Proportion Of Deaths by Lightning.

The yearly average number OF deaths
from lightning in Eng land is twenty ,n6
three, or four and four-tenths per 1VO'
900 deaths. AS general rule it seems
that unless persons are killed on the
spot by lightning they recover. A per-
son struck by lightning is more or less
stunned, and deprived of consciousness
for time, often, no doubt, by mere
fright, in which case the effect is tran:
sient; but sometimes in consequence OF
a shock given to the brain, IN when
case there is a certain amount OF paral-
vsis of motion and sensation. The APP
pearances after death of bodies which
have been struck by lightning vary ex-
tremely. Sometimes they retain the
position which they occupied when
struck: while in other cases they may
be dashed to a considerable distance.
Their clothes are often burnt or torn,
and have 4 peculiar singed smell.
Metallic substances about the body pre-
sent signs OF fusion. while such as are
composed of steel become magnetic.

E0Ynfian Agriculture,

Every reader of the Bible is familiar with
its FREQUENT references to Egypt as place so
rich in corn that it not only produced abuD-
dance for its own dense population, but
Welded supplies for expectation tn neighbor-
ing countries Profane history corroborates
these statements Diodorus Siculus bears ex.
plicit testimony to the skill of the farmers of
ancient Egypt. He informs us that they
were acquainted with the benefits of rota-
ton of crops, and were very successful in
adopting these to the soil and the seasons.
The ordinary annual supply of corn furn-
ished to Rome is estimated at 20, 600, 900
bushels From the same author We learn
that they fed their cattle with hay during
the annual inundation, and at other times
tethered them in the meadows on
green clover. Their sheep were shorr
twice annually "a practice common in
several Asatic countries), and their

Catarrh gave perfect satisfaction. enclose

ewes yeaned twice year. For religious as
we'll as economical reasons they were great
rearers of poultry, and practiced artificial
Matching, as at the present day. The abuu-
dance or scarcity of the hsrvests depended
upon the,,heights of the annual inundation. If
too low, much of the land could not be sown,
and scarcity or famine ensued. On the other
hand, great calamities befell the country
when the Nile rose much above the average
level. Cattle were drowned, villages were
destroyed and the crops diminished, as in
such times many of the fields were under
water at the proper seed time. In 1918 a
calamity of this kind took place. when the
Nile rapidly attained hight of 81 feet above
the proper level.

How Germany Treats Spies.

The Paris Mdtin gives its readers the

treatment to which persons arrested as
spies are subjected in Germany: Some
five or six years ago a Belgian subject
was arrested in Germany on suspicion
of being n spy in the pay of the French
government No trustworthy evidence
against him was Forthcoming. and the
charge was sustained merely bv the tes-
timony Of an entirely irresponsible in
dividual. Nevertheless, the accused
was condemned to ten years imprison-
ment. after having already suffered
eight months confinement on suspi-
cion. He has since been 10 all intents

The Southwestern Strike.

The great strike in the southwest
would appear to be as far from settle
ment as ever. Through the efforts of
Grand Master Powderly, Gould was in
duced to reluctantly consent to an arbi
tration of the differences between the
managers of the road and the employees
He afterwards retreated from tins posi-
tion by the qualifying statement that he
was not to be understood that matters
would be arbitratcd, but that he had no
objections to President Hoxie agreeing to
such method of settling the present
trouble. Negotiations were then opened
with Hoxie, who agreed to arbitratc with
the employees of the road, which agree
ment it would appear was made with the
intention of deceiving the strikers and
demoralizing their organization, as he has
since, through the superintendent of the
road, refused to recognize many of the
strikers as employees of the company, Or
to permit them to go to work pending the
arbitration. This evidence of bad faith
on the part of President Hoxie and his
subordlnates leaves the existing trouble
as far from settlement as
ever, and will 60 far towards creating
public sentiment favorable to the strikers.

Picklinr Railroad Ties.

In the early history of the Union Pa
citic, the company treated ties with
preservative process something similar
to the following as described by the
Rawlins Tribune:
The Union Pacific is about to establish
a laboratory, as it were, at Laramie, for
preserving railroad ties by what is
known as the Zinc-tannin process. The
apparatus consists of several iron cylin-
ders six feet in diameter and III feet in
length. An iron track runs through
these cylinders, and cars built on two
foot gauge are run in loaded with ties,
iron doors close up the ends and the
work of treating the ties begins. Each
cylinder will treat 400 ties at one time
and make three runs day, SO that
about 1000 ties day will be turned out
with two cylinders. The works will
give employment to forty laborers and
will be in operation by the first Of May.
The patentee has constructed plant
for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
road, one for the Rock Island, in Chi
cago, and one in st. Louis. The process
is claimed to keep the pine wood from
decaying, though not from suffering
the wear and tear to which soft wood is
liable.

A Doubtful Story.

The New York Times prints the fol-
lowing: 1t was freely declared the other
day by a Wall Street man, who claimed
special knowledge of the matter, that an
official investigation is to be made by
congress of circumstances connected with
means used few years ago by the North
ern Pacific railroad to prevent the for
feiture of that company's land grant 1t
was alleged that several hundred thousand
dollars was spent in Washington, where it
would do the most good. Now one of
the men through whose hands much Of
the "boodle' passed has decided, for some
reason or other, to lay the whole matter
bare. Men of standing are declared to be
involved in the meshes of what may turn
on scandal scarcely less noteworthy than
the Credit Mobelier.
