ASLEEP AS SHE WALKS. ' 4| OniuII; rroBounrpil Cam of Ioa< naiuhallam In Denver. Anna Rossman, a beautiful woman About 32 years old, was found walking the streets of Denver In a aomnsmbu llatlo condition on a recent afternoon, says the Rocky Mountain News. An Italian fruit vender noticed the strange conduct of the young lady neur the corner of ltilh and Arapahoe streets. She wnlked Into the drug store at the mining exchange, the police were noti fied and the patient was taken to her home. The case Is a very peculiar one, and has before been brought to the at tention of the police department during v- ’ the past two months. On account of the family, all mention of the matter has, until this time, been suppressed. It Is evident, however, that the somnambu listic tendencies of the unfortunate woman have become chronic and the peculiar features of the attack are at tracting the attention of physicians. Miss Rossman formerly lived in Pueb ... lo. There she attracted attention by her strange performances, walking about the streets apparently awake, but really nsleep and totally unconscious of where she was going. Removing to Denver, the same conduct was contin ued, and the family then went to Chey enne. They again came to this city and settled at the place wl\ere they now re side. It is claimed by the friends of the afflicted woman that she Is possessed of supernatural powers, ■ Is gifted with second sight, and that other strange phenomena are within her control. In these spells she would attract but little attention wero It not for the fact that she Is utterly oblivious of passing ob jects and walks before carriages, street cars and other vehicles with reckless ness. Otherwise her appearance Is that , of a person In possession of her normal senses. A little over a month ago she was found at the union depot, and Yardmaster Pierce discovered that she was .not aware of where she was. A carriage was called, she was taken to the police station, and afterward to her home. Again on the 7th of March she - was found In a similar condition at the Qlenarm hotel. One day when Dr. John son, the police surgeon, was In a res taurant, Miss Rossman walked In and the waiter thought that she was Intox icated. Grasping the situation, Dr. Johnson left his meal, took the patient’s arm, and quietly walked with her to her home. Miss Rossman being all the While utterly oblivious of the notice she was occasioning from bystanders. The young lady had come from Cheyenne Just before her latest sleep-walking ex perience, and walked from the depot to the place where It was found that she Was still asleep. No Information could be gained as to what she had been do ing at Cheyenne or whether she had made that trip In a somiiambullstlo state. When the ambulance came to the mining exchange Miss Rossman was taken quietly to the conveyance and realised nothing of the situation until her home was reached. She then awakened out of the deep sleep, but gave no particulars as to her Budden , visit north. She Is a beautiful blond, has the sympathy of all who know her In the unusual affliction which has be fallen a woman who Is said to be pos sessed of a bright mind. When these fits have passed away she knows noth ing of what has transpired. NOBILITY OF THE DONKEY. is, II* Used to Be Classed Among the Brent Ones. The donkey, who rather undeserved ly has come to be considered one of the '‘naturals" of the animal world, was dedicated by the ancients to Bacchus, while the ass of Sllenus was raised to a place among the stars. Apparently he was a more Intellectual personage In early days than he Is supposed to be at present. Ammonlanus, the grammar ian, possessed one who Invariably at . tended his master's lectures on poetry, and would oven leave the choicest luncheon of thistles to do so. “Wicked as a red ass” ran an old proverb, which the Copts believed In so firmly that every year they sacrificed an unhappy animal of the detested color by hurling It headlong from a wall. In an old blaok letter translation of Albertus Magnus the donkey figures In the fol lowing extraordinary recipe: “Take an adder'B skyn, and aurl plgmentum, and ' greeke pitch of reupirlticum, and the waxe of newe bees, and the fat or grease of an ass, and breake them all, and put them all in a dull seething pot full of water, and make It to seethe at a glowe Are, and after let it waxe cold, and