Mr. Edisen's Latest
Project.
Spartacus te the Gladiator.
Denver Tribune.
Ill the green-room of the amphitheatre a
little band of gladiators were assembled.
The foam of conflict yet lingered en their
lips, the scowl of battle j-et hung upon
their brews and the large knots en their
classic profiles indicated that it had been a
busy day with them.
There was an embarrassing silence of
about five minutes, when Spartacus, bor
rowing a chew of tobacco of Trifeliatum
Aurclius, stepped forth and thus addressed
them :
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen :
Ye call me chief, and ye de well te call
him who for twelve leug years has met in
the arena every shape of man or beast that
the bread empire of Reme could furnish
and yet has never lowered his sum. I de
net say this te braj;, however, but simply
te show that I am the star thumper of the
entire outfit.
If there be one among you who can say
that ever in public fight or private brawl
my actions did belie my words, let him
stand forth and say it and I will spread
him around ever the arena till the coroner
will have te gather him up with a blotting
paper. 11 there be three in your company
dare face me ou the bloody sands let them
come and 1 will construct upon their phy phy phy
siogetny such cupolas as royal ceriuthian
capitals and entablatures, that their own
mothers would pass them by in the bread
light of high neon unrecognized.
And yet I was net always thus, a hired
butcher the savage chief of still mere
savage war.
My ancestors came from old Sparta, the
county scat of Maicus Aurclias county, and
settled emeng the vine-clad hills and cot-,
ten groves of Syrsilla. My early life ran
quiet as the clear brook by which I sport
ed. Abide from the gentle patter of the
maternal slipper ou my overalls, everything
moved along with me like the silent olea
ginous Hew of the geese grease. My boy
hood was one long, happy summer day.
We stele the Reman muskmelon and put
split tacks en the tail of the Reman deg,
and life was one continuous hallelujah.
" When at neon I led the sheep beneath
the shade and played the ' Sweet By-and-By
' en my shepherd's flute, there was
another Spartan youth, the son of a neigh
bor, te join me in the pastime. We led
our flecks te the same pasture and togeth
er picked the large red ants out of our iu
destiuctible sandwiches.
One evening after the sheep had been
driven into the corral and were all seated
beneath the persimmon tree that shaded
our humble cottage, my grandsire, an old
man, was telling of Marathon, and Leuc
tra, and Geerge Francis Train, and Dr.
Mary Walker, and ether great men, and
hew a little baud of Spartans, under Gen.
Heward, had withstood the entire regular
army., I did net then knew what war was,
but my check burned, I knew net why,
and I thought what a glorious thing it
would be te leave the reservation and go
en the warpath.
But my mother kissed my throbbing
temples and bade me go soak my head and
think no mere of these old tales and savage
wars. That very night the Remans landed
en our coasts. They pillaged the whole
country, burned the agency buildings, de
molished the ranche, rode off the stock,
tore down the smoke house and rode their
war-horses ever the cucumber vines.
Te-day I killed a man in the arena, and
when I broke his patent clasps and looked
upon him, beheld ! he was my friend. The
same sweet smile was en his face that I
had known when in adventurous boyhood
we bathed in the glassy lake by our Spar
tan home and he had tied my shirt into 1, 1,
7e2 dangerous and difficult knots.
He knew me, smiled some mere, said
"t;v, ta, " and ascended the golden stair.
I begged of the Praster that I might be
allowed te bear away the body and have
it packed in ice and shipped te his friends
near Syrsilla, but he couldn't bee it.
Ay, upon my bended knees, amidst the
dust and bleed of the arena, I begged this
peer been and the Prajter answered : "Let
the carrion ret. There are no noble men
but Reman and Ohie men. Let the show
go en. Bring in the bob-tail lien from
Abysbiuia." And the assembled maids
and matrons and the rabble shouted in de
rision and told me te " brace up" and
" have some style about my clothes," and
" te give it te us easy" with ether Reman
flings which I de net new call te mind.
And se must you, fellow gladiators, and
se must I, die like dogs.
Te-morrow we are billed te appear at
the Coliseum at Reme, and reserved seats
arc being sold at the corner of Third and
Corse streets for our moral and instructive
performance while I am speaking te you.
Ye stand here like giants as ye are, but
te-morrow some Reman Adenis with a
sealskin cap will pat your red brawn and
bet his sesterces upon your bleed.
O Reme ! Reme ! Theu hast been indeed
a tender nurse te me. Theu has given te
that gentle, timid shepherd lad who never
knew a harsher tone than a flute note
muscles of iron and a heart like the ada
mantine lemon pie of the railroad lunch
room. Theu hast taught me te drive this
sword through plated mail and links of
rugged brass, and warm it in the palpitat
ing gizzard of his fee, and te gaze into
the glaring eye-balls of the fierce Numid
ian lien, even as the smooth-cheeked
Reman senator leeks into the laughing
eyes of the girls in the treasury depart
ment. And he shall pay thee back until thy
rushing Tiber is red as frothing wine, and
in its deepest ooze the life-bleed lies
curdled. Yeu doubtless hear the gentle
murmur of ray bazoe.
