thony Park by carriers still goes on
pending the ruling by the postmaster
general. POstoffice Inspector Pulsifer
was seen at the postoffice yesterday and
said his communication with the de-
partment on the matter is of con-
fidential nature. He thought it small
matter to make so much stir about. as
it only involves the question of free or
postotfice delivery of small amount of
mail, and it is hard TO get any one to ac-
cept the agency there. as only $500 a
year is allowed for salary, office rent,
fuel and light.

OF severe accident that happened TO
Mr.. @. A Swan, of the Halleck Cattle

top OF the cars and walked back to-
ward the caboose when a sudden Jerk
threw Mr.. Swan to the ground break
ing his right leg twice between the

knee and breaking one of his arms.
His companion heard hin cry out as
he fell and climbed down and stopped

ID ALUM PoISoNoUs2
HALLS Journal Of H6alth.l


! deal OF discussion. Alum is used by
many bakers TO whiten their bread,
enabling them to use IN inferior
hour. 1t Is most extensively en-
ployed as a cheap substitute for
cream OF tartar in the manufacture of
baking powders. It has not been
considered immediately dangerous;
although it continued it induces dys-
pepsla and obstinate constipation.
But the TACT that many cases Of pois-
onlng have occurred from the use of
alum, puts the question in a more Sc
rlous aspect, and the prudent people
Will exercise caution in the selectlan
OF baking powders"
"Under what conditions then, does
this substance formerly used only
for mechanical or medicinal purposes
become poisonous? They are GER
tainly obscure, and at present we can
only surmise what they may be. We
suspect that the cause exists in the
individual poisoned; some popularity
of the constitut ion produ cling NOR
bid change in the secretions Of the
stomach, with which the alum COM
bines and forms an active poison; or
the secretions may be healthy but in
unusual proportions, and that these
less or greater proportions in COM
bination with the alum constitute u
poison"
"For example, two parts of mercury
and two parts of chlorine form Gallo
mel, which is not poisonous, but
change the proportions to one part
mercury and two parts Of chlorine,
aud We get corrosive sublimate, which
is deadly poison.
"Fhen again we know nothing of
the constitutional peculiarities. Why
If it that one person can eat all kinds
OF green fruits and vegetables with
IMMUNITY, while the same course
might cost another individual his
life! One person can handle poison
ivy and slmac without being in the
least affected; another is poisoned if
he approaches to within ten feet of
them. Out of a family residing in a
malarial district, some of the mem
bers Will suffer half the year with
fever and ague, while the others will
enjoy excellent health during the en-
tire year. Foods that are wholesome
to some persons are actually poison
Gus 10 others. This is especially true
of some kinds Of fish. There is no
SAFETY in taking alum into the stom-
ach, as it is shown to be always in
furious and often dangerous" 4
The Scientific american published
in a recent number list of alum and
ammonia baking powders, which is of
great value at this time. Following

strange Transformation ResuIting from
 Changed Conditions of Life.
 The effect upon animals of a change in the conditions of their life is a favor ite topic among zoologists and biolog- iSts, who find that nearly every species or animal existed in some other than it's present form, at some previous epoch of the world. The whale, for instance, was once a land animal. Forced to take to the water for living. he be- came, in time, much more like fish in shape than like land animal.
 According to a Tasmanian paper, the Hobart Mercury, 8 modification of the form of familiar European animal is going on in the Australian world under the eyes of the people there.
 The Australian rabbit, imported from England, is acquiring nails on his feet and learning to climb. As is well known, the rabbits of Australia have increased to such enormous numbers that they have become a great pest, swarming over the land and devouring the farmers crops.
 In order to protect their fields, the farmers put up wire nettings in place of fences. The rabbits could not get through these. but they presently began to burrow beneath them.
 Then the farmers sank the net tings six or eight inches into the soil. This stopped the rabbits from getting in by digging, but they presently began to attempt to get over the netting.
 As the result of the climbing. it is said, the rabbits are developing nail in their toes. The nail development has been nOticd in Queensland and still later in Tasmania.
 According to the theory of natural selection, it is likely presently to hap pen that in certain districts only those rabbits will survive which can climb at least a little; and in this way a race of climbing rabbits may be developed.

ARIZONA CATTLE.
The Census Department Makes a Report on this
 Industry.

Live Stock on Ranges is the title of a report just issued from the census department, in which the district of Arizona is treated as follows:
 "Schedule r~Iurns were received from 9S7 herds The character of the country is mountainous, generally with broad, sandy and barren plains, having limited supplies of forage and water. The winters are not not se- we're. Arizona is classed as an aria region. Although subjected in mid summer to heavy rains and great floods, the rainfall is not sufficiently distributed throughout the year to prevent long periods of drouth. The ranges are not as a rule 0vercroSded, and wool growers have not ss yet oc- cupied extensive ranges, except in Apache and Yavspai counties. The range stock of Arizona is reported as follows: Cattle 659. .75s; horses ,557 mules ond burros l, ,203 sheep 4l2. .709 {; swine S,Ol3. Mature stock in the extreme western counties, aside from home consumption, finds a market in the Pacific coast towns, while from the northern and eastern counties, where large herds are located, the market is in the distant eastern cities
 The great distance from market and long continued hostilities of the In - disns have greatly retarded the devel- opment of Arizona's live stock probs- bilities. As range section it is less densely stocked than any other grrzing regioL in the United States. While of late years the rshge cattle and horse industries have been depressed, the sheep industry is reported as in good condition"

INNOCENT CHILD.
She Was in n Summer Hotel and So Jus

she Was in a Summer Hotel and So Jus tified Her Mothers Claim. They were sitting on the porch after breakfast, and the local pastor was speaking of the great need of two new plates for the collection. The cost would not be over five dollars. The girl with the pink silk skirt, who couldn't make up her mind whether to give the bureau cover she was working to Harry or Wood, thought she would compromise and offered to raffie it for the church, says the New York Even ing Sun.
 Good said the married lady with the blue skirt. That will be fifty chances at ten cents a chance"
 This made the lady with the pink skirt look sleepy. for she had expected the proceeds to be sufficient for not only the plates, but new Pews. steeple with a clock and a set of chimes.
 Then all the people in the hotel gathered together, and the man from Sandusky who had never seen the water loaned his yachting cap. The hotel was of the class where there is a great deal of time, but not much hilarity or food. So to make it last long they decided to put fifty tickets in the hat :..l .ha lost drawn was tn Gat the bureau cover. And then the question arose as 10 who should draw them.
 The funny man said. without any hesitation: An innocent child"
 And then all the mothers of children looked around for their last born
 The lady with the blue skirt spied hers first and said: Come, little gOlden-haired Frances. none can be more innocent than you. Come and draw fifty tickets out of this hat, slow ly and one at a time"
