She was out-doors most of the time on Thursday and Friday. She used to lock the door of her room and take the key with her. 1 told her that this made it very inconvenient 0n ac' count of the cleaning, and she answer- ed that she had many 1mp0rtant pa-" pers, and servants were so inquisit1ve. On Friday evening she said she had signed a year’s agreement for a house in Russell Square, but would require her present room for several weeks. She went out Saturday at 11 o’clock in the forenoon and returned at 2 o’clock in the afternoon with a bundle of news— papers. - “She had Scarcely reached her mom when two strangers knocked at the house doorsand asked for Mrs. Wilbur or Mrs. Guilford. I told them there was nobody in the house of such a name, and they said they had just seen her come in. They then announced that they were Detectives Froest and Ambez‘line, and they were immediately taken‘to Mrs. McAlllst-er’s room. “She was deathly pale when the de- tectives announced their errand, but she admitted nothing, though she did not deny her guilt. She dressed and entered a four-wheeler in the detectives company. The officers packed her trunk and bag and took them along. Afterward two other detectives search- ed her room, but found nothing except in the fireplace, where there was an immense quantity of burned fragments of letters. These they took away, many of them being only half burned.” The Bridgeport police are slowly weaving a web of evidence so damag- ing that there will be little chance of escape for Dr. Nancy Gullford when she arrives from London and is brought to trial for the killing of Emma Gill. The newsvof the appre- hension of Mrs. Guilford was received with great satisfaction by the authori- ties.

Ancient pictures of the Hindoo gods depict them with chaplets of beads in their hands, and it is believed that this method of keep- ing count of their many prayers was in use among the'Hindoos before the era of Buddha, or at least B. .C. 500. _ ' The use of the rosary seems espe« cially'suited to an Eastern dime and to the repose of an Oriental mind. The Buddhists are fond of using very smooth beads of glass, polished jade or coral, and it has been thought ,that the smooth, c001 "beads gliding through their fingers as they murmur the holy name for thousands of times help them to arrive at that state of holy abstrac- tion from earthly things which is so much prized among the followers of Buddha. The favorite Japanese rosaries are made of polished wood, crystal, onyx and chased silver, and the Japanese Buddhists repeat in endless devotion “Numa Amida Butzu” (Save us, Bud- dha), ‘while their Chinese brothers have :the blessed name “O-Mi-to-fu” forever on their lips. A rosary of very great size was recently brought from a temple in Kioto, Japan. The largest head is about six inches in diameter. and the rosary ' entire is about twenty-four feet long. The huge beads are of dark brown polished wood. They are hollow and have each a fig- ure of a god inside the little shrine, which can be seen through a lattice of brass ,Work.—Cincinnati Enquirer.

Writing letters, especially to her husband, is thought to be a fearful lmmodesty in a Hindu girl; and she has no chance of improving her mind by intelligent conversation with any one. She must write to her husband, though she has to do it by stealth in the night. The moon is her lamp,a stick out of rthe domestic broom her pen, the juice of the pain berry her ink, and probably the dried leaf of the banana her paper.

In a measure the discovery of Bes- semer’s process was accidental. To begin with, he had no knowledge of chemistry and metallurgy when he first set about his investigation to turn iron into steel. But he visited many places where'iron was wrought .aud he kept his eyes open. He saw that in the slow process of “puddling” the particles of molten-metal were grad- u-allyjbrought into contact with the air and that this seemed to, in time, produce a. fair quantity of steel. Had he known the chemistry which was at work during paddling, Bessemer steel‘undoubtedly would have been made some years sooner than it was. But he only saw the mechanical par! of the operation. He knew that it was a great deal easier to stir air than it was to stir iron, and it was while recovering from a severe illness that the idea came to him of blowing air through the melted iron. As he lay in bed the breezes from an open Window fanned his cheek, and this turned his thoughts in another direc- tion, which proved to be the begin- ning of the problem’s solution. As soon as he was sufficiently re~ covered to resume his investigations he set about making a retort in which he could test his new idea. It was so constructed that a blast of cold air was f0rce'd into the ,bottom‘ so that it would pass through the melted iron in the upper part of the retort. The day for the test arrived, and Henry Bessemer was naturally not the least excited of the group that gathered around the new contrivance. When the pig iron was melted the blast of air was turned in to prevent the metal filling the holes through which the air entered. Then the metal was poured in ‘through the charging hole by an attendant stoker. A tremendous commotion immediately took place within the vessel. “The molten iron,” to quote one present. “bounded from side to side; a violent ebullition was heard going on inside, while a vehement violent flame, ac companled with dazzling sparks, burst from the throat of the cupola, from which the slang was also thrown in large foam like masses. A cast iron plate of the kind used to cover holes in the pavement, that 1had been sus- pended over the mouth of the vessel, dissolved to a gleaming mist, together with half a dozen yards of the chain by which it hung.” It is not surprising that such an un- usual sight should have frightened not only the men, but the daring experi- menter. Bessemer thought he saw in this terrific demonstration of two prime elements the complete failure of his plans. the air before the charge of iron was spoiled or the furnace burned, but the stopcock regulating the supply was so close to the retort that no one dare go near it. This proved fortunate, for soon the commotion within the retort subsided, the fury of decarboni- zation had expended itself, and the. product was run 0E. The result was not quite satisfactory. The product was, for the most part, burnt iron, but Bessemer saw enough in the ex. periment to encourage him in making a second um], and the aroduct fulm this proved to be malle 1e iron. By furthel experiment it was found that by interrupting the piocess be- fore the decurbonization 0f the iron was complete the product was unmis- takably steel, which, when tried, prov- ed to be of very good quality. Here was a discovery of immense import- ance. If malleable iron and steel could be produced direct from pig iron by a process so" rapid and Simple, it could not fail before long to effect an entire revolution in the iron trade. And such it actually did many years before Bessemer closed his long and ”successful career.——Chicago Post. The Art of Reading the Hands. The left hand is passive and the right hand‘is active, 11 palmist tells 11s. When you see a person’s left hand with excellent lines, and then ex- amine the right and find there are none of themthere, you may be sure that that person had talent and abil- ity, but neglected to make use of them. ‘ When the conditions are reversed, then the person has made his or her own character. I can tell a great deal about a person by the general feeling of the hand. The harder a hand is the less susceptible a person is to outside influences, the less fee]- ing a person is apt to have. A soft hand is apt to be the hand of a per— son of great susceptibility. A fat, flabby hand shows indolence, and a white, soft, puffy :hand belongs to a sensuous, selfish person. A person with hard, dry hands is not usually afiectionate. Active mentality will sometimes make a hard hand. There is more character in the thumb than in any other part of the hand. Of course, one feature of a hand cannot be taken as conclusive evidence of the trait it is supposed to indicate, for it may be modified by many others. He wanted to shut OHr‘ i l IN MEN.
