trary manner with Venezuela, but reflection had brought about a more favorable understanding, and America would regard with horror a war with those of her own blood and kindred. "Cleveland, whose acquaintance I have the honor to possess." said Mr. Chamberlain, In concluding his address, "bears a high reputation for rectitude and honorable dealings. He Is Incapable of the wickedness of Inciting two kindred nations to strife and bloodshed." Colonel Lake, the Canadian quartermasterseneral. has arrived In London In connection with the plans to strengthen th Canadian militia defenses. He has since his arrival here been In constant communication with the Canadian office, and the details of his mission are naturally kept secret. It is believed that the plana under consideration are not due to "war scare," but to propositions made long before the famous message of President Cleveland to Congress on the Venezuelan boundary dispute. . jrall Calne, the author, has favored the 'Associated Press with an advance copy of the report which he will make at the meeting of tho authors society Monday. In this report he ventures the opinion that nothing in the Venezuelan or Transvaal questions can bo found more liable to breed serious international and colonial disputes than the Canadian copyright question. He iclnts out in his statement tho po'ver that Canada has to embroil England in a quarrel through unfriendly legislation toward th' United States on the part cf the Doxun!on, and details at length how a comp.wJje may be brought about between the differtnt interests. Commenting on the generous treatment which he received while in America, he said: "On my return the lit. Ilon.Joseph Chamberlain, Secretary of State for the Colonies, expressed much gratification t the prospects of an amicable settlement on what threatened to become an awkr j.r Q-stlon. The parliamentary council hjs revised tho draft of the act with great ';doni. and. after considerable research, tins document has been returned to Ottawa, wfcire it is niw in the hands of the Secretary of State, Hon. H. Montague, who believes that the interests o fluthors should be safeguarded. In the meantime, we may congratulate ourselves on having shown Canada a way to protect herself, and yet of adhering to the terms of the Berne convention, siill enabling the United States to retain all of the substantial advantages of the American copyright, at the same time having reached terms permitting an expression of peace and good will towards all of the Interested classes of the Dominion." Itefering to Prof. Goldwln Smith's desire for one copyright law for the whole empire, Mr. Calne said: "That should be our watenwerd until the morning after America abandons her manufacturing clause and joins the Berne convention." In conclusion, Mr. Calne says: "If we have solved the copyright question by considering It solely as a matter between Canada and America, which it is in the main, we have recognized at the same time that It is only one of the dangers that lie between two great countries whose geographic situation may be the caue of many troubles in the future. It Is hard to conceive of anv Just cause for a war between England and the United States, but if war ever takes place it will be because of friction between our great Dominion and the states alongside it. An Englishman cannot rross the Niagara river without realizing to his great pain that the fires which burn to fiercely on Queenstown Heights smolder Kill on both sides of that turbulent water." The news of the death of Prince Henry of Battenberg threw a deep cloud over the court, and the c'aange can only be fairly realized when the state of affairs at Osborne House now Is compared with the rayety there at the opening of the week. On Monday there was a decidedly, festive ecene at Osborne. An amateur performance of Pinero's "The Money Spinner" was then given by members of the court, and was witnessed by the Queen, Princess Beatrice and others of the royal family and all the ladles and gentlemen of her Majesty's household. The Queen greatly enjoyed the p!ece, and so did the Princess, little knowing that at about the time the performance commenced her husband was breathing his last at sea. In fact, the Queen and the Princess were so delighted with the work of the amateur actors and actresses that Invitations were issued for another performance to take place on Thursday. Everything connected with the court Is now changed, and the trades people will be the first to feel the effects of the blow. All the