Cesnl Challenges Caaln to Deadly Cemfeat,
Which the letter Is Willing to Acoept.
San Francisco, Aug. 12. Ensterjio
Calderon, consul for Salvador, is oa the
warpath, and seeks the blood, of M.
Casin, piesident of the Central Ameri
can Development company. He has
. challenged Casin to a dael and the lat
ter has'signified his intention of fighting
the consul. While Casin was in com
pany yrith. Consul Ballin of Ecuador,
Calderon passed them on the street and
sneered at Casin. The latter rushed
after Calderon and begged him to fol
low him that they might fight it out.
Instead Calderon sought the protection
of a big policeman and declined the in
vitation. Then Casin called him a
coward, a bobtailed yellow dog and
-other unpleasant things. Still Galderon
would not fight and went home "under
guard of the policeman, later, how
ever, as Casin was dining with (general
Eaeta, a messenger arrived with a chal
lenge from Calderon-to -deadly combat.
fChe messagp also assured Casin that he
(Calderon) was his ' friend and that
-JCaain'sanistaken friendship, for Ezeta
was all that came between them. Casin
said, he did not think it would be neces
sary to fight Calderon with deadly
- weapons; his .fists would be sufficient.
Casin and Calderon were formerly in
timate friends, bufwhen General Ezeta
arrived trouble began. Ezeta is Cald
erod's bitterest enemy, while Casin has
become vry intimate with the fugitive
warrior.
TOR THE GOOD OF HIS PARTY.
. Bestow WJU Allow llio Use of Ills Name ac
a Candidate For lieutenant Governor.
1 k . Chariton, la., Aug. 12. Ex-Lieuf:.
Gov. Bestow, nominated at the Denio-
"cratic state convention at Marshalltown,
after arriving home, expressed himBelf
as follows: "I was not a candidate for
any office before the convention. I was
oa board tho train starting home when
the committee came to me "and an
nounced my nomination. It was
great surprise. I hardly know what to
say. I am a hearty supporter of the
free coinage of silver at a ratio of 16 to
1, without regard to possible action of
other governments. As a free silver
advocate I will advance the doctrine at
all times. At the same time I have the
interest of the party at heart and will do
nothing that might disrupt it. The
platform they adopted placed me in n
position where I do not feel justified in
making a canvass of the state. .Iwijl,
however, neither decline the nomination
nor write a letter of acceptance. I will
allow my name to be placed on the
ticket, not as a matter of personal
choice, but from the fact that I believe
it best for the party that candidates
selected by the convention be candi-
- dates this fall. I cannot make a per
sonal canvass of the state on the plat
,form adopted, but will for the good of
: the party allow them to use my name
as a candidate."

Were laid in allies. The first fire
started in the first story occupied by
Brown & Bailey at 412 Franklin street
at 8:30 o'clock, but it was nearly
o clock before an engine had responded
to the alarm. The delay proved dis
astrous as the inflammable.matterin the
factory was a mass of flames before the
firemen arrived. They then turned
their attention to saving the adjoining
buildings, but the supply of water was
inadequate and it looked for a time as it
the whole block bounded by Franklin,
Eighth, Willow and Callow Hill streets
would be swept away. The firemen
worked heroically until 1 o'clock p. m
when the fire was gotten under control.
The principal losers are Brown &

between $100,000 and $125,000 with an

One
.Medical Autkorlty Itegards It
as a
Kind of Hypnotism. '
An English scientific journal has re
ceived an interesting communication on
the subject of the so called "death
feigning instinct" of certain reptiles.
Syria, says that when a certain species
oi Jigypuan jizara is cupiurea ic. manes
a few vigorous efforts to escape, and
then,' if held firmly, falls into a limp,
motionless state, which might easily
lead an inexperienced person to think it
dead. The animal, however, is simply
in a trancelilce condition.
f l T l .
uencie respiratory movements are
visible just behind the shoulders and
sometimes show a rising and fallinj
rhythm with short intervals of complete
rest. The eyes remain wide open, but
are commonly half closed, and the lids
wink slowly from time to time spon
taneously or by reflex action. The
mouth is almost open, sometimes wide,
sometimes but little, and m either case
the jaw is quite rigid, and if closed by
force is apt to reopen when the pressure
is withdrawn. The limbs lie extended
and semiflaccid, with some approach to
a cataleptic condition i. e., if bent or
stretched into position not too strained,
they maintain such positions when let
go and the same ia true of the trunk
and tail.
A pin may be run through a fold of
the skin without fully arousing tho ani
mal, a sluggish, feeble wriggle being
the solo result. The trance usually lasts
about five minutes, when the animal,
by a brusque effort, assumes its normal
position. This done, it lies quite still,
but evidently awake and observant for a
lew moments moro, and then scuttles
off in a hurry.
Dr. Van Dyck looks.upon this m'ani-
festation not as voluntary or conscious
death feigning, but" aa,a form of hyp
notism. The natural enemies of these
lizards are foxes, jackals,martens, birds
of prey and snakes
"Can. any one believe," asks Dr. Van
Dyck, "that any one of these animals,
having captured a lizard, would be in
the least inclined to let it go because it
lay motionless and apparently dead in
tho captor's grasp? Or will it be argued
that tho trance condition is a special
gift 'in mercy to the victim, to mitigate
or abolish tho pain of death?' " Pitts

HOW TO TELL A" BAD EGG.
An
Infallible French Method Which Re
quires Only a Lighted Candle.
wnen ono calls tor a iresn egg m a
Parisian eating house, the chances are
that ono will bo properly served Not
tfllre there are no bad eggs in Paris as
well as elsewhere, but there are certain
men employed at the central inarketB or
halles whose only duty-is to sift the bad
Uor doubtful eggs from tho good ones. In
one of the cellars of the halles ono sees
a man passing his hands rapidly before
his eyes and m front of alighted candle.
Around him are baskets containing
thousands of eggs. His duty is to sepa
rate tho bad ones from the good, and he
is remunerated sit tne rate or vo cen
times, or 15 cents, for 1,000 eggs.
Jtie accomplishes nis worm witn ex
traordinary dexterity. With one hand
he takes three or four eggs and brings
them to the exact position he wishes be
tween his eye and the lighted candle as
if by magic. For an egg to be good tho
part that appears black must be com
pletely detached from the part that ap
pears white. In other words, the yolk
and the albumen must, through the
transparency of the shell, be seen to be
quito separate. The white looks as if it
radiates about the central nucleus, and
this nucleus is simply theembryo of a
chicken, which being denser, floats in
the liquid which nourishes it. When
there is confusion between the trans
parent and the obscure part, the egg is
doubtful.
ao sore eggs out qnicmy requires a
long experience. The selection of winter
provisions is an especially delicate task.
In addition to reporting on the freshness
of eggs, these operators in the central
markets also examine the siae of eggs.
Those that pass through a certain sized
ring are put on one side as too small,
The employee separates eggs merely by
touching them. As the French markets
are flooded with the produce of tiny Ital
ian chickens, tho task is often a very
long one. ...
The men are all sworn, in to do their
work honestly, andwifh' their serious
and automatio loolTthey make between
$1. 50 and $2 a day. Tho other employees
of the halles bow down to them and are
ever willing to acknowledge their scien
tific suneriority. Philadelphia Times.