make a taper, and every man that shall see light of It shall seeme head lesse.” Burton, in his “Anatomy of - Melancholy,” mentions as a valuable amulet, “a ring made of the hoofe of an asse's right foot carried about.” A tract written by a certain “A. B.” In 1695, entitled “The Noblenesse of the Asse," Is exceedingly laudatory of that excellent animal. “He refuseth no bur ■ den; he goes whlther.he is sent without any contradiction. He lifts not his ■ . foote against anyone; he bytes not; he Is no fugitive, nor malicious affeoted. He doth all things in good sort, and to his liking that hath cause to employ him." But what chiefly nils the worthy author with admiration is the donkey's voice—his “goodly, sweet, and continu all braylngs,” which form “a melodious and proportionate kind of muslcke.” Leaps of a Mountain Sheep. No; the mountain sheep does not leap from great heights, and land either up on his horns or his feet. He knows the strength of hts material too well to try it His horns and skull might success fully withstand the shock, but the weight of his body would break his spinal column in two or three places, to say the least of It. It Is true that . when hard pressed a herd will some times plunge dswn a terribly steep in cline, sliding and bounding from point to point, until they plough Into the •'slide-rock” below; but as to leaping :*?; over a sheer precipice, I never saw any one who even claimed to have ever wit nessed such a thing, says an authority. The old rams often light by butting each other terrifically, and often splinter, - or sometimes break oft the ends of their horns In that way. Shortness of Time, We all of us complain of the shortness of time, and yet have muoh more than we know what to do with. Our lives are spent either in doing nothing at all, or In doing nothing to the purpose, or .In doing nothing that we ought to do. ‘.We are always complaining that our days are few, and acting as though there would be no end of them. EXTINCTION OF THE BISON. Only Two Hundred Wild Buffalo Still Alive In America. In a wild state, the American bison, or buffalo, Is practically, thought not quite wholly, extinct. At the present moment there are about two hundred wild buffaloes alive and on foot In the United States. To obtain these high figures we Include the one hundred and (Ifty Individuals that white head-hun ters and red meat-hunters have thus far left alive in the Yellowstone park, posed to be protected from slaughter. Hesldes these, there are only two other bunches: one of about twenty head In I.ost park, Colorado, protected by state laws; and another, containing between thirty and forty head. In Val Verda county, TexaB, between Devil’s river and the Itlo Grande. Four years ago there were over three hundred head In the Yellowstone park, thriving and Increasing quite satisfactorily. Through them we fondly hoped the species would even yet be saved from absolute ex tinction. But, alas! we were reckoning without the poachers. Congress pro vides pay for Just one solitary scout to guard In winter 3,575 square miles of rugged mountain country against the horde of .-lawless white men and In dians who surround the park on all shies, eager to kill the last buffalo! The poachers have been hard at work, and as a result our park herd has re cent ely decreased more than one half In number. It Is a burning shame that formerly, through lack of congressional law adequately to punish such poachers as the wretch who was actually caught red-handed'ln January, 1894, while skinning seven dead buffa loes! and now, through lack of a paltry $1,800 a year to pay four more scouts, the park buffaloes are all doomed to certain and speedy destruction. Be sides the placeB mentioned, there Is only one other spot In till North America that contains wild buffaloes. Immediately southwestward of Great Slave lake there lies a vast wilderness of swamps and stunted pines, into which no white man has ever penetrated far, and where the red man still reigns supreme. It Is bounded on the north by the Liard and Mackenzie rivers, on the east by the Slave river, on the south by the Peace river, and on the west by the Rocky mountains. Mr. Warburton Pike says It Is now the greatest beaver country In the world, and that It also contains a few bands of the so-called wood buffalo. "Sometimes they are heard of at Forts Smith and Vermillion, some