social fetes and functions are canceled during the six weeks mourning, which are to follow the death of Prince Henry, and thi3 means a great loss of business to those who depend upon the expenditures of the court and society for i prosperity. The full state mourning will ast until Feb. 23. It is understood that the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Connaught and the Earl of Iathom. the Lord Chamberlain, are making the necessary arrangements for a semistate military funeral at Windsor. Following the precedent In the case of the Duke of Albany, youngest son of the Queen, who died at Cannes, south of France, in 1SS4, the remains will be brought to Portsmouth, where they will be received with salutes from the batteries and war ships, and will be conveyed thence by rail to "Windsor. Irobably the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Conn-aught will go to meet the cruiser Ulor.de In the channel and accompany the body to port. It has been definitely settled that the remains are to be buried in Whinplngham Church, beneath the royal pew. In accordance with his will. The death of Prince Henry has shown him to be an extremely popular man among these who knew him. and even tho."e who did not have that pleasure have nothing but

kinu words for the soldier who died for Jreat Britain, even if his death was from sickness instead or on tne r.eia or battle, as he would undoubtedly have preferred. His tad end, likned to that of the Prince Imperial of France, has recalled the old story that Princess Beatrice might have been wedded to the son of ex-Empress Eugenie had he not met his death while fighting with the British against the Zulus, and so there is much romantic sympathy expressed fcr ihe wii'owed Princess, who seems to have twice had her heart wrung with sorrow as a result of Britain's wars in Africa. The events of the past few weeks are said to have proved a great strain on the health of the Marqul3 of Salisbury. He looks much fagged and is undoubtedly in need of rest. He was seen ascending the Duke of York's steps from St. James Park very slowly and with evident difficulty Just after the news of tho death of Prince Henry of Battenburg was received. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, was descending the steps at the same moment, and he almost brushed! elbows with the Marquis Of Salisbury In passing him and stared hard at the Premier. But the Marquis did not seem to notice Mr. Chamberlain, and the latter seemed very much puzzled over the Marquis's behavior, for when he reached the bottom of the steps he stopped for a moment or so and watched him as he disappeared in Tall Mall. . Mr. Bartlett, who accompanied Smith M. Weed to London in the interests of the Nicaragua Canal Company, sailed for New York this week. He has been busily enaged in conducting financial negotiations connected with the canal, the nature of which still remains a secret. In talking the natter over he said: "The recent war scare faas done much to hinder my work. But the controversy between Knglandi and the United States haa not Interfered with my mission so seriously as the uproar caused by the German Emperor's action regarding the South African complications. Although these, conditions have delayed negotiations, you may ray that matters are progressing favorably." EDITOR MORSS SPOKE. Annual Sleetlnjr of the Paris Chamber of Commerce. PARI3, Jan. 2k The second annual meeting of the Chamber of Commerce was held at the Cafe IUche to-night. Mr. Sellgman made a speech in which he proposed the prosperity cf the chamber. Hon. S. E. -Jorss, the American consul-general, made a brief speech and Mr. Peartree read a report reviewing tho work of the past year. He sali that the membership had Jest about doubled and that the chamber bad established relations with the Minister of Foreign Affairs. He also explained that the Minister of Commerce had expressed the hope that tho Chamber of Commerce would ultimately be able to help American Importers to secure more favorable treatxnenL In this connection Mr. Peartree reported that It hat ben demonstrated that a much higher duty had been levied on most of the imports of America than had been placed onnrfmllar articles irom other countries. This was given as one of the reasons tyr trsJe between France and America has

not assumed larger proportions. The Chamber of Commerce re-elected Dr. Stephen H. Tyng president and Mr. Peartree was reelected vice president. All the other officials were re-elected for another year. .OTES F1TOM VENEZUELA.

