HUNTSHUMANSKULLS
Peculiar Hobby Which Occupies
Leisure Time of a Texan.
Hus Visited Many Lands and Coun
tries In Search of the Odd Carlos
and He Has an Interest
ing CoUectlon.
The following advertisement appeared
in the newspapers of St, Joseph, Mo., re
cently;
“Wanted—Human skulls! must be la
good condition; will pay liberally for
fine specimens. Apply Hotel M. Charles
W. Jenkins."
Jenkins was a temporary resident of
St, Joseph, where he has considerable
realty interests, but his real home is In
Corpus Chrlstl, Tex. He has probably
the oddest lad of any collector of curios
who has ever been a resident of that city.
Mr. Jenkins Is very anxious to increase
his collection of skulls, and in the pos
session of medical students, physicians
and colleges of St. Joseph are specimens
taken from various burying grounds
that have keen unearthed In the ex
cavations for buildings on sites that
hundreds of years ago were repositories
for the dead of the ancient red man.
“I have now in my possession 348
perfect specimens of human skulls,” says
Mr. Jenkins. "They represent the hu
man of many ages, and I find them an
Interesting study indeed. How did I
come to Indulge In such a strange fad?
Well, in my youth I made a study of
anatomy, and became Intensely Inter
ested In the construction of the human
frame. I gradually acquired a taste for
this form of bric-a-brac,
“I got my real start as a collector of
skulls In 1887. During excavations In
St. Joseph on property in the possession
of my father several specimens of an
ancient race were exhumed, and
straightway found a resting place upon
a shelf In a cabinet In my home. I vis
ited the former home of the mound
builder In Colorado and New Mexico,
where other sneclmens of the ancient
Inhabitants were discovered. They dif
fer materially from the skulls found In
St Joseph. Then I visited the holy land
In search of specimens. From there I
drifted to the lands of the Ptolemies of
Egypt. Here some valuable acquisi
tions were made. I have tramped over
the Pampas of South America, the moun
tains of Peru and Chill, and even pene
trated into the wildernesses of the Ama
zon, where, in deposits of earth and
stone, I have brought to light perfect
specimens of human skulls, represent
ing periods which history does not
chronicle.
"In my experiments I have found that
some skulls take on a very beautiful
polish, and I must say that, under the
hand of a skilled artisan, they are made
magnificent These specimens occupy a
cabinet by themselves. I have a number
of skulls taken from the wreck of the
Galveston storm. I also have specimens
from other disasters on this and other
continents. Five victims of the Mont
Pelee disaster are represented In my
collection. This business of collecting
skulls Is a great aid in the study and re
tention of Important facts in history. I
have In my possession the skulls of men
at times prominent In the history of
this nation. How I came to have them
I do not care to say. However, money
(s a means of gratifying the tastes of
anyone who cares to make a collection
of this kind. Because I have acquired a
liking for this work, I spend much time
during the winter months wandering
about between rows of grinning heads,
phlllsophizing, after the fashion of the
grave digger In Hamlet, upon the brev
ity of human life.”
“SUICIDE CLUB” FLOURISHES.
Yountc Women of Boise, Idaho, Have
Org an! Ration and Choose
Victim* by Lot.
Boise, Idaho, has a fully organized
suicide club. That it is ready for busi
ness and has already transacted con
siderable business Is shown by the fact
that at least three of its members have
“shuffled off" by the suicide route with
in a period of as many months.
The fact of the existence of the organ
; ijation became known to the police In
an investigation into me aeam ui urac»
Ashton, its latest victim. She died from
morphine poisoning on a third attempt
at suicide, both of her jTrevious attempts
having been frustrated through season
able discovery by friends.
Another young woman friend of Miss
Ashton attempted suicide by taking poi
son, but recovered, and It was through
her' that the existence of the club was
made known. The club Is regularly or
; ganlxed with a strong membership—all
young women—and holds meetings at
i regular Intervals. It transpires that at
each meeting a new victim Is ehoeen by
lot, who Is to “pass off” before the time
for the next meeting by one of the usual
methods adopted in such cases, the par
ticular mode being optional with the can
didate. _
Philippine Positions Wot Wanted.
