August 1. HE recent acquisition of the John Brown homestead by the state of New York a voluntary gift from the late Kato Field and her associates, to belong forever to the great national park of the Adlrondacks has brought Into unusual prominence at this time the grave of the old hero and the now historic grounds where his home onco stood. Volumes have been written on the life and deeds of old John Brown, of Osawatomle, and there is not a schoolboy anywhere to day who cannot recount the principal events of his life, and the incidents immediately preceding his tragic death. His coming to North Elba and settling on the little farm In the wilds of the Adifondacks, donated to him by Gerritt Smith; his working with Smith to help along his underground railroad scheme, which, durln the dark days of the enforcement of the hated fugitive slave law, was to convey so many men and women from slavery to freedom; his fighting In Kansas; his bold and daring raid at Harper's Ferry, bis arrest, sentence and execution, and his final interment by the big rock in front of his home at North Elba, are all matters of history, and well known to every man, woman, and child who have ever read anything of the history of their Flag Raising on John Brown's Farm, July 21, 1896.

It Is nothing more than unsensltive threads of skin, or hair papillae, as they are called, which grow i rlmlr nriraw nlaces under the same con dltions as the nails grow on tho finger ends. me nair pap uU x.uu face of the skin, Dut are sunk moro cr less, deeply Into it. more deeply as the hair 13 longer, so tlhat long hairs adhere In a deep sac. The number of these hlr papillae, of i course, varies considerably with different! neoDle. but ror eacn individual is constant and unchangeable, aud cannot be increased any more than can tftie number of one's fin ger nails.

The number of hairs depends on tho papillae. Each hair has its own papillae. consequently if there are no papillae, there can be no hair. tno miraoor ot these papillae Is constant, so that the Idea of increasing their number by clipping tlhe I hair must be abandoned. The growth of the I hair depends, rather, on the well being of 'all of tho papillae.

But they are constituent parts of the akin and sharo its fate alike i In both good and evil days.

ing. Bringing an imaginary gun to bear on an equally imaginary flock of geese in the 'Q upper air a cool, determined look came into his face. At the proper place in the story I jfl he said him' whlfih meant both bar rdls of the gun and fearful carnage among the goese. Everybody accepted the wild goos2 incident without comment, but his deer siory which followed next was the cause of coolness him and Mr. Cook which will lasL for days.

It was a remarkable forest he told about, and a no less remarkable deer. he had finished there was a little silence and it occurred to Mr. Cook to tux few questions. "Jacky," he said, "was that the same woods which you were teilin' about where tao trees stood so thick co the ground?" "Yes." "Only two feet apart each way?" "That's the way they stood for mHe3 an' "And the deer's antlers were four feet across?" "Yes. sir," answered Jacky, rather stiffly.

"We'll, how did he run through the woods?" Jacky drummed his heels against the well curb. He looked down the ground and deigned no reply. Then he turned his eyes down the road and appeared to be deeply in tereated In a negro with an ox car: crossing tho long bridge. "I don't see," persisted Mr. Cook, "how that deer ever go: away through such timber as that." "An' I don't see," Mr.

There was an awkward silence for a little whSie and then Jacky AVard with an assumption of great dignity got up and walked away toward his house. Chicago Record. WANTED A BURGLAR. The Peculiar Advertisement and What Came of It.

The city editor had disposed of all the afternoon assignments and as yet had given me nothins to do. That was unusual, for he had for weeks been putting me on "police," a route easy to work and always certain to develop one or more good stories in a day. As the last of the other reporters filed away he called me up to his desk and banded me a "want" advertisement clipped from the columns of another paper, and told me to get the story that lurked behind it. The clipping read: "Wanted A burglar. Apply Mr.

Blank, 1,313 Thoroughfare street." I handed the clipping back and said that the printers had evidently made an error in making the word burglar when Dutier was meant. "The man would never be foolhardy enough to advertise for a burglar," I said. "See that it Is a mistake," said the city editor, and, believing that I was on a wild goose chase for our chief, I departed, feeling that the "old man," as we boys called our chief, was beginning to split hairs in his desire to get all the news. The hcuse was in a very aristocratic neighborhood, and as I rang the bell I was more convinced than ever the peculiar advertisement was certainly only a printer's error and that I would have to go back to the office empty handed. Luckily, as it afterward turned out.

