-Zigzag lightning is a vertible spark

Some of the European astrono-
mers remark upon the fact, as recently
observed by them, of the increased
twinkling of stars when there is dis
play of the aurora berealis; the increased
scintillation is also seen all the more
clearly on winter than on summer
nights, and the phenomenon is more
apparent when stars in the northern
region are observed. 1t is thought that
the effect is not due to the direct in1u-
ence of the electro magnetic light of
the aurora on the scintillation itself, but
rather to disturbances-prob acool-
ing-which coincide with the appear.
ance of the aurora in the upper region
of the air traversed by the star rays.

Too Much for Him.

A well-known druggist who is located
near the corner of Woodward avenue
and Montcalm street was called to the
telephone the other day and requested
to send a barber to the house of sick
friend. who desired to be shaved. Turn
told his clerk to step out and senu
tonsorial artist to the number in ques-
ton. AS the druggist is a man of few
words, and his clerks are trained to
obey, this one asked no questions, but
started out, went into Davey's picture
store next door and said:
s.They want an artist at - Edmund
street, in hurry
"What for?" sung out the proprie-
tor.
"Don't know! Maybe it's to hang
pictures," responded the youth, and re-
turned to his duties.
"Hang such messages" growled the
proprietor, and sent off one of his busiest
draughtsmen with all the implements OF
his trade. When he reached the house
he was expected, and was ushered at
once into the presence of the sick man,
a gruff invalid, who curtly asked him If
he had brought a sharp razor?
"Razor!' calculated the astonished
artist, 'sno, but I've brought hammer
and some picture cord!"
There were explanations, and the sick
man was angry and the "artist" dis
gusted, and it was not until he went
back to the druggist and the matter
was investigated that an understanding
was arrived at. Then a stonsorial
artist was sent off in haste to do the
shaving, and the discounted clerk was
promised pocket dictionary to help
him embellish his understanding

BANDITS boarded Texas & Pacific
train at Ranger, Eastland County, Texas,
the other morning. The conductor noticed
some rough looking men climbing upon the
engine and ordered them off. AS he did so
a pistol was put TO his face and he was told
TO march out on the platform. The engineer
and fireman were similarly marched out and
corraled. The colored porter, however, es-
capped and aroused three rangers on the
train in anticipation Of a robbery. They
bers placed the captive officials between
them and the rangers and opened fire on the
latter. The rangers fired sparingly, for fear
killing the officials. In the midst OF the
shooting one of the robbers bounded into
the Texas express car. mistaking it for
the Pacific express, in whicni the mail is
carried, and ordering the messenger to ele-
vate his hands went through his package,
getting only $500. This done he jumped
out on the opposite side, firing a farewell
shot at the rangers. AS he did so the men
who were standing off the rangers began to
retreat, covering the engineer, conductor
and fireman with their guns, making them
follow and stand between them and the
rangers until they were out Of reach. Forty
or fifty shots were fired, and the only per-
son lit was the telegraph operator, whose
hand was scratched. The robbers were five
in number, the oldest one not appearing to
be over IS years.
