A mob were about to tar and feather
Mrs. Carpenter In Burnwood and would
have done ao but for the timely Inter
ference of several gentlemen. They are
verv indignant and may yet carry out
their Intentions. All sympathize with
Miss Tucker and there Is much regret
that such a thlna should happen rn their
village. The school board of that place
have met and, through their attorney,
will prosecute Mrs. Carpenter as far
aa the hw will allow. They say that
Miss Tucker's course was fully war
ranted and do not think she punished
the child unduly. Mrs. Carpenter was
arrested by them and taken to Forest
City for a, hearing.
STREET CARS SMASHED.
Aecldents on th Kleetrlo Koad Ara Vary
Numerous.
Friday night marked another of the
tnany collisions and accidents which
have taken place on the electric rail
road lately. Although no one was hurt
It may be considered very lucky that
all came out so fortunate.
The accident was a colllson between
cars 31 and No. 3. No. 31 was going;
north and was followed closely by No.
3.
A passenger on No. 31 wished to
alight and the conductor rang the bell
for the motorman to atop the car. He
did stop It, but so suddenly that the
rear car crew had no nowledge of the
fact, and could not stop In time, and
ran Into No. 31, severely smashing
It. No one was hurt, however, but the
rars will need considerable repairing
before they can be used.

SAGACIOUS MRS. BARNUM.
'
She Made a Careful Settlement Before
. Marrying Kallias Bey.
Bridgeport,-Atlg. 11. Upon the heels
of the news of the marriage of P. T.
Barnum's widow to the Greek, Kallias
Bey, comes the announcement that the
showman's widow disposed of her prop
erty before her second marriage. .
' Mrs. Barnum first disposed of her
residence. 'Marina.' All of her own valu
ables were sent abroad. Soma bulky
furnishing were placed in a -New Torn
safe deposit concern. Horses and car
rlagee were sold In Mew York. . Every
artkoto which came from W aid mere, the
old Barnum home. , was- distributed
among the showman's heirs. Tba li
brary was donated to the Solentlnc sor
clety of this city. . . -
The marriage ' settlement - was so
drawn that In no event does the Bey
come In possession of his bride's prop
erty. -If she dies without children the
property -will revert to her natural
heirs, and the annuity of S40.000 provid
ed by the will of the showman will
cease. She can if she chooses make a
will hereafter and Include or 1m ve out
her husband. '
Kallias ibey and his bride had planned
to sail on the La Touralne for Havre
today. This vessel is on the dry dock
for repairs, and the Hey and his bride
will wait until next Wednesday, having
booked passages on the Normandie.
SUE LOOKED LIKE A JAP.
As She Tripped Aroand Now York and
Sw What She Looked For.
New Tork Sun.
A petite young damsel, with a face of
the most marked Japanese type, who
often tripped along Broadway and oth
er streets within the past fornlght, has
left the city for foreign parts. . No one
who saw her here had any doubt that
she was a Jap; for all of her features,
the eyes, nose, mouth, and foreneaa, re
sembled those of the Tokio damsels
whose features are familiar through
the pictures that have been seen by
everybody. Her costume was unique,
and she carried over her left arm a
light shawl of gay colors, neatly folded.
Upon her arrival here she took up her
quarters at a Broadway hotel, but she
went out every morning after breakfast
on her perambulations. She walked
rapidly with mincing steps, and was
seen not only upon Broadway, but on
the Bowery, along the docks, about the
parks. In the ghetto, and other places
everywhere. iShe would gage curiously
at a tall edifice, or a hotel, or a grand
domicile, would walk through a big de
partment store, would visit the ship
ping, would atop when she saw a gang
of men at work, and seemed to take In
all the spectacles of Interest In the city.
She was seen In the Catholic cathedral,
in two Presbyterian churches, and In a
Jewish synagogue. She was always
alone, but would put a question to any
stranger, man or woman, whom she
chanced to meet. She rode In the trol
leys, the elevated trains, and the horse
cars. -She looked at people frankly, In
an Inquiring way; she scanned the
dresses of the New York women. She
visited theaters, museums, libraries.
and Coney Island. At the hotel she or
dered piquant dishes for dinner, and on
Sunday last she drank something from
a small bottle which she had brought
to the dining table. When the guests
at the hotel asked any waiter who she
was they were told that she was a Jap.
A lady who ventured to address her one
morning at breakfast could learn noth
ing about her, excepting that she spoke
English readily, but with a curious ac
cent. A reporter who had happened to know
of her arrival here a fortnight ago, and
who was aware of many of her move
ments about town, caught a sight of
her last Wednesday aboard a steamer
bound for Europe. It was ascertained
that one of the ship's officers was an
acquaintance of hers. He smiled when
asker Whether she was a Jap. He re
plied that she waa not, but was a real
Scotch lassie, born in the Orkney Isles,
an all-around globe trotter, and a mem
ber of the staff of a London weekly
paper, for which she had come to New
York that she might write a sketch of
the place and tell all about it. Just
before coming here, she had been In
British Honduras, and had written an
account of life there for her paper.
Within a year fhe hud visited half a
dozen or more countries in three con
tinents for the purpose of "writing
them up" for the entertainment of the
British public, as she will write up New
York. She spends but a week or two
In any country, and always gives her
first Impressions of It without caring
what Its own people may think. She
has a bent for traveling, and has never
met with any trouble in all 'her travels.
She had some relatives In New York,
but never went near them. "As for
her accent," said the purser, "It Is the
Orkney Scotch, just like mine, and that
is all there Is about It. As to her look
ing like a Japanese, I cannot say, for
I never was In Japan! but there are
plenty of Scotch lassies up In the Ork
neys who look just like 'her; and you
could not tell her from my wife, for that
rs what she Is! As for the Japanese
shawl. It Is nothing of the kind, but 1s
Highland tartan, and so Is another part
of her dress. She is a ready writer,
but 'hardly ever speaks to anybody. As
to what she thinks of New York, she
has already told me that she likes some
things about It, but she will say more
on the passage over, after her manu
script is ready for the printer. She did
not want to know any of the people,
for she could see through them without
knowing them."
And It Is thus that the romance of
the fabulous Japanese damsel who re
cently tripped all over the city, and
was seen by thousands of New Yorkers,
has been reduced to reality. She Is a
British globe-trotter, who writes for the
press, and Is married to a ship's purser.

