GUNS OF THE PURITANS,
Not the BroQderbussc.s Csually Represent
ed Jvr Artists.
One of the most remarkable facts
to the investigator of our American
antiquities is the almost total igno
rance which prevails among even
those who aro otherwise well in
formed as to the weapons, more es
pecially the firearms, with which
our Puritan ancestors fought their
wars with the Indians. One of the
notions which seems firmly estab
lished is that the early settlers gen
erally used the hell muzzle blunder-;
bttss. Almost every artist who
draws a Thanksgiving or Christmas
'?" picture of a Puritan going to meet
ing gives him a gun with a muzzle
like the end of a trumpet. '"Now, the
fact is that the bell mouth firearm
was never a military arm among
English speaking people at all, nor
was such a weapon ever common
either in this country or in England
until about the middle of the last
century, when it came into use for
the defense of houses against' bur
glars, for stagecoach guards and
similar purposes. The blunderbusses
which are common .enough in the
curiosity shops are almost without
exception later than 1750, and many
of them date only from the early
part of this century.
A large, bell mouthed gun was in
use somewhat earlier on hoard of
naval and other armed ships, but
this was a heavy piece mounted on
a swivel and used very much as the
howitzer was later.
Then as to the locks. Even some
of our most distinguished writers
seem to he completely at sea on this
point. One New England writer,
whom I will not name for fear of
seeming disrespectful to a man de
serving of honor, wrote some time
ago in a magazine article that some
soldier in King Philip's war might
have invented the flintlock by find
ing that an Indian flint arrowhead
would make fire if inserted into the
cock of his matchlock. Now, the
soldier of 1675 was given a match
lock, not because the military au
thorities; were ignorant of guns
which dould make their own fire
(wheel locks and snaphaunces were
in common use); but because the
matchlock was considered better for
ordinary use. More than this, if he
had thought of it, he* would have
known that his matchlock would
not make fire with a flint. The flint
lock with which our war of :inde
pendence was fought requirss a
powerful blow to. make the flint
strike fire from the steel. This the
matchlock did not have, nor did the
pan cover open in such a way as to
' make this possible.
At the time of King Philip's war
and for a long time afterward the
ordinary firesrm for infantry was
the matchlock musket These are
plenty in European collections, but
very rare in America. I have never
seen one in any collection in this
country. At the sam? time the snap
haunce, a primitive form of the
flintlock, was quite extensively used
by hunters, and probably by the In
dians, who would naturally object
to the match, which if kept lighted
would bptray its presence, especial
ly at night. Wheel locks were prob
ably used to 'some -extent by the
earliest settlers, but1 it was always
an excep tional arm and too costly to
be generally used. By the time of
King Philip's war it was rather old
fashioned and not likely to have fig
ured much. In Springfield is a fine
bronze statue of one of the early
settlers, ' who is represented with a
wheel lock blunderbuss. This is, of
course, possible?anything is possi
ble. But if any wheel lock blunder
buss can be found in any collection
of Europe or this country I would
like to s?e it.?Boston Transcript.
DOES GOLD-GROW?
Some Veteran Miners Who Pretend to
l?clicve That It Iiocs.
They were all weather beaten trail
blazers who had led the march of
* civilization into the mountains, and j
their conversation wandered from !
the departed glories of other days j
to the latest discoveries in science.
John Heleh?n had just finished ;
reading from a mining journal about
Professor Emmons'discovery of the j
method of transmuting silver into
gold.
"I think Emmons is a humbug," ;
said old Judge Longly, a California, '
argonaut. "The old-alchemists, you
know, tried that, but they might as
well have tried to make an apple
seed. Nature holds the germ, and all
the scientists who imitate her can
do is to quicken its growth.*'
. "I've hoard tel^of gold growing," j
remarked Will Bobbins.
*"So have I," said the judge, "hut
?. you have never seen it grow, have
you? I don't believe all the yarns
these experts spin anyhow."'
"Boys," spoke up John Treanor,
"perhaps I have got so! ?e queer old
notions stowed away under this dig*
gin hat of mine, but for 30 ye
man and boy, I've been a prosp ;ct
or, and I've been doia some think
in. And I tell you ??w that 1 be
lieve gold docs grow. Twenty years
ago I struck the Locust and sank a
shaft. It was .silver ui\\ and after^l
cuggin for awhile' 1 gave it up in dis- j
gus.t. Them I wau'T-M*--! over in the: '

