MAY BROOKYN'S SUPERSTITIONS.
The Actress Kept In Her Room What
Seems to Be a 1.1st of Omens.
In Miss Brookyn's room were writings
.which attested her superstition. The
name of a "test medium and psychome
triBt" of this city was on a card which she
kept. In her handwriting was what ap
peared to be a list of omens. It began
with an incomplete account of what the
months had in store for her. This was
as follows:
Feb. Avoid O. S.
June P. I.
Aug. Good.
Nov.
Below this was a statement of what
the letters meant. This was as follows
H Good: deal freely.
E Not so pood in woman as man.
O Very bad.
S Unpleasant news from a distance; sur-
prise.
A Good; male or female.
P Good.
Lt Very good; ma'e or female.
K Good; new friend.
V New friend: good; fair man.
Don't marry in Vl; "Ji good.
68or61. 8Q. 5 S.
B Is very Rood; deal freely.
W Proposition; good for flirtation: nevex
marry.
O Good; male or female.
M Better woman.
T New friend; good.
G Very good.
N Not quite so good; be careful.
She had drawn a rude circle, and there
were dots in it a3 if a pencil point came
down in many places. The supposition
is that the letters were placed inside a
circle, like the numbers on the face of a
"clock, and she then let the pencil held in
her fingers drop wherever chance brought
it. The letter on which it hit signified
the outcome of whatever she might have
been thinking of. In this manner doubt
less she found whether the mouths were
to be good or bad for her.
She had marked February as a month
to avoid and with the letters "O S." Ac
cording to the mystic dictionary, "O"
meant that February was very bad for
her and "S" that she would receive un
pleasant news from a distance. Curi
ously she did get some news from New
York lately, which is presumed to havo
been unpleasant, and February proved
to be the month of her grievous exit
from the world.
A spiritualistic doctor lingered around
the Baldwin theater yesterday until ho
could tell Mr. Preabrey, manager of tho
Palmer company, that he had received
knowledge of the reunion of the souls of
Lovecraft and Miss Brookyn. The spirit
aalistic theory is that when her efforts
to establish communication with her lov
er's spirit failed she felt the necessity of
taking exactly the same terrestrial route
that he had journeyed on. To employ
any other poison than cur bo'.i'j ..ci I . Vi';
serve to keep them parted forever, and
bo she submitted herself to the scorching
liquid. She bought the deadly draft in
Columbus, O., on Nov. 20 and treasured
it until she felt impelled to put the bot
tle to her lips. San Francisco Chronicle.

daily wonder of hi3 neighbors. lie was
born something more than 15 years ago
and has ever since that event kept his
neighbors wondering at his growth.
Each year since he was 10 has seen from
50 to 1C0 pounds added to his weight,
until he is believed now to be the heav
iest youth alive, and should his avoirdu
pois appreciate at the same rapid rate ho
will soon break all the heavyweight rec
ords since Adam. At 13 years of age
he weighed 410 pounds; at 14, 450, and
now at 15 the scales creak at 535 pounds,
and the end is not yet.
Grubb is not merely a mountain of
flesh, but an active and intelligent boy.
He can follow a plow all day without
unusual fatigue and is a bright and in

be given to that already greatly benamed
personage, the empress dowager of
China, in honor of II. L M.'s sixtieth

by edict to be presented to tho imperial

As it is, her majesty has already 7

In George Washington's Arms.
In Dr. Mines' volume of reminis
cences, ' A Tour Around New York,"
the author devotes a paragraph to tho
attractions of Battery park and adds a
pleasing little story of a time before his
own:
I remember a dear old lady who
loved to talk about this park and tell of
the people she had met here and the
scenes she had witnessed, and of these
one man and one morning's adventure
stood oat most prominent.
A little thing in while, fcer nurse had
brought her to the paik to witness a
civic ceremony, and the crowd prevent
ed her from obtaining a good view of
the pageant.
As with a child's impatience Eho tried
to press through the throng a tall and
handsome elderly gentleman, clad in a
suit of black velvet and with a dres3
sword at his side, stooped down to her,
inqnired pleasantly about her trouble
and then lifted her upon bis shoulder
and held her there an til the procession
had passed.
Delighted with what eho saw, the
child thought Jittle about the gentleman
who bad brushed away her trouble, but
thanked him when he released her with
a kiss and set her down upon the ground.
As he moved away the nurse in an awe
struck voice asked the child if she knew
whose arms had held her and then told
her that it was President Washington.
The little eyes watched him oat of sight
and never forgot his stately appearance,
I think dear old Mrs. Atterbnry was
prouder of having been the heroine of
this incident than of all the social hon.
ors that 'afterward fell to her lot.-

A NEW SUN MOTION.
Professor Stevenson Has Completed a Won
derful Invention After Years of Labor.
Professor E. E. Stevenson, a well
known educator and writer of Quincy,
Mass., announces the completion of an
invention on which he has been laboring
for years, which, he says, will revolu
tionize the present methods of obtaining
motive power. Professor Stevenson has
pursued his investigations and experi
ments in Quincy all winter and has at
last brought his idea to a head. Profess
or Stevenson said: "The forces which
bave thus far been utilized by the genius
cf man are the laws of gravitation and
chemical reaction. In the broad field of
research and investigation we find the
possibilities of the future in molecular
attraction, musical vibration and the re
fraction of light.
"To understand the theory on which I
have been laboring you must understand
the corelation of forces or the transmu
tation of energies. We use force to pro
duce light. It is upon the reverse of
this theory that I have .labored, and my
experiments are at last proving satisfac
tory. I have found that the heat of an
ordinary kitchen stove generates energy
sufficient, if controlled, to drive tho ma
chinery of the Pillsbnry mills, and the
flames of a Bunson electric burner would
furnish power to light by electricity 1,000
lights."
In Pro?esor Stevenson's experimental
machine, however, the heat of the sun
alone has leeu used. This machine con
sists of three brass cylinders connected
by means of tubes and valves with a
glas3 reflector behind the central cylin
der. A piston moving laterally connect
ing with a balance wheel gives the mo
tion. The tdiaft on which the balance
wheel hangs passes through the end of
the machine and contains a drive pulley,
which makes the force available. This
machine is operated by the sun, working
with great rapidity. Boston Journal.