Positions in the Philippines seem to
go begging. Several months ago Col.
Edwards, chief of the insular bureau.
■; -ailed upon the civil service commis
sion to certify candidates for 150
„ teachers’ positions paying from $-,000
o $900 per annum. There were few
applicants, fewer took the examina
tion and only 42 were found eligible
! tor appointment Another examina
i tion will, therefore, be held early 1
October. The insular bureau will not
permit women to take the examina
k ; for these positions, and the du

MOCCASINS FOR SOLDIERS.
Inquiries Made by Representatives of
Powers at War for “Bangor's
Golden Slippers.”
Inquiries have been received in
Bangor, Me., from persons sup
posed to represent either the Rus
sian or the Japanese government
concerning prices for moccasins
in large quantities and the earli
est date of delivery at Atlantic or
Pacific ports. It is supposed that
the moccasins are wanted for sol
diers campaigning in Manchuria.
For that purpose they would be
eminently suitable, says the New
York Sun.
The moccasin is the favorite
footwear of the lumbermen of
Maine, and was first made in Ban
gor in 1851. At first only one or
two styles were made, but now
moccasins are manufactured in
great variety, ranging from slip
pers for women and children—
soft as kid and embroidered with
beads—to the stout boots and lar
rigans of the Penobscot lumber
men.
Much of the sewing is still done
by hand, being let out by the piece
to French Canadian families in
the neighborhood of Bangor. All
moccasins are made of a specially
prepared leather, rendered a gold
en yellow by a peculiar process of
tanning.
The common moccasin is not
proof against water, but it has
room for several pairs of stock
ings, and that is a strong point in
its favor. For keeping the feet
warm and dry in cold weather the
moccasin has no equal.
The greater part of the mocca
sin leather still comes from the
place of its origin, Pawtucket,
R. I., although a considerable
quantity is tanned in Bangor.
Some years ago Bangor men es
tablished factories at Red Wing,
Minn., and Racine, Wis.
The dainty bath slippers, which
are not really moccasins, but are
made from soft elk skin, are in
greatdemand at home and abroad,
and are especially favored by the
ladies of Japan, to which country
Bangor sends large quantities. It
how seems likely that “Bangor’s
! golden slippers,” as moccasins are
called, may be worn by the con
tending armies in Manchuria.
JAPAN’S FIRST IRONCLAD.
Her Crew Made a Brave Start, Bui
Couldn’t Stop Her Till Fires
Went Out.
That the role of Japan as a mar
itime power ‘is a new one is
brought strongly to our notice by
recalling the quite well authen
ticated story of the first adven
ture of the first Japanese iron
clad, says Country Life.
She was built in England.;
While she was building her crew j
; were also in England practicing,
in other ironclads how to drive
her. When she was finished the
Japanese seamen took possession
of her, bravely maintaining that
they were fully equal to the task
! of starting her.
Ana mar, to do sure, rney were,
for she steamed out finely. The :
trouble only began when she came
back to port again. Then, when j
they wanted to slow her down and
stop her, they were unable to do
so.
They had to put her out to sea
again and go on steaming her
about till her fires went out, her
engines stopped for want of
steam, and she could be towed in.
From this to having the best
mentally-equipped crews, perhaps,
of any nation seems a long step,
but it has been a very rapid one.
Insect Senses.
Naturalists have decided that
many insects have senses which
human beings lack. That of loca
tion, shown by the wasp, for in
stance, is remarkable. One spe
cies builds its nest in a sandbank
that is only a part of several acres
of such soil, and when it leaves in
search of food it covers the nest so
carefully that no ordinary eye
could discover its location. That
is to say it is just like all the sur
rounding location, and yet the
wasp flies back to it without hes
itation and finds it without mak
ing a mistake. There is another
wasp ttat unerringly locates the
eggs of the mason bee under a
thick layer of sun-baked clay, and
deposits her eggs in the same
cells that her young may have
food when they are hatched.
