Proctor's Last Essays.

A series of popular scientific articles, by
the late Prof. Richard A. Proctor, the emf
nent astronomer and author, will appear in
the MORNING NEWS on the dates announced
below
The article in this series upon "Plagues
and Pestilence" was received only the week
before the authors death, and was written
apropos of the yellow fever in Florida.
Indeed, the whole series is Prof. Proctor's
last popular scientific work for newspaper
publication.
They are expected to attract great atten-
ton throughout the whole country, and will
prove a valuable addition to scientific lore
which no one can well afford to lose. They
were obtainable by the MORNING News
only on account of its prominence in the
world of journalism, and have an especial
interest for the newspaper readers of the
southeast
These articles, six in number, are upon
the following topics:

The delegation Of Sioux Indians who left

A slide of land at the wharfboat at Klein
ston, Miss, 100 by l50 feet, caved in and car
ried with it into the river Peyton Harrison,
chief engineer of the Vicksburg Wharf and
Land comnanv Harrison was warned Of
his danger, but replied, 81 is nothing 1t
will slough off as it did before" The bank
soon commenced sinking. Then the railroad
track broke and a carload of cotton on the
wharfboat tumbled into the river. Harrison
went down in a Whirlpool surrounded with
spars, railroad ties and bales of cotton.
President Adams of the Union Pacific, it is
reported, said in Chicago, that he thought
the international law is greatly responsible
for the decentralization in railroad affairs, and
experience has shown that it is not based
upon sound principles. The inability OF
roads to make lower rates on traffic between
large commercial ssl5fes and intermediate
local points, he says has the effect of driving
the business away from the large points, and
the prohibition on pools is leading to q
general consolidation of roads. The weaker
lines, being unable to compete against
stronger lines Gil even terms, will be forced
out of existence and the strong lines will ab-
sorb them.
The latest reports show that, in round
numbers, there are 100000 freight cars IL
service in the country.

A Bird Without q Nest.

The term night-hawk is commonly ap-
Piled to several species, all of which
have certain peculiarlties. From its
curious cry one is called chuck willis
widow, this call being uttered so loudly
by the bird that it has been heard for
nearly a mile. About the middle Of
March they corle back from their winter
pilgrimage; and unlike most of the
birds, they have no housekeeping to
keep them busy, as they build no
nests. While the robbins, humming
birds, thrushes and others are busily
securing the country for material with
which to build their nurseries, the chuck
will's-widow is fast asleep in some out
of.the- way corner, only coming out in
the afternoon and evening to gather its
supply of food. When the time comes
for laying, our seemingly lazy bird
selects some secluded spot and deposits
her eggs anywhere on the ground, and
the very first glimpse, if we are for
tunate in finding them at all, explains
why she builds no nest. The eggs are
almost the exact color of the surround
ings, and so mottled and tinted thai
only by the merest accident are they dis
covered, and when the two little chuck
wilrs-widows come out they are ever
more difficult to find than the eggs.
Being very sleepy little fellows they
rarely move, and, though standing with
in few inches of them, the observer
might suppose them to be two old brown
leaves or bunch of moss, so deceivinG
is their mimicry.

some time young Harris has been an ardent

The young lady, however, did not Iecipro-
cate his love for her. and received his atten-

however. was not in the least discouraged.
He has visited Miss Hammond's home daily
for til past week, but on each visit she treated
him more coldly than before, and finally
when he called again she decllRed 10 sec him.
This maddened Harris and he swore that he
would be revenged. On Wednesday the re.

The Prince Of Wales Spanked.

The following, taken from paper
printed in Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1914,
IS now going the rounds of the press:
Her Majesty, Queen Victoria, accom-
panied by the Prince Consort and the
royal children, visited Scotland for the
first time, and tarried long time on her
way at Balmoral. On the trip the yacht,
in which the people travelled by water,
called at Aberdeen, and, of course, the
loyal inhabitants of that city turned out
in large numbers to do honor to their
beloved sovereign A guard of honor,
consisting of the merchants of the place,
was formed, and. in all the glory of
black broadcloth and white kids,
paraded on the edge of the dock to
which the vessel mOored at just sufficient
distance to prevent people from stepping
on board. Seats were erected on the
bank, tier above tier, like those of a
circus, to accommodate the thousands
that assembled to gaze on the spectacle
of an anointed Queen.
Her Majesty good naturedly remained
on deck to crafty as much as possible
the curiosity OF the bonny Scots, and
promenaded about in full view of the
CEOWus llG IlnCC VI w dlCSy
child of about five or six years, was
with her. Among other things placed
on the deck for the accommodation of
the Queen was costly and very splendid
sofa, ornamented with tassels; and the
Prince, like other boys of that age, being
of destructive turn, began to pull at
one in a manner that threatened to
detach it. His mother observed the act,
and ordered him to desist. He did So
but as soon as her back was turned seized
the tassel again to give another jerk.
The Queen appeared to have expected
something of the kind, for she was at
that moment watching him from the
corner of her eye. In an instant She
turned and seizing the luckless heir ap-
parent of England by the "scruff of the
neck" elevated one of her feet upon the
sofa, hoisted the youugster over her
knee, adjusted him in the position
mutually familiar to parents and chill
dren generally, when such ceremonies
are to be performed, and gave him q
sound spanking.
1t may be proper to mention, en-
passant, for the information of youths
who sometimes find themselves similarly
eircumstanced, that the illustrious
sufferer kicked and bellowed under the
affective dispensation quite as Justify as
boys of lowlier birth are wont to do.
The amazement with which the specta-
tors witnessed the example of royal
domestic discipline may be imagined,
but scarcely described in fitting terms.
A dead silence prevailed for q moment,
hut waa su6denlV broken bV tremen-
dous roar of laughter, which could moi
be suppressed by any thought of dec
Drum, respect for the Queen, or sym
pathy for the victim of her displeasure
The explosion recalled the royal motheI
to sense of her position, and, having
turned toward the crowd for moment
: her face suffused with crimson, sh'
t hastily descended into the cabin, anc
was seen no more by the expectan
populace.

AWFUL DEATH ON THE RAIL.
A Carriage Party Run Over on the Old
COLONY Road.

COlOny IOOdu.
A covered carriage, containing Mr.. How
ard Lowell and his wife and Mr.. Henry
Cowell and wife, all of Osterville, Mass, at
tempted to cross the track near the West
Barnstable station when the engine struck
the carriage, throwing the occupants
on to the track, and smashing. the
carriage to atoms. Mr.. Henry Cowell
was dragged under the cars, and be-
fore they could be stopped he was crushed
into thousand fragments. His remains
were gathered up and covered with the rem
nants of the carriage His wife was picked
up with her right arm cut off just below the
shoulder, and cut and bruised about tA9
body, though how seriously is not known.
Mr.. Lowell and wife were at once conveyed
to a neighboring house. Upon the arrival
of physicians Mr.. Lowell was found to be
breathing his last. Mrs Lowell and Mrs,
Cowel, suffering terrible pain, were etherizsd
and taken to Boston on a special train.
There is no blame to be attached to the rail
road men, for the engine gave the required
whistles, and the bell was ringing for the
crossing when the engine struck the car
riage. 1t seems that the party were on their
way to Sandwich, to attend an entertain
ment given by the G. A. r. post of
that place of which post Mr. Cowell was a
member. Mr.. Lowell was 46 years of age
and served in company E, 4Oth Massachu-
setts regiment, while MIR. Cowell was as
years of age and during the rebellion served
on The U. S. frigate Santee
