A French chemist, claims to have proved that, on burning in' air equal volumes of coal gas and of hydrogen, the ^ame weights of nitrogen are con­ verted Into ammonia, and that, on burning equal volumes of coal gas and of hydrogen, the nitrogen transformed Into nitrous acid will always have ap­ proximately the same weight; but on burning carbon monoxide, nearly two and one-halt' times more nitrogen is found in the state of nitrous acid than in the;former case. \n the burning of one kilogram of each of these gases, it is stated that the most, nitrogen, in the state of ammonia, and in the state of nitrous and nitric atids, is found in the combustion of hydrogen, only o.ne.- fourth of the quantity being' found in the ease of coal gas, and about one- twentieth In burning carbon monoxide. On burning wood charcoal in air, whether merely dried or heated to red­ ness, the quantity .of nitrogen contain­ ed in the nitrous and nitric acid collect­ ed is said to be almost equal to that of the product, and there is not much dif­ ference in the .result of burning an equal amount of coke. It is remarked that the formatipn of ammonia during the combustion of coke or charcoal is merely a result of the decomposition of these substances, and thus the weight of the ammonia formed varies according to the degree of heat.

But it led to the rediscovery of the fact that in olden times the French executioner was paid accord­ ing to "a fixed tariff. The highest price, 48 1ivres, was set on boiling a crimi- nal in oil. 20 livres had to be paid for beheading a person. 36 livres for burn­ ing a witch, 10 livres for branding, and 4 livres for whipping a malefactor, etc. HOW AN ADVERTISEMENT SAVED A WOMAH'S LIFE.

THE BEST TEST k verna:* American Citizen Sttbmits to Much Imposition. W. W. Watson, of Chicago, waited six months before he complained about a peanut-vender's whistle on one of the postqffice coruer.s, though he suffered acutely in mind and body from the piercing shriek it emitted all day long. He lost flesh worrying about it, it stirred every liber in his being, his .ears rang with its sound after he had gone borne at night, lie dreamed1 of it, it destroyed his appetite and bis temper, and unfitted liiin for business. But it was not until six ijiontlis of this tor­ ture had passed that he thought of cpm- plainiug. When he did complain the noise was stopped. There you have the American citizen, all over. He will endure1 any annoy­ ances rather than make a row about it. Fruit peddlers disturb his rest in the early morning and awake him to a day of nervousness and ill-temper. He is in­ terrupted in ills progress down-town by an open bridge'. His nostrils are tilled and his skin blackened with the nasty smoke of noisy tugs.' He sturuble's along .a narrow path in a sidewalk almost wholly covered with fruit baskets that have no right t,o.bp there. He picks his way through mud and filth at the cross­ ings. People; dig their elbows into his ribs and step on bis toes in the eleva­ tor. He lunches in a room crowded to suffocation and' nausea; he is served by.insolent, .careless, unclean waiters; with food dumped upon a thick and greasy plate;< he orders coffee, and gets, a vile liquid that tastes like dishwater. He is importuned by newsboys wb.o cease from yelling only while they make change. He walks in the perilous street around the mortar-beds and heaps of brick and lumber that occupy the sidewalk in front of buildings be­ ing torn down or put up, and lie is spat­ tered with mud from head to foot. He climbs upon a street car and hanging on to a strap or clinging to a rail is crushed by all sorts of people. He is detained in a tunnel by a broken cable and cheerfully walks the rest, of the way. In the evening he listens to the strident cries of gamins and hoodlums and to the nerve-wrecking noises of the strolling brass band andj^e portable hand organ, goes to bedto§ir^ed--ffie whole night inhaling the sickening odor of Bridgeport and part of it hearing the wail of the switch engine and the bumping crash of, the freight car--and never complains. It never occurs to him to complain. He will stand any­ thing rather than complain, even though he knows complaint will end his suffering. The American citizen is the good-na­ tured man of the fables. He knows he has rights, but Is too easy-going and complaisant to stand up for them. He has a horror of a "scene." He is afraid of disagreeable prominence. He pre­ fers to slink alone harried, insulted, browbeaten, with shattered nerves. It is easier. But how much longer the city dweller would live, how much pleasanter his life would be, how much healthier he would find himself, if only he had a lit­ tle more courage and a little more ob­ stinacy. One-half the noises that make him miserable are totally unnecessary and could be stopped if he took a firm stand, and the other half would not be necessary if he set his ingenuity to work. But he will do neither. Is it any wonder neurasthenia grows com­ mon? Is it any wonder the race is de­ generating? The Pride of the Stat^i A large amount was expended this year in enlarging and beautifying the State fair grounds at Springfield, and it is be­ lieved the outcome will prove the wis­ dom of the selection of a permanent site. The fair grounds consists of 15U acres of beautifully undulating prairie/ finely wooded and watered, and perfectly drained. They are situated two and one- half miles north of Springfield courthouse, are highly picturesque, and are admira­ bly adapted for fair purposes. They are reached^ by two lines of steam cars and _the Springfield City Electric Railway. It -1 is estimated that at least. 25,000 people can be handled each hour. Springfield gave a cash bonus of „$50,- 000 for the fair. The exposition building. Tribe, of Wild 'Men Pound. Four curious specimens of humanity have been confined in Xorridgewoek jail, accused of sheep stealing, writes the Augusta, Me., correspondent of the New York Recorder. They were arrested in Brighton. They belong to a gang of about forty persons who have no homes, but who have lived un­ til recently near the Canadian line like wild beasts in the summer and in little or no clothing, and their backs, which have been long exposed to the sun and weather, are covered with a growth of hair fully three inches iong. It is hard to make sense out of their conversation, although they have learned to swear so that they are un­ derstood. One of the men, a giant in form, is an idiot. His sides are l'till of small holes, made by a brad in the end of a stick, when he has been yoked to an ox.