A I-nadMl 1- zirui.
For many years a sandy mound on the
II. A. Maize farm, just south of this
city, has been known as the hiding place
of the fox. This winter tho animals have
been unusually numerous anil created
havoc in the henneries. . The losses be
came so great that the farmers held a
meeting and decided to blow up the
mound and rid themselves of the pests.
A large quantity of dynamite was pur
chased, and four largo charges were put
into the ground. For some reason the
fuses failed to discharge the explosive,
, and the stuff is now buried in the mound.
The mound is one of the most productive
spots on the farm, and as the farmer
does not know just where the dynamite
lies he is in a pickle to know what to do,
as he is afraid to dig into the mound for
fear he may strike the stuff and send
himself to kingdom come. The owner
of the farm insists that the dynamite
must be found, as he realizes that the
fact of it being buried on the farm is go
ing to hurt the sale of the farm or for
ever render several acres of his best land
valueless. Wooster (O.) Dispatch.
Hot In Australia.
The weather in Australia during the
antipodean summer has been unusually
hot and opxiressive. In Adelaide during
January the thermometer several times
registered over 100 degrees in the shade,
and one day it climbed to 107 in the
shade and 1C3 in the sun. In Melbourne
the 100 notch has been reached more than
once, and the scorching north winds have
made the atmosphere exceedingly op
pressive. The foregoing figures are from
weather observatory readings, and prob
ably do not represent by several degrees
the temperature of the city streets.

MlUcpeds.
Tho little creature which possesses
the distinction of having more legs than
any other animal is that which belongs
to the family of insects known as mille
peds, or thousand footed. There are
several different species of thesp, but
they all possess the common character
istic ci .:uujjg segnjc.ji.ta tuJ.c;, ct
segment of which is provided with its
own pair of feet. These are set so close
ly along the body as to resemble hairs,
and when they move one after ano'ther
with perfect regularity tho effect is pre
cisely the same on a small scale as'that
of a field of oats undulating under the
influence of the wind. Some species of
millepeds have as many as 350 separate
aud distinct legs. They are all per
fectly harmless, unlike the centipeds,
which frequently have the power of in
flicting poisonous wounds. Brooklyn

Doings of the Week as told by
the "Gazette's" Special
Correspondent.
Portland, July 9, lSgt.
The effects of the struggle between
the American Railway Union and the
railroads are becoming quite serious i
to business men both in this city and
along the lines. It has, also, caused a ;
great loss to farmers possessing per- j
isliable produce, such as eggs, fruit, ,
etc., who have been cut off front mar-1
ket. In this respect Oregon farmers j
have been better off than those in
some oilier states. I here is, ot
course, little sympathy fur railroads as
such, and if tliis fight was caused by
iiny abuse of employes by the railroad
companies, they would receive little
support from business men and the
people generally. But such is not the
case. This is simply an effort by the
American Railway Union, a new or
aiiizatitn, to show its power and
ileinonstiate that it is stronger and j
cim accomplish more than any of the
old railroad organizations. It is an !
effort to establish tlie dominion of or
ganized employes over their employees
business, to enthrone organized labor
asiliciat'ir over the business and in
dustry of tli country. Its success
would mean that business men and
produ e s may be ruined at any tiu.e
ly tiie arbitrary acts of these organi
zaions and that the entire business of
the country and the ti asportation ;f
cops may be stopped, doing incaleti
lable dainagf, by the order of an ir
responsible man not having a i!u'I..r
invested in either a business enterprise
or a far. n. It is because the railroads
a:e fi liiinj this dangerous and revo
; bitionary undertaking that they are
j supported in this conflict, and not bc
icuise there is any popular sympathy
j with railroad corporations as such.
! Indeed, popular prejudice g.iinst
rai!-o;id comp inics somewhat blinds i
the neciple to the exact naiure and ex- j
I . t
' t: c::;' danger of the present le.vulu
tionary effort to establish the boycott
and make organized labor the di ;.wr
; of tlfi country. Tlie country is i:i
j sympathy with labor, for most of us
: are laborers, but it wants no dictator,
j It may safely be said of the Oregon
Nitional Guard, that, whatever the
cause or whoever might be concerned,
ic could be relied upon to do its full
: duty in suppressing a riot or in aiding
the civil authorities to enforce the
law. Tlie personnel of the men is
, above the average of - state troops, and j
j they are not infected with the revolu
( tionaiy and anarchistic ideas that have
nude such headway elsewhere and
have always Iieen so prevalent in
California. This applies to city and
country companies alike, though the
former, having better advantages, are
more thoroughly trained and disci
plined. The people of Poitl md de
voutly hope they will never have to
call upon the national guard for ser
vice, but enjoy a sense of security in
knowing that the ora-mization is ready
aud reliable for immediate duty.
