Removal.—
I now occupy the old stand of
R. L. Daughtry. The in
creased space gives me an
opportunity to display the
many goods I have hereto
fore been compelled by lack
of room to store away.
For the convenience of
the people of Brunswick, I
have purchased an electric
clock, connected by wire
with the Naval Observatory
at Washington. Every day
at 11 o’clock a. m., standard,
I want all who carry watches
to call at my store and get
Washington time.
This clock is daily cor
rected from Washington at
noon, standard (ii o’clock
here) and every watch in
Brunswick should be regu
lated by it.
Don’t forget’ this. Regu
late your watch’and \ou will
appreciate its value.

THE SLEEP OF DEATH.
A DrowsineSM That Attacks People iu
Some Climates Months Before Death.
An interesting account descriptive of
the “sleepy disease," peculiar to Africa,
is given in the “Journal of an African
Cruiser.” Persons attacked by this
singular malady are those who take
little exercise and live principally on I
vegetables, particularly cassoda and
rice. Some observers ascribe it to the
cassoda, which is strongly narcotic.
Not improbably the climate has much I
influence, the disease being most prev
alent in low and marshy regions.
Irresistible drowsiness continually
weighs down the patient, who can be
kept awake only for the few minutes
needful to take a little food. When
this lethargy has lasted three or four
months death comes, but only in the
form of deeper slumber. The author
of the book mentioned tells of a mem
ber of the royal family of Luakaka
who was afflicted with this curious di
sease :
“I found the aspect of Queen Mau
mee’s beautiful granddaughter incon
ceivably affecting. It was strange to |
see her so quiet, in a sleep from which 1
it might be supposed she would awake |
Nil! of youthful vigor, aud yet to know
that this was no refreshing slumber, I
but a spell in which she was fading for
ever from the eyes that loved her.
“This young girl was but 14 years of
age. With some difficulty she was
aroused, and woke with a frightened
cry —a strange, broken murmur—as if I
she were looking dimly out in the I
phantasies of a dream. Her eyes were
wild and glassy; rolled wildly in their
sockets for a second, then immediately
sunk into the deep and heavy sleep in
which we found her. This poor, j
doomed girl had been suffering for
about three months—no, not suffering. I
for, except when forcibly aroused,
there appears to be no uneasiness until I
aftertheend of the third month of this !
unnatural slumber, when the victim i
becomes wild and constantly rolls his '
or her head from side to side—never ;
opening the eyes—death ensuing -within .
! a few days after these symptoms set in. ”
To Meet Her Lover.
At 5:30 in the morning a well dressed
young woman arrived in Utica from I
Castle Garden. She had come all the !
way from a place in western Russia,
and was on her way to meet her lover
in Duluth, Minn., who had left her
two years before to find a home for
both of them in the New World. He
went to Duluth and became fairly
prosperous. As soon as he was able he
wrote to his sweetheart and urged her
to come to him, but the age and sick
ness of her parents kept her in Russia
until this year. Both her parents
having died, the young man sent her
tickets to bring her to America, with
what he supposed was sufflcient money i
for the journey. The young woman
began her journey more than a •
month ago, and when she arrived at I
Castle Garden thought she must be |
within a few hours’ journey of her ;
friend. She came on to Utica, as
stated, and was taken to the Central
depot, whence she was to proceed on
her journey by another train.
She waited about the depot all day,
and at night in broken German told
Leonard Pruey, the baggage master,
that she had not had anything to eat
all day, and had only twenty cents in
her purse. When she had recited the
whole story, and Mr. Pruey told her
that instead of a few hours she would
yet have several days of travel, her
distress was pitiful. The kind hearted
baggageman promised to do all he
could for her, and began his ministra
tions by giving her a square meal. He
then interested himself iu bettering her
financial condition, and told Conductor
John Unser, of the Rome, Watertown
and Ogdensburg, about it. Mr. Unser
was bound north with his train and
made no promises, but early the next
morning when he came to Utica again
he gave Mr. Pruey a purse of money
which he had collected on his train to
help the girl on her way. She finally
left Utica, after a delay of about twen
ty-four hours, with a big bag of provi
sions and many good wishes.—Utica
Herald.
Snaket* at ScrapeNkillet*
Near Scrapeskillet, Ind., the swamp
lands are so infested with snakes as to
be positively dangerous for travelers.
Friday, while a fanner and his wife
were driving in a wagon, they met
three large snakes in the road, which
not only refused to turn out to one
side of the road, but showed fight.
They were finally beaten off by the
farmer after considerable trouble with
his mules, which were almost crazed
with fright.
On the same day a physician from
Yankeetown, driving in a road cart, i
was confronted by a number of snakes |
in the road at the same place. His '
horse became frightened and ran away, 1
leaving him at their mercy, and but for
the timely assistance of passers by he
would have doubtless been bitten to
death. As it was he had a severe tus
sle. The people of the neighborhood
have organized themselves for the pur
pose of exterminating the reptiles.—