It is a substantial brick structure, 342 feet in length, 217 feet extreme, and 127 feet .in mean width. From the iloor to the bottom of the flagstaff the height is 105 feet. This building is for the mercantile, fine arts, public and private schools, and textile fabric exhibits.

They can be distinguished as far use the eye cun St-e iheni. In 8bmc places where the ground was fought over several times during the battle they stand thif?k. Governor Altgeld and the members of the Illinois commission were a hundred times congratulated on the simplicity and dig­ nity of the design they had adopted. Of the zeal and' interest Governor Altgeld lias shown in the monument work Gen­ eral Boynton, of the national commission, is quoted as saying the park commission­ ers had received more assistance from him than from the Governor of any other State. • * The Illinois dedication was at Lytle Hill, near where General Lytle was killed. Captain J^r. Everest, of the Illinois com­ mission, had had erected a commodious speakers' stand decorated' with national colors and the coat of arms of the State. From the front of it floated the tattered flag which on the day of battle marked General Thomas' headquarters. Shortly after Governor Altgeld,. with his party, arrived at the park he was in­ troduced and spoke in part as follows; "We are here under one flag, all lovers of one common country, all citizens of this: mighty republic and We have come to perform an act of unusual significance. A great battle-field is to be dedicated--is to be made sacred ground. Upon that field are the footprints of the sons of Illinois, and we have journeyed from afar to place enduring monuments on the spots where they stood, where they fought, where the bled and' where hundreds of t h e m d i e d . . • ' . / t • '"Ah, it is. not the- fact that a struggle took" place, but' it. is the character M the struggle, the principles involved ami the heroic deeds done, there that move us to action. - :. ; v'V': . •:, "Monuments are erected to give p'er- pctuai expression to a sentiment which language is too .limited to portray and too ephemeral to preserve. "Over a third of a century ago there raged across this continent the greatest conflict the world had ever seen. Never had war been waged on so gigantic a ' scale. There was almost a continuous line of hostile armies from the Atlantic to the Rocky Mountains, and there was a navy stretching from New York around to the shores of Mexico. "The primary question involved was, 'Shall this government be destroyed or preserved ?'. But. this question itself grew out of the more fundamental question of slavery. More than a million of men in all came down from the North, shouting as they marched, 'This union forever and equal rights for all.' The world had never seen such a spectacle. Here were great armies fighting, not for aggrandize­ ment, not for conquest, but for the in­ tegrity of the flag and the principle of universal freedom. Over two hundred thousand men came down from our great MACHINERY HALL, ILLINOIS STATE FAIR. This dome is 186 feet in diameter and 150 feet high, and is flanked by four annexes each 60 feet square, making the building/ 232 feet each way in extreme measure­ ment. It is for the accommodation of the agriculural, horticultural and dairy ex­ hibits. The administration and executive offices of the board will also be in this building. Next in importance cor.ies machinery hall, which is 500 feet in length and .137 feet wide, 17G feet being inclosed and the remaining 224 covered like a great train shed. "For the accommodation of hogs ami sheep a building covers four acres, with show ring under cover, offices for the superintendents, and pens enough for 2,000 swine and 1,500 sheep. For horses and cattle there are eighteen new barns; four were built especially for speed horses. Of the other fourteen barns, each 44 by 100 feet, Six are as­ signed to cattle and eight to light and heavy horses. A new grand stand, with a seating • capacity of nearly 10,000 people, has been erected at a cost of $35,000. Thisj; is a steel structure, 300 feet long and 100 feet deep, furnished with opera chairs. The lovers of fast horses will be.greatly pleased with the new race course. It cost .$10,000. It is a full regulation mile track, with quarter turns and quarter stretches, perfectly tiled and beautifully fenced. It is as smooth as'a floor, and it is said that if some records are hot broken over this track it will not be the fault of the track. Neither expense nor pains has been spared in making it a per­ fect one. These and many other improve­ ments have been made at an expense of fully $500,000. The fair will be conducted by the Illi­ nois State Board of Agriculture, consist­ ing of a president, an ex-president, and twenty-two vice presidents--one from each congressional district in the State. .Tames W. Judy, of Tallula, is now presi­ dent of the board. He was born in the State of Kentucky in May, 1S22. and has been a member of the board' for twenty years. He is an extensive farmer and a great lover of fine stock, with which his farm is well supplied. He is known throughout the United States and Canada as a live stock auctioneer, and it is said of him