Wisconsin are becoming thoroughly
awakened to the fact that no legis-
latme ever convened in Madison
that was SO thoroughly opposed TO
the interests of the farmers as the
present Democratic legislature. Phil
Armom's oIeomargariue crowd; the
swill milk dealers, the alum baking

the Democratic legislator, while
honest farmers who deserve protec-
ton from frauds and bogus butter
cheats petition IN vain.

A Table with Growing Legs.

May last a small fancy table as a birth

and gilded. However, it had not been
in the house very long before the legs
were observed to~be growing, and they
are continuing to do SO. One of the legs
has put out a shoot four inches long,
upon which there are ten leaves. Alto
gether it is a very pretty table, with it's

Engineer Seery Strangely Hurt.

William Fl. Seery, engineer of the fast
express which leaves New York in the
afternoon at 4 o'clock and is due here at
sos, met with a strange and probably
fatal accident the other day nea Mon
mouth junction. While he was leaning
out of the window Of the cab, looking
back at the train, a loose bolt few up
from the track, striking him in-the head
and f~racturing his skull. Hefell uncon-
scious, with his body hanging out Of the
cab window.
The fireman, w. Harry Bowers, was
in the tender at the time attending to
the scoop, which takes up water from
the track tank, and his attention was at
tracted by the blood which spurted on
him from the engineers head. He ap-
piled the airbrakes and brought the
train to a stop. The unconscious engi-
neer was lifted into the baggage car.
and the fireman took the train through
to Trenton. 1t is doubtful if Seery re-
covers.-Philadelphia Telegraph.

Evidence of h SUMS Variability.

We cannot rest with the assumption
that, since the sun is evidently no Mira
and no Sirius, therefore it is practically
an u~nchanging radiator which for an in
definite period will continue to cause
the earth to bloom IN the beneficent eff
fulgence of its life inspiring rays. A sun
may affect the welfare Of its planets
either through the gradual mutations
which it undergoes in the course Of its
evolution, or through the more rapid
and violent changes that characterize
the stars that are ranked as variable.
We have seen that most Of these latter
belong to the third and fourth classes,
but there is reason to suspect that the
majority of all the stars are variable to
a slight degree, and evidence of varia-
bility in the case Of the SUD is furnished
by the phenor1ena Of sun spOts.-G. 2.

A Lively BuZZard.

Harry Walter and Benjamin Talbot,
of Morgantown, caught a large turkey
buzzard in a steel trap. They took the
bird home, and after keeping it a few
days by means of fine wire, attached a
sleigh bell to one of it's legs and set it at
liberty. They never heard of the bird
until a few days ago, when they read in
one of the newspapers of the capture OF
a buzzard with a bell fastened to its leg
in Bolivia, South America. From the
description of the bell and the manner
of fastening, they have no doubt that it
is the identical buzzard that was iber-
ated by them.-Harleysviile (Pa.) News.

Natural Soda Water Fountains.

In some parts OF the Colorado desert
water boils up from springs, which are
surrounded by circular hillocks of car
Donate of lime from four to eight feet
in height, the material Of which has
been deposited from the flowing fluid.
The latter is so highly charged with gas
that it is very-dif1icult to keep corks in
bottles filed with it. 1t seems queer to
find in such d desolate country real soda
water fountains supplied by nature.
Sirups are not offered 10 order, unfortu-
nately. The lime deposited on the rocky
shores was contributed by such springs
as these, ~hrDblins up from what was
then the bottom OF the lake.-Washing-

pr. Collins, had and Good Luck.

DIR. S. A. Collins, a Connecticut ply
sician. had an encounter with a wildcat
In the northeastern part of the state

He was called to attend a patient in
Samel Corners, and the road lay through

yon the doctors horse gave a snort of feal
and refused to go ahead. Wondering al
the cause of the animals fright. the doc.
tor leaned ont of the carriage and peered
into the bushes. He had hardly done sc
when two wildcats sprang from the
boughs of a hemlock tree. One landed
on the launches of the horse and the
other dropped into the bottom of the
carriage and fastened its teeth in the
flesh of the doctors legs.
A desperate struggle ensued, in which
the doctor, from loss of blood and
strength, became unconscious. In an
inside pocket of his coat the doctor car
ried a small medicine case. During the
struggle this fell out and attracted the
attention Of the cat, which began to claw
it ard tear it with it's teeth. In doing
so it broke a bottle of chloroform and
the contents seem to have stupefed it,
A farmer passing over the road some
time later found the doctor unconscious
and the wildcat among a lot of broken
bottles in the bottom of the carriage in
a deep stupor.
The cat weighed ffty-two pounds, and
was one of the largest ever killed in Con
necticut. Cor. Chicago Tribune.

arms have been carefully examined by

loaded with cartridges the size of cigac
rettes charged with a first cousin to gun
cotton. and sending a ball nearly two
inches long and three-tenths of an inch
thick against Balmaceda's troops at the
rate of from forty to sixty per minute
from each gun, that did the business for
the insurgent troops, The long, slen-
der, hard pointed bullets were of steel,
covered with a thin coat of copper, the
soft metal being designed to follow the
rifing Of the barrel more accurately and
with less wear to the gun thar the naked
steel would make. Single bullets went
