* A Wonderful Pump. If the details and figures given by a correspondent of the Chicago Record are exact concerning one of the pumps of the Calumet and Hecla mine, it is, without doubt, the greatest mechanism of the kind In the world, its capacity of water delivery being some 2,500,000 gallons every hour in the twenty-four, and even then without reaching its u most. The apparatus is a triple-ex- i panslon of 00,000,000 pumping gallons, engine standing with a capacl- j j ty near- j ly fifty feet in height and requiring 1,500-horse power for its operation, j and it has been proved by actual tests l that its nominal performance can j j easily be maintained for an indefinite time without injury or strain, and that, f pushed to the full extent, the pump | could handle approximately 75,000,000 gallons in twenty-four consecutive hours. The purpose of this pump is to furnish water for the great, stamp | mills of the Calumet and Hecla Com- j pany, which has twenty-two steam I pumps in continuous operation, daily | pulverizing 5,000 tons of conglomerate i rock into sand so fine that it can bo i carried away by a stream of swiftly ; running water. The pump is located j near the lake shore and below the mills, so as to force a steady stream of | water to the upper portions of the I mill, where innumerable small jets play upon the great slime tallies anil Jigs. Here it Is that the specific grav- I ity of the fine particles of copper con¬ | tained in the rock separate the valu¬ able mineral from the mass of worth- j less sand, the size and force of the i streams of water being so nicely regu¬ lated as to wash away the sand and yet carry with It the minimum of copper. Benefit of Horn Shedding. The large blood vessels that feed the horns, xihile they arc still “In the vel¬ vet,’’ furnish so much bony substance that the vessels are constricted and so shut off; this can be seen at the base of a pair of preserved horns, where the channels between ridges were vein courses. Thus the horn dies, drops Its velvet skin, or It is worn off. and tbe horn Itself ultimately drops or Is knocked off. This Is well for the ani¬ mal, as the horn-growing Is a great draught, on vital force, and Is only ncedei' for the lighting season, Tn one genus that of the reindeer, the fe- binle also has horns, hut it.

Peculiar Foot of the Reindeer, The foot of the reindeer is cloven in tie middle, and each half is turned up in front. These two sections of the foot are greatly elongated, and capable of great lateral expansion. When tho foot Is placed on the ground the t%vo sections expand three or four inches, and when it is raised again a muscular contraction brings the two digits to¬ gether with a loud clattering noise, it is this peculiar sound which one hears half a mile away when the reindeer ate approaching, Secondary hoofs that are not developed in other deer are greatly prolonged in tho reindeer, nnd having a slight backward inclina¬ tion, they add valuable support to the animal. Thus, with such a peculiar foot conformation, the reindeer se- cures a good foothold on any solid sub- stance, and performs wonders of strength aud agility within the Arctic circle where all other animals are placed at a disadvantage.

TWENTY-EIGHT LIYES WERE LOST. Fenncd Cp lly Wall., the Unfortunates * Could Not Kaenpe Heath List May Be Increased. A ppeoift! from Garrisons, N. Y fitafofl . . that . !l feflrfnl , , , catastrophe A 4 oc- mured on the Hudson Itiver railroad Sunday morning, Prom the sleep that means refresh - ment and rest, to the eternal sleep that knows no waking, plunged, in the twinkling of an eye, twenty-eight souls—men, women and children. Into the slimy bed of the Hudson river a train laden with slumbering humanity plowed, dragging through the watefs the passengers. There was nothing to presage the terrible accident which so suddenly deprived those nnfortu- fortunates of life. The Now York Central train left Buffalo Saturday night and had pro- grossed for nearly nine-tenths of the distance toward its destination, when with the great engine, plunged into the depths of the river. Neither (n- gineer nor fireman will ever tell the story of that terrible moment, for with his hand upon the throttle, the en- gineer plunged with his engine to the river bottom and the fireman, too, was at his post. Behind them came the express ear, the combination car and the sleepers, and these piled on top of the engine. It is known that, the morning was a trifle foggy and that the track was not visible, biit if there was any break in the lines of steel it must have been of very recent happening, for only an hour before there had passed over it a heavy passenger, train, laden with hu- man freight. Neither is there an ex- plaiiation ready. 'of All is conjecture. The section road was supposed to be the very best on the entire division, What seems to have happened was flint underneath the tracks and tics the heavy wall had given way and when the great weight, of the engine struck the. unsupported tracks it went crash- ing through the rest of the wall and toppled over into the river. Then there happened what on tbe railroad at any other time would linvo caused disaster, but now proved n verv blessing. As the train plunged over the embankment the coupling that, held the last three sleepers broke anti they miraciilouslv remained on the broken track, lii that way some sixty lives were raved. Of eye witnesses, there were none except the crew of a tugboat passing with a tow. They saw the train with its light as it came dashing about the curves, and then saw the greater part of it go into the river. Some of the cars with closed windows floated, and tire tug, whistling for help, cast off its hawser and started to the rescue. There were in the smoker, in affili- nm to tlm Poekskill, baggage man, Herman Ac- ker of who was m Ins com- partment; eight umnnmen, en route, from the Canadian bonier to New \ork, an<l aman supposed to bo Thom- as Reilly, ot ht. Louis. All of these excepting the baggage master perished. llxe day conch contained eighteen or twenty passengers, many of whom were women and children. How many of these escaped is not known, hut at least twelve were drowned or lulled in this ear. Behind the eoneli were the six sleepers, the Glenalpme, with fifteen passengers; ho Hermes, with twelve passengers; "I’ cL el n ,; 1B l ’"'VI’ wRh u about , fifteen: Anita nearly , full, and the Ivaoket lviver, with no passen- gers.

