SIR RICHARD OWEN'S GHOST STORY.
It Wu Fearfully Beal to the Man Wlio Saw
the Severed Head Ilollinc In.
Tlio late Sir Richard Owen used to re
late a remarkable ghost story. In his
early days, when he held the post of sur
geon to the prison at Lancaster, a negro
died in jail, and a postmortem as well as
an inquest was necessary. After tho in
quest tho young surgeon saw tho body
put in the coffin and the lid screwed
down, to be ready for the funeral next
day. Owen had at the time been already
attracted to the study of comparative
anatomy, and negroes’ heads were not
plentiful, so bo made up his mind that
this one should not bo lost to tho cause
of science. In the evening ko returned
to the prison with a black bag contain
ing a brick—from his official position he
had no difficulty in getting admittance
to tho mortuary, where the coffin lid was
unscrewed and screwed down again.
During this process the brick and the
negro’s head changed places.
The ground outside the principal eD
trance to the jail has a considerable de
scent, and the time being winter, with
snow and frost, Owen had scarcely passed
out when he slipped and fell all his length
—the bag went from his hand, and the
head tumbled out and rolled down the
paved way. He got up, caught the bag,
and following tho bead clutched it just
as it finished its career in a small shop
where tobacco was sold. Pushing it into
the bag again, ho vanished out of the
shop with all the speed he was capable of.
Next morning, when Owen was going
to his usual duties at the prison, he was
called in by the woman at the shop where
t he accident bad occurred on the previous
evening. She wished him to see her hus
band, who was very ill. He had had, she
said, a fright the night before that caused
him to look wild and dazedlike. The man,
it turned out, was a retired sea captain
who had been in many adventures among
the West India islands when many deeds
were done that did not at that time re
quire to be accounted for. Among these
had been the killing of a negro in which
ho had a hand, and the transaction had
left a touch of trouble on liis conscience.
After giving these details the old captain
told of the horrible event that took place
the night before.
He was sitting in liis shop. All was
qniet, and it so chanced that he had been
thinking of the negro, when suddenly he
saw his very head roll into the shop in
front of the counter, and it was followed
by the devil all in black, with a black bag
in liis hand. The devil snatched up tho
head, and both disappeared through the
earth like a flash of lightning. Tho de
scription was perhaps not quite compli
mentary to the young anatomist, but it
was satisfactory so far that it showed that
liis identity had not been recognized.—
London News.
Theodore Hook's Indigent Daughter.
“By a curious coincidence,” says an
English journal, “attention has been
called to the existence, in very poor cir
cumstances, of an aged daughter of
Theodore Hook, just at a time when a
proposal is on foot to commemorate the
brilliant humorist by a stained glass
window in the porch of Fulham church,
in the pretty ‘God’s acre’ of which he
lies buried. Hook's only surviving child
has, alas! fallen on evil days, and at up
ward of 70 years of age finds herself in
sorely straightened circumstances.
“It is not, happily, our custom to allow
the children of those who have won
fame to suffer unaided the penalties of
unavoidable misfortune, and it may be
taken for granted that the same spirit of
respect for a distinguished name which
has led to the collection of funds for the
memorial window and for the restora
tion of the famous writer’s tomb will
secure material help to his daughter in
her poverty and old age. So far as The
odore Hook himself is concerned, we
may be quite sure that no posthumous
honor that could be offered to him would
compare—could he hut know of it—with
the timely aid which is asked for his in
digent and almost friendless daughter.”
All a Mistake.
Last week three preachers mingled in
the crowd of people looking at the show
window of a large clothing store. While
they were earnestly observing the dis
play a vigilant detective came to them
and laying his hand on the shoulder of
one of the ministers said:
“You must go with me.”
“Where?” asked the clergyman.
“To the city hall,” replied the detect
ive as he displayed his badge. The
preacher declined to go, but after think
ing over the matter remarked: “All
right, I will go. I suppose I will look as
well in the city hall as you will.” They
had not proceeded far before the detect
ive felt that he had made a mistake. He
excused himself, and the minister walked
away, accompanied by his brother min
isters, who had come to his rescue. This
incident recalls the arrest as a suspected
felon of a well known newspaper man a
few years ago by a prominent detective,
who found the newspaper man sending
off a long telegram.—Louisville Courier
Journal.
How One* Court Was Run.
Probably Judge Murphy's best hit was
i made with a police court lawyer who en
deavored to secure the acquittal of a
prisoner by quoting an obscure para
graph of an almost forgotten law. The
justice denied the appeal, saying, “This
court may not know a great deal of law,
but it is well posted on all points of com
mon sense, and that is what this court is
run on.”—Brookh a Eagle.

at the same price of the old week

just what the public wauted—
something between the old-fash

diate and continued. It has dis
tanced every one of its once-a-week
rivals. It doesn’t take long to
convince people that a good live
paper every Tuesday and Friday
is better than only one a tveek,
especially when you appeal to their
pocket books, and give it to them
at the same price. Readers will
testify that it is almost as trood as
a daily. The markets twice a
week are worth the money. Four
complete novels each year by
“The Duchess,” Miss Braddon,
and other widely known authors,
are worth the dollar. Its lecisla

now. It is wide-awade, spends
money for news, and is always in

Catarrhal Deafness Cured.—An Old
Case Successfully Treated.
The symptoms are: Roaring, crack
ing, buzzing in the ears, with grad
ually increasing difficulty in hearing
If not cured the hearing will be entirely
destroyed. When the case has not
already gone too far before the treat
ment is begun Pe-ru-na will cure every
case. It is only after the catarrh has
destroyed portions of the middle car
that Pe-ru-na fails to cure.
Mr. Frederick Bierman, of Macomb
City, Miss., had chronic catarrh very
badly for many years. The disease
finally passed up • the eustachian tube
into the middle ear, and had already
destroyed his hearing. He has been
taking Pe-ru-na for a short time, and
his catarrh is very much better, and he
hears again as well as any one.