NEWS OF OUR INDUSTRIES.
Uappenlngs of Interest to . the 'Staple
Trades and Particularly to the Trad
In Iron. Steal and Anthraolt Coal.
Preparations are being made to start
the Montour Iron and Steel company's
plant, at Danville, Pa. It will be ope
rated by the Heading Iron company.
The plant of the Pennsylvania Tin
plate company at New Kinsington, Pa.,
Pittsburg district, Is now in full opera
tion. The company Is putting in a new
bar mill, suitable for rolling tlnplate
bars.
The new machine sl-op at the Home
stead Steel work of the Carnegie Steel
company, limited, has started with 200
workmen. It Is one of the -most com
plete mill machine shops In the country.
Electrical appliances are provided.
The. Catasauqua (Pa.) Manufacturing
company Is now operating its plant to
full capaolty In all departments. The
company recently started -one of Its
Fullerton mills, and Is giving employ
ment at both plants to 600 men. A
short time ago an advance in wages of
ten per cent, was made.
There Is no questloon that the iron
trade of San Francisco Is partaking of
the boom In the east, though -not to the
same extent. Most of the foundries
seem busy. There is quite a good de
mand also for mining machinery. There
has been some falling off in the matter
of Iron shipbuilding, but the yards are
not Idle.
A modified agreement has been made
between the promoters of the Wash
ington (Pa.) Industrial company and
the lot owners, by which work will be
begun on the erection of the big tin
plate mill this month. The new works
will give employment to about 300 men.
The Improvement company is making
efforts to locate other industries at
Washington. '
A French engineer has suggested a
new method of roughly estimating car
bon In steel by preparing two porcelain
tablets, together with six steel pencils,
having each a different, but known, per
centage of carbon. The piece of metal
to be examined is then drawn over one
of the porcelain tablets, and the same
thing Is done with each of the steel
pencils. The metallic marks' then left
are dissolved with a 12.S per cent, solu
tion of the double chloride,'.' '-f copper
and ammonia, only the carb i remain
ing behind, a comparison showing
which of the pencils mifkf. nearly has
the same composition ,.,b(fhe metal
tested. ,,,
It is estimated by a railroad official
who has Investigated the subject that
recent contracts and pending orders
for freight equipment aniount to at
least 8,000 cars. Most of the contracts
have gone to the well-known large
companies. In addition to the order for
500 cars recently glvin by the Clev.
land, Lorain and Wheeling Co the Michigan-Peninsular
Car company, the
same road has contracted with the
Wells & French company for 150 cars,
and with the Pullman co r ..iy for the
same number. Phllad. j.itua Stock

Magnetism as a Cnratiie in
Chronic Diseases.
It Is no longer a doubt, but a demon
strated fact, that the power of magnetism
and electricity as used In the cure of
chronlo diseases Is the greatest aux
iliary to medicine that Is known to science
at the present day, and some of the mwt
wonderful cuies have been performed Ly
theproper use of the above mentioned
powers. Dr. F. B. Smith and staff have
employed those powers In the cure of
chronic diseases for many years with the
most remarkable good results, as the fol
lowing case will show: Mrs. Qroate, a
lady about 60 years old, came to Dr. Smith
and staff. She was suffering with strict
ure of the throat for about eight years.
For over six years she had not swallowed
a mouthful of solid food. She had be-m
compelled to live on tea, coffee, milk and
the thlnest kind of soups. She had bean
doctoring for years, but found no relief.
She was told by several ddctlrs that there
waa no cure, that all she could hope for
was death, which would come by degress,
or, In other words, that the passage to her
stomach would close and she would starve
to death. Living In utter despair a friend
called her attention to an advertisement
In the paper of the cures made by Dr.
Smith and staff, and contrary to the ad
vice of the family physician she com
menced taking magnetio treatments, fehc
was told that she had simply thrown her
money away, that no doctor could cnre
her, but despite of all those protestations
she Is today a living testimonial to the
healing virtues of magnetism, for she was
absolutely and permanently cured of her
affliction by Dr. Smith and staff. If you
are suffering with nny complaint call on
those doctlrs at 505 Linden street, opposite
the court house, and be cured. Consulta
tion free from 8 to 5 dally except Sunday.
