Bat the museum abounds in things that sro of intrinsic interest. There are object lessons illustrating the wonderful freaks of stifle balls. One of these is a section of a •kull with the ball which struck it split in two, one-half going inside and inflicting the wound which caused death, the other half remaining cm the outside between the scalp and the skulL The soldier who received this remarkable wound at Hpottsylvania lived twenty-three days.

Still more wonderful than this case is one where a minle ball struck the soft bone of the nose and divided. Along with this goes the head of the man who put the muzzle of a pistol in his mouth and fired. The ball passed through the jugular vein and stuck fast in the bone, acting as a stopper on hemorrhage from the vein. The would be suicide lived seventeen years before yielding «p his head to make museum visitors marveL

INDIA* BABIES.

The museum possesses quite a collection 6t papooses, picked up by the army surgeons in tba wild west and forwarded. The withered and battered remains have been "cured" by long exposure to sun and wind on the elevated stages where the Indians used to bury, *but they are not pleasant to look upon. The most notable of these papooses is a little dhap, said to have been found in a tree near JLanunie. He is dressed in a suit of blue, upon which the Indian mother has sewed a great collection of buttons. Around the neck Is a string of beads, and on the feet are little embroidered moccasins.

Reminiscences of the Indian wars are numerous. There is the skull of one brave who only succumbed when ho hod boen sabered nine times. At least that must be the conclusion, for the cranium shows nine distinct penetrating cuts from the sword. Of course it is not to be supposed that the white man amused himself by whacking away needlessly at the red man's bead after the latter was hors do combat. The skull belonged to an Araucanion, who was killed by Chilian soldiers. The skull of the favorite squaw of Little Bear, tho Indian chief, is a very good companion piece to tho above. She was killed in Wyoming. In the preserved erailium are seven bullet holes.

One day after tho war closed there came to Washington a one armed veteran. He had a bundle wrapped in paper, and he said it was something that ought to be in the museum. When the wrappings .were taken off there 'was brought to view a human arm. The muscles had dried hard and the skin had been tanned by the action of tho wind and sun. So complete had been nature's process that there was nothing disagreeable tout the looks of the arm. The drying and shrinking of the flesh had left the jagged bone bare at one end, and the Bame causes had clinched the fingers at the other. The veteran's story was that In the battle at Gettysburg a camion ball had taken off his arm. Unconscious, he had been carried to the field hospital, and then to the general hospital Months afterward he had regained his health and bad been discharged. Curiosity prompted him to visit the battlefield and live over his terrible experience. He found, after some trouble, the spot where he stood when the cannon ball disoovered him. It was in a corn field, and there between the furrows was the arm in the well preserved condition apparent. The scientific gentlemen of the museum didn't think it worth while to take tho soldier's affidavit. They saw at a glance that the arm was an Interesting specimen, aside from its history. They took it, mounted it upon two supports In a glass case, and gave it a place of prominence in the museum.

WONDERFUL WORK WltH ARROWS.

Some of tho wonderful accomplishments of the Indians with their arrows are illustrated In a very realistic manner. These arrows had heads made of the iron hoops of barrels. A shoulder blade of a buffalo, with the thin, frail looking arrow head piercing it is shown. Upon clone examination tho victor discovers that the point projects through the outer side of the bone. The only explanation is that the arrow must have parsed through the body of the buffalo and struok the shoulder blade oa the inside. These arrow heads may be taken between the fingers and bent with mm, they are so thin but shot from the bow by the Indian, they went through obstacles which would have stopped a bullet Thoy penetrated bones without fracturing them, and thoy made cuts as clean as the keenest anrgioal blades. The Apache arrow head of •oft iron has pierced where a leaden projectile would havo flattened.

