UNCOUTH BURIALS.
How the NOmads of Queensland Dispos
of Their Dead.

How the NOmads of Queensland Dispose
of Their Dead.
OF all the modes of burial ever prac-
man beings the method of the Queens
land nomads is certainly the most I'M
couth. After drying the corpse in the
sun and knocking out it's teeth for
keepsakes, they deposit it on Frame
work of rough poles, and bury it under
few armfuls of rushes and old kanga-
roo skins, leaving the bush wolves to
sing its requiem. No member of the
dead mans tribe will settle within a
mile of his grave, for fear of being
haunted by the spooks making the
burial-place their midnight rendezvous.
The metaphysical opinions of the
Australian aborigines prove, indeed, that
savages can be afflicted with an album
dance of supernaturalism without be-
traying trace of anything deserving
the name of religious sentiment. They
believe in evil spirits whistling in the
blasts of the storm wind, and try to ex-
orcise them by splitting in the direction
of the sky; but for the conceptions of
the Diety, of future existence, of re-
pentance, atonement and conscience
their language has not even definite
word. From somewhere in the land of
their NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Asia, perhaps
they have imported notion family
resembling the Buddhist doctrine of
metempsychosis, and believe that ami

as human beings of superior rank

Strange Sights of the Sandy Barrens OF
the West.
The traveller who takes his way
across the desert plains of the south
west can but be depressed as mile after
mile of barren sand is crossed, and still
before and at either side stretches away
the same arid landscape. The barren
ness of these plains is relieved only by
few cedar bushes and cacti. Far and
wide not a tree, not a spear Of grass,
but empty as bcggar's fist, lie the
shifting sand dunes, the monotOny only
broken by some peculiar ragged cliffs,
far away against the horizon, their ir.
regular crevices standing out with
strange distinctness in the dazzling sun.
light. But, sometimes, when the con.
ditions are favora BILE, the wayfarer is
favored with vision as beautiful as it
is unreal 1t is very warm; the over
heated air shimmers and trembles over
the sandy floor. Suddenly above the
cliffs darkly outlined against the sky
is to be seen a long stretch of water,
clear and shining, it's silver waves
stirred now and then as if by light
breezes. Then mountain peak rises
out of its silvery sea; an island is first
dimly then more clearly visible,
crowned with majestic palms and lau-
rels waving gracefully in the purple
haze that envclops it. White-breasted
swans, herons and famingoes glide
through it's clear streams, or stand, re-
fectively, outlined against it's tropical
sky. But while we gaze the dancing
waves lose their brilliancy, fainter and
fainter grows the whole lovely vision
until it vanishes altogether. 1t was the
spirit of the desert, mirage, and the
CHASTITY vestiges scattered over the
sands tell well the story of the unfor-
Inmates who have striven to reach its
treacherous shore.-Chicago Graphic.

while he looked after some mining
claims which he owned in that state.
One of these claims was few miles
north of Texas Creek, little station on
the Denver and Rio Grande railroad,
just west of the Royal gorge of the Ar
kansas river. While father was over
seeing some work on that particular
property, he and l boarded with the
wife of the station agent and my only
occupations were hunting and fishing
with Teddie O'Brien. Father rode
bucking broncho to and fro between
his mine and the station. One fine day,
the vicious little brute threw his rider
and gave him bad fall. Indeed, so
bruised was fathers hip and side that
he was quite unable to ride again for a
week or more. OF course, he could not
go up to the mine during this time,
since it was impossible to drive a wagon
along the narrow mountain trail, so he
decided to take a trip down to Denver
for few days. I should have gone
with him, but the very morning that
we were to start leased Mrs. O'Brien's

badly for me to think of showing my

IN THE ELECTRICAL WORLD.
An ingenious method Of applying

An ingenious method Of applying
drugs hypodermically to tho human
body in which electricity is brought
to bear is receiving considerable atten-
ton.
AS Howard Hall was starting an
electric motor in Bridgeport, Ct. few
days ago, "a bright blaze shot out from
the dynamo and burned his mustache
off,"
"A telegraph operator in Cheyenne,
Wy, has invented an electric machine,
to be applied to street cars, for indicat-
Ing the number of business houses and
the names of streets while the car is in
motion.

