James Rothermel, who lives in Fayette county, this state, has a strange birth mark, which makes him an object of su perstitious regard among his neighbors, According to the Pittsburg Post, on the back of Rothermel’s bead, just below and a little to tbe right of the base of his brain, is a small excresence, bluish in color and cresent-shaped. Tbe moment the moon begins to turn the first quarter of her pole the mark begins to- undergo a starts ling change. Its bluish color turns a brilliant red, and the flesh below it and extending diagonally across bis neck to the left shoulder begins to swell. As the moon grows older the birthmark gets redder and redder and redder, and the flesh swells more and more until, when the moon has reached its “full,” the cresent-shaped mark is of a fiery scarlet, and the flesh extending from the mark to the left shoulder has swollen into a horn-like roll, two or three inches in thickness at the largest point, and grad ually tapering to a point near the shoul der. As the moon gradually begins to wane, in like manner the scarlet of the cresent-shaped mark becomes less fiery, the horn-like' roll across the neck to de crease in size, until, when the moon is dark again, there is nothing to be seen but the small bluish cresent-shaped mark. For over twenty-eight years these changes have followed monthly with tbe moon’s phases, and so marked are they and so regular that Rothermel can tell by sim- Myself; * of interest, and ,n gland be said that l^everlu! * a ^ter guide than Vri Ca ^ trough Eu- a Inen d when yon meet A Remarkable Case. The Albany Argus has the following concerning a case heretofore mentioned: ‘Some time ago Mrs. Ethan Palmer, of Clinton, Oneida county, was brought to Glenn Falls by the Rev. George Eddy for the purpose of medical attention. She is about forty years of age. Some years ago her lower limbs began to harden, un til now they are completely ossified. Latterly, tbe same change has been tak ing place on the upper portion of her body, until now her spinal column is as hard as a piece of granite, and the same may be said of her arms and hands. Ev- ery joint in the woman’s body has be come set, even to her jaws, but through tbe loss of several front teeth a tube is inserted into the mouth, enabling the woman to take nourishment in a liquid form. On Wednesday night Mrs. Palmer s seized with severe pains in tbe stomach, but medical aid being sum moned she soon gained relief. With all these troubles she is totally blind, but is able to carry on partial conversa tion. With tbe beginning of her troubles her husband left her and took up bis residence in Connecticut, where be ob tained a divorce. In order to support herself she is soon to have photographs of herself taken and placed on the market for sale. - An Old Tomb. From tbe Columbus Enquirer-Sun. In the old cemetery at Midway church, in Liberty county, this state, known as St. John’s parish,;in the days of colon ial government, are still standing some slabs of wood over the grave of “Mary Quarterman, wife of Robert Quarter- man.” This identical wooden memento has been standing since 1770, and though lichens and moss have spread all over the fibrous tombstone, yet 119 years have proven that it is as durable as mar ble and as lasting as brass.

A European journal has made t e alarming discovery that monarchy in Europe is in danger of dying out, owing to the increase of lunacy in royal families. The newspaper says that more t twenty princes and princesses have been under medical treatment for mental dis ease, and the number displays dency toward rapid increase i* attributed to close intermarriage. PUBLIC APPOINTMENTS. President Harrison States His Position on Appointments to Office. From tbe New York World. Tbe president on two occasions last week gave expression to sentiments that it would be well for applicants for office to consider. The first occasion was when a friend of an applicant for tbe Marshal- ship of Kentucky called to ascertain bow soon a change in that office might be ex pected. He stated to tbe president that the democratic incumbent bad sent' iff bis resignition, and expected to be re lieved at an early day. “But he’ll continue to serve until bis successor is appointed and qualified?” suggested the president. “Oh! certainly,”-replied the visitor. “Well, then,” continued the president, “tell your]]friend that at" present we are engaged here on more jiressing business.” The second occasion was when an ap plicant for a presidential postmastership called. The man was a friend of the president and so took ibe liberty of pro= ducing his recommendations and bring ing the subject up at once. The presi dent looked over the papers and seemed to be satisfied. Yes,” he commented, “everything is in your favor, and I’ll remember you. File your papers and when tfie time comes you may look out for a commis sion.” The man turned away with a spread ing smile on his face, but as be did so the president inquired: “Is there a vacancy in that office?” Tbe reply was that tbe commission of the democratic incumbent bad fourteen months to run. “Well, that puts a new phase on the matter,” said the president. ' It opens up an important and entirety new question. My first attention must be given to those places essentially repre sentative in character and where changes must as soon as possible follow the change the people have made in the head of the government. Then come those places where vacancies exist by reason of death or resignation. But what I should do if I took up your case would be to be gin tbe cancellation of commissions. Now you know we must be slow about that. It would not be wise to take a step that would lead, if followed up, to the disarrangement of the business of the people. The government is a vast affair now and must be run on business princi ples, and we must be careful hot to throw out'Oj^u: ELOPEMENT IN SIGH LIFE CHICAGO SOCIETY CIRCLES IN A WHIRL OF EXCITEMENT.

