Walter SCOTS Mighty Magic.

In the year 1914 alone, Scott wrote
nearly the whole Of the Life of Swift"
the second and third volumes of
"Waverley," THE Lord of the Isles"

Encyclopaedia Brittanic," the intro
duction and notes to the "Memorie of
the Somnervilles," annotations to q re-
print Of Rowlands Letting or the
HumOrs Of Blood in the Head Vein,"
1911, and kept up an unstintcd corre-
spondcnce with his friends; and all this
literary activity was interrupted by Il
two months voyage to the Hebrides,
and by constant attention to the finan-
cial perpleXitios o; the Ballantyne press
and publishing house, in which his
pccuniary interests wore involved. He
seemed to feel after this stress of work
that, as no expressed it, he needed to
''refresh the machine" so he set out
for Abbotsford and refreshed tho ma

Guy MannerinG' in six weeks, at
Christmas time In the three years
from 1927 TO 1880, while no was undor
the pressure of q load of debts so large
that it seemed as if nothing loss than
some bold and speculative venture in
trade could remove the burden within
the few years left to him, he wrote
about thirty original volumes-somc-
thing like ten for each Of these years.

The Constitutional Convention Completes Its
Work and Adiourns.
SANTA FE, N. NJ. Sept 23.-After a
continuous final session lasting twenty
hours the, NewMexfco state constitutional
convention closed its labors at o clock
this morning to meet again if deemed
necessary at the call of the president of
the convention. 1t was decided to first
submit the proposed constitution to con-
gress and if that body should pass on
the enabling act then the constitution
is to be voted on by the people
within ninety days thereafter but
should congress refuse to act then
the constitution is to be voted on at the
next general election for delegate in
congress. No election will be held for
state officers until after New Mexico is
admitted az a state. The convention
memorialIzed congress for an extra grant
OF public domain for public school pur-
poses, and appointed committee of one
from each county to prepare an address
to the people and also one to congress,
urging upon them the necessity for. the,
admission of New Mexico as a state.

PARIS, Sept. %. - The Boulangists
polled 1872 800 votes in Paris against
PA ,070 recorded for Boulanger in jan
uary. Temps says voting papers for
BouIanger and Riechefort were burned.
The matter will be inquired into upon
opening of the chamber of deputies.
PARIS, Sept. 23.-M. Jules Ferry is
defeated by a narrow majority. His
brother Albert is elected for an adjacent
seat. M. Clovis Hughes Is defeated.
INvERNAY, Sept. 23.-The United
States ship of-war Enterprise arrived
here to-day. The Duke of Argyle will
entertain the officers of the vessel at his
castle.
LONDON, Sept. 23.-The Paris corre-
spondent Of the Times says the chamber
viii annul the election of Boulanger by a
sweeping majority. Boulanger ought to
set his followers an example of silence,
as the only becoming fashion of accepting
as definite his defeat. 1t behOOYes the re-
public, however, to show calmness and
reflection. NJ. Leon Say seems destined
for the grand task Of Cancellation and of
collecting the governable elements into a
compact majority. The proposal for a
revision Of the constitution may lead to q
close majority, but it is almost certain to
be rejected.
The Boulangists polled 800, 900 votes in
the Seine district, against their oppon-
ents 226 900, but the Republican vote
shows an increase of 81 1855 compared
with the vote in January. The revisory
committee will sit on Thursday next to
decide whether Gen. Boulanger shall be
declared elected or whether another bal
lot is necessary in Montmartre.
LONDON, Sept. 23.-FIve cotton mills

posed that joint expedition of Spanish

s6&E POPULAR FALLACIES.
Errors and Decisions in Which Many Persons
are Believers.