The visitor sees hung up in the cases here and there sections of bones which possess no significance until it is learned that they havo been taken from tho arms or legs of men still living. Incases where balls had shattered the bone, surgeons sometimes preferred the operation of cutting out a section instead of adopting the shorter and, for than, easier method of amputation. One of these excised bones hung up in the museum caxne from tho arm of a veteran who was for years an attache of the institution. He used to Walk up to tho case occasional ty and shake his fist at it. Muscle and sinews had doveloped in place of the missing hone to such an extent as to make the arm strong enough for more than ordinary tun. This man could lift 300 pounds with the arm from which the bono had been taken.

Pension Commissioner Black had one of his arms excised, and there is a considerable portion of it which is only gristle and tnusclo. The bone is gone, and he becomes painfully aware of the fact when he tries to shake hands with 400 or 600 people.

Ka 1333 is a large bone with the splintering about midway, where the bullet struck. The tag says: "Maj. Gen. D. E. 8., United States volunteers, Gettysburg, July 3 amputated in the lower third of the thigh by Surgeon T. B'm. United States volunteers, on the fldd. Stump healed rapidly, and subject was able to ride in carriage July 18 completely Luaied, so that he mounted his horee, in Sept ruber, 1863. Contributed by the subject" It is the kg of Gen. Sickles, who is ctJil ehuerfully stumping about Hew York and Washington. "W. B. 8." la GlobeDemocrat.

A PHILANTHROPIC JOKE.

A Chicago Man Makes a Frolt Woman Happy by a Little Deception.

"How easy it is to main some people happy by deceiving them a littler1 was the philosophic remark of Mr. Jacques Haskins, as he turned from his desk to relate a bit of his recent experience. "There is an Italian woman —a good, clean, hard working woman—who comes up here every day with fruit to sell. One day I was walking on Adams street, I think it was, and I saw ho* walking in front of me with her basket on her arm. Two men were standing in a store door, and I heard one of tiwm say: 'Don't you remember that woman? She used to have a fruit stand in front of my store in Memphis in war times. Her name is Cunio.' "That afternoon when she came into my office I looked a little sharply at her and said: 'Haven't I seen you somewhere before—somewhere besides here in Chicago?' 'I dont know,' said she dubiously 'your face seems sort of natural to me.' 'Let me see,' said I, assuming a meditative posture 'didnt you used to have a fruit stand in Memphis Her eyes brightened as she said she did. 'Right in front of Lowenstein's store? I said. This was a venture, for I had merely taken it for granted that the gentleman who had spoken of her was Mr. Lowenstein, because that was the name on the sign of the store where he was standing, and he looked sort of like the proprietor. But it hit the mark. 'Yes,' said the woman, setting down her basket and looking as tickled as could be, 'that was me.' •That was about—let me see—about twentythree or four years ago,' I said. She moved her lips as if she were making a calculation, and then, all smiles, said: 'Yes, I was there then.' 'Your name is Cunio, is it notP I added. This was the last feather. That I should remember so much about her and even be able to call her by name gave her the greatest joy. Tears even came into her eyes, and we shook hands heartily. "Then I proceeded to make her remember me. 'Don't you remember,' I said, 'I used to go to lunch at that little restaurant just down beyond Lowenstein's, and I used to buy fruit of you, and stand and talk to you almost every day?' She looked at me along time and finally imagination did its work, as it always will, and she remembered me perfectly. You never saw anybody more pleased. If I had been along lost brother she could not have been happier at meeting me. She told me all about her family, every member of which I, of course, remembered more or less distinctly, and all about her life since then, which would make an interesting story to write. Then she made up a big bag of fruit which I let- her give to me, because it seemed to please her so much to do so. Since that I have, however, been a pretty regular customer of hers, and I mean to be as long as she keeps coming. What if it is true that I never was in Memphis in my life? She has told me so much about it that I could go all over the city in the dark now, and I am sure I have given that poor hard working woman as much pleasure as if I had brought to her in fact an old friend."—Chicago News, L,

"Furniture of the Catacombs.

