BEARS AND PIGS.
They Live Together In Perfect Harmony
In the Nation al Park.

They Live Together In Perfect Harmony
in the National Park.
OF late years umber of bears have
made practice of living about the ho-
tells and camps in the park. They are
becoming parasites" or bruin tramps,
taking what they want, and making no
effort for self-support, and living on the
table waste. They are hog robbers" no
longer worthy a sportsman's attention.
One very large bear at the Upper Gey-
ser Basin hotel is as regular about com
ing to his meals as star boarder
Once when the yardman was taking
large piece of waste meat to the pig
pen bruin met him in the trail. The
yardman, not at all frightened, held
out the meat. The bear walked up,
took it from his hand, went to one
side short distance, and ate the grub
as unconcerned as though it was the
proper thing TO have his meals brought
to him. The bears get in the pens, eat
with the pigs, or rather drive them to
one side and eat what they want.
believe but one hog has been killed by
them the last summer. At the slaugh-
ter-house in Swan Lake basin at least
nine bears live on the refuse which is
thrown to the hogs. They get into the
pen, quarrel with the pigs, cuff them
out of the way, often making them
squeal with pain, and fight each other,
the big ones driving the others off So
far they have not attempted to kill any
of the pigs or sheep that are corraled
near by every night The herder and
the butcher have become so used to the
bears that they do not fear them much
except when they meet them after
dark; then they are willing to give
half the road. There are about twenty
five bears who ate living about this
way during the season. They are in
color black, brown, grizzly-gray and
cinnamon. Forest and Stream.

1t is the better plan for each indi-
vidual, young or old, to sleep alone. In
sleep, the body is throwing off excretory
substances; the bad odor of close, un-
aired sleeping room, is sufficient evil
dence of the presence of the effete mat
ters thus thrown off. With two per-
sons under the same covering, the
amount of foul body exhalations is
doubled, consequently the atmosphere
surrounding the body is very bad The
bed clothing should be as porous as pos
sible for the better ventilation of the
body, and consequently wooden blank
cts make the best covers. 1t is some-
times recommended that quilts and
comfortables shall be lined with paper
to make them warmer, but this is un-
wholesome, for paper keeps the air
from circulating through the bed as it
should for health. One German physi-
clan recommends a single bed for each
person, and that is the truly hygienic

gloomy, though he saw the sun shine
and the snow sparkle, and heard the

But Laddie was little fellow - very

many ways of amusing himself when
shut up in the house, especially when
mamma was too weak and tired to
read to him or invent games. This

Professor Douglass has succeeded in
manufacturing miniature cyclones and
tornadoes by means of electricity, thus
proving the electrical character Of the
prairie terrors." In carrying out his
plans he suspended large copper plate
by silken threads and charged it from a
battery. He then used arsenious acid
gas, whereupon the combination Of gas
and electricity could be seen hanging
from the under side of the plate in the
form of perfect funnel shaped cyclone
cloud. When everything was ready
the professor swung the plate and the
miniature cyclone to and fro across u
table Uttered with matches, pieces Of
paper, pens, pencils, etc. The lighter
objects were instantly sucked up, the
heavier scattered in all directions. The
effects were exactly those of destructive
cyclones.
These curious experiments explain cy-
clouic phenomena. Low clouds become
charged with electricity, descend and
form a connection with the earth. Then
a violent electrical commotion ensues,
finally settling into a whirl which con-
tinues until an electric equilibrium is
established. ST. Louis Republic.

this heat is not available for raising the
weight and giving the clockwork re-
newed lease of mouvity.
The solar system, according to the
best modern scientific belief, is dy-
namically analogous to the clockwork
in all the essentials of our consideration.
Not going back in thought to a begin
ming Of which science knows nothing,
let us compare the solar system as it
was 5000 years ago with the solar sys-
TEN as il is now. Let our analogue be
a clockwork which three hours ago was
known to be going with its weight par
TALLY run down, and which is still go
ing with its weight not yet wholly run
down.
During these 5000 years the sun has
been giving out radiant heat eight be-
ing included in the designation radiant
heath in all directions, propagated at
the rate of about nine and half million
million kilometers per year, and there
fore twenty eight and half thousand
million million kilometers in 5000 years.
We do not know whether the light which
left the sun 3,000years ago is still travel
ing outward with almost undiminished
energy or whether nearly all is already
dissipated in heat, warming the lumini-
ferrous ether or ponderable bodies which
have INSTRUCTED its course. We may,
think, feel sure that it is partly still
travelling outward as radiant heat, and
partly spent (or dissipated) in warming

A phalanx in the military affairs Of
Greece was square battalion or body
of soldiers formed in ranks and files
compact and deep with their shields
Joined and pixies crossing each other so
as to render it almost impossible to
break it, At first the phalanx consisted
of 1000 men, but this number was after
ward doubled by Philip of Macedon,
and the double phalanx is hence often
called the Macedonian phalanx. Poly
bus describes it thus:
ut was square of pikemen, consist
ing of sixteen in flank and 500 in front.
The soldiers stood so close together that
the pixies of the fifth rank extended
three feet beyond the front. The rest,
whose pixies were not serviceable owing
to their distance from the front, couched
them upon the shoulders Of those who
stood before them, and SO locking them
together in file pressed forward to sup
port and push on the former rank, by
which means the assault was rendered
more violent and irresistible" The
spears of those behind also stopped the
missiles of the enemy. Each mans pike
was twenty.three feet long, The word
phalanx is also used for any combina-
ton of people distinguished for solidity
and firinness. a grand phalanx consist

CRADLE OF CHOLERA.
How the Epidemic Originated
and Spread.
The Story of Deaths March From
Asia and Southeastern Europe
to More Civilized Regions.

