HORSE KILLED by A RATTLEsNAKE.

HORSE KILLED BY A RATTLEsN AXE.
Jacob Brunt, of st: Augustine,
Cambria county, lost a horse the other
day from rattlesnake bite. Ho was
driving to this city with q load Of
lumber, and in the vicinity OF the
Buckhorn, he encountered large rat
tlesnake in the road, but not observ-
ing it in time to stop the team. The
snake in passing under the, horses fas-
tened its fangs in the leg OF one of
them, and subsequently disappeared
in the underbrush before it could be
killed. He drove on to the city the
horse giving no evidence of any serious
injury, but on his return homo the leg
of the animal began to swell, and the
horse soon dropped over dead. 1t was
valued at $lS0.-Tfibtme.

A Duel With Axes.

WELDON, y. g., October l2.-lntOr.
nation has just been received here of a
most cold-bloOded murder, committed
in Northampton county, n. c., a few
days since. Ransom Harris, aged II
years. and James Ingram, aged 10
years, both cOlored, went into the woods
together to cut wood. While thus en-
gagged the two boys became involved in
a quarrel, during which the younger
threw an axe ut Harris, but missed his
aim. Harris then threw his axe at In
gram, striking him on the head and
killing him instantly. Harris was ar
rested and brought before Magistrate
and sent on for murder.
Joseph Green, an OLD German, fell
from the stone bridge over Limestone
creek, III Milton, the other night, and
was injured so badly that he died in a
short time. The place where he fell
over has been considered dangerous for
some time, ds part Of the wall that eX-
tends above the roadway is broken
down. Before he died Mr.. Green de-
tailed how he happened to fall over the
wall. He was stopped by a stranger,
who inquired the way to the post Office.
After giving him the desired informa-
tion Mr.. Green, in turning around in
the dark, fell Several years ago his
wife fell down stairs and broKe her

Joe Magee, hunter, lives at StCne-
ham, in the oil region. The other day
he went to look for deer He had killed
one, and was strolling along slowly,
when all at once he was startled and
surprised at hearing something come
tearing through the bushes towards
him. He had no time to calculate on
what was coming, for, before he could
raise his gun, big buck jumped over
some bushes and landed not ten teet
away from him. The deer then saw
the man for the first time, and endeav-
! cred to turn his course. In doing so
he stumbled and partially fell. Mr..
| Magee, who is strong, active man,
being too close to the animal to shoot,
stabbed the barrel Of his gun into his
side, just back of his fore legs, and the
deer fell dead almost instantly Ma
gee says he did not expect to kill the
animal, and stabbed him with the gun
more in self-defense than anything
else. The rifle barrel, being small
passed through the deer's skin and
probably penetrated his heart.
In all towns where a newspaper Is
published, every person who does a
business should advertise in it, even if
it is nothing more than card, stating
the name and the business he is sengag
ed in. 1t helps to sustain the paper
and lets the people at d distance know
that the town is full of business peo-
pie who take a pride in their town, if
not in the sentiment of the paper. Nc
matter how small the business, an ad-
Yertisement will always extend it. Show
us a person who is a constant advertis-
er in his local town, OF county paper.

Standing Armies of Europe.

There can be little question that the
present PROSTATE condition of CONT
mental trade is IN great measure due to
the enormous burdens laid on the peo-
pie by the military policy of their rulers.
How heavy these burdens are some de-
tails taken from a report lately issued by
the Hungarian Ministry will show. Ac-
cording to this report (the object OF
which is to exhibit the relative weak
ness of the AustrO- Hungarian forces aud
advocate an addition to them), the mil
itary strength of Russia consists of s.
DAG, 800 men, of whom 100, 900 belong to
the reserve and 2, 446, 800 to the stand
ing army. The regular army of France
comprises 1868, 900 soldiers of all arms,
the territorial army 1,208,O 900; total, q,
2S9, 000,tO be increased in 1892 by the adj
dition of 800, 200 reserve men to 2,723,-
600. The German power OF all classes
is represented by 2,004,30 men, of
whom 1,076, 200 belong to the standing
army, 3O7 200 to the landwehr, and
go, 800 to the reserve. Italy has an
army of 69S,000, and militia of 310,-
600. In 1892, when the reserve will
number LOG, POO, her total strength
viii reach 1924, POO. Austro-Hungary
possesses 4 standing army of 100000, n
landwehr of 299, 31S, and a reserve of
$4,000 men total, 1,194, 1913. The grand
total of all these forces amounts to 49,
All, 91S, the standing armies alone num-
bering 7.925,000. But it must not be
understood that all the latter are now
under arms; at least half of them are on
furlough. They form the first line, and
all would, of course, be at once called
out in the event of a general war. 1t is
nevertheless true that the great military
powers have at their disposal 16,000,0 900
men who have learned, or are now learn
ing, the soldiers art, and are bound to
re-enter the ranks when required. The
mind refuses 10 grasp the full signifi-
canoe of these portentous figures; but
it may safely be affirmed that, so long
as these bloated ornaments are suffered
to exist, Europe can count neither on
lasting commercial prosperity nor on a
long continuance of peace Genera

USEFUL AND SCIENTIFIC.

