Engineering Appliances as Carriers of Contraband Goods, There is a story of several years’ standing to the effect that at one time a locomotive on one of the lines run- ning across the German-Russian fron- tier was used most successfully as a carrier of contraband goods, and that the fraud, so long practiced, was di covered only while overhauling the en- gine in the repair shops. ‘The exact cir- cumstances cannot now be called to mind, though the essential facts of such illegal use having been made of a legitimate piece of engineering work is brought back to memory by a re- cently published item which chronicles a@ somewhat similar bit of deception. The Belgian customs authorities, it ars Old. appears, knew for a long time that large quantities of jewelry were smug- led over the French border, but how it was done puzzled them. In the lug- gage van of the express which runs between Paris and Brussels is a case which holds the accumulators when the train is electrically lighted. A key of the case is held by the conductor ofthe express, a foreman porter and an ise official of the border station, none of these ever appear to use The other day, as the train ran into vy, the border town, a customs in- tor took it into his head, more ugh officiousness than suspicion. pen the chest. To his amazement, filled to the lid with watches, ns, rings, bracelets and all kinds ofdutiable jewelry. It was found that foreman porter at Quevy had, for jong period, been carrying on a con- band traflic for a well-known Paris veler, who, it is said, had had to dis- girge heavily, both in jew elry and hard ash, in consequence of the disclosures d his frauds.—Carrier’s Magazine. 2 Speed of the Dragon Fly. It is the popular belief that the fight of birds is much swifter than that of insects, but a number of naturalists, who have been making a study of the matter, think that is not the case. A common house fly, for example, is not very rapid in its flight, but its wings make 800 beats a second and send it through the air 25 feet, under ordin- ary circumstances, in the space of that time. When the insect is alarmed, however, it has been found that it ean increase its speed to 160 feet per sec- ond. If it could continue such rapid flight for a mile ght line it would cover that distance in exactly 33 seconds, It is not an uncommon thing, when traveling by rail in the sum- mer time, to see a bee or wasp keeping up with the train and trying to getinat the windows. one of the swiftest of flying birds, and it was thought until recently that no in- sect could escape it. A naturalist tells of an exciting chase he saw between a swallow and a dragon tly, which is the swiftest. of insects. The insect flew with incredible speed, and wheeled and dodged with such case that the swal- low, despite its utmost efforts, com- pletely failed to overtake and capture it—Golden D: Blabber Baths for Rheumatism. In Australia they have a whale cure for rheumatism which is said to be ef- fective, though disagreeable. It was discovered by a drunken man, who v staggering along the beach near the whaling station at Twofold bay, and who, seeing a dead whale cut oper, took a header into the decomposed blubber, It took two hours for him to work his way out, but he was then not only sober but cured of his rheu- matism. Now a hotel has been built in the neighboring town of Eden, where rheumatic patients wait for the arrival of a whale in order to take blub- ber baths.—Detroit Free Press.

The passengers were cared the farmers in the vicinity and taken to Kansas City, 20 miles distant, by a boat that came up the river that night. argo of the Twitight was very rich. It was composed of 300 barrels of whisky, hundreds of cases of wines, liquors and canned goods and a large stock of gen- eral merchandise. For several years she lay on the log in the river, v ole when the water was Jow and again covered. She vy thing of fascination to country boys, who dreamed of all sorts of exploits to get the treasure out of her. There was an air of mystery about herthatthrilled the farm lads like the tales of Capt. Kidd or the stories of the adventures cf wreckers. Four years after she was sunk an un- successful attempt was made to get the rgo. Several years after that farmers in the vicinity got two barrels of whisky out of her and when they went for more she could not be found. The treacherous river had shifted and she was buried in a sand bank. Then the river cut in along the south bank close under the bluff and the great rise of 1887 made a sand bar on top of her, buried her deep and left her far inland under 39 feet of sand, 100 yards from the bank of the river at high water and half a mile from shore when the river was down. Last year a number of Kansas ( gentlemen organized a company tor cover the sunken cargo. By a series of ingenious mechanical devices they lo- cated the wreck in 39 feet of water and found the freight in comparatively good condition. There have been many interruptions of the work, but a large part of the merchandise has already been recovered. ‘The 300 barrels of whisk) are in a perfect state of preservation. One of them was tapped and the whisky was found to be beyond compare, A glass of is, which was poured out before a company of men in the Kansas City club, filled the entire floor with its aror it was thick and oily, almost of the consistency of New Orleans mo- lasses, and after the glass was emptied it clung to the sides as sirup would. The whisky will not be takén out until the government officials shall be- come satisfied that it is «free. The taxes were paid at the distillery where the stuff was made more than 30 years ago. There is a rumor that abaft of where the whisky was found is the purser’s cabin, and in it is a safe containing a large sum of money, which was being carried from St. Louis to up-river mer- chants and army posts. The money question, however, is forgotten for the present in the joy of the wreckers at the finding of the whisky. Speculation is rife as to what will be the profits cf the wreckers. Experienced dealers say that the whisky will sell read’ y for at least $400 a barrel.—St. Louis Globe- Democrat. THE FACE IN ILLNESS. To the Trained Eye It Quickly Shows a Patient's Condition. The face is a good index to the state of one’s physical being, and from it symptoms of disease can be detected almost before the patient is aware that anything serious is the matter with him. For instance, incomplete closure of the eyelids, rendering the whites of the eyes visible during sleep, is a symptom in all acute and chronic diseases of a severe type; it is also to be observed when rest is unsound from pain, wherever seated. Twitching of the eyelids, associated with the oscillation of the eyeballs, or squinting, herald the visit of convul- sions. Widening of the orfices of the nose, with movements of the nostrils to and fro, point to embarrassed breathing from disease of the lu or their plural investment. Contraction of the brows indicates pain in the head; sharpness of the nos- trils, pain in the chest, and a drawn upper lip, pain in the abdomen. To make a general ruie, it may be stated that the upper third of the fa is altered in expression in affections of the brain, the middie third, in the diseases of the organs contained in the abdominal cavity.—The Trained Nurse. for by in the hold ce Pathos in Congress. A very conspicuous and absurdity sen timental member of the house from New England, who loves to weep over the wickedness of the world, and was pathetic over pensions, gave utterance to this burst of eloquence when the pen- sion appropriation bill was under con- sideration by the house: weep? Why did he weep? I say, Mr. Speaker, why did he weep? I repeat, Mr, Speaker, why did he weep? His heart was broken. I knew this man. He died of a broken heart! He died ofa broken heart. Ire- peat, Mr. Speaker, he died of a broken heart! He never smiledagain. They re- fesed him the pitiful increase of two dollars a month on his pension. I say, Mr. Speaker, he never smiled again. 1 repeat, he never smiled again!” and there were tears in the member's voice as he closed this outburst of pathos.— Philadelvbia Telerranh.

