"a madstone is the most wonderful
cure for the bite of a mad dog or a
snake that the world has ever known.
Unfortunately there have been only two
of them ever found. One of these was
owned by Mrs. King, of Richmond, Va.,
and was famous all through the state
for fifty years before the war. The
number of people who had been bitten
by mad dogs, rattlesnakes and mocassins,
and whose lives that stone had
saved, mounts up into hundreds."
""\V4iere is the stone now?" asked the
reportei of the man who made the statement.
"It was sold at auction after the
death of Mrs. King, about fifteen years
ago, ana Dougnt oy a stranger who pain
$000 for it. No one knew who he whs
or where he went after the sale. lie
and the stone simply disappeared.
44I was, and probably still am, the
owner of the other madstone. It was
found about twenty years ago in an Indian
mound in Clarksville, Mecklenburg
county, Va., by a Mr. Morse. He gave
it to me after the war, and it has been
in my possession since then. When
this epidemic of rabies broke out in
New Jersey I looked for it, but it too
had disappeared. During the last week
I have turned my house upside down,
but it can't be found. It is, of course,
somewhere in the house, but just where
it will trouble me to learn. Some years
ago I lent it to a friend in Philadelphia,
lie submitted it to several eminent, physicians
in Philadelphia for examination.
They tested it, and after curing several
mad dotr and snake bites with it, they
agreed that it was the most wonderful
thins thev had ever seen."
"How is (he stone applied?"
"Tt is a piece of perfectly black porous
stone, so light that it will float on
water, and about the size of my little
finger. It has puzzled geologists wonderfully,
for tlicy cannot tell what kind
of stone it is, geologically speaking.
When a person is bitten by a mad dog
the stone is pressed against the wound.
In half a minute it will begin to turn
green, and will adhere as tight'ly to the
ncsn as n it was a piece ol sticking
plaster. As it absorbs Ihc poison it
grows more green, until it is tlic color
of an oak leaf. Tlicn it falls off, and
after being washed in tepid water and
cleansed of the green fluid, can be used
again and again until it refuses to absorb
any more poison.
"I have seen it used on a negro's arm
that had been bitten by a mocassin
snake, which is about as venomous as a
rattlesnake. Nearly half an hour had
elapsed between the time he was bitten
and the application of the madstone,
' and his hand, arm and shoulder were
frightfully swollen. In another half an
hour he would have been dead. Tiie
madstone took hold like a leech and
filled itself seven times with the greenish
fluid I have spoken of. While this
process of absorption was going 011 you
could see the swelling decrease minute
by minute until, when the madstone
would absorb no more and ictnained
perfectly black when applied, the man's
arm was its natural size once again.
?? A mo/lcf 10 a mncf
thing,"concluded Mr. Fitzwilson. "I've
heard of the Indians in the mountains
of North Carolina having ofle some
years ago. but no white man ever saw
it. I shall make every effort to learn
where mine is, and if I can find it I shall
send it directly to Newark, where its
marvellous powers can be demonstrated
to the satisfaction of every one."
graining Enormous Marshes.
Few people are probably aware of the
great engineering uundcrtakings in
which Russia has been engaged for years
of draining the Piusk marshes. These
are so extensive as to secure special
designation on the ordinary map of Europe,
being, we believe, the only case of
the kind; and, in point of area, are
much larger than Ireland. Situated on
the Russo-Polish confines, they have
become famous in Russian history as a
refuge for all manners of romantic characters,
and have remained an irreclaimable
wilderness in the midst of a prosperouscorn-growing
region up to within
the last few years. In 1870 the Russian
government first took in hand seriously
the abolition of this wild expanse, which,
vwiug to ucing perpetually more or less
submerged and covered with a jungle
growth ot forest, pre verted not only
communication between Russian districts
on either side, but also between
Russia aud Austro-Germany. Consequently
a large staff of engineering ofti,
cers and several thousand troops were
drafted into the region, and these have
been engaged upon the undertaking
since. Up to the present time about
four million acres have been reclaimed,
thanks to the construction of several
thousand nii'es of ditches and of canals,
so broad as to be navigable for barges of
several hundred tons burden. Just now
the engineers are drawing up the program
for next year, which comprises the
drainage erf 3o0,000 acres by means of the
construction of 120 miles of ditches and
canals. Of the 4,000,000 acres already
reclaimed, 000,000 acres consisted of
sheer bog, which have been converted
into good meadow land; 900,000 acres
of "forest tangle,'1 which have been
prepared for timber purposes by cutting
down all the underwood and thinninp
the trees: 500.000 acres of i?on<l fnn.<t
land?forest oasis in the miilst of the
marshes ? hitherto inaccessible, but
which have been connected more or less
with navigable canals, and thereby with
the distant markets; and, finally, 2,000.000
acros have been thrown open to cultivation,
although only 120,000 acres
have been actually occupied up to now,
Besides making the canals and ditches,
the engineers have built 170 bridges
bored lo2 wells from 40 feet to 80 fee
deep, and 425 from 20 to i?0 feet, ant
have made a survey of 20,000 squari
miles of country hitherto unmapped
When their task is finished, Russia wil
have effaced from the map of Earopi
one of the oldest and toughest bits o
savage nature on the continent, and i
few years will suffice to render the Pinsl
marshes (indistinguishable from the res
of the cultivated region of the sources o