I had no card, and when the servant girl came to the door I merely gave her my name without telling what my business was. The parlor into which I was ushered was that of. a man accustomed to loll in the lap of luxury, and when the gentleman for whom I asked came I was almost tempted to tell him, at the outset, it was about the ridiculous mietake in his advertisement that I had called. A wonderful inspiration in prudence, however, made me say only. "I called about the want ad.

you have in the paper." He was so glad to see me that I smelled a story at once and began to think he would never be so hospitable with a prospective man servant. He insisted on my having lunch before we talked business and then we had a glass of wine to take away "the chill that always hangs around bargaining," as he put it. He had a very fine brand of cigars and insisted on my trying one. I became more and more convinced I had struck what mtust surely develop into a good story. My host was a wizened old man who looked older than he probably was.

He talked all the 'time on everything but the one topic in which I was most interested his advertisement. I no ticed, too, that he talked well on every subject and seemed to be widely read. At last I said I would have to go, and then we got to business. He surprised me by his first question. "Are you a crook?" he asked.

Like an inspiration It camo to me to act the part I had seen so often on the police route, and with my toughest air I answered, "You bet your life I am." He seemed charmed at my reply, but carefully kept the tabie between himself and me, which was, I thought, a tribute to my acting. "Look here, now," I added, "I don't want you to give me away to the police." He promised to keep my secret and to give me all the particulars of what wanted me for. He was interested to know what I had dene, and I told him imaginary and thrilling tales of my thre terms in Joliet and other penitentiaries and my various escapes from prison. I was just the man he was looking for, he said, and my experience as a burglar and safe cracker would serve his purpose. I promised to take any chances he wanted if I were paid well, "for." I added, airly, "that Is my business, taking chances." He was to give me S500 down and other similar sum when the job was done.

In a very confidential fashion he began to unfold his plans, and I marveled at his simplicity in telling them to me, a perfect stranger. "About a week ago," he said, "I was dining with a friend of mine. He has a French cook and always has glorious meals. His place is well appointed and his silver is the most magnificent in this country The old epicure smacked his lips as he remembered the dinner. Then he continued: "As we were dawdling over our cigars I John Brown's Farm.

asked my friend for the chef's recipe for a certain sauce. The chef retused to give it. He carries it in his head now. My Idea Is for you to get that chef, break open his head and steal that recipe. I must have It." Ho was mad, a gourmet with his soul In his EC001 Pittsburg TIme3.

Whait is liberty without wisdom and without virtue? Such liberty Is the greatest or all possible evils, for it Is vice and folly and madness, without tuition and without re train 'Burke. of in FIRES IN JAPAN far away Japan, the land of flowers and fans, the four great ills that mortal man Is heir to arc said to be, earthquake, thunder storms, fires and tidal waves. And well may earthquakes head the list, for the annual destruction and loss of life and property, which they occasion is terrible. Thunder storms are comparatively' harmless, the popular way of escaping them being to run Into a mosquito net and stick a knife and a burning Joss stick upright In tho ground. The tidal waves are dreadful, but they are of rare occurrence and even then their effects are only felt along the coast, the, inland towns escaping injury.

But fire, tho great purifier and destroyer, is the most uncertain of all the scourges, coming when least expected, sometimes wiping entire towns out existence. Formerly, In the city of Yeddo, when th great shogun. as the ruler is called, held court, fires were called "flowers of Yeddo," and so great and strong did they bloom that In lesr than thirty years they destroyed a total spac equal to tho size of the city itself. In Japan the houses are mostly built of wood, sjtone or brick houses being exceedingly dangerous unless very firmly built, on account of the large number of earthquakes, and it Is for this reason that the fire3 are of such magnitude and frequency. This wood becomes like tinder the burning rays of a semi tropical sun.

The grea castle of Yeddo, since its occupation by the Tokuyawa dynasty in 1590, has seven times been completely destroyed. The first of the great conflagrations occurred in 1601, when the entire city was destroyed and it is estimated that over 2,500 persons lost their lives. Until this time tha houses were all straw thatched, but when tho city was rebuilt orders were issued to cause all structures to havo wocden roofs. It was at this time, also, that a man named Taxiyama Yajibel, being of a progressiva nature, thatched half his roof with earthern tiles. This caused much comment and OLD STYLE JAPANESE FIRE LOOKOUT.

(From a Japanese Cut.) was pointed out as mad, earning for himself the soubriquet of "Half Tile" Yajibel, but nevertheless his madness was soon copied by others and in time all the houses were so roofed. In 1657 occurred in Y'eddo what to this day is called the long sleeve fire, for this reason, it seems that a certain daimyo and his daughter were returning from a Journey one spring day when the trees were In bloom. On the way the maiden happened to see a young page, with whom she fell violently In love. Think ink of him continually she languished and pined away until she died. Before her death her mother placed on her bed a long sleeve garment of the same pattern as that the page had worn and at her funeral it was placed on her bier, which was taken to the tainple at Hommyoji.

