HELENA, Mont, Oct 19. According to well authenticated reports the Northern Pacific Railway Company is not alone in Its troubles with the dynamiters through it has so far been the only sufferer. For several days there have been a number of Great Northern secret service men in Helena and vicinity and it has developed that their mission is to try and locate the person who has sent the company a letter levying blackmail. Just when the letter was received by the Great Northern, no one in authority will say, or "who it was addressed to, but it is ltnown that such a letter has been re ceived. The letter was mailed at Cas cade and it demanded the payment of $15,000. The railroad company was com manded to fly a signal If it acceded to the demand and was given until Tuesday evening, October 20, to comply. If It did not then the amount of the blackmail would be raised to $30,000 and to show that business was meant dynamite would be used on the rails. Instead of displaying the signal, the rail way company has sent Its detectives to Montana to try and ferret out the writer of the letter. SUSPECT HANGED BIIMSELF. Wcrto Had Promined to Tell of Mur der -ot Mm. ICate Lanman. ST. LOUIS. Oct 18. It is believed by the police that the mystery of the mur der of Mrs. Kato Lauman, whose dead body was found lying by the roadside near Normandy Thursday, .has been part ly solved through the suicide tpday pf John Williams, a. negro, arrested late last night as ra suspect "Williams, who said he had recently come from Mississippi, made several at tempts to sell a revolver yesterday and this aroused suspicion. He was taken into custody and placed in the Clayton Jail last night He asserted his Innocence, but under severe questioning made the remark: "Well,, there are others in this. I will tell you more about it tomorrow." This morning a small fire occurred near the Jail and caused some excitement After it had been extinguished Sheriff Herxcken wont to Williams cell to ques tion him and found the prisoner dead. He had hanged himself. Acting on the possible clew uttered by Williams the police are now searching for others implicated. The body of Mrs. Lauman was buried today. DETECTIVE IS CONVICTED. F. M.

TIPS. FOR A BRITISHER. The Game of Baseball as Explained by a. Yoansr American. New York Sun. He was an Englishman and he had been sent with a young American to the baseball grounds to learn the National game. "Just listen to the youngsters," was the advice he got when they started for the grounds. "You'll soon catch on." "Say," began Jimmy when they had got settled on the bleachers and Jimmy had made a successful long-distance con nection with tho peanut man, "the Giants are putting up a great game and we're likely to see something doing every minute. Wonder who's going to be on the slab today. (Aside to the man with tho score card on the left) Who's down to the twirling? McGlnnlty? Thanks." "What do you mean?" asked the Brit ish visitor. "Oh," replied Jimmy. "I was finding out who was going to put 'em over the plate. Oh, I forgot you weren't on. I was asking who was going to pitch. "Yes, the pitcher, he's something like tho bowler, I guess. You see, he's tho fellow. who slams the ball up to the bat ter and the batter ho tries to punch the sphere out of the lot so as to make the circuit tho round trip get a run in, I mean. "Oh, yes. tho batter doesn't always connect But McGlnnlty is the boy that can make the best of 'em fan-r-striko 'em out Strike out? That's putting tScree good ones over the plate without the batter doing any business. "I'd rather bo a pitcher than anybody else. It's great fun to do the twirling and put the benders around tho batter and then toss up easy pills that fool the sluggers, and then when the scorer is put ting up the goose-egg, walk up to the grandstand and take a tug at your cap as If you didn't caro about any applause. "It's a great thing to be a curve artist I tell you. Just let roe operate from the middle and I'm all right "Pitching ain't easy, though. I've seen many a dewdrop operator hypnotize 'em for eight innings nnd then go 'way up in the air do the balloon act and give 'em free passes and let 'em punish him with all sorts of smashes until the boss yanks him out and sends In a new man to stop the slaughter. "Every twlrler gets oft the trolley once in a while. That's where a good man with the mitt comes in. He can hold a wild pitcher down steadily and stop the ascension and make the twlrler have confi dence In his shoots and curves. "'Next to pitching give me a Job in the diamond. You can see what's going on and you get a chance to stop the grass cutters and hand 'era over to the man on the Initial bag. Then, too, there's noth ing like squeezing a good, scorching liner hot from the willow and doubling 'em up at second in the ninth inning and with all the cushions full.

