From One of the Beat Known Insurance Men In Indiana.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 6,1884,

A. Kief or & CoGentlemen—For some time my hair has been falling out, threatening me with baldness. I used Ayer's Hair Vigor, Hall's Hair Renewer and other remedies, with no efleet. My scalp lias always given me trouble, being covered with scales, the result of a scrofulous affection. Recent 1 I was prevailed upon to try Lyon's Kozothlum. The effect was wonderful. Not only was the falling off Of the hair arrested, and a new growth of iialr stimulated in its stead, but the scales were removed from the scalp, which Is no longer feverish and uncomfortable, tout cool and healthful. My hair which was exceedingly gray has resumed its natural color, and Is soft and glossy. I am now using it upon my beard, to which it Is restoring its former natural color, though more slowly than to my hair. I recommend it with confidence as a medicine for thesoalp and a hair tonic and a nair restorer, R. E. BlSARDSIiEY.

The noise of the falling materials was deafening, and the continuous slipping down ol fresh gravel and stones made it impossible for a time to do anything. When at last an effort could be made to extricate the buried men, it was found that one was quite dead and the remaining four seriously injured.

ODD BETS.

Samples of the Novel Wagers Laid on the Presidential Election. Wheeling Cor. of Globe-Democrat. .•

Of novel bets there are quite a number recorded. William Ellis bets Chris. Miller that Cleveland will be elected, and agrees if it so results that he will count every tie on t?e Balti more & Ohio road between this city and Washington. If Blaine is elected Miller is to push a hand cart from Wheeling to Washington over the National pike. A Cleveland drummer who was in the city to day made a novel bet with one of the lady clerks in a store where he sold a bill of goods. The lady is Republican, and of course bet on Blaine'B success. Whether the drummer is for the plumed Knight is not known still he takes his chances on Cleveland. The bet is this: If Blaine wins the lady is to give the gentleman forty-eight kisses, payable in four equal monthl installments. If Cleveland is chosen, tbe drummer is to present the young lady with a sealskin sacque. The bet is eenuine.

Henry Schmulbach, tbe leading brewer of the state, has agreed with the president of the Elm CSrove Motor Line as follows: If Cleveland is elected the former is is to tap one thousand kegs of beer to all comers in case of his defeat to Motor Line man is to haul all people free to Uombrook Park any day Schmulbach directs.

The most curious wager is one wired the Register from Charleston, this state. Alf Burnett, chief of the Eureka Detective agency, bets B. D. Gosborn, a local Democratic politician, that Blaine will be elected by a larger majority in the electoral college than Garfield had. If Burnett wins, Goshorn is to ride a blind mule through the streets of Charleston, accompanied bv a drum corps, from 9 a. m. to 12 m. ff Burnett loses he is to swim the Kanawha river from bank to bank during the same hours, the bet to be paid as soon as the result is known.

A Remarkable Bet.

Fort Worth Correspondence of the Globe Democrat, August 8 1878. At the table of the El Paso tie reporter was introduced in his professional capacity to a big, burly, pleasantfaced manK whose manner indicated that if he wasn't boss of all Texas he had pretty much the biggest share in maintaining her prosperity. The individual in question was Col. J. T. Childesher, proprietor and operator of a stage line from Fort Worth to Fort Yuma, in Arizona Territory. In his idea there were but two great enterprises on earth—the Globe-Democrat and the Fort Yuma stage line. Oh, but he was a jolly kind of a chap, whole-souled and full of vim and fun. Coming up from Fort Worth to Dallas he told how he made a fortune betting on Gen. Zach Tayler's election to the presidency. Said he: "I bet everything I had, money, house and home, farm, pasture land, stock, wagon3, harness, clothes and everything you could think of. As long as I had credit I bet it. Then one day I bet my hat, coat, vest, pants and shoes, and I was five miles from home at that. But I was sure Taylor would be elected. I bet on his elec tion on his election by different majorities on his living to be elected, and had side bets of all sorts and shapes. In those days I used to drive round—this was in Mississippi—with a band of music and a six-pounder cannon, and 1 tell you we had rousing times and stirring speeches. But my man he got elected, as I knew be would, and I calculated when I figured it up—for I had a clerk to keep track of my bets—that I had won $50,000 in gold. I collected all the bets, too. One man didn't like to give up a mule he had bet—it was th6 only mule he had—and so I took his mule and gave him another and a better one, and today he writes me every month and says what a good fellow I am. And when I knew I won I kept open house for a week, and invited the whole county.I had charcoal made by the thousand bushels, and oxen cooked whole in trenches, I don't know how long. I decorated every post, flag-pole,chim-ney, lightning-rod and tree-top in that vicinity with the American nag, and when the flags gave out I sent for more. We fired a salute of thirty-five guns, one for each state then every morning before breakfast, and again in the evening, and I guess I had over seven hundred people at my house for a whole week and more, eating and drinking and making merry. And after I had dedicated all my expenses I had about $6,000 left.

A Pacific Ghost Story.

