Bend for General Cata- Wlll Be Held Its April Many Cities Have Indorsed the Scheme Members of Coe greea Are la Favor of the Idea The Plan Proposed Washington the Place. An interesting meeting was held re cently in Washington of the committee appointed lately to co-operate with iim- ilar committees in other cities in fur therance of the plan for a permanent treaty of arbitration between Great Brit ain and the United States. Tins plan, inaugurated by members of the New York chamber of commerce, bas met with much favor. Committees have been organized in Chicago and New York, and it is proposed to take like action in Boston and Philadelphia and elsewhere as soon as possible. Eventually it is hoped the system of ar bitration proposed may be extended to all the civilized nations, as well as Great Britain. There Was an interesting general dis cussion of the mode of procedure and the scope of the plan of arbitration, in which men of the wide experience in diplomatic affairs of Mr. J. W. Foster and Mr. John A. Kassou were able to make many valuable suggestions. It is proposed to have a conference in Washington in April, at which delegates bom each of the states and territories, independent of party or creed, will be present. Dr. Chamberlin of New York bas been in consultation with members of congress, with a view of ascertaining the most available men for delegates in each section. He spoke of having re ceived very hearty encouragement from members of congress whom he had met. The arrangements will be in charge of executive committees of five from each local committee, and at the conference the whole course of action will be set tled upon. The meeting was most satisfactory in showing that the co-operative movement for general arbitration will receive a very hearty and influential backing in the city of Washington. In the course of the meeting Dr. Chamberlin gave an intelligent expos! tion of the plan and progress of the movement. He said in this connection The spontaneous, independent move ments in Chicago, Philadelphia, Balti more, New York and other places in the interests of a permanent provision for some wise methods of arbitration between the United States and Great Britain have now become one euthusi astio movement in favor of a national conference. The purpose of the confer ence is both patriotic and philanthropic. It is clearly understood that there are questions, such as those of national sot ereiautv and the integrity ol the na tional domain, which no state will con sent to arbitrate, but for the great class of disagreements which are debatable, and which the nsual methods of diplo macy fail to adjust, there well may be a resort to an arbitrating tribunal in stead of the waste and bitterness of war. It would appear, moreover, that noble step in the advance of civilization would be taken, should there be be tween the two great nations which are akin in language, jurisprudence, legal methods and essential love of right a treaty of arbitration, designating the class of issues to be referred and deter mining certain methods of procedure in constituting and convening the tnbu nal, as well as certain essentia rules gov erning the presentation of evidence. There would thus be a presumption and practical facility favorable to arbi tration such as do not now exist and have not heretofore existed. The whole effect would certainly be on the side of peace with honor and justice with good will. It is not too much to say that such treaty or convention between this coun try and Great Britain would tend to ward the adoption of international ar bitration throughout the civilized world Washington Star.

It is meant to do away with the grewsotne association of scenes of burial as far as possible. The apparatus consists of a wooden frame about six Inches square, which fits exactly on the head of the grave. Inside this framework is an ingenious piece of mechanism with an arm mi nient of cogs and pulleys which are worked by hydraulic power. The uin- chlue is operated by means of a liy driullc cylinder, filled with chemically pure glycerine, a non-freezing com pound, and requires no refilling for a number of years. All the active parts are within the frame, and are made either of steel or of bronze. This iu sures lightness and durability. At a burial the framework is placed by the edge of the grave. The casket la placed In the waterproof hempen straps, which run transversely across the framework. These straps will near a weight of 2,000 pounds, so that no accident from breakage can possibly occur. At a given signal the operator places his foot on a treadle, as shown in the Illustration, and the coffin is low ered Into the grave, without jar or stoppage. The speed can be regulated at will, and while its descent can be made in twenty-five seconds, it may be regu lated so as to take a minute or more. When the coffin has settled at the bot tom, a pull at the cords attached to the trap hooks releases them, and the straps are worked back on their rollers by means of a lever. During all this time the frame remains closed. No machinery is seen in operation. The frame Is removed after the grave hits been closed. NOVEL HEADACHE CURE.