HOW THE CIRCUS MAN EATS.
Ilia Iilfe Not Kxactly Wfamt the Avcrtfe
Small Boy Thinks It la.
Mr. James M. Nixon, who knows all
I about a circus, said to the Cook: "There
i are no people excepting plainsmen?
j the skirmishers over the wild country of
] the West?who live so hard a life as
circus employees, both pertorniers and
workinrmen. Their lives are not as
hard now, it is true, as it was some
years ago. excepting with the small con1
ccrns. They are the wagon shows' that
( travel through the small towns. But
even with the big concerns that travel
by train it is hard enousrh now.
''Take the ease ol a wagon show that
has to travel thirty miles after a night
performance to get to the next town,
where a street procession is to be made
in tne iorenoon. 1 lie workmen, canvasmen,
and the like have to take break,
fast at 11 o'clock at night. Then
! they get no meal till dinner, after the
procession, say at noon. Wherever
j they are their work must be attended to
first, eating is a second consideration.
With the performers, gymnasts, riders,
clowns, and the like it is not so bad.
They get better pay and better food,
j As a rule they live on the best food
there is to be had where they happen to
be, and they take a great deal of it.
Most of them are great beef eaters, and
not very particular whether the meat is
cold or hot so long as it is good and
plenty. They are very particular, however,
about cleanliness, 1 have seen
twenty or thirty of them get up and
leave the table because the table cloth
was dirty. And when they want a meal
they want it, and will have it. I have
often seen them leave a hotel where they
would have to wait fifteen minutes for a
I dinner that was paid for, nnd go to a
1 restaurant where they would have to
buy another. They won't, cat unless
they are hungry; but they are always
hungiy afler a night performance, and
will not. iro to bed without a hearty slipper.
They say they can't sleep if Ihey
are c npt.y.
One thing that is peculiar about tlieni
is that they do not take medicine, and
they are remarkably healthy. When
they are out of sorts they diet themselves,
each one according to his own
ideas, but I dont think I ever saw $50
worth of medicine around a circus in all
the years I have been in the business.
Yes, they drink. Not to excess, but
nearly all of them drink when they feel
like it. They never drink, however,
! before performing. They are very
careful of themselves. They have to be
or they would not last long.
jys a maucr 01 course wun ineir
irregular habits, they are in a certain
sense ext ravagant.. Their extravagance,
however, is mainly in the matter of eating.
Experience teaches them very
soon, if their own sense does not at first,
that they must take the very best possible
care of themselves physically, and
that good eating is a primary consideration."
There has been in late years a vast improvement
in all departments of the
travelling circus, and in nothing has
this been more observable, to those in
the business, than in the provisions
made for the health and comfort of the
employees. A good chief cook with a
circus will get as good a salary as a firstclass
performer, aud has to earn it.

They Found an Honest Man.
Last April John Pfletcher, a farmer of \
Blooming Giove, Pa., quarrelled with I
, his neighbor, John Hobday, and I
' finally shot him, inflicting a severe i
j wound. On the following day Pfletcher
was arrested and held to await the action
of the Grand Jury on a charge of
attempted manslaughter. The following
month Pfletcher escaped from iail in !
Milford, Pike county, went to hie home, j
where he remained two weeks, and then
returned and gave himself up, giving as
a reason for running away that he wanted
to plant his spring corn. At the June term
of court he was found guilty of assault
in the second decree. When naked hv i
CD ' ' J j
Judge Seeley if he had any reason to ;
ofTer why sentence should not be '
pronounced, he arose and said: i
Yer Honor, I have. You sec, I have j
twenty tons of hay out in the field, and ;
it will be worth $20 a ton next fall, I j
wish you would let me go and get it in, :
and then I will come back in the fall
and stand any sentence you may pass
upon me.
\ This proposition struck Judge Seeley
as decidely original, but after consulting
with Associate Judges liaker and
Hornbeck he allowed him to depart on
his own recognizance, telling him to be
back at the October term to receive sen- I
tence. Promptly on the opening of i
court Pfletcher was on hand, and Judge !
Seeley sentenced him to imprisonment j
in the Milford jail for sixty uays and to |
pay a line 01 $l?u. Ills term was up
last Monday and then a new difficulty
arose. He had only $80, and therefore
could not pay the line. Pfletcher sent
for Judge liaker and offered to give his
note lor $100.
"I have no objection," Raid the Judge,
"providing the County Commissioneres
! will accept It."
j The Commissioners were summoned,
and after being assured by Pfletcher
. ' "there was no danger, he would pay it
if he had to work his finger nails olf,"
. thev accepted his note without an en.
dorser, and Pfletcher was a free man
once more.
What She IMU to Cheer Her Up.

The Thug's of India.
Thugs were a *ort of assassins in Indin
but were exterminated by the Engl is]
government. They roamed about th
country in bands of from thirty to three
hundred, and strangled to death sue]
persons as they could decoy into the:
comp.iny. Their atrocious practice
were not followed so much fron impulse
of plunder and malice as from religion
motives. They wcie worshipers of th
goddess Kail, who presided over impur
love, sensual indulgence and death. Th
members of the sect belonged to d fTcr

and a guru or teacher. Its member
