oUrLAwRy EAST ANo WEST.
vigorous Reply of Missouri Editor to in
Alleged Superior

Alleged Superior.
1t is always the joy of a certain class
of people to seem scholarly, superior and
philosophical. Persons of this sort talk
about geographical influences on civili-
cation and spin theories about character
and climate. They do not understand
these theories, but they think they will
startle common people much as the witch
tales of the garrulous grandsire scares
the children.
People who talk about the prevalence
of outlawry in the west are of this ilk.
Given little less intelligence, and they
would operate ''divining rod" to locate
gold; little less, and they would hunt
up s'charms" in the dark of the moon to
drive away the "roomatiz;;" little less,
and they would be voodoo doctors, dis
pensing snake oil and broth made of black
cats eyes. There are very few removes
from the voodoo priest to the piggish
simpleton who gibbers about the outlaw
ry of the west.
Theirs is no more outlawry in the west
than there is in the east. Itwasn't so
very long ago that Oliver Curtis Perry,
New York highwayman, robbed train
and stole an engine on which to make
his escape. Just last week a gang of
tramps, less than 100 miles from New
York, stole train of Pullman cars and
held it "a hours, and the officers dared
not approach to modest them.
The Homestead affair happened at the
east; the Borden murder and the Christy
Warden murder both occurred In por-
ton of the east that is particularly etfete;
Mrs. Halliday of Newburg, who killed
mess of summer boarders for breakfast
and butchered her husband for tea, is an
eastern product. The man who raked
sos 1000 out of treasury vault was an
eastern man, and Carlyle Harris was of
the east eastern. He rolled his RS"
broadened his ''a's' and wore a pointed
beard.
The list might be continued indefinite
ly and the whole west searched for a
parallel to any of the horrors of the east.
The "outlawry" in the country beyond
the Missouri river sounds wise, ponder
GUS and scholarly when used on the other
side of the Alleghanies, but it will not
bear a close inspection. Outlawry has
no "pent up Utica" Ithaca, Elmira, Al
bany, Kings county or Springfield,
Mass, to contract its powers. 1t is as
broad in extent as man is depraved.-

Gravity and Impetus.

A proposition which provoked great
deal of argument and upon which much
paper was wasted and the laws of gray
ity and impetus sadly mangled was the
one about the result of dropping leaden
stone from the top of the mast of rap
idly moving vessel. The theorists got
hold of the subject and straightway ap-
piled their best known rules and maxims
to the problem. Some demonstrated that
the weight would fall straight down, and
while it was falling the ship would pass
from under it and it would fall some
where astern, or perhaps hit the man at
the wheel. Others held that it would
fall few feet from the mast, and yet
others that it would plump down right
at the foot. This problem was solved in
the usual way by one who was not a the
orist, but who could climb mast, which
he did forthwith, and dropping the
weight found that it took theimpetus of
the vessel and fell right at the foot of the
mast, exactly as it would have done had
the vessel been standing perfectly still

Cerlum Salts In Photography.

The Photographic properties of cerium
salts are beginning to be appreciated
and practically applied-that is, it is
found that light, under certain circum-
stances, rapidly reduces the persalts of
cerium to the Serious condition, and the
reaction may form the basis Of interest
ing Photographic processes, tits thought.
Gelatinized or highly sized paper is SEN
sitized by solution of ceric sulphate or
nitrate. which colors the paper strongly
yellow, and the paper being then exposed
under transparent post tive the exposed
parts become bleached by reduction to
the Serious condition. On now being
treated with.organic matters which she
ceric compounds can oxidize into COOK
ing compounds a positive image is de-
veloped on the paper. This an acid
solution of phenol gives 3 gay print,
aniline salts give green, ALPHA ,larithyla
mine blue, amido benzoic acid brown.
Cerium papers are more sensitive than
iron or manganese papers New York

Sixty Miles ofLocusts.

The African Steamship company's
steamer Winnebah, which recently ar
rived from West Africa at Liverpool,
had most unusal experience when
steaming between the ATTITUDES of Cape
Verde and st. Louis, Senegal. For go
miles the vessel steamed through locusts,
which were so thickly packed together
on the top of the water that they com
pletely covered the surface for miles
around; indeed, they appeared to be ly-
ing on the sea as far as the eye could
reach. The locusts had, no doubt, been
blown from the Morocco coast into the
sea. They resembled gigantic grasshop-
pers, and one which was secured was b
inches in length. Of course all of the
locusts had been ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

To BENEFIT Rarmaids.