ing of the new hotel at Tampa, Fla, is
the use of incandescent carbons, by
which the light can be turned down dim
If desired in a sick room, or for other
purposes. This is the first hotel in the
world lighted in this manner. The new
discovery has been used in some in

March, 7, 1898, having been originally
granted March Z. 1875, for term of
seventeen years.-Scientific American.
Prof. w. C. Webster, F. C. s., of
England, claims to have reduced the
process of electrical disintegration
or destruction of sewerage to
commercial by economical basis
He has , lst given figures in a
paper showing that 1000, 900 gallons for
"a hours c. n be destroyed at cost of
$4,000 pr annum, with 37-horse
power motor. He failed by his process
to produce any residuum that was of
commercial value.
1t is learned that the Thomson
Houston Company of Lynn have been
making experiments in operating cleo
trio street cars in that city with arma-
lures wound on the car axles, with salts
factory results If this method of car
propulsion can be made practicable, 1t
will dispense altogether with gearing
of all kinds between motor and axle,
and do away with that grating, grind
ing noise which is the only really OBJ
jectiona BILE feature of electric cars.
1t seems not unlikely that electrici-
ty will be applied to smelling furnaces
in the near future. An electrical fur
mace has been patented in England
which is said to have given excellent re-
suits in the series of tests to which it
has been subjected. The electrodes are
blocks of a carbon secured in metal
cases, and placed opposite to each 9TH
er in the walls of the furnace. The
metal cases containing the carbons are
kept cool by circulating water around
them, and the carbons themselves are
capable of automatic adjustment to COM
pensate for wear.

they are put in their places in the tool
house: but we need not go to this
trouble every night. In the winter,
wagons are put Ga barn floor of main
barn, which leaves space in No for
sleigh and carriage.
Il is the barn. Notice position of
horse stable QD with reference to tool
house right handy by for hitching up
or unhitching The letter stands for
door all through. Notice outside en-
trance to covered yard. We can drive
in one way, say through the space at 6,
in tool house, and unhitch, and then
hitch on in the morning and go right
around out the other doors, with wagon
or binder or any tool. Or we can come
in the other way and go out through
tool house. Again we can go through
sta BILE in main barn. Over all the
spaces in tool house except 6 we have
a floor, SO as to use room above for
storing odds and ends. Over tools the
floor is about 7 feet high; over carriage
space, a little higher. The dotted lines
simply show position of posts. There
are no partitions, of course, in tool
house. The tool house is 22x56 feet.
AS used in connection with other build
ings it just suits us. We could suggest
no changes for the better. 1t is as snug,
with as little waste room, and as con-
venient as we could make it. With a
thousand dollars worth of implements
to care for, it pays, and so does the
covered yard, as a temporary shelter
for tools, say nothing about the saving
of manure.
We were unable to build all at once,
but had the plan laid out and got it
completed as soon as possible. The
tool house was first built and nicely
finished, at a total cost, including all
lumber labor, etc, of $400 Then the
main barn and part of covered yard
followed in two or three years, at a
cost of about 81, 400. Then last year we
finished up yard to our entire satisfac-
ton at further cost of nearly 5000.
We might build the tool house slightly
different for use alone or if differently
situated in regard to other buildings.
Friend Tabor can figure this out for his
circumstances. We have the space at
No. 6, II feet wide, which is room
enough for driving in three horses
abreast and unhitching them.
The grading in front of tool house,
however, is very carefully done. The
space is graveled and only just full
enough to turn the water off with
caves trough to help, so one man can
readily draw in a wagon or most any
tool. The floor is of earth, of course,
the door posts resting on stones sunk
in the earth. There is tight under
pinning under the other three sides.
The covered yard is in the southeast
corner. 1t is planl1ed up feet high on
the outside, and then open feet, thus
giving stock pure air and sunshine with
out exposure to rain or mud. The
buildings protect it from north and
west. There is water there, of course,
as well as comfort for man and beast

The subject of how to protect seed

/ believe that fully one-eighth of the
stand of corn is injured every year. I
have known of very many pieces taken
so badly that entire replanting was
necessary; sometimes fax was sown
instead but that is an injury to the
ground. If smoking seed corn with
sulphur or anything else will prevent
gophers molesting it, would like to

the word Know. l have seen dozen
ways of prevention going the rounds of
the papers, but should hate to pin my
faith to something and then lose

moment is precious, and one can i'll
