x LAUNDRY TRICKS. Victims of Strange Signs Tell How They Have Been Branded. «rom New York Sun: “Since I came to New York, twelve yeats ago,” said ‘ae man in the group, “I have been Sgown in the laundry world as ‘R 9.’ i don’t suppose I could get rid of that toark whatever I should do, It identi- Ss me as persistently as a hand with cne finger gone.

A’ Bow Who Writes Backward, bat Sees It ae If Written Correctly. A remarkable case of what, for want of a better name, is termed perverted vision is just now attracting much at- tention in North Adams, Mass. ‘The victim of this strange malady is John Ghidotti, a six-year-old boy who at- tends the public schools of that city. Physically and mentally, so far as sci- entists and physicians can determine, he in no way differs from other boys of his age, except that it is practically impossible for him to write in the or- dinary manner. He uses his left hand, writing from right to lefi, forming his letters and sentences backward. This peculiarity of the boy was noticed as soon as he began to take writing les- sons. He learned the letters quickly, and wrote rapidly for one so young, but his writing was invariably in the reverse order. Starting from the wrong side of the page he would cover his copybook with characters which looked unlike anything called writing, but if the page was held before a mirror the reflection was perfectly legible and ap- peared like ordinary writing. Strange to say, he makes figures in the proper manner. Yet he cannot,explain the difference between writing figures from left to right and letters just the re- verse. It seems impossible to teach this child that there is anything pe- culiar about his chirography, am@ he Persists that his handwitia is like that of any other person. One may guide his right hand over a line of copy in the proper manner, but the mo- 1 put all my wash into my trunk, and | when I reached New York there was qulie a umulation.

Five weeks were required in preparation, one week in the ac- tual moving, and two weeks setting the building on its new foundations, When it was all done not even one plate in all of the 3,000 cases of china which were in the warehouse was cracked. The operation of moving was conduct- ed in much the same manner as was employed Jast spring to change the abiding place of the Emanuel Baptist Church of this city. Heavy beams, 6,000 in all, were laid down and on them forty tracks were placed. On th tracks 1,000 rollers were put. The building moved on the rollers. Along one side of the structure was placed a row of screw jacks, with two men in charge of each. At a given signal each jack was given a turn, moving the building ahead a fraction of an inch. Afterwards the progress aver- aged two feet an hour for five and one- half days. When it arrived at its des- tination the structure was gradually lowered onto its foundation without so much as a timber having been strained. A Plors Robin, Here is a story of an orthodox robin. Some time ago I attended morning ser- vice in Bly crthedral, says a writer in the Londen Daily Telegeaph, where, during the prayers, a robin kept flit- ting abaut the building, joining occa- sionally in the service with a modest chirrup. When the clergyman ascended the pulpit and bezan to speak the robin deliberately perched himself on one of the pinnacles of the chance] screen, quite close to the oraior, and the } ler the pastor preached the louder did the robin sing, much to the amuse- ‘ment. of the congregation. I have no recollection of what the sermon was about, but the robin’s singing made a deep impress‘on upon me, Thumb Test of Insanity. Dr. Burton Ward, according to’ the Medical Age, declares that there “is one infallible symptom indicating whether one is sane or not. Let a per- son speak ever so rationally and act ever so sedately, if his or her thumbs rena snactive there is no doubt of insanity Lunatics seldom make use of their thumbs in writing, drawing, pr saluting.” Ms irretrievably | COMmences to write ment his hand is released he instantly changes the pencil to his left hand and in his through- the-looking+glass fashion. Another pe- culiar feature of this perverted vision is that apparently he has no difficulty in writing the handwr persons, although there j s ha dif- others. His teacher, Mis Buckley, says that he evi is as difficult for him to wr ordinary manner as it wou another to practice his un be for his difficulty comes from a defect in his eyes or from the fact that he is left handed, but she has little hope of remedy unless she can induce the child to use his right hand. Dr. CC. W. Wright, of North Adam spec on the eye, after a number of e inations of the boy's eyes, h: at the conclusion that the shild is, to use his own expression, “a freak of n: ture.” He does not, however, think that there is any unusual crossing of the nerve fibres of the eye.