Sleaaase from President Cleveland to President Crespo. NEW YORK, Jan. 26. A special to the World from Carcas, Venezuela, says: General George Uselar has arrived from the United States and has delivered to President Cre3po a message from President Cleveland asking the people of Venezuela to refrain' from violence during the present crisis. A Paris cable reports that the American commission has invited England and Venezuela to participate In the boundary inquiry. In an interview Dr. Rojas, Minister of Foreign Aftairs, authorized the announcement that Venezuela woull gladly assist the commission, and will place at its1 disposal the official records. Venezuela has a committee collecting data from the libraries In Carcas and soon will be ready to present its case. Another Paris cable reports that the English pres3 is incensed at the pretensions of the American committee and that Colonial Secretary Chamberlain says that, though England is Isolated, she nas suthcient strength to assert her rights. Nicholas Bfldle, the correspondent here for the New York Herald, has made a sworn complaint before the American minister of arrest. He was taking photographs in the streets of Laguayra, and was thought to be an English spy seeking information in re gard to the fortifications. The authorities of Laguayra refused to accept his explanation, although he was identified by a colonel In the Venezuelan army. He was taken under escort to Macuto, where President Crespo is, and there he was released. Senors Urdnetta and Mendoza fought a duel with swords, and both were wounded, thought neither was seriously hurt. If the story that ex-President Guzman Blanco has sent a letter to President Crespo saying that he is too old to fight, but offering $1,000,000 to aid Venezuela against England were true, the government here would have published the letter immediately for political reasons. The DIaro de Caracas, semi-official organ, brands General Domlngos Monas as a traitor. It says the recent revolution was organized with money paid him by the present government. Reports come from western points on the coast that the revolutionists are still active there, and that General Recart Is trying to drive the guerrillas into the swamps. Editor Simon Iiarcelo, an American,. now in prison, formerly was a warm friend of President Crespo. He publishes in El Tiempo a letter strongly denouncing the govern ment and asking for the reasons why he is confined. He demands a lawful trial. The question of Englnd treating directly with Venezuela on the subject of the Guiana boundary is discussed at length in the press. The general impression is that to do so would be discourteous to the American commission. The official Gazette accredits Dr. Pietriz as minister to Germany and paln, and is informed on good authority that there is to be a renewal of diplomatic relations with France and Belgium which were severed by President Crespo dismissing the ministers of those countries last April for proposing a mixed tribunal to pass upon foreign claims against Venezuela. Uprising In Haiti. NEW YORK, Jan. SC. A special to the World from Kingston, Jamaica, says: A serious uprising is reported in Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti. After three days rioting in the streets the insurrection was suppressed. There Is general uneasiness throughout the Island. A company of Haitians arrived here on the steamer Ardle, and sailed again after conferring with the exiles here. Agents are said to be secretly fomenting revolution in all parts of the republic, and the government detectives are unable to identltv them. President Hippolyte Is greatly worried. Italians Evacuate Abyssinia. ROME, Jan. 3. News was received here to-day that the Italian forces, which have been besieged at Makalle, Abyssinia, for some time past, had evacuated that place with the honors of war. The news was hailed with great manifestation of relief and Joy throughout Italy. It is believed that this will lead to peaco between Italy and Abyssinia. PLUNKED INTO THE RIVER. Another Draw-Bridge Accident - at Clevelnntl-Two Firemen Injnred. CLEVELAND, Jan. 25. A Are engine while being drawn at a rapid rate to a fire In the lumber district on the Flats at 2:30 this morning, plunged through an open drawbridge spanning the river at Seneca street. Four firemen were on the engine, two of whom Jumped in time to avoid going down. The other two men were precipitated with the engine and horses Into the river, a distance of 'about twenty-five or thirty feet The men, though partly stunned by the fall, managed to reach some bridge piling and were then rescued by their comrades, who had Jumped in time to save themselves. The two firemen, driver William Burgess and assistant engineer Charles Coolidge. who went down with the engine, were more or less injured, but, it is believed, not fatally. The horses were drowned and the engine lies a wreck at the bottom of the river. The approaches to the bridge are not provided with safety gates. A steep hill leads down to the bridge on the north side, and the engine had gained such momentum In making the descent that it was impossible to stop when the driver discovered that the draw bridge was open. The night was so dark and rainy that the red lights located on each end of the open draw, which had been swung out in midstream, could not be seen. The draw had been opened to permit a fire boat to pass through on Its way to the fire in the lumber district. A fire, which for a time threatened to be very destructive, broke out .early this morning on the top floor of the five-story building at Nos. M to 6 Frankfort street, occupied by the Cleveland Lithograph Company, the Rouse Brass Foundry Company, Hall Safe and Lock Company and a half dozen other smaller concerns. The flames were finally subdued without having reached the adjoining buildings. The loss from fire and water will aggregate between $30,000 and $10,000; fully covered by Insurance. Two hundred and fifty hands are thrown out of employment. Panic In nn Opera House. DUBUQUE, la., Jan. 25. During the progress of a Roman Catholic fair in the opera house at Farley, a village of one thousand Inhabitants, twenty-three miles west of this place, last night, fire broke out and created a pante among the merry makers. In an instant the merry crowd became a struggling mob. anxious to reach open air and safety. The fragile booths were torn down as the surging mass of people crowded to the entrance. Many were trampled on and suffered severe bruises, but no fatalities will result. There was also a panic, though less serious, among the guests of the Loomis Hotel. The opera house block was destroyed, together with the Loomis Hotel and two banks, two small stores and two residences. The loss will aggregate $30,000; only partly Insured. The origin of the fire is Unknown. Watchman Probably Darned. LANCASTER, Pa., Jan. 23.