that he has sold more thorough­ bred cattle under the hammer than any man in the world. Ex-President David Gore is the pres­ ent. State Auditor and was president of the board for the years 1893-1894. His home is at Carlinvillc. Wilson Coburn Garrard, the secretary of the board, was born in the State of Kentucky in 1848. He has held his present position since 1889, prior to which he was chief clerk in the secretary's office for a number of years. He takes the greatest interest in the success of the board, and has for months past been working early and late in behalf of the fair. His confident pre­ diction is that the show of 1895 will be a record breaker in the history of Illi­ nois State fairs. ILLINOIS AT CHICK AM AUG Au ' * ~ . i • - ! The Field Dotted Thickly with Monu­ ments to Her Dead. f Illinois' part in the recent great event at phiekamauga was. consummated Wednesday, in the 'dedication of twenty-nine monuments, each in­ scribed with the name , of the regiment, the brigade, division and corps whose valor it commemorates. Seven more are to be erected, five on Cliicka- mauga,field and two on Missionary Ridge and Lookout Mountain. They are all alike save in the inscription, massive blocks of Qjiincy granite on a granite en­ tablature." On the side of each, facing the direction in which the enemy was, in large raised letters, is the name of the State. Beneath this is the names of the regiment in letters cut into the stone- Each is placed in a position occupied at some time during the .battle by the regi- aient it commemorates. Every IUinoisan Prairie State of Illinois. They met one of the bravest foes that ever drew steel-- men who rushed into battle with a yell even when they saw destruction written in the sky: men who were honest, men who believed they were right and who rode forth to death without a quiver. "But the principle these men fought for meant the perpetuation of human slavery. They were lighting for a con­ dition againsi which the humanity of the ;-ge protested. They were fighting for the prolongation of an era which on the cal­ ender of the Almighty was marked to close--and they failed. Now. my friends, we owe our country more than talk; we cannot discharge our duty by simply celebrating the glorious deeds of the past. Those nations which stand with their face toward the past are rotten at heart and are on the ruad to1 extinction. "Every age brings its own dangers, and those that come stealthily are frequently more fatal than those that conic with a mighty noise. The war has settled that we have nothing to fear from armed foes. But to destroy liberty by poisoii and slow., strangulation is just as fatal to a nation as to strike it down by the sword. "Instead of an "armed foe that we can meet, on the field, there io to-day an enemy that is invisible, but everywhere at work destroying our institutions; that enemy is corruption. "Born of vast concentration of capital in unscruplous hands, corruption is wash- ii i the foundations from under us, and is t inting everything it touches with a i .oral leprosy. "A new gospel has come among us, ac­ cording to which 'it is mean to rob a henroost of a hen, but plundering thou­ sands makes us gentlemen.' "Thirty-four years ago the call was for men to fight an open enemy in the field; to- dayourcountry is calling for men who will SPECIMEN IL.R.IXOIS MONUMENTS. be true to republican institutions at home. Never before did this republic call so loudly as it does to-day for a strong, sturdy manhood that will stand up def­ initely and dare to do right. "My friends, the men of the past ditf their duty. Shall we do ours? They were asked to face death--you may have to face calumny and obloquy. No man ever rserved his country without being vilified, for all who make a profit out of injustice will be your enemies, but as sure as the heavens are high and justice is eternal will you triu&ph in the efad. Let m^ say to the young men the age is weary of campfollowers, weary of servility, weary of cringed necks and knees bent to corrup­ tion; this age is calling for soldie^k, call­ ing for strong character, Calling, for men orbig purpose, calling for men who have convictions of their own and who have the courage to act on them. And the doors of fame's bright temple never opened so widely and beckoned «o earn­ estly as they do to-day. Rise to the oc­ casion, steer our country away from the shoals toward which it is drifting, keep; it on the great ocean of justice and <>f liberty,, and monument^ of granite will tell the story of your lives and you will taste the nectar of the gods." The Governor was listened to with the closest attention, and was frequently applauded. • S. Ctov*! Rejkat . . . >. assess ABSOLUTELY PURE f A 'furfmun's Tale. A New Jerseyman told iue a good story the other day on one of our fore­ most turfmen, a man whose name is perhaps printed oftener than that of any other connected with the racing in America, says a» writer in the Netv York Press. A good many years ago this turfman, who was not then deep in the racing business, arrived in Jer­ sey City with a trainload of mustangs from the plains of Texas. He knew nothing of tiie laws of the State, nor of the ordinances of the city.