since she was married. Another, whose husband was a promising young man at the time she was married, was supporting him. A third didn't dare say her life was her own when her husband was around, and a fourth was divorced. After visiting them and hearing their woes, the her oine of this little tale went home, got pen and ink and paper, and wrote an an- swer to the young man. You may think it was refusing him, but it wasn't. She said she would be ready in a month.

 Having decreed that a woman must be polite to her husband, a learned judge immediately was accosted by one of the sex.
 Your decision might fix some cases,' she admitted but when the husband has forgotten to mail her letters, speaks un- seemly of her D-other and without warn- ing brings a friend home to dinner?"

is the Queenstown company, which stands for diversified industries and which has steadily pursued this one object until it has passed the stage of experiment and now stands on the pinnacle of success.
 Its sales have been phenomenal. Its collectiors~ are being made with remark able promptness, thus placing the com pany where 1t can accomplish it's plans and purposes. Every one here has real ized from the outset that industries would give value to this property and protect it's stockholders, and as its sales now render industries a certainty, 1t can read fly be understood why it is now claimed that the enterprise is a success. Of course there is much yet to be done, but 1t is now on an entirely different basis as an advance in price will soon be made and investors who have not gotten in on the ground floor at present prices will have only themselves to blame.

with an Austrian Arehduehess. It was stated that in such case the Archduch- ess would conform to the creed of her intended husband. The matter is this time reversed, but it Is hardly to be sup posed that Hohenzollern Princess would enter the Catholic Chureheleven with the prospect of becoming one day Empress of Austria.
 Full details are published in the Vienna papers today of the career of "ehevalier' Hoffman who died the other day and who was regarded as one of the most successful swindlers in Europe.
 The Vienna and Budapest authorities were quite recently engaged in searching for the heir of a supposed Baron Courier de Denmark. who died in Madrid leaving his fortune to relative in Pressburg This relative did not exist, and it was es- tablished that the Baron was the fam ous international swindler, Karl Hoffman,
 His career was a romance in swndling. The son of a Karlsbad glassmaker, he fled to England to escape military service subsequently proceeding to the United States, where he led an adventurous life and returned to Europe
 He resided in Karlsbad for a short pe- riod, representing himself as an officer in Queen Vietorias lifeguards. In 1S06 he married the daughter of a wealthy Rus
  after the death of his father-in-law he found that nothing had been left to him or his wife.
 Going to Berlin he represented himself as the trusted friend of Bis marck, and returning to London posed as the nephew of the Austrian minister of finance, Baron Hoffman, and con- tracted a debt in the latter's name. He entered into a contract with a Manches- fer firm f0 whom he stated that he had obtained a franchise to build a railroad from Unterdrauburg to Wolfsberg, and managed to obtain from the firm 300,0 GOO gulden, paid through the Anglo-Austrian bank. This money was supposed to be deposited as a guarantee.
 Returning to Vienna in 1877 he bought horses and carriages and played prom inent part on the turf. Still representing himself as a nephew of the minister of finance he duped numerous persons. Meanwhile the Manchester firm heard of his doings and succeeded in removing 24O,0o0 1orins from the Austrian bank.
 Hoffman again fled to England. At Glasgow he entered into a contract with a shipbuilding firm to build a yacht for Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria, but the firm discovered the swindle and did not finish the building of the yacht.
 Nevertheless he succeeded in making the firm believe that he was a high and noble parsonage and by giving an order in the name of the Crown Prince, now the King of Roumania, succeeded in ob taining a commission of $S000 from the firm. As a result of this swindle he left England and returned to Vienna, where he swindled right and left and was ar rested in 1882
 After trial lasting seven days he was found guilty and sentenced to seven years hard labor.
