"Hiawatha's Wedding Feast'' will be given by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, and will prove a pleasing finale for the first evening. The long tenor solo in this number will be sung by Mr. Edward C. ToAvne, a well known oratorio singer, who has appeared with the Anton Seidl Orchestra, the Boston Festival Orchestra, the New York Symphony Orchestra under Walter Damroshn. and the Chicago Svmphony Orches tra.

'V A Strange Disease in Which Hair Resembles a Mass of Snakes. I (Laehine (Can) Cor. New York Sun.) "Did you ever hear of the disease known as plica polonica? Even if you have you can never form an idea of its horror until you have seen a case of it. Indeed, unless you are a medical man, yon are not likely to have an opportunity, and if you are wise you will never wish for one." The speaker was a well known physician who was traveling west from Portland, Maine, where he had placed a patient on board an ocean liner, en route for the European continent. "I had read about it of, course, but first saw a typical case of it two months ago," he went on. "A Lithuanian lady of rank had mixed herself up in one of those half-mad plots against the Russian government, which fanatical patriots are continu ally starting. "She was so far favored by the authorities as to receive a hint of the discovery of her connection with the confederates before arrests were made, and she made her escape to this country. "Her husband, who is one of the meek of the earth, called me up one night and, after begging me to maintain the deepest secrecy, conducted me to an elegantly appointed house, where in a half reclining posture upon a lounge I found my patient. There was some demur before I was allowed to have the lights -fully turned on so that I might make a examination.. "You of course remember the old classical" story of the Gorgon's head with living snakes for hair, which turned the beholder into stone f I can now understand where the original of that idea came from'. The explanation was there before me in that beautiful boudoir. "Surrounding a lovely oval face with a warm olive complexion and strange lilac blue eyes and standing out a good 12 inches from it was a tremendous mass of black hair. Every single hair was about as thick as an ordinary manila clothes lines and as stiff as that rope is when first bought. "There was actually a palpitating 1 - t t 1 P --v 1 S' " "i v . 1 ..... i 1 . 1 . I which-added to the dreadfulness of it. The likeness to. a mass of snakes about the head was very real. "I don't mind owining up to having been an exceptionally long time in counting up the heart beats at her wrist while I was pulling myself together and getting over the shock. I speedily found that every single hair was a tube full of viscid humor and that there were actually pulsations near the scalp, pulsations as marked and as violent as in the case of an abcess or carbuncle. "The strain upon the head of the sufferer must be intense, though the pain from the thousands of heated, suppurating hairs does not appear to be as great as might be expected. One need not be very much of a surgeon to see that when the hair duets upon the scalp have been nflamed and become enlarged so as to allow of the free passage of blood and humor the cutting off of the hair becomes ampu tation of a most dangerous kind. In deed, local treatment, of any kind is almost an impossibility, though the disease is not absolutely- incurable. "My patient was, I think, improv ing under, treatment, but acting upon cither a. hint from abroad, from some of her revolutionary friends, or upon a sudden resolution to consult'lier old medical friend, as she told me. she left one day for. Germany. Instruc tions were left "with her landlord to sell the furniture and forward the receipts to a lawyer in Berlin. GROVERCLEYELAND -..(. -Detected the Important Missing Ingredient. (New York Times.) "While Joseph Jefferson was brewring a toddy for himself and his distinguished guest, ex-President Cleveland, he descanted at length upon the high art of preparaing a hot Scotch. "If I do say it myself," observed the host, "I have an especial gift for serving hot Scotch. Billy Florence used to say that I should have been a barkeeper. Xovv try this, Mr. Cleveland, and let me know your verdict." Several times Mr. Cleveland tested the steaming liquid thoughtfully, naming the ingredients as he identified them. Nutmeg lemon watersugar," he mused approvingly. "But I don't imagine you would hold" a posit ion as barkeeper very long." ; 'What's wrong!' U queried Mr. Jefferson anxiously. U: , 1

William Shaffer, a brakeman of Dennison, Ohio, was confined to his bed for several weeks with inflammatory rheumatism. "I used many rem edies," be says. "Finally I sent to McCaw's drug store for a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm, at which 1 -w . . time A was unable to use hand foot, and in one week's time or was as a able to go to work as happy clam."

It would be difficult to show a larger list of unlucky speculations than that made by Robert L. Cutting, who died at his Fifth Avenue residence in 1S!)4, supposedly a millionaire. The report of the state appraiser, made public today, revealed the astonishing fact that, instead of being worth millions, Mr. Cutting died owing over $170,000. There was provided for the appraiser a list of Mr. Cutting's stocjc holdings. It included about 23,000 bonds and 60,000 shares of stock in forty-six companies of almost every variety, but the holdings in fortj'-three of these companies were rated as "absolutely worthless." At the time of MrJ Cutting's death he was a member of the New York Stock Exchange. He was conspicuous in local a flairs when a youngmau, and was one of the most active and aggressive members 01 the committee of seventy appointed to overthrow the Tweed Ring. Cold Comfort From Doctors. Doctors say neuralgia is not dangerous. This is poor consolation to a sufferer who feels as if his face wer3 pierced with hot needles and torn with a thousand pairs of pincers. A word of advice to him: stay indoors and use Percy Davis' Painkiller. The blessed freedom from pain which follows this treatment cannot be told. There is but one Painkiller, Perrv Davis.