Hark ! Hear ye the lien's rear in his
den? 'Tis three days since he tasted
flesh, but te-morrow he will have gladi
ator en toast, and don't you forget it.
and he will fling your vertebra about his
cage like the star pitcher of a champion
nine.
If ye are brutes, then, stand here like
fat oxen waiting for the butcher's knife. If
ye are men, arise and fellow me. Strike
down the warden and the turnkey, over
power the police and cut for the tall tim
ber. We will break through the city gate,
capture the war horse of the drunken
Reman, flee away te the lava beds, and
there de bloody work, as did our sires at
e d Thermopylae, scalp the western-bound
emigrant, and make the hen-roosts around
Capua leek sick.
O, comrades ! warriors ! gladiators !
If we be men, let us die like men,
beneath the blue sky and by the still
waters, and be buried according te Gunter,
instead of having our shin-bones polished
off by Numidian liens and amid the
groans and hisses of a snide Reman populace.
He Get Along.
Millionaire Berland landed in this coun
try from Ireland when a boy, and worked
en a farm up the Hudsen for $10 a month.
In 1852 he went te San Francisce, and seen
afterward began work in the mines for 94
a day. Since that time he has made and
lest fortunes. He is represented by The
Daily Mining Newt as saying : " In 1872 I
bought 500 shares of Central for less than
15,000. This mine was seen afterward
cut up and put into California ; and the
redistribution gave me 1,250 shares.
I never paid an assessment en it, for uenc
was ever called for, and in no time the
stock went up te $740 a share, .7hen I sold.
That paid pretty well. Let me see ; I paid
$5,000, and sold for $925,000. That left
me a profit of $920, 000. That was one of
my best speculations, but net quite as geed
as another one that I was in almost at the
same time. I bought 50 shares
of Consolidated Virginia, for $50
a share, and paid two as
sessments en it, which brought the price
up te $56 a share. This mine was also
"cut up" just about this time, and my
500 shares spread out into 2,750 shares. I
held this stock for two years, when it went
up like a flash. I sold out in 1874 for $750
a share. It cost me $28,000 for my stock,
end I sold it for $2,063,500. That was
pretty geed interest en the money, One
Saturday the stock was selling for $350 a
share but I held en. On the next Monday
it was $500 a sh&re. I tell you, it
took a pretty strong head te stand that.
I was getting rich, net at the rate of a
million a minute, as they say, but $100,000
a day or se ; but that was fast enough.
Nobody ever knew anything about
this till it was all ever. I never told my
wife any of my business affairs and never
kept any books. The only book that I kept
was a little pass book that I carried in my
inside coat-pocket, with a record of all
that I bought and sold, and the price. I
never let anyone see this, and never
brought it out except sometimes en a Sun
day afternoon, or when I was alone. My
heavy losses, in 1878, were en Sierra
Nevada and Union. I lest $1,400,000 then
inside of ten days shrunk that much in
depreciation of stock. The veins were
net se wide as was expected. "
A Weman's Schemes.
Nellie McFhearoen, a St. Jeseph Female
Detective, Kuns In a Daring Criminal.
Western (St. Jeseph, Me.) Newa.
Fer the past three months Nellie Mc
Phearson, who has for some time been in
the employ of the St. Jeseph commercial
detective agency, has traveled through the
West and Northwest en business connected
with the agency here, and her success as a
"spotter" shows her te be a shrewd
woman. She is about 32 years old. tall
and slender, with dark hair, piercing black
eyes and altogether very stylish and attrac
tive. Her latest exploit terminated in
Chicago a day or two age, when she suc
ceeded in getting the clinchers en ene of
the deepest-dyed villians in the West and
the leader and accomplice of a gang of
counterfeiters which have infested this
section for the past two years.
Seme months since the managers of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, the Chi
cago, Reck Island & Pacific, the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy, and the Chicago
& Northwestern reads became cognizant
of the fact that a great many bogus local
tickets had been set afloat alenjr their lines
and en application Dectective Murray, of
Chicago, was authorized te work up the
job, and, if possible, bring the guilty par
tics te justice He reported from time te
time that no satisfactory trail could be
struck, and finally Nellie McPhearson was
delegated se assist him in the work. Frem
the outset she was suspicious of the detec
tive himself, and for three months she
watched him like a hawk, though pre
tending te fall desperately iu love with
him, and mere than anxious that
they should succeed in their under
taking in order that they might raise a
" stake," get married and settle down.
Sharp as he was the woman fooled him.
Last week the two spent several days in
St. Jeseph, and while Murray was "work
ing " certain parts of the city, or pretend
ing te be rather, Nellie was closeted in the
office of her employers reporting progress,
which te say the least was anything but
favorable te the "detective" her pre
tended lever, Mr. Murray. Frem St. Jos Jes
eph they went te Chicago, where a few
days' secret investigation placed her in
possession of a perfect whirlwind of evi
dence, and convinced her that " Detec
tive" Murray was the very man who had set
afloat the bogus railroad tickets. Then
she set her trap, gave the detective an of
ficial surprise in his rooms at the hotel,
and as a result he new plays checkers
with his nose in a Chicago jail.