MOB WANTED HAWK

SCHOOLTEA CLtlv.lt HELD FOR DEATH OF 3IISS GIlACi; 3P CLAM ROCK. The Affair Causes a Sensation at Crawfordnvllle nnd Covington Other State Xew. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CRAWOFRDSVILLE, (Ind., Jan. 8. There Is much excitement in the northwest part of Union township, seven miles from this city, over the death of Grace McClamrock, the sixteen-year-old daughter of L. 13. McClamrock, a prominent farmer of this county. Last Saturday she and Philip Hawk, a school teacher of Coai Creek township, started to go, as they said, to the township teachers' institute at Wlngate, but they did not go there. That night they arrived at the home of her sister, in Coal Creek township, where she remained that night. Next morning she and Hawk started to return home to her father's, but she became very sick, and Hawk took her to his home. On Monday word was sent to her parents, and they at once went to see her. She continued to grow worse and died last night. As soon as she was dead her body was placed in a buggy seat, between two of her married sisters, and taken home, where she lay until this morning, when a post-mortem examination was held. The result was the arrest of Philip Hawk. He was taken to Covington, where he was placed in Jail. Hank is said to have had the girl at Covington last Saturday, so that a doctor could perform an operation that caused her death. After the facts became known there was a disposition to mob the man, and it was only the efforts of the cooler heads that saved his life. Hawk was taken to Covington by the city marshal, who also advised the Infuriated men to let the law take Its course. Hawk is a schoolteacher, and lately sued Fletcher Foster for slander over a charge that he was not acting toward his girl pupils with due respect. Miss McClamrock was a beautiful young woman, sixteen years old. and was attending the distri:t school. Hawk,' is nearly thirty years cf age. SUB RCAD THE CARDS, Made Accusations He Didn't Relish, and So He Got n Divorce. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. COLUMBUS, Ind., Jan. 25. Amos Clark, one of the old citizens of this city, was granted a divorce from his wife, Mary Clark, his equally aged wife, in the Circuit Court this afternoon. On the witness stand Mr. Clark stated that their trouble was due to the fortune-telling proclivities of his sister-in-law. In the evening when he would come down town for a social 'chat with his neighbors, if he did not get home promptly at 8 p. m., this sister-in-law would get down the pack of cards and proceed to Investigate his whereabouts. If the queen of spades turned up it was decreed that he was out with a brunette, and when he went home his wife would accuse him of being out with some dark-haired beauty of a soiled reputation. If it happened to be the queen of diamonds that turned up it was a blonde woman that figured in the case. Whenever these accusations were made he would enter a general denial and trouble would follow. The couple had only been married about two years. IX TUB THROES OF DEATH.

The Jury in the case of the State on the part of John Zimmerman against Ferdinand Effinger, executor, returned a verdict to-day in favor of plaintiff for J1.980, after a four weeks' trial. The suit Involved $3,000, which amount it was alleged the executor had defaulted during his management of the estate. The Jury was required to bring in a special verdict which consisted of four hundred Interrogatories, and it took them about sixtyfive hours to deliberate. The Baldwin heirs have entered suit for possession of property In the business portion of Montpelier, estimated to bi worth &K0.000. Abel Baldwin, the founder of the town, laid it out like that of Montpelier, Vt., setting aside certain corners of certain blocks in the original plat for park purposes under conditions which his heirs now claim have not been compiled with. The allegations of the complaint are that a real estate agent succeeded In getting quit-claim deeds from the 'heirs for the park lots, the object claimed by them being to clear titles. These deeds really conveyed the land, and the heirs now see their blunder and assert that their consent to the deeds was secured by fraudulent representations and without a valuable consideration. They now want the court to set aside the conveyance. The Dnrhtn Reception. Special to the Indianapolis Journal, ANDERSON, Ind., Jan. 23.

