Popnlsr rtrlence News.) Physiologists and lovers of athletics may 1 interested in recent experiment and researches of a Prrnfh artUleryi.Captaln, M.

de Ruoul. who, some fifteen years ago, began to try to find out the most economical and least trying way of walking. There are many manners of walklua. some of hit-h are much devoid of grace (the average Knglisli woman's Is a verv good put it may ue supposed (but as far as efficiency is concerned one must he better than the others. M.

de Km ml lias come to the conclusion that, as far as fast walking is concerned, the besi method Is thai which be calls mart-he enflexiou. The principle is to run without leaping, to raise the body above ground as Utile as po-ible. to keep the knees bent, the upper purl of the body inclined forward, that practically you are always running after vour center of gravity. The feet must be raised only very slightly. M.

de Kaoul. who has now some years of experience, says that he can take anv man between Ji and If and teach bun to run as long as his lews can carry him without getting out of breath. Some men an, on the very first trial of the metlmd. run seven or eigiit nyles without stopping, while, with the ordinary tactics, they could not have run over one mile. The first kilometer (a kiloineteris five eighths ol a mile) is usually covered in seven minute and a quarter, the second in six minutes and the third in five minutes and forty-tHe seconds.

An interesting featureof M. de Kaoul's researches In that is Thai even after a long run. according to his method, a stiff walk is no trouble at ail the muscles which xvoik In iMith ca-es do not belong to the same set, and while one exercise- is performed the muscles which minister to the other rest. rBIGHTENED E0BSE3.

He Has Net Been Seen Anjwfaere Since Wednesday, Although His Accounts With the Prudential Insurance Com pan -Are All Right What has become of John Griffin? An answer to this question would greatly relieve lb troubled minds of the gentleman's family and many friends.

v. Mr. ttrirSn was unUI but Wednesday actively engaged as an agent for the Prudential Life Insurance Company, which has an office to the Pike Building, (suddenly dropped oat of sight and nothing has been beard from him since. On Tuesday night he waf with his wife and fourteen-year-old boy at their home in Lin-wood. He was quite cheerful, and mentioned nothing of an Intended departure on tbe following day.

He had eolU-cted a large amount of money for the Prudential uivl carefully. placed it away with ihe company' bonk in his possession. Wednesday morning he came to tow but for some reason did not bring with him the proceeds of HIS COLLKCriOX to i' a. On the afternoon of the day in question a Mr. Ward, who resides next door to Mr.

Griffin, in Linwood, hiet the latter on Central avenue. The two chatted for a few moments, and Mr. Urirfln. as he withdrew, requested Mr. Ward to inform his wife that he might not return home that night, and for her not to worry.

This suggestion struck Mr. Ward as very strange, lie had never known his neigh-lor to remain fromionie over night before. Mr. Orimii then walked out Sixth street toward the West End of the city. i This was the last seen of him.

and tbe wife, who Is a cultured little woman, is distracted over his strange disappearance and continued absence. Yesterday morning Mr. J. E. Nooiiau, Assistant Superintendent of the Prudential, as prom nted.

by the failure to show up ct the company's agent, to pay a visit to the UrlfTin residence, in Linwood. There he found Mrs. tirifnn crying, us though her heart would break, while tbe son was endeavoring to console hU mother. The grief-stricken lady endeavored to dry her tears, and then handed over to Mr. Noonan all the money her husband had brought home on Tuesday night, together with the companv's books.

Mr. Noonan at vnce returned to his office In the city, and Immediately began an investigation of Mr. Oriffln's accounts. Late in the afternoon Mr. Ward, at Mrs.

Griffin's request, bore a note to Mr. Noonan, asking how 7 THE ABSEXT MAM'S ACCOrSTS Stood with the company. The reply was that, so fur as the examiner bad proceeded, every cent had been accounted for and all matters were as straight as a die. Mr. Ward, who has been so active In his efforts to solve the mystery of Mr.

Griffin's disappearance, is greatly alarmed lot the object of his search lias been the victim of foul play. Mr. Griffin was known to every insurance man in town, and us a collector and agent for the Prudential and other companies collected large sums of money daily. Many people were aware of this, and Mr. Ward believes it not at all improbable that Mr.

