the inhalation of poisonous gases and other

1S8B Professor Poe, of Bridgeport. Conn..
invented what the papers called a "pair of
artificial lungs," intended to be nsed in
ease of apparent death from drowning or
asphyxiation. What has become of Poe'a

pet rabbit and restored it to life eleven dif

BiB mode of restoration was to apply his
patent bellows to the animal's mouth and
force oxygen into the lungs. The reaction
of the apparatus, which was provided with
a powerful suction, drew out the water
(Poe said it would act the same with pot
sonous gases), and the artificial respiration
produced a muscular contraction and ex

Moorish Slavery
It wonld do those good who write pas
sionate articles oa Moorish slavery to see
the well fed, lazy slave of Wazan lounging
in the sun, kiff pipe in month, and scarcely
doing a stroke of work from week's end to
week's end. The most ordinary English
kitchenmaid would accomplish in a counle
of hoars what a Wazan slave does in a
week. All are free to come and go as they
please, but none avail themselves of this
freedom. The reason is not far to seek.
In Wazan they are fed and clothed by the
shereefs, and on holidays and feast daya
receive presents 01 money.
Thus all the necessities of life are found
them without their having to work for
them, which otherwise they wonld be
obliged to do. or is it only the necessi
ties of life that are thus supplied to tbem
free, but they are given each his room to
live in and married at the expense of the
nereersto slave women. Their children.
by law slaves, are not necessarily so. and
are oiten apprenticed to workmen to learn
some trade, or if they wish are free to seek
their fortune in other lands. Blackwood'

IGNORANCE AND PREJUDICE.
rrtjotf That They Are the. Only RnfviMnrt of
Opposition to the Elght-hour Day.
An editorial hi that excellent newspa
per, the Cincinnati Times, gives the fol
lowing illogical reasons for opposing the
6-hour working day idea, it boiug there
mark of a newspaper man to a working-
man: "If you succeed in your object'
(that of reducing the hours of work to
eight), says the editor, "you will raise the
cost of the manufactured article on which
you are employed fully 20 per cent, and
don't you know that if that particular ar
ticle goes up 20 per cent other neccssa-
rios of life will be apt to follow in sympa
thy with it, and will you not find at the
end of the month that it will require $50
instead of f 10 to pay your current ex
penses? The article you are making ad
vanced 20 per cent, the price of living, of
rent, of clothing, of food, etc, would be
likely to advance 20 per cent also, and
80 per cent of X) is $10. How are you to
be benefited if your opportunity to save
$10 a month is destroyed? Don't you see
that the burden of 10 hours pay for 8
hours' work will finally fall on your own
shoulders.'
No, we won't see anything of the kind
and the suggestion is another sample of
the failure of the general run of educated
men to grasp economic truths. The re
sult of a reduction of the hours of work
to eight per day would not raise the cost
of manufactured articles anywhere near
20 per rent nor anywhere near the extent
it would raise wages.
This can be easily shown.
The cost of the labor on manufactured
articles since the advent of improved
mncbitiery is hardly a htheof the cost of
the finished article itself. In the old days
of hand work the greater factor in the
cost of all manufactured goods was the
labor put into them. It is not so today.
Take almost anything boots and shoes,
clothing, machinery, for instance and 20
per cent added to tbe cost of labor would
not raise tie price of the completed am-
clo S per cent.
Take the labor employed to make a
typewriting machine, for example. A
machine that sells for $100 costs about
$18, and of this cost not more than $13 is
for labor. Suppose we add 20 per cent
to tbe cost of this labor, and we have $3,
which would make the price of the ma
chine $103 instead of $130, as by The
limes reasoning. Take tbe cost of shoes.
again. A shop of 300 hands will make
6,000 pairs of shoes per day, or 20 pairs
to each employee. Suppose the average
wages of all tho bands men, women and
boys were $3 per day, and this is a high
estimate. Twenty per cent on this in
creased cost of labor wonld be SO cents
upon each 20 pairs of shoes, or the sum
of "i cents upon each pair.
In the manufacture of clothing we
hate not at hand exact knowledge of the
cost of manufacture, but it is safe to say
that a factory employing 100 hands wiU
easily make i00 suits per day. Estimat
ing their wages at $3 per day a high
average and we have about 70 cents per
sou added to the cost of clothing as a
result of the increase in cost of produc
tion there, and if we add 10 cents to the
cost of the production of the cloth for the
suit as an additional result of the de
creased hours of work we have 80 cents
added to the cost of the suit. But we
will willingly allow an additional cost of
$1 or $3, and then the workingman could
afford to purchase it if one-fifth were
added to his wages.
Again, the fact that under eight hours
workmen would ultimately receive one
fifth more pay will probably puzzle rea
soners like the one just referred to. But
as the value of everything depends upon
the supply of it and the demand for it
there should be no difficulty in realizing
that the increased demand for workers
would raise the value and cost of their
services. Eight bushels of wheat or ap
pies are not worth as much as 10 bushels,
but when there is no surplus of them
when the demand is equal to the supply
people are often glad to pay much more
for eight bushels of either than they pay
for 10 when their is a glut in the market
There is not the slightest moral or ma
terial reason for opposition to a reduc
tion of the hours of work. All objections
to it arise either from ignorance or preju
dice. New York Dispatch.
JAUREOUI'8 LAST SHOT.
tV Bandit Deader Tflta Feigned Dh Id
.Order to Make One More Victim,
During six months the state of Jalisco,
Mexico, mn the Sold of operations for
that unscrupulous bandit, Demerlio
Jauregul, The authorities made many
Miort to put a stop to the robberies aud
murders which Janregui and his band
had been committing, but in spite of
these efforts burglaries, abduetlous and
murders by the score wore committed
by the daring desperado. Things flimlly
t;tme to such a pass that the people of
Jalisco grew desperate, and decided that
a supreme effort must be made to rid the
tonntry of Jauregul. Accordingly a
company of iufantry was put in readi
ness to pursue Jnnregni at a moment's
notice aud capture him and his bund.
The soldiers did not have long to watt,
for they were informed that Janregui
intended to rob the plantation of El Car-
riso. The chief of gendarmerie was
authorized to station his forces in the
vicinity of the plantation and to capture
the bandits, alive if possible. While
Colonel Jurrea and Lieutenant Cvlso
Gomes, of the Seventieth infantry, were
stationed with their soldiers lu the vicin
ity of the plantation they saw Janregui
and his bund of six meu entering the
residence of the owner.
The soldiers at once surrounded tho
house aud demanded the surrender of
Jauregui's partv. This demand was
answered by a murderous volley of bul
lets from tho relating ntlos of the
bandits.. The soldiers at once returned
the tiro. The shooting continued till
nightfall, when the bandits ceased firing.
By this time the soldiers, convinced tlmt
discretion was the better part of valor,
decided to wait till moruing before re-
opeumg the buttle.
The following uiormn.tr, however, the
soldiers, led by Colonel Jurrea, effected
an entrance to the house and there
found six of tho bandits dead. Their
leader, on seeing the soldiers, fled to the
attic and barricaded the dxr. lie was
followed by two soldiers. One of these
was killed instantly by a bullet from I lie
pistol of the bandit chief. The other
quickly fired at the port hole from which
came the bullet which hud killed lib
companion, and his shot was answered
by a groan which showed Hint it had
been effective.
Thinking that the coast was clear the
soldiers made their way lo the attic aud
found the bandit king lying on the floor
behind nn old bed. He was nearly ex
haunted from loss of blood, but ho man
aged to hold a large revolver in each
hand ami at once opened hre.
Suddenly he fell back apparently nn
conscious. A soldier went forward and
bent over the old bandit to see if there
were any traces or life, when, with a
mighty effort, Juurcgui raised himself to
sitting posture, shot the soldier through
the heart and then died.
In this battle four soldiers were killed
outright mid eleven were wounded, some
of them mortally.
Jouregni 8 baud was one of the worst
that ever visited the state of Jalisco.
One of the outlaw's favorite schemes was
to surround the house of a wealthy
planter in the middle of the night and
demand large suras of money, valuable
horses, and in fact any article that might
be of value to the bandits. If these de
mands were refused the bandits would
sometimes murder the planter, and at
otner times tuey would make him a
prisoner and hold him till an exhorbitant
ransom was paid. Cor. Cleveland World.

