was allowed to proceed on the ltnea
laid down by Mr. Armour, but of lata
these of his men who prefer watches to
overcoats have managed to leave their
timepieces at home when tbey have

It Is stated as a fact that in no In

glected to bestow an expensive gift on
those of his employes whom he has
called to Chicago on business. Tho
watch preference) among his men has
come to be very noticeable, and Mr. Ar

among Armour men that a call to Chi

Unquestioning obedience is generally
a Rood thing to require from subordl

results. Numerous complaints had

When Andrew D. White, now tho
United States ambassador at Berlin,
was our minister to Germany, nearly
twenty yeai-J ago, he received some
oueer letters from Americans, asking
for his liillucaco la their behalf in court
circles.
Perhaps the funniest of all was a
very mandatory epistle from an old
lr.dy IWlng in the West, who Inclosed
in her letter four pices of white linen,
eiu h some six inches square.
"We are goifg to give a fair in our
church," she wrote, "and I am making

not to write too near tbe edge of the
Hiiuares an a seam has to be allowed

Three Italian physicians, Drs. Lus-

tbe disease, is more easily prepared
than Yersin's, is free from bacteria,

It is introduced by injection in small

To the ingenuity of a Frenchman,
raul GifTard, is attributed a "miracle
gun," a repeating rifle, which requires
no gun powder. The projecting force
is liquified air, obtained under pres
sure at a temperature of hundreds of
decrees below zero, thus representing
an enormous expansive power. This
rifle is much lighter in weight than the
ordinary one ana tne steel cartridge,
nine inches long and as thick as one's
thumb, contains 300 bullets, which
may be discharged as quickly or slow
ly as one likes. There is no smoke,
no flash and only a sharp and low re
port. As soon as one cartridge is
empty another can be screwed on in
stantly, 300 shots costing but 3 J cents.
Gieantio Btcel Wire and Hail Trust
FormiDg,
T.ie Capital Invested In the Proposed Pool
Will Exceed $60,000,000
Representatives of the steel wire
and nail manufacturing firms of the
United States, who have for months
been negotiating to form a steel wire
and nail pool, are nearing a conclus
ion of their work.
It is said that about twenty of the
largest steel wire and nail manufactur
ers will enter the pool and that the
capital in vesica win exceeu $00,000,-
000. 1
The legal formalities for forming I
the pool will probably not be com
pleted until alter the holidays. Al
ready many of the small wire and nail
concerns throughout the country have
been brought out and negotiations are
pending for the purchase of others.
According to judge Gary, of Chicago,
T. H. Tenbrouck and others interest
ed the combine will not result in rais
ing the prices to the purchasers of
wire and nails, but will enable the
manufacturers to operate the plants
upon a more economical basis.
The only meeting in connection
with the combine held last week was
that of the directors of the Illinois
steel company. The business of the
meeting was such as usually comes
before the men who are interested in
the company. It was admitted, how
ever, that discussions of the proposed
wire and nail pool took up a great
portion of the session.

Horse Scented Danger.
Sudden Sinking of a Wagon Road Into a
Mine.
Jacob Wagner, a prominent citizen
of Hazleton, narrowly escaped being
swallowed up by a mine cave-in on
the highways on Friday. He was driv
ing along the road near Harleigh
when his horse's hoof suddenly pierced
the surface, causing the animal to
turn aside. As it did so the roadbed
went down 30 feet.
Had the cave-in occurred five
minutes later a loaded trolley car
would have gone down with it. Wag.
ner and his team had just cleared the
spot when the earth went down.
It is now said that woman's hair
is becoming more beautiful in color
every year, and is also growing thicker
and tonger. This is said to be due
to the small light bonnets that women
wear. Certain it is that air and sun
shine improve the color and texture
of the hair. Sun bleaches the hair,
and Venetian beauties always dried
their ruddy locks in the sun, thereby
getting that tint so much admired
cahed Venetian red. Of course, sun
shine will not bleach dark hair, but it
gives a deeper color to all kinds of
tresses.
