BivaIves Put in IrOns.
(From the Philadelphia Times.

A number of enterprising Philadel- phians are now experimenting on 9 device which, if successful, will have the effect of making oysters on the half-sheIl as common in Montana, Col orado or Europe as they are in the vicinity of Philadelphia. The device, winch has thus far been successful, IS simply patent lock which keeps the oysters shell closed from the time it IS captured in its watery bed until 1t is opened and set before an eplcure thousands of miles away. It Is sim pie piece of wire twisted tightly around the oysters shell with pair of pin cers and then sealed. This process hermitically seals 5fr. Oyster and pre- vents hlm from 5rearsY.g. On ac, eeant of his nature 1t doesn't result ig sulFvv....vr., tB,.s, on the other hand, it is claimed that tRe oyster is much more delicious than when fresh out of the bed.
 When bivalves are allowed to open their shells, thing they are sure to do after capture when not securely locked up, the ar rushes Tn, evapor- ates small quantity of the liquid, and then the oyster takes the first step toward ruin; that is, he doesn't care what happens, and his recklessness leads him to begin to decay and lose his usual flavor. Close an oysters mouth and he will preserve himself for wesks-three months is the tune claimed. Oysters were recently locked up this way and sent to Denver, Colo, where they were opened and found to be of an excellent faTor.

Memory
TFrnm the.Youth's Companion.I


 Grotius and Pascal forgot nothing they had ever read or thought. Car dinal Mezzofanti, the. linguist who is said to have known a hundred lan- guages, declared he neter forgot a werd he had once learned.
 While Dr. John Leyden, the Orien- talist, was Tn Calsuttas there arose a case which turned on the exact word ing of an act of Parliament. A copy of the act could not be found, but Ley den, having readit before leaving En- gland, made copy from memory.
 Nearly year liter printed copy of the act arrived tom tondon, and it was found to bsfEantical with the transcript LeydenSSd made.
 To friend who congratulated Ley den on hls remarkable memory, he re- piled that he often found it a source of great inconvenience. On the friend expressing surprise, he explained that he often wished to recollect particu- lar expression in something he had read, but could not do it until he had repeated the whole passage from the beginning to the expression he de- sired to recall.
 Valuable as this faculty is when as- sociated with sound understanding and clear discernment, 1t is corrpara- tlvely useless fiji merely retains words and forgets ideas, processes of reason ing, and creations of the imagination.
 Idiots have been known whose mem- ory for names and woEds was so reten- tive that they could repeat sermon verbatim, and indEate where the preacher blew his nose and coughed while delivering it.
 An English clergyman mentions a man who could remember the day of the burial of every person who had died in the parish during thirty-fve years, and could also repeat the name and age of each deceased person and the names of the mourners at his funeral. But so weak was he intel lectually that he could not be trusted to feed himself.
 Dr. Moffat, the distinguished Afr can missionary, and the father-in-law of Dr. Livingstone, once preached a long sermon to crowd of negroes. Shortly after he had finished he saw a number of negroes gathered about a simplerloOking youn E savage. He went to them se- ,. Bed tbatthe savage was preathlIiSA sermon ever again. Not only was he reproducing the precise words, but initiating the manner and gestures of the white preacher.

Doubt Concerning c1cvelands's Candidacy.


