I met her in the library, There was an im- patient frown between her eyes, her face was pale, her step languid, she looked tired and worn, says a writer in the San Francisco Calt. “What 1s the trouble?” I asked “Nothing but a headache,”” was the reply. The next one was o man. He looked cross and anxious, He was at the telephone, and his replies to the interrogatories evidently being sent over the wire wero delivered in a sharp, irritated tone that his mild explana- tory words did not seem to justify. At last his ‘'goodby” was said, the recciver bhung up, the boll rung and he turned away. “Lord, how my head aches,” he sighed. Though addressed apparently to a higher power, the remark was overheard by me. A few moments later I heard a similar re- mark. 1 think I must go home and lie down,” said the friend I had invited to go for a drive, “my head is aching soverel Now the fact that these threo people had headaches is not remarkable.

Men, women and canildren alike took to it with wvigity, and the medical fraternity selsed " upon it _as & nacea for almost all affections, deed one great German authority so chad acterized it. Iu hemicranib it was fouud to be particularly useful. Then the grip swept ovor the world, and tne doctors began to fight it with antipyrin. Probably its use in this disease tended largely to familiarize it to the people. Its consumption in this country in the last four years has boen enormous. As might bo suspected of & rem- edy that produces such rapid and great fall in the temperature of the body, autipyrin is a torrible depressant. Its use is at- tended with very grave and serious dangers. The suicidal mania that seemed to swveep over the land among convalescents from the grip was very moticeable. ‘‘Despondency aftor the grip” became u stock newspaj phrase in accounting for those cases. he truer characterization of them would have been “‘despondency after antipyvin,” for the universal use of this arug in combating the disease was accountable, in a great measure, for the peculiar melancholy and depression of convalescing patients. The drug is_particularly contra-indicated, as the medical term goes, in cold climates, like that along our central coast, where the skin is not apt to be active and a good share of its work s thrown upon the kidneys. Antipyrin diminishes the action of these organs. Its weakening action on the heart is also marked, and presents a great element of danger.

How to Provent Headache. Prevention, however, is alwa better than cure, and most of our headaches are proventablo by attention to the ordinary rules of life. When these, systematically followed, fail to work an improvement in the case, then the thing to do is to cail in a physician. There is no crank so utterly without reason in his crankiness as he who professes to scorn the doctor and who ‘‘never takes medicine.” He usually means he never takes prescriptions, for as a genoral thing this type of human being is an inveterate ‘‘doper,” who pins his faith on whisky, quinine and anti- Dyrin. It will be some yearss before this world can spare the physician. The gradual adoption by man through long, slow ages of the upright posture has not yet resulted in his interior mechanism wholly adaptiog it- self to the change. He is more liable than the lower animals to internal accidents and ph, al disturbances, because of the changed relation of his organs to each other, resultant upon his rising from all fours. Hence, in a large measure, his headaches, his stomachic dificulties and the various other ills that human flesh is heir to. We may account for the remaining measures by the fact that man has not yet fully learned the laws that govern his changed organism. Those leaders who have sought to establish these laws have studied for the most part the lives of the lower animals, reasoning from their simple stateas to how man should govern himself, often forgetting, apparently, the fact that man, in standing erect, has practically altered his relation to the whole animal creation. Until he has become fully adapted to this he will continue to be heir to physical ills, and to need the assistance of special students of the human mechanism in overcoming them. AMUSKEHENTS, «“Crust of Socioty" at the Fifteenth Street, “The Crust of Society,” which began a week's engagement at the Flifteenth Street theater last night, is not a play for prudes. Made into English by Miss Lowse Imogen Guiney and William mour from Dumas’ great play, “Le Demi Monde,” i preaches a sermon that finds lodgment in the heart of every one who has witnessed the foibles, the deceits, the c: wrongs perpetrated loak of society. Modernized nature, the civilization of the nineteenth century, is only different in kind from that which has existed in ull ages. 1ts virtues may fina different chanuels for their exercise, its vices be cultivated in different fields, buv they arc essentially the same vhing. *“The Crust” takes for its motto, “It was the unwritten social law that a good man should marry none but a good woman,” and from the rise of the tirst to to the fall of the last curtain the moral is clear and dis- tinet. There . is no attempt to conceal the ‘‘spack on the peach,” bui on the chntrary it is legit- imately siown how some beings riso like stepping stones of their dead selves to domi- uating positions in the circles of fashion. The social problems have been handled with cousummate skill, the situations finely wrought out as you would expect from the brilliant Seymour of Boston Museum fame. The contrasts between good and bad are sharply drawn ina most impressive way, but there is a cafe-like air about the play that is very strong. ‘I'he womien, for the greater part, are ad- venturesses of the ultra fashionable vypo, the men but teeders to the inoMinate vanity and ambition of these butterflies of the night. There is one quasi hero by the name of St. Aubyn, who, while having considera- ble of a past, like the rest,is sufficiently manly to attempt to save a friond, Captain Randail Nortncote, from the machinations of a totully bad woman, Mrs. Eastlake Chapel, and as usual is involved in a series ot complications that cause erdless trouble, But he finally succeeds in showing up the modern A alen and the play ends happily. ~Individually and collectively the company is among the vei tseen in Omaba S > ‘Lilbury, who played t, i3 a right pretty woman aud clever actress, who in years gone by held a strong place in the legitimate.

