NEW CURE FOR VAGRANCY
Scientific Police man's Simple Scheme
to Make Door Sleepem Mo»e On.
The New York police force is credited
with being one of the best in the world, 1
but at least one member of it is a genius |
born for greater things. He has invented j
u method for ridding his beat of vagrants
and doorstep sleepers. This oiiicer is at- '
tached to the Church street station and
patrols in the neighborhood of Washing- '
ton street and the Battery, where cheap '
lodging houses, small beer saloons, "labor I
agencies" and the ■.vuuiue "Weary Wil- |
lie" luxuriantly abound, so he has almost i
daily opportunity to test his inveutiou.
The vagrant is not particular where he
sleeps, so that it costs nothing, and door
ways are favorite lodging places. It was
a sleeper in one <>f these that received a
never to be forgotten snock the other day.
lie was asleep in the doorway of a sa
loon, with his head thrown back against
the jamb and his legs sprawled over the
pavement.
"Watch me make him move on," said
the inventor, llis hand went under his
coattails, and it looked as if he were go
ing for his "gun" in deadly earnest. A
spectator stood petrified, waiting to see
a bloody tragedy enacted, but the blue
coat pulled out a small vial and. leaning
over the sleeper, poured some of its con
tents on his thick, reddish mustache.
The effect was electrical. With a wild
snort and a gurgling gasp the hitherto
nert figure sprang into the air and ciaw
>d at his mouth and throat; the tears
itreamed out of his eyes, which were dis
ended with terror, and he stood gasping
ind making horrible faces and still claw
ng frantically at his inouth and throat,
while the policeman smiled grimly and
ivaited for the customary denouement.
It came in a moment. As soon as the
.errorized doorstep lodger hail recovered
enough of his breath to permit his mov
ng he started hurriedly up Washington
street, sans coat, sans hat, sans every
thing but a consuming desire to put as
much distance between himself ami that
loor as possible. The policeman laughed
heartily as ho watched the rapidly re
creating figure.
"I'll bet be don't come back hers
again," he said. "That dose'll last him
tor a month. Ammonia's a great thing.
It's better than insect powder, and it
saves making arrests. That fellow is
not only obeying the move on ordinance,
but the dose sobered him up to boot."—

The Hard Work of Coiitrriamei,
Let those who are blissfully ignorant
.augh at congressmen for the easy time
they have at Washington. Only those
who have been through the mill know
how hard a congressman must work If
he Is to fulfill his public duties. A
hardworking senator said to me, "I
might have made $50,000 during my
term In the senate If I had given as
much attention to my private business
as I have given to the public business."
The amount of work which Is laid up
>n u member or senator Is simply enor
mous. What with the demand for pen
sions, postotflce documents, applica
tions for promotion or discharge in the
irmy and many other things, a mem
ber's time may be taken up with the
?xactlons of his daily mall. A good
lerk may be of Immense help, but
some senators employ two or three
ind then find there Is a great deal
which they must answer or attend to
In person.
The daily sessions from 12 to about
5 take up half a day, and committee
meetings often take up the other half
for two or three days in the week. It
:s hard to till when the busiest mem
bers, who are never absent from a ses
sion or from a committee meeting, find
time to prepare the elaborate speeches
which they sometimes deliver. It is
not strange, then, that so few members
»112 either chamber are found in the
reading rooms devoted to them In the
Congressional library. When they want
books from that or any other deposi
tory, they have them sent to their
homes. —I nelependent.
Crane Carried Hl» Satchel.
Arthur A. Leeds of Tioga met Ste
phen Crane once under circumstances
which showed how little the novelist
traded upon the fame that came to
him. Mr. I.eeds got off a train at Del
aware Water (Jap. The only man on
the platform was humped up against
the side of the depot gazing into space.
He looked like a farmer's boy. His
trousers were baggy, his coat battered
and his hat rowdy.
"Say, carry this stuff to the hotel for
me, will you?" asked Mr. Leeds. The
man grasped the bags and started In
the wake of Mr. Leeds toward the
hotel.
When the hotel was reached, Mr.
Leeds lost sight of his porter for a few
minutes while he greeted friends.
Looking around for hk baggage, he
saw the man who had packed it to the
hotel sitting on the piazza with his
legs on the railing. He was reading a
book.
"Who's that man?" asked Mr. Leeds.
"Oh, that's Stephen Crane," some one
snld. The next day Crane left the place
before Mr. Leeds bad an opportunity
for explanations.—Philadelphia North

