Bear WinterinC nens.

Along Grisley Bear River, in tho Rock.
les, there are many bear haunts or win.
tering dens, which the Indian guides
point out to travellers. According to In.
dian stories, bear will lie in dark and
secluded retreat all winter without food
or nourishment, sucking its paws. The
bear does not burrow in the ground, but
covers himself with fallen leaves. Over
the den the snow is often many feet
deep, and the bears hiding place is only
discovered by an air hole so small that
nothing but the keen eye of a savage
could find it. The Indians say that the
Rocky Mountain bear lies thus in a tor
pid state from December until March. -

Cnrinus FeAtS EXPLAINED.

Ihe tendency of the credulous to ac-
count tor wonderful feats of jugglery by
the supposition that supernatural power
is used by the juggler, or, as in the case
of Professor Kellar's suggestion concern
ing the feats of Hindu fakirs, that the
iuggler has discovered natural laws still
unknown in civilized lands, has recently
been shown with respect to Colonel de
Rochas's very curious experiments with
hypnotic subjects in Paris. The Colonel
believed that he could transfer the SEN
sitiveness Of human being to glass OF
water and store it up in the fluid, OF
could draw it out Of the body and place
it in layers around the subject. His ex-
perimCnts seemed to prove that this
"exteriorization OF sensitiveness" &C.
tually took place, and they were as won
derful, to all appearance, as the feats Of
the Hindu fakirs.
The opponents of what is called
ThcosOphy and certain disciples Of mod
ern Spiritua!ism at once found in the
feats performed By Colonel de Rochai
and his subjects ample confirmation of
the soundness of their doctrines aud
theories, and the descriptions of the pro-
cess Of Decentralization began TO be
heard on the platform, where they were
mixed up with distorted views OF the
electrical experiments of Tesla and spec.
ulations about the activity of the Mahat-
mas.
Now comes a hard headed and in
credulous Englishman who says that he
has made experiments of his own with
the susceptible subjects who permitted
Colonel de Rochas to rob them Of their
sensitiveness 0nd sccrete it in glasses of
water, and asserts, aud apparently
proves, that they are tricksters who i'm
posed upon the good Colonel. And so
certain Theosophists ana professors of
Spiritualism are suddenly deprived of a
considerable stock in trade, aud some
interesting but highly fanciful theories
must be laid on the shelf. New York

like log, while the cubs started to
scamper off up the bank.
"The half.starvei marksmsn fired two

made for tree, and We killed it, too.
One of the cubs We ate on the spot, raw
and without salt or otner seasoning. We
soon went into camp for the night, but
before retiring each took good-sizei
chunk of boiled cub. In the morning
the remainder Of the second cub was de.
voured and the meat of the mother bear
was sampled. We then commenced
building boat to take US on our jour
ney. Meanwhile the fresh bear meat
had wrought sad havoc with our uuac-
customel ssomachs aud the systems OF
three of the men.
"Thus it required five days Labor to
complete the boat, and when our party
yain started, this time ailOat in q strong
craft in remarkably swift stream, there
was not mouthful of food in sight.
We foated down the river in this way

cure game, fish or food Of any kind

A Musical Crab.

Among the animals Doctor Alcock has
specially observed is the red ocypode
crab which swarms on all the sandy shores
OF India. The bigger of its two chele,
or nippers, bears across the palm o
long, finely toothod rid ,e, and on one
of the basal joints of the "arm," against
which the "palm" can be tightly closed,
there is second similar ridge. When
the "palm" is so folded against the base
of the farm" the first ridge can be worked
across the second like bow across a
fiddle, only in this case the bow is sew
eral times larger than the fiddle.
And now as to the way these crabs
play their fiddles. A robber crab enters
the burrow of another. When the right
full owner discovers the intruder he utters
few broken tones of rcmonstance, on
hearing which the intruder, if permitted,
will at once leave the burrow. II the
intruder be prevented from making his
escape the low and broken tones of the
rightlul owner gradually rise in loudness
and shrlllness and frequently until they
become continuous low pitched whir
or high pitched growl, the burrow acting
as q resonator. Mature.

A serious danger mensces the health
Of the people OF this country in the nu-
msrous alum baking powders that are
now being urged upon the public.
There is no question as tO the detri-
mental effect Of these powders upon the
svstem. Every Board Of Health, every
nhysician, will tell you of the I'm whole
some qualities they add to the food.
Some countries have absolutely pro-
bibited the sale of bread containing
alum.
Even small doses OF alum, given to
children, have produced fatal results,
while cases of heartburn, indigestion,
gripping, constipation, dyspepsia, and
various kindred gastric troubles from
irritation of the mucous membrane,
caused by the continuous use OF food
prepared with the alum or alum phos-
phate powders, are familiar in the prac-
tice of every physician.
1t is not possible that any prudent
housewife, any loving mother, will
knowingly use an article Of foud that
will iniure the health OF her household,
or perhaps cause the death OF her chill

How shall the dangerous alum powders
be distinguished And how shall the
danger to health from their use be

Generally, alum powders may be known
from the price at which they are sold,
or from the fact that they are aeon
panied BY gift, are disposed of under
some scheme. The alum powder costs
out few cents apound to mike, and Is
often sold at 20 or % cents pound.
If some present is gwen with 1t, the

Artificial Maple Sugar.

Decorations or extract of the wood or
bark of trees are frequently used for
favoring sirups or sugars. Different ex-
tracts differ in taste. The hickory tree
1t is said,yields an extract that will i'm
part the flavor of the maple, and Daily's
method of producing artificial maple
strip or sugar is as follows:
Make an extract of hickory bark or
wood by allowing water to percolate
through the same. The bark or wood
may be ground, or sawdust thercfrom
used. Hot water may be used, or the
material boiled In water. The strength
of the extract may be increased by in
crease of the quantity of the wood or
bark.
To one gallon of hot or boiling sugar
sirup add say three tablespoonfuls OF the
hickory extract. 1t is said the effect of
the extract is to produce a flavor that rem
ders the sirup indistinguisha BILE from
genuine maple sugar. If the strip is
boiled down, sugar resembling maple
sugar in taste is produced. Scientific

Rubber Clothing.

The manufacture of gossamer clothing
and also of rubber goods in general, is,
1t appears, to be carried on by means of
new and improved process. The
method proposed is for the compound
ing of rubber and the reproduction Of
colors in figures, checks and plaids, by
printing these on a rubber surface on
gossamer garments, giving to the latter
the appearance of the most popular
pattern of "mackintoshes," and at a
very reasonable cost. An important adj
vantage possessed by this method is
that it does away with the use of cloth
cemented to rubber on the inside, and
furnishes light, elastic, durable and
waterproof garment. The rubber is Oh
the outside, and will not gum or crack

New Styles in Ships.

A new idea in shipbuilding has been
developed at Belfast, Ireland. There is
an immense vessel on the stocks there
which has no keel for about 100 feet
from the sternpost, while six feet of the
sternpost IS cut away, the hull of the
vessel sloping from the horizontal for the
100 feet until level with the curtailed
stcrnpost. The bottom of the sternpost
and the actual stern Of the vessel are not
connected in any way. The vessel is a
twin screw and the propelIers will work
through a small aperture, with nothing
between them and the water beneath.
They will therefore always be in un.
broken water. Boston Journal.