LOGANSPORT, Ind., Oct 19. Firo, sup posed to be of incendiary origin, this morning destroyed five business blocks and the railroad station, besides damag ing several other buildings at Galveston, Ind. The loss is estimated at $75,000. The telegraph operator at tho station reported the fire and asked for help while the station was burning. He was driven away by the flames and the wires wero burned, cutting off all communication. The Are department here and at Ko komo. loaded apparatus on relief trains and sent them to Galveston, which is a town, of 1000 people, 12 miles from hero. At 3 o'clock the fire was under control. She Bullied tho Burglar. Kansas City World. ST. LOUIS. Miss Mattle Benway, a pretty young miss, not only captured a daring burglar at the point of a revolver the other night but she forced him, under threats of being shot to walk to the tele phone, coll up the police station and ask that an officer be sent to place him under arrest MIbs Benway's home is at 1610 Wash ington avenue. It has been robbed twice, Therefore, Miss Benway determined to bo on hand when .the next burglar came around. Tho other nig;ht she was awak ened by a noise in' the hall. She peeped through the door'and saw a burglar in his stocking feet creeping up stairs. She grasped her revolver and crept up, too. When she got to the upper floor she found Mr. Burglar bending over a dress ins table. She was cool as an Iceberg. "So sorry to bother you, but will you call the police station over tho 'phone there?" The man hesitated. "I'm awfully nervous, and this trigger is a hair one," remarked Miss Benway, apologetically. The burglar obeyed. Then she ordered him to sit down, and kept him covered with the gun until tho wagon rattled up. "Gad! I'm glad to see you," he said to tho sergeant of police. "It's seemed like a year since she put that gun on me." GRANULATED EYELIDS. Murine Eye Remedy cures this and other Eye troubles, makes weak eyes strong. From. Consignees. 173S!

Barnum's Use o tho 'Fake "Over production" Canned the Bab ble to Burst. Every Washlngtonlan is familiar with the Hancock tavern, on Pennsylvania ave nue, between Twelfth 'and Thirteenth streets. Northwest which Is one of the re markable old curiosity shops in the city. The establishment has been running since 1842, and during that time three genera tlons of Hancocks have made a point of collecting things rare or curious or likely to be of interest to future generations. Among these is one which cannot be dupll cated elsewhere, and which deserves to be preserved as a curio that is a landmark in the history of frauds and fakes. The object is nothing more nor less than what in the past has been variously known as a .'Japanese mermaid," "Fiji mermaid," cnineso mermaia, etc For ages the Japancs'o and Chinese have been experts In the making of monsters and fabulous animals. Give a Japanese the tall of a dried fish, some monkey or pig BKin, ana a little wool or cotton, and he will turn out a mermaid which, If touna lying on the beach by one unac quainted with Its history, would be taken tor tha dried remains of just such a crea ture. Several centuries ago, when Eu ropean ships first found their way into Japanese waters, the Japanese heard a deal of mermaids and mermen from the superstitious Portuguese, Dutch and Eng lish sailors, so much that finally one day a shrewd workman constructed out of u piece of dried fish and part of a monkey's skin and skeleton what looked for all the world like a dead mermaid that had lain on the beach for several weeks, untlL the skin and- body were thoroughly mumml fled. This, of course, made a great sensa tlon among the Ignorant and superstitious European sailors, who purchased the frand at a high figure. Finding they could sell these humbugs at astounding prices, other Japanese nnd Chinese began ma King rako mermaids, which, when thev sold them to the sailors, they alleged came from the far distant South Seas, near the nil Islands, etc Europe and America did not hear of these mermaids, however, until along about 1S22, wnen an English sailor took one to Lon don, where It created an immense sensa tion, and even puzzled tho men of sci ence of that day and time. Finally, it remained for Barnum to exploit the mat ter, which he did somo years after this mermaid reached London. Speaking of the matter in his memoirs and life, he says: "A curiosity, which In an extraordl nary degree served my ever-present ob Ject of extending the notoriety of the American museum (Barnum's fourth ven ture in the amusement lino, located on Broadway, and about the worst collection of humbugs and frauds ever gathered to gether under ono roof), was the so-called 'FIJI Mermaid.' It has been supposed that this mermaid was manufactured by my order, but such Is not, the fact I was known as a successful showman, and strange things of every sort were brought to mo xfrom all quarters for sale or ex hibition. In the Summer of 1842 Mr. Moses Kimball, of the Boston Museum, camo to New York and showed me what purported, to be a mermaid. He had bought it from a sailor, whose father, a sea captain, had purchased It In Calcutta, In 1822, from some Japanese sailors. I may mention here that this identical pre served specimen was exhibited in London in 1S22, as I fully verified in my visit to that city In J 80S, for I found an advertise ment of it in an old file of the London Times, and a friend gave me a copy of the Mirror, published by J. Llmbard. 