A isohemian lrom I'lattsmoulti was

of two runaway children, a boy and a
girl' who had left their home in or near
that city. The boy was about 10 yeais
old and the girl about 14. As thev

were seen near town by several persons
it is likely that they have been captured
and taken back home ere this. A genth
man who saw them informed the Ol-
serrir reporter that they were very
thinly clad, the boy's toes protruding
out through his boots and the girl wore
a thin calico dress. They were quite
young to start out to face this cold
world. Louisville Observer.
Umaha Jleralu: jlattie oir.c is
the name of a young girl who applied at
the police station last night for ass'stancc.
The officers saw that she was inexper

could for her gave her a place to sleep.
To be sure the bed was hard a beard
and she could not shut from her c.vs the
rebald songs and coarse jests of the im
prisoned wrong-doers. But anything
was better than a night in the .streets.
and she accepted the hospitality with
thanks. She says that she arrived in tlu
evening from Louisville, Neb. On the
traini she met and talked with a strange
young man who volunteered to asscst hei
to obtain the work she sousht. lie said
he could get employment for her immc
diately. lie walked with her about the
streets for several hours and finally left
her at the door of the station, tc-ll'ng her
to make application there. Then he left
her hurri Jly. Mattie told the olficer.-

stranger to whom she had entruteel her

It Has Leaked Out.
Plattsmouth has longenjoyeel the bless
ings of a goed name and she has always
showeel the bright side to every body.
Her murders were ke-pt eu'iet, the lynch-
niubs anel their eleeels have been kept
from ohe public car, anel wile! boys have
been caught and cageel, all the thri ling
events of a booming town have happened,
but they were imprisoned in the secret
vaults that her name might be kept fair.
She has long struggled to hide ths depot
by building air castles over it, but alas!
some great wag hath seen it unel eliscloseel
Plattsmouth's secret to the people by the
Omaha Jiei: He speaks therein as fol
lows: Plattsmouth is not ambitious to rival
Nebraska City as a sensation anel wilel
ley center. Her warm bloo.l llounders
through modest veins, ami revolts nt
pica headeeiuess anel naked notoriety.
This explains the slow-mule pace details
of a recent astounding occurences in that
city. The ice gorge above Omaha lust
week, it appears reduced the river nt
Plallsmovth to a narrow gurgling stream.
For several days an unusual commoiioi.
was noticed in the waters on the river
front, but ao attedtion was paiel to it
until late Thursday evening when a
mounter of unsightly shape crawled on
the- sand bar anel made for the shore.
The people arouuel the depot were par
aly.eel with fear, anel for minutes that
seemed hours they gazeel immovably at
the slimy, tiuiverin -s, beast. Suddenly the
cry of "devil-fish" arose, broke the spell
bounel people and away to the hills they
ran. Slowly the devil-fish, fer such it
seemcel te be, approacheel the shore, its
huge tentacles, yards in length, smiting
the air anel sanel for something te devour.
Th " river bank at this point is about
fifteen feet high, fringed with railroad
trucks, water tanic and dt pot L p to
this bank the amphibious monster had
f.iir s.;:l;ng. A huge eye, as large as an
;.:d rnvnfs head after an all night's
session, glared with demon-like joy from
the center of its circular boely. Up to
th precipitous bank it came r.nel
whooped the rubbish and rabble out of
its path like a young cyclone. The huge
arms circled ominously in the air, anel
fell upon the tracks anel platform, scat-
t .Ting boxes ana barrows rignc anel leit.
At this moment the crowd on the hill-
s;des,realizing that a benefactor was near
opened its throat, and with a mightv
effort that shook the valleys anel rattle i
rr. wiiulows in Orcapolis, cried out,
"The etcoot is doomed." Meanwhile the
monster vigorously whirled its duke-3 in
search of a grip on the totteiing tinder-
box. The suckers pulUd and snappeei,
hut captureel only cadaverous cockroaches
ai.el cobwebs, musty volumes ot JUissoun
river rates auel decayed editorial passes.
Tne cry of unshackled joy rolled down
with irresistable fury on the writhing

hi.urs after no on3 ventured on the spot,
linallv Dr. Cook secured a posse of brave
men and. armed with axes and sabers
and lamps, mnrched to the river, followed
by a wondering crowd. They dissected
the beast in a few hours anel found to
their profound regret that the plans anel
sxeitications for a new depot hael been
swallowed by the beast anel, lodging in
in a vital spot, causeel eleath. The hide
of the monster, with its fringe of moss
ind barnacle's, was captured by William

to the democratic club of the county.

