at New York.
New York, Dec. 26.?It was inieed
a strange Christmas dinner that
Elenry B. Tannehill ate at a local ho- 1
;el yesterday. He sat at a table at
vhich there were four other chairs,
jut all of them vacant, in front of
jach there was placed a complete
Uhristmas repast which was later 1
:aken away untouched. Tannehill 1
lined with phantom guests, the'
spirits of his sister and her three !i
ihildren, all dead.
Of an adventurous spirit, Tanne-!
lill, resident of this city, has wan-!
lered far and wide and returning!
lere on Monday last from Alaska he .
earned of the death of his sister and j 1
ler children. His explanation of thej
veird dinner is perhaps th$ best, j
He says: "On the day I left my:
sister's house I told her that I would
3e back next Christmas or the one ,
ifter, and that the treat for them 1
vould be the finest that money could 1
3uy. I got out and hustled and :
laved considerable money m rne
Klondike, and when I arirved here
;he other night, I ran over to the
Sast Side and began to look up the
oiks. It did not take me long to
Ind out what I least expected. My
dster went out to a store one day
ind left the children alone; when
the came back they were dead?
)urned. A little later she herself
lied of pneumonia and worry."

Bundle of Infant's Clothes.
New York, Dec. 26.?Mrs. Rebecca
Seigel, of East New York, became
so excited during a fire in her
flat yesterday which broke out while
3he was bathing her six-months-old
infant that she seized the bundle of
baby clothes, thinking that the child
was tucked safely inside, only to find
to her chagrin and horror when she
reached the street that the bundle
was empty.
A man hearing her screams that
the child was in the burning building
rushed in and found the baby
3eated contentedly in the bath tub,
cooing happily and splashing the water
while the flames crackled about
the room. Rescuer and baby were
unscathed.
Hog Meat was Poison.
Union, Dec. 22.?Rev. John G.
Parr, pastor of the Green Street
Methodist church, and who before
?oing into the ministry was for some
twelve years auditor of Union county,
together with five of his children
aarrowly escaped death by poisoning
within the past few days, seemingly
an account of having eaten meat
which was rather spoiled.
Some days ago Mr. Farr received
from his brother, Mr. W. T. Farr, of
kdamsburg, some nice fresh hog
meat. The meat was in fine condi:ion
but on account of the unusually
<P/-.r> +V110 coo eAn r\f thp

rear, it must have spoiled, for after
sating some a day or so ago, Mr.
Parr and practically every member
sf his family were taken very sick
md but for prompt medical attention
might have died, and while Mr. Farr
md his children are now able to be
ip and about, still they had a very
slose call. j

Can Vanquish Hog Cholera.
Columbia, Mo., Dec. 26.?As a result
of perfecting a serum that is aa
antitoxin against hog cholera the
Missouri Agricultural college issued
a statement to-day guaranteeing the
State legislature that with an appro
priation of $45,000 a year it will
save the farmers of Missouri from
$1,000,000 to $5,000,000 annually.
The agricultural college announced
unequivocally that it now is prepared
to vanquish hog cholera.
The serum is drawn from what is
known as a hyperimmunized hog
blood, the flbering being removed so
as to prevent clotting. The serum
is treated with small quantities of
carbolic acid. _
An Example.
Little Willie: "I say, pa, what is
meant by the law of demand and
supply?"
Pa: "Take the coal dealer, for
example, my son. About this time
of the year he demands the money
and we supply it."