GOOD FOR EVIL. a ten- The trouble Diamond Thief Owes His Pardon to His Victim—Her Generosity. From the Chattanooga Times. On petition of Miss Fannie Davenport, backed by the Memphis delegation in the legislature, Gov. Taylor, on the twentieth, pardoned Charles Talbott, who stole Miss Davenport’s diamonds while night clerk at the Gayoso hotel, in Memphis, in 1887, and was sent up for six years. Talbott sent a message to Miss Davenport yesterday by a Mrs. Fetlu, who appeared at the capitoK.this morning and wanted the pardon, which had been handed to War den Petry. She became excited and accused Dick Adlum, who was standing by, of taking the pardon himself in order that he might give it to Talbott. She became very angry and threatened to cowhide everybody concerned, but Gov. Taylor succeeded in pacifying her. Tal bott was released at noon and called on Miss Davenport, who handed him a roll of bills amounting to several hundred dollars and gave him some friendly advice. SIXTY-TWO LIVES LOST- Particulars of the Wreck of the Spanish Steamer Bemus. •China mail advices per the steamship City of Pekin, concerning the loss of the Spanish steamship Remus, along the Phillippine Islands, January 24, says that sixty-t,\y°,U ves were lost out of 196 people on board. The Remus was Engaged in the coasting trade, hut at the time was taking out reliefs of soldiers to their various stations in the Phillippine Islands* aiid struck a reef near Point Bilariam, about two days’ voyage from Manila, sinking thirty-five feet of water. The surviving officers and passengers were picked up by the gunboat Argus. An American Girl Suicides at Berlin. Miss Helen Buttrock, an American girl who was studying music in Berlin, com mitted suicide the other day. The story of the unfortunate affair, cabled to this country, is as follows: Lately Miss Butt- rock fell behind in her studies, and one of the teachers reproached her very severely for it. Being quite sensitive, she felt the rebuke keenly, and told some of her friends that it was an unneces sarily harsh one. A few days later she disappeared from the academy, and a search resulted in the finding of her body in the river Spree. She was from Mid- ford, N.

The Fifth Daughter of Chief Justice Ful ler Elopes and Marries at a Hotel—The Ceremony Performed by a Justice of the Peace—Story of the Affair. A dispatch from Milwaukee,. Wisconsin, dated the 20th, says: When the 6:30 train arrived here last evening a petite woman was helped off the steps of a parlor car bya well-knit young man with a smooth face. The lady was closely veiled and was escorted to a carriage by her companion. They were driven at once".to the Kirby house, where, they reg istered. No room was assigned to them, and the lady and her companion spent the early-evening in the parlor. About 9 o’clock 5 the • young man came down stairs; and informed the clerk that he wanted iV justice of the peace. Inside of fifteen minutes Justice Gregory arrived. There was a hurried consultation* and then , the young man brought the blushing young lady forward. The ceremony .was a brief one, and the Justice, who is a very prosaic old gentleman, put on no extra frills. He did not know that the bride was a daughter of the Chief Justice of the United States, and neither did any of tf lose who were present outside of the conjracting parties. When the ceremony waslconcluded, the old justice called for wifelessesj and’two young men were cap- tul I in the billiard room and ran to affix tlip signatures to the necessary docu- me ^ . Mrs. Aubrey, nee Pauline Fuller, is : ^ leteen years of age, highly educated an< • remarkably handsome woman. J. Mas Aubrey, Jr., is twenty-two years of ageV J. k M, Aubrey, Jr., has been a resident of i hicago since 1866, when he left Mill aukee. He is well-known here, and cont ressman Isaac Van Shaick is one of his i lOstintimate friends. Young Aubrey, is nployed in his father’s office in Chi; -go. He is a handsome young fell i v. As near as can be learned, the acqi i lintance of the bride and groom beg ' about three years ago. Justice Fuller, who was then plain Lawyer Fuller, liven with his eight daughters on Lake ayenue, only a short distance from the home of young Aubrey. The young people first met at a party given in the neigii borhood. An attachment sprang up between them, and when it became ap- osed by the Fulle: would marry whom slie pleased. Her father recognized lier right, hut Mrs. Fuller continued to oppose the match. About the first of January last Miss Pauline came to Chicago, and has since remained in that city visiting friends of the family. The story of the elopement of the young pair is an interesting one, and demonstrates that young Aubrey has cut his eyeteeth. To begin with, he hired two detectives to shadow him and his affianced until they left Chicago, his ob ject being to" learn if any one was fol lowing them, and to prevent