Fate of the Confederate Seal.
"The result of the last Confederate
'ouncil of war held at Abbeville, S.
\, in May. 18(5.", was soon known all
<ver Abbeville, and the generals and
he secretary of war were kept busy for
lours signing honorable discharges for
he tired soldiers, who immediately ap
►tled for them." writes Mrs. Thaddeus
torton. in The Ladies' Hume Journal.
'Daring tin- evening Mr. Benjamin ask
d for a hatchet, and with it he defaced
he Confederate seal. About 12 o'clock
he same night the Confederate party
ontinued its retreat in the direction of
Vashiugton. (la., and while crossing the
'.avannah river in the darkness some one
uggested that the seal be thrown over

A few years ago W hen the smaller sail
ing vessels used to make frequent voy
ages to this port for cotton cargoes the
police authorities had troubles of their
own in trying to stop "shanghai-ing" of
sailors, which was so common at that
time. It was not an easy matter to pick
up a crew, and sailor people were not
friendlily disposed toward the slow ship.s
which came in. Offers of big wages had
to be made, and even this failed some
times to bring the results wanted. Be
sides, the ship people were not inclined to
pay big wages when by a little shrewd
and clever work they could shanghai a
crew for nothing.
In the little barrooms which flourished
along the water front poor unfortunate
devils were drugged and smuggled aboard
ship at night to wake up with excruciat
ing pains when the ship was rocking her
way on the deep. That waking wus not |
a pleasant moment. Negroes were fre
quently gathered in the nets, but the cap
tains seemed to prefer white men. The
custom was dropped somewhat after a
young preacher had been shanghaied and
carried to St. Petersburg. He managed
to write home months later of his adven
ture, when his family and friends had
given him up for dead. The preacher told
of his hard life oti the ship and tlie inves
tigation as to the cause of his being taken
off frightened the shanghai crowd so that
it was less dangerous for strangers to
prowl along the water front.
Once a corpse was shanghaied. There
was a captain of a bark who came here
on frequent trips and who was consider
ed the most brutal man that ever sailed a
ship. He never hired a crew because
they all knew him too well, and he had tc
change his customs in order to keep a
few good men. But the recruits had to
suffer. One night a tramp staggered in
to a water front bar and shivered as he
tried to hug the stove. A man who no
ticed him saw that he was dying. The
poor fellow, killed by drink, staggered in
to the street again and died. Two mer
considered the swiftest things known
here in the shanghai-ing line saw the
chance of a few dollars, and the body
was quickly stolen. The bad captain
had already offered them good pay foi
recruits, but they had failed to find any.
The ship was to sail the next morning.
At midnight the two experts walked up
the gangplank with the muffled figure. It
was stowed away. "We gave him a big
dose." said the men, "and you must not
wake him for 30 hours." They got theii
pay and left the ship.
When the time was up, the captain had
the figure dragged He kicked il
when it did not rise. Other kicks failed
to move it. Then he saw the man was
dead, and the body was tossed overboari]
without ceremony. The captain though!
the man had died aboard ship, and noth
ing was said. when he got back to
Charleston some months later and heard
of the fake he was fighting mad and re
fused to take subjects from Charleston
ever afterward.
The business now is not what it used
to be, and larger vessels with more busi
nesslike methods are sent here for cot
ton. Wit*» the disappearance of the
smaller craft there is little or no shang
hai-ing, and the men who made a living
by drugging unfortunates have quit the
field.—Charleston Letter in Atlanta Con

large overgrowth of hair < 'i " woman's
face was removed by ;
rays. The period of ■
limited to ten minute:. . 1 to-!;
place ten times in one :!.e t .i • -
anil neck being protected .. a ! !
foil mask, except where the ;.;ys were
Intended to fall. The disi:'.:ic-' between
the vacuum tube and the i was be
tween six and seven inches. Five am
peres of current were used at a rate '
of interruption of about GOO a second. ;
After the rays had been applied 14
times the darker hairs appeared to be
losing some of their color, and after an
other week they obviously lessened in
number. They began to be brittle and
pale in color and the skin began to
slightly redden. After 4.1 exposures
the whole of the very thick and elowny
growth had disappeareel, except nine
hairs, which defied destruction for at ,
least a week after the total removal of
the others. After the treatment was ,
stopped only a few thick hairs return
ed, and these were easily removed by
the well known process of the elec
trical needle. Dr. Wood differs from
a great many X ray experts in be
lieving that the X ray treatment can
be adopted without either pain or dis
figurement. He maintains that 20 ap
plications will prepare the ground for j
the more effective use of the electric
needle, and that between 30 and 40 ex
posures are enough to produce the per
manent removal of the hair.