-- He knew that lie wanted to. sell his mustangs, and thought the best way. to do it was to sell them at auction. Being some­ what gifted in speech, he determined that he would be .his own auctioneer; The sale started out well. Fair prices were realized. Suddenly it was inter­ rupted by policemen, who demanded a view of our friend's license. ., - "License?" lio said amir/cd. "What license? . T haven't any license of any kind." .. . . "Well, you can't sell horses in this eity without a license. You'll have to cohie along,' No monkey, business with US,". . '. ' • '-'J-.' . Of course he went along, but he was lucky enough to find a friend at court (a lawyer) who went bail for him in the sum of $50. Then the lawyer said; "A license costs $250. You are un­ der bonds. Go ahead and finish your sale, collect your money, and skip out. Give me $50 to settle the forfeited bond, and you are $200 ahead of the game." It was done accordingly. The turf­ man and his friend met m the St. James Hotel lately and laughed over the joke. 1 He Does Not Fly. Of course the flying squirrel has no wings, and lie does not really rise and fly; but good Mother Nature has kindly given him a wide fringe of skin run­ ning nearly all the way around his body, which forms a very perfect para­ chute. When he leaps from his treetop into the air, and spreads himself, his parachute and his broad, flat tail ena- , ble him to float down easily and grace­ fully, in a slantiug direction, until he flights low down on the trunk of a tree perhaps fifty or even one hundred feet distant. Then he clambers nimbly up to its top, chooses his direction, and launches forth again, quite possibly to the same tree from which he started. His flight is simply a sailing downward at an angle of about forty-five degrees, with a graceful sweep upward at the last, to enable him to alight easily. It Refused to Be Comforted. Mr. Henry Irving, the well-known actor, once took a fancy to a beauti­ ful collie dog belonging to a Highland shepherd. The man was very unwill­ ing to part with his dog, but the sum offered for it--$300--was a little for­ tune in his own eyes, and he resolved to sell it. yfhere are two to the making of a bargain, however, as Uie saying is, and when the collie reached London it refused to be comforted. In fact, it was so unhappy in its new life, and its misery caused Mr. Irving to feel so uncomfortable that he determined to restore it to its old master. Imagine (lie dog's joy. and the shepherd's too, when the creature returned to its High­ land home. One is reminded of the love of the Arab for his steed in reading of this pretty story. Too Old to Work, at Ninety-six. A delightful story of poor-law admin­ istration comes to me from Thirsk. At Carlton Husthwaite, a small village in that neighborhood, lives a veteran of 96. who was at the battle of Water­ loo. For some considerable time he has been on the union books as ̂ recipient of outdoor relief. But recently a great doubt arose in the minds of the guar­ dians, why the old man did not earn his own livelihood. So the expense was incurred of sending a medical offi­ cer some miles to examine the nono- genarian, and report whether he was fit for work or not. It is needless to say that he was not..

The scourge of grasshoppers which has been devastating the region round a&out Brighton, Col., and which a week or two ago threatened to entirely de­ stroy all crops in that part of the State, ha.s been suddenly stayed by a scourge of some kind falling upon the grasshop­ pers. About a week ago they stopped in their march and died in vast num­ bers. and in a few days but few re­ mained alive. The local scientists say they died of consumption. The authori­ ties of the districts in Minnesota, and Idaho afflicted with the grasshopper pest applied for and received a num­ ber of the dead insects from Brighton for the purpose of scattering them among the army of hoppers eating the crops iu their districts, and in'the hope of spreading the disease and saving the wheat.

I had Dr. Carreau's pre­ scription filled, and it proved satisfactory, giving quick relief. A. week later, when I had taken all the medicine, I again called oil the " doctor and mentioned the simi­ larity of his prescription and the proprietary remedy spoken of, showing him both the remedy itself and the formula. The doctor was at first somewhat inclined to crit­ icise what he called patent medicines, but appeared to be > surprised when he noted to what } . extent his own prescription ' conformed to the formula I showed 1 It was practically the same. him. After a short time devoted to noting the careful manner in which the proprietary medicine was prepared, he wound up by prescribing it for my case. Of course I had to pay him for telling me to do this, but it was worth the cost to have such high professional assurance that the advertised article was. in fact - -- - ^>4,^ the scientific formula that it purported to be. I might have taken the proprietary medicine in the beginning and saved the doctor's fee, but I think the confidence I have acquired in the.efficacy of the remedy, through the doctor's indorsement of it, is well worth the fee." ; \l I M i sir vial. 10 cents. it Little Flo's Letter."
