Theosophy,s High Priestess.

New YORK, July 18.-Advices from
London confirm the opinion recently ex-
pressed in the dispatches that Mrs. Annie
Besant would become the successor of the
late Madame Blavatsky as the practical
female dictatress of the International
Theosophical Society. 1t is now an
nounced that, in connection with Col.
Olcott, Mrs. Besant will undertake all OF
the duties which formerly devolved upon
the lamented high priestess and that, the
better to do this, she has abandoned all
the work to which her energies have
hitherto been devoted.

MAKING HOGS PRODUCE PEPsIN.
After Their Appetites Arc Whetted by
Trick They Are Killed.

After Their Appetites Are whetted by .
Trick They Are Killed.
The pepsin sold in the drugstores is the
veritable product of an animal stomach,
and generally of the stomach Of the hog.
One factory in New York has the oldest
method of preparing the article that ever
entered into the human mind, says the st.
Louis Globe Democrat A number of per-
fectly healthy hogs are fattened for market,
and for 36 hours before killing time are
deprived of all food, not even being allowed
drop of water. Then the trough from
which they are accustomed to eat is covered
with strong wire netting. and the most ap-
petizing sIops and hog delicacies, smoking
hot, are poured into the trough.
The fumes ascend with grateful fragrance
to the porcine nostrils, the hogs all run to
the trough and stand over it, ravenous with
hunger, squealing and fighting with each
other for chance to get at the slops. The
iron netting prevents them from tasting the
food, and while they are still thinking
about the matter they are killed, and their
stomachs being taken out are found per-
fectly full of gastric juice, from which
the pepsin is prepared. Now, if it was not
the hogs Imagination that made the gastric
juice flow into his stomach in anticipation
of feast, what was it?

Ono OF the Dispatch's Friends Has . Start
ling Experience on the Rail.
A friend of THE DISPATCH sends the fol-
lowing account of very remarkable e1pe-
rience she had short time ago:
Last Saturday afriend and myself boarded
the Philadelphia express (bound East) tor
Latrobe. There were but few vacant seats
found one woman inclined to be piggish,
with her satehel and wraps piled up beside
her. l asked if the seat was engaged, and
she said 1t was. took one opposite, and
had just been fairly seated when there
crawled out from beneath this woman's feet
huge snake. L screamed ga snakep' and
jumped onto the seat just as we women do
when we see mouse.
In an instant my neighbor picked up the
monster, very deliberately made it into a
coil and placed it in her satchel. She told
me not to be alarmed (the beastly creature),
that it was pet The pet was an African
species, so she told the gentleman behind
her, 81 feet long. She had opened the
satchel to give it air and it crawled out
without her knowledge. 1 did not get to
see the conductor, as he had lifted our tick
cts and passed on; but when told about it
the next day he said there would have been
one snake less if he had seen it. 1t was a
most dreadful experience, as others besides
myself can testify. E.S.

Science in Bread Making.

At the recent annual meeting Of tho
American Chemical Society in Washington,
D. c., the question of the value of carbonate
of ammonia as a leavening agent in bread,
or as used in baking powders, came up for
discussion. 1t was shown conclusively that
bread made with a baking powder IN which
l per cent of carbonate of ammonia is used,
in connection with cream of tartar and
soda, is not only of uniformly better color
and texture, but product more wholesome,
because the ammonia serves to neutralize
any organic or Tactic acids present in the
flour. 1t was stated that ammonia rendered
the gluten of the flour more soluble than
the original gluten. and that the bread in
which this action was produced by carbon
ate of ammonia must be more digestible,
and hence more healthful, and because Of
the extreme volatility of carbonate of am
monia, and its complete expulsion from the
bread in the process of baking, it Is one Of
the most useful. most healthfuI, and most
valuable leavening agents known.

A LEAVENING AGENT FOB BREAD.
The Male Ostrich Has Been Known to Brain

ALUMINIUM FOR THE FL4SH-LIGHT
WRITTEN FOR THE prspArcu.1


A scheme has been projected in st. Louis
for facilitating the transmission of malls be-
tween the various sections of that city and
the main postoffiee by using the street rail-
road lines. This Is a departure of such i'm
portance that its developments will be
watched with great interest. As operated
at present 81 square miles OF the city is sup
piled with five sub-stations-about ten
square miles per station. Much valuable
time is lost by carriers in going to and from
stations, which could be utilized il they
could get their mail at points less remote
from their routes 1t is therefore proposed
to establish sub-stations, with facilities for
stamp sales, registry, ETC., to the number Of
about 90, mostly in drug stores and similar
places contiguous to steet car lines, which
radiate north, northwest, west, southwest
and south; placing on the selected lines cars
quite similar to ordinary railroad post
offices.
In these cars will be carried messenger
He will receive the mails as arranged at ths
central postoffices. At the first of his sta
tions he will pass of the sack for that sta
tion, receiving at the same time the malt
accumulated there. This will have been
already partly arranged, so that the package
for station will come to him marked with a
red tag, and he can go on with his distribu-
tion for stations beyond; and so at each sue
ceeding delivery and reception of mail over
his entire route. The main idea Is to do
away, as far as possible, with carrying all
collections to the general office for aSsort-
ment and distribution. 1t is/tntended to
begin with two cars. The car next preceding
mail train will carry signal to denote
such to be the case, so that the public will
be thus enabled to derive the fullest benefit
from the service.