The newest thing hi baby carriages is
a contrivance that by means of various
appliances may be transformed into a
sled, a cradle and a go-cart. The cra
dle, instead of being provided with
I rockers, hangs from the ceiling by a
spiral spring, and the spring itself plays
• an important part in the adjustment of
the sun shade that goes with the car

acter.
Modern Heroes.
“Then l are just aa many heroes and
heroines now as in any age before,’’ >
says a Cleveland paper, “but the op ’
[Hirtimitlc* for exhibiting acts of hero
ism are somewhat scarcer.” That's
entirely ci.m-ct, unless a young lady
wants to pick t>(> the brooin and give

ODDS AND ENDS.
A man in Jefferson county, Pa., is
said to have lost his sight from drink
ing too much ice water when heated.
M. Stambouloff, the premier and
practical ruler of Bulgaria, is about 46 I
years old. He is short, rather stout,
and with his round face, black mus-
I tache and small gray eyes somewhat
1 resembles a Cliinainan.
The Duke of Fife is one of the
shrewdest of business men. All his in- 1
vestments turn out well. He took some
I founders’ shares in a London trust com- ■
pany not long ago at $l5O each, and :
they are now worth $4,500 each.
A writer upon birds says that in the
fields and groves there are many old
maids and bachelors who apparently
never had any inducement to marry.
There is no doubt that the rivalry in '
bird courtship is extremely keen, and
the choice is a deliberate one.
They have a curious custom at the
burial of unmarried women in Brazil.
The coffin, hearse and the livery of the
driver must be bright scarlet, the four
white horses drawing the hearse must
I be covered with scarlet net, and scarlet
plumes must deck the horses’ heads.
Numbers of Hindoos were to be seen
| recently wandering about the Lahore
| bazars carrying bones of their de
| ceased relatives round their neeks.
j They were pilgrims going to Hurd war.
j Most of them left the train at Jhelum
to wash the bones in the sacred waters (
of Hydasnes, and then repurchased
; tickets for their onward journey.
Statistics of religious growth for the
i past year gathered by The Independent
I show that there are in the United
States 151,261 churches of all denomi
nations, 103,300 ministers and nearly
22,000,000 members. During the year
there has been an increase of 8,500
; churches, nearly 4,900 ministers and
I nearly 1,090,000 members.
At Bristol, England, are two young
I artisans -who are the prize twins of the
! world. They are of the same height
: and weight; have eyes, hair and com
plexion of the same color; walk, speak,
■ laugh, sing exactly alike; follow the
I same occupation; have the same re
ligious persuasion grid likes and dis-
I likes; are both married, and have the
same number of children, who are of
the same sexes —three bovs and three ,
girls.
The captain of a schooner that late
ly arrived at Titusville, Fla., a few
days ago captured near St. Lucie river
two manatees or sea cows. Both of
the creatures are females, the larger
one measuring 8,1-2 feet in length and
weighing 650 pounds. The other is 8 feet
and weighs fifty pounds less. The
manatee is a warm blooded mammal,
an animal that suckles its young, and
is a cross between a whale and a seal.
I It lives on vegetable food entirely, re
fusing flesh of all kinds.
The largest known springs are those
! bursting up from the ocean floor. Off
I the coast of Florida, in the Gulf of
I Mexico, a few miles from the shore, a
I large spring of fresh water rises to the
J surface, furnishing water to fishermen
and sailors, who dip it up in the midst
I of tile salt water of the gulf. A few miles
shore of Florida,

| (lanMßHso large is this spring that
Lieut. STaury took his little coast sur
vey steamer on the top of “the boil,”
and it was quickly swept to one side by
the boiling spring.
Cleaning Oil Barrels.
The question is asked if coal oil bar
rels can be cleaned for meat. A friendly
fanner writes to The Mining and Sei-"
entitle News: “I have used them for
fifteen years witli perfect success.
Knock out the head, set tire to a piece
of paper and put it in the barrel. The
fire will burn with a loud roar. Roll
the barrel round so it will burn out
even, and when it is burned one-eighth
of an Rich deep turn in about a pint of
coal oil, roll around until it is spread
all over the inside, then fire again.
Scrape off most of the charcoal and
wash it out. It is not necessary to burn
over one-eighth inch deep. I will guar
antee there will never be the slightest
taste of coal oil in the meat. I have
used these barrels for ham, pork, beef,
lard and honey. Old, musty or tainted
barrels I treat in the same way by using
a pint or so of oil. Have treated lin
seed oil barrels the same way.”
Sagasta Friendly to France.
M. Cainbon, the French ambassador
to Madrid, has been summoned to Paris.
There is a good deal of curiosity felt
in the political world here as to the
reasons which urged Queen Christina
to dismiss the Sagasta cabinet. That
cabinet took the initiative of a policy
;of conciliation toward France. Its
, friendliness was shown in a marked
' manner when Prince Bismarck was
i getting up the exhibition boycott last
year. Senor Leon y Castillo, the re
| tiring ambassador, was of like mind
■ witli Senor Sagasta, and hence the be-
I stowal on him, as he was quitting the
I Spanish embassy, of the Grand Cross
i of the Legion of Honor.—Paris Cor.

A Split Ear.
The curious case is mentioned by a
German doctor of a man who experi
enced unpleasant crackling noises in
the left ear during a jieriod of a year
and a half. These occurred every few :
seconds, and could lie heard by any |
person lit u distance of a foot. There
was no deafness or inflammation, tut
