Turn about is Fair Play.

A Cat which had just settled herself
between the sheets for a nap was aroused
one night by howls and yeowls on the
roof of shed near by.
"For the land sake! but what is thatr'
she exclaimed as she rose up on end.
The howls continuing, she got out of bed,
raised the window, and called out:
''In the name of mercy, what is want
ed and who are you?'
"rm Free Citizen" was the reply
"But why those howls?''
''I'm singing. Fact is, I'm serena
ding YOU"
.sBut l don't want it. Go away or I'll
iniure you for lifen'
But the man refused to move foot.
Hair brushes, bootjacks, water pitchers
and bed steads were heaved at him in
quick succession, but he lodged each
missile and continued to sing until the
Cat cut her throat in desperation.
Moral: Turn about is fair play, and
the chance is sure to COME Detroit

The Heat in the COmstock Lode.

At late meeting of the National Acad:
emy OF Sciences in New York City, G..
r. Becker, of the United States Coast
Survey, spoke on the cause of the in
tense heat in the Comstock lode. The
temperature is not abnormal until a
depth of one hundred feet is reached. At
500. feet it is much higher than in most
other mines, and at 1000 feet the ther-
mometer stands at 100 degrees Fahren-
helt, SO that if a miner steps in a puddle
OF water it is though he scalded his foot
in pail of boiling water and if a drop
OF water falls on his flannel shirt it raises
blister. The latest of many theories
advanced to account for this intense heat
is that it is caused by chemical action in
the kaolization of feldspar. Mr.. Becker
said that he had experimental with the
rocks by pulverizing a small mass and
heating it with steam in boiler for six
weeks in succession, but he found no
change. Furthermore, he could find in
the Comstock lode no feldspar, and only
very small quantity of kaolin, so he
was compelled to doubt the truth of the
new theory. The rocks are decomposed
in the lower levels of the lode rather than
on the surface, and so probably it was
the result of volcanic action. Observa-
tions had been carried to $500 feet be.
low the surface, and indications are that
the source of heat is over two miles.

level, and is to be compared in nature

Stray Freight.

ffee fress yesterday of man employed
IN the lost freight department of one OF

item, but it would be as much as nv
situation is worth to tell of our methods.
Ihey are very strict in their orders
against giving reporters items.'
The work must be very intricate and

"How far away from the shipping or
receiving point has lost freight at last
been recoveredpn
thousands of miles. For instance. last
September a package was shipped from
Grand Rapids to Detroit, and was lost en-
route. Yesterday we received notice
that 1t had been found at Boston and
would be sent here immediately"
''How can such errors occur?''
MANY ways. The marking may be
indistinct and incomplete, shipping bills
are often incorrect; and now, for in
stance, spent nearly four weeks last
August looking for case of shoes to at
last learn they had never been shipped
from the factory
Don't you ever find mistakes the
other way? That is. don't YOU find
freight on hand not down on the shipping
bills?''
"fes.. Ihave just such case before
me. A barrel of goods has been re-
celved at Adrian, the address of'the con-
slgnee being all right, but nothing to
indicate who sent it. We must find out
who sent it, and the letters &c. K. b.,

inquired OF G. K. Burnham & Co., but
they know nothing of it,
" How do you trace all these facts so
accurately?

records. Each station agent and ware
house man must be ready to at once give
an account of every article which he has
received or sent away" ~
" Suppose thing is stolen en- route,
how do you locate the scene of the rob-
bery?''
"There are great MANY ways in
which we learn the truth. AS for exam
pie, notice was received at this office the
other day from firm in Peoria, Ill.,,
stating that they had received case OF
shoes which had been broken open and
four pairs of shoes taken out. Each
railroad company has leaden seal which
must be broken before apackage can be
opened, and by tracing the seals we
found that the breaking open of the box
took place either before it reached the
depot in this city or after it was taken
away from the depot at Peoria By
further tracing it was at last learned that
the shoes were stolen by truckman at
Peoria'
" But supposing freight LOADED car,
on side track, is broken into
at night?'' ...
"Well, that is the easiest kind of short. |
age to trace. We have just succeeded,
in conjunction with all the other roads in |
this city, in discovering large leakage
in the vicinity of the Detroit 4 Milwau-
kee q Grand Trunk Railroad junction,
and while we know that the thieves live
IN the northeastern part of the city we
have not yet located them personally"