My, Eugeno Tyler Cham- berlain contributes am article ontitled, “The Invasion of Hawail," in which he maintaius that the broad principies laid down in Dan- fel Webster's indtrctions to the United States representdtive’in Hawaii in 1851 were the rule of the govérnment in its relation with the government of Hawali up to Jan- uary 16, 1803, The special message ia Mr. Webster's dispatch to which Mr. Chamber- lain alludes is as follows: Whilo indisposed to excrolss any siniator influsnce itseif ovor the councils of Hawaii or to overcome the proceedings of 1ts government Dy the menace of the actual application of su- perior military force, tho United States ex- s to seo othor powerful nations act in the o spirit. Mr. Chamberlain reviews the ciroum. stances connected with tho dethronoment of Queen Lilivokulani. He recalls also the action of the Knglish government in 1843, | when England restored to Kamehamehi the Hawaiian islands, which, he says. was ren- dered under duress of an English ship of war. Hon. William Springer, inan article en- titled “Our Presont Duty,” contends that the only honorable courseopen to the United States is to restore tlic queen to the throne, inasmuch as she was displaced only "{" superior force of American troops. r. Springer indulges the hope that the example of our government and the advantages of our ocivilization may soon induce the Hawaiians, acting on their own judgment, to suppress their monarchy and establish in 1ts rla\cu a republican form of government, but t is education, and nov armed intervention, that sould bring about this revolution, which every American citizen must desire. S QLI DEFENDING HIMSELE, Modicine Man Warner Replies to Certaln English Aspersons. New York, Dec. 3.—H., H.

Warner company. limited, there has been considerable oriticism by the English shareholders, made a statement tonight at the Imperial hotel in reply to the churge of the English dircctors in the company in vheirannual report of the misappropriation of the funds of the corporation. This charge ap- peared in the cable nows of this morning's papers. Hesaid the statemeut was false aud malicious. At the last annual meeting he voted against the re-election of the charman, and for this exercise of his privi- lege he was summarily removed as managing director and has had no connection with the business since. As to the charge of his having appropri- ated the funds of the company he would say he had the use of certain moneys of the com- pany at various times during the past three aund a half s, Dut, with the knowledge and approval of ‘the ‘directors of the com- pany. After the gorner in the stock had been closed, the directprs began to rofer to his account as an “overdraft, and requested him in the fallof J8W to_put some sfock up as collateral. He, complied with their re- quest and transferred to_two of the direc- tors, Messrs. Boord and Baetz, stock of the company of the par yulue of £5,000.

