A Curious Chemical Anomaly.

An astonishing result was reached by
Dr. Richardson, the English expert
physiologist, in some experiments on
the respiration of animals confined in
pure oxygen. In most cases steady
flow of fresh oxygen rendered the ami
mails confined in it excited and feverish,
and none were quieted or made sleepy
When, however, the oxygen, after hav-
ing been passed once through the cham
bers containing the animals, was col
lected, purified and again used, all the
warm blooded animals, such as dogs,
cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, ETC., became
drowsy and fell quietly asleep; and,
when the gas was again used after an
other publication, the sleep became
deeper and some of the animals soon
died.
The oxygen appeared chemically
pure at each time of using and the
cause of its remarkable change in ef-
feet is as yet mystery. Whether some
peculiar modification of oxygen takes
place during respiration, or whether
the toxic properties arc due to some ac
tive product of respiration which has
escaped detection in the inhaled gas, is
problem which will doubtless be
studied with much interest. ST. Louis

A very important Improvement in the
street railway business has been invent
ed by Captain NJ. A. Cutter, of Allie
gheny. 1t is an appliance attached to
the car for throwing n switch, and
which can be handled by the grip man
or motor man without compelling him
to stop or get out Of the car The car
can be going at full speed and make a
switch without slowing up or causing
any Inconvenience to the man who
throws the switch. The contrivance is
very simple and inexpensive one.
Another improvement which Mr.. Cut
ter has made is In the running gears
By touching lever the entire car can
be swung around upon the wheels and
started backward There is, conse-
quently, but one motor needed for each
car, and in this way the cost OF equip
ping a single car is reduced TO about
one-half. A brake has also been In
vented by Mr.. Cutter by which the car
may be held while being reversed. -

Modesty Question OF G.ooraDhv,

! walk along the stream and amuse
myself by taking note Of the bathers.
They see nothing wrong in their ac-
tions, and | note there is nothing really
immodest, bold or indecent about them.
They think nothing wrong In families
and friends bathing together and.
after all, have again forced upon me
the feeling that modesty and immodesty
are matters of custom and fashion, and
am reminded Of little maiden In
Egypt who, upon seeing me approach,
covered her face with her skirt that she
might modestly hide It from the eyes Of
a man. The japanese are ia many
ways more modest than we are. They
are In most things more polite and re-
fined. Still, until lately, the sexes
bathed there together In the very capi.

He Knows All the Tricks the white Man
Knows. and Possibly Few More.
J. D. Bradford is connected with the
Choctaw Railway company, of the In
dian Territory. He was chatting with
a group of local politicians, and Colonel
Babcock remarked that Mr. Bradford
was in a land blessed with no politics.
You are wrong" exclaimed Mr..
Bradford. "The cleverest politicians
in the United States are in our terri
tory"
"Who are theyr
''The Choctaw Indians have no equals
IN practical politics in any land in the
world, and won't debar the state Of
Indiana either. You know the Choc-
taws have a governor elected by the
people, and legislative body called
the Choctaw national legislature. This
house holds regular sessions, and they
make laws, roll logs, establish rings,
and do everything else that politicians
can think of. When Governor Jones,
a young halfbreed, was elected gov
ernor we witnessed one of the greatest
campaigns ever fought. When our
railroad pierced the coal mines of the
Choctaw nation several Of the old red
men attempted to get possession of
most of the mines and make us pay
dearly for the coal. They failed, and
have cried corporation ever since.
80 when the gubernatorial candi-
dates began to show their hands Jones
took the high moral ground that he was
against our railroad and all those who
favored it. He went in the fight With
this sentimeSs rs watchword, and was
elected BSHe it was an exciting fight
During the campaign if Jones wanted
to communicate with man fifty miles
away he would send man with verbal
messages. The other candidates fol-
lowed this example, and no written let
ters figured in the campaign. The day
before the voting Messiah story was
turned loose in the sections of the ma
ton where Jones was not popular, and
the people left to see the Messiah, thus
losing their votes.
''On this same day a number of lead.
ing Indians who were working againSs
the election of Jones were summoned
to Washington by bogus kilograms to
talk with the great father. And so It
went. Every conceivable trick was re-
sorted to. After Jones had been de-
clared duly elected and had taken his
seat it was discovered that one precinct,
which gave him 125 majority, was in
habited by less than seventy five peo
pie. When it comes to counting votes
and political scheming the Choctaw In
dians will certainly get place. l viii

A Mailer.

The average newspaper man who
knocks about the country. doesn't see
much that is new. In the course of

TWENTY-THREE YEARS. - Dr..
Jessup and wife last night celebrated
their 23d wedding anniversary b.t
throwing their house open in an il
formal way to a few old friends alG
neighbors. About forty partook Of
the refreshments and hospitaliiy y
which were served as Mrs. Jessup
alOue understands to serve them.
Misses Common and Dearborn as
sisted at the tables and it was near
midnight when the company parted.
There were a number present as
guests who witnessed the ceremony
twenty-three years ago, and all re-
marked the flight of years and the
wonderful changes wrought by
time. Tho they have had their
share of sorrows, the doctor and his
consort bear up bravely and cheer
fully in life's battle and seem always
happlest when they are doing some
thing to make others happy. May
the coming years of their lives be
more happy still, was the wish of all
present, and if the invocations Of
departing guests are heard DR.. and
Mrs. Jessup will never have other
Than moments of peace and joy.

ORR BUSINESS COLLEGE Prof.
w. [. Staley, principal Of the Capt.
tal Business college, presents this
office with the annual catalogue of
his school and the parent college at
Portland, of which Prof. A, P.
Armstrong is principal and Hon. ID.
p. Thompson, president. During
the past school year nearly six
buadred pupils have attended these
pcpular commercial schools, and it
would be difficult to estimate the
vast amount of assistance their
work has rendered the business
world of the Pacific Northwest.
This school has been in successful
operation since 1866, and il favor
ably known throughout the entire
Pacific Northwest. Scores of pros
perOus young business men, and
hundreds of book keepers aid stenO.
yraphels of both sexes, attribute
their success in life to the thorough
training received here. For the
mast ten years the school has been
under the personal supervision OF
AP. Armstrong, who still has i'm
mediate charge, as principal. He is
ably assisted by full corps of ener-
getic, capable and experienced
teachers, their determination being to
make the school one of unequalled
excellence in its class. Five depart
ments are maintained, to.wit: Busi-
ness, shorthand, typewriting, pen
manship, and English. Students
are admitted any time, and each
may advance as rapidly as the
studies taken can he thoroughly
mastered. Prof. Staley's manage
ment of the Salem school the past
year has been eninently successful,
and it is to be congratulated upon
securing his services for another
year.