When the court adjourned for the day,

CHINESE PRONUNCIATION. |
Three Simple Unlex Tlial Will Help
You In tile T*i»k.
An acknowledged authority on the
pronunciation of Chinese names as ;
transliterated into English assures us
that there need be no serious difficulty
in sounding the many Chinese names
now appearing in the newspapers if
the speaker will remember that the j
vowels in these names are uniformly j
those of the Italian or continental al
phabet namely: (1) a. always about
as a in far; e, always approximately
ns e in they or then; i, very like i in
machine or pin; o, as either the oof
Bong or how, and u, always as the u
of rule. (12) Also, ii should be remem
bered, every syllable has an independ
ent value and should be given that
value in pronunciation. (3) As for
consonants, they are pronounced ex-,
actl.v as written. These three rules
vill secure as correct a pronunciation
of Chinese names as can be secured
•without oral instruction.
For example, under the first rule
one would say tahkoo for Taku, not
take-you. as one may frequently hear
the word pronounced; lee hoong
dialing for Li Hung Chang, not lie
hung ehang; peh-king for Peking, not
peek-in; shahng-hah-ee for Shanghai,
not shargl.:. tsoong-lee-yahinen for
tsung-li-yair not tsung lie yay-,
men, and so on. I nder the second
rule Tien tsin U pronounced teeyen
tsinn, accenting the yen syllabic, not
teen tsin. ("Jen ral Nieh's name is Nee- ■
yell. The Chinese coin tael is not tale,
but tali-ale. pronounced quickly. Yun
nan fu is yoon-nahn-foo, not yurian
fyu.
In like manner all words are pro
nounced with syllabic distinctness and
with uniform vowel sound. Under the
third rule the province name Szechuan
is sounded, not zekuan, but nearly as
zrhchocahn. touching the eboo very

The Breach of Pronilne Record.
Many records of different kinds have
neon broken of late, but it will take a
long time indeed to break the one that
lias just been made by the Bavarian
gentleman. Mr. Alois I'rankenberg. re
marks the New York Sun. Ilis case
came up the other day in the assizes
court of Gratz. Austria, in which the
testimony against him. the truth of
which was admitted by himself, footed
up a total of 120 cases of breaches of
promises to marry. Young girls, old
maids, widows, brunettes and blonds,
fat and lean, long and short, all fig
ured in his gigantic dossier. And yet
his mode of procedure was simple
enough. After he had spent a fortune
of 100,000 marks leading a wild life in
different countries he returned to
Gratz penniless.
His last resource lay in his good
looks and winning ways. He put an
advertisement in several papers invit
ing ladies desiring to marry "a gentle
man of fortune" to put themselves in
communication with him. And they
did. His bonnes fortunes were phenom
enal. even though his "fortune" was
fictitious. In a short time he had
sweethearts galore, and.to buy furni
ture for nice flats in their castles in
Spain, he obtained money from them.
That is what brought him into trou
ble. After sparking all that was prof
itably sparkablc in Gratz he abandon
ed his beloved ones in that town and
set up in business as a matrimonial
merchant in Munich, where liis success
was still more extraordinary. Then he
returned to Gratz, where he was de
nounced, arrested, tried, convicted and
sentenced to imprisonment for two
years aud six months with hard labor.