WASHINGTON, Oct. TO- Associated
Press The marine hospital bureau
has caused to be translated and pub
lished an article from the leading medi-
cal journal of Constantinople, describ-
ing the routes by which the cholera
spread over Asia and Europe. The
article states that the eastern and
southern part of the trans-Caucasus was
the focus of the epidemic, and in a
period of little over two months, or
from June 20 to Aug. "a, there were
about $4,000 choleraic deaths in the
Caucasus, out OF a population OF about
5000, 900, or one death in about 200 OF
the inhabitants.
The Caucasus has been one of the
most virulent focuses ever known in a
cholera epidemic. As to the history of
the progress of the disease. the article
states: "If we cast glance over the
progress of the epidemic we will see
that 1t started from Djellabad, a city in
Afghanistan situated between Peshawur
and Cabul, about the month of Deem
Der, 1891 that IT slowly traversed the
mountainous territory separating Cabul
from Herat, which latter place it reach
Meched, in the Khorrissan, about May
81, from four to five months after leav-
ing Djellabad, but from Meched it
reached the trans-Caspian railway
about Jnne 20, appearing at the station
of Askalabad and Ouzormada, on the
Caspian sea. 1t was therefore six
months and more in travelling from
Aighanistan to the Caspian sea, but
there it encountered other railways and
routes Of navigation and travelled to st.
Petersburg. in northern Russia, and
Hamburg, in less than two months.
The rapidity Of its progress was there
fore qusdrupled during the second stage
of its line of travel. AT the time OF
writing cholera exists in three-iourths
of the immense territory OF Russia, in
some ports OF Germany, at Antwerp,
Havre, etc. There is still cause to dread
the cholera in the Caucasus and Persia,
but the conditions prevailing there are
less threatening than during the month

A nsacldne fer Sitting Ashes.

A machine has been invented winch
separates ashes from boiler fires into
three portions Uubuned fuel, called
breeze or cinders, which can be mixed
with coal and burned over again, or for
blacksmiths' fires, being the finest ma
terial procurable; fine dust, useful for
builders in place Of sand; clinkers, use
full for roadmaSing, paths, etc.
The machine consists of tank or COM
partment kept full of water. The ashes
or breeze to be cleansed rest on graf
ing, which is covered by fine perforated
copper plate. a free passage of water
is allowed, and at the same time the
breeze or fuel is prevented from falling.
The separation is effected by an agi-
tator worked by crank shaft. At zach
downward plunge of the agitator the
water is forced upward through the per-
forated copper bottom, causing the ma
terial to rise. The rubbish, owing to its
greater specific gravity, is precipitated
to the bottom on the return stroke; at
the same time the breeze, or unburned
fuel, being lighter, works to the surface.
At each stroke of the crank body OF
water and quantity Of clean breeze is
carried to a plate, which is also per-
forated, so as to allow the water to fall
into the machine and thence through a
valve to be used over again, and the
clean breeze is swept by revolving
brush over a ledge. The clinker ac-
cumulates on the perforated copper
plate, and from time to time is allowed
TO escape by valve in the body of the
machine, whence it is raised by an ele-
vator and discharged. - Pittsburg Dis

The art of making love on the stage
is one that few actors acquire" said an
old Thespian. "A woman naturally
clings to a man with grace, grasping his
arm with cleverly implied passion or
tenderly nesting on his bosom. But a
man doesn't get on to the Rstheticism OF
the thing with the same ease and grace.
Harry Lacy was dream Of lover &.
though. He had a trick of weaving his
arms about a woman with a sinuous, Sc
ductive movement that brought little
lump into the throat of every woman i'll
the audience. He always preferred ap'
preaching a woman from behind and
then drawing her back into arms that
seemed made for that purpose. Hoff
isn't bad lover by any means. Ask the
St. Louis girls if they don't think he
makes very few false moves.
Funny thing, while on this topic,
but you know when Barrymore was
supporting Langtry they hated each
other worse than poison. He declares
she would put pins in her bodice to stick
him, and they kept up regular quarrel
the whole time they were billing and
cooling and embracing in most ardent
fashion. Don't hold me so tight, sir;
you have evidently never had your
arms around a lady, Langtry would
say in whisper. If you knew how
thoroughly distasteful this is to me you
would never accuse me of getting near
you, he would reply. Do people ever
make love on the stage? Not that
know of; it is all purely business. ~