the young lady being rescued. It was early in the afternoon when he met Miss Fuller, and a Chicago candy store was the trysting place. They boarded a Milwaukee & St. Paul train at the Union depot at 3:30 p. m., and came direct to this city. A correspondent called on justice Greg ory early the next morning and greatly astonished him by informing him that he had married the daughter of the chief justice of the United States. On look ing at the marriage certificate, however, he was more surprised. There before his eyes was the full names of the chief jus tice and his wife, as well as those of the groom’s father and mother. Young Aubrey proposes to remain in Milwaukee a few days. A Heavy Bride. Miss Alice Hogaboom of Vermont, who was married to Alfred Thompson in Bos ton the : other day, weighed 650 pounds. She is a blonde, with an array of hand some, hut colossal, charms. The husband, on the other hand, is a little fellow weighing only ninety pounds. The clergy man said the happy couple had evidently been brought together by “the divine law of contraries,” which made opposites seek each other. He said Jie was pleased to officiate at the ceremony, but did not know what he should have done if, in his capacity as Baptist clergyman, he had been called upon to baptize Mrs. Thomp son. He advised her simply to “sit down” on her husband if he ever got wayward or fractious, and told Albert not to attempt to dandle Alice on his knee". He said Alice was satisfied with very little, hut Albert evidently “wanted the earth,” and he was just on the point of getting it. It took fifty-six yards of white satin to make the bridal dress, and the gauntlets worn by the bride were the legs of silk stockings. She had on No. 14 satin slippers, and her silk stockings were the biggest ever made in Boston, costing $28. Her husband hpught her wedding presents costing $6,000, includ ing a $4000 pair of diamond earrings. “I might as well invest my money in dia monds as anything else,” he said. -It is claimed that there are 5,000 tailors in and near Boston out of work, because, as alleged, the local clothing manufac turers send their goods to New York city to be made up by the cheap labor of the tenement house districts. THE LUSCIOUS BANANA. How it is Eaten in the Tropics—Tbe Thumb Variety. •’ Ordinarily in this country bananas are eaten raw, hut in tropical countries, while the natives eat them in like fashion, a more delicate and, it is said, a more healthy mode of eating them is in vogue. The soft, ripe fruit, beaten to a cream with sufficiency of Amontillado sherry, forms a very delightful appetizer and is the favorite way of eating the banana in certain parts of the West Indies and on the African coast. Taken in moderation on first rising in the morning bananas are said to be preservative of health, and in Ibis respect are in marked contrast with other tropical fruits which are detrimen- A San Antonio banker has sent Presi dent Harrison a chair made of horns of China mail advices, per steamship city Pekin, concerning the loss of the tal, rather than otherwise, to co n tinu e d-f ^ auisl1 learner R e mus among the Phil- £rood health. An intoxicating drink is hpme Islands, January 30, says that sixty- two lives were lost out of 169 people on good hi made fro; An intoxicating drink is the banana and on account of its astringent properties is of consider- able medicinal value. . In Africa-.and probably in other places* also, the banana and the kindred tree, the plantain; are in a very large measure the sole dependence for the food supply of the natives. The banana, when ripe, contains 74 per cent, water; of the twenty-six remaining parts twenty are sugar and two gluten, or flesh-foaming substance. It is not in itself a perfect food, hut requires the ad dition of some mpre nitrogenous material, as lean meat. The pulp of the banana, hut more often of the plantain, is oftimes squeezed through a sieve and formed into loaves, which, when ripe, will keep a very long time. In the dried state it has a resem blance to bread, both in taste and compo sition, but the ripened pulp is saccharine, and not farinaceous. The fruit, however, of the banana, is the least valuable part of the tree. The fibre, which in some countries is per mitted to go to waste, is of value. Throughout Central America and the continent of Africa it is used, with only the preparation of drying, for sewing thread and fishing nets. The threads are of silky fineness, aiid it was thought that as an article of commerce it would pay to import it in large quantities. A firm in Bradford, England, having got possession of some of the fibre, wove a quantity of handkerchiefs from it, that for delicacy of finish and strength were unexcelled. With a silky sheen and a remarkably fine web, such articles would have obtained a ready market, but it was found |that the CURRENT COMMENT. cattle which cost $1,500.

