An Opportunity

There is still an opportunity to make de-
sirable selections at present prices, as there
are still few choice lots on the market.
When these are sold no more win be offered
for a year at least. Those intending to
make selections should not delay. Many
were disappointed when the first 10 lots
were sold last year and many more win
regret this year that they have procrasti-
mated when the last of the lots are sold.

|4,reed from custody.
The attorney for the pugilists, A. G. Nc

|rursuts had been issued on any affidavit
5 information. The warrant had been
~aru toby Sheriff John Ii. McGraw, who

therefore. only state that such an affair
Ira occurred tothe best of his knowledge
IA belief. Attorney Mcbride maintained
|iAat this was not enough, and that war

ssuea unless issued on a positive knowl-
nm Of the facts. The court granted the
motion and discharged the prisoners.
4 new warrant was obtained, Deputy
Sheriff Mcdonald, who was an eyewitness

Plaster Casts OF uailst0nes.

DR.. David Genese, Of Baltimore, has
achieved something novel in the way Of
making plaster casts. A hail storm passed
over the Monumental city the other day
and the doctor determined 10 secure a
permanent record Of the size and shape
Of some of the larger stones They were
placed upon slab Of glass and mix
ture Of fine modelling plaster poured
over them. Alum was mixed with the
plaster to make it set quickly. Where
the hailstone touched the glass small
aperture was left. As the hailstoncs
melted the water ran out Of this open
ing. A solution was then poured in 70
prevent adhesion, and freshly mixed
plaster was poured into the mold thus
prepared. When hardened the outer
crust was broken away, leaving exact
casts Of the hailstoncs, except that the
kecner edges Of the ice were lost slightly
by rapid melting caused by the heat that
was generated by the crystallization Of
the plaster. The models are neatly sill
vered, The largest is nearly two and
fve-eighths inches long