POPULAR ASTRONOMY

THK OrEItA GLASS 3IAY DB t'SED IX STUDYING THE SKY'S WOXDERS. With a Good Lens Twenty Time- mu 3Inny Stars Can' De Seen ns vrith the Naked ByeThe Great Dear. May Troctor, in Popular Science. Many are deterred from the stuJy of astronomy because they believe it Is necessary to make observations with a telescope In order to learn anything. While this Is undoubtedly an advantage, yet it is a luxury few possess. A telescope is better adapted for advanced students,, but the most suitable instrument for commencing astronomical studies is within ordinary reach. It is the well-known binoc ular, that a sailor uses on board ship; or, if that cannot be had, then a common opera glass will answer nearly as well. Although not as powerful as a telescope, it has compensating advantages. An opera glass enables us to survey a large region of the sky at one glance, while a telescope. generally speaking, only presents a small field of view. Galileo made his famous discoveries with what was simply on op era glass, and although its use was after wards abandoned for the telescope, yet "on account of Its brilliant illumination of objects looked at.Vand Its convenience of form," Servlss, who is an authority on the subject, tells us that "the opera glass is still a valuable and, in some respects, an unrivalled instrument of observation." The Instrument used by him In making most of tho observations had object glasses one and six-tenth Inches In diameter and a magnifying power of about three and sixtenths times. In choosing an opera glass see first that tho object glasses are achromatic, although this caution Is hardly necessary, for all modern opera glases worthy of the name are made with achromatic objectives. But there are great differences in the quality of the work. If a glass shows a colored fringe around a bright object, reject it. Let the diameter of the object-glasses, which are the large lenses in the end furthest from the eye. be not less than an inch and a half. The magnifying power should be at least three or four diameters. A familiar way of estimating the magnifying power is by looking at a brick wall through one barrel of the opera glass with one eye, while th other eye sees the wall without the Intervention of the glass. Then notice how many bricks seen by the naked eye are required to equal in thickness one brick seen through the glafs. That number represents the magnifying power. See that the fields of view given by the -two barrels of the opera glass coincide or blend perfectly together. If one appears to partially overlap the other when looking at a distant object, the effect Is very annoying. This fault arises from the barrels of the opera-glass being placed too far apart, so that their optical centers do not coincide with the centers of the observer's eyes. Don't buy a cheap glass, but don't waste your money on fancy mountings. What the Rev. T. W. Webb says of telescopes is equally true of opera glasses: "Inferior articles may be showily got up, and the outside must go for nothing." UNDER THE SKY. The right place to make observation! is unquestionably out of doors. With due precautions as to dres nothing need be feared from "night air;" that prejudice Is fully confuted by the well-known longevity of astronomers, even of such as have habitually protracted their watchlngs "till the dappled dawn doth rise." Do. not lose time In looking for objects under such Unfavorable circumstances as twilight, moonlight, and that most treacherous foe of star gazers, the electric light. A very brilliant night is often worthless for planets or double stars from its blurred or tremulous definition; it will serve, however, for irresolvable nebulae which . have no outlines to be deranged; a hazy or foggy night will blot out nebulae and minute stars, but sometimes defines bright objects admirably; never condemn such a night untried. Look for nothing near the horizon; unless, indeed, it never rises muclg above it; nor over or t-o the leeward or a chimney in use unless you wish to study the effect of a current of heated air. In examining faint objects do not prepare the eye for seeing nothing