Hero Is the queerest bullfrog story
on record: A youth who lives at
High Shoal nays that his father's
cows frequently camo up at night
with the appearance of having been
milked. Ills father got tired of It
and sent him to the pasture with the
cows to catch the thief. Ho spent
the day near enough to the cow tc
watch them, he thought, but at
iight It was still evident that the
cows had been milked again. He
was scolded and sent back with them
the next day. About 11 o'clock, he
says, this cow went Into the canes
mar a small lake and lowed. He
crept through the brush an1 caught
the thief In the act, and he proved
to be a bullfrog as )arge as a hat
The frog was hanging on to the cow's

dinner immensely. Savannah News.

In the hospital for the Insane at
Alieasandrla, Italy, two special rooms
have been arranged, one fitted up
with windows of red glass and red
paint on the walls, the other In blue
throughout. A violent patient Is
first taken to the "blue room" and left
to see what effect that color will have
on his nerves. One rranlac was cured
In les than an hour; another, raving
and furious, was at rcrfect peace
after panslng a day In the calming
shades of his cerulean surroundings.
The "rid room" Is used for the com.
moncst forms of dementia, especially
melancho'y and refusal to take food.
The first patient was one who had
fasted seven days. After only a
three hours' stay In the red room he
became quite cheerful and asked for

about :30 o clock, the cummlssnry aud enmp

through Cumberland was mnde between llhef
of spectators, who occasionally broke Into
good-natured chaff, anil finally gnve a gen

the quarter deck ot his new craft and glided
off down the cnnal, like a new Columbus
looking for fresh worlds ot peace and plenty
for his followers.

TRB "PSSNOWM'S" rASKFR.
The "unknown" in Coxey's army, It Is snld
has turned out to tie P. B. Boiwiro, a fake
Indian doctor and trance medium who was
located last summer In a tent on a vacant lot
In Chicago. Ilonoro is the rankest kind ot a
fmud and Carl Browne was his iiartner and
assistant fakir In Chicago. On the west side
these two are well-kuown characters. The
split in the army revealed the "unknown's"
Identity.
Last June Borxorro conducted a regular
Indian mrdl'ne fake. Theu Carl llrowne ap
peared on the scene in ragged buckskin,
flowing hair and with nut enough money In
his pockets to purchase a bowl of soup. Bos
r.oro used him as a lecturer, nnd later the
two started nn office on West Madison
street. Boatoro's real occupation wus a
'trance medium" and this scheme ho
ntilired to sell his Indian remedies. To
Bdvertise his lakes Bozmiro started a paper
called the "American Patriot," In which he
styled himself a ".combination. doctor, pro-,
phet, magnetic healer, medium, fortuneteller
and astrologer." During the entire summer
Boutnro and Browne sold medicine and lec

in the vicinity, tiring of the toiigu crowds
that flocked around Boraoro s lent, com
plained to the police and the "Great Un

became too cold for the tent show, Borr-oro
rented an old church. There he sient MI0
In renovating the building, placed a stage in

Coxey s Army of the commonweal is once
more on laud. The 00-mile vovage on the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal, while it gBve to
the men rest from walking did not improve
their appearance. At noon Thursday, when
the entire out lit had been unloaded from the
canal boats ot Wlllinmsport. Mil.. It looked
worse thnn nt any other stage of Its existence
not excepting any ot those fearful passages
through mud. slush and lee.
Coxey's nrmv arrived at Hancock, Md., on
Wednesdny afternoon. The reception ac
corded the nrmv there was anything but
cordial. A the bout, passiil under a bridge
crossing the canal. Browne asked If there was
any reception coiiuulttte or any npply ol
Crovislor.. The populace, who lined the
ridge, shouted with one accord. "No," and
also the request that the army May outside
the town. The boats lay outside the limit,
but the Commoiiwenleni swarmed tbo town.
Wlllinmsport was readied Thursday after
noon. There the trniisiorts were unloaded
the wheels ami to put on the wagon beds,
and the army marched for Washington via

After two days of Inactivity nt lingers

IMPROVEMENT IN TRADE.
It Is Not Large, But Is Based on Actual
Increaae in Order for Consumption.
K, G. Dun ft Co.'s "Weekly Review of
Trade," Now York, says: Extensive storms
chocked improvement In business only for a
time, and numerous strikes have not yet ar
rested It. Distribution of products to con
sumers seems larger, for leople nro aldo to
buy. But it Is less dear that the increase ol
working force continues, or that orders for
products will further expand.
The Improvement thus lar realized Is based
on actual Increase in orrlcr for cousumti
tlou, but part ol this was to cover belated
demands for the spring season. A consider
able portion of the Industrial force Is still
unemployed, and with wages much lower
than a year ago, consumption Is uot as large.
New orders Ior future distribution are still
materially restricted by uncertainty about
action at Woehlngtoli and about the extent
ami outcome of labor dllllcultles.
'i he great strike threatened by bituminous
coal miner ami strikes of associated em
ploye on some railroads, make tho future
less hopeful. Out of 2!) textile and mctiil
working concerns which stopped during the
past week aliout a third closed buslines lie
cause ol trouble about wages.

crease, witlca great decrcuse In ImimrlH nnd

and Imports about 4S per cent, smaller.

Housekeepers
Should Remember.
The Government Chemists, after having analyzed
all the principal brands of baking powder in the
market, in their reports placed the "Royal" at the
head of the list for strength, purity and wholesome
ness; and thousands of tests all over the country
have further demonstrated the fact that its qualities
arc, in every respect, unrivaled.
Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift or
prize, or at a lower price than the Royal, as they in
variably contain alum, lime or sulphuric acid, and
render the food unwholesome.

Preserving Timber from Inaerta.
Experiments made In France hats
shown that the reason the sap wood
In timber Is worm-eaten Is because 0
the existence of starch in It. It Is
the sturch that the Inserts are after,
and they do not attack the hard
wood because It contains no starch.
The experimenters hsve devised a
method of preserving timber fram
such attacks- In the spring they cut
a ring through the bark around the
upper end of the truok, and suppress
all buds that are developed there. By
autumn the starch has disappeared
from the sap-wood and the tree Is
ready to be felled. Timber thus pre
paied, it Is said, does Dot become
worm-eaten.