A movement is on foot in England,
fostered by group of noble ladies in
terested in the subject, to protect bar
maids as to their hours of labor. 1t is
estimated that there are 100. 900 young
women in London in licensed houses
who work from 10 to is hours day on
weekdays and from seven to nine hours
on Sundays, with one Sunday off in
each month. Surely when so much is
said about an eight hour day for men
these young women onght not to be for
gotten. They find haven of rest in
their brief intervals of leisure at the
Morley rooms, established by the late
Mr.. Samuel Morley and now under the
superintendent of Miss G. NJ. Cough.
Here barmaids out of work can stay,
paying very small sum for board and
lodging. But the social part of the
work is the most valuable. Barmaids
are brought into contact with ladies of
education and reineS The rooms

4 Fish FoOler.

The latest triumph of Yankee invent
i've genius is in an india rubber fish
worm. 1t is said to be remarkably
good imitation of the common earth
worm, is indestructible and in actual
use proves as alluring to the fishes as the
genuine article. The old fisherman will
be quick to perceive its advantages. One
can equip himself for a days sport with
out digging over whole garden in his
search for bait. A handful of india rub

FOOTBALL IN M9lAY.
a Game That Might Give Our Own Players
q Irn,r Tol,intnrs.


Few Pointers.
Among the Malays football has been
in existence from time immemorial,
but it is with them essentially a game,
as. for instance, battledoor and shuttle
cock is with us, and it is not contest.
The football is rather smaller than that
used at Elton and is made of wicker
work. Those who join in the game ar
range themselves in wide circle and
kick the ball from one to another with
the inside, or, at times, with the fat of
the foot. The object of the players is
to keep the ball passing about without
its ever touching the ground or the hand
of any one. Great dexterity is shown
in this performance, and the ball is
usually kicked to very respectable
height. There seems to be no penalty
exacted from player who may kick the
ball badly or fail to kick it at all.
We had our own game of football,
and the Dutchmen, assisted by two
members of our team, scored two goals
to our four. During the game the ma
tives collected in still greater numbers,
and at its termination they begged us
to allow them to have game among
themselves. To this we assented, and
two of us acted as captains of the sides,
numbering about 80 players apiece,
most of whom stripped to the sarong,
and wrapped it round their loins, leav
ing the rest of their bodies bare.
The ball was started, and then fol-
lowed one of the most extraordinary
games of football that has ever been
seen. The game soon ceased to be a
game at ali and became veritable bat
tie.
AS when a sort of lusty shepherds try
Their force at football, care of victory
Makes them salute so rudely, breast t. breast,
That their encounter seemed too rough for jest.
Hands, arms and even teeth, were
used on all sides, blood flowed freely,
and scattered about the field were soon
to be seen the wounded, might almost
say, the slain. AS some fell exhausted
to the ground they were removed, and
their places in the fray were taken by

the crowd Of spectators.
Shouts of victory and groans of de-
feat rent the air, and at length things
became so serious that the two captains
were obliged to seize upon the ball and
bolt with it to the pavilion. The game
thus came to an end, and the players
Withdrew to their homes, with the ex-
cited crowd following at their heels
This must have been regarded as red
letter day by the native community OF

ing from the authorities that the natives
must not be allowed to take part in our
games.-Fortnightly Review.

An Artificial Foot For a Peacock.

We have heard of cat with false
teeth, horse with spectacles, a COW with
wooden leg, and now here is gentle
man writing 20 The Field to ask where
he can obtain an artificial foot for his
peacock! This speaks well for humane
people who love to be called foolish in a
good cause. 1t will be real kind of The
Field to publish the results of the naive
inquiry, and how the peacock liked bis
foot when he got it.-Boston Herald.

In the middle ages it was customary
at the funeral of any great person to
have his horse led and armor borne be-
fore his corpse, the horse being after
ward claimed as mortuary due to the
church at which the burial took place.
The armor was either reserved for the
next of kin of the deceased or else was
hung up in the church. No doubt much
of the armor suspended over tonbs is
mere undertakes trappings,r although
often considered genuine and of antiq-
uity.
Over the tombs of bishops the episco
pal inter and pastoral staff were some
times suspended, as III the case of those
in Winchester cathedral hanging over
the tomb of Bishop Morley. who died in
1906, and of those in Bromsgrove church,
Worcestershire, suspended over themon-
ument of Dr. Hall, bishop of Bristol, who
died in ITO Westminster Gazette.
