Hood's ‘Sarsaparilla is just the medicine to gurily your blood and give you strength, D Singular Coincidences. Philadelphia Herald: One of the man, pleasant incidents during the centennial celebration last week due to the open hearted hospitality shown by citizens to visitors occurred on Friday, and 1s worthy of note. Charles Hanger, of Cheyenne, came east to take part in the exercises, bring- ing with him two nieces from Davenport, Ian. They started out on Friday to view the parade, the first object being to obtain 00K pmldom without being compelled to stand in the crowd. Un passing the southwest corner of ‘Thirteenth and Chestnut streets, Mr. Hanger observed some workmen eruclln{ seats in the show window of the store of Thackara Sons & Co. He offered to bear the expense of their construction for the use of three seats. Charles Thackara, of the firm, was summoned, and learning where the visitors were from f(enerously offered lhen'lbslen(s and gave them every attention possible. One of lheflyoung ladies happened to address Mr, Hanger as‘‘'Uncle Charlie” while Mr. Thackara was present. The fact of them bearing the same Christian name was commented upon as a rather singular coincidence, particularly as they had been born on the same dny. “Are you a married man?” inquired Mr. Thackara of his new-found friend. “I am,” was the reply. I was married on the 27th day of May, 1872." “That's singular, That's the day on which I was married. My wife’s name is Ida.” *‘So is mine,”” almost shouted the west- erner. ‘‘Have you any children?” “‘Yes, 1 have one son.’’ “*Sohave 1. What's your boy’s name?” Fred.” *‘Well, this is the most singular thing [ ever 'henrd of. That's my boy’s name, too,” The comparison ended here, however, for Master Hanger was born nine days before Master Thackara. The singular circumstance of the two men bearing the same christian name; being born and married on the samne days; both marrying ladies bearing the same name, and each having but one son, and these sons bearing the same name, was the principal subject of con- versation in a group of friends who occu- pied the windows in Thackara’s store for the remainder of the day, and the acci- dental acquaintance of the gentlemen will no doubt ripen into a friendship which will continue through the remain- der of their lives. ——— Complexion Powder 18 an absolute neccsnit'y ot the refined toilet in this cli- mate. Pozzoni’s combines every ¢lement of beauty and purity. An Eccent LVESTON, c Englishman., Sept. 22.—A young Englishman arrived in the oity to-night and registered at’a hotel as Carter G. Gordon, from Savannah, Ga. Shortly after he created quite a sensation by walking up and down the principal streets clad in_knee breeches, a panked straw hat, and a huge cape overcoat, although the weather was sultry. His tric conduct soon attracted atten- articularly as he was lavish with money, slapping down $100 bills for trif- ling articles and declining to accept any change. It appears that fic arrived from England a few months ago, burdened with more money than he knew what to do with, and to gratify a singular freak made a bee-line for Texas. Hearing that the town of Ballinger was a good place at which to invest capital in lands he quickly went there and caused consider- able astonishment by not only buying lands, but by buying almost every- thing in the city. He purchased a train of@wagons, purchased all the guns and rifles and pistols in the town, hired a number of men to serve him, and then organizee a force tohunt Indians and buf- 0. Such is a history of his earliest exploits. ‘The Indian hunting scheme fell through, however, and the eccentric_young Eng- lishman took a trip to 8an Francisco and soon left that city for Georgia. He was evercome with a desire to see Texas again, however, and he explained his ac- tion tonight by saying that he was par- ticularly impressed with Galveston, and thought he'd buy out several wealthy syndicates. Whatever truth there may be in his story, he certainly seems to be overstocked with money. = Occasionally he would be surrounded by curious rouns on the street corners, and before eaving them he would present two or three in the crowd with a roll of bills. He said to the Globe-Democrat corres- pondent that his next objective point was St. Louis, where he intended to be during the Grand Army encampment, and where he intended spending bushels o fmoney. —rhe Ll How the Chinese Scare the Devil, San Francisco Examiner: The begin- ning of the annual Chinese festival known as “Ghee Koung Tung’’ took lace at the joss house of the Ghee ong Tung society, in Spofford ulley. The alley was abiaze with candles and sandal paper which emitted malodorous tumes, At the entrance of the joss house were two giant figures made of vaper, repre- senting freuz potentates of a former period. Inside, candles and punks were burning amid decorations of most bril- hant colored pavpers, giving it a most de- cidedly oriental appearance. On a plat- form in front of each of their special idols were all the fruits of the season— candles, cakes and other chinese luxur- 3 Sandal wood was burning on every side. Promptly at 12 o'clock midnight, a rocession formed in front or the joss ouse, headed by several pagans bearing burning wood on a wire screen, witn which they lit the prepared parcels com- posed of punks and greasy paper, which were placed in front of each door on the line of march. After this came the lan- tern-carriers, followed by the prominent members of the society, who were dressed in long gowns and a peculiar shaped turban hats on their heids; About a dozen Chinese children were in the wake of the procession, also in holiday attire. The latter are known as the Ghee Koung Fung Cheng Tsing or the societies’ altar boys, After marching around Dupont, Washington and Clay streets, and th alleys abounding in 'that neighborhood, they re-entered the joss house and the feasting began, The festival lasts four days, and each day frem two to three hundred China- men are fed gratis, The festival is an ancient one, and isheld at every city where Chinamen who belong to the so- ciety abound. The Ghee Koung Tung festival isa feast in honor of the great dead. The burning of the papers, candles and punks 18, it is said, to keep the evil spirit away trom the living as well as the dead. This religious society is the richest as well as the moxt&%weflul amongst the Chinese. From $5,000 to $10,000 are spent every {ear in this city in the idolatrous festiv- ty. This fund consists of contributious from members of the society. LATEST BY TELEPHONE'! a havin’ week ¢ crowd is a goin’, J.~That’s so. They give a pole with every pair of curtains sold.
