Dita leant suddenly forward and whis
pered to Sir Edward
'Would it not be better to open the
windows?"
Yes, you are quite right" and he
proceeded to do SO in spite of the rush of
cold air which came in.
There is goodish piece of straight
| road up to the home farm" said Jack
| between his teeth to Sir Edward. "but
the corner is bad, if he cannot pull up

The carriage rushed on more and more
wildly. Something dark seemed to fash

THAT tool James has jumped off, ex-
claimed Jack. "He must be killed at

hard, stretched out Of the window, and

There was no answer, for the mans
whole strength was required; but q side
view of the horses with their heads we'll
down and the foam flying from their bits,
told its own tale.
Jack drew his head in, and looking at
Sir Edward, gave an almost impercepti.
! bic shake of the head. Perdita saw, and
her face grew paler still: she suddenly
bent forward ana touched Sir Richard S
hands, and stopping very close to him,
whispered
"Sir Edward"
Yes"

His answer was to squeeze her little
fingers very tight-there was a violent
rocking they were pitched from one side
| to another-a terrific crash, and she
knew no more.
Jack Lee Aston was the first to emerge
from the wreck of the omnibus, and be-
ing very active and slight, and moreover
having had the good luck to be on the
upQermoSt side, he was able to scramble
sideways out of the door. With the
help of the coachman, who limped very
much, but had escaped without serious
injury, he succeeded in freeing the
horses, wkc remained quiet, trembling
violently. Then they proceeded to ex-
tricate the ladies one after the other.

BRIDGE OF AGATE.
a Fortified Tree Spans Chasm in Far
Away Arizona.

Il returned Tree spans thasln IN Il ar
Away Arizona.
\ mining expert sent to investigate
some Arizona properties for Denver
capitalists recently returned and reports
the finding of most remarkable nat
ural bridge formed by tree of agatized
wood spanning a canyon forty-tive feet
in width, SAYS the jewelers. Circular
The tree had at some remote time
fallen when it became imbcdded in the
silt of some great inland sea or mighty
water overflow.
The silt became in time sandstone,
and the wood gradually passed through
the stages Of naturalization until it is
now a wonderful tree of solid agate.
In after years water washed and ate
away the sandstone until canyon -
feet in width has been formed, the
Hinty like substance ofthe agatized wood
having resisted the erosion ofthe water
flow.
Fully fifty feet Of the tree rests on one
side and can be traced but how far its
other end lies buried III the sandstone
cannot be determined without blasting
away the rock.
The trunk visible above the canyon
varies in size from / feet to ; feet in
diameter. Where the bark has been
broken and torn away the characteristic
,QlOrs Of jasper and agate are seen. To
the naked eye the wood is beautiful.
Under microscope or miners magni-
tying glass the brilliancy ofthe colorings
are clearly brought out in all their Won
drous beauty.

Minute Shells.

There is sand bank at COnnemara.
On the west coast of Ireland, that is the
Mecca of every curiosity seeker who is
ence, says the st. Louis Republic.
As general thing sand banks are not
great attraction, but in this particular
case the attractive power is not in the
sand itself, but in the millions of ex-
tinct miniature shells, which are almost
as numerous as the grains Of sand with
which they are intermingled.
The largest of these little wonders is
smaller than the smallest pinhead, and
some of them so minute that they can
easily be put through the eye of a COM
mon sewing needle, yet each is as per-
feet as the pearly nautilus, the spider
she'll, the sea urchin or any other ma
rine Oddity.
They are of all shapes and forms
Imaginable One will have the perfect
outlines of miniature basket, another
will look like a fairy's tobacco box.
while a third needs no effort of the
Imagination to give it the form of bot
tie.
The fashshells of Ceylon and Aus
tralia are the only living representatives
Of these genealogical wonders. Nat
urallsts who have examined the Cey-
lonese t1ashshells say that each is filled
with a tiny bit of jelly-lke substance,
which, of course, is the animal itself,
but which is so intinitcsimal that no
distinction can be observed between
head and heart, mouth and stomach.

CONTRACT LABOR COMING IN.
Mr. Lodge Tells Of Discoveries by the I'M
migration Committee.

migration Committee.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June Ex-senator
Lodge, of Massachusetts, arrived in
Washington to-day from New York,
where he had been attending a
meeting of the Senate immigra
ton committee in that city
In an interview Mr.. Lodge says
that the committee, while it took mass
of unlnterestlng testimony, has Sc
cured some very valuable points on the
Immigration question, which will be of
great value in the future He
says that the committee has con-
elusive evidence that contract laborers
are arriving in this county at different
points unlawfully and that the evidence
adduced will be used to prevent this
when Congress is again in session.
Speaking Of the issues coming before
the next session of Congress, Mr.. Lodge
says the money question will be the
most important He believes that
the Sherman law can be re-
pealed provided that IN connection
with it, the repeal of the state bank tax
law is not asked. If this is attacked,
Lodge says, the Republicans, both in
the House and Senate, will not vote
solidly for the repea. Of the sherman
law. He is uncertain as to the
action of the Senate in any event but if
only the repeal of the Sherman law is
brought to the front, without any such
issues, the plan will be successfully
carried out.