Bad Blood, Knoxville Tenn, July 2, 1888.—The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.—Gentle men : A few years ago a severe case of blood poison manifested itself upon me, and I began taking S. S. S. The medicine had the desired effect, and in a short time my system was entirely cleansed. The medicine I found to be everything claimed for it, and will always be grate ful for what it has done for me. E. A. Stanley. Chattanooga, Tenn., July 2, 1888.— The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.—Gen tlemen—In January last, while working on the Daily Gazette, in Augusta, Ga., I contracted a had case of blood poison. Sore after sore made its appearance upon my body until, like job, I was covered from head to foot. I had the best medi cal attention, hut did not improve. For thirty days I was a horror to myself and abhorrence to my friends. Finally I left Augusta and landed in Chattanooga two months ago. My sufferings were intoler able, and I was on the point of ending my life. A printer whom I had known in Augusta told me to try Swift’s Specific. In desperation I commenced taking it. My appetite soon returned and then I began to improve rapidly. The sores begap to heal and to disappear, and soon they were all gone. To-day there is but one evidence of the terrible ordeal through which I passed—a scar on my right leg. Everything else is gone, and I am a well man. » John M. Reabden, 1013 Calhoun St., Augusta, Ga.

A salt trust is the latest bom of a blood sucking brood that become more numer ous every week. The salt makers of New York and Michigan have combined and disposed of their property to a “syndi cate,” which will immediately put up prices. The, members of the syndicate are kind enough, however, or cautious enough, to announce that prices will he put. up very slowly. They will not bru tally cut their victims’ throats, but will bleed them in a scientific, humane way. 01 carpet^* Vafuec 000. There are 172 carpet mills in the city and they employ 17,800 workmen. The growth of this industry has been re markably rapid. The latest use of photography is to make a cannon ball take a picture of its own wabblings. An arrangement some thing like a camera is placed in the for ward end of the projectile, and when it is fired directly at the sun the light traces lines upon the sensitive plate, from the direction of which it can be told whether the projectile has kept in one position or has wavered to and fro during its flight. The scheme is largely theoretical as yet. A lady was visiting a friend at Ameri- cus recently, and she wore a set of false teeth. A little 5-year-old boy saw her take the teeth from her mouth, and ran terrified to his mother, exclaiming: Mamma, mamma, Miss Mary pulled out a whole handful of teeth at once, and tore all the skin out of her mouth, and didn’t cry one bit. It didn’t hurt; you’ll have to give her all of old Speckle’s eggs to eat, for she can’t chew her vic tuals.” He couldn’t be made to under stand that they were false teeth, and was sure the lady would starve-to death. Mr. Chas. Freeman, of Troup Factory f near LaGrange, has an old darky living on his place who is a great chicken raiser, and who keeps some very fine birds. A few*days ago while one of his roosters was out picking around he was attacked by a large hawk, but he made the fight so lively that he had to have assistance. His mate being near came to his rescue, and the way the two made the feathers fly from that rooster was a caution. But the rooster was game and a good fighter, and the battle was long contested, the victory finally going to the hawks, who devoured part of the chicken and left. Epoch. The transition from long, lingering and painful sickness to robust health marks an epoch in ;the life of the individual. Such a remarkable event is treasured in. the memory, and the agency whereby the good health has been attained is grate fully blessed. Hence it is that so much is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. S© many feel they owe their restoration to health by the use of the Great Alterative and Tonic. If you are troubled with any disease of Kidneys, Liver or Stomach, of long or short standing you will surely find relief by use of Electric Bitters. Sold at 50c. and $1 per bottle at S.*J.

The state of Ohio wishes to perpetuate the fame of Andrews and his men who, during the civil war, captured a Western and Atlantic train and made a bold at tempt to bum all the bridges on the line and thus cripple the Confederacy, hut who were afterward caught and hung. The legislature of that state has appro- priated $8,000 for the purpose of erecting a grand monument over them. Their bodies lie in the National cemetery at Chattanooga. One day not a great while ago a man by the name of Coon called at the Waycross post office for his mail. He was followed by Mr. Fox, and that gentleman had barely cleared the door before Jim Wolf wanted his mail. Next day a Lamb and a Lyon marched in to see if there were any letters for their folks. Like to Hear Her State Talked. Against. A Kansas young lady, who was attend ing school in Boston, became indignant because one of the teachers talked abont the mortgages, the poverty and the wild western wickedness of her native state, and she left without saying good-by. There is such a thing as being too patriotic. The state that sent Mr. Ingalls to the senate probably deserves to have a few uncomplimentary things said about it.
