Extraordinary charges have been
laid against Dr. henry C. Meyer, well
known in Chicago, Toleda, Detroit and
other American cities. .He has been
arrested in Detroit on a charge of hav-
ing committed five murders, and by
that means having robbed life insur-
ance companies of large sums. The
plan which he and his wife are said to
have adopted, was to secure a simple
girl as a nurse or companion and in-
duce her to have her life insured under
a fictitious name, as a relative of the
doctor, naming him as the beneficiary.
This being done, : the girl was slowly
poisoned and the claim for insurance
presented. In order to operate safely,
the man assumed a different name in
each city. The arrest has caused a
great sensation in Detroit.

It appears that the burning of the
cold storage building at the World's
Fair was the, result of gross .careless-
ness. 'he chimney connected with
Elib fuifnate-Wag surrounded -bra -fancy
tower, ,composed of pine scantg, lath
and staff,. and�the cap of it was actually
five or six feet above the chimney.
The situation was worse; if anything,
than if the top of the chimney itself
had been constructed of inflammable
material. The intention was that the
chimney should be carried up even
with the top of the tower. and the
woodworx of the latter so protected by
asbestos that there would be no danger
of the tower catching fire from sparks
from , the chimney. But it was. never
more than an intention. Every fire-
man knew the condition of the build-
ing. It was talked of every day, and
the captain of the brigade referred, to
it less than an hour before the fire.
The correspondent of the New York
Herald says the building had already.
been fired three times.

The destruction by fire of the Hercu-
les cold storage warehouse, at the
World's Fair, accompanied as it was
by a deplorable loss of life, has a direct
nterest for Canadians in its effect up-
on the horticultural and other exhibits
made by the bominion and Provincial
commissions. Upp,, to date the splendid
Ontario fruit exhibit which Commis-
sioner Awrey has been enabled to
rrrake, has been one of the, best advert-
isements of our country's capabilities
that has ever been published to the
world through the medium of an in-
ternationalexhibitioh.. Its great effect-
veness has in great part been brought
tibout byreserving in that silt -fated
flre-trap ofanice-box, the cold storage
warehouse in the park, sufficient quan-
ties of fruit and vegetables of last
years growth to make a complete and
continuous display from the opening
of the fair, Of the apples there were
yet enough to have two full set -outs
on the tables and shelves, That would
have lasted another month, when the
harvest apples, would begin to arrive.
Strawberries, gooseberries and cur-
rants have been corning from Ontario
now for the last few weeks, and have
helped materially to freshen up the'
exhibit.

again, in performing this feat, 'which

tion with you, no matter how foreign

Maier, no Matter how long it may be,
' fter hearing it once, he will commence
and write the sentence verbatim, start-
ing at the last letter of the last word,
andfinishing with the first letter of
the first word. It seems to be natural
to him to invert his mind in his work,
for he never falters or stops to think,
hit writes as rapidly as a person writ-
ing in the ordinary wavy. "I acquired
this in aeculiar manner," said Maier.
"While 1�was a ciek in agrocery store
in Saxony., r wad?:ail ambitious sort of
ahoy, and always wanted to do every-
thing ,different .from every person else.
When the customers came to me for a
bill I would idace the billhead in an in-
verted positron in front of me and
make the bill out backwards, as I have
written for you, I came very nearly
being prosecuted for practising witch-
craft. Many people assigned this
power to the witches. Then the Spirit-
ualists came to me and told me I was
controlled by a wonderful mind. .A1 -
though I could not explain it by any
other theory than that it was a con-
centration of my mind, I at last per-
suaded them that there was nothing
supernatural in it. I am not able to
perform the feats I used to when I was
younger. I am getting old now and
my memory is not so good as it used to
be. My eyesight is pretty near gone.
I can't see very much. In looking at
you I see it is a form, and know that
you are a human being because you
speak to me. but I couldn't see my
writing if I didn't use a blue pencil. It
seems to be the only color that I am
able to see. That is the reason I use it
all the time." The old man started to
write a long sentence which was given
him. When be began he said: "While
I am writing this I want you to talk to
me, for it seems to make my work
easier. You need not be afraid of an-
noying me. I could be writing a dis-
cussion on theology and at the same
time carry on a conversation with you
on the financial situation, and it would
not bother me at all."—Pittsbugh Dis-
