She Was One of the Best Known Newspaper Women in America. ’ Mrs. Harries Hubbard Ayer, one of the best known newspaper wowen in America, died from punenmonia Thursdav morning, after less than a week's illness. Born of an old colonial family, she married Herbert Ayer, a Chicago iron magnate, and she was a prominent figure in the most exclusive set at the Western metropolis up to the time of the sudden collapse of her husband’s business. » Penniless and burdened with the support of an invalid husband and the education of two daughters, she turned to her artistic instincts for a livelihood. For some time she was buyer for an art and bric-a-brac concern, then she became interested in the study of cosmetics, making herself so profi- cient in this line that her name was known in nearly every household. For the past seven years she had been on the staff of the New York World. —— Take Vin-1'e-Na and the good effect will be immediate.

As a matter of interest there is but one species of oyster, ostrea virginica, along the eastern coast of North America. The Western coast has at least five species, but only two of these are of importance, and these do not compare with the Eastern shell fish. Thus it is apparent that a Blue Point, a Providence river and a Chesapeake bay oyster are one and the same thing, so far as species is concerned. The difference is merely a matter of en- vironment, a difference in food supply and conditions in growth. The noted Blue Point comes from the Long Island shore, from what was once a natural bed. It gets its name from the little town, of Blue Point, oI which the beds were discovered. These oysters were of handsome shape and extra appearance and at once commanded fancy prices. It was only a matter of time when these and neighboring beds would be worked out, and then it was necessary to resort to ‘“‘seeding’’ or planting’’—that is, covering the beds with young oysters from other localities. The oyster is rich in phosphates, but is almost entirely lacking in fat-making, muscle-building material and those ele- ments which go to make up physical force and vitality. While it is wholesome and easily assimilated, the actual food value of the oyster is not sufficient to rank it with our great food fishes—the cod, haddock, mackerel, ete.— Good Housekeeping. — Tor Christmas shopping the Fauble Stores will meet with your approval.

The Yukon river has some peculiaritiee of its own that are interesting. The sizd of that great river may be misapprebenden by some people. We used to be taught is our geographies that the ‘Missouri to the sea’’ is the longest river in the world, be- ing 4000 miles in length; that the Amazon is the widest, heing 40 miles across at its mouth. Those of us who have been ont of school for some years never heard much about the Yukon, says a correspondent of the Chi- cago Record-Herald. Nevertheless, that great ruffian of a river is within a few miles of the length of the Missouri-to-the sea, and at a point 1200 miles above its mouth is 60 miles across. ‘We have heard much also about the diffi- culties of its navigation in the summer time. The two big companies in the early days, even as late as two years ago, used Indian pilots, changing every 200 or 300 miles, because the Indians knew the chan- nel, and no one Indian knew it for more than the distance in the vicinity of his own native haunts. These pilots were paid as high as $30 a day for their services, and often a steamer was obliged to spend the night at the bank to allow the pilot to go home to see his family. They tried white men finally out of sheer desperation, and they lost their boats or sent them aground for the season. The white men were invariably deep-sea sailors who were pressed into service. The fact was that the Indians knew absolutely no more abont the river channel than one who had never seer it, excepting where it happened to be dodging about the low, wooded islands. For the Yukon never bas kept to one channel for 50 miles for a month at a time. What the Indians did know was how to tell deep water when they saw it. They could tell by the ‘“‘riffles’’ almost to an inch how deep a given spot was, and, having excellent eye- sight, they could see a long way ahead. The crafty patives lorded it over hoat- owners and captains for a long time, how- ever, and many of them grew rich. As soon as Missouri and Columbia river pilots were pot aboard the day of the Indian was past. ——For Christmas shopping the Fauble Stores will meet with your approval.

There is a cure for dyspepsia—and we use the word cure in the strict sense—in Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It is remarkable what a salutary effect this medicine has on the stomach and other digestive organs. If you are dyspeptic take this medicine, and take it now—in advance of the Christmas dinner. Let the Faubhle Stores be your Santa Clans. You will be sure to piease him— man or boy. No More Gifts to Teachers. At a meeting of the Allentown, board of school control a protest was made against the practice of pupils presenting gifts to teachets around the holidays, and the superintendent was directed to see that the laws forbidding the practice be en- forced. \ 0 8 SEREREEEELEK Eel Created Consternation. Specimen Captured for Exhibition at the World's Fair Frightened Women and Eluded Men in Depot at Pittsburg, Pa, There were large doings at the union sta- tion, Pittsburg, a few days ago. A rough house was caused by a monstrous eel get- ting loose and wriggling amongst the legs of bystanders. The fish was one of a lot of one hundred which were being shipped to the Bellefonte batchery of the State Fish Commission, where they are to be kept during the winter and then sent to St. Louis for exhibition at the World’s Fair. When the eel broke jail, fish attendant, baggagemen, hrakemen, and other attaches of the station all made grabs for him. Wriggling like an Oriental dancer he went through their hands like the proverbial greased eel. Terror was added to the excitement by some oue raising a cry that he would bite. Women grabbed their skirts and screamed, and men looked foolish. Itwas a hot chase. The attaches ducked in and out losing their hats and temper in the serim- | mage. Sometimes their hands would close over the eel but not for long, a few wrig- gles and the elusive eel would be gliding over the smooth floor. Finally the at- taches puffing and blowing, and perspir- ing freely, coralled the eel and he was re- turned to his can. Quiet was restored and peace reigned again. Pennsylvania's fish exhibit at the World’s Fair will be the largest ever made at an exposition and will include the eel that started this tale. Twenty-Three in ome Grave. Funeral of Lilly Fire Victims—One Man Cau sed Fatal Jam at Door. In one large trench in St. Bridget’s cemetery at Lilly, Friday afternoon, were buried the bodies of 21 of the Italians who were burned to death last Saturday morn- ing, together with the bodies of the two men who died in the Memorial hospital from the effects of burns. Three of the men now in the hospital are in a very serious condition and their death is said to be only a matter of hours. Coroner Miller this afternoon conducted the inquest into the affair. The inquiry brought ont the fact that the death of the men was due to the action of a man. This man, whose name is unknown, tried to save from the flames a large cot and mat- tress. When he reached the door there was a large number of men immediately behind him. The rush caused the cot to jam in the door and no one was able to pass. Grocers’ Bills on the Doors.