A Russian company is now being organized for exploiting the in- herent forces of this magnificent cas- cade as an electrical motor. A net- work of wires will transmit the motor power of the tumbling and fouming waters of Imatra in various directions, even as far as the gicomy and misty Petropolis. The new company desires to obtain a driving force of twenty thousand horse-power, and, as the Fin- to r con- The so- power at five hundred riksmarks, the necessary capital for working the en- terprise will be twelve million five hundred thousand of that currency. The lessees will pay for thelr acquired force by a fixed percentage on the gross capital. It is stated that twenty .thou- sand horse-power represents only one- sixth of the colossal force of the Fin- nish Niagara.—London News. White Slaves of Old England Hight hundred years ago all of the large cities of England had regular slave markets for the sale of white slaves from all parts of the kingdom. In the “Life of Bishop Wulfstand” the writer says: “It was a moving sight to people of both sexes tied together and sold like cattle—men, unmindful of their obligations, delivering into slav- ery their relatives, and even their own children.” In another part of this work it is noted that among these slaves were “particularly young wom- en, of fine proportions and of great beauty.” Weyler's Warfare. “Give me my writing material,” said Weyler to his secretary. “Red or black ink, sir?” “Red, you fool!

Dry- goods clerk sits opposite her and asked the other day if she really thought there were bargains in the matrimonial lottery. ‘Of course there are,’ slic answered, with a laugh. ‘I myself have been marked down from 38 io 25.’ Old bachelor that sits next to her at the table spilled his ice cream in her lap. She never screamed nor ran away, but effusively took him by the hand and congratulated him on the coolness of the entire proceeding. Dude boarder had the nerve to pro- pose to her and she took half an hour explaining to him how it was all she could possibly do to support her moth- er and herself. When she thought of taking on any more obligations she would certainly have another talk with him. The chump went around telling it, proud as a turxey gobbler.

Haven't the slightest idea that she will accept and for that very reason am inclined to think that she will.” EXPERTS AS EGG-EATERS. Shipwrecked Men Hungrily Ate a Barrel -of Hen Fruit a Day. “Do you like eggs?” was ihe ques- tion that stirred up a “49-er” to make some talk in a Bangor store the other day, says the Lewiston Journal. He was an old man and he straightened up to something like the height of his prime and answered: “I had a sur- feit of them once. "Twas many years ago, when I was on the way home from California, We left the isthmus on a good brig bound for New York, but ran into a coral reef in the Carib- bean sea and were wrecked. It was @ patch of sand just out of the water, | but you ought to see the flocks of sea fowl that nestled on it! They had to move out of the way to give us room ‘to stay there and that was about all they would do. Their nests were everywhere, and there were eggs in undance. We ate about a barrel of em every day during the twelve days | We were there. Some of us sot off in : beat and went to San Juan, in Nica- ragua, where he got a vessel to go | after those we left on the reef. That vessel was commanded by William | Lawrence of Bath, who was killed by aman called W son while he was a policeman there.

Then they fly around the reflection but after practice one is able to keep the light always on them, and the birds not infrequently come within the reach of a man’s hand. A ruffed grouse gives a startled look when the light strikes it. Then up it jumps, and away it goes. Hawks, too, are usually startled or annoyed so that they fly off. Woodpeckers don’t seem to mind it at all. Rabbits blink and stare at a glass for a while, then they go around a stump }and sit up again, as if waiting for | the light to play tag with them.—New York Sun. Choosing a Life Partner. The Washington Star tells the fol- lowing tale of a girl with an eye to the main chance: “It was a difficult matter to make up my mind which to accept,” said the girl with a practical mind. “I understand that both are very bright.” “Yes, They're inventors.” “There is something nobie in that profess i cannot think without the profoundest admiration of these men who harness the giant forces of nature to do the bidding of the human will.” “Yes. That sentiment applies to William. He’s at work on a flying ma- chine and a new kind of electric en- gine. But one can’t buy moquette car- pets and dining-room chairs with fine theories, you know*‘” “Aren’t you going to marry Wil- Yam?” “No. I accepted John. He’s going to be a rich man. He has an invention under way for fastening on suspender buttons so they can’t come off.” Western Generosity. The cold flag is up again and we are promised a genuine blizzard from the west.

