ANCIENTS LIVED IN LUXURY.

Discoveries in Crete Show * Remote ClvUiaatlon of a High Order. In an article the North American Review Mr. Charles Waldstein Slade, professor of the fine arts in King’s College,' Cambridge, endeavors to interpret the significance of the results of the excavations recently made in the island of Crete by Messrs. Evans and Hogarth. Nothing, Prof. Waldstein thinks, of so striking a nature has been found - since the days of Schliemann. . The material unearthed in Crete belongs to a period as remote as the fifteenth century before Christ, and it gives the impression of a civilization of a very high order: “People lived in a developed social organization, in ease and comfort, nay, in luxury. The various handicrafts and arts were practiced with great variety and proficiency; wood, ivory and metals were carved, turned, beaten, soldered and combined in the most skillful manner; architecture and paintings and architectural sculpture reached a comparatively very high state of perfection, a stage higher than we have evidence of for several centuries succeeding this era. And now, through the most brilliant discovery of Mr. Evans, we learn that they even possessed the art of writing. For he has found written documents in the Hellenic lands at least seven centuries earlier than the first known monuments of historic Greek writing.”

A WOMAN'S HEART.

Mrs. Samuel G. Dyer Tells a Harrowing Tale of Suffering. M’Carron, Mich., April B.—(Special.) —Mrs. Samuel G. Dyer of this place has given the following interesting letter for publication: “For years I suffered intense pain in the region of the heart. I doctored with the best physicians. Some of them would relieve me for a short time, but the pain always returned. My heart was so bad that I would have to sit up in bed for hours, to get relief. I would lie awake almost all night. I am 62 years of age, and no one can understand how much I suffered with this Heart Trouble. “About a year ago I heard of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and commenced to use them. From the first my condition improved. The pain in my heart gradually grew less, and my general health much better, and now I can say positively that I am entirely cured. I can sleep all night, and enjoy almost perfect health. I thank God for the cure that has come to me through the use of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. “I have thought long over the matter of giving this letter for publication, and am doing so now without any solicitation whatever, and simply because I feel it to be my duty to express the profound gratitude I feel for my recovery, and to let others who may be suffering as I was know how they may find a cure. I know that nothing else but Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured me, because I have taken no other medicine for over a year. I feel better now than I have for many years, and it is all due to the use of Dodd’s Kidney Pills.” Mrs. Dyer’s case and its cure has attracted a great deal of attention, and her letter is a splendid tribute to the curative properties of Dodd’s Kidney Pills.

Chicago’s Vast Expanse.

The capture of an eagle in Chicago recalls attention to that city’s vast expanse. -It is rumored that several large herds of bison are still at large in the northern wards, while traces of living mammoths and remains of a comparatively recent dodo’s nest have been reported from the jungles of the far south. The coming spring will probably see the setting out of several hunting parties after “big game,” while a scientific exploring expedition in search of the traditional mountains of the moon is contemplated.—New York Tribune.

There is more Catarrh In this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be Incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science 'has preven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoenful. It acts directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address F. J.

An Eccentric Man

Columbus, Ind., claims to possess the most eccentric man in the world. This individual is John F. Zuriseller, and his particular oddity is that he believes he exists in a world inhabited by spirits. With the more commonplace workaday world he has little to do, except to draw a pension of sl3 a month from the government, besides buying coffee and meat from the Columbus grocerymen. Mr. Zuriseller talks with spirits, writes the story of their lives, revises their accounts, debates grave questions of state with them, and entertains them at his home. He is now engaged in writing a spirit bible, the first authentic volume of the kind that the spirits have yet had. In Mr. Zuriseller’s spirit world there are many different nations and tribes of spirits. There are the Deutsche, Niggerheads, French Satans, Klippery Flips, Kippery Klips, Mars Spirits, Vigerloos, and many others. These different tribes are frequently at war with each other, and sometimes their battles are fought out in Mr. Zuriseller’s yard, and he is frequently called upon by the spirit generals for advice. Mr. Zuriseller has to be careful about his well. Spirits delight to bury their dead in wells, and unless Mr. Zuriseller was prudent he would have his well full in a short time of a lot of dead spooks. But he has his well covered with tin and sheet-iron, as spirits cannot get through these coverings. Mr. Zuriseller dislikes bad spirits as much as anybody, and he kills a great many of them. All these bad spirits try to climb down in the well and die, but the tin and sheetiron is too much for them, and they Just pile on top of it until some of their friends come and take them away. Mr. Zuriseller believes that in 1896 he was ordained to write a bible for the spirits, and it is thjs work that has been engaging his mind for the past few years. His writing table is covered with partially written pages of manuscript of the book, which is headed, “Greatest Event During the Last Few Years of the Nineteenth Century—New Discovery of Talking to the Spirits, Without Aid of Visions or Dreams, as it Used to Be in Ancient Times Among the Prophets and Seers of Israel. This Discovery Had Led to the Writing of a New Book Entitled the Bible of the Spirits, and Their History.” The book explains all about spirits. It claims that there were 18 original nations of spirits, and it gives

Underground New York

Owing to the rapid transit tunnel in New York city, underground stores are apt to become a feature. The city has extended some distance toward the sky in many instances and now it appears to be bent on going in the opposite direction. Subterraneai arcades are being planned by real estate speculators and they expect to make a big profit from the enterprise. In Longacre square, where the bulk of realty manipulation has taken place recently a combination of wealthy agents who were too late to secure surface space have contracted for the privilege of building structures underground, on a level with and adjoining the new rapid transit station. The

the trinity River.