Pall Mall Gasette. A correspondent in Canton sends us the following story for the spiritualists from the Marshall islands: "The end of last year, or the beginning of this, an American ship, the Ranier, was wrecked on the islands, and about twenty found refuge on them. But their number being too large for their supply of provisions it was agreed that the party should separate. The captain caused a small, twenty-ton schooner to be built of the remains of the wreck, and, taking ten of the crew and a share of the provisions, sailed away for another island of the group, about. 300 miles off. The rest of the crew was left in charge of the first mate, a son-in-law of the captain. The second mate was sent off to make his way to Saigon and appeal for aid. This he did, finally reaching Hong Kong, when the United State corvette Essex was dispatched to th? rescue, carrying the second mate as a guide. Meanwhile the King of the island, on which the shipwrecked men were, who was kind and friendly to them, was full of forebodings as to the fate of the captain's party and second mate said they would never see them again, and so on. But one day he came with different tidings. It seems he was in the habit of holding spiritual communications with his dead wife, by name Olivia. In one of the seances, he had, I suppose, asked her if she could give him any tiding, and hope for his shipwrecked friends. She said that on Sunday a sail would be seen, and they would be rescued. The king brought this news with great joy to the refugees, and with some curiosity they awaited the result. This must have been some four months after they were wrecked. Sure enough, on the following Sunday a sail was seen, but in spite of their efforts to attract attention the ship passed on her course. But the Sunday after that the rescuing ship, the Essex, appeared in sight, ana eventually took them off. This story was related by an officer of the Essex to a friend of mine, who at once came and told it to me. I will add, foi the benefit of any ardent spiritualists or newspaper correspondents who may desire at once to go to the Marshall islands in search of new revelations from savage mediums, or to interview the king, that these islands are in the North Pacific ocean, to the southwest of the Sandwich isles, and that there is very le communication with them.

GREAT EXPECTATIONS.

Eaormous Profits Anticipated from the Pearl Fisheries of Lower California. San Francisco Chronicle.

About 100 years ago Juan Oxio first called attention to the vast sources of wealth concealed in the mud which lay at the bottom of the waters of the Gulf of California. He discovered there immense beds of the pearl oyster and realized great wealth. He fished principally for the black shell (Concha nasar), which is found in great quantities from San Sebastian Bay to the mouth of the Rio Colorado. After his death the industry was followed in a desultory fashion till about 1859.

From that time till 1872 it was pursued in a more systematic manner, the trade, however, being practically monopolized by the agents of wealth European houses, who establiBhei themselves on the lower peninsula and purchased the pearls and shells on the ground as Boon as removed from the water. About that time some of the merchants of La Paz discovered that they could deal directly with Paris, London and Hamburg, and save the profits of middlemen, and the European agents were, so to speak, starved out. Still the fishing was conducted on the old time-honored system of using divers trained by long experience to remain perhaps two,or at most, three minutes under water. In 1875 two schooners, each of about 200 tons, one from Australia, the other from England, went to these waters, liberally equipped with diving apparatus, helmets, rubber suits, hose and life lines, and thirteen boats and boats' crews to operate them. With the aid of these appliances they made a clear profit in six months of $125,000. The merchants engaged in the fisheries purchased the diving apparatus from the schooner, and since that time the divers' helmet has driven the unfortunate individuals who, unlike our politicians, made their living by holding their breath, entirely out of the pearl-fishing fields of labor. But the advantages possessed by the pearl-fishers of La Paz were advantages which might be shared in common with any other persons who could command the capital necessary to go into the same business. The idea of seeing strangers and aliens come in and scoop up from the bed of the' gulf the wealth which they were beginning to regard as their inalienable inheritance was intolerable. Bat how to avoid it was the question. That conundrum was soon

solved by the elevation to the Mexican presidency of General Conzales. That gentleman was applied to, and, by "proper representations," his favorable consideration was secured and given to a plan by which, on the 28th of February, 1884, five concessions were granted to five gentlemen. The concessions give these gentlemen their associates and assigns the exclusive right and privilege of all shellfisheries in their respective zones for the period of sixteen yeara, paying therefor a royalty and export auty in full of all claims of the government, amounting altogether to $10 a ton on all shells exported for the first three years, and $15 a ton for the remaining thirteen years.

The holders of these concessions immediately consolidated their interests, as no doubt was tbe original intention and dispatched Juan Hidalso, armed with powers of attorney and all necessary credentials, to obtain the capital necessary to systematically work one of the most gigantic schemes of monopoly which the world has ever seen Senor Hidalgo's efforts in San Francisco have been successful, and in July last, under the modest title of the Mother-of-Pearl Shell company, a cor poration was formed under the laws of California, with Juan Hidalgo as pres ident, Geo. W. Waltz (general freight agent of the Union Pacific railway) as secretary, and D. Samuels, of the Lace house, R. E. Phillips (the capitalist,) and Julius Jacobs, general agent of the Germania Life Insurance com pany, as directors, with a capital of $500,000. It is hinted that in addition to the foregoing names a number of our prominentcapitalists, among others ex Governor Perkins, are interested as stockholders. As an evidence of the enormous profits to be made by this gigantic scheme, it may be mentioned that for the past twe years the yield of the fisheries conducted with four schooners and twenty boats has been from $200,000 to $250,000 in pearls and about 900 tons of shell worth from £60 to £70—say £65 a ton, or about $295,500, making a gross yield of $542,000 per annum.

