A large number of the IH'.mockat's i

for all of our citizens to enjoy a flood

that no" one had a right to give una;, or

propose to show in this article
that the officer w as neither rum ing out

was. Nor do we believe t hat any court

CHINESE SNAKE STONE.
Curious Oriental froiliift Wliicti Is Pal'l to
Cure roii,onoUH mtrn.
Pen K. J-p.rad'.ey, a atts.ho of tho St.
Louis sanitarium, Rt. l''.o" finth (irnnd
arc tuie, lias in his poesensicn ono of the
in is; enrions and what iio afSArts to bo
ono of rhe mot urfful and vrluabln of
article.-. It is what is known tin a Cbi
nero snake .tono. and there is said to be
bur ono other in tho country. Indeed
the one in olr. Sprad'oy's possession is
bur b.iif a one. the or'-inai having boon
cut- in tv. o by Mr. Spradler and hz.lt of
it given to a friend. In appearance the
stone looks like a lunali piece of oblong
shf.pi d c.innol coal and is about one
eig'uth of an inch in thickness, thrco
eiRh'hs of an inch v.-ido and ht If an
inch long. It is as light in weight as a
pioco of cork, possesses a polisiicd sur
face and can b.i easily out with a kmfo.
It is not a stone, in tho proper sense of
tho word, but is a manufactured article
and is of a porous texvnre.
To euro sr.a'-co bites or poisonous
wounds of a similar nature with tho
"stone" the wound must first- be scari
fied. Then tho stone is applied to the
wound. Each morning and evening it
h taken off and put into a glass of luke
warm water to remain a few moments
until it discharges the poison it h;is ab
sorbed. Then, after the wound has been
washed in a srro?jg solution of salt wa
ter and again scJcified, the stono, which
in the meantime has been rubbed in
warm ashes until dry, is again applied.
If this tronirueut is kept up for nine
days and tho patient ubgtaius during
that tima from spirituous liquors a cure
is assured.
' ' I st eurorl the stono, " said Mr. Pprad
loy, "from my fat hrr more than J50 years
ago. lie got it from .Tamos J. Parker,
the man who made it. From 1K74 to
1977 I was with rho party which was put
ting through tho Texas Paoitie railroad,
and during that timo cured several of
tho party who were bitten by rattler
and other poisonous snakes. I have fre
quently loaned tho stone to friends, and
I cut the original in two, giving half of
it to u particular friend of mine. I have
not usod tho stouo for some timo, but
am ready to give a test of its merits at
any time.
"It is, ynu see, not properly a stone,
but is a taauiif aotured substance of a por
ous nature. Tho thoory possessed by
many that so called 'madstones' are
found in tho siomachs of animals is all
nonsense. They aro all manufactured in
a manruir similar to this, and it in sim
ply their 'drawing' powers and their
porousuess and consequent oapaoity for
absorption that renders them valuable. "

SKETCHES BYM. QUAD
He Couldn't Take m Joke.
"I dunno much about the laws of a
city like thie, " ho began as ho entered
: the central station the other evening,
j "and I'd like to ask a few questions. "
I " Vory well," repliod the sergeant aa
ho looked up from his desk.
! "Kin a feller come np to me Jnd
' poke me in the ribs an call mo a bloom-
In ole kuss on wheels? Does the law al
low him to do it?"
"If any one did that to you, he was
only in fnn. "
"Mebbo he was, but I don't like such,
familiarity, and I told him so too. Does
tho law allow anybody to cocin np to
yon and smash your hat down over yonr
ears and yell, 'Hello, Benben !' in your
ears?"
"Of course not, but some men are
jovial, you know."
"Ytw, I know tbey are, but I don't
liko snch jokes. If I'm in a saloon
drinkin a glass of boer by myself, does
tho law allow the fellers in there to
call raa 'Old Borax' and elbow me
around till I'm strangled with brer?"
"Oh, no, but they didn't hurt you
any," smiled the sergeant.
"They hurt my feelin's, and I don't
like it a bit. Has a feller on tho hind
platform of a street car any right to
brush hay seed off my coat collar and
grin and ask me how turnips are gittin
along?"
"Yon are no hand to take a joke,"
said the sergeant as he turned to his
work.
"No, I'm not," replied the man as
his face grew more sorrowful, "I have I
a iamo back, a holler tooth ana the ear
ache, and on top of that I'vo lost five
hogs by the cholera this summer and
bad my barn struck by lightning. No, I
ran't take no joke. I was calkorl.it in
to stay in town four or five days, but I
gr.oss I'll pull out tomorrow. It's too
jovial fur mo. If tbar hain't no law to
pnrtrrt a foller who feels sad then he'd
bot'er git right out. Is thar anybody
around here who kin play 'Home, Sweet
Homo' on the accordion?"
'"I don't think so."
"Well, I hardly expected it. I guess
I won't wait till morniu, but I'll leave
tonight. It's a one sided town all rnns
to jokes and no place for me. "
" You ought to stay over and visit tho
island park," suggested tho sergeant.
"I'd liko to, but I dasii't. If I did
sonio feller would jump out from be
hind a tree and tickle mo in tho ribs
mid oaii mo 'Old Squash !' and mafei
mo mad "nnf to bnst. No, I'll go homo
tonight and take my sadness along with
me, and you Viu tell all the jokers iu
town that they kin ha, ha I uud be