The furniture of the Catacombs is instructive and interesting, but most of it has been removed to churches and museums, and must be studied outside. Articles of ornament,rings, seals, bracelets, necklaces, mirrors, took picks, ear picks, buckles, brooches, rare coins, innumerable lamps of clay (terra cotta) or of bronze (even of silver and amber) all sorts of tools, and in the case of children a variety of playthings were inclosed with the dead. Many of these articles are carved with the monogram of Christ or with other Christian symbols. (The lamps in Jewish cemeteries generally bear a picture of the golden candlestick.)

A great number of flasks and cups, with or without ornamentation, are also found, mostly outside of the graves and fastened to the grave lids. These were formerly supposed to have been receptacles for tears, or, from the red, dried sediment in them, for the blood of martyrs. But later archaeologists consider them drinking vessels used in the agapee and oblations. A superstitious habit prevailed in the Fourth century, although condemned by a council of Carthage (397) to to give to the dead the eucharistio wine, or to put a cup with the consecrated wine into tho grave.

The instruments of torture which the fertile imagination of credulous people had discovered, and which were made to prove that almost every Christian buried in the Catacombs was a martyr, are simply implements of handicraft. The instinct of nature prompts the bereaved to deposit in the graves of their kindred and friends those things which were constantly used by them. The idea prevailed also, to a large extent, that the future life was a continuation of the occupations and amusements of the present, but free from sin and imperfection.

On opening the graves the skeleton frequently appears even now very well preserved, sometimes in dawtling whiteness, as covered with glistening glory, but falls into dust at the touch.—The Century.

Difficulties of Placer MlUiag.w

It will not pay investors nowadays to go into placer mining without looking along way ahead. It is only in countries where there are no farms or arable ground that placers can be mined for any length of time without honuwing and costly legislation. The farmers whose lands are injured by the refuse of the placers washed down the streams are tho ones that make tho trouble, and blackmailers use the cloak the farmer to extort money from the company. In Montana there has been no trouble of this kind, but in California placer mining has been killed, and in Colorado the fight is just beginning between the minors and the farmers. In ont county the farmers are now trying to stop tho running of every ore mill in the county, complaining of the tailings carried down by the streams, and if they succeed the Colorado placers ra." -it as well be given up at once,—Mining Eaginoer in Globe Democrat «•.

WORK FOR GIRLS.

TEMPORARY EMPLOYMENT FOR "EXTRAS" AT GOOD WAGES.

-•iy

Well Paid Situations Going a Begging Daring the Holidays Great Demand far Smart and Pretty Young Ladles*

An Objectionable Feature—The

Law.

Nearly all large New York retail houses hire extra employes for the holiday tradei Nine-tenths of these ''extras" are women. They are hired as clerks and cashiers in dry goods houses, stationery stores and confectionery shops. They are kept busy from the fortnight before Christmas until the week after New Year's day.

Inquiries among leading firms show that no less than 30,000 young women have got temporary employment &4> good wages during the holiday season, and that several thousand more could have found similar service. The number of these holiday "extras" em ployed by individual firms range from 150 to 1,600. They receive better wages than regular employes in similar capacities.

During the season girls working as extra hands have been paid from $9 to $13.50 a week. Regular wages for the same services are from (8.50 to $12.50 a week. Even at the advanced figures it has been almost impossible, several leading firms assert, to obtain the kind of "extras" desired. One large house estimated that their holiday business had fallen at least $15,000 short of what it would have been if it could have engaged as many acceptable girl clerks as it wanted. The superintendent verified this statement by pointing to a score of "want" advertisements which the firm had inserted in the daily papers for a fortnight. He added, however, that the trouble was not lack of applicants in number so much as in kind,^

NECESSARY QUALIFICATIONS.