Timber for Cigar-Boxes.
Practically all the timber used
for cigarboxes comes from Cuba.
SCIENTIFIC BILL OF FARE.
A Good, Wholesome Meal Need Coat
No More Than 22 Cents—
An Experiment.
To live luxuriously on 66 cents
a day has been made easy by the
department of domestic science at
Teachers’ college, Columbia uni
versity. Meals at 22 cents apiece
have been prepared, and, what is
more to the point, eaten with ap
parent relish by unbiased per*
sons, says the New York Sun.
In addition, the chemical constit
uents in the food have been care
fully weighed and measured, and
it has been discovered that
enough proteids, fats and carbo
hydrates exist in the 22-cent meal
to support men working with the
customary expenditure of force.
At least, the text-books say that
the quantities are all right.
The manner in which the discov
ery was made is somewhat as fol
lows: Dean Russell planned a
luncheon to some friends, and
thought it would be a clever idea
to have the meal prepared by the
department of domestic science.
The teachers laid out the plan of
battle and the students did the
cooking.
The luncheon was served to six
persons. The total cost of materi
als was $2.02, from which was de
ducted the value of the food not
actually consumed. This brought
thetotal cost down to $1.28 for the
six persons.
This was the menu:
Grapefruit .I .20
Baked haddock .58
Hollandaise sauce .10
Potatoes on the half shell.13
Rolls .17
Butter .08
Pickles .04
Tea .02
Lettuce salad.10
Wafers . .01
Cheese .10
Pineapple Sherbet. 24
Angel cake . 13
Total ...12.02
The food value of the things con
sumed amounted to 6,491 calories.
This made the average amount
consumed 1,081.8 calories. Ac
cording to the textbook prepared
by Mrs. Ellen H. Richards, of the
Boston Science school, only 956.3
calories are necessary to sustain
men and women working moder
ately hard.
Miss M. B. Vail, insructor in do
mestic science at Teachers’ col
lege, who had charge of the lunch
eon, says that 22 cents would be a
fair average for all meals, so that
persons who pay more than
$240.90 a year are doing injustice
to themselves and their pockt
books.
THE BOASTER SUBSIDED.
Drummer Bragged of Getting a Big
Order, Then Was Cleverly Ex
posed by a Joiter.
The habitues of a certain sub
urban hostelry had long been
weary of the boastful chatter of
an intermittent guest of the com
mercial fraternity, and it was
with rare satisfaction that they
fecently saw him annihilated, so
to speak, says the New York
Times.
“Had a splendid day,” he opened
up as usual; “spent an hour in
old Simons’ store over in Rye and
came out with a $2,000 order.”
He produced a notebook in sub
stantiation, as ‘Old Simons’” atti
tude toward gentlemen of his ilk
was well known, and the incredul
ity of his audience was not
masked. The notebook was hand
ed around for inspection and halt
ed with a gray-haired stranger
over in the corner.
“Oh, yet—the entry’s all right
enough,” he said, mildly, “but—
it’s very strange!”
“What’s strange?” demanded
the commercial man of might.
“Wrhv, how it got there. I have
no recollection of giving any such
order, and if you will kindly tell
me which of my employes author
ized it you will be conferring a fa
vor upon me. You evidently don’t
recognize me as Mr. Simons, of the
Rye firm, but—”
But the erstwhile boaster, had
wilted out of sight. His quondam
victims roared with delight.
“I say, that’s rich!” exclaimed
one of them; “it’s worth $50 to see
you take him down like that, Mr.
Simons!”
“I didn’t say I was Mr. Simons,
sir,” returned the meek-looking
stranger; “in fact, I don’t know
the gentleman—any more than
the young man himself did!”