The latest "cure" suggested for the relief of headache is a liair cut. A cer tain physician in Louden has met with great success lately in his treatment of persistent cases of "nervous" headaches, and he has finally disclosed the secret. In each case, be says, after the patient bad laid bare a long tale of woe of sleepless nights and miserable days he prescribed, briefly, a simple hair cut. It is not necessary that the hair should be oropped off short, after the fashion of convicts. The curative property of the treatment is based on the fact that the tube which is contained in each single hair is sever ed in the process, and the brain "bleeds," as the barbers say, thereby opening a safety valve for the congested cranium. A commentator in tne ijonaou society press, in . referring to this cure, says: "Try the cure when next attacked by headache, and if the result be not satis factory rest assured that it is not the fault of tire prescription, but that the head is so wooden that it 'wooden V act.

There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis ease, but simply to a constipated condi tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt ly removes. That is why it is the ontyr remedy with millions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health.

Contracts were drawn up at Chicago recently by means of which it is prom ised that packers and shippers of perish able food products will in future get along without ice. Dr. A. T. Perkins, now a resident ol Chicago, has patented a process of keep ing meats, fruits and perishable prod ucts during transportation by the nse of sterilized air. His patents extend to the antipedes. The contract was between him and J. M. Smart of Melbourne, manager of the Australian Meat Trans portation corporation, limited, for the nse of the process in the seven colonies of Australia. A corporation is also about to be formed, with headquarters in Chicago, to control the process over the railroad lines of this continent and the steam ship lines running from the ports of North and South America.

Perhaps the result of the Venezuela bouudary commission's work will be the solving of one of the most remark able geological enigmas iu the world and the exploration of what is regarded as a nuiaue natural wonderland. This remarkable region is a number of ele Vrtted and isolated areas of laud, situ ated ou what the British call British Guiana's southwestern boundary, which is in the disputed territory. It is on the British side of the Schomburgk line, A British Guiana newspaper describes this region, as far as it is known, and expresses the hope that the final settle ment of the boundary controversy will leave it well within British bounds. Should there be another result, bow- ever, the newspaper says, tne region should be made an international park, something on the plan of the Yellow stone park reservation. The region is called by the Indians "Roraima," but the several isolated areas are known by distinctive names. Each consists uf what might be called an isolated mountain, but is really a tablelund, comprising an area of 100 or more square miles, elevated several thousand feet above the surrounding country. The rocky sides of the moun tains are as perpendicular as the Hud son river Palisades and entirely bare of vegetation and have defied all attempts to scale them. The level summits are coveted with trees and other vegetation, and down the rocky sides fall a large number of cascades of considerable size, indicating the certain existence of riv ers and streams on the mysterious sum mits, and probably of lakes that feed the rivers. The summits have been ob served with telescopes, and are known to be as full of plaut life as the tropic al plains below, but beyond this nothing is known. Because so little is known of the con dition of these tablelands occasion is given for all manner of speculation as to what exists there. That the vegeta tion is quite different from that ou the plains below the telescope shows, and that it should be so is quite natural, as the tablelauds are 2,000 or more feet higher than the plains. While the cli mate of the plains is tropical, that of the tablelands must be temperate, not ouly because of their elevation, but also because of the free play the winds bave about them. Of the geology of the region this ex planation is given : This part of South America rose slowly from the sea, throngb successive and remote ages. The Roraima mountaius were formed pre cisely as was the rest of the laud, and are not the result of volcanic action. Hence they must have been above the ocean long before the surrounding plains appeared. They stood 2,000 feet above the sea level when the neighbor ing mountain tups were but islands in the ocean. In the course of a period, difficult to appreciate, the adjacent val leys and plaius appeared above the wa ter and became covered with vegetation and animal life. But the isolated pla teaus of Roraima had a tremendous start of the plains below. Here comes the al leged ground for the speculation that perhaps ou these mysterious summits there exist flora and fauna unlike any found elsewhere, forms of life that long since disappeared from other parts of the world, but remained the same on these summits because unaffeoted by the influences of communication with the outer world. All sorts of wild guesses have been hazarded regarding the exist' ence of strange reptiles ilud animals among the streams and forests of Ro raima. The cascades falling from the sum mits are amoug the highest in the world. One is 2,000 feet high, and is broad enotuth to be visible 80 miles away. It falls sheer, without a break. The mountains from which these cas cades fall form the dividing watersheds of the Amazon, the Orinoco and the Essequibo, the three great rivers of South America, and the waters of the cascades flow some to one and some to another of these rivers. It is argued that to supply these waterfalls there must be a considerable body of water on the mountain plateaus, and it is nat ural to conclude that where there are large bodies of water there are fish and reptiles. The resulting conclusion that, because these fish and reptiles must have been isolated on the mountain tops for ages they are likely to be dif ferent from any known speoies, is re garded as quite natural. The mountain plateaus form practically little countries by themselves like islands, but more isolated because the ocean of air that surrounds them does not afford the fa cilities for communication with other islands that the waters of the ocean do. One of these plateaus, known as Ku kenham, which is better situated for ob servation than any of the others, is esti mated to bave an area of 200 square miles or more. The smallest, which bears the name oommon to the group, Roraima, is estimated to contain 80 to 140 square miles. The story of this mysterious region is not new, at least in British Guiana. It is many years since any scientific men were in the region, but chance travelers and gold prospectors happen there at odd times, and when they return to Demerara they add their little store of information and mystification to the rest. Schomburgk pointed out the great importance of the region to Great Brit ain, as it is the dividing watershed, but the writer in the British Guiana news paper does not say whether the explor ing botanist bad much to say about the wonders and mysteries of the Roraima region.

