A Very Peculiar Casualty.

The National Car and Locomotive
Builder says: ''A few days ago very
peculiar casualty occurred on road in
Northern Illinois. While train was
passing over piece of double track a
walnut log, twelve feet long and nine
teen inches across the butt, fell from
car and rolled over onto the second
track, where it remained in lengthwise
position, and midway between the rails.
A nineteen-inch freight engine came
along shortly after on the track OBJ
structed by the log, and the pilot struck
it fair on the end. 1t split the log from
one end to the other, and threw one-half
to one side of the train and the other
half on the other side. The train was
not delayed by the occurrence, and
there was no damage done to the engine
or pilot. The split was in winding
shape on account of the grain of the log,
and was just about as it would be split
by wedges. This may seem to some
railroad men as incredible, but we have
the information from a railway official
who saw the log Immediately after it
was split.

Nest Of the OrIOle.

The nest of the Baltimore oriole is an
elaborate piece of workmanship and is
likely to be hung from dropping branch
of an elm, sycamore or pear tree. It is
placed far out on the bough where leaves
are many, and is usually in lofty situa-
ton, though nests have been found dis
tant only few feet from the ground.
The Baltimore oriole is loom, his bill
being the shuttle. With rare skill and
nicely he weaves a cylindrical pouch of
grass, horsehair, yarn, twine, strips of
bark, rags or paper, in fact any soft
material chat is obtainable and suitable
for warp and woof. If proper lengths
of bright-colored yarn are laid upon the
lawn when Icterus galbula is building
he will be sure to help himself and work
them into web. The smart appearance
his nest will then present is very strik-
ing, and, doubtless, swells his breast
with pride, while less fortunate congen-
ers consume with envy when comparing
their sober homes with his.
The Baltimore oriole lays from four to
six eggs, about,one inch by little more
than half an inch in size. These are
pinkish- white, spotted and scrawled
over, but most profusely upon the larger
end, with brownish lines and blotches. -

An Indian Sun Dance.

A sun dance was witnessed at Fort
Washakie Reservation few weeks ago.
The ceremonies were not OF very ob-
jectlonable character. They were con-
Quoted under the direction of the medi-
cine men. Nevertheless four young
bucks who had just returned from an
Indian school in Nebraska were among
the widest of the dancers. There are
good reports of the enlisted Indians
under Captain A. H. Ray, Eighth In
fantry, who has them under very good
discipline. The company is made up of
the educated young bucks and their cap

The Gastric Juice.

A physician is authority for the follow
ing statements in regard to the action of
the gastric juice on microbes: "The
empty stomach of healthy man con-
tains innumerable organisms. The gas
tric juice, and principally one, hydro
chloric acid, possesses microbicide prop
critics. The microbes take no active
part in digestion. Persons who, on ac-
count of some affections, secrete little
.hydrochloric acid, are easily intoxicated
by means of the micro organisms in the
the stomach. Therefore, the stomach
should not remain in an empty condition
for any length of time, and during an
epidemic food should be taken at fre-
quent intervals, and, if possible, steriL
iZed."

A wonderful example of patience in
the Chinese is afforded by consular re-
port dealing with the manufacture of
salt in Central China. Holes about six
inches in diameter are bored in the rock
by means of primitive form Of iron
drill, and sometimes period of forty
years elapses before the covered brine is
reached, so that the work is carried on
from one generation to another. During
this time the boring,as may be imagined,
goes down to an immense depth. When
brine is found it is drawn up in bamboo
tubes by rope working over a large
drum turned by bullocks. The brine is
evaporated in iron caldrons, the heat be-
ing supplied by natural gas, which is
generally found in the vicinity of the
salt wells,

"The Sword of Bunker HILL"

A friend who at one time enjoyed the
intimate acquaintance of William Ross
Wallace, the author of that very popular
song, "The Sword of Bunker Hill, !"
writes that Mr.. Wallace once told him
that he was paid just $40 for that piece
of composition. He said, further, that
Mr.. Wallace encountered upon the plat
form of the Cooper Institute, at later
day, Lowell Mason, who wrote the music
for this song, and had the curiosity to
ask Mr.. Mason what he was paid for his
share of the production. The latter an
swered that he received $40 also. Thus
author and composer were placed on
terms of strict equality. The piece
netted many thousands of dollars to its
publishers.

Foreign Bodies in Nasal Cavities.

1t quite frequently happens that chill
dren get foreign bodies into their nasal
cavities. If medical assistance is not
obtainable at once, there is a method
which is usually successful even when
tried bY one unskilled in such matters.
1t is as follows: The operator places a
thin cloth over the child's mouth and
applies his finger to the nostril not con-
tanning the substance, pressing just hard
enough to close tightly; then putting his
mouth to the child's he gives two or
three hard, sudden puffs. The method
Is usually successful. ul.-KaR and Espress.

A Harvest of Dates.

Harvest work in this country-wheth-
er it be hop picking, orchard clearing or
the reaping of grain-is easy enough
compared with the toll and risk of gath
ering dates. In North Africa, Persia,
Palestine, Ceylon and other lands where
the date palm fourishes, the fruit is OF
the utmost importance to the natives.
The tree has height of from sixty to
eighty feet, and its stem is bare nearly
to the top, where the leaves and fruit
are found in thick clusters. You would
naturally think that it would be extreme
ly hard to gather the dates (Which grow
in punches weighing some twenty or
twenty five pounds) from so high and
branchless tree. But the natives find
no difficulty in getting at the precious
fruit. At the time of harvest, quite a
busy scene is presented when the labor
ers are all at work. Fortunately, the
stem of the palm is very rough, and this
greatly helps the active men and women
in climbing it. They put stout rope
around the trunk, and then fasten it
about their bodies. They then throw it
a little distance up the bark, and, when
it has "caught, walk up the stem, lean
ing back, with the rope drawn taut as a
By this means they soon reach
the dates, which are either placed in a
big bag worn around their waists, or
dropped to other laborers on the ground
below. When the harvest work is over,
the fun and festival, which are common
in England at this season, are seldom
seen in the palm countries, though the
people enjoy themselves in their own
way.

The most interesting person IN Wash
ington at present is the Chinese Min
ister's little slant-eyed baby. Ac-
companied by her mother and nurse the
infant takes an occasional outing in an
American baby carriage, and on such oc-
casions she is the cynosure of all neigh
boring eyes. She is not much unlike
other babies, except for her attire, which
looks rather odd to Occidental people.
On her head she wears little silk cap of
Chinese manufacture, and tucked up un-
der her chin in place of the usual white
robe is little spread of dark-colored
material. The Minister'S wife is much
like other mothers in showing her pleas.

The success of the botanical institu-
tons established in Jamaica, Trinidad
and British Guiana, under the auspices
of the authorities at Kew, England, has

botanical stations are now in active

India islands. The object is to encour-
age diversified system of cultivation.