Griffin has been foully dealt with. Un the other band. Mr. Ward says that since Mr. Griffin has failed to return home he remembers that when he saw him on Wednesday he acted very strangely, lie seemed careless about bis personal appearance, his attire, and in the con vcri-ation was very absent-minded, while his customary behavior was Just the reverse, lie was a man past 40 years.

"However, he was not a strong man physically and did not enjoy the best of health at any time. There are thoe who believe that this continued Illness may have so worried him that the unfortunate man decided to put an end to it all tar away from home and family. FOR HIS THROAT.

Exciting- Battle of Trainer Gilbert in a lien of Wolves. Francisco xamiaer. George Gilbert was bitten In the wrist yesterday afternoon by one of tbe performing wolves in Boone's wild animal show at the Midwinter Fair. Gilbert's wolves are of that fierce variety which abound upon the steppes of Bussia. Just before the performance yesterday he was turning them out of their cages Into the show pen.

One animal slnnk in a corner of its cage and would not come out. Gilbert reached his whip in and poked the wolf with it. The wolf seized the whip between its teeth and snuoped it off. Then the beast, roused to a sudden, savage fury, made a spring straight for the keeper's throut. Gilbert threw up bis left arm to protect himself, and the wolf, failing of his throat, bui ied its fangs into his wrist.

The man shook the animal on, and then, ruining blows with the whin-butt upon his head, soon subdued it. A little later Gilbert gave his performance and mad? the wolf thai had bitten him go through its usual tricks. GilDert's wounds were dressed at the Receiving Hospital. Ihe-sharp fangs of the wolf had cut into both sides of the wrist, producing a very painful laceration. A COLT'S riQHT WITH A GOAT.

Louis Glohe-llemocrat "The most singular fight I ever saw," said E. L. McCormick jhe corridor man at the Laclede, "was between a three-year-old colt and a goat. They occupied the same lot and bad always been on friendly terms until one day tbe horse shook his head while eating corn from the ground. Tbe goat took it for a challenge and in a moment knocked the horse nearly senseless.

The colt turned his heels and kicked, the goat dodging the blow and butting the horse on the foreleg, bringing him to his knees. Again and again the colt tried to kick him, and soon they were chasing each other around the lot as rapidly as thev could travel. Finally tbe goat got too close to the horse and the latter succeeded in getting a firm grip on tbe neck of hi antagonist. That closed the-batile in faxorof the horse, and when the goat was rescued it took several hours so resuscitate it into showing any signs of life. A Iter that the two continued to occupy the same lot and were the best of friends." THOSE GOOD OLD TIMES." "I often hear of the good old times," said J.

F. Kindrick. of Pittsburg, to the corridor man of tbe St. Louis Globe-Democrat. "Be ins now HO years of age, I remember them well.

I was raised on a farm and we grew tbe finest peaches 1 ha ever seen; these we sold for twiiiy-nve cents a bushel. We raised wheal and corn. The wheat we ground up and made into unpalatable bread because we bad no market for It. The corn -we fed to live stock and drove the stock 3UU miles to sell it. I have seen sheep carcasses sell for twenty-five cents apiece.

Egg were worth five cents a wen. Bt this lime we paid twenty-five cents to cent postage to send a letter, seventy-five cents a yard forcallco.iorty cents a yard for cotton cloth and other goods in proportion. For lights we bad tallow dipa. for matches we had libit and under, tor window glass we had grea-ed paper. It sounds well to talk of the good obi times, but they ware not what la usually represented."

A. E. Burkhunlt. M. J.

Mack. Albert Erken-brecher. F. X. Reno and Jaob Scheuer went out of the Equitable; the First did not take a new man to succeed William H.

Hooper, but took up Cashier Will S. Kowe: down at the Market the son of the President, Julius Fleischmann. was elected to the Directory. while J. H.

Frey went out a new man went in. The Merchant' National did not surprise anybody who was on the inside by taking in Charles D. Kinney, while tbe Citizens' chose a strong factor to succeed the late Henry Lewis in Attorney John Warrington. This was a foregone conclusion. The drooping of Directors Harry B.