THREE STOOD OUT FOR ACQUITTAL The Ilig Sntisagcmaker Furnishes a State¬ ment to Representatives of the Associated Fress. A Chicago special says: The Luet- gert jury failed to agree and asa.result a mistrial in the celebrated case was declared by Judge Tuthill Thursday morning. As soon as the court was called to order Foreman Heiekhold handed the following to Clork Enoch, who, by order of tbe court read it aloud: “We, the jurors in the case of the i people of the stnte of Illinois, vs. A. L. Luetgert, tender to the presiding .judge, the Hon. Richard S. Tuthill, and the brilliant state’s attorney, Charles 8. Dcneen, and his no less brilliant assistant, Mr. W. M. Me- Ewen, as well as the attorneys for the defense, our most heartfelt thanks for the very kind treatment we have re¬ ceived at their hands, and we do not j j hesitate the in to which state that they were have it attended not for way to our personal comfort, as well as to ; j our sanitary condition, the hardship would have been very great. “As to the trial we wish to state that, while the evidence was such that we were unable to agree upon a ver¬ dict, one tiling we did agree about, and that is that the circumstances were such that the police had ample reason to prosecute on the showing without hearing the defense, and we commend them for having done their duty on this case.” This was sigtied by Foreman Heick- hold and tbe balance of the jury. The jurors were evidently of the opinion that the statement was enough to give the public at this time. The twelve men were divided as fol¬ lows: For conviction nnd the death penal¬ ty—Heiekhold, Boyd,Bibby,Mahoney, Behmiller, Hosmer, Shaw, Pranzen and Fowler. Por acquittal—Hnvley, Holnbirn and Barber. IiUctgcrt’B Statement.. Thursday night the Associated Press obtained the one great feature missing in the famous trial—the sworn testi¬ mony of the defendant himself. Standing in the gloomy jail adjoin¬ ing the grim looking gray stone court building in which his remarkable trial had at last been brought to a finish, the burly sausage manufacturer capped tbe climax of the extraordinary scries of events which began with his sensa¬ tional bankruptcy nnd the alleged frightful diabolism of boiling his wife to death at midnight in a vat in his factory cellar. Closely following the final result of the trial, which lias attracted world-wide attention, Luetgert made under oath a statement for the Asso¬ ciated Press concerning the fearful crime charged against him, the first sworn statement vet made by him, and the first sworn statement of such kind ever known in newspaperau- I ,,a!s ' The affidavit was put in writing, m ,1uo !e & nl form - and is certified to b J « notary.