diggin and have been diggin in that,
holt1 ever since. It seemed to ma
that in the places where the water
struck it it grew richer. I run in
three tunnels at the bottom, but
found the gold was not yet ripe, so
I just closed up the tunnels and let
thern rest for a few years."
"Blame me if I don't think Hank
Stebbins docs the same thing," said
Jack Flice. "Hank lives up in Soap
gulch and has a claim he calls the
Belcher. He discovered it 30 years
ago, when Wash Stapleton was mak
ing bullets in his -load mine to kill
Indians with. It is in a funny for
mation for that part of the country.
It is in a reef of sand lying between
the lime formation that borders on
the Melrose valley and the stratified
gneiss formation that runs from tha t
point to tbe base of Red mountain.
Thirty years ago Hank discovered
that there were globules of silver in
the sand and located, but there was
not enough mineral to pay, and he
abandoned it. Ten years ago he
went back to the old mine and began
turning over the sand. He began to
find chunks of gold instead of sil ?
ver. He has a good thing of it now.
He mines it like the Mexicans used
to mine it year's ago. He cuts stairs
in the sand and takes the sand up
in ft candle box and sorts it over.
Now all he has got to do when he
wants to, make a stake is to go down
to the s?nd pile and wiggle a. crow
bar around for a few minutes; when
up comes a piece of shining gold.
Several capitalists have attempted:
to get hold of the mine, and one of
Heinze's agents made him a good
offer for i?, but Hank won't sell, for
he is sure ho has a fortune if the
gold keeps on growing. "?Butter In

Witchcraft In the Nineteenth Century.
Most people believe that witch
craft among civilized people ended
when the "Salem witch mania" ran
its course and died out in the year
1692. It did, as far as America is
concerned, except among savages,
but in other countries the belief ?d
the superstition did not die until a
much later date,'even if it can be
truly said to be dead now. In France,
an old beggar was tortured to death
as late as lb07 on the charge of be
ing one who "communed with evil
spirits," and in Spain a witch was
burned in 1808. In 18j0 in Trance a
man and his wife tortured a suspect
ed witch- to death, and nothing at
all was dono with them by the crim
inal courts on account of the linger
ing belief in sorcery. Four years
later, a witch was drowned in Eng
land, and in 1s60 one was burned in
Mexico. Inj 1874, 1s79, 18s0 and
again in 1889 witches were publicly
burned in Russia, and even as late
as 1s90 regular judicial trials of
witches were had in Prussia, Poland
and Austria-Hungary. ? St. Loiiis

When People Catch Cold.
The "cold spots," Meaning thera
by the surface areae peculiarly sus
ceptible to cold, aro principally the
nape of the neck and the lower part
of the back of the head, the front of
the abdomen and the shins. The
acute discomfort and the sense of
impending^ disaster which result
from the steady play of a current of
cold air upon the neck from behind
are well' known. The necessity of
keeping the abdomen warmly clad
is also generally* recognized, though
perhaps not as generally carried
into practice. .Curiously enough,
few people arc conscious of the dan
ger they run by exposing the usual
ly inadequately protected shins to
currents of cold air. This is the
usual way in which colds are caught
on omnibuses. When driving, one
takes care to cover the legs with a
rug or waterproof, but on the more j
democratic conveyance ruga are not
often available, and the reckless !
passenger by and by awakens to the
fact thatthefiron has entered into!
his soul?in other words, that he
has "eaught cold." People who
woar stockings, such as highland
ers, golfers mol cyclists, invariably j
take the precaution of turning the
thick woolen material down over
the shiii>-r,the bettor to protect thein ?
against loss of heat, though inci- j
dentally the artificial embellishment
of the calves may not be altogether
foreign to the maneuver. This is
an instance of how all things work
together for good. It does not, of
course, follow because certain areas !
are peculiarly susceptible to cold
that a chill may not be conveyed to
tho nervous system from other
points. Prolonged sitting on a
Stone, or even on the damp grass, is
well known to lie a fertile sonic;' of
disease, and wer. cold feet are also,
with reason, credited with paving
the way to an?barly grave.?London