 A Washington, D. C., dispatch, of April 4th, to the Globe-Democrat says: The people in Washington who be- lieve that Mr. Cleveland will not be the nominee of the St. Louis Conven- ton IS increasing. In other words, the impression that there will be given out before long positive declaration from the President that he is not d candidate for anothef fterm is gaining ground. Democratic members of Con- gress are beginningR5 think there is something strange gut to happen. They say that the President, in con. verSatlon with the lG'iers of the par ty, speaks freely of the coming cam paign, but never from a personal standpoint. He expresses himself as anxious for Democratic success, but never speaks of himself. If any re- mark is dropped with the intention of drawing him into commitment of his intentions, he studiously ignores it.. There Is not single Senator or Rep resentati1e or party leader who says he knows Mr Cleveland will be can didate for renomination, while there are any number of them who admit that they are mystifed about hls plans, and that they have to take his candidacy for granted in all their talk about a reneminftion. Ex-Senator Barnum, by virtue F his position as Chairman of the NA onal Committee. thought he could 'smoke him out, '" and went to the White House last week with the full determination of getting a decisive expression from the Presidents own lips. He came away batfled, and with an idea tlat he had been snubbed. He was going from here direct to St. Louis to look after the arrangements fer tie Convention, but he was so disguSted with his at- tempt to draw out Mr. Cleveland that he went over to New York to consult with the politicians, and delayed his departure westward several days. Those who believe MT. Cleveland is going to surprise the country with the withdrawal of his name think that the declaration will come from him about the time the States begin to hold their Conventions for the selection of dele gates.

He states that the water in the immense dam at Walnut Grove IS in places eighty feet deep, and covers over a hundred acres of land.

Professor Elisha Gray, has just com pleted an invention which is scarcely less wonderful than the telephone, and which will no doubt do away with the use of the Morse alphabet in telegra- phy. By the proper electric connec- ton the pencil of writer moves sim ultaneously with a pencil at the re- ceiying station, so that the exact hand writing is produced, and even pictures may be drawn at a distance of five hundred miles. This telautograph as it is called will only cost fifteen or twenty dollars and works much more perfectly than the telephone.-Phenix Herald.

yyhas aa Anthem Is.

Speaking of anthems reminds me of the tive old British sailors who were talking over shore experience. One had been to cathedral and heard some very fine music, and was descant- ing particularly upon an anthem which gave him much pleasure. His shipmates listened for a while and then said: "I say, Bill, what's an an- them?'' "What?" replied Bill, "do you mean to say you don't know what a hanthem is?" Not me-" "Well, then I'll tell yer: If I was to say to yer: Ere, Bill, give me that and spike, that wouldn't be a hanthem But was I to say: Bii!- Bill-BiIl--- giv-giv-giv me, giY ws that-Blll, I.if me, give me tAst ,:and, giv me that-that hand spiks-spiks, Bill, glv-give me that thst hand H,sand- spike, hand-handspike, spike, spike, ah-mon, ah-men: Bill give me that handspike, spike, ah-menl why that would be a banthem."

Steam stamps are new all the rage in Montana. They strike harder and faster than ordinary stamps. The stem of each stamp works in a steam cylinder as piston works III the cyl lnder of an ordinary engine, the whole standing in a vertical position. Long ago Col. B. D. Boyle made 8 stamp do good prospecting work. He merely put stamp on the end of an ordinary BurleIgh drill and set it to hammer ing away. The Montana papers speak of the steam stamp as late invention. It is the same thing as the steam ham mer, which is an old invention. The Anaconda Company, at Butte City, have adopted the steam stamp; also the Homsstake and other companies in the Black Hills. It Is claimed that one steam stamp will do more work than twenty ordinary stamps. If.this is so, ores of very low grade may be proftably worked. It is easy to see that very rapid blows may be struck by steam stamp-as rapidly as the blows of a drill. By the present plan it has always seemed as though the steam was long way from where the work was being done.-Ex.

.'The Cour, Bone Her Besi."
CAtIanta Constitution


 CoWeta county had a newly elected Justice named Johnson, full of wise saws and modern instances. Bill Jones was sued in his Court. It was his first case. On trial-day defendant appeared with his counsel, Colonel Sims, and filed plea of payment, con cluding: "Wherefore the defendant now says that he Is ready to verify and prove, etc." This done, he moved for continuance on the ground that his witness te prove the plea was ab- sent, fully meeting all the require ments of the law. The Court listened patiently until he ended, then said ts the lawyers: "Leok here, Squirs, didn't your client jess file his plea and swore to hit? I'm agyine to read to yer: Wherefore, he says. I am ROW ready to verify, etc. Now he swears he ain't ready. Squire, am going to hold him to his first affidavit" In spite of the counsels remonstranees he did, and entered judgment against the defendant. A certiorari was ap- piled for, granted and served. HaY- ing learned he had made a mistake; he answered admitting the truth, but excusing himself in the cohclusion: 'That owing to the self-justifeation of the lawyer and the harrangue of ju- risprudence the Court done her best.

