NERvlNG FOR THE STRUGGLE.
Strikers Are More Confident Than
Ever of Success.

There were no new developments
yesterday at the strikers headquarters,
and the situation there was practically
unchanged since Saturday night. The
executive committee and the strikers
hanging about the place were even
more confident of success than
before, however, through the COM
pany's failure to attempt to move
cars yesterday morning, as they had
announced that they would do. 1t Is

a sensation by confessing that he shot

HURON, S. D., April 15.-The defense
finished its testimony in the Flaherty
murder trial to-day, and evidence in re-
buttal is now in progress. There is no
question as to Flaherty's sanity in the
mind of the public, and the rebuttal is
taking the wind out of the epileptic
mania theory by which it was hoped to
save Flaherty's neck. For the first
time the accused takes lively interest
in the proceedings. The crowd to-day
is the smallest since the trial began,
and the jury is evidently becoming
weary.

THE PIGS IN GLOVER.
Curious Scientific Origin of Popular and
Amusing Puzzle.


The pigs in Glover puzzle had a
rather curious scientific origin. A
student in physiological psychology
named Martenfeldt, while making
researches in some determinations
of the sensativeness of the tactile
sense under the direction of Helm
hOlzt, the great German investigator,
found that the ability to balance a
marble on perfectly smooth piece of
plate glass depended upon the delicacy
of what is known as the reaction time,
that is, depends upon the quickness or
the nerve current in receiving the i'm
preston that the marble will roll,
sending the impression TO the contrOll-
ing organs in the cerebellum that con-
tract or relax the muscles of the arm,
and the degree Of responsiveness in
the nervous end organs of the fingers
which hold the piece of glass. Marten-
feldt found that if he placed the marble
in the center of the plate and marked
four or five spots on the edges of the
plate. and then asked the subject with
which he experimental to tip the plate
so that the marble would run across a
particular spot, a considerable time
elapsed before the subject could de-
termine how to tip the plate to make
the marble roll as required. When
Martenfeldt completed the apparatus
and placed rings of pastebOard about
the center of the plate, with holes for
the marble to run through, the average
result of his experiments gave a re-
makable psychological law. This was
that the reaction time depended
upon the size of the circles of paste
board which made an impression upon
the field of vision of the retina, and
was in direct proportion to the diameter
of the circles expressed in millimeters.
Martenfeldt's experiments developed
the fact that effects of practice and at
tention diminish the psycho-physical
reaction; time and fatigue increases it.
Thus he found that the will time neces-
sary for choice between two motions
was reduced by practice, for three sub
jects of experiment from .OSO second to
$50, from .097 second to .0535,
and from .098 second to .062 respect
lively. For choice among five and ten
possible motions the effect of practice
was yet more marked; thus with five
possible choices. the will time Of one
person was reduced by practice from
.239 second to .0S3; and of another.
with ten possible choices, from 1853
second to .094. For each single days
series of experiments the time dimin-
ished faster at first than subsequently,,
but in mani cases more distinctly on
the second than on the first day of ex-
pertinent. The apparatus used Dy
Martenfeldt for his experiments got or

way. Martenfeldt sent one of his

BLANKER'S MISTAKE.
He Acts as Chief Mourner at the Wrong
Mans Funeral.

A week or more ago a gentleman
whom we will call Mr.. Blank died, and
the time and place of his funeral were
announced in the papers. Another
gentleman, whom we will call Banker,
saw the notice and said to himsslf:
Dear, dear, my old friend and
benefactor is dead. | knew he was in
Washington and intended to call on
him, but now it is too late" And he
censured himself for his neglect of the
man who had been his friend when he
sorely needed friend.
Tortured by his conscience he sought
to make up as best he could for his
fault. He sent the most magnificent
floral piece he could buy and, on the
day of the funeral, was one of the most
demOnstrattve of the mourners.
After the casket had been lowered
into the grave and the ceremonies were
at an end the repentant Mr.. Banker
turned with tears streaming from his
eyes and said to gentleman walking
beside him toward the carriage:
Il am almost heartbroken at the loss
of my dear old friend"
WAS he relative?" asked the other
compassionately.
No, but we went all through the
war together and he was my best
friend and benefactOr afterward."
There must be some mistake" said
the gentleman Mr.. Blank was not
in the army. He has been in this coun-
try only a few years.
The duece you say said Banker,
forgetting his grief; then, by thunder,
I've been chief mourner at the wrong
mans funeral" And he straightway
looked up his old friend, who was in
excellent health. 1t cost Banker a
good deal for flowers. but that isn't
to what it has since cost
him for wine.-Washington Post.

YaRM AND EIRESlOE.

