MORE DISCOVERIES. Interesting 2 ture of C d Important Litera- t Is Uncovered. Oxyrhyncos, Scene of Former Dis- covertes, the tiace—Pragmen, of Je- sus Among the Kelics. Collection of sayings « The interesting discovery at Oxyrhyn- @us in 1897 by Messrs. Grenfeli and Hunt of Oxford of the logia of Christ, and Other important papyri, will doubtless be remembered. ‘Lhe results of a brief examination of other papyri discovered by the same men in a second series of excavations fully justify the hopes ex- pressed in 1897, that Oxyrhyneus will prove a richer mine than any other for | the recovery of early Christian litera- j ture. Two, or perhaps three, more sea- | sons’ work will be required to exhaust the more promising portions of the site, the mounds of which cover an area sur- Passed by few ancient Egyption towns. The most interesting, perhaps, of the discoveries in the second excavations is @ third-century fragment of a collec- tion of the sayings of Jesus, similar in Style to the so-called logia discovered in 1897. The separate sayings introduced by the words “Jesus saith” are for the most part unrecorded elsewhere, though some which occur in the Gospels as “The Kingdom of God is written to you and many, that the first shall be last,” ete., occur here tn different surround- ings, Six sayings are in perfect condition, but the new logia papyrus supplies more evidence of its origin than its prede- cessor, where it contains an introductory Paragraph stating that what follows consists of “The words which Jesus the Living Lord spake,” to two of His dis- ciples, and moreover, one of the uncan- Onical sayings is already extant in part, the conclusion of it: “He that wanders sholl reign, and he that reiens shall rest,” being quoted by Clement of Alexandria, from the Gospel accord- ing to Hebews, It is indeed possible that this Gospel Was the source from which all this secon ies of the lozia was derived, or all, or some may have been taken from the Cospel accor to which Prof. Harnack others referred in speabing of the logia found in 1897, Messrs, Grenfell and Hunt, however, are disposed to regard both jes as cellecttons of sayings curre to the Lord, rather m any one anonical to Egyptians, of Berlin, and than ex Gospel Latin papyri from Erypt are so rare that one cx ‘2 part of an epitome 2g 10 of Livy, covert to 5 bool is partic later than history, have been lost, althe epitome of them Is extant. Th Tus which has now been however, differs from this epi @ very ly In respect to events selected for ition, The back of the L. subsequently used for w text of the Epistle to the Hebrews which a considerable y served, and is much the le et piece of the New Testement on papyrus yet discovered. Another interesting Bibli- cal fraement comes fre the Septua- fint version of Genesis. It is proba- bly a century older than any of the ex- tant vellum manuscripts. Among the nrmerons fragments of lost Greel clas- sics, is a first century B.

Strikes a Pupil in School and Repro- duces a Pieture He Ix Deaw- ; ing on His Body, c — Destructive thunderstorms occurred in the vicinity of Hoosick Falls, N. , recently. Lightning did no little dam- age and its pranks caused much com- ment. One bolt struck a small district school at Lake Lauderdale, tore up part of the flooring and stunned the teacher and six of her pupils. About 25 chil- dren were in the room. b ame rktey Was a his seat unconscious. Another boy, named Randall, was drawing a plant on the blackboard at the time of the csh. He complained of an odd sensa- ‘, in his side and upon examination it was found the picture on the black- board had been reproduced on his side. Doctors say the shock drew the biood to the surface of his body and made the reproduction possible, QUEEN SELLS FARM PRODUCTS. Milk and Butter Trade a Source of Profit to the Thrifty Ruler of Holland, The kings of Bavaria have long de- Fived a profit from certain breweries in Munich, and now Queen Wilhelmina of Holland is making money by selling milk and butter. Her first step in this direction was when she induced her husband, Prince Henry, to buy severai cows, which were placed on the rich land adjoining the castle of Loo. The cows prospered exceedingly and the queen was so weil pleased with the Buccess of the experiment that she in- structed the manager of her estates to visit several stock farms and to pur- chase Jv of the best cows that could be obtained in Holland. This has been done, and milk and butter of excellent quality are now being sold from the royal farm. What Should They Dot The London Lancet advises parents Bot to have a fat baby.