by dazzling it immediately beforehand with a lamp or looking at a book. Give it a little previous rest In the dark if you wish it to do its best, When a star is not to be seen at once do not give it up without trying oblique or averted vision. Turn the eye toward the edge of the field, but keep the attention fixed on the center, where the object ought to appear, and will appear if you are only patient. Professor Servlss says: "The effect of seeing a faint star in this way, in the neighborhood of a large one, whose rays hide it from direct vision, is sometimes very amusing. The little star seems to dart out Into view as through a curtain, perfectly distinct, though as immeasurably minute as the point of a needle. But the instant you direct your eyes straight at it, presto! it is gone. And so it will dodge in and out of slsht as often as you turn your eyes." If you catch a really favorable night, with sharp and steady vision, make the most of It; you will not find too many of them. STUDY OF THE DIPPER. I would suggest as a little experiment In star-gazing with an opera glass, a glance at Ursa Major, otherwise known as the Great Bear in England, or as the Great Dipper in America. Face the north, and If you are not just, sure where the north is try a pocket compass. This constellation consists of four bright stars, which form a sort of oblong, while the other three represent the tail. If it is a fine, clear night, count how many stars there are within this oblong. They are all very faint, but you will be able to see a few, and, with gocd sight, and on a good night, you may perhaps see ten. Next take your operaglass and sweep over the same region, and if you will carefully count the stars it shows you will find fully two hundred; so that the operaglass has in this part of the sky .revealed nearly twenty times as many stars as could be seen without Its aid. As six thousand stars can be seen by the eye all over the heavens, we may fairly expect that twenty times that number that is to say, 120,X0 stars could be shown by the opera glass over the entire sky. Look at the star In the middle of the handle of the Dipper (this handle forms the tall of Ursa Major), and a little attention will show you that the star is double. The larger of thesa two stars is called Mlzar and the smallest Alcor the Horse and his Rider, as tho Arabs say. Your glass will not only show the distance between Alcor and Mlzar, but also their difference In color. When we speak of Mlzar as a double star. It is to be understood that Alcor is one of the components of the double. In the magnifying power of the opera glass Alcor Is at some little distance from Mlzar, while Mizar itself is split up into two suns, respectively white and pale green, and close together. This is. Indeed, the bwt double star in the heavens for the beginner to commence hi observations upon. A larK- number of the douMe stars are perceptible through a good opera glass, and it will afford many a delightful evening's entertainment to search ,for them with this simple Instrument, in this way we can obtain a fair knowledge cf astronomy, with regard to the position of the constellations, the leading brilliants of the sky and many wonders of the heavens, which cannot be seen with the unaided eye. It is pleasant to know tho stars, and to be able, like Milton's hermit, to "Sit and rightly spell Of every star that heaven do show." Prominent Canadian III. CHICAGO, Jan. 25. Ex-Governor Sir Joseph Trutch. of Victoria. B. C, is resting at the Auditorium annex In a rather precarious condition. On his way to England, to report, as his friends say, to the Queen regarding some information which her Majesty desired, he was taken ill on the train, and at this city was removed to the annex. He was unable to receive callers to-day, as he suffers a great deal of pain, although the house physician declares that a rest of several days will remove all possibilities of serious results. Sir Joseph Trutch. with Sir James Grant, made the famous fight for the Canadian Pacific railway. He has been a prominent, figure in Canadian affairs for some time. Killed Ills Wife nnd Himself.