The company has now four schoon ers on the fishing grounds, the Porfirio Diaz, the Adriana, the Consuelo and Palom?. The fisheries are conducted as follows: Each vessel carries five 'boats and each boat carrieB a crew of six men—a diver, two men to work the air-pumps, one at the life-line and two at the oars. The vessel having anchored on favorable zrounds, the boats put off from the ships side early in the morning. The diver is lowered and remains on the bottom for two or three hours at a time, and by 3 o'clock in the afternoon he has filled into his iron basket from 7li0 to 2,000 shell. At that hour the shells are opened by the of ficers, who remove and retain in safe keeping the pearls, which are principally what are known as black pearls, of great rarity and valve at oresent. The decks are then cleaned* up, the shells consigned to the hold, and work discontinued for the remainder of the day. The pearls and shells are sold in the markets of London, Paris and Hamburg—principally in London.

Preparations are being made by the company, to send, as soon as possible a large fleet of vessels, equipped with all the improvements in diving apparatus. As a further instance of the enormous powers conferred by the Gonzalez government on its favored monopolies, without any process of law, by force of arms, if necessary, to arrest any person found fishing in the waters of the gulf without a permit or license from Senior Hidalgo and his associates, or their assigns, and to seize their vessels and consign them to the Mexican authorities, to be dealt with according to Mexican law, and all custom house officers on the gulf coast have been instructed to recognize the permits and licenses of the holders of the concession, with the same effect as if issued from the fountain head of the government.

Editor Webb's "Bluff."

Ben Perley Ponre in Boston Budget. Hon. James Watson Webb, who was for many years editor of the New York Courier and Enquirer, was the avowed duellist at the North. His last "meeting" was at Wilmington, Del., with Tom Marshall, of Kentucky. He was not only wounded in the left knee, but on hi3 return to New York he was tried and sentenced to two years hard labor in the penitentiary. Gov. Seward pardoned him, and he renounced duelling but when he wag at Washington, at the time of the assault on Sumner, he was challenged again, as he thus told the story: "I was at Washington at the time of Brooks's assault on Sumner. The Courier and Enquirer came out denouncing Brooks as 'a coward.' Gen. Quitman, a northern man and an old and intimate friend, waited on me and said: 'General, I am sorry to see you.' I knew what it meant and handed him a chair. 'I have a message ior you,' he continued, 'and I am ashamed to bear it, but if I refused I couldn't live in the south.' 'About the Cour-ier-Enquirer paragraph?' I asked. 'Yes,' he said. 'Well,' said I, 'just keep it in your pocket till to night. That paragraph was written in the office. I am responsible for it, and will fight for it, but I prefer to fight for what I have written myself. I sent a letter two days ago, published in the paper this morning. It will be here to-night. It is four times as severe as that paragragh but when that gets here you can take your choice and we will fight to-morrow afternoon at 5 o'clock!' I added to Quitman: 'I am now a church communicant, and have changed my views on duelling. I would not now fight a personal duel—a duel for personal affront. Moreover, I had no personal quarrel with Brooks. He and I dined together at Gov. Atkin's only three days ago. But I will fight for my country and its institutions and principles in private combat the same as armies do, and ask the blessing of God upon the issue. I will fight Brooks to-morrow. Come to me in the morning.' "My offensive letter arriml. Next morning Gen. Quitman waiftd on me and said the South Carolinian, after a two hours' session over my letter, had withdrawn the challenge! I never was so astonished in my life." .js

A Question for tbe Doctors. Fall Mali Gazette. Every now and then facts come to light which seem to conflict strangely with the theories of the doctors. For instance, at Howdon, a dirty, desolate village on Tyneside, a boy was born who at the time of his birth had the following extraordinary number of grandparents and great-grandparents alive: The grandfather and grandmother on the father's side were hearty and well and so were both parents of the grandfather and the mother of the grandmother. The grandfather and grandmother on the mothers side were active and strong and BO were both parents of the grandmother. The boy thus had four grandparents and five great-grandparents alive, each of whom was in active work, earning his or her own livelihood. Yet the village where these hale and hearty grandsires andgranddames live and flourish is one of the most unsanitory in England. Open sewers run down the centre of some of the streets. Until a few years ago the water supply was from one shallow well. Only one solitary scavanger is employed on half time for cleansing, repairing and maintaining all the streets. Houses have been condemned wholesale as unfit for human habitation, to the intense disgust of tbe people. Yet, notwithstanding all these advene conditions, these families live and thrive.

Fishermen In Fraao*.

Boston Advertiser. There are 136 fishermen in Franc?. The coast fisheries provide employment lor only 53,000 of this great force, so that 83,000 French fishermen make their livelihood out of foreign waters. The value of fish captured in 1883 was £4,298,076, of which more than £8,000,000 worth were drawn from outride their own waters. About four fishermen out of eveiy 1,000 are 4r?*hed daring the year,