Recent press dispatches, raporting the mysterious disappearance of a large sum of money in transit through the mails from a banking house in Chicago to one of its western corres- pondents, prompted an inquiry as to the cause for such an amount being intrusted to the postal service, and, when approached on the subject, a prominent official of one of the leading express companies stated that the last year had witnessed a radical change in the transporation of moneys, which formerly had all been forwarded by express, but were now being sent in many instances by mail, the aggregate postage and registry fees representing a difference as compared with express rates that tempted many to depart from the old method and adopt the new. The official added further that fre¬ quent tinin robberies had compelled the express companies to go to great expense in equipping their through cars with stationary combination safes, which as recent “hold-ups” bad prov¬ en, afford security against any at¬ tempts on the part of road agents to get at the contents, but that even should they succeed in the majority of cases little would now be obtained for their pains on account of the diversion of the moneys from express to the mails, and it would not be unnatural to expect that “Uncle Horn” would soon have his hands full looking after the protection of the valuable parcels in his care, as train robbery will, of course, go where the money it, and it is now in the mail instead of the ex¬ press car. Inquiry as to what steps the express companies would take to regain the traffic elicited the reply that they had expended all the revenues from this source in the past in surrounding the money with every possible protection and running dowh and punishing theives, and that they would simply wait until such losses as the one re¬ ferred to and the attention of train robbers to this new channel for trans¬ porting moneys proved it to be neither a successful nor profitable experiment. GIRL’S OWN SCHEME. Sensational Sequr-l to the Henthcock “Assault” at ChlekamauKA Park. A Chattanooga, Toun., special says: A sensation that has set the people of that section agog with excitement de¬ veloped at Chickamauga park Friday. Several months a go the whole of north Georgia, as well as Chattanooga, was aroused over what was at the time reported to be a brutal attempt by an unknown man w ith led hair and blue eyes to assault the seventeen-year-old daughter of James Heathcoclc, an em¬ ploy's of the park commissioners. Ten or fifteen men, in a measure answering the description of the “brute,’’were arrested and taken before the Heatheock women, and a lynching was only averted because they pro¬ nounced each mail “not the guilty one.” The girl became a mother a few days ago and Heatheock, the father, was much surprised, he having along with the public beon misled by the story of the criminal assault. Ho began an in¬ vestigation and now states that thero was no criminal assault, but that the girl had been beaten into insensibility by she the mother on the occasion when was found insensible by one of the guards, and that the story of the crim¬ inal assault was concocted in order to save the girl’s reputation. There wms a standing reward for the arrest of the “fiend,” which has now' been with¬ drawn when the facts as stated became known. AGED COUPLE MURDERED.

Interest in the progress of ihe' fever in Biloxi was swallowed np in the ex¬ citement of a most horrible murder and arson, committed Friday morning upon a most estimable couple of elder¬ ly people living out on Back Bay, about three or four miles from the city. Word was received in the city about 4 a. m. that the Parkhurst property had been burned aud that Mr. J. L. Park- hurst and his wife had been consumed in the, flames.

About the Cause of * * jpifagSglfl Everybody into this world with • * comes a pre* I | i* ' disposition to disease of some particular tissue; iu other words, everybody has a weak spot. M By tta iy / J In ninety-nine cases out of a hundred the | vfeak spot in women is somewhere in the uter- i ine system. The uterine organs have less ree w’lril. ,) ' sistance to disease than the vital organs; that’s why they give out the soonest. ' Not more than one woman in -a hundred— nay., in five hundred—has perfectly healthy organs of generation. This points to the stern necessity of helping one's self just as soon as the life powers seem to be on the wane. Excessive menstruation is a sign of physical weakness and want of tone in the uterine organs. It saps the strength away and produces anemia (blood turns to water). v If you become anemic, there is no knowing what will happen. If your gums and the inside of your lips amj inside your eyelids look pale in color, you are in a dangerous way and must stop that drain on your powers. Why not build up on a generous, uplifting tonic, like Lydia L. Pinkham s Vegetable Compound? Ehp.ig, 413 Church St., Bethlehem, Pa., fM V { Mbs.

AFTER THE SURRENDER.’ General Cract Would Permit No Celebra¬ tion at Appomottax. General Horace Porter, in his ‘ Cam¬ paigning with Grant,” in the Century, describes the surrender at Appomat tox. General Porter says: Before parting Lee asked Grant to notify Meade of the surendcr, fearing that fighting might break out on that front, and lives be uselessly lost.. This request w'as complied w'ith, and two Union officers were sent through the enemy's lines as the shortest route to Meade, some of Lee’s officers accom¬ panying them to prevent their being interfered w'ith. A little before four o’clock General Lee shook hands with General Grant, bow'ed to the other of¬ ficers, and with Colonel Marshall left the room. One after another we fol¬ lowed, and passed out to the porch. Lee signaled to his orderly to bring up his horse, and while the animal was being bridled the general stood on the lew'est step, and gazed sadly in the di¬ rection of the valley beyond, where his army lay—now an army of pri¬ soners. He thrice smote the palm of his left hand slowly with his right fist in an absent sort of way, seemed not to see the group of Union officers in the yard, who rose respectfully at his approach, and. appeared unaware of everything about him. All appre¬ ciated the sadness that overwhelmed him, and he had the personal sym¬ pathy of every one who beheld him at this supreme moment of trial. The approach cf his horse seemed to re- cal him from his reverie, and he at once mounted. General Grant now , stepped dow'n from the porch, moving toward him, and saluted him by rais¬ ing his hat. He was followed in this act of courtesy by all our officers pres¬ ent. Lee raised his hat respectfully, and rode off at a slow trot to break the sad news to the brave fellow's whom he had so long commanded. General Grant and his staff then started for the headquarters camp, which, in the meantime, had been pitched near-hy.
