Gcmofeto i 53 POISONS IN FAIR BLOSSOMS. Warning to Those Who Sleep In Rooms mitli Flowers or 1'lantH. One ly one illusions are dispelled, and the case of the young woman wlio the ether J;iy wns overcome ly the j-.crf uiiic of a. uiti.ss of violets sent her ly ti friend ntids another wreck to the list of broken, idols, it litis always beer. considered the most beautiful compli ment one could pay a friend to send ilowe.rs. roses or violets, especially as a token of affection. But now that it is known that deadly Jioisons lurk amony these charming little lilossoniis, which may bring harm to offset the pleasures irivo.n 1o dear ones, the charm must certainly lo lesscu-ed. Tiie story of iJiiB young woman's nar row e.seape, a-s told, was a surprise to many who had never realized that t here was liny danger in flowers. The hun dreds of beautiful violets which lial Ieen sent her by a friend in California, and -which she prized so highly as not. to wish to 1k parted from them even during the night, came near being Ihe cause of her death. fir she was found in an unconscious condition in the morning and wos with diffictilty arouscd. -. How dangerous the poisoned gases which the flowers exhale can. lvecome, when in a badly ventilated room, would be a pood subject for st udy by the liclles of society or the stagv, who receive so many similar tributes to their charms. Dr. l-'oyler. of this city, who was asked his opinion on. the subject, said that, many cases of dangerous illness and even death from such causes were e.ll known and authenticated. 'The plants, cscci:illy flowering ones," Dr. Fowler said, "during the day are not harmful, because they are breathing1 in just the, part of the air w hieh our bmgs throw off; but at night the process is reversed, and they throw off tjie carbonic acid gas, which is a poison to our ltiugs. This causes weak ness of the heart, faint.ncss and hys teria wit h some people, and even death. "A oast? is known, which happened not very long ago in Germany, in one of the Messes, where the. friends of a bride and groom, in their desire to start them on their career rn a rosy pathway, adorned their room with calamities of flowcTs. It was in cold weather, and the windows were closed, leaving the air heavy with perfumes. The happy couple retired to their rose decked room, and were found in the morning dead, hearl failure having re sulted from the poisonous perfume. "Tli ere is poison in Ihe perfume of many flowers, not in violets more than anv others, but it is in such small iju'antities as to be harmless unless massed and confined. Prussic acid is found in a mild degree in most per fumes, and it is used by many per fumers, in fact, to intensify odors. lOther well-known medical poisons come from flowers. It is never safe to have any growing or cut flowers in a brdroom at ni.L-ht, for you cannot tell when the system may Ik- in such a con dition as to be affected by their ex halations." N. Y. Herald. THE SULTAN A BAD DEBTOR. How U Mle ail American Lnniber Firm Wait for Its I'ay. A certain iutnlwr firm of this city more than two years ago shipped to the sultan of Turkey several thousand dollars' worth of its most aluable goods. The order included mah ffany and ebony logs of unusual size and of the lincst coloring and general quality that could be obtained. The payment, or rather the promise to pay, was in the shap-e of a draft on the sultan, the money to be forthcoming upon the arrival of the logs at Constantinople. Naturally the American iirni regarded the imperial treasury of Turkey .'us good for the price of a shipment of lumber. In due time the mahogany and the ebony reached the Golden Horn and the Meditc.rra.nea.il Steajiiship company st nt in to the shippers a gentle remind er that tho settlement of freight charges was in order. Hut meanwhile nothing had been heard from tiie sul tan or his agents and the New York lumber dealers did not fancy being held responsible for charges upon goods which were iitut, yet paid for. Cable dispatches and letters were sent to the jvorte. but the "Sick Man of Eu rope" was apparently too busy attend ing to his Armenian subjects to lie able to look after such trifles as settling with American creditors. No satisfac tory response of any sort could lie ob tained. Then the lumber firm made applica tion to Mavroyeni IVey, at that time the Turkish minister at Washing-ton. He promised to see that his sovereign paid the bill without further delay, and the hopes of t he dealers were again raised. Hut not even Mavroyeni Bey was; able to open the sultan's purse strings. The Armenian question srtill absorled his attention. Mavroyeni Bey was recalled without having an compliished this bit of work. The firm hail a lawyer working on the ease, but had for months practically abandoned all idea of getting the money. On the last day of OctoWr, things took a most unexpected and jojful turn, lnfliienceil afar off, it may be, by the prevailing American sentiment in favor of paying one's debts hon estly, about noon on that day word was sent to the firm that the draft had been paid. Since then the actual money has been received. The moral of the transaction would seem to ! that, if you have business dealings with Abdul Hamid II.. you must lie content to wait awhile for your money, he being a slow debtor, but one who will come around at. last if yon give him plenty of time.

A "QUID" OF TOBACCO. How a Small ThtiiR Stopped Operations on a Great War Ship. Lieut. Entile Duboc tells an amusing story of an eveut, which, lie says, cer tainly led to the downfall of hydraulic machinery in the French service. A few vears ag-o the authorities of a great shipbuilding firm were very much per turbed when the trials for turning the turrets of a new battle ship, in the pres ence of the committee appointed to take over the ship, were failures. A day or two before everything had gone satis factorily. But now the turret, after some siight. movements, stuck fat. The. gauges indicated the normal pres sure; there was nothing wrong witu the turret or with the racks for rotat ing it; there was no perceptible leak in any of the piives, and it was so im osKible to assign any reason for the behavior of the turret that tne com mittee had to go home without seeing it revolve. That evening ami the tol-lowinc- (lav a complete overhaul was made of the system of piping, and it was then discovered that one small but important pipe was completely choked by a "quid of etieweu tooacco, wna-u si workman had doubtless, let fall into it inadvertently. When this was re moved the turret worked as well as ever, but the disquietude caused by the want of success of the day before was onlv increased when it was discovered how insignificant the cause had been. From that day the naval authorities de cided that in future wherever practic able the iver for battle, ship oiera tions should be carried by a wire in stead of a steam pipe. STOOD BY HER RIGHTS.

The woman lawyer slammed a pile of briefs down before the judge, accord ing to the New York Herald, and said: "I move to discharge, the prisoner on the ground that the prosecution have not proved their case and that the evi dence is irrelevant and immaterial.

"The men who ask for all kinds of accommodations, when they have their wives, sisters or female relatives trav eling with them, and they never fail then to claim everything in sight, are in many cases the men who decline to givei similar favora to other lady passengers. "As a matter of fact, the) upper lierths in a sleeping car are the best, the liest. ventilated, and I think experi ence lias shown the safest in cases of wreck. Still, the demand is nearly al ways for the lower berths, liecause it is ea-sier to get into them. This is par ticularly so with lady travelers. "In my la.st half-dozen trips from and back to the city I have had more than the usual iercentage of lady passen gers, and I have, not succeeded in one case, in getting any of the men travel ers to surrender a lower lwrth for an upper berth. The men, being more ex erienced. secured the lower lierths and refused to give them up." Drnjcgrlsts I'P to Date. Druggists keep about as close watch of the season :ts any people in the world.
