PRACTICAL WoMAN's RIGHTS.
A Lesson In Street-Car Etiquet Taught
by n Boston Woman.

It was between 6 and Z O'Clock in the
evening and the fremont street car
was crowded, says the Boston Herald.
A good many of the passengers were
workingmen, and those fortunate
enough to have a seat, even if it was q
very narrow me, seemed to lose half

acknowledge his defeat. He got up
and offered his seat to the motherly-

Instead of quietly dropping into the
vacapcy, as is usual in such cases, tho

"No, thank you, sir. i am as welh

Since the Franco-Prussian war in
1870 progress has been steadily made
in the breeding and training of carrier
pigeons for military use. There are
times when neither railways nor tele-
graphs serve to convey urgent mes
sages from one commander TO another
or to the home government. For that
purpose nothing has been SO sue
cesstul as carrier pigeons. Ger
many has been especially pro-
gressive in developing this branch
of her military service. The German
emperor sent back the homing birds
with messages TO his empress from
time to time during his famous visit
to England in his own yacht. The
French naval vessels carry birds for
sea service, and now the officers of
American war ships are taking the
matter up and training birds success
fully. Several messages were sent
lately from u fleetoff Fortress Mon
roe to New York and Washington by
this means. Swift birds can travel
40 miles an hour. The message is
written upon tissue paper and tied by
a silken thread to the pigeons leg OF
underneath its wing. In some in
stances the message, after it has been
written, is photographed in greatly
reduced size upon a thio collodion
film, and this substance is used in.
stead of the tissue paper. A magni
flying glass is in such cases necessary
to decipher the writing. The French
declare that the swallow Is superior
as a messenger bird to the pigeon

flights. II now some experts coult

The Rainmakers' Secret,

The Kansas City Journal claims
that local rainmakers at GOodland,
Kan, nave discovered the secret of
the rainmaker, Melbourne, who has
practiced his art So widely. 1t is
believed that the whole secret is the
formation of an electrical storm
center, or nucleus, around which the
atmosphere shall gather until it
becomes a storm, and rain is
precipitated. As all storms, of what
ever degree, are accompanied by cleo
trical phenomena, these rainmakers
think that electricity should be the
ruling spirit in the formation of
artificial rain. In pursuance of this
idea they form large quantities OF
hydrogen gas and send it into the air
heavily charged with electricity,

The First Lynching I'm That

The first l~ynching on the new
Mesaba iron range near Duluth,
Mimi, occurred last week. An un-
known man enticed two little girls,
one aged 5 and the other 6, into the
woods at the village of Mountain
Iron and criminally assaulted them.
As soon as it was learned that the
deed had been committed the word
vas passed around the mining camps
and work was at once suspended. A
party OF a dozen which first started in
the search for the miscreant was in
half an hour augmented by a hun
dred others, and throughout the night
the search vas kept up without OBJ
tanning ever a clue of where the man
had secreted himself. As soon as
daylight appeared in the morning
over 200 men joined in securing the
hills and woods in the vicinity of the
scene of the crime and every place Of
possible concealment was gone over
again and again. At noon to-day the
searchers were rewarded for their
efforts by the