A snowy haired old man, so feeble he could scarcely walk, who was ar. in the Gates avenue police 2 Brooklyn the other day on a > of vagrancy, astonished Magis- irlong by declaring that he was 106 years old. He was found wan- dering aimlessly about the streets of East New York in the rain the morn- ing before. When taken out of the pen to be ar- raigned before the magistrate the old man was so weak he had to be sup ported by a court officer. Bent and tottering he appeared before the magis- trate, apparently not realizing where he was. “What is your name?” asked the magistrate kindly. “Barney Hughes,” replied the old | man. “How old are you?" “One hundred and six years, sir,” responded the prisoner. The magistrate gasped in astonish- ment. “Are you really as old as that?” he asked. “Yes, sir,” insisted the old man. “I was 106 years old last month. I have kept track of the years, sir, and I know just what my age is,” “Have you a home?” “I have had no home for years, sir. I am without family and without friends, T have been in the alms- house so many times I have forgotten just how many.” “Would you like to go there again?” “Yes, sir" returned the old man ina broken voice. “I can go to no other place.” After committing the old man Mag- istrate Furlong said he would make inquiry about him. A CANINE PASSENGER. Sew York Mongrel Makes Regular Trip Between Mount Vernon und New Vork City, For some time «he employes at the Mount Vernon station of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad have been curious to learn the identity of a dog who seems to have become a reg- ular commuter on the road. The dog inswers to the name of Jack and is a mongrel, Jack usnatly arrives at the station panting from exertion to catch the 8:47 train for this city. He waits until he sees a good chance to get on the train, and, after all the passengers are on board, he makes a dash up the steps and into a coach, He hides under a seat. At first the conductors and brakemen chased him and kicked him when they caught him stealing rides, but he has since mode friends of them and they have come to respect his rights, at least as much as they do the rights of the other commuters, The dog, when he reaches the Grand Centra ation, bounds off the train and disappears in the crowd, In the even- ing he returns, and by watching for the Mount Vernon commuters, manages to Snd the train for that city, The other dey Jack was put off two trains, and then disappeared, In theaft- ernoon he was seen getting off a train from New York city, showing that he had cone there despite the efforts of the station eraployves to prevent him. When he ot xeta train, Jack goes about with his tail between his legs, whining disconsolately, STARTS FOR THE POLE. Capt. Ammundsen's Expedition, Equipped for a Four Yeurs’ Stay, Sails from Norway, The whaling ship Gjoa, with Capt. Ammundsen's magnetic north pole ex- pedition on board, has sailed from Christiana, Norway. It will first go to King William land, on the east coast of Greenland, and will thence proceed for Behring strait. If Capt. Ammund- sen is able to follow the course projected it will take him almost across the pole. Capt. Ammundsen, who is a Norv sian, was the first officer of the Belgica in Gerlach’s antarctic expedition in 1897-'99. After his return Ammundsen consulted with Prof. Neumayer, of Hamburg, the leading authority on ter- restrial magnetism, who informed him that expert determination of the earth's Magnetic north pole would be of the greatest value to science. The fitting out of the expedition which has just left Christiana followed: The Gjoa is classed as being one of the strongest and best vessels of the arctic fleet. It has a crew of. seven men, is fitted with an auxiliary pe- troleum engine, and is equipped fora four years’ stay In the arctic regions, Margherita of Italy Goes to Haunted Castle and Describes Her Emotions in Poem, Queen Margherita of Italy, recently paid a visit to Princess Biancaccio, nee Field, in her magnificent castle at San Grogeroi, Tivoli, near Rome.

