the curl Of hair in her left ear, attach

Gerard Honthorst, was engraved by G.

Of Anne, wife of King James l., was
afflicted by a malady, still prevalent IN
Poland and some parts of Russia
which consists of growth Of hair and

it is dangerous to operate owing to the
profuse hemorrhage which ensues. He

VOTED TO STRIKE.

A great mass meeting OF railway en-
dloyes was held in Gublin Fort and
resolution in favor of general strike on
Southern and Western the Great North
ern and the Midland Great Western, the
three principle railways in Ireand was
adopted. So serious do the authorities
regard the situation that all the Dublin
regiments which are absent on practice,
have deem ordered to returned to the city
Little violence has yet been reported.
&:The question an increase in wages or
shorter hours does not enter into the
presents trouble. The men have made
no demands in this direction. The
strike is due to the refusal of the three
railways to the demands of their en-
ployes that the railways decline to handle
consignmeuts !of timber from firms
involed in disputes with their employees.
The decision to call general strike
was anticipated by railway men, espec-
tally those connected with the Great
Southern and Western, with which the
trouble originated.
Enormous quantities Of agricultural
produce, eggs, poultry and other
perishable freight have accumulated at
the Northwall station, the company be-
ing utterly unable to handle the incom-
ing supplies.
At Queenstown yesterday afternoon
the whole station staff, with the excep-
ton of the station master, quit work
and the same thing happenad at Cork,
completely tieing up traffic.

The Pilot Fish.

A little fish about which many inter
esting fancies cluster is the pilot fish
Aelian tells us that pilot fishes were
supposed to be kindly disposed toward
sailors and therefore liked to approach
ships, which they continued with and
guided until they reached land. They
were deemed sacred to Neptune, the
god Of the ocean, who protected them
from designed injury; consequently a
man who had ventured to eat one soon
afterward lost his son by drowning.
Apollo was said to have changed a
fisherman named Pompilus, who had
crossed him in his loves, into q pilot
fish and condemned him for all eternt.
t. to the task Of gratuitous pilotage.
He is also said to be pilot Of sharks
and is said to warn the latter away
from baited hooks and other dangers
and lead them to food. There really
does exist strange bond Of friendship
between the huge shark and this little
member Of the mackerel family, which
are often to be seen travelling together,
although the pilot fsh's supposed care
to warn its companion Of impending
danger and to provide food for 1t Is
fallacy pure and simple.

Two Collars on a Dog.

Having bought dog that he admlr-
ed, a man undertook to buy dog col
lar The dog had a neck nearly as Dig
as his head, and the dealer advised the
man to buy two collars.
"What for?" said the man. Hes
only got one neck, SO I guess he can
get along with only one collar, can't

maybe So" said the man, so the
man went away leadingthe dog by his
new collar and chain. In less than a
week he brought the dog back.
"I'm afraid l can't keep him." he
said. "He IS too obstreperous. / can
keep him tied up. His neck is the big
gest part Of him, and he is as strong
as an OK, therefore it Is cinch for
him to slip his collar off,"
'That was why wanted you to take
two collars" said the dealer. Put
both on and fasten the chain to the
back collar, and he can tug away all
night without getting loose. He may
commit suicide, but he won't get
loose."-New York Sun.

The Coming Election in Canada.

Ottawa, Ont, Sept. 19.-The general
elections in Canada, with reciprocity
the issue, are now but two days away.
The fight is at its iercest, and person
alities are becoming the order OF the
campaign. Each side is accusing the
other of preparing to win by hook or
crook.
Speaking at Ottawa last night, Sir
Wilfrid Laurier declared hatreciproclty
in natural products would benefit the
farmer without injuring the manufact-
urer. 1t the manufacturer denied the
farmer what heRwanted, he would be
creating hostile power from which no
government could protect him. He
would, said the premier, be preparing
rod for his own back.
Some of the papers put the issue IN
very striking way. Here is the way
the Toronto World represents it under
the caption which ?"

INSANE ITALIAN AT BAY.

At BAY 10 dense group OF woods
near South NorBalk, Conn.,, Tony
Sabine, crazed Italian Known to have
shot one man and suspected of the
murder OF another, has stood off q
posse of farmers and deputy sheriffs
for - hours. Armed with shotgun
and large supply OF ammunition,
Sabine has kept up sharp tight with
his pursuers.
Lamps we're lighted in every home
aud hamlet in Wilton last night and in
many churches vigils are kept by the
male folks through fear of the dement,.
ed outcast.
For a month Sabine has denied the
farmers, who feared to attack him as
he stalked about the fields, helping
himself to what he needed, for the man
always was armed With his shotgun, and
it was known that somewhere be had
hidden what appeared to be an unlimit-
ed supply of shells. When Sabine ap-
reared women and children barred
themselves behind doors.
His depredations became holder until
he walked into the yard Of New York
LAWYER at Wilton and began to pick off
some birts from the trees there for his
breakfast. The lawyer gave the alarm
and aroused the posse which lmmedia-
telo began the pursuit, all the men
heavily armed. Sabina was found eat
ing the birds he had, killed, sitting be-
side fire in a corntield.
At the first sight of the posse Sunday
night he picked up his shotgun and
fired at the nearest men. He missed
them both and started to dun, every
now and then stopping to pump q
couple OF shells back at his pursuers.
This kept the men from closing Ia 90
him and he reached the woods in safety.
A corkon was drawn about the thickest
part OF the wood, but the farmers
feared to rush Sabine in the dark.
Bonfires we're ii hted at short intervals,
and tire posse spent the night about
them, waiting for daylight before NOV
ing against the italian. He was caught
sight of several times yesterday.
Trained police dogs from Belgium
are to be placed upon the chase with
the intention of running Sabine down.
Sabine is suspected Of the murder on
August 80 OF Harry H. Maudlin, q
wealthy farmer. A man thought to be
the Italian refused 10 leave Maudlin's
farm when ordered off the place, and
killed the owner with a shotgun.
Several days before that Sabine had
disappeared from Stamford, where be
had been living. While talking with
a mau he had drawn a revolver, and,
apparently without proVocation, is al
legged to have shot him. Sabine since
tbon has been in hiding in the fields
and woods about South Norwalk.

london Financial Situation.

London, Sept. 19.-Because of the
pressure on the securities market which
has taken the bottom out tot values,
consols dropped today to 1878, new
low record. The financial situation is
admittedly most serious, although lead
ing fEanciers profess not to know of
any reason for the unrest. The drop

of many investors to sell SO that they
could anap up bargains openly offered