North- Far- Al- the Perhaps incredulity will sit in the less a fact that in S there are upward of for the manufactur the last y of fur*coa ir or two there has been a scarcity of dogs, and the prices natural- ly have advanced. The dogs come from and are that peculiar animal in China by the name of “the monks.” Nobody is prepared to believe, per- haps, that in this city annually about 450,000 coonskins are cut up and made into coats, but it is true, for we have the word of a prominent fur man who deals extensively in all kinds of skins, from the skunk to the seal. In 1593 his firm cut up 163,000 coonskins alone, and w ill keep it up so long as the animals exist ‘There are certain animals that have survived civilization, as, for instance, the skunk, the raccoon and the opos- sum, While the wolf, the bear and ani- mals of their nature have almost en- tirely disappeared. In Louisville there lives an old fur buyer by the name of John White, who has followed the business of buying and selling furs for the past 50 years. When ked a short time ago by a St. Paul fur man what difference he noticed in the business now from the st time he went into it, White replied that the people are getting more coons, opos- nd skunks now than ever before, + conclusively that these animals are not affected by civilization, and go ahead multiplying without stint. ‘The vast majority of the otter, beaver, mink and other skins of that ilk are captured in the northwest, throughout Manitoba and the northwestern states, ‘The wombat of Australia was for many y a drug on the market, and dealers found it impossible to dispose of them until the coat manufacturers of St. aul took them up. They were found very excellent for the purpose of co: making, and the hunters who had pre- viously become discouraged and refused to kill any more found their oceupa- tion renewed and profitable. In the last two years the stock has been cleaned out, the wombat has become scarce and the prices have advanced proportionate- ly. Everything seems to be declining in quantity but the raccoon, the skunk and the Chinese dog or monk, and these constitute the bulk of furs from which the coats are manufactured to-d: The buffalo coat at one time was the most popular of them all, and it was the prevalence of the buffalo that gave St. Paul such a start in the industry of fur coatmaking. At the time the buffalo were plenty on the western plains fully 90 per cent. of the fur coats manufac- tured were made of buffalo skins. It was a great industry, not alone for the Indian, but the white hunter, who flocked to the buffalo swamps by the hundreds. The decline of the buffalo was so rapid as to almost exceed belief. When the industry first started the plains fairly swarmed with the animal, and it was the easiest thing in the world to kill all that were desired, but in three years this noble animal was almost en- tirely extinct. When the Northern Pa- cific road was put through to Miles City, Mont., in 1883, there were 225,000 or 250,000 buffalo hides shipped out of that town. That was in 1883 alone. All that number had been killed by white hunters, while the Indian collec- tion amounted to 20,000. The Indians, of course, were not possessed of the im- proved firearms and other methods of destroying the restless creatures, and that accounts for the size of their col- lection. So that in 1883 the collection, all told, amounted to about 270,000 hides and robes. In 18S4 there‘were not over 20,000 col- lected by the Indians and white hunt- ers, and in 1885 there were less than 5,000. In 1886 there were none, and now the only buffalo that exist are the prop- erty of the government and live under its protection in the Yellowstone park. Previous to 1883 all the southern herds were killed off, then the northern herds were attacked, and they disappeared, it seemed, in the twinkling of an eye. One fur that is not used extensively in St. Paul is the seal, although a great many ladies’ garments, coats, muffs and the like are made from this most desir- able of furs. Strange to say, every seal that is eaptured in Canadian or Ameri- can waters must be shipped to London, England, for dressing and dyeing. They are then returned to the United States and made up. Naturally, all this trans- portation adds to the cost of the gar- ment, and that explains why seal is so much higher than the other furs. Raw skins, of course, have no duty on them, and most other skins can be made up in this country, but all efforts to dress and dye the seal successfully in this | country have failed.—St. Paul Dispatch. Doctors Starving in France. In the British Medical Journal Paris correspondent says at least 2,500 physicians in France are battling with starvation, and he adds that physicians themselves are largely responsible for this state of affairs. They “have taught lady patronesses of different societies to diagnose diseases, to dress and band- age wounds, to va their own children and those of their neighbors. Medical science is vulgarized in every way. Doctors write to important daily papers explaining how bronchitis and cramps of the stomach are to be cured, and in fashion jourrals they teach how to cure pimples and avert headaches. Five bundred thousand gratuitous cor- sultafions are given yearly in Paris dis- pensaries, and in this way a large amount of fees is diverted from the medica! profession.” — Chicago Jour- val.
