Gathering de MedIei,. Doctor.

Pharnelius, like many other physi-
clans. was much addicted to philosophy
and mathematics, but having taken to
medicine he speedily attained great
practice. Henry ii as dauphin and aft
erward as king was his constant friend.
Among the most grateful of his patients
was Catherine de Medici, who believed
that his skill had saved her from state
Of childlessness, and who gave him on
the birth of her firstborn $40 900, order
ing that like sum should be paid to him
at the birth of each succeeding son or
daughter. | think that Cardano liked
Pharnelius better than he liked Sylvius.
He says he was pale, lean man of about
80, who loved his study and was full Of
domestic affection. He was the profess.
or of medicine in the university and
the first court physician. but he must
have puzzled Cassanate greatly. for he
had an undisguised contempt for court

Where Peppermint oil Is Raised.

More than one-half of all the oil OF
peppermint, spearinint and tansy used
in the world is said to be produced and
distilled in Michigan. The center Of the
industry is st. Joseph county. Pepper.
mint plants weighing $1,000 tons when
dried are cultivated every year in the
state. From these the essential oils are
distilled. Early in spring the roots are
planted In burrows from two to three
feet apart. In a day a good workman
will plant an acre with them. A few
weeks later the rows meet and cover the
entire ground. In September the plants
mature. They are then covered with
fragrant purple blossoms. and the time
has arrived for moving. After lying in
the sun to dry they are raked into heaps
and taken to the distilleries, of which
there are about $50 in the state.
1t is estimated that $50 pounds of dried
peppermint plants produce one pound Of
oil. The yield per acre is Is pounds Of
oil. Distilled peppermint brings from
$1.o5 to s. per pound in the home mar.

lished in Mitcham, England, about $50
years ago. Early in the present century

Timing the Dean Of St. Paui...

At the Duke of Wellington's funeral,
q lady having a ticket for a reserved
seat presented herself at the wrong en-
trance to st. Paul's and knocked vigor-
ously. The dean presently opened the
door, pointed ont to her the mistake she
had made and indicated the proper en-
trance. She, quite unaware whom she
was addressing and installing him for
one of the under officials, utterly refused
again to face the seething crowd and in
sisted on being conducted TO her seat or
she would report him." OF course she
had her way and presently slipped half

less to say. the dean was delighted and
did not fail to exhibit his ''tip."-Notes

A sweeping reduction OF salaries took
place in the elevated road OF Chicago the
other day, and what was most remark
able the laborers and employees were I'M
touched. This is entirely opposite to the
course pursued in Seattle, says the Tsle-
graph, where all the high elective officials
retain big salaries while laborers and
masons are cut. 1t was discovered that
expenses were too high, and the direc-
tors decided that the officers salaries
must come down. The salary OF the
president was reduced from $4,000 to
5000. The vice presidents salary was
reduced from 5000 to 5000, and he
was required to take up the duties Of
general ticket agent to earn 1t. The
treasurer was cut from 5000 to $1,000,
and all the other officers we're dscked in
the same way; but the conductors, engi
neers and other employees get the same
pay as before. This is very unique pro-
ceeding, and probably without parallel in
the country. Most reductions begin ut
the other end.

At meeting of the British Meteoro-
logical society at London, Shelford Bid
well made remarkable experiment,
showing the effects of electricity upon
steam. 1t is well known fact that the
shadow of a jet of steam cast upon any
white background under ordinary cir
cumstances is of feeble intensity and Of
a neutral tint. But. however, If the Jet
be given discharge Of electricity just
at the moment when it comes in contact
with the air, the density of the shadow
is amazingly increased as result of con-
densation, and it assumes q peculiar
orange brown hue with lines and waves
merging into inky blackness.
Mr.. Bidwell, the only person to my
knowledge who has ever made these ex-
periments scientifically, suggests that
the electricity promotes coalescence of
the exceedingly minute particles Of wa
ter contained in the jet Of steam, thus
forming drops large enough to obstruct
the more refrangible rays Of light, but
why the color of the shadow should
change from neutral to shades of at least
three we'll defined colors he does not at
tempt to explain. From one of his late
articles I gather ideas which point to the
intense blackness Of thunderclouds be-
ing due to similar causes.-St. Louis Re.

1t seems to be source OF wonder
among many why some Of the citizens
arrested in the very late unpleasantness
were not obliged TO answer in the United
States court at Sesttle while others were.
The explanation is easily given. Judge
Hanford caused to be posted copies OF
proceedings enjoining all persons from
interfering with the operation Of Northern
Pacific trains which were under the
jurisdiction OF the United States courts.
Those who aided the commonweslers
through incendiary speeches, advice or
acts OF violence at the time they took
possession of the train will have to an
swer either as principals or accessories to
the crime charged, or for contempt Of
court. The arrests were principally made
on hearssy, and those who were not
present at the disturbance but who subse-
quently lost their heads and gave un-
limited freedom to speech committed no
crime, but simply used the great Ameri-
can prerogative OF making asses Of them
selves. When the law officers, after in
vestigation, learned that folly was the
most serious charge that could be laid at
their doors further prosecution was
dronped

MAYOR AND COUNCIL FOR SIX WEEKS.
Reorgn Carried and Now
North Yakima VIII Have
Another Election.

The election held on Monday last re-
suited In the carrying of the reorganiza-
ton provision by SO majority. There
was a general feeling that it would be
defeated, and as a consequence light
vote was polled and little interest was
displayed. On the head Of the ticket the
vote couldn't well be much closer, w. Fl.
Redman receiving liz votes to I76 for
w. L. Jones.
For the council two OF the candidates
on the old charter ticket were successful
and five on the new. The council will be
composed of the following members: H.
II. Allen, Walter Walton. Matt Bartholet,
Frank Sinclair, J. j. Carpenter, A. F.
Switzer and James Greene.
As reorganization was carried another
election for mayor and councilmen must
be called within six weeks. There was
some talk OF contesting the reorganiza-
ton measure, on the grounds that the
call for the election was made without
the sanction of majority of the board Of
councilmen, but no action to this end
will probably be taken, as it would only
result in keeping the city continually
stirred up with elections. The council, as
now constituted, is understood to be
favorable to the retention OF the present
city officers, with the exception, perhaps,
of the street commissioner.