A lt?cturo was delivered recently in St.
Jamo.-i' hall on tho striking subject of
'Triehology and Balelness." There i3, it ap
pear:-, a British Trichological association,
v. !ir.; o president, Mr. O. W. v heeler, deliv
ers. 1 i io address, and there is going to be, if
it iv.-: is got up, a hospital for the treatment
1'.M h.-ads. The advice to the possessors of I tue Clt? R':
Irisu j-illelahs "vhen you 6oe a bald head I tion. dlv
hitii." i3 modified in the case of "tricholo-
gist.-V vith whom tho new maxim is, "Whea
you C'.o a bald head study it." "When our
Lu.ir c :- its appendage gets out of order it
give" c igns and symptoms of such." So says
tho i :rned president of tho Trichological
assot-i-ition. Science often awes us with an
impressive obscurity of language, but we
read as.
Ttic upshot of it all is that the balel are to
be deprived of the comfort and consolation
of a moelern theory that the hairy man is a
survivAl of the savage, and that as civiliza
tion increases hair decays. The "sign3 and
eynipvjma of suh" are to be studied by a
special class of men the triehologists with
a vier,- to restoring lost hair. "Why should
hairdressers be allowed to humbug the public
-n hori there is a true science of trichology
whie'.i would benefit mankind?"' So asks
Mr. Wheeler. Why, indeed? But is there
no Iniiiibug elsewhere? The president of this
as3oei j.tion, which aspires to a charter and to
on examining body, does not "fcr a minute
eut-Ji tain the idea that triehologists will ever
make hair grow on all bald heads any more
than our best physicians can raise the dead."
Iio frankly adds that "trichology is a
science considerably veiled in mystery."
That being so, we will not have bald heads
mocked. London News.

Treatment of Writer Cramp.
J.I. Wolff, one of the most eminent pi"acti-
tionc-rs in Is.iu-ope, has given special attention
f to this ailment for some five 3ears past, and
has I t-en very successful in a majority of the
largo uumber of cases trcatoeL The malady
is no:, he says, confined to writers, but may
occur in any individual whose occupation
bri"?;.! into constant play one set of muscles
that is, the pianist, the telegrapher and the
biuret danr may suffer from theso cramps,
or from an inability to perform tho acts pe
culiar to his occupation. Tho cramps are
merely symptoms of a diseased condition, the
exact seat of which is a matter of dispute,
sonK; locating it in the brain, others in the
spinal cord, while there are those who regard
tho nerve centers 03 in no wise affected, but
trace the source of the affection to tho nerves
the:n-.elves.
Wolff's method consists in tho application
of gymnastics, combined with massage, to
the a: Tec ted muscles; tho rubbing and some
times a gentle striking of tho muscles with a
wooden bar, together with regular move
ments of tho fingers or other defective parts,
aro continuod for several weeks, during
wh:e j time not more than one hour daily is
devoted to these exercises. JNew York Tri

A Shrewd Advertiser.
'T.Iy stars !" exclaimed a man, shoving some
one who stood near him, "you have trod on

Th fellow snatched out a box of ointment,
and replied: 'I can relieve you, sir, in a few

mcti.f al fraternity everywhere. There is nc
use in suffering, One box? Thank you," he
ael-lL'I, as he put the money in his pocket.
"Id was an accident you found him," some
ono remarked to the salve dealer.
'Oh, no, it wasn't. If you ask a man il