A curious phenomenon occurred at Hartford the other night, resulting from a high wind and a slight fall of moist mow on an icy surface. The wind oanght the snow and rolled it up iuto thousands of snowballs. Hundreds of balls were whirled up and sent rolling along, gathering snow a each turn and each leaving its marked trail behind. The wide slope of land surrounding Trinity college was one field of rolling snowballs. Dr. Samuel Hart thus de scribes the phenomenon : "The rotary wind flaw catches the enow and rolls it up like a muff in cy lindrical form. Most that I saw were about eight inches wide and eight inches In diameter, hollowed at the two ends. Tbey are iu effect isosceles triangles of snow rolled up on the vertex. " The same phenomenon occurred about 13 years ago. Some of the wind made snowballs were as large as half barrels. ALL CHICAGO KNOWS HIM. . . . kb BaatnraH ta W, W.

Paper hangings, for nse on walls, were introduced into Europe from the east In 1678. A correspondent writes that about six years ago he saw an item in a newspa per stating that a German physioian was going to die, and he wished to make known the discovery he had made in re lation to the treatment of a mad dog bite. The prescription he never knew to fail, and he had tried it many times with men, cattle and horses. It is this : Simply wash the wouud as soon as pos sible in a little warm vinegar and wa ter, and put a few drops of muriatic acid into the wound. This will neutral ize the poison and prevent the disease whioh usually proves t fatal- Chicago was visited by a most singu lar meteorological phenomenon a few nights since. Block snow, yellow snow and brown snow fell in blinding clouds over the entire city, and reports from suburban towns brought the news that the varicolored storm was not an eiclu sive Chicago production. The chief of the weather bureau at Washington says: "The black snow that bos lately fallen in Chicago and the northwest is similar to the great fall of Juunary, 189S, the uature of which was tburougbly invest! gated by the weather bureuu at that time. Notwithstanding the theoretical suggestion that the black deposit ou lust January might have come from beyond the earth and might be uieteono or go- luetic, or might even be the volcanic dust from Alaska or Japan, careful in vestigation showed that it was due to none of these causes. "On the contrary, niioroscopio exami nation proved that the black depuuit contained ubout 4 per cent uf the most delicate organio structures (such aa dia toms and spores) and about 00 per oent of the finest possible inoraguio matter, such as makes up the ordinary fine silt and clay soils. All this fine material is easily caught up by the dry winds when ever they exceed 20 miles per hour and is carried to great distances before it settles ou the grouud. It is easily brought dowu iu large quantities by snow or ruin, but is ouly perceived by the ordinary observer whore there is a clean surface of snow for it to fall upon. Large portions of country from Nebraska southward to the gulf are covered by this flue soil, whose depth sometimes is 100 feet. A gule of wind has been known to carry away six iuohes of the surface soil from a freshly cultivated field and spread it over the laud 100 miles away. The blackness is due to the fineness of the silt and not to any mag netio iron." New York Sun. Dark snow fell in many localities in Indiana recently. It varied in color from brown to jet black. A remarkable atmospberio phenome non occurred early the other morning over the ocean near Cape May. The frosty air there was filled for some 20 feet deep with ice crystals, the frozen evaporation