Here the priests sold the dress'? to a second hand daler, who In turn disposed of It to a 3'oung girl, who saw it hanging ia his shop. Six months later the girl died and the garment was laid on her coffin, which was taken to the same temple. Again it was sold to the dealer and in half a year It reached the temple on the coffin Gf the third girl. At this the priests were seized with fear and resolved to burn it, so, lighting a big fire, they cast it into the flames. The wind sprang up, however, and blew It against the temple, setting it ablaze.

The fire spread rapidly and raged for a day and a night, being only stopped by the lack of fuel. The conflagration became known the long' sleeve fire, after the garment which was Its cause. The fire covered an area a mile broad and over nine miles long. The next great fire was in 1772, when tha all destroying element cleared a path fifteen miles long and over a mile wide through the heart of the city. In 1S06, in twelve hours, over three square miles wera burned, eighty three daimyos' mansions, eighty six tempies and shrines and five hundred and thirty dwellings being destroyed.

Strange as it may seem 90 per cent, of the) fires in Japan take place in the latter part of the winter. Thus, out of fifty fires which occurred in Y'eddo In one year, four were In December, five in January, seventeen in February, sixteen in March and three in April, leaving but five to the remaining seven months. This Is due to the extensive use of open fire braziers and other heaters at this season, and also to the high north and northeast winds which prevail during tho winter. Since the restoration In 1S67 thers have been five great fires, not to mention the hundreds of smaller ones, which occur almost dally. The first was In 1872, when over two square miles were destroyed, the territory embracing forty one streets.

In 1876 10,000 houses on seventy six streets wera burned, rendering over 150,000 people' homeless, and over 500 lost their lives. In 1S79 13,500 houses and 77 streets were burned; 11,000 houses and 62 streets in 1S81 and 4,000 houses in In the last of these conflagrations 34 persons were killed. Numerous orders were Issued by. the differ ent shoguns to prevent the spread of fire3, but for many years no fixed system was in opera tion. AA'henever a fire was seen everyone ran pell mell to help put It out, and the result was the old story of "Too many cooks;" eto.

Shortly after the long sleeve fire mentioned above, four fire companies were organized, anS in 16S3 a fifth was added. Orders were promulgated, in 1711, regarding the conduct of the men at fires, and at the same time A strict law was enacted against incendiarism. In 171S, under the orders of Ooka, who waa one of the ablest of the more modern magistrates of Y'eddo, a new system of fire patrol was established. The householders on each street were ordered to provide a night watch and to furnish at least fifty men in case of fire, as well as thirty to clear away ruins. This system was found to work well, and In 1790 the forco numbered over ten thousand men.

These were divided into ten brigades, each under a leader and each brigade being divided into forty eight companies. Each company had its own motto and standard, called tho "matol." which Indicated the companies' rank and work at a fire. The post ot standard bearer was considered one of honor. At present the men are under the direct control of the metropolitan board of police, and now number only 1.640. having greatly diminished in the past thirty years.

They now consist of six brigades and forty companies. Improved engines have now come into use, and revolutionized the old methods, so that the annual loss by fire Is much less than formerly. The old fire lookouts, which wera once picturesque features of Toklo. have also disappeared, their places having been taken by tall ladders. In former times the Japanese firemen wera men.

not to be despised. They were proud, being closely banded together and refused to bow to tho daimyos" or nobles, as the ordinary citizens" were compelled to do. Now. however, all this is changed and the glory of tha Japanese fireman has departed. FASHION NOTES.

Europe Orient the Old Raider's Grave. the grave of the old hero and is roughly hewn, except for one polished on which is this simple ir.sription: "John Brown's Farm, donated to the people of the state of New York, A. 1S9G." Then follow the names of Kato Field, Henry Clews, and their associates who recently owned the property. Additional exercises were held at the little weather beaten house close by, which was the old hero's home for the last ten years of his life. A reading desk hadbeen prepared on the piazza extension, and there the speakers of the day were assembled.

The prayer was delivered by the Rev. George BrinKhurst, of Philadelphia, who was the first delegate of the United States Christian commission. General Morritt made a brief address as chairman and introduced Colonel Ashley AV. Cole, who, as representive of the governor, accept the girt of the John Brown farm in behalf of the state. Colonel Lyman then followed Colonel Cole, and delivered an historical address on the life and deeds of John Brown, in which he eloquently sketched his stormy and eventful career, his forceful personality and his relations to the anti slavery cause.