The pleasures of the chase first attracted me here; the abundance and variety of game, the rock-ribbed canon, the majostic sweep of mountains, the rashing torrent the broad, unobstructed plains held me in their charm: but, unlike the ‘‘child of the forest,” I have aiscovered that here is more than a happy hunting ground, My gun has ueen placed upon the rack and I am resolved to imitate those who have built homes and accumulated fortunes while I carelessly pursued the capricious antelope. One instance in particular comes to me now like a revelation. 1 was hunting deer in what is now known as the Powder river oil basin, about sixty-five miles north of Cas- per. Luck was against me, and early in the afternoon I retraced my steps to my camp. On the way I was startled by a sound in that solitude like the striking of anaxe, and, turning, I saw a hardy pioneer in the act of staking @ claim. I remember dis- tinctly bow my soul went out in pity to that poor man as I inquired what ke intended to do with his claim. *‘l am going to enter it, answered the pioneer, ana then with pride he added: I have eight other clains in this valloy, and some day they will be worth big money. There is an ocean of oil under our feet, and it won't be loug until the peoplo back in your country find it out. If you want to make a fortune, young man, you had batter build a cabin and stop right here. You mark what 1 say.” T laughed at his enthusiasm and wondered how some people could be so dense. Five years have passed swce that September afternoon and the sanguine pioneer has re- ceived $10,000 cash for an interest in his nine claims and a well of superior lubricating oil has been strucle within 100 yards of where I stood unheeding the prophucy. This is not an isolated example of the good, golden luck that hus repaid perseverance in this country. There ave many like instances related by prospectors in different parts of the ol fields. The mining camps of the Big Horn and South Pass countries have made many fortunes and hold h surprises for those who will interest themselves in their de- velopmeat. Making a Fresh Start.

His face wore a distre d look which told of disuppointment. Reverses and misfor- tunes had already drawn deep lines across ung brow. = He told me he had failed in ness; that he had a young wife back in M——who depended upon his efforts, and that he was going west in the hope ol re- establishing himself in business. Two hun- dred dollars represcnted his entire earthiy possessions. What could he have accom- plished with that capital in New York,or Chicago or Omaha? But he went to Casper and opened a small drug store. He made a few friends—they became his customers— the circle widened. He bourht his second bitl of goods and sold them at a profit—he worked vigilantly and kept at it and today he is the proud proprietor of a large storo stocked with all sorts of colored bottles and pain kiters and a marble sodu fountain, His wife is with him—he is happy—prosperous—well-to-do, This pleasing condition of business weal is proverbial from the barber and the butcher to the grocer and the banker, They ail smile and tell you that this year of panic: and bank fallures been to them u year of larger business and safer accounts.

Dynamite is & name that,with the majority of people, is synonymous with murder, ruin and anarchy, lity it is a very useful commodity when properly handled, and will not explode excopt under pecnliar conditions. When a match is applied 1t will merely burn and sizzle as the ordinary red fire does, and ninety-nine times out of *a hundred it may be thrown from the top of a building without doing any harm. To explode the substance there must be the heat and concussion combined, and this can bo ob- tained only by the use of the dynamite cap or fulminate of mercury, dischirged either by a lizhted fuse or by the passage of an clectric current. The explosive substance itself is a mass of sawdust wor lampblack sonked in nitro- glycerine. Either of these two preparations 1s called dynamite. There 18 anoth the latest explosive yet invented, which is ob- tained by mixing the nitro-glycerine with gelatine or any suitable glutinous substance. This is called forcite, and has the double ad- vantage over dynamite of being safe to handle and more effective in- its working. The dynamite is made up in stick or car- tridges, gencrally of half a pound weight, ad beld n hollow paper cylinders eight inches long aud one and a quarter inches in dinmeter. I'or shipment these sticks are put up in ten-pound packages and then five of these packages are placed in a strong wooden case, and in that bulk they are sent out from the factories to the seiling agents. In the retail stores, where the dynamite is for sale, there 13no unusual precaution taken in the storingorit. It is kept under the counter or on the shelves, very much the awe as common salt is; only the de: very careful to keep his dynamite c atone end of the store and the d caps av the other. The latter is the more dangerous of the two, and it is when they are brought together that dynamite is most excellent thing 1o keep a: from. It is the cap and thecartridge that are so often founded in the accounts of oxplosions. I'he prevailing idea about Anarchist Lingg death is that he exploded a cartridge mouth ; instead it was the much smaller just as'deaaly cap, The explosive retails for anywhere from 25 cents to 60 cents a pound, according Lo the per centum of nitro-glycerine sawdust or lampblack.