An old Leap Year Law.
(Globe-Democrat.l

Our leap year statisticlans have brought to light curious old Scotch law, of 1928, which runs in these words: During the reign of her blessed Majestic Magaret, each maiden ladie, of both high and low degree, shall have liberties to speak to. the man she likes. If he refuses to take her to be his wife he skall be muletin the sum of G10O, or less, as his estate may be, except and always if he can make it app hs is betrothed to another wom then he shall be free. A right smart pinster with a horse and go-eart ought to be able to speak to at least a score of eligible bachelors in the course of year, at an average of say f20 head, and a possible hus- band in the batch. This would not make a bad investment of the time and labor. The trouble would be that in time there would be no bachelors left. The law might be termed a statute for the encouragement of old maids and the eradication of old bach elors. He must be sorry chap that should be skipped in such hunt.

Five thousand children gathered on the White House grounds April 2d to celebrate the peculiar Washington custom of Easter-egg rolling, Each group brought a basket of cOlored hard-boiled eggs. The fun consisted in rolling the eggs down the grassy slopes until the shells cracked. Then the eggs were eaten with bread and butter and other aceompaniments. The school closed to permit the celbration of this custom, the origin of which is rather in doubt

A p1TpER FLOOD.

The letter from Rome in to-day's TRIBUNE
relates facts concerning Italian immigration
which demand serious attention. 1t appears
that this country is threatened with flood OF
pauper labor under circumstances which call
for active measures of resistance. Our CORE
spondent states that the collapse of the great
building speculation at Rome has thrown
great swarm Of unskilled laborers out OF work |;
that their indulgence makes them dangerous to
the Government; and that the latter, to save
itself, is shipping them by the thousand to the
United States; in plain terms, dumping them'
like rubbish, upon American soil. Or course,
an immigration so urged is most undesirable
The Door wretches who from starving In the
streets of Rome are set down penniless in the
streets Of Newly ork and other American cities
can only swell the already Oyercrowded ranks
Of the proetariat. Too helpless to choose EN-
ployment, unable to seek it in the interior,
thew must accept whatever offers or beg or
steal and in any case they are hindrance
and not help to progress. Of course, the ltal-
ian Government is not justified in sending this
army of paupers to us, and, of course, such an
immigration must not be permitted to con-
time.
Tho ltallan government evidently cares
nothing as to what becomes of its subjects when
once they have been shipped off. 1t is as evil
IDENTIFY quite willing to transfer the response
bility of them to our shoulders. The United
States however, cannot be made the dumping
ground of Europe. 1t has no means by which
to metamorphose a horde of ignorant paupers
into intelligent, self-sustaining citizens. 1t
welcomes all immigration which takes reason
able forms. 1t opens its arms to vigorous work.
ers who are able to support themselves while
they are looking for employment. But it can
not undertake to dispose of problems which
have proved too hard for European Govern
ments, nor can it expose its own people to the
competition of multitude of unskiled la
borers whose indulgence and ignorance together
put them at the mercy of all who are greedy
enough to beat them down to starvation wages.
Clearly the United States Government is bound
to protest against this pauper flood, and to warn
Italy that the forced immigration now under
way will be stopped on this side There is no
other means of meeting the case, and fort
unatey the laws of Congress already enacted
will suffice to stop the influx of irresponsible
immigrants, provided they are honestly and
efficiently administered
