It is not very often that a book is writ- ten by a man without hands, and is at the the same time able, as one might say, to . &tand on his own feet. There have been . freaks and nothing mor~. This, however, " was not the case with a very interesting book. Mr. Cooper Chadwick’s “Three Years with Lobengula,” of which every word was wriltten by the author with a pen after he had lost both Lis hands by a gun accident in Mashonaland. It was done with a penholder tied to the stump of his right arm. The stereotyped phrase as to the *facile - pen’’ might sound rather out of the way 1n such a connection as this. At the same time it would nevertheless be quite ap- plicable. The book is a clearly drawn, naturally colored picture of soidiering and ‘wild life in South Africa. Here, for in- stance, is a vivid sketch of the “‘justice” of the gentle Lo Ben,on whom a good deal of maudlin sentiment has been wasted in this country. A man had been guilty of the terrible offense of stealing some of the King's brer. He was caught and this is what happened : The King turned and siowly addressed him. ‘You have dirobeyed the Kinc's commands and drunk his beer. Your ears will not listen to the King's orders, s0_they are of ro further use to yon, Cut off biseurs.” Twoatiendantsimmediately sprang up and cut off the man’s ears close to his head. ‘You have tasted the Kin 's beer with your toncue. Cut out his tongue.’ was the next order, which was promptly carried out. Aiter a little time the King saia: ‘Your nose has smelt the King's beer. Cut off his nose.’ This was faithfully performed by tce two executioners, who appeared to enjoy their sickening work. Finally the King said: “Your eyes have seen the Zing's beer. Cover his eyes.”” This was done by peel- ing down the skin of the forehead until it lapped over thz wretched man’s eyes. The King then waved his hand to bave ° the man *aken out of his presence, and he was Izt to die on the veidtat the mercy o! the wolves and juckals.—Pearson’s Weekly. e — The invention of the organ is very ancient, though it is agreed it’' was littie nsed till the eighth century. It seems to have been borrowed from the Greeks. Vitruvius describes one in his tenth book. The Emperor Julian has an epigram in its praise. 8t. Jerome mentions one with twelve pairs of bellows, which might be heard a thousand paces or a mile, and another dt Jerusalem wh ch mignt have been heard as far as the Mount of Olives. —————— Trunks Moved 25 Cents.

FIERCE FIRE IN THE GLOBE THEATER When Flames Start Behind NOW FOR A GRAND RATIFICATION Republican Leaders Prepar- ing for the Cele- bration. a The Election of McKinley Will Be Ratified in Fitting Style. MAY BE HELD IN OAKLAND. Suggestion That the Great Demon- stration B2 H:1d in the Ban- ner City. Now that the victory of McKinley is an assured fact and the leaders of the Re- publican party in San Francisco have | settled down to enjoy it, there has arisen a desire for a grand raiification worthy of the prodigious success which has crowned the struggle for protection. And such a demonstration there will be within a week or ten days, or as soon as all the returns are in, and the bulk of the people are ready for it. That 8 monster ratification was already in the air was ceriain last night. Itis growing now and before this day comes to a close it will bave crystalied into definite form. Then every Republican organization in town will be informed that the election will be ratified, and it 1s believed they will respond quite as gen- erously as they did when the great day parade passed through San Francisco. The Republican parade committee h:1d a meeting at its headquarters, 24 Fourth street, last nigat, and tne proposition was then made to begin arrangements for the ratification, Colonel Sumner was in the chair and A. de la Torre Jr., the indus- trious secretary, was at his desk as usual. Instead of taking up the ratification demonstration, however, the committee considered bills from the parade, 'and afier deciding to have all bills paid at the Columoia Bank, 236 Bush street, between the hours of 12 and 3 P. M. any day, the commiitiee adjourned sine die. The matter of the ratification and raily was lefi to the Republican State Central Committee and the Republican County Committee, as it appeared to be whoily within the jurisdiction of these bodies, The State Central Committee will meet to-night and will take under consideration the preliminaries of arrangement of the ratification. Colonel Stone will make the suggestion that the ratification be neld in Qukland, for the reason that Alameda County has proved itself to be the banner Republican county of the State. Alameda gave Mc- Kinley a majority of 5000, and thereby saved the State for him. Consequently it is said that this much is due to Oakland, and a strong effort will be made to ratify in that city. A CARLOAD OF Fu0D FISH Partially Successful Attempt fo the Stage There Is a Stampede. THE STAGE MANAGER INJURED St. Louis Visited by an Early Con- flargation in Which Much Dam- age Is Done. S8T. LOUIS, Mo., Nov. 5—The Globe Theater, vet'veen Walnut and Elm streets on Seventh street, was entirely destroyed by fire about 3 o’clock ths morning. ‘When flames were discovered back of the stage at 2:50 o'clock forty persons, men and women, were in the building. The fire spread rapidly, but all the occu- pants escaped, though with aifficulty. William Gray, the stage manager, jumped from the third-story window and sustained fatal injuries. The Garner Hotel caught fire in the