times at Fort St. John, on the Peace river, and occasionally at Fort Nelson, on the Liard; . . . but It Is Impossi ble to say anything about their num bers." At all events, In February, 1890, Mr. Pike found eight buffaloes only four days* travel from Fort Resolution, on Great Slave lake, and succeeded In kill ing one. The Canadian authorities es timate the total number In that region at three hundred. DANGER FROM LIGHTNING. Ii It Incseased or Diminished by ths Presence of Many Telegraph Vlra? There is a somewhat widespread im pression that the use of so much wire for telephone and other electrical pur poses in cities and towns largely in creases the danger of lightning strokes. The notion is based upon the concentra tion within certain limits of a great quantity of conducting material, which, it is assumed, attracts the electricity and thereby increases the danger of it. While it is true that the increase of conducting material increases the at traction, it is not true that it Increases the danger. As a matter of fact, it decreases the danger, for the more sur face electricity has over which to spread, the more readily and qulckiy it is carried to the earth. A house with a metal roof is not often struck by lightning, for, while the metal may at tract the electricity, it also gives it room to spread out, and its force is thus dissipated. This fact was demonstrat ed by Franklin with his kite long ago, and lightning rods are put on buildings to give storm clouds a means of dis charging their electricity into the earth. This discharge takes place without the report that we call thunder, for elec tricity makes no noise unless it meets some resisting medium. It is a well known fact that there is less danger from lightning in cities than in the country, and this is due to the general use of iron, steel and other metals in city buildings. The buildings are tall and would seem, therefore, to be spe cially attractive to the lightning; in deed, they are often struck, but the metal in them dissipates the force of the fluid and carries it harmlessly and quietly to the earth. The effect of tele phone wires upon atmospheric electric ity has been under official investiga tion by the German department of telegraphs, and statistics from 900 cit ies show that the danger from lightning strokes is four times as great in towns that d° not have the telephone as in those that have it. The conclusion of the whole matter, therefore, is that an abundance of wires gives protection from lightning, instead of Increasing the danger. A Novelty in Bicycle*. A novelty In bicycles went up Broad way last week, says the Ngw York Sun. A young colored man rode It and showed off its fine points In a way that attracted a great deal of attention. In stead of being stationary the handle bar could be moved backward and for ward. Every time the rider pulled the bar back the bicycle shot forward In a way that showed that it had some sort of a rowing machine attachment which worked in conjunction with the pedals. There were the ordinary pedals on the bicycle, and the rider used these the greater part of the time, but every now and then when the rider got In a tick lish position among the trucks, cable cars and other vehicles he would give the handle bar a yank backward and the wheel would dart ahead. Uses of the Lichen. The lichen’s most important function seems to be to beautify the landscape, though some tiny ones are utilized by mother humming bird to cover the out side of her nest, in order to conceal It as much as possible. In Iceland the I lichen called Iceland moss is gathered every year by the boys and girls. It Is boiled in milk and eaten. Fanny Ber gen, in her little book on “Plant life,” j tells ns that the Indians guided them selves through the trackless forests by observing on which side of the trees the > lichens grew thickest, those being the 'northern aides. PRECIOUS STOKES. \f Allan Considers an i.rorjr 8«ttlnf Prof* Arabia to Gold and Mlror. Tho study of precious atones has suggested to the wife, of an export and sometime collector an idea of reformation in the setting of dia monds. Whether it is practicable is a question for jewelers. Tho pro posal is that ivory should take the place of gold or silver. All wearers of diamonds are aware how trouble some is the process of washing and drying silver-set diamonds so as to avoid the slightest