"What particular qualifications must the girls have?" "They must be able to make change, add simple figures, remember prices, dress neatly, be agreeable, and, above all, have good looks. The last particular is the one in which most of the girls are lamentably deficient You may smile, but good looking shop girls have a great deal to do with trade at all times, and especially during tho holidays. You will always find the biggest crowds in the stores which have the prettiest girls. It is just like artistic show window dressing. People will go where they can see beauty if it doesnt cost them anything extra. This is cold, hard business sense. Don't you suppose that the average man would rather be smiled on by a bright, handseme, stylishly dressed young woman than be transfixed by the frigid stare of a px-im, persimmony feminine person, witlj false hair and a rasping voice?" "Yes, but in the dry goods trade the customers are principally women," was suggested. "My dear boy," the superintendent replied, "you have lots to learn about the psychological order of shopkeeping. Women shoppers are just the ones above all, strange as it mry seem, for whom we are more anxious to have pretty girl clerks. Here is the secret: The average woman hates nothing in this world so heartily as a woman who is better looking or better dressed than herself. Yet there is nothing she will go around the block .quicker to see on the sly. The average woman also likes nothing better than a chance to domineer over some other woman. In the pretty and often stylishly dressed shop girl she has a passive victim. The better looking and better dressed the girls, tho more jealously they will be eyed by women who call them loud, brazen creatures, while furtively taking notes for future use from the fashionable attire of tho girls.

AN OBJECTIONABLE FEATURE,

"One objectionable feature that attends the hiring of girls for their attractiveness alone must not be lost sight of. The most successful shoplifters in this city are those who are in league with saleswomen. Our losses from that source are incalculable, and shoplifters working with saleswomen are rarely caught. But so great is the benefit we derive from the pretty facc, that we cheerfully put up with whatever loss attends it.".

In many of the large stores a large number of shop girls from 14 to 16 years of age were noticed, who looked pale and languid, plainly showing the lack of healthy out door exercise. The society for the suppression of vice has made several attempts to restrain the large firms from employing girls, but as the law specifies that girls willing to work cannot be molested, the efforts of the society have failed. The assertion of the society that the influences which surround the girls are demoralizing in the extreme and unfits them for household duties, is not combatted by their employers, who, however, declare that a girl who is compelled to earn her living cannot find abetter way to do so than "clerking" in a store.—New York Commercial Advertiser.

An Ancient Indian Deed.

Public Librarian Bain has now in his possession the original deed by which six chiefs of the Pottawotamies in 1780 conveyed to the Baby family a tract of land on the Detroit river, near the present city of Detroit, 12 "arpents" long by 120 deep, an "arpent" being a French measure of land of an area of about eleven-twelfths of an acre. The document is in French, bears the tokens of the six chiefs, and is witnessed by one Williams as judge of the peace. It bears the indorsement of Gen. De Peyster, who was in command of the British force at Detroit. This curious old document was found among the records at the Baby homestead on the Humber, near this city. A frame is being prepared for it, in which it will be inclosed and exhibited in the library of the Canadian Institute.—Toronto Globe.

An Original After Dinner Speech.

The entertainment was given by an earl, deservedly popular. It was extremely hand* some, and champagne flowed in almost ex* ceasive flood. Theevening was well advanced, when a benignant old gentleman arose to propose a toast. He spoke with entire fluency but aoaiehow be aaid exactly the opposite of what he meant. "I feel," said be, "that for a plain country squire like myself to address this learned company, is indeed to cast pearls before swine." Never was so successful a speech made. He could get no further for many minutes. The swine applauded vociferously, and as though they wou'd never cease. We knew, of course, that the good old. gentleman meant that be was the swine and that we wane the pearl*. But then he had not said so. His meaaing could be gathered, but was not expressed.— Longman's

DISPOSITION OF THE DEAD.

Graveyards aa a Source of Perpetual Polintion—Dangers of Decomposition.

The subject of how to dispose of the dead so that their bodies may not injure the living received great attention at tho recent meeting of the British Medical association. Professor Lowndes, of Liverpool^ead an interesting paper on graveyards as sources of perpetual ^pollution. He stated that he had witnessed the removal of portions of four cemeteries and the whole of a fifth near the city where he lived, and that the sights pr, sented were enough to convince any persor. that a reform in the matter of disposing of the dead shodld be urged by all physicians. In opening graves that were closed

forty

years ago a stench arose that drove away the workmen and polluted the air fcr along distance from the cemetery. He stated that the average British churchyards were "masses of boxed up putridity, and that the dead in them could not be regarded as buried at all" They had been placed in metal "caskets," or in coffins of oak, mahogany, rosewood or woods that would remain sound under favorable conditions for many years. During all this time noxious gases were escaping to poison the air, while liquids were running out that were liable to find their way into streams and wells.

