The only woman professor at Chautau-

Tender Parents.

Mr.. and Mrs. II. f. Reiser went TO
church Sunday evening, leaving in the
charge of their son, a lad about 16 years Of
age, 3-year-old baby. Like most boys he
eventually got tired of his task, and put
baby to sleep in the cradle while he went
up the street. The parents returned home,
and finding that their son had deserted his
charge determined to give him scare
With this end in view they tore up pieces
of red cloth and placed them around the
baby's neck and on it's hands, and then up-
set the chairs and otherwise dsarranged
the house and hid themselves.
The intent was to cause the boy to think
that the child's throat had been cut and
the house burglarized. In this they were
eminently successful, for upon the son :
return he was nearly distracted at the
horrible sight that met his gaze. He
rushed out of the house, and, alarming his
next door neighbors, Mr.. and Mrs. Adam
Tracht, they all armed themselves and re-
turned to capture the robbers and murder
ers. The parents by this time concluded
that the joke had gone far enough and
came forth from their hiding place. The
boy received a shock to his nerves that it
took him some time to recover from. n

New way to Make Copper pipes.

y Electrically deposited copper is now ex-
hibited in London in the shape of copper
pipes of all sizes, from six to eighteen
inches in diameter, and about ten feet in
length; some are little more than one-siNr
teenth of an inch thick. while others are
three-eighths Of an inch. They were all
prepared by a patent copper depositing
company, which is now working on COM
mercial scale from common Chilli bars
without any immediate process.
The bars are placed as the anode in an
electrolytic bath, and the tubes are depos-
tied direct IN a rotating mandrel each in

A Peculiar Fowl.

Fred Deppe, butcher has in his shop
peculiar looking fowl which he has kept
there as pet for weeks. The fowl, be
thinks, is a cross between chicken and a
turkey. But it has the head and beak of
an eagle, the back of hawk or crowand
the breast and legs of chicken of the
Shanghai order. In fact, it is an ornibho-
logical nondescript. 1t is a female and
slightly larger than an ordinary hen. 1t
is somewhat ungainly in form, having a
large head and large feet and wings
The color is chiefly red, interspersed
with white feathers, and its feathery GOV
ering is quite heavy. When standing or
walking its position is almost erect, very
similar to that of crow, but its head is,
extended far forward, with an arched
neck, giving its upper portion much the
appearance of an eagle. When standinq q
its tail feathers extend forward between its
legs in a ridiculous manner.-St. Louis

Chemistry in Ancient Egypt.

The priests of Thebes and Memphis
made great advances in the knowledge
of the art of extracting metals, of forming
alloys, and of making vessels and tools ont
OF them. They distinguished crude gold
from refined gold, and could work that
metal up into variety of articles. They
fed the hope that they might be able to
obtain it by coloring asemon or silver
yellow. Of the latter metal they made
money, the value of which was guaranteed
by an impressed image. They extracted
gold and silver from electrum, a mineral
containing both substances, but which
presented to their eyes the appearance of a
metal like them. This was what led them
to the notion of transmutation
The Egyptians designated as ''chesbet"
several kinds of blue or green sapphires
colored with cobalt or copper. They made
demonstrations, amulets, necklaces and vari-
GUS ornaments of them. They succeeded
in compromising an artificial chesbet re-
sembling the natural stone. A fact worthy
OF remark in the matter is that this was
done by the assimilation of colored sub
stance, precious stone, an enamel, a
vitrihed color with metals"
This assimilation suggested the new idea
of dyeing, 'for the imitation Of the sap

"Dollar.n

English, and taking the macaw inside, he
carefully clipped off the two feathers and
handed them to the delighted Indian, who
threw down his two dollars and uttered a
suppressed war whoop as he strobe off down
the street
The macaw was so mad when he looked
around at his tail that he muttered several
Brazilian cuss words, refused to speak to his
master and went to bed without bis supper