tarnish, and a gold sotting has the disadvantage of causing so much reflection of its own color as to render the whiteness of a fine diamond difficult to guage. Hut even more important would be the gain of beauty, says the Pall Mall Gazette. The brilliance of gold and silver mar their charm as a setting for transparent and sparkling stones, though it makes them a good setting for opaque stones and for pearls. Ivory would give the gentle effect that is now sought by setting dia monds together with meroly semi precious stones—a combination de plorable to the expert Ivory would have even more than the quieting effect of cat’s-eye or chrysoprase, and its thick warm whiteness by the lucid and darting diamond would make an effect of great refinement. Perhaps a difficulty would bo found in Its comparative fragility. Of semi-precious stones none is more lovely than the opal, with its fiery rose and alteration of green and blue that shame the peacock, while by a change of pasture all these starry ardors can be lost in a mllky way of whiteness, as suits one’s mood. Opal runs, much like a vein of mar ble, through a mixture of brown Ironstone. When the vein is seen to bo thick enough to yield goodj>iecee the ironstone is split and the opal cut out. But a singularly beautiful art is practiced by a German carver, who leaves the matrix as a back ground and cuts the opal lying at tached to it, following the suggestions of color and form after the well known manner of a cameo. A cameo, however, is opaque and mere brown and white, whereas the opal is translucent and full of color. A dying aurora with a burning sun rising Over the sea, a mermaid with the rosy fire in her cheek and tho peacock tints in her tail, birds stand ing by ft pool in violet twilight, are among the artist’s happiest carvings to be seen at a mineralogist’s in Regent street. It is pleasant thus to follow an opal to its home in nature. To do this with some of the things of com mon use is sometimes to get a new idea of them. i.oathe patchouli as you may—and it can hardly be loathed too heartily—it must loose half its vulgarity after you find that it is not only a bad smell in the Burlington arcade, but the Bimple, unmixed and innocent breath of a shrub whose leaf you may pinch in an Italian garden. Patchouli green and alive, out of doors, must nec essarily make you more tolerant of patchouli, betraying itself in “white rose” inside a shop. A Mute Actoik Upon one occasion, an actor, who rarely knew his part, deliberately posed through an entire act of “Julius Caesar," says the Amusement Globe, and left the responsibility of the scene upon the shoulders of his col leagues. They managed to pull through without him by incorporat ing his lines into their own parts, and when the curtain dropped, they went in a body to the culprit’s dress ing room. He was cahnly reading a newspaper when the door was burst open. “Well sir,” said the irate star, “what do you mean by placing us in such a predicament!'” “What are you talking about?” said the actor. “What am 1 talking about? That scend sir.” “What was the matter with it?” “Why. you nevei once opened your mouth; didn't speak a single line, sir.” “Didn’t, eh! Well, by Jove! do you know it struck me the scone hung Are.” “I’m in a terrible dilemma,” said Mickles to a friend at the office. “What’s the matter?" “My wife and I had been talking economy this morning and she asked me how much I paid for the cigars I smoke. I ha l to pretend to be in a frightful hurry to keep from talking about it ” “Why didn’t you answer her?” “I was afraid to. If I told her the truth she’d scold about the ex travagance, and if I named a fictitious price she might buy me some.” The Typical American Face. Hero is an analvsis of what is al leged to be the typical American face: The prominent nose, the slop ing forehead, the fairly large mouth, the full eyes and predominance of the oval type are the natural char acteristics of an aggressive, talented and shrewd people, agreeable in manners, but keenly alive to the main chance. It is a composite face, made up of the qualities taken from Puritan, English, Scotch and Ger man sourcea A Lom to lilterMtnre. “Barclay has a wonderful imagin ation; he ought to employ it. in story-telling. ” “He doea” “Are they published?” “No; he just tells them to his wife when he has been out late.’’—Chicago Inter Ocean.