".Sergeant." he began as ho entered
police headquarters at 10 o'clock the
other evening, J"011 understand tho
game of poker?"
"I'vo heard of it, "replied tho officer.
"Well, 1 want some informal ion. I
was coming in on the train today and a
man asked mo if I'd like to take a hand
at poker. It is spoiled p-o-k-e-r, I be
lieve. "
"Yes, I believe they spell it that
way. ' '
"I said I'd tako a hand. Ho dealt me
three jacks and in tho dra w I ot two
queens. What sort of a hand was that?"
"Tbey rail that a 'full house.' "
"Well, I didn't know, but I thought
it was a good hand, and after the draw
I .said I'd bet a dollar. Tho man raised
mt iou rail it raised, clon t yon.'
"I'vo hoard it called so," rop'i-d tho
toriioant.
' Thi n I raised him."
"Yos. "
'Then ho raised mo."
"Yes."
"And is there such a term as 'bluff'
in pokrr?"
"I brliovo so."
"Well, I think ho tried to bluff me,
bnt btj couldn't do it. Thero was $00
on tho" table when ho said ho he''
"Ho called. "
"Yos, he called. I'm sure that was
Trhat he said Anyhow, we both showed
our hands. He had only two pairs. I
think ynu call them pairs, don't your"
"But you had a full house," pro
tested tho sergeant.
"Yes, of course, and beat hira,
didn't I?"
"Certainly. "
"That's what I thought, but ho raked
In tho pot. I think you call it pot, don't
you?"
"Of CourEO you do, but why did yon
let him rako in tho pot on two pairs
when yon bad a full houso?"
"Did that money belong to mc?"
"Certainly it did."
"And he swiped mo out of it. I bo
Ijcve you call it swiped?"
"For sura. What did you do?"
"Oh, I lost $200 more and then quit
playing. I doa't think I ought to play
poker, do you?"
"You'd better go and sandpaper yonr
bead," growled tho sergeant as ho
turned to his bcok.
"Yt, I will," cheerfully replied tho
young man. "I presume I can find a
hardware store open at this Imr. I
will buy a dime's worth. I will stiud
puper my hrr.d. But just one word
more. One of my hands was what is
called a straight, but he said a 'crooked'
always beat a straight. Can you tell mo
if such" .
But the sergeant roso up and pointed
to the door, and the young man tiptoed
out, saying :
"Yes, I will sandpaper my head.

"Any reports of o tragedy around

"Haven't heard of any," wa tho re

; papers in the morning. They brcrg it
all on themselves and mustn't blame
"Has anything happened?" asked the
officer, though betraying but little anxi
ety. "Has anything happened?" repeated
the broad backed young man with an
early crop of freckles on his face.
"Well, I should gnrgle that there had!
I suppose I look sorter hay seedy, don't
I?"
"Well, yes, you have a look that
way."

with delight at sight of me, wouldn't !
you?"

when flvo bunko steerers tackled mo, i

six more came up. I give 'em fair

"I did. I left ?m down here on a j

My shoulder is a lectio lame with strik-
in, but otherwise I don't feel any bad '

them that were killed?" j
"Oh, certainly. " i
"And the injured will go to the hes- ;

SHIPMENTS
Of coal foot up an enormous aggregate.
The coal supply of Europe and America,
acoording to experts, will last five hun
dred years at the present rate of oonsump
ion. However that may be, it is absolutely
certain that our coal burns better, lasts
longer, and is therefore cheaper than the
inferior article handled by some other
dealers. You o in depend upon onr ooal
and wager two to one that any order we de
liver will be full weight. Poor coal coats
the most invariably. Buy the best coal
from us and buy it now while we're deliver
ing at bottom prices.