Ten to T\v<»nt> Millions «»f Off
itprlnfc In Twenty-four Hours.
The time has passed when bacteria aro
looked upon as unmixed evils. These lit
tle plants owe their somewhat unsavory
reputation in large degree to the fact that
they first attracted general interest be
cause of their power of producing dis
ease. That they are the cause of many
human diseases has been demonstrated
beyond peradventure, and this subject I
lias proved so fascinating that it was for
a long time the only side of bacteriolog
ical phenomena which received any con
siderable attention. As a result, bacteria
have acquired the popular reputation of
being producers of evil to mankind aud
have consequently been regarded as whol
ly undesirable organisms. The studies
nf recent years, however, have been giv
ing more attention to phases of bacterio
logical life which are not connected with
disease. These studies have disclosed to
us a lar;;e series of phenomena where
these little plants are, in various ways, of
direct advantage to mankind. Among
other facts, we have been slowly learn
ing that in the preparation of the food
which comes upon our tables and in its
digestion the bacilli play no inconsider
able part.
Since they are almost inconceivably
minute, bacteria owe their great influence
in nature to their wonderful powers of
reproduction. A single individual may,
in the course of 21 hours, produce from
10,000,000 to 20.000,000 offspring. This
extraordinary power of reproduction in
volves the consumption of a vast amount
of food material, and profound altera
tions are produced in this food as the
bacteria feed upon it. The bacteria are
so small that they probably do not take
the food inside of their bodies, but they
live in the midst of their food and digest
it outside of themselves. This results in
certain chemical changes in the nature of
the food.
These changes are mostly of that char
acter which the chemist calls destructive.
Under the action of bacteria, chemical
molecules which are of a high complex
ity are constantly being pulled to pieces
and reduced to simpler compounds. As
a result of this chemical action there ap
pears in the food mass, upon which the
bacteria are feeding, a variety of new
chemical compounds. These new com
pounds are in part simply byproducts of
the chemical destruction of the molecules
which they have pulled to pieces, but
they are also in part to be regarded as
excretions from the bacteria. The use
of bacteria in connection with food de
pends partly upon their power of destruc
tion and partly upon the nature of these
new compounds which they produce.
In considering the use of bacteria in
food we may notice first a possible value
they may possess in assisting the proc
esses of digestion. The digestion that
takes place in our stomach and intestines
consists in a chemical change in the food.
Now, the stomach and intestines are
crowded with bacteria in inconceivable
numbers. As bacteriologists have studied
the action of these intestinal bacteria
upon such food as we take into our stom
achs they find that the bacteria produce
chemical changes in the food in many re
spects similar to those of ordinary diges
tion. As these bacteria certainly grow
rapidly in the intestines, the question has
naturally arisen whether they may not
aid the digestive juice in the digestive
process even in a healthy individual.
It is not easy to answer this question,
since it is impossible to deprive the hu
man intestine of its bacteria and thus de
termine whether the digestive processes
could goon readily without tlieui. Such
an experiment has been tried, however,
with certain animals. For example, a lot
of chicks have been hatched from eggs
by artificial means, under conditions
which have absolutely excluded bacteria
from their food and from their alimen
tary canal. These chicks have been
compared with others that have been in
cubated under similar conditions, except
that the bacteria have not been excluded
from their system. Upon comparing the
two lots of chicks after a few weeks of
life it has been found that those with the
bacteria in the alimentary canal have
flourished better, made better use of their
food and grown more rapidly than the
lot of chicks from which the bacteria had
been excluded. Now, while all experi
ments in this line have not been absolute
ly in accord, they have resulted in a
strong suspicion that the bacteria which
are present in our food and enter the
stomach with it are not only of no in
jury to us, but are probably of direct ad
vantage in aiding our digestive organs
properly to handle and make use of their
nutriment.
These do not by any means comprise
all the uses of bacteria in food products,
but they may serve to show that bacteria
have a decided usefulness in connection
with our food. Their use in our food is
in two directions —they assist digestion
by the chemical changes they produce in
our food, but their chief and most impor
tant usefulness is in connection with the
flavoring material which they produce.
They furnish us with our vinegar and
several other acid condiments; they
probably develop the flavor of vanilla
and chocolate; they furnish the "gamy"
flavor of meats; they give us all the de
licious flavors of our butters, and they
contribute in large measure to the sup
plying of our cheeses with those flavors
which have made them the world oyer
such popular and useful articles of diet.

A Moody Joke.
Dwight L. Moody, the famous evan
gelist, loved a harmless joke. Once in the
early days at Mount Hermon, while he
was acting as "anchor" for one side in a
"tug of war," he planted himself in front
of a large oak tree, round the trunk of
which, witfcrtut being observed, he slyly
got a turn or two of the rope. Then be
sat there and shook with laughter while
the other side, headed by one of the
teachers, tugged away in vain.