In his thirteen hour talk against the river and harbor bill Senator Carter, of Montana, made famous the Trinity river. The senator had never seen that wonderful stream and many people never knew of it until they read of it in his speech. The Trinity heads in North Texas, miles to the northward of Fort Worth. It semi-circles that live city and railroad center. The lower suburbs of Fort Worth in the Trinity bottoms are sometimes partially submerged when the river booms. From Fort Worth the Trinity pursues a crooked course though the magnificent alluvial to Dallas. Thence it

MODERN ROBINSON CRUSOES.

Flung Upon Rocky Island, They Make Daring Escape, Two days and nights cast away upon a little ro6k island jutting up through the turbulent waters of Deception pass, on the Pacific coast, was the unusual and unpleasant experience of John Lewis and C. F. Mitchell. Their rescue, half-famished and athirst, was j»carcely less remarkable than the accident itself. Lewis and Mitchell, both experienced sailors, were cruising among the islands of the lower sound in an open center-board sloop, about 26 feet in length. From the waters lying between Whldby Island and the mainland they attempted to pass to the open straits of Fuca through Deception pass, a most dangerous channel, even in summer weather, and at this season, in the full sweep of the winter tides, a regular maelstrom, ▲bout midway in the pass the boat was caught by a whirlpool and swept up against one of the many little rock islands. Lewis and Mitchell scrambled out on the rocks, and while looking for a place where the boat might be safely moored, a twist of water

His Beliefs Uncanny, His Life Weird

their names and descriptions in alphabetical order. His descriptions of spirits are varying. He says that he has solved the problem as to the inhabitants of Mars, and often communicated with that planet, in which respect he is ahead of Tesla, who only talks of communicating with them. It is inhabited only by spirits, he says, and they are shaped like and about the same size as a buzzard. Although his house Is only eight feet in width and twelve feet in length, its owner manages to store away a really fine library, three gasoline stoves, cooking utensils, clothing, and other paraphernalia. In its construction alone the room is a curiosity. The entire wall is composed of two thicknesses of oak lumber, with corrugated iron between. On the side of the wall where he sleeps there are several metal tanks, three by four feet, filled with water. The roof has no tanks, but has several thicknesses of corrugated iron between the boards. His bed is perhaps the most novel piece of furniture in the house, and is simply a box two and one-half by eight feet, and is fastened to the wall about eighteen inches above the floor. It is also made of one-inch oak boards, with the corrugated iron between, and is entered through a sheet-iron door at the front end. There is a space open in the bottom to admit air. On the interior roof of the cage or cell there is a sine tank extending the entire length filled with water. On the top of the cage there are a number of tanks of water of different sizes. When he retires he places his head in a semi-circular tank. The opening which admits his head is about nine by eleven inches. Before retiring he is careful to fill it with fresh water. During the hot summer months he takes this tank to his cellar, which is fitted in exactly the same manner as the room just described. Mr. Zuriseller was born in Switzerland and was brought to this country by his father when he was 6 years old. He attended Notre Dame university for two years and was selected for his precocity as one of the candidates to go to Rome to be educated by the church for the priesthood. His father objected and he did not go. He served three years in the union army during the war and since then worked on newspapers in Chicago and elsewhere up to ten or fifteen years ago, when he settled down in his little hut in Columbus and began his career in the spirit world.—Chicago Journal.

In the Near Future One May Shop Entirely Below the Level of the Street.

arcade idea has spread rapidly along the entire tunnel line. Down town it has taken the shape of plans to erect booths and stores underground, connecting with mercantile and office buildings. The advantage of underground construction has given an added value to property all along the route. According to one enthusiastic promoter, the arcades will be much more elaborate than anything ever attempted in London or Paris. Instead of mere kiosks, where books, papers and flowed can be bought, it is proposed to rent store space to merchants in all branches of trade, so that one so inclined can shop entirely below the level of the street.

takes a general southwesterly course passing Houston and reaching Galveston bay. The greater part of the distance the river is narrow and flows in a channel cut deep. The current is not swift. Except in time of flood the water is clear, but dark-hued. In character the Trinity is entirely unlike most western rivers, which spread over wide channels and abound In sandbars. It is an ideal stream for canalizing. The principal drawback is the fringe of luxurious tree growth along the banks. The cottonwoods and other trees grow old and fall into the river.

swept the painter from their grasp and the boat went whirling down the pass toward the straits. The shores on both sides of the pass are precipitous. There are very few houses along them, and none within sight of the rock upon which the men were stranded. Steamers avoid the pass during the winter season. The situation seemed desperate. There was no fresh water on the rocks and scarcely a scrap of vegetation. After two days had passed without a sign of relief, they found a bit of driftwood on the rock, capable of supporting on the water the weight of one man. Lots were cast, and it fell to Lewis to make the desperate effort. Astride the timber, he intrusted himself to the waters, and, twisting and turning, was carried out to the straits. Outside the mouth of the pass, the man and his singular craft happen to attract the attention of the lightkeeper at Dewey. Lewis was picked up, and with the assistance of the lightkeeper and others went back and brought Mitchell from the rocks. If a lizard were a secret, by the time three women had passed it along it would be an alligator.

To Obtain a Patent.

If a man purchases a homestead from the settler who has lived on the same for four years and then lives on the land for the remainder of the unexpired five years he cannot obtain a patent to the land. The patent vests only in the locator after a five years’ residence upon the land, and in the case of his death before the expiration of the five years in his widow or children, or if there be neither widow nor children, in his legal heirs, providing each of the class named shall live upon the land, cultivate it and carry out the purpose of the original settler so far as complying with the homestead law is concerned. The fees for homestead entry vary in different states. —San Francisco Call. It is astonishing how soon the whole conscience begins to unravel if a single etitch is dropped. One little sin indulged makes a hole you could put your head through.