of the warmer water of the tea. All the fleecy, flaky characteristics of drifting snow were present. On this bank Ihe shipping of the offing seemed to. glide in and out of the bay like fig ures ou a mimio stage. ,The sun had ascended some SO degrees above the horizon before the novel sight disappeared by the melting of this at tenuuted snow bank. Seamen note such occurrences in the gulf stream, where the warm water of the ocean is evapo rated and frozen near its surface on frosty mornings when the air is still. Philadelphia Ledger. A remarkable phenomenon was wit nessed at Chicago the other night for which the United States signal sorvice can offer no solution or reason. It was a dust storm which prevailed until far in the night in the midst of a snow storm. Everything touched was be smeared with a dark brown substance, which was clearly dirt of some sort, but just what no one was able to say. This dust storm began about 20 min utes to 7 o'clock and was at first rather violent, the wind being strong, but after an hour or so subsided somewhat. Re ports from southern Wincousin, eastern Iowa and western Indiana show that the storm also prevailed thero. In some of the places where the storm prevailed the browu dust oovered the enow to the depth of an eighth of an inch. New York Herald. The last few days, whenever snow bas fallen in Salt Lake City, a white sedi ment has been left wherever the snow touched. There has been much specula. tion as to the actual cause ; the looal scientists have been and are now divided upon that point. There are those who insist that the sediment was taken np from the bosom of Great Salt Lake. There are others who believe the deposit is sulphate of soda, which is thrown up on the shores of Great Salt Lake during the winter by the action of the cold weather on the briny waters. Be that as as it may, the bouses facing north, the street car windows and every piece of glass exposed has become incrustud. Pe destrians who happened to be out in the storm did not notice anything out of the way until their clothing dried, when it was discerned that the apparel was lib' erally sprinkled with what appeared to be salt. The deposit is of a saline nature, That was discovered by the application of the tongue. It is a phenomenon that frequently oo curs in Salt Lake City, and especially during the winter season, but a good deal of work was necessary to remove the stains left on the windows. There has not been a snowstorm within the last ten days when the deposit of the sediment has not occurred. The savants are still guessing. Chicago Chronicle. in Chicano, May 26. Mr. W. W.

In India, for the mass of the people, the purchase of ornaments is almost the one form of indulgence to which a lnuu who has made a little money treats him self. Ordinarily the man who has saved a few rupees does not change the nature of his food or the style of his clothing, nor does he invest in articles of furni ture. What he does if he is of a cautious and saving nature is to put his rupees in a hiding place, but if lie is inclined for show he indulges his fancy by put ting gold or silver ornaments ou the per son i of his wife and children. These ornaments are the very last things to be parted with on a reverse of fortune, and eveu in the lowest social depths they are not put on the market nntil the last piece of coined money hus vanished and no household utensils of brass or copper are left with which to obtain a coin. m Scrofula Miss Dolls Stevens, Of Boston, Mass, i writmi 1 have always suffered from 3 hereditary Hcrnfula, tor which I tried vfti'liiita mniAilliui mitt mainw mliahltt piiysiomns, nut noiio reneveu me.
