A POSTOFFICE ROBBED.
Three Masked Men Secure Money and
Papers TO the Amount of $4,000.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, January 26.-
Three masked men effected an entrance into
the postoffice early this morning, locked the
night clerk in a closet and robbed the
Office of some $500 in cash. Six registered
pouches were also robbed of their contents.
One of the pouches was the registered pouch
from Santa Fe, containing several valuable
letters and one with $4,000 of Lincoln
county current expense bonds with coupons
attached.
This swells the loss to 10000, but it is a
question if the perpetrators will dare under
take to sell the bonds.

Years of Litigation.
RELATIVES DEPRIVED OF MILLIONS

That great Sprague estate, whose history
was at one time associated, through close
ties of friendship, with the name of Roscoe
Conkling, seems destined, after years of liti-
cation, to reach its rightful owners. The
story of how it has been held, or diverted, is
an interesting one, in view of the names it
calls up. Generalt B. F. Butler is cham
pion of the genuine creditors and the

The Malta now creating such dis.

after the cause which created it has passed

Italy during the second third OF this
century. Conspiracy was brought to a
science. One society was so perfectly or.
gained that it contained many thousands
of desperate men, and yet no more than
three were ever present at any meeting-a
traitor could never bctray more than two
persons. In Naples at one time very
dangerous plot WIS organized without the
utterance of Il " ri, II was all in panto

The Future of Aluminium.

Practical men ask whether the alumni
mum industry has been paying invest
ment To this question the most enthu-
siastic believer in aluminium and its future
must reply that the industry so far has not
been very profitable TO any of the numer
Gus persons and companies engaged in it
The reason given by the aluminium men is
not that there is any doubt of the useful
ness of the metal at the prices at which it
can now be produced, but that manufact-
urers do not yet understand its proper
ties. They say that, just AS Bessem er had
to wait for years before the merits of his
process for making steel were acknowl-
edged, so will the aluminium companies be
compelled to wait till the merits of the
beautiful white metal are more fully rec
ognized before fortunes can he made by
separating it from the substances with
which it is so tenaciously combined.

Staid old England is excited over some.
thing very like land 'boom"-not ia
England, but in Africa. The symptoms
are curiously like those shown in the new

experience in developing the great valley
of the Mississippi were to be repeated by
England in Africa, and in much shorter
time. All Africa south of the Great desert
is to be rapidly civilized and furnish En-.

Christian Scientist.

Christian Scientist.
Here are two preachers who are being
talked about
The new pastor of the Centenary Metho-
dist church of St. Louis, Rev. Doctor
Caradine, halls from New Orleans, where
he long filled the pulpit of the Carondelet
Methodist Espicopal church. While in the
Crescent city he distinguished himself in
an unusual manner as shown in the follow
ing from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:
Few people in the north or in this city know
that the recent enactment of laws by congress
in its attempt to choke the lottery monster Of
New Orleans is the result of movement begun
and planned nearly two years ago by Dr. Cara
dine, who, fully realizing the evil influence NJ
work, one day spoke his mind on the subject
from the pulpit of the Carondelet Methodist
church. The situation of affairs v,.s' so graphic
ally pictured by the man of the l@pel that his
sermon was printed in a circular and scattered
over the south broadcast. The good work began
to bear fruit. In few months the effect was APP.
parent and an anti-lottery movement begun.
Again DR.. Caradne poured hot shot into the
enemy's camp from the pulpit, and printed mat
ter was freely circulated. Illustrated pamphlets,
edited by him, followed and reached that class
who would not or could not read or think.
The followers of Dr. Caradne became
numerous that he grew bold enough to attack
the enemy-the lottery swindlers in their own
camp and premses-the state legislature-but
money proved itself stronger than moral suasion,
and he and his friends were obliged to look to the
most powerful body in the land, the nited States
senate and there they were more successful,
the country at large is aware.
DR.. Caradine is 50 years old, but is de-
scribed as apparently in his prime. The
anti-lottery movement is his pet topic, and
he declares that he believes the recent act
of congress will give the lottery business
Il. -
not only to reform legislation relating to
lotteries but to stir up the public con
science so that the swindle can have no
support. The possessor of lottery ticket
is in his opinion party to the fraud and

The jelly fish have no resemblance to
fish" and scarcely appear to exist They
are of no use to mar, and when removed
from the water dwindle by little and little
to tiny film and nothing more-they dis
solve into air and water. Cases have been
known and tales told of how farmers col
lected hundreds of these jelly fish for
manure, n Il when the cart reached the
field, to tue mans establishment, nothing
was left but what appeared cobweb in the

Out OF the Way Information on Subjects
of Very General Interest.

OF Very General Interest.
From very early period man appears to
have been DESTROYS to study the art Of fly
ing The old myths of Dedalus and Icarus
show us this, and it is not to be wondered
at. When the graceful fight of birds is
noticed we feel envious almost that we
cannot rise from the earth and sail away
at our pleasure over land and sea. But to
descend to history. 1t is undoubtedly true
that in the time of Nero Simon Magus at
tempted to fly from one house to another
by means of some mechanical contrivance,
and failing killed himself Roger Bacon
the admirable DOCTOR" to whom the in
vention of gunpowder is generally at
tributed, had distinct notions of flying by
means of machines, and "hollow globes
and "lquid fire." But he did not succeed,
nor did many successive attempts succeed
any better in subsequent years. Bishop
wilkins treated of the art of flying, but
most, if not all, who discussed the subject
appear to have been indebted to Roger Ba-
con for the idea.
When the nature and pressure of the at
mosphere by Torriceli's experiments be-
came better known Father Lana, a Jesuit
priest, constructed "A flying machine or
balloon of curious shape. He proposed to
fix four copper globes, very thin and about
twenty feet in diameter, and to these he
fastened boat or car looking very much
like basin. His idea was to empty his
great copper globes, and that their buoy
ancy would then bear the weight of the
traveller. But he overlooked or was igno-
rant of the effect of the atmospheric press
ure, which would have speedily crushed
the thin copper gt)bes when empty. La
mas suggestion was made in 1910, the ba-
