ton. The ball will obey the impulse
thus communicated to it and roll in
the opposite direction. Ask anyone
present to do the same thing. To the
astonish,nent of as many as attempt
the experiment it will be found impos-
sible to put the ball in motion, no ma t.
ter how hard it is pressed by the
finger.
The secret is that. unperceived by
the others, you have recourse to q
slight sui,terfnge. You simply 11loister
your finger with saliva. a precaution
which enables you without effort to.
drive the ball across the ia BILE.
The phenomenon is easily explained.
When the finger is dry it does not slide
over the ball as it appears to do. 1t is
the ball which slides and turns under
the finger: The rotary movement thus
produced is in the opposite direction
from the one the ball should take to roll
forward. and consequently defeats the
intention of the one who is driving it.
On the contrary, it the finger be moist
ened, it slides over the ball, the latter
then being impelled forward to great
er less distance. according to the
force expended by the finger.
This trick is not confined to the bill
lard room. 1t may be successfully per-
formed on an ordinary table with a
wooden or even a rubber ball.

Lowered NJ. Pictet's System Of Cold
Treatment.
What is the influence exerted on life
by an extraordinarily low temperature?
This is the remarkably interesting
question that has recently been de-
termined by q famous scientist in
France. Raoul Pictet. His first exper-
iments, which made him more or less
celebrated, were in ,liquefying per-
manent gases, such as hydrogen, oxy-
gen and nitrogen, which he did by pro-
ducing temperature from 100 to 200
degrees below zero.
In choosing his specimens Of life for
testing the effects of excessive cold the
professor chose birds, mammals, ba-
trachians. ophidians, insects, infusoria
and microbes. He studied these first
in the normal functions, their nour-
ishment, respiration and muscular ac-
ton, and then he plunged these speci-
mems into an air bath which was sur
rounded by an envelope of glass with
a sufficient space between to introduce
volatile liquids, carbolic acid, ETC.,
that could be varied in temperature
from 10 to 200 degrees. Through the
glass of the two receptacles containing
the living creature the scientist was
able to study the conditions and fire.
quency of respiration, the pulsation of
the heart, the comparative temperature
of the body and the modification of
sensibility.
The most interesting of all the ex-
peri,nents was upon a dog which was
placed in a large glass vessel and put
in the outer envelope, which at once

vented and patented lately. This is
to force the water up with an air
blast.
A slender pipe is let down in the
center of the we'll tube far enough to
be submerged to q reasonable distance,
and is provided at the end with an ejec-
tor and q guide which keeps it -cqui-
distant from the walls of the we'll. A
current from an air compressor is sent
down through this inner pipe, and by
proper regulation of the kerosene. a
steady and ample supply of water can
be obtained at the top. The two fluids
arc separated there by special
mechanism; and If any goes back into
the well from the earth, it escapes
with the air. All gases are cooled by
expansions: and therefore the mir,

tends to reduce the temperature of the
water; and if the liquid be drawn for
drinking purposes this will render it
more potable IN summer. Claims are
put forward that this system is more
economical and yields more freely than

which the dog rested of II degrees be-

animal gave of any discomfort was an
increased rapitlity of re.pira ton. and
the temperature was gradually de-
creased for twenty-five minutes, when
the dog seemed % have become ac-
customed to the conditions. and ate
with nvidity a piece of bread that had
been put in with him. It WAS noticed
that he refused to eat this same bread
before being placed in the bath.
After an hour and ten minutes the
circulation of the animals blood. and
consequently the pulsation of the
heart, became very rapid. The
temperature was now rapidly reduced
without apparently any special dis
comfort and without any particular
change. excepting that the legs be-
came frozen, but appeared to give no
discomfort. At the instant the tenn
perature reached % the dog died as
though he had been Observation-Disclosures
ously.
The deduction from this experiment
would seem to be that animal life can
stand n much more intense degree of
cold than has been generally believed
heretofore.
The experiments made with fish
were productive of most surprising re-
suits. both in the variation of severity
in temperature which the different
forms of fish can live under, and also
in the assurance it gives Of the pos
session by some fishes of Il warm blood
which has not been generally accepted
heretofore. and also of the marvellous
power OF resistance possessed by other
creatures. a tench, which is a fish Of
the carp family and has been generally
considered as being the most tenacious
of life of any of the finny tribe, aied in
a temperature of 81 degrees below
zero. Frogs bore the temperature of
placidity, but at $50 degrees they all
died. An ordinary snake taken frcm
the fields resisted death up to OAK de-
grees. when 1t succumbed. s.
centipede was active and full Of

A Nest-Building Fish.

One of the queerest denizens of the
deep, and one which could very proper
ly be called an archaeological wonder.
is tho gouramis the famous nest-build-
ing fish Of the Oriental seas. These
fish are very plentiful in the waters of
Cochin China. Java, Sumatra and
Borneo. At the breeding they pair off
like birds and, selecting n favorable
spot in shallow water among aquatic
plants and grasses, build large spher-
ical nests OF floating weeds and plaster
them over with mud. The broad, fat
fms used in this last operation are at
tached to the abdomen and are
wholly different from anything in the
fin line known to naturalists. The
full-grown female gouramis is 6 feet
long and weighs 10 pounds. The eggs
of this queer fish, which are deposited
in the mud-plastered nest, number
from 500 to 1000.

One element Of difficulty in bringing
Spanish. American