An Hydrophobia Preventive

Col. W. G. Hill says that alum water is
an unfailing specific for hydrophobia In
his younger days, when he was wont to
roam over the hills of Coweta in quest OF
deer and other game which abounded in
our forests at that time rattlesnakes were
very numerous, and it was no uncommon
occurrence for hunting dogs to be bitten
by them. The remedy in such cases was a
strong solution of alum (which was al
ways carried along for such emergencies),
with which the dog would be drenched as
soon as bitten. Usually in half an hour
the dog would be up and on the trail again,
and as active and alert as If nothing had
happened. Some time since his dog, with
several others, was bitten by a rabid
canine, and remembering his old remedy
for rattlesnake bites he drenched the dog
with alnm water. All the other dogs bit
ten developed hydrophobia, while his has
never shown the slightest symptom of ra-
bies, though nearly year has elapsed since
it was bitten.-Newman (Ga) Herald.

Our Improved Railway Service.

The Moline city council adopted the
ordinances last night empowering the
Holmes syndicate to adopt electricity as
motive power on its lines running through
that city, but providing that conduc tor
be placed on every car on the Union line,
and that the Moline & Rock Island road
pay to the city of Moline one per cent of
its gross earnings in Rock Island and Mo
line. 1t is hard to understand why Mo
lihe should follow the example of Daven-
port in attempting to handicap the Holmes
people in their efforts to give the people
the best possible street railway service. As
to the Moline council demanding any per
cent of the earnings in Rock Island is too
silly to consider, and it should make no
unreasonable demands in its own
city. The telephone company, too. is
hamperipg the Holmes company all it

ter is likely to be satisfactorily settled

How the Earth Was Weighed.

In 1772 Professor Maskelyne, with his
assistants, made experiments at Mount
Schihallion, Perthshire. Scotland, by which
they determined that the attraction ex-
erted by that mountain caused the plumb
line to deviate nearly six seconds from its
normal. Professors Playfair, Cavendish
and Hutton, knowing the structural COM
position of Schihallion, determined that
the mean density of the mountain was to
that of the earth as 3 toe. From this tie
mean density of the earth as compared
with water was determined to be as is to
l. Other more recent experiments made
the ratio vary from Al to 81 TO l. Taking
81 as the average result of all expert
ments, the diameter of the earth as 1912. Al
miles, and the weight of cubic foot of
water rs 6232 pounds, the weight of the
earth would be 5,S42 trillions of tons of
P-24O pounds; that is in figures, 5,S42, OOO,-