Confederate Produced n Handful of Chan sre Instead of a Slarked Dollar. New York Times. Carl Hertz, the Illusionist, who Is mystifying the audiences la the Music Hall of Olympla, was talking the other day of some of the accidents that sometimes spoil the art of the conjuror. 4,It was in Nashville, Tenn.," he said, "that I experienced a real knock-down blow. I was performing the well-known trick of passing a marked coin into the center of an uncut orange. At least, that's what a good many people thought I was doing. I used a silver dollar, and emphasized the trick by passing the coin into the pocket of some boy whom I bad enticed on to the stage. "I will openly confess that the boy had to be a confederate and that the marked dollar had its fellow In one previously prepared by me. One night, as I was entering the theater, I' looked around for a. likely youth to aid me in my double dealing. I picked a boy and promised to pass him in if he would follow my instructions. T am a eonjuror I said. I want you to put this dollar in your right-hand trousers pocket. I'll. get you a seat in the front row. When, I ask for somebody to come on the stage you must come. Then I will ask you to produce the dollar. "The boy promised everything, and, after making arrangements for him at the door. I left him. When I was ready for the dollar trick I saw my young confederate sitting open-mouthed in the front row. I had prevailed upon another member of thei audience to lend me a dollar marked exactly as was that I had given to the boy. "I passed that borrowed dollar into th orange, cut the fruit open, and out dropped the coin. Then I went on: " Ani now, ladies and gentlemen, I will perform a still more difncult feat, I have passed that dollar into an orange. Now I will ask some member of the audience to step on the stage, and, without going anywhere near him, I will pass the same dollar, marked, as you have seen, into his right-hand trousers pocket. "True to his bargain, the boy stepped t the etage. I stepped opposite Mm, anl asked: " 'Now, sir, have you ever seen me before T " 'No, sir, was the answer. " 'I have here a dollar, I continue T. am going to pass It into your right-hand, trousers pocket. One two three go!' "I made the proper magician's pass, anl smiled confidently upon my audience. 'Now I said to my assistant, 'put your hand into , your right-hand .trousers pocket, and give me the dollar. "The boy looked a bit sheej.!ja but ha dived his fist down. Then, to my unutterable horror, he produced a handful of silver, and said: , "Tve only, got DO cents of It left, sir.

It comes from London. and has the rare merit of truth. Miss Ranks tells it Miss Hanks, the clever American girl whose newsiaper method set London bv the ears even before sn wrote "Campaigns of Curiosity." Ther was a certain young American girl in London who had come over with only the courage of youth, and the point of a pen to keep the wolf away. Sae hadn t tne easiest time in the world, let me tell you. One day she presented herrelf at the o!llce or an editor who had bought "stun. " or her. The great man was busy, but as she Insisted on seeing him the was allowed to enter. She had a bundle of manuscript la her hand, and she begged the editor to read it, and at once. Oddly enough, he consented. It was a story. It was a story about a young woman, writer who purchased a typewriting ma chine on the Installment plan. All went well till the final payment of one pound, was due. fehe hadn t the money. anj couldn't get It. Twice the people who sold tne macbine gave her additional time. At last they sent a man to take it away. At her wits ends the poor girl begged him to wait Just two hours, bhe gave him something to read and she wheedled him a little and he offered to wait. So she sat down at the machine and rattled off a pathetic story of her own struggles with fate and of her fruitless efforts to ralte money to riav for the typewriter. When she finished she put on her bonnet an! went to a newspaper ottice, sold the story, and brought back the money in time to savs the machine. It was a prettily told story and a pathetic one. "Ry Jove," said the fdltor as he nnisnei readine it. "I alwavav said you could do Action, but you never would. Come 'rounl next week and I'll let you know whether we'll publish it. The girl hesitated. "If you please," she said, "won't you de cide now?" Why?" asked the editor in surprise. "Well, said the girl, "you see the mark who came after the typewriter is waiting for the money." That hideous and deathly II demon of sickness constipa tion, is an easy enough tiling to cure if you take the right medicine. Constipation is one of the commonest things in the world. It is really one of the most serious things. Fully nine-tenths of all the ordinary sickness of mankind is due to this one cause. If you place an obstruction in the gutter, it will stop the flow of water, and gradually a mass of poisonous, putrefying matter will accumulate. That is exactly what happens in the digestive organs when constipation begins. Poisonous matter accumulates and is forced into the blood. It goes all over the body and causes all sorts of symptoms. A few of these are dizziness, flatulence, heartburn, palpitation, headaches, loss of appetite, loss of sleep, foul brctht distress after eating, biliousness and eruptions of the skin. These things are unpleasant, but they are not serious. The serious tilings come afterward. Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pelltts are for the cure of constipation. They are tiny, sugarcoated granules, easy to take, mild and efficient in their action. One is a gentle laxative, two a mild cathartic. There U nothing else in the world like them. There is nothing that takes their place. There is nothing just as good,' although lieing and unscrupulous druggists may sometimes tell you so for their own profit.