Morehead and A. H. Hughes from the Ohio Valley National was not unlooked for. while the change of two Directors at the Atlas was all because the old ones wanted to step out. The new President, howevet, was a general surprise.

The other Presidential change was thatof Captain Reno. Tbat was not a surprise. There have been times when everybody was kept guessing at the results of the annual elections, but not this year. The vote was unusually heavy in nearly every Instance. M.

Jacobs, well-known as a business man at Felicity, Ohio, has sold out, and is now In business at Higglnsport, Ohio. Hear that several Oncinnatlans will take In the second annual excursion of manufacturers to Mexico on January 23. They will start from St. Louis.

The Ohio Supreme Court has dismissed the petition of the Penn Mutual Insurance Company for a mandamus restraining tbe State Insurance Superintendent from enforcing the ruling as to the taxation of lite -insurance companies in Onio.

The Davis Coal and Coke Company, of Grafton, W. la making arrangements to do big business in coke. The company will get coal by rail from Cumberland to Baltimore, and thence by sea to Tampieo, a port on tbe Mexican coast. The absence of bituminous coal in our sifter Republic has forced the ail ver smelters to look to other places for coke, and until recently the English supplied the coke. Shippers from 'Baltimore, however, are now making big inroads on Briton's trade.

One company last I year loaded elaven steamers wit4t coke for LMexicoand the West Indies. The valne of Mexico output was over or almost one third of the world's production. It is necessary to use coke in extracting the silver ironi the iron ore. The principal diet from the Atlantic Ocean is through Tampieo, whence the coke 1 distributed by rail to the interior. Tom Emery leaves to-night for Africa for six months stay.

It was due to the vote of its stock that Lee Keck was returned to the Secretaryship the last election. You know he has been out for a year now, and his services have been missed. Norwood's five per cent, water-works bonds have been considered a good thing. Kley-bolte sold them all at 108. Tbe very valuable property at the south-east corner of Second and Main, belonging to the Stall estate, go I hear, is In the market for a very anxious sale.

Its taxes due amount to KI.Hoi), and It Is valued at Julius Freiberg, the whisky man, has off ered S3O.UU0 for it- Alfred Season good is flguringon L. Block's residence on Park avenue. There Is strong talk among the citizens of Clifton and Avondule about renewing tbe efforts undertaken some time ago to establish in these two stately suburban places a system parks, to be connected by beautiful drive-fays. It will be remembered tbat at a spe-ial election held in Clifton for tbe nurtxwe. of voting for the Issuance of bonds to provide for park extensions the question was defeated by a small majority, and the matter as not been nut before the eleotnra of Avon- dale owing to a flaw in the ordinance drawn up providing for the election.

Since annexation appears to be inevitable it is thought advisable by some to agitate he onestliMi anew, so thst. -when nailv taken within the city, the park so much desired by the villagers and the city itself may be brought in witn them. The main reason advanced by those opposed to the ordinance providing for tbe parks waa that the villages already had too large a tax duplicate to undertake any new ventures of the same kind. Since the debts of the vlllarM. laree or small.

are to-be assumed by the city under the annexation scheme. It is thought a most opportune time to bring up the question again, when it will not be met with the objection above stated, and may be carried through. Hear that leading brokers on Third street. who are very much sought after now by bankers, owing to the fact that the latter have an Immense amount of ready cash to loan, are holding back doing business with them because bankers do not have a reDre- sentation in the Stock-exchange. The old Stall homestead, on McMillan street opposite Moorman avenue, is in tbe market for S50.000.

The old Slmpklnson homestead on East Walnut Hills, hich belonged to the late W. H. Harrison, Is still In the market.

He paid 50,00 for it. Shortly after bis death Pogue, the dry goods man, offered that amount for it, but it as declined. That money will buy it now. The bead of a firm here tbe other day received a telegram from a big Eastern financial bouse saying in substance: "We will loan you on your own name at 3 per cent- for six months." "This is but one of nearly a half dozen such offers we have had since the first of tbe year," said the gentleman, in discussing the matter. Apropos of this, others have made similar offers.

Business men that is, men whose financial stamlitr Is well known have heen surprised during the past few days by certain callers.