The Hen Language.

NJ. Prevot du Houdray, a French sci
enlist, interested in the attempts of
Prof Garner to learn the monkey Ian
guage, took it into his head that if
monkeys could talk to one another
there was no reason in the nature of
things why other animals could not do
too, and procuring a monograph, he
proceeded to the barnyard to investigate
the speech of the fowls there. After a
large number of interesting expert
ments, he concluded that the hens
have singular language, by means of
which they communicate with one an
other. His deductions are said to be
marvellous, and he is now lecturing be-
fore the Academy of Sciences on the
hen lanpIlape

Deafness Can't BE Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. There is only one
way TO cure Deafness, and that is by coustitu-
uonal remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition Of the mucous lining OF the
EUstachian Tube. When this tube gets infa1ned
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when 1t is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness caused by Catarrhl that We
cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send

Play and Display.

There IS substratum of sense IN the
following anecdote which should make
tie girls look serious:
In a deaf and dumb asylum in
neighboring State, the instructor has
been teaching the negative force of the
prefix dis, giving as examples such
words as these: Obey, Disobey; re-
card disregard, etc. Soon he called
upon the pupils for illustrations of the
same principles, and one unsophisti
Gated youth, evidently having in mind
the rough games boys play, and also
the fact that girls do not share in these
games, inDocentlv wrote on the board:
BOYS play; girls display. Good
cheer.

FOOD FOR POULTRY.

The most expensive Of all food We
find to be barley, au naturel. Not
only 10 a considerable proportion
thrown about and wasted but much
that IL swallowed is never digested,
We therefore give it as change and
an indulgence, and by no means as the
staple Of their food. Indian meal is
the best staple, according to cur ex-
perieLce. It is we'll scalded, that the
swelling may be done before eating,
instead of after, thus avoiding various
malac.ies and perils from overeating
Broken rice, we'll boiled, is good to q
certain extent.
Mali dust is a valuable resource.
The demand IS becoming SO great that
probably it will soon cease to be
cheap food; but while it remains so it
is a rcal boon both to the fowls and their
owners. They will eat almost any
thing that is sprinkled with malt dust,
and six-shillings sack of it goes q
long way. A certain proportion of
greeL food, and also of animal food, is
indispensable. Lettuce leaves, turnip
tops, cabbage leaves, celery, should be
thrown to them. They should have
access to grass, to pick seeds and in
sects; and it is we'll to put fresh sod
into the poultry yard whenever such
valuable thing may be spared,
All the worms and insects that come
in the gardeners way should be pre-
sented to them; and when insects are
scarce scraps Of raw meat minced as
fine rs pins heads should be given.
Add finely chopped eggs for infant
chicks and ] think the bill of fare is
complete. AS for the pepper corn,
which old wives recommend as the first
thing to be swallowed, we reprobate
the notion AS We should in the case of
any other newborn creature. In fact,
it irritates the crop very mischiev-
ou3ly if it gives out its SAVIOR, and if it
does not dissolve it is nothing

WHICH IS THE BEST COW?

Every ONE in a while some dairy
man remarks that he does not need O
test to tell him which are the best
dairy cows; he can tell by looking at
them. He just sells the fat ones and
keeps the thin ones. Quite often this
is the standard by which COWS are
judged: the thinner they are when Civ
ing milk the better dairy COWS they are
considered. There is, of course. some
reason in this. We know that COW
that uses Ter food to put flesh on her
back, instead of putting milk and fat
into the pail, is not the most profit
@ble COW for the dairy. But to jump
to the conclusion that because COW
IS poor in flesh she must of necessity
be a good dairy COW is drawing a con
clusion that is not justified by facts.
There are some beef COWS that vii!
eat good ration every day and keep
in just fairly good condition, while
there are others in the same herd that
on the same feed keep their ribs
and backs nicely covered with flesh
The latter are good feeders and the
former poor feeders. The latter have
the natual ability to make better use
of their feed than the former; they
have feeding quality.
1t is just the same with dairy COWS,
some are good feeders and some are
poor feeders, Some keep THU in flesh
because they are using the greater
part of their food to make milk and
fat while others stay in poor flesh sim
ply because they have lot the natural

CURING HORSE hair.

For the curled hair used for mat
tresses the following process Is used:
The hair is first washed in hot water
and softened, and it is then spun into
ropes while vet and warm and kept SO
until it gets the required set and curl.
It is prepared for use by picking 1t
apart. The ropes are hard twisted, so
that when they are taken apart the hair
curls up snd becomes quite elastic. 1t
will hardly pay to curl ones own hair,
as 1t may be purchased more cheaply
than it can be gathered by any person
not in the business. Most OF the
''horse" hair in the market is the pro-
duct of horned cattle, the switch of the
tail being used fog this purpose.-New
York Times.