The very cream of agricultural pros
perity is visiting the winter wheat
growers in Kansas this year. A crop
of choice wheat, which in some coun
ties averages over 200 bushels to each
voter, and a failure of the crop of
spring wheat in the northwest, which
has put prices at a fancy figure, in
jures the Kansas granger a good fore
taste of the millennium. There are sin
gle counties in that state which w 11
produce over $5,000,000 value in wheat
alone this year.
Koch'# Researches on Malaria.
In the report just published on his
study of malaria la Italy Professor
Koch says the inf. ctfou of malaria is
especially maintained and propagated
by the relapsing cases which continue
all the year round and form the link
between oi; > fever season ;'.ud the next,
so that tha mosquitoes in the beginning
of summer always find geri. If no
relapse occurred in any of the cases of
malar!.i f;i any riven district, the mos
quitoes wov.kl !.:,d a j ; wins in the be
ginning of si::;imer. and malaria would
become extinct tin re. The professor
ascertained that the so called rostivo
autumnal fevers were identical with
tropical malaria.
HOMEMADE ICE.
Wliiit People May Do When the I'rlce
<■ etm Too II it:li.
"If the courts fail, science may be de
pended upon to knock out the ice
trusts." says a chemist in the Kansas
City Star, "i venture the prediction
that the average well to do family will
be making its own ice inside the next |
two years. For a long time past a
number of the eleven st inventors in
the country have been trying to devise
a small, compact ice machine with a
capacity of from , r iO to."00 pounds a
day that can be operated by an; do
mestic servant, and they have made
sutti' ii ut progress to bring success
clearly in v v it is an interesting
fact that ii . . i.. all the remarkable im
provements which have been made in
large commercial machines during the
last two or three years have suggested
themselves in this tireless search for a
practical household apparatus.
' When I say that success is in sight,
I mean that all the most serious prob
lems have been solved, and the difficul
ties that remain to be overcome are
purely mechanical. Asa matter of fact
four or five small machines are al
ready in the market, but none of them
quite meets the requirements. The ideal
apparatus for use in cities will proba
bly obtain its power from an incandes
cent lamp socket, just like the ordinary
electric fan. The cook will till up the
receiver with water, make the connec
tion and go about her business.
"There is nothing Utopian about this
little forecast. Private ice plants are
already practical for very small com
mercial concerns, restaurants, confec
tioners, etc., and the household ma
chine is one of the advances along the
line of domestic economy to which we
may look forward with absolute confi
dence. By the way, one of the invent
ors who are pegging away at the prob
lem is a New Orleans man, and 1 was
told lately that he had turned out a
very successful working model. I have
said nothing about liquid air, because
that strange product has proved so
tricky and intractable that it is risky
to venture any predictions as to what
may or may not be done with it. An
other substance which has been ex
ploited as the 'refrigerant of the fu
ture' is a so called 'freezing powder.'
It is really nothing new, but an expen
sive chemical salt that is frequently
used in laboratory experiments. It has
no possibilities in practical operation."
FLAX AND FLAxTIBER.
The fiber of the flax plant has been
known from time immemorial and val
ued for its uses in textile manufac
tures. The bad, rich man of the olden
time was clothed in purple and fine
linen, and the most beautiful work
ever wrought by human hands in tex
tile fabrics lias been done with linen
fiber. The process of extracting the
fiber from the stalk has always been a
tedious and expensive one, the fiber
being united and inclosed by a gummy
bark which until recently lias defied
every effort made to secure its decorti
cation rapidly and cheaply. The proc
ess of separation has always been by
rotting, or retting, as the term is (the
placing of the pulled stalks in pools of
stagnant water, some waters supposed
to have special fitness for this work),
and after a period of six weeks or two
months natural decomposition will ef
fect a separation of the fiber from the
wobdy matter. Much hand work being
necessary and cheap labor being indis
pensable, it lias come that this indus
try has never gained a foothold in this
country, but lias been confined to Ire
land, Belgium and some other localities
where the water was supposed to pos
sess some special virtue for this work,
where the climate was mild and moist
and where labor could be obtained at
the lowest price. The cost of thus pro
ducing the fiber has of necessity made
all linen products much higher in price
than those of its competitor, cotton.
It may be here noted that linen fabrics
possess qualities of durability, beauty
and utility which those; made of cot
ton fiber can never attain to. Three
states—Minnesota and the two Dako
tas—produce more flax than any oth
er section of the earth. Until within
a year the flax straw there produced
has never been utilized and has been
burned to be rid of it. A new process,
now in successful operation, separates
quickly and mechanically and chem
ically the fiber in this thrashed straw
and prepares it in tlie shape of a pure
lint for use just as raw cotton is. It
can be so prepared and laid down at
the textile mills of the east for the low
price of 1U cents per pound as com
pared with cotton at S cents. This
means a revolution in textile manu
factures in this country. It means a
new source of wealth for these flax
producing states; it means cheaper lin
en fabrics for all the people.
The Independent Debutante.
An ambitious girl who had just eomo
out was invited to adorn the box seat of
a coach with a young man who was very
wealthy, but who didn't know how to
drive four horses at once. When the lead
er attempted togo sideways, the girl in
sisted on telling the young man how her
brother drove and suggested that he take
a double loop in the reins. The result
was that the wealthy young man was so
chagrined that lie had a hired man drive
home, while he occupied the back seat
with the girl's chaperon, who was a wid
ow. They acted disgracefully and the en
gagement was announced soon after
ward.
Moral.—Never give a wealthy young
man points on anything he doesn't know
how to do.—Dramatic Mirror.
Some of the hardest and meanest
work to be done on a western tarui
consists ill getting rid of the old wil
low stumps, the legacy of willow
hedges planted along the highways
In the pioneer days. These old stubs
possess a wonderful vitality, and about
the only thing which will finish them
up is tire, and not even that unless
the earth is well burned down into the
roots.