Investigation Made by an Editor Whe Fiads a Woman at the Bottom of It—More Than Ferty Years Old, One of the choicest possessions of Emporia, Kan., is its celebrated “town row.” Bent Murdock, editor of the El Dorado Republican, has been investigat- ing its origin and has found a woman at the bottom of it. Here is his faithful re- port of the case, recently published by William Allen White, in the Emporia Gazette: “The Emporia town row started in the summer of 1859. Plumb, Eskridge, Stotler, Proctor, Bancroft, Bundrem, Hill, Cooper and others were unmarried and were the Emporia hot stuff. A dance was given at Phillip’s place, on Duck creek, that summer, and, although it was a dozen or fifteen miles away, all the Emporia young men went. There was a blooming widow in Em- poria—she was not exactly a widow, but her husband didn’t count—and each young man sent an invitation to the widow to the dance, and the vendetta was on, Plumb won out and on the eve- ning of the dance they all went over to Duck Creek on horseback. Some with girls and some without—girls were mighty scarce those days. ‘Well, when they got to dancing all the other Emporia boys agreed to boy- cott Plumb's girl, and not one of them danced with her during the evening; and the war was on; and is on to this day. “During the civtl war a sort of peace was declared. Piumb was in the army, while Eskridge was at home running things his way. It was in 1866, if we remember, that Eskridge was out for the legislature, The soldiers had returned home, and they immediately trotted out Plumb, who was elected, an dthis re- vived the town row, “About this time H. C. Cross landed in Emporia, He was an Ohio stocknian; and had a bunch of sheep, Failing with sheep, he studied law; and although he had no money, he soon tarted a bank in opposition to the Plumb bank, and from then on it was pull Dick, pull Devil, But Plumb won out as United States senator, but in all his fights he had to placete the Cross crowd “Later-on, when the Ottawa road was built, Plumb took the Cross crowd into the construction company. Plumb was away and Cross managed the job, got the money, but did not divvy up. Asa matter of fact, a large sum was due the Plumb crowd, about $75,000, if we re- member, bugCross never spoke of it to Plumb aMfiward, Although Cross and Plumb and nearly all the other original participants in the Emporia town row are dead, the row goes merrily on, and it begins to look Ike {t would go on for- ever,” GRAFTS FROG SKIN ON HAND. University of Michigan Surgeon Per- formes Interesting Operation on a Furniture Workman, The unusual experiment of grafting frog skin on the hand of a patient has been successfully performed at the homeopathy hospital of the Michigan university at Ann Arbor by Surgeon Westfall. Albert Witte, a— furniture workman of Adrian, had his hand caught {n a sander and lost some inches of skin on the palm and back of his hand. At first skin from the pa- tient’s leg was transplanted on the hand, but the operation was slow and pain- ful. Dr. Westfall then secured a large live frog, and, after destroying its brain, thoroughly cleaned the skin, sliced the white skin off its belly ané placed the particles on the area to be t covered. These grafts were covered ‘ with very thin rubber tissues and that surrounded by dressing moistened by a common salt solution. After 96 hours the whole dressing was removed. The frog skin grafts had united, the granu- lation on the surface of the raw hana skin and projected beyond the surface of the latter, so that the whole sur- face appeared red. The cells in the frog skin had begun to grow and coy- ered the whole surface with new s! i Mr. Witte expected to leave the hos- pital in a few days with his hand com- pletely healed. SOME ODD SUPERSTITIONS. They Are of Special Interest to Moth- ers, Marriageable Maids and Pretty Girls. “Up in Bucks county,” said a Phila- delphia traveler recently, “an old wo- man recounted to me some old supersi- tions. These, she declared, she and all her friends believed in implicity. “One regarding new-born babies. ‘When a baby is taken for the first time into a strange house to dine an egx and a piece of bread should be given to it by the house's owner. Oth- erwise the child will have bad luck for ten days. % “Avother regarded marriageable maids. When a maiden is shelling peas she should, if she find a pod with nine peas in it, put it over the house door ‘on the first young men to en- ter the house through the door will many her.” Many Would Probably Be Willing. Possibly there are people, says the Chicago Chronicle, who agree with Mr. Carnegie as to the disgrace of dying rich, but most of them would be: willing to they had a sure thing on living rich for a few years. — Caution Needed.

A Womun’s Complexion. Itis rank foolishness to attempt to remove sallowness or greasinesr ofthe skin by the use of cosmetics, or “local treatment, as advocated by the “beauty doctors.”, The onlf safe and sure way that a woman can im- prove her complexion is by purifying and euriching the blood, which eau only be accomplished by keeping the liver healthy and active. The liver is the seat of disease and blood pol lution, Green’s August flower acte directly on the liver, cleanses and en- riches the blood, purifies the-com plexion.