The Ben Hill Scandal.
Jeniie Raymond Haunting tne Senate Cor
ridors and Committee-Beems With Hrr
Babe.
The scandal of which Ben Hill is the cen
tral figure still agitates Washington gos
sips. The woman Jessie Raymond says
that when she signed the card acquitting
Senater Hill of the charge that he was her
seducer she was paid thirty dollars by his
son, Ben Hill, jr., and A. D. Banks, his
private secretary, who premised that she
should have mere money and enough te
support herself and her child comfortably,
but that the thirty dollars have all been
expended for beard, and she has
no money new. Last week she
wrote Senater Hill a letter asking
that his premise be fulfilled. As she did
net receive a reply, she addressed his son
and private secretary, reminding them of
the arrangement. These letters were also
ignored. She went te Hill's house and he
refused te see her. She went te the capi
tol, and has been pacing the corridors en
deavoring te intercept him. She has
watched the rooms of the committees of
which he is a member and has haunted
the corridor leading te the room
of the contingent expenses com
mittee, where Senater Hill leaves his over
coat and does his writing. She has
her baby with her each day and
the child identifies her te petsens
about the capiteL as a baby is an
unusual occupant of that building. She
is frequently addressed by strangers and
some have given her money, for she says
her distress is great, and her appearance is
at least pitiful. She has net been able te
catch Hill, as his friends are alleged te
have done scouting for him, and be has
net been seen in his accustomed haunts for
several days. His last visit te his com
mittee room was en Tuesday. Mr. Hill's
secretary remonstrated with Miss Ray
mond and threatened te have her arrested
if she did net leave the capitol. She re
plied that she was willing te be arrested if
it would give her the opportunity te face
Senater Hill in court. She becomes very
much excited when remonstrated with,
and when ordered by a policeman te leave
the capitol she broke into a fury of pas
sion. The sergeant-at-arms of the Senate
placed three policemen in the corridors
around Hill's committee room in order te
prevent her return.
Thirteen at Table.
As the circumstances preceding the la
mentable sudden death of Dr. Fairbank
(the queen's surgeon) have been much dis
cussed, mere especially by the supersti
tious, a correspondent of the Whitehall
Review states the facts of the case as they
came under his own observation Fifteeu
persons were invited by Dr. Zacharie te
dine at his residence in Broek street,
en Wednesday. On the morning of
that day two gentlemen wrote te say
they could net be present. The number
being thus reduced te thirteen, the host
was about te ask an intimate friend te
come, se that the unlucky figure might be
avoided. Just then a telegram was re
ceived from another of the expected guests
te say that he feared he could net get te
Broek street in time for dinner. As theie
was thus a chance of escaping from the un
pleasantness of sitting down thirteen te
table. Dr. Zacharie did net invite another
friend. But the man who had sent the
telegram appeared, and presently every
body remarked upon the ominous number
present. The guests were the Hen. Mr.
Dutten, Mr. Eaten, Dr. Fairbank, Mr.
Merrell Mackenzie, Dr. Alfred Meadows,
Mr. Alfred Cooper, Mr. Puleston, M. P.,
Mr. Heather-Bigg, Mr. Blumenthal, Mr.
Cassala, Mr. Cassala, jr., and myself. With
the host, there were thus thirteen. Dr.
Fairbank, who was the first te sit down
te dinner aud the first te rise from the
table, was warned (and it seems te have
been the right word in this case !) by the
host of the fatal number but he laughed
and said he didn't mind, albeit he had pre
viously told Mr. Heather-Bigg that he
"didn't feel in a dinner mood." Dr.
Fairbank left early, having te catch the
Windser train; and the next morning,
while en his way te Cumberland Ledge,
he complained of illness and died almost
directly.
ilr. Edisen's New Project.
Among the eighty electric lights burning
in Mcnle Park, there are four that appear
en the record as having been aglow con
tinually for ever 1,100 noun. Within a
few days Mr. Edisen says he has found a
means of se reducing or incteasiug the re
sistant power of the carbons after leaving
the muffle furnace as te make them all of
exactly 100 ohms each. He is unwilling
te explain the process new, as it has net
yet been patented. He ascertains the re
sistance of the carbons by the ordinary
method that is, by the aid of the galvano
meter and then, it is said, puts them
through a course of treatment. In a few
weeks Mr. Edisen expects te start for
Butte county, California, te erect some
furnaces by which his new process of
utilizing the tailings of ores cast off by
miners may be put at once te work. It
was learned recentlv that the name of the
organization is the Edisen ere mining com
pany. The company will have a capital
of $350,000, $100,000 of which has already
been paid in. Mr. Edisen will be accom
panied by several mining experts.

personal observation from its first appearance
te the present time, about ten (10) years,
covering the greater portion of the patient's
body and limbs with its peculiar irritating and
itching scab, and te which all the known meth

without benefit, lias completely disappeared,
leaving a clean and healthy skin, under a few
diiys of pietuse application of Uuticura.
I can and de heartily advice all similarly af
flicted te try the remedy which has been be et
fectual in this case.
