Character in FINGER Nails.

One Of the latest society fads is reading
character by the finger nails. Here are
some OF the rules:
Long Nails-When the nails are long the
person is good natured. but placing little
confidence in others.
Narrow Nails-The person with such
nails Is DESTROYS of attaining knowledge
In the sciences. but is never at peace long
with her ~neighbors.
Never employ a penknife to clean the
nails. A soft stick. rounded. not pointed.
should be used. This should be also en-
ployed to push down the flesh which grows
at the base of the nail.
Broad Nails-They who have their nails
broad are Of a gentle disposition, bashful
and afraid OF speaking before their SUI
periors. or. indeed, to anyone without hest
tation and a downcast air.
Little N~ails-Little round nails discover
a person to be ~obstinately angry. seldom
pleased. inclining to hate everyone a.
concciving himself superior to others.

'Gharity" Scandal.

New York, May 21-Two unusual
considerations mark verdict for 500.
900 for the loss of an eye, won by
John Andruszis in his suit against the
Philadelphia & Reading Coal and Iron
company. One is that although the
injury was sustained at Girardville.
Pa, the case was tried in Richmond
county, New York.
The other is that this is the first
verdict under the employers liability
act of Pennsylvania, which law gov
erned the New York court.
Andriuszis asserted that he was en-
ployed by a superintendent of the
company, who directed him to obey
the orders of certain foreman There
was an unexploded blast of dynamite
in the mine, and the foreman set of
another blast to discharge it. After the
explosion, and without inspection, the
foreman sent Andriuszis to clean cut
the place. His shovel struck the dyna
mite, causing his injury.
The company maintained that the
foreman was an Independent contrac-
tor, and that therefore the company
was not liable. NJ Spencer Bevins.
plaintiffs attorney, contended that it
was a question of fact for the jury to
find whether the plaintiff was en-
ployed by the company or the con
tractor. Justice Kapper left this ques
tion to the jury.