rear and was damaged considerably. The loss on the theater building is $15,000, “80 LONG.” The Probable Origin of This Often-Used Phrase, An interesting copy of clearly original verses was picked up in Holloway Jail not long ago; original, that 1s, in substance, although the author may have borrowed a phrase here and there from earlier poets, says Household Words. Oh, liberty, how sweet you are! You sem soMear and et so far; * he heart fof you does fong acain; But still, T at myselt (o blame, xor getring drunk and dofug wrong Has brought me to this doom. So long. The last words of this stanza are evi- dently 1o be read as meaning farewell, for the phrase ‘‘so long’’ has, among work- men and others, entirely superseded every other kind of parting salutation. “Good- by,” ‘‘ta, 1a,” “larewell,” “good-day,” are entirely abandoned in favor of the mys- terious words in question, but we are not aware that they have vreviously been nsed in serious verse. Some say thet the phrase was brought by Tommy Atkins from India, and that it is simply a corrup- tion of the Eastern “salaam,” meaning ‘‘peace be with you.” ut 1t seems rather to come from Aus- tralia, where it is in extensive use among all classes and it probably spings from that sense of comradeship and politgness which prompts similar expressions in French, as “a bientot, *‘a bantet,” which may be paraphrased ‘‘to our speedy meet- ing,” purases which, however conven- lional, are expressive of good will. The Welshman, too, does not think it polite or even lucky to separate from a friend with & nere curt benediction. “See you again,” he will probably cry with unction or utter some equivalent phrase in Welsh. The Cornishman, too, has the same delicate sense of courtesy. And we may fairly guess that the *so long’’ comes irom thie gold mines snd means in effect, ‘1 shall find the time ‘so long’ till I see you again.” —_—— Of the gold coins now in circulation in ‘England a small proportion only bear an earlier date than 1879. —_—— The Hot Mud Found a Paso Robles Has in it an element that seems to be particu- larly cfficacious in the treatment of rheumat- ism and certain blood disorders.

The United States Fish Aquarian car No. 3 arrived on Monday with 200 lob- sters, 100 tautog, 125 diamond-backed ter- rapin and 50 barrels of oysters. The tautog, the black fish of the New was a failure, for the entire lot died on | the way. There were too many of them in the tank. The diamond-backed terrapin is the ter- rapin par excelience of the Chesapeake Bay. 1t is growing very scarce, and at present they sell in the East for about $75 adozen. The Commissioners will deposit them in the brakish waters of the San Francisco Bay region, Humbolds Bay, California, and Yzquina Bay, Oregon, will be stocked w.th ti.e oysters. C. H. rownsend, United States Fish Commuissioner, leaves to-night to superin- tend the works, Over one nundred lobsters died on the trip, but the ninety odd that were spared were in fine condition, and will be imme- diately deposited off the coast of Monte- Ig(;:; where a former planting was made in It akes abont six years for the lobster to attain its full growth, bu' they multi- ply so fast that results should be apparent before a great’ while. The condition and temoperature of the water on this coast has been studied, and it is believed it is an ideai lobster region. Although nothing has been learned of the lobsters deposiied in Monterey Bay in 1888, it is believed they have increased ;.naéerially. and will soon be avauable for ood. —_—— SHE OAUGHT THE SHIP, And She Didn’t Propose to Be Loocked Up as Iusane for Doing It. A Chicago girl was in Scotland. She had made arrangements at the office of the steamer in Giasgow to telegraph ner the hour to be decided upon for the sailing of the ship she intended to take. Then she partook herself to Highland wilds in peace. She received no telegram, but on the day set for the sailing of her steamer she arrived in Glasgow and after leaving her baggage at a hotel went to the steam- er's office to make inquiries. She was told there that the boat was even then leaving the wharfat Glasgow, but by taking train at Greenack she might overtake it at that port. She rushed back to her hotel, saw her vaggage dashed upon a cab, caught the train for Greenock and got there in time to see the ocean liner puiling splen- +idly out to sea. Sneé beckoned to a man with a smell tug, declaring that she must catch the steamer, and in a few minutes u;ora was steaming madly after the big ship. The captain stopped the liner at the frantic gestures of appeal from the men on the tug, and the Chicago girl was helped over the side of the steamer, while the captain stood by and made a few re- marks. A little later the new passenger found herself locked into her stateroom by the stewardess. She ranggher bell, got her key from the outside from the stew- ard, who answered the bell, and when the ship's Joctor came.down to see the pas- senger believed to be insane he found the door locked on the inside. Then the cap- tain came, and at his thunderous order the Chicago girl unlocked her stataroom door. The captain’s demeanor was not childlike nor biand, and his janguage was suited to sailors in a storm. But tue Chi- cago girl stood her ground. 8teexplamed through the blue-sireaked air about the captain that she was no more insane than he was, and that she had a perfect right, in her opinion, to stop an ocean liner. She had engaged her passage on that particular steamer. This was her own stateroom.