In the December Century Gen, Hor- ace Porter says of the entrance of Grant’s army into the Wilderness: After the officers at headquarters had obtained what sleep they could get, they arose about daylight, feeling that in all probability they would witness before night either a fight or a foot ; race—a fight if the armies encountered each other, a foot race to secure good positions if the armies remained apart. Gen. Meade had started south at dawn, moving along the Germania road. Gen. Grant intended to remain in his present camp till Burnside ar- rived, in order to give him some di- rections in person regarding his move- ; ments. The general sat down to the breakfast table after nearly all the staff officers had finished their morn- ing meal. While he was slowly sip- Ping his coffee a young newspaper re- porter, whose appetite, combined with his spirit of enterprise, had gained a substantial victory over his modesty, I woulda’t mind taking a cup of some- thing warm myself, if there’s no ob- jection.” Thereupon seizing a coffee Pot he poured out a full ration of that soothing beverage, and, after helping proceeded to eat breakfast with an ap- petite which had evidently been stimu- lated by long hours of fasting. The general paid no more attention to this | the flight of a bird across his path. He scarcely looked at the intruder, did hot utter a word at the time, and made no mention of it afterward. It was a fair example of the imperturbability of his nature as to trivial matters tak- ing place about him. The following is an incident of the next morning: The members of the headquarters mess soon after assembled to partake of a hasty breakfast. The general made rather a singular meal preparatory to so exhausting a day as that which was to follow. He took a cucumber, sliced it, poured some vinegar over it, and partook of nothing else except a cup of strong coffee. The first thing he did after rising from the table was to call for a fresh supply of cigars. His col- ored servant “Bill” brought him two dozen. After lighting one of them, he filled his pockets with the rest. He then went over to the knoll, and began to walk back and forth slowly upon the cleared portion of the ridge. The Craze for Tweeds Revied. The attentioa of all fashionable Lon- doners is now directed to the conspicu- ous revival of the craze for tweeds. Those of the present season are of fine texture and cost a handy sum. Canvas materials, too, of the thickest and coarsest qualities are putting in appearance, most of them displaying at least two colors, violet, dark blue and green making favorite combina- tions, The short, loose black coat is trying valiantly to make its appear- ance, but most of the tailor suits still adhere to the close, tight styles, the skirts growing narrower, and the coats being cut in the style of a man’s morn- ing coat. For street and out-of-door sport the Norfolk jacket is being seen frequently, but this is a trying fash- ion. A gown was recently seen at a Scotch country house, which combined the rare attractions of a tea gown and a dinner gowa. It was made of black mousseline de soie, striped with nar- row lines of fine jet, and falling from a square yoke of fine lace, with tight sleeves of the same, surmounted by double frills of kilt-plaited mousseline. This was always worn with the hair arranged in the latest French fashion, which consists of a waved fringe in front and waved hair at the back of the neck, with a small tight knob on the extreme top of the head. Another attractive evening dress seen ut the same country house had a moire silk skirt, shot with green and blue, com- pleted with a pale green chiffon bodice high in the neck and formed entirely of tucks running crosswise. This has a yoke hanging in points to the waist of cream-color lace, studded with heads and. jewels matching the three colors o! the skirt. % Jules Verne. Except when he brings out one of his marvelous books we hear little of M. Jules Verne, but the fact is that he is leading a very quiet life at Amiens. the appearance of a retired general, he is full of energy and as hard working as of yore. He is now busy in the exe- cution of his plan for publishing a se- ries of stories bearing on different countries. Before beginning a partic- ular work M. Jules Verne reads up a number of geographical, historical and other hooks treating of that part of the world, and as he goes on the plot gradually germinates in his mind. He is indeed an active and laborious toiler. He rises regularly at 4 o’clock in the morning, and writes steadily until noon. He retires to rest at 9, except on two evenings in the week, when he accompanies his wife to the Grand theater, dining before at a restaurant opposite the building. This is his great. treat and he is fond of remarking that on these occasions he and his wife enjoy themselves just as if they were a young couple on their honeymoon. As a matter of fact, M. and Mme. Jules Verne have not been near Paris for the last eight years and find that their life at Amiens suits them perfectly.—Paris Correspondence London Telegraph. Resented the Policeman's Presence.
