Chemistry as q Profession.

Chemists as rule receive from one
thousand to twelve hundred dollars a
year. This seems small when we con-
slider to what expense young man
has been put to obtain the necessary
education. Sometimes. however, in a
manufacturing house where he has
made himself particularly useful, a
chemist may receive eighteen hundred
or two thousand dollars, and as super.
tendent of works. he might get five
thousand or ten thousand dollars; but
such cases are very exceptianal. One
reason why salaries are Gmaller in our
]arge CITIES IS said to he found in the
number of competent chemists who
have come from Germany, and who are
willing to work for lower wages than
thier American brethren demand.
When chemist has, after years of
study and long practice, thoroughly
qualified himself in his profession, he
can give what is called "an expert
opinion" This, as Sam Weller might
say, lis an opinion as is much more
valu'dle than an opinion as is not
expert" In lawsuit, far example,
chemists would bs employed by both
sides. and an expert would receive
from fifty dollars day to twenty-five
dollars an hour. II an expert exam,
ined a mine, made a report on tho
formation, and gave his views on the
likelihood of its paying the people who
intended to purchase it, hi would be

the Cape field artillery 81, and the

"Not the American Way.u

Probably no unpl,ysical argument
addressed To- genuine dyRamiters

effect. But words may not be entirely
misapplied when addressed to certain
American politicians who seem at

ward dynamiters themselves, the
aidcrs and abettors of dynamiters, or
the sentimental sympathizers with
such outlaws. The reason for hesita-

Killing Cattle.

The modus operandi Of killing and
preparing cattle at tho stock yards
for the market is described by writer
for the National Live StocE Journal,
who SAYS: Zone man, with good

short range, does the killing. This
has been found the surest, quickest,
and most humane way of extinguish-
ing the life Of cattle by the firms en-
gagged In the business hero. One con-
Germ uses heavy hammer to deal the
death-blows, and few years ago
"spearing" was resorted to. This
was. in appearance at least, very
barbarous practice. A man armed
with a bar of round iron, seven or
eight feet long and sharp pointed at
one end, would take his place over the
narrow chute through which the bull
lock was driven, and plunge the in.
strument into the top of his head, just
back of the horns. severing the spinal
cord. Generally tho spear was effec-
tive, and caused instant death. but in
the case of badly frightened and
FESTIVE beasts it would frequently go
wide of the mark, and MAIN them in