"It is the easiest thing in the
world to fool a woman, " she said.
'Women do not reason. They aro
?nuch moro suspicious than men,
but when once their confidence has.
been gained you can make them be
lieve the moon is made of green
cheese.
"The whole problem is in gaining
the visitor's confidence. If I can
m ake her believe in me, she is gone.
Usually it is not a very difficult job
to do that. Probably one-half of
the women who call to consult me
are actuated by no other motive
than idle curiosity. Such wonien
never come back the second time;
sb I know that I can get only one
fee from them anyway. I exact
payment in advance, and after that
it doesn't make very much differ
ence to me what I tell theni.
"But occasionally a woman comes
in who has money and means busi
ness. If I please her, she will como
again and again, making my pock
etbook heavier each time. That is
the woman I am after, of course,
and my first work is to impress her
with my honesty. I do not know
her name, her -r?sidence or her his
tory. If I did, it would be clear sail
ing right from the start.
"I ask for the usual fee and go
into a 'trance. ' Very shortly I awake
with a start. am very sorry,' I
remark, 'but the electrical and mag
netic conditions today aro very bad.
The atmosphere seems to be sur
charged with electricity, and it
greatly interferes with my work.
However, I will try again in a few
minutes.' After a short interval
of conversation I again go into a
trance. .This also proves ineffective,
and I hand the caller's money back,
saying that I am very sorry that
she came at such an inopportune
time and assuring her that the con
ditions do not interfere with my sit
tings offener than once or twice a
year. .Will she call again tomorrow?
She usually is impressed by my
sincerity and promises to come back.
. "When she leaves, a egro serv
ant, whom I have warned by an
electric buzzer, follows her wher
ever she may go. When he returns,
he has the woman's residence num
ber. From this it is an easy matter
to identify her, and a few inquiries
in the neighborhood?at the nearest
grocery, perhaps?are sufficient to
give me all the informa Lion I need.
Very often as soon ?s I find out who
my visitor is I know something
about her which will ? mea clew
to what she wants to know.
"When she calls again, I go into
a trance, and this time the 'cond?- .
tions' are all right. I surprise her ;
inexpressibly by describing the ap
pearance of her own sideuce, giv- '
ing the street and number and final- j
ly spell out ber own name. Nine
times out of ten this is all that is
required. The caller is convinced
that 1 have learned her name and j
residence by occult power, and j
therefore is ready to believe any- j
thing else I may tell her. It is easy
when you know how. "?Chicago

SHE LIKES DEATH SCENES.
Viola Allen, the Actress, Says They Are
a Fascination to lier.
Miss Viola Allen has probably
died as many times as any other
woman on the stage?that is to say,
of course, a dramatic death.
"There is something fascinating to
mo," she said, "in a death scene. If
the actress has to fall to tho ground
in a death agony,, she must be care
ful that she does not perform the
feat as though she were a clasp knife
folded up. Thou, again, she must
cultivate breathing, so that she may
seem not to bo breathing at all.
Nothing is moro ridiculous than Ilio
spectacle presented by a supposed
corpse whoso chest is heaving vio
lently in consequence of the emo
tion attendant upon falling.
"I remember iu Virginio-?' I war,
stabbed and fell ! ^%V.v. ?ri? to the
ground. The blow made me gasp.
Gradually my limbs became rigid,
and I fell at tho moment the spark
of life was supposed to have left my
body. I used to remain motionless
with my mouth and eyes open. My
authority for such action and subse
quent pose is the strongest. ' I was
the witness of just such a tragedy in
real life. The only pain I expe
rienced in that scene was the en
forced holcing of my breath. The
length of the actual death scene is
about five minutes.
"When I played in Othello' with
Tomaso Salvini, I was always nerv
ous during tho smothering scene,
because tbe Italian tragedian used
to get extremely excited. I would
turn my face sideways and hold a
small space open under the farther
side of the pillow, so that I could
breathe, but even that breathing
hole would frequently get closed un
der Salvini's forceful cnergy.
"Then, when he had found that
ho had killed Desdemona without
cause, in his remorse he would
throw himself heavily lipon the
body. I used to wait for this piece
of business as one would wait for a
locomotive about to project itself
upon tho waistband.
"As Juliet, I have died many
times. Romeo, you know, drinks
the poison and subsequently throws
the vial away as Juliet approaches
him; then, seeing him die, stabs
herself and falls over him. At one
theater the property man, thinking
poison should be represented by
some black liquid, filled tho vial
with ink. As Romeo made merely
a slight motion of drinking the
liquid, he did not notice the nature
oft the fluid. But when he threw
the bottle from him it struck some
where near Juliet, and the ink flew
all over my face and the lovely
white gown I wore. On that occa
sion, yoii may be sure, the life of
Juliet was ended with the least pos
sible delay.
"In 'La Charbonni?re" the heroine
dies a slow death by poison. In
this caso I took special care to find
out the right poison that should be
mentioned in ihe piece as the one
that would cause a slow numbing
of the senses.
. "Death by starvation is by no
means jolly. As Jess in 'Ho?d
man, ' I have had to make believe I
would give my life for a doughnut.
In this play my death occurred
while I was reclining on my side,
well down the stage toward the
footlights. This was quite often an
awkward situation, because of the
different curtains at the various
theaters. Now and then, to avoid
my being struck by the curtain, the
hero would be obliged to draw my
body back, and once, though a man
put out his hand to keep tho curtain
from touching me, the. heavy mass
actually grazed my nose. "?Boston