PHOTOGRAPHS IN NATURAL COLORS.
Captain Abney, the well known En-
glish photographer, has succeeded in
obtaining pictures of the solar spec
trum in its natural colOrs, both on silver
plates and on compounds of silver held
in place by collodion. The photographs
are produced by oxidation of silver
compounds when placed in the spec
trUm, the cOlOring matter being due APP
parently to a mixture of two different
sizes of molecules of the same chemical
composition, one of which absOrbs at
the blue end and the other at the red
end of the spectrum; and the sizes of
the molecules are unalterable while eX-
posed to the same wave-lengths as those
by which they were produced. Captain
Abney believes that the colors may be
preserved unchanged when exposed to
ordinary daylight. He has thus sue
ceeded in explaining the action by
which Becquerel some years ago OBJ
tanned photographs in cOlOrs as pro-
duced by oxidation, and not due to in
reference. Becquerel's photographs
were fugitive; Captain Abney appears
TO have succeeded in ''fixing'' his. An
exposure of two minutes with a wide
slit was sufficient to produce the pictures
of the spectrum.
FRENCH METHOD OF FLOORING.
The improved method of laying down
floors which has been adopted in France
is, it appears, obtaining a wide applica-
ton. The plan consists in simply put
ting down the flooring, not, as COM
monty, on jOistS, but in imbedding the
boarding in asphalt-such floors as these
being found particularly adapted, among
other examples, for the ground stories
of barracks, hospitals, churches, court
houses, etc. According to this method,
pieces OF oak, usually two and one-half
to four inches broad, twelve to thirty
inches thick, are pressed down into
LAYER of hot asphalt not quite half an
inch thick in the well known herring
bone pattern. To insure a complete adj
hesiOn of the wood to the asphalt, and
obtain the smallest possible joints, the
edges of the pieces of wood are planed
down beveling toward the bottom, so
that their cross sections becomes wedge
like. Nails, of course, are not neces-
sary, and a perfectly level surface may
be given to the flooring by planning after
the operation of laying down. Some of
the advantages of this flooring, which
| only requires an even bed on which to
rest, are the following Damp from be-
! low and its consequence, rot, are pre-
vented; floors may be cleaned quickly
and with the least amount of water, in
surfing rapid drying; vermin have no
/ opportunity to accumulate in the joints !;
| and unhealthful exhalations from the
soil can not penetrate through.

Ten Thousand Miles for Husband.

From WATERFOWL, n. Y, to Australia
is long and weary way-ten thousand
miles or more-but young woman has
had the courage to set out alone on the
journey, and she is a servant-girl. A
gentleman who was well-to-do fell in
love with her and offered to marry her,
but she would not believe that he meant
what he said. One day in August year
ago he told her that his physician had
advised him to seek the sunshine of
Australia in order to regain his failing
health He said he had great faith in
the balmy climate of the distant island,
and he told her that he had decided to
90, but he could not start without first
being bound 10 her by that bond which
g no man shall put asunder.n He said
they would be married and then he would
journey with light heart to his new
home, which he would put in readiness
for her. To this proposition Fannie
finally yielded, but after the clergyman
had arrived she thought that possibly
this would not be the wisest course, and
Just as the knot was about to be tied she
demurred. She then and there pledged
her love to him, but instead OF marrying
him told him to go first to Australia,
and after the arrangements for her COM
fort and happiness had been completed
there, if he still loved her, to send for
her and she would go to him. After a
long voyage, he arrived safely. The
climate proved congenial to his health.
He saw that he would like the people,
and that home among them would be
pleasant. He had not forgotten the
promise that was made to him in Water
town, and when every thing came
around to suit him he sent for the girl.
She was faithful 10 her promise, and
they were married at Sydney, n. S. w,
on Oct. 81.

and assimilation takes place, and has
the ultimate result of separating the
pure food-stuffs from the useless con-
comitants The latter bodies are re-
jected at once, but the food-stuffs are
taken up with his veins, Incorporated
with the blood (Which consists of food
in different degrees of combustion) and
used for building up the various portions
of his body. Surprising the animal
were a mere growing object like crys-
tai, with no work to perform and no
consequent waste of material, the
process would stop here, and the crea-
ture would wax bigger and bigger from
day to day, without any alteration in
place or redistribution of assimilated
matter But the animal is essentially
locomotive machine, and the purpose
for which he has taken in his food is
simply that he may use it up in produc-
ing motion. For n while he slows it
away in his muscles, or lays it by for
future use as fat; but its ultimate desti-
nation in every instance is just as truly
to be consumed for fuel as is the case
CINE. The food, however, only
gives us one-half of the necessary
materials for the liberation of dormant
energy. Oxygen is needed to give us
the other half. This oxygen we take in
whenever we breathe. Animals like
fishes or sea-snails obtain the necessary
supply from the water by means of gills /;
for large quantities of oxygen are held
in solution by water, and the needs of
such comparatively sluggish creatures
are not very great. With them a little
energy goes a long way. Air-breath-
ing animals like ourselves, on the other
hand, need relatively large quantities of
the energy-giving gas in order to keep
up the constant movements and high
temperature of their bodies. Such crea-
lures accordingly take in the oxygen by
great inhalation, and absorb it in their
lungs, where it passes through the thin
membrane of the capillaries, or very
tiny blood vessels, and so mixes freely
with the blood itself Thus we have
food, supplied to the blood by the stom-
ach, the exact analogue of the coal in
the engine; and oxygen supplied to the
blood by the lungs, the exact ana
logUe of the draft in the engine. When
ever these two substanees-the hydro
| carbonaceous foods and the free oxygen
-reunite, they will necessarily give out
heat and set up active movements

NEW ZEALAND has for some time suf-
fered from an over supply of rabbits
which have eaten up the growing crops
with comparative immunity. But a
short way with the depredators has at
last been happily discovered. BY aid of
an ingenious machine carbonic oxide gas
is introduced into the burrows, after all
the holes have been carefully stopped.
The rabbits are soon in the condition of
the Arabs whom the French smoked in
their caves. In few seconds a great
hubbub is heard inside, but this quickly
subsidies. The burrow is dug open after
a short time, when the dead bodies of
the rabbits are found huddled together
in a corner.