State Labor Commissioner Lewis of
Ohio has made a special investigation of
women's work and wages in the principal
cities of the state. It appears that Colum
bus makes a better showing than any of
the other cities, and this is attributed
chiefly to the fact that the sweating sys
tem aoes not exist there. It is shown that
women who work by the piece make bet
ter wages than those who are employed
Dy the day or week.
Of the 622 women working by the piece
in Columbus it is shown that 57, or 9 per
cent, earn from $1 to 3 per weekj 195, or
81 per cent, earn 13 to 5; 210. or 34 per

earn f 7 to $10.. Piecework is done chiefiy
in cigar, coffee and spice, knit goods, pa

Business was good and I put on tbe ring.
for it was a beauty. A few daya after
ward l lost a valuable charm from my
watcn cnaiiL Though l offered a re
ward and advertised diligently 1 never
recovered it. About three days later 1
was robbed of my pocketbook contain
ing a fine diamond, considerable money
and important papers. I began to sus
pect the ring was the cause of my ill
tuck, but 1 couldn t make up my mind
to dispose of it
"A week after I boarded a train going
to uoinmDus, out changed my inten
tions and got off, taking another one.
We were hardly ont of town before the
train rolled over an embankment, and 1
was pretty badly hurt. Then I was con
vinced that the opal was responsible for
my bad streak, and I put it in my trunk.
I have had no accidents since, and this
is the reason why I won't wear an opal
again. The jeweler who sold me the
stone wouldn t put on the ring for 1500.
and he now bas it np for sale in his show

Row Shells Are Clasnlded.
Shells, as we popularly call them, are
grouped by naturalists under the head
of mollusks, and in the scale of life they
represent the sixth great branch of the
animal kingdom, following the worms.
though some naturalists classify them
differently. The branch is divided into
classes. First we have the shells witb
iwo vaives, as tne oyster, which is a I
Lamellibranch, a long word referring to
me foius in toe animal.
Some of these have siphons and some
have not. Then we come to the single
shelled mollusks, or easterorxids. so