Cold tea is the best thing with
which TO clean grained wood. Never
use ammonia for this kind of work.
Much of the success in growing root
crops depends upon keeping them clear
of weeds. Cultivate often; also the
later corn. II there are no weeds a
light soil is an excellent mulch in a dry
time.
-Pig-pens in summer are an abomi-
nation. Thousands of pigs are kept in
them at, loss, or with a doubtful
profit, when with a small outlay for
suitable fencing, they could have the
benefits of grass and ground. and do
better and make meat far more palata-
BILE.
There is always plenty to be done
in destroying insect pests that injure
the fruits and vegetables in the orchard
or garden. Whatever means are en-
ployed care should be taken to do
thorough work from the time they
make their appearance until they dis
appear.
Root lice, says an exchange, are
more destructive to vegetation than
those which prey upon the stems and
leaves. The louise which attacks the
roots of the apple tree is one of the
most destructive of its class. This
pest sometimes works on the naked
trunk. where it may be detected by
mass of little granulatiOns about the
size of cabbage seed.
Meadows should not be mown too
close nor should grass become too ripe
before moving. When meadows be-
come unproductive, despite the farm
er's best care and treatment. then the
remedy is to pillow up the aged grass
and release the soil from its indurated
and inactive state by thorough tillage
for couple of years. Then if desira-
BILE, it can, by reseeding, be restored
to its prime condition.
Water from some wells is too cool
to be given to animals. Especially in
very warm weather it is judicious to
draw the water long enough in advance
to allow its chill to be removed before
the animals drink it, especially if they
are fatigued. A handful of fine corn
meal stirred into a bucketful of water
will be acceptable, and prevent injury
from excessive drinking of cold water.
Strawberry Gelatine: Take a paper
of gelatine and soak it as usual, adding
one quart less of water with sugar and
the juice of one lemon. Have quart
of Strawberries sugared and left stand
ing for about two hours, when crush
them and rub them through the sieve
and pour over them through the sieve
the gelatine. Whip up pint and a
half of cream. stirring it into the gela-
tine, when put it into form and set it
on ice. Serve with or without cream.

Gently become known, and in a COM
paratively very limited territory,
though it was introduced into the
Unite Estates some time prior to the
Revolution, being known and cultivated
by all the leading husbandmen of an
cient Europe; but up to within a COM
paratively recent date its management
was such as not to show its super-ex-
cellent qualities. But this is a scien-
titic era, and the experiments lately
made haYe developed fact after fact
which have demonstrated beyond
doubt its superior qualities, not only
for one use but for many.

MICROBES AND oIARRHGA.
How to Kill the Bacteria Contained IL
Milk and Other Fluids.


We shall confne ourselves in this
paper TO the diarrhoea OF infants Mi
crobes abound almost everywhere.
Several different kinds have their
habitat in the secretions OF the
mouth and throat. Most kinds
are harmless. while others are
the cause of various infectious dis
eases. Among the diseases caused by
them are cholera infantum and other
forms of infantile diarrhGa.
Breast-milk is wholly free from bac-
terra, therefore it is chiefly bottle-fed
babies who have cholera infantum. and
such patients are readily cured, if not
already too far gone, by being trans
ferred to a healthy wet-nurse. Breast
milk does not curdle and form hard,
cheesy Jumps. which keep up a con-
slant irritation of the bowels, as cows
milk does. This curdling is due TO
microbes which the milk absorbs from
the air.
Another kind of microbe effects still
more dangerous changes in the milk,
producing the violent poison, now
known as tyrotoxicon, which has so
often proved fatal to eaters of ice-cream
and milk pies. This same microbe is
believed by some investigators to De
the cause Of cholera infantum.
Experts are assiduously searching
Cor some effective means of destroying
the nOXious microbes after their in
vasiOE of the digestive tract. Mean
while the great aim should be preven-
ton. This may be attained by ''steril-
izing the milk" that is, by killing the
microbes contained in it. Sterilizing
is best done by steaming the milk in
bottles. Soxhlet, of Germany. con-
trived an apparatus for the purpose.
which is now extensively used in that
country. DR.. T. NJ Rotch. of Boston,
has prepared an improved apparatus
and tested it in the wards of the H.
FAINT Hospital.
DR.. John A. Jeffries, OF Boston, who
has made special study of the SUBJ
ject. declares that no expensive and
complex process is needed. Take the
flask from which the child is to be fed
"a mere medicine bottle will do upon
a pinch-put in stopper of cotton
wool, and heat the bottle and the stop
per in an oven for thirty minutes at a
mild bakingheat, or until the cotton
becomes brown. Then pour the milk
into the flask, put in the same stopper
and heat in a steamer for fifteen min
utes. When the milk is to be used,
take out the cotton plug, and put on a
short rubber nipple, without any tube.
Milk thus prepared will last a long
time. A number of bottles may be
prepared at once, enough for a journey
of several days. or for a voyage across
the Atlantic. If it is desired TO sweeten
the milk, the sugar-milk sugar is pre-
ferable-should be put in before the
milk is steamed. OF course, Overfeed-
ing is always to be guarded against,
especially during the heated term