335 Strand. November 9, 1822, containing u cut of this same creature -and tiro pages of letter press describing it, together with an account of other mermaids said to have been captured in different parts of the world. " The Mirror stated that this speci men was 'the great source of attraction in the British metropolis, and 300 to 400 people every day paid their shilling to see it.' "This -was the curiosity which had fallen into Mr. Kimball's hands. I re quested my naturalist's opinion of the genuineness of the animal, and ho said he could not conceive how it could have been manufactured, for he never saw a monkey with such peculiar teeth, arms, hands, etc., and ho never saw a fish with such peculiar fins; but he did not believe in mermaids. Nevertheless I concluded to hire this curiosity and to modify the general incredulity as to the possibility of tho existence of mermaids (which was evidently not a. very hard task in those days), and to awaken curiosity to see and examine the specimen I Invoked tho po tent power of printer's Ink. "Since Japan has been opened to the outer world It ha3 been discovered that certain 'nrtlsts' In that country manu facture a great variety of fabulous ani mals with an Ingenuity and mechanical perfection well calculated to deceive. No doubt my mermaid was a specimen of this curious manufacture. I used It mainly to advertlyo the regular business of the museum, and this effective, indirect advertising Is the only feature I can com mend in a special show of which, I con fess. I am not proud. NewsDaners throughout the country copied the mer maid notices, for they were novel and caught the attention of readers. Thus was the fame of the museum as well as the mermaid wafted from ono end of the land to the other. I was careful to keep up the excitement, for I knew that every dollar sown in advertising would return In tens, and perhaps hundreds In a future harvest, and after obtaining all the noto riety possible by advertising and exhibit ing the mermaid at the museum. I sent the curiosity throughout the countrv. di recting my agent to everywhere advertise it as 'From Barnum's Great American Museum. New York.' The effect was im mediately felt Money flowed In raDidlv. nnd was readily expended In more adver tising." Such, In brief. 16 the history of on nf the most gigantic fakes ever perpetrated upon the American public, the "FIJI mer maid." Old Washlngtonlans have dis tinct recollection of this hoax, and of how the people flocked to seo what looked like a mummified monkey, with a flsh's tan. iiut the humbug did not last. Th fact that the mermaid business was mni-r profitable than .fan-tan or the opium trado spreaa in unina ana japan until so many Chinks were busy making mermaids that soon there came a glut on the market that causea even the aenso and suDerstitlmm sailors to susipect fraud. Even- sailor returning from the Far East broutrht one of these mummified mermaids home with him, and soon the objects which in 1822 nnd 1842 were the sensation of the hour, and, as Barnum himself states, were a puzzle to men of science, were as com mon as conch shells and cocoanuts along the docks of London and New York. Mermaids became very cheap, and sail ors refused to buy more. In fact, the sailors, angry over having been deceived, were ready almost to mob the first Celes tial who, at Hong Kong, Canton, Shang hai or Nagasaki, came aboard ship with mermaias ' tor saie. The one in the old Hancock tavern was brought to this city from China in 1S70, or perhaps earner, ana for a time be longed to a groceryman of tho name of B. W. Read, who -kept store on Pennsyl vania avenue, near the corner of Eleenth street, and who gave it to Mr. Hancock. It is,, perhaps, today ono of the very few of these objects sun to be found In this country and England, an empty piece of nonsense upon which tho Barnum fortune was largely built Some 25 years ago the Century Maga zine published an article of "Monsters," m which a very entertaining account was given of the old trade In Japanese mer maids. Yet for all this enlightenment Mr. Hancock is every now and then as tonished, not to say amused, at the talk and arguments of people who, apparently Intelligent, stand before this humbug, be lieving it to be real, positive that It Is the dried corpse of an actual mermaid, and ready to back their credulity with money. More than once Mr. Hancock, in order to prevent such people from losing money, has been obliged to forestall and inter rupt wagers and betting, telling the cred ulous that the object In the case is a fake.
