VALUE OF OLD GLASS.
Philadelphia Eye Specialists Find vir.

Philadelphia Eye Specialists Find vir.
tues In Amethyst Tinted Lenses.
A discovery Of great value to those
whose sight has been impaired by
working under artificial light has been
made in Philadelphia. 1t was learned
the other day that amethyst tinted
lenses made from window pane glass
taken from houses in Walnut street
would cure blindness caused by work
ing on bright metal and under artif1-
cial light. This glass is simply ordi-
nary window panes that have been in
use for more than seventy-f1ve years.
In that time it has been turned an
amethyst tint by the direct rays of the
sun.
Philadelphia eye specialists are opti-
mistic in their contentious for the
glass, which is termed by the oculists
and opticians 1.-The Philadelphia glass;
Some of the most widely known physi-
clans in Philadelphia are using it in
their daily practice and say that it has
proved wonderfully effective and that
the eye disorders that it win relieve
and cure are many.

The Quarles home ana its hospi-
tally were also the subject for the
aging romancers. as was the marvel
Gus beauty of Miss Arzelia Penn, who
captivated the heart of the great hui
morist.
The house in Florida, Mo-, in
which Mark Twain was born, and
which he alleges he was left and for
gotten when the family moved to
Hannibal, was torn down by a local
syndicate and souvenir canes made
from the wood and sold at the Lou
isiana Exposition at St. Louis in
1904, an act of vandalism which loyal
residents of nlonroe county have
never forgiven.
Mark Twain's mother is described
by the older men who knew her as
a rugged, forcefu4 looking woman
with black hair worn in the cork
screw curls prevailing at the time.
Probably the best joke that ever
happened at the great humorist's ex-
pense occurred eight years ago when
he passed through Monroe county
on his way from Hannibal to COL
umbia. He was on Missouri, Kan
sas & Texas local passenger train,
and the trip across the county was
triumph, hundreds of people gath
ering at the different stations to
see and shake hands with him. At
Paris there were 1000.
A week prior there had occurred
here at the county seat the only
lynching in the history of the county.
A man named Witherup had killed
a boy named Grow, cut his body up,
placed it in a sack and hauled it to
the river three miles distant. The
friends of the boys family organized
a mob, which the citizens and the
officers alike considered a joke, and
after watching it parley around I'M
til midnight without doing anything,
all the spectators, save the more
curious and a few small boys, street
gamins, went to bed. At one O'Clock
the mob overpowered the sheriff and
broke into the Jail. The prisoner
was dragged from his cell, and as
the tall and gaunt form was passed
by strong arms out into the moon
light the boys who were perched on
a coal shed near the Jail door cried
out: Here he comes! Here he
This was answered by men on the
outskirts Of the crowd with the
shout: "Get rope! Get a rope!"
and the murderer was finally taken
to a bridge near town and hanged.
When Marks train slipped into
Paris some of these same gamins
were perchei on box cars on tho
sidetrack. The crowd thought the
visitor would appear
On the steps between the chair car
and the smoker, and surged that
way. He did not appear, however,
and disappointment was keen, until !
someone at the rear Of the train
caught sight Of him coming out and
shouted, Here he come!s Here he
oomes!'' Immediately above the
COMMISSIONS and noise arose the shout
Of one of the gamins, "Get a rope!
Get rope!"

INTIMATE HISTORY OF
THE LATE MARK TWAIN

Gen. Ben Butler, and was the origi-
nal of Tom Sawyer He grew up
into a handsome man and was an
adventurer of type especially
popular with women, one story hav-
ing it that while in Egypt he per-
suaded a Russian duchess to fall in
love with him and succeeded in get
ting hold Of her jewels, which he
never returned.
1T was Tom Blankenship, whom
my mother and Mrs. Robards dress
ed up in clothes belonging to my
self and John Richards and sent to
the Campbellite Sunday school,, as
Campbell was holding a big revival
in Hannibal at the time, and Marx
Twain says Tom finally went back
to his sugar hogsheads to sleep, but
he didn't. Indian joe was in real
ity a Mulatto belonging to the Flu
quas, and they finally believed he
was half Indian"
Despite the prediction of those
who were annoyed by the mischiev-
BUSINESS of Tom Sawyer's gang that
it's members all would land in the
penitentiary, it is interesting to note
that Mr.. Clemens became one or
Americas foremost men OF letters
and one of the worlds greatest hui
morists; Frank l.. Pitts lost an arm
leading a Confederate charge on the
field of battle and became state
treasurer of Missouri; Sidney
Haines was adjutant general of Col
orado; George Butler was Ameri-
can consul to Egypt during Grants
administration, and Robert N. b.
dine served with distinction as con-
gresham from the second district
of Missouri.
"reminiscences have been rife at
Paris all day and one by one the
Clemens family have been recalled.
Chief among them was Miss Nancy
Clemens, his sister, who taught mu-
sic at Paris for time in the days
when "Hael Dell" and "The Maid