Errors and Decisions in Which Many Persons
are Believers.
A very common error is to suppose that
birds sleep with the head beneath the
wing, says the London Public Opinion.
No bird ever sleeps so; the head is
turned round and laid upon the back,
where it is often concealed by feathers.
That dogs are kept IN health by the addi-
ton of birthstone to their drinking water.
Seeing that stone birthstone is utterly in
soluble in water, fail to perceive what
use it can possibly be to the dog.
That COWS are fond of buttercups.
Cows, as well as horses, in grazing care
fully avoid these plants, which, like all
ranunOulacce are harsh, astringont and
somewhat poisonous.
That washing the face in morning dew
improves the complexion. Dew is dis
titled water, but being merely very pure
water, it cannot exercise any special in
fiuence on the skin. L am unwilling
however, TO dispel this pleasing illusion
and therefore say: SPY all means young
ladies, wash your faces III the morning
dew in full belief of its efficacy To do
so you must use early and breathe the
pure morning ar This will benefit
your health and no doubt your COM
plexion at the same time. - This is
undoubtedly the lesson intended to be
inculcated.
That fire is extinguished by the sun
shining on it. The effect in this case is
apparent, not real A fairly good fire
looks little better than a heap of white
ashes under the powerful light of the
sun s rays.
tbora 10
bricks or balls into a fire. Consider
ing that whatever heat they give out is
derived from the fire itself and that, be-
ing themselves utterly incombustible,
they contribute nothing to the heat OF
the fire, there can be no economy in
their use. Our method of using fuel is,
however, terribly wasteful. a very large
percentage of combustible matter, as
well as heat, goes up the 1ue and is
wasted.
That pipes are burst by sudden thaw.
The thaw merely finds out the bursting
that has already been effected by the
frost. 1t is the expansion of water when
passing into the ICY state that bursts
water pipes of whatever material.
That the bones are brittle in frosty
weather. No doubt more bones are
broken in the winter than in summer but
1t IS due to the slippery state or the roads
at that season, not TO speak of accidents
on the ice, and not to any abnormal con-
dition OF our bones.
That 'thunderbolts'' are tangible
realities that can be handled and pre-
served as curiosities. The only thunder
bolt is the flash Of lightning, often, no
doubt, very destructive, but never ac-
companIed by any solid. The only solid
bodies that ever fall to the earth from
the sky are Brolites or bolides, bodies
coming from outer space and having
nothing to do with thunderstorms.
That mirrors attract lightning and
should be covered or turned to the wall
during a thunderstorm. This is a pure
illusion, arising from the fact that mir
rors reflect the lightning fash and thus
add to the terror and apparent danger of
the storm.

What Touched Her Most.
Boston Courier .

They were sitting on the piazza of the
hotel at the beach watching the moon as
it slowly rose out of the slumbering sea.
Silence was around them, naught being
heard save occasionally the faint clatter
of dishes in the adjacent restaurant or
the musical hum of an aristocratio mos
quito that was making as vain a search
for blue-blooded person as Diogenes
did for an honest man. 1t was the hour
for love, sweet, pure, delicious love.
The youth felt it in his soul as he sat
there by the side of the beautiful maidens
whose silken hair almost touched his
shoulder. Suddenly he spoke in low but
thrilling and passionate tones:
f'To the poetic temperament, to the
soul that is capable of feeling the ten
derest emotions, that throbs in unison
with the harmony of nature, and is sus-
ceptible to the influences of the beauti-
full, there is a peculiar fascination in a
scene like this. The balmy air, the
rising moon, the twinkling stars, the
contiguity of one of the fairest of crea-
ton IS most perfect work, all unite to
awaken in the heart its softest, sweetest,
tenderest feeling-Ioye. Don It you think.

Bonds from Guarantee Companies.

New York Evening World
It is unnecessary nowadays for young
man to have rich friends to go on his
bond when he secures a situation where
security Of some kind is required of him
There are companies in New York which
make a business OF going on employees
bonds, receiving in return a small per-
centage of the amount of the bond. 1t
is said that this form of doing business
has become quite popular with railroad
companies and other corporations of the
sort, at least one railroad refusing to &C
cept any other bonds except
those furnished by q company. These
organizations already guarantee the
honesty of the employees along over ten
thousand miles OF railroad. The scheme
OF bonding bank cashiers is also very
popular, and one company is now on
the bond of over one hundred and fifty
cashiers in New York state. In some
places employers demand q bond of
everybody who is behind the counters >,
even though they don't handle any
money or happen to be unable to steal
anything. The charge is very small,
too. It costs all the way from Il of l
per cent to 81 of l per cent. 1t is a SIG
nificant fact that the highest rate is
that charged bank cashiers. -

THE CON HINES CASE.

denis Killing.

Justice McClung Takes Testimony as to War
denis Killing.
The man killed by Con Hines Saturday
night was Louis Warden, and not Louis
Leonard. 1t seems the man was known
to policemen and others by both
names. Justice McClung took
the testimony yesterday of Charles
Ketchum, Ella Hicks alias DePTator and
Jennie Vincent the negro prostitute. All
they knew was that man tried to get
into the room and that Con Hines shot
him. The grand jury is investigating the
case and THE GAZETTE is not informed as
to what testimony has been introduced
before them. There are many
theories about the killing, among them
one that Con Hines had no idea of shoot
ing any one, but thought he would
frlghten the man rafting or kicking at
the door, but the jury which tries the
case will doubtless ascertain the full facts.