Everyone knows how subtle, penetrating
and permanent is the rich perfume of altar
of roses. The larger part of the worlds
supply of this delicious scent is made in
Persia, where there are many hundreds of
acres devoted to the cultivation of roses for
this purpose.
AT certain seasons of the year long cara
vans of donkeys, laden with the altar, and
under guard of soldiers to protect the rich
booty from attack by robbers, journey from
Central Persia to the little port Of Bushire,
whence it is exported to Bombay. Other
donkey trains similarly escorted proceed to
ports on the Caspian Sea, whence the altar
Is conveyed to Turkey and Russia, which,
after Hindostan, are the largest consumers
of the costly luxury. When the wind is in
the right direction the approach of one of
these caravans is announced by the scent
long before it can be seen, and the line of
its progress can be traced by the odor for
days after it has passed by.

Some Interesting notes on the habits
Of the ostrich, which is now being
bred not only in South Africa but also in
this country, have been put before the Rural
Society of Tasmania by James Andrew. Mr..
Andrew, who has devoted great attention to
the study of the ostrich, says that during
the nesting season the male ostrich is any
thing but an agreeable creature, and resents
the intrusion of any visitors on his domain
in very pugnacious way. His mode OF at
tack is by series of kicks. Instances arc
known of men being killed outright by q
single kick, and Mr.. Andrew recites the case
of a horses back being broken by blow
aimed at its rider. If q man is attacked IL
is useless for him to seek safety in flight as
the bird would easily overtake him. The
only plan is to lie fat on the ground and
submit as resignedly rs possible to the in
evitable and severe pummeling which ID
may be expected will be repeated at inter-
walls until a means of escape presents itself,
or the bird affords an opportunity of being
caught by the neck, which, if tightly held
and kept down, prevents much further mis-
chief Under such circumstances Mr.. An
drew has known a bird, with badly caicu-
lated kick strike the back of it's own head,
scattering the brains" serious loss Of
valuable property to the farmer"

as compared with that of horses. In cover
ing distance OF 8: miles two cavalry officers
rode against two infantry officers mounted
on bicycles. The latter accomplished the
journey in 2lb minutes and 2lo minutes re-
horseback arrived at their destina ton seven
minutes before the first bicycle rider. Over

blcyclists went at full speed all the way.

TOO SWIFT FOR THEM NOW.


'rWhat few of US are left along Fourth
avenue or on the old Transverse line, or
West End either, for that matter, have our
hearts in our mouths dozen times a day.
On Fourth avenue our little car gets sand
wiched in between the Duquesne electric,
the Wylie avenue cable and the Hazelwood
traction cars. 1t gets lump nearly every
trip that sends shiver through my frame.
A Transverse driver has grown prematurely
old on account of the crossing he has to
make at the corner of Wood street and
Sixth avenue. He can't count the electric
cars that whiz around him there every trip.
He says he kisses his wife goodby every
morning for the last time.

Fourth avenue in winter when the horses
would slip and the brakes freeze and have
not been afraid to stick to my car when she
flew back across Smithfeld street. And
once, good many years ago, when the pink
eye knocked all the horses out on the Citi-

A new paint OIL has been introduced under
the name of linsodine, in Scotland, which
bids fair to supersede linseed oil. 1t is equal
in body and consistency to hnseed oil, and
cheaper than boiled oil, both in first and ulti-
mate costs. Among the advantages possessed
by linsodIne over boiled oil are the follow
ing: 1t is paler in color it has stronger and
more uniform drying power. 1t dries hard
and bright with a better surface. 1t can be
used without fear in all classes OF work. It
Is more durable, and does not blister, shrink,
or crack. LlnsOdine is claimed to be per-
feet dryer, and dries by oxidation. 1t mixes
with all kinds of paint, and not only can be
used with the same trimmings as linseed oil,
but actually improves linseed oil by being
added to it.

Removing Rust From Knives.

Great trouble is sometimes caused IN the
household by knives and other steel cutlery
becoming rusty. This may easily be pre-
vented by little care. Steel cutlery should
be plunged in pan of whiting after wash
ing and removed just before it is used.
When it is wiped it will be perfectly bright,
and if kept in this way it cannot get rusty.
In case the cutlery should already be rusty
it should be rubbed with a flannel dipped in
sweet oil; then covered with slaked lime and
allowed to rest for "a hours. 1t should then
be wiped clean and finished of with some
po wdered whiting, and piece OF chamois
leather, when it will become as bright az