Ordinarily the most dangerous graveyards were those in which the rich were buried. In these bodies were,deposited incased in metal or nearly imperishable wood, which protracted the operation of decomposition. Generally the coffin was placed in a strong box, and not infrequently the latter was deposited in a vault of masonry. The grave itself was filled with earth that would not absorb gases or liquids. This was not burial, but the means of protracting the period of decomposition and decay. He favored cremation, as nearly every person did who had given attention to the different methods of disposing of the dead. He did not believe, however, that the time would soon come when the authorities of the Roman Catholic church would tolerate cremation, and he failed to find many ministers of the Estab— tablished church that favored it. As such was the case, he thought it best to invite the cooperation of clergymen in inaugurating a reform in the matter of burying the dead.

Ministers were presumed to be interested in the welfare of the living, and were persons of intelligence and considerable scientific knowledge. If their attention was called to the matter in

A theatrical manager never likes to have grand opera at his house, for several reasons. There is more risk in this kind of attraction than any other, for the expenses are so much greater that the slightest accident of rain or a bad night sale will eause a considerable loss. Then it injures business before nnd after the engagement. The advertisement of the company cripples the business for two weeks beforehand, and after tho company has gone the house does not recover for three or four weeks. Yet a manager makes very little money during the grand opera season.

The greatest fault he finds, however, is the nuisance occasioned by the number of people in the company, which renders it hard to govern them on the stage. The Italians are the worst. In fact, an Italian chorus is an abomination, and no manager has an honr's peace of mind during the stay of such a crowd. They are ungovernable, filthy in their habits, and they haunt the stage. They smoke cigarettes and throw them carelessly on tho floor, utterly regardless of the danger, and when called to account pretend not to understand. Furthermore, they get iu their dressing rooms and actually cook. They make all manner of excuses for getting into the theatre during the day, and then cook their meals over the gas. They do the same between the acts at night, raising a stench that is fearful. They are the scum of the Italian cities, and hence have no care for cleanliness and do not scruple to commit all sorts of nuisances. There is nothing in a theatrical manager's career so aggravating as an Italian chorus.—Manager in GlobeDemocrat. ,s

Where We Get Epiom Salts.

Epsom salt is the name given in pharmacy to the hydrated sulphate of magnesia, which was obtained over 200 years ago by evaporating the waters of some mineral springs at Epsom, England. Sea water was afterward found to contain it, the brine remaining after the separation of the common salt consisting of the sulphate of magnesia and the chlorides of magnesium and calcium. It was readily obtained by collecting the first crystals which formed and washing them with a strong solution of the same salt An excellent quality Is manufactured at Baltimore and in this city from the mineral magnesite, a silicious hydrate of magnesia, which is found in the serpentine of this region. The mineral, reduced to powder, is dissolved in sulphuric acid. The product, after drying, is calcined in

order

to decompose the sulphate of iron. It to then dissolved in water, and any iron present is precipitated by sulphuret of lime. The crystals of sulphate of magnesia are separated mud dissolved again to complete their purification.—Philadelphia Time*.

proper way they could be made

to see the propriety of burying the dead in such a manner that they would not be an offense and a source of injury to the living. An effort should be made to secure the substitution of the wicker basket or a coffin of compressed paper pulp for those now made of enduring wood, metal, stone or cement. Attention should also be given to filling the grave with charcoal or other substances that will absorb noxious gases. Trees, shrubs and smaller plants should be selected for planting in graveyards that will take up the gases that are generated below the surface of the ground.-—Chicago Times. xr