Neither Crop* Nor Children Turned Oat Well—What He Envied. A gentleman who was rusticating in the northern part of Now Hamp shire took a tramp among the hills one day. In passing a hillside farm ho saw an aged granger hoeing a very stony potato field near his house, and the gentleman stopped to converse with him, says the Boston Journal. “Your potatoes seem to be doing well,” he started in. “Oh, I reckon I’ll hev a few perta tors,” rejoined the farmer, dryly, as' he stopped hoeing the rocks off the vines and glanced at the stranger curiously from under the wide rim of his weather-beaten straw hat “Other crops good?” “Oh. the crops is toler’ble, as usual, I s’pose,” replied the farmer, indifferently, as he name up to the rail fence, dragging his hoe after him. ‘But I’ll tell yer jest how it Is, squire, ” he continued confidential ly. “I’m the most unfortunate ole critter in Coos county.” “Farming don’t pay very well up here, I suppose?” “Pay! Nothin’ pays me, squire, but I did expect a leetle or suthen from my crop of young uns.” 1 "Children turned out bad, eh?" Jes. so stranger. The hull on ’em has been a dead loss to me. Dan’l I named him for Dan’l Webster an’ give him a good eddication—he’s a hoss doctor; practiced on my old mare and she died. Zeke went into what they call the green-goods busi ness—keepin’ a grocery 1 s’pose—but he busted up, and he writes me that he’s now workin’ in a place called Sing Sing; says he’s got a good stiddy job, but the pay ain’t good, and he’s allers wantin’ to borrer a dollar from me. Sam an’ Hi wont ter brakin’ on the railroad, an’ I had ter pay the funeral expenses of both of 'em. Maria Ann got married to a drummer at the county fair last fall, and went up in a balloon but they came down safe an’ hev been honeymoonin' with me and the old woman’ ever since. Liny, my youngest, ain’t wuth her keep, an’ she’s a-teasing mo to buy her a bysuckle—me, who ain’t laid eyes on a f5 bill since the war. I tell ye, stranger, I’m the most un fortunate critter wi.h my young uns that ever lived,” he groaned. “You certainly have had bad luck with your children.” “I should say I had. Now, there's Bill Durkee up ter Colebrook; he’s had the greatest luck with his. They supports him in good style, an’ Bill ain’t done a stroke o’ work for five years.” “All smart and steady, ehP” “That’s where you miss it, squire. They ain’t any on ’em taken that way. ” "How is it they get along so well, then?” “They are all freaks, and have all got good stiddy jobs the year around. Sal weighs 'bout a ton and Mirandy’s got tremendous long Bair. An’ here I be without even a mammoth hog or a two-headed calf,” sighed the aged farmer as he went back to his hoeing. A Grooin'a Predicament. A bride tells of a difficult moment M her recent wedding trip. A few days of it were spent with an uncle of hers, very deaf and very pious. When they sat down to dinner on the night of their arrival, with a consid erable company ot relatives assem bled to do them honor, the uncle ex ploded a bombshell by asking the groom to say grace- Much embar rassed, as he was unaccustomed to officiating in this way, he leaned for ward, murmuring a request to be ex cused. Wnereupon the uncle, watch ing him, only waited until his lips stopped moving to utter a sonorous “Amen!” in response. It is hardly necessary to add that not only did the blessing for that meal go unsaid, but also that the effort of everybody, except the unde, to keep front laughing quite took away the appe tites for the first course. Ementnu** Luve for Hostou. In driving with Whittier one day Emerson pointed out a small un painted house by the roadside and said: “There lives an old Calvinist in that house and she says she prays | for me every day. I am glad 6he does. I pray for myself.” “Does thee?” said Whittier; “what does thee pray for, friend Emerson?” "Well," replied Emerson, “when I first open my eyes upon the morning meadows and look out upon the beautiful world, I thank God that I am alive and that I live so near Bos ton. ”—Argonaut. Key-Win«I1 nj; Watches Go ll -gelni:. Key-winding watches have been so thoroughly out of date for nearly ten years past that it is now difficult to sell them for a tenth of their original cost, no matter how well made they may be.

Venable, of Downey, a pioneer of Log Angeles County, Cal., says: "Whenever 1 am troubled with a pain in the stomach or with diarrhoea I tjs£ Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. I have used it for years, know it to be a reliable remedy, and recommend it to every one." For gale by P. C. Corrigan, Druggist. ' "We had an epedemic of dysentery in this vicinity last summer,” says Sam uel S. Pollock, of Briceland Cal. "1 was taken with it nnd suffered severely until some one called my attention to Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarr hoea Remedy. I procured a bottle and felt better after the first dose. Before one-half of the bottle had been used 1 was well. I recommended it to my friends and their expennee was the same. We all unite in saying it is the best.” For sale by P. C. Corrigan, Druggist. Among the numerous persons who have been cured of rheumatism by Chamberlain’s Pain Balm, mention should be made of Mrs. Emily Thorne, of Toledo, Wash., who says: "I have never been able to procure any medicine that would relieve me of rheumatism like Chamberlain’s Pain Balm.