The way the thing happened was this:
Our section had beeu fighting it alone in
a peach orchard until the other m inhere
of the battery joined us. v. ion we moved
forward and had quite a brisk enga .a
inent with theeuemy. Onr nmnninhmii
expended and our men worn out, we
halted at a spot in the woods to rest and
to replenish our ammunition.
The fighting was going on all around
us, anil stray bullets were coining along
past us every now and then., 1 don’t be
lieve i was ever so tired in my life as 1
Whs after that engagement. It was ab
solutely necessary for me to take a rest,
and perceiving a huge tree near by 1
concluded to plant myself along aide of
it. So 1 leaned against it with my back
to the enemy's line, stretched out my
feet and was having a splendid rest when
a 12-pound shot came hounding along
and struck the tree plumb ou the opjxj
site side from me and at a point just be
hind my head.
Well, sir, I didn’t know what struck
me. The shock was tremendous. Great
Jerusalem! But didn’t I run from under
that tree, looking sideways up and ex
pecting momentarily to see the whole
enormous mass of wood and leaves come
crashing down on me. I didn't know
what had happened till I saw some of the
boys dancing around in high delight,
clapping their hands and yelling at me. 1
felt for a week as if I had been struck on
the back of the head with a sledge ham
mer.—New Oilcans Times-Democrat.
The Hauteur of English Servants.
I get on charmingly with tho English
nobility .and sufficiently well with the
gentry, but the upper servants strike*
terror to my soul. There is something
awe inspiring to mo about an English
butler, particularly one in imposing
liver}*. When I call upon Lady de Wolfe,
I say to myself impressively as I go up
the steps: “You are as good as a butler,
as well bom and well bred as a butler,
even more intelligent than a butler
Now, simply because he has an unap
proachable hautiness of demeanor, which
you can respectfully admire, but cai:
never hope to imitate, do not cower be
neath tho polar light of his eye; assert
yourself; bo a woman; be an American
citizen!” All in vain.
The moment the door (.pens I ask for
Lady do Wolfe in so timid a tone that !
know Parker thinks me the parlor maid's
sister, who has rung the visitors’ bell by
mistake. If my lady is within, I follow
Parker to the drawing room, my knees
shaking under me at the prospect of
committing some solecism in his sight.
Lady de Wolfe’s husband has been no
ble only four months, and Parker of
course knows it and perhaps affects
even greater hauteur to divert the atten
tion of the vulgar commoner from the
newness of tho title.—Kate D. Wiggin
in Atlantic Monthly.
The Arrangement of Leaves.
The general arrangement of the lea ves
on limbs and stalks of trees and plants
secures between each sufficient space to
prevent one leaf from interfering with
another. And not only are leaves so ar
ranged as to exist independently of each
other, but in a general way they have
taken upon themselves tho forms best
adapted to secure the maximum of sun
light as it is showered upon them in dif
ferent latitudes. At the equator, where
the sun’s rays are vertical, we find large
flat leaves, like those of the banana,
plantain and the various species of the
cactus.
Farther north, where sunlight strikes
at an angle, small leaves and pine
“needles” are found. Then, again, note
the peculiarity of the Australian gum
tree—instead of exposing their broad
faces to the sun the edges only are so
turned. Were it otherwise tho sun
would rob them of all their moisture, it
being a well known fact that the gum
tree grows in the driest region on earth.

Nature Against Him.
“You have been walking about this
great city for six weeks and haven’t
found work?” said the kind woman feel
ingly.
“Yes’m,” replied the seedy man in the
kitchen, his mouth closing over a wedge
of pie. “That's right.”
“You are willing to work, I dare say?”
“Willin, mum? I’d work my laigs oft
ef I could git a chance. Jest a lee tie
more cream in the cawfy. Tlianky.”
“And you woulc^do any kind of hon
orable work, I presume?”
“Yes'm, anything that’s in my line.
I b’lieve in every man stiekin to his pro
fession.”
“May I ask what your profession is?”
“I’m a inventor, mum.”
“An inventor?”
“Yes’m,” said the seedy man, reach
ing for a doughnut, “inventor of a new
process for curin sunstrokes.”—Chicago
Tribune.
No More Cobblers.
There is no sense in calling a shoe
maker of modern times a cobbler.’ The
nearest thing to a cobbler today is the
custom made man who confines his at
tention exclusively to that one brand:.
Machinery for making shoes in great
quantities and in sections is of compara
tively recent date, and prior to its adop
tion the shoemaker, or cobbler, did the
entire business, from taking the measure
to collecting the money. In small towns
and villages he literally performed the
entire process himself, having insufficient
trade to justify the employment of an
assistant,- and in larger cities he superin
tended the work from beginning to c-nd
himself. The labor saving wonders of
the times have practically swept this
man out of the field, and there are very
few members of the trade who are really
cobblers.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
On the Sabi Kit li.
In Scotland once a drunken man met a
clergyman chasing his runaway dog on
Sunday. “Tammas,” said the breathless
clergyman, “I am sorry to see you in this
condition. But whistle for my dog. He
is running away.” Tammas regarded the
speaker with gravity and said: "WhnstleV
1 may drink whisky, but I’ll no wliustle
for ony dog on the Lord's day.”—Phila
delphia Record.