The choir then sang "John Brown's Body," in which the people joined. General Merrltt announced after this that Mr. Bppes, an aged colored man who was one of the slaves brought here by the underground railroad, before the war, and his son and daughter, would sing, by request, a favorite hymn of John Brown's entitled: "The Year of ye the trumpet, blow." The song was listened to with much interest. Father Lynch of Danbury, pronounced the benediction, and then six Grand Army veterans, neighbors of John Brown, fired three volleys across his grave. And so the old patriot had the honors of a military funeral nearly two score years after his tragic death Apropos of the placing of the John a valuable and beau souvenir of the old with the Adirondacks Brown monument tlfully Illustrated hero's connection has ine recently been compiled by Kathar Elizabeth McClellan, entitled "A Hero's Grave in the Adlrondacks." It is cleverly writen and gives all the interesting details of the North Elba homestead from the time of its building by John Brown until now.

The book is beautifully illustrated with photographs madeby the author and contains a hitherto unpublished portrait of the hero, which gives a very different likeness of the man from so many of the made up ones. JACKY'S MISTAKE. His Story Would Not Bear the Test of Mathematics. The old well house Is coming into favor again as the season advances. It stands in the middle of the road pathway down the hil'l and almost in the center of the little town.

The three or four large sweet gum trees are disposed around the well, either by nature or by hand, in such a careless fashion that It was the merest accident that there was ever room enough left for the road iAIonument Erected on to got through. Nearly everybody gets water there, as it Is the only well ia tho place, although there are a few prejudiced people who take their buckets and walk past to the foot of the hlil for the sake of spring Jacky AVard sat on the curb In the afternoon and told stories cf adventures to three or tour mtleen. Itls doubtful it they ever heard much that ho was saying, and they believed even loss. In fact, Jacky's narratives are not always cousistent, for whether they are of adventure by Held, forest or mountain bhey are, for one thing, always lo cated on the Mississippi. But he had an earnest and animated way of telling things.

I sifted sewin WGtM. OB' TCiail.M.a5iiiis.'t I a a Ifll mum WfifflM, Ijffl country. It may not, however, be so universally known that after the execution, ot Jonn Brown, the farm was advertised to be sold under foreclosure of mortgage, and, after passing through the hands of indifferent strangers, finally, in 1S70, came to the notice of Kate Field, of AVashington, who interested nineteen capitalists, and organized a syndicate, each member of which, with Kato Field, paid in one hundred dollars and purchased the old farm, which has since been held aa a sort of public park, being anually visited by hundreds, who from curiosity or reverence for 'the old hero, make pilgrimages thither. Of these nineteen members of Dhe John Brown svndlcate who contributed to the fund, but seven are now living. They are Henry Clews, Charles Stewart Smith, Le Grand B.

Cannon. Thomas Murphy, Salem II. AVales, Isaac H. Bailey and George Cabot Ward, all of New York. Henry Clews was made trustee of the property, and It has stood in his name un'til about eight months ago, when it was transferred to the state.

Considerable money had accumulated from the rental of the property and It was de cl'ded that this should be used in the purchase of a suitable monument to be erected near the John Brown grave. It Is not, as may be supposed, a memorial to the old hero, for the family of John Brown desire no other monument than the huge boulder that Is at the head of his grave, and he himself said: "AVTien I die, bury me by the big rock where I loved to sit and read the word of God." It is rather a token ot remembrance from Kate Field, Henry Clews and the other members of the syndicate who bought and kept Intact the farm for the purpose of per petuatlne the memory of the martyr. Colonel Henry H. Lyman, state excise commissioner, presented to the fisheries, forest and game commission a beautiful banner, with the request that It should be displayed upon these historic premises at such times and upon such cccasions as may be deemed proper. In presenting the United States flag, Colonel Lyman writes: That the sta te of Now Tork should forever keep and care for his (John Brown's) home and final restlna place, and thereby perpetuate the wonderful story and memory of this earnest and agrressive devotee of the doot.

lnes of free free speech and free homes, seems fit and proper. His wild and rupsed, yet simple and peaceful restlr.s place, among the Adirondack mountains and lakes, is In keeping with his own fiercely earnest and desperate, yet kind and gentle character. Over the roujjh and lonely but beautiful spot, chosen by this intrepid old man of des tiny as his home and final resting place, It is fitting that the flac of our country should float in commemoration of the life and deeds of one whose Wonderful career made and marked one of the most eventful epochs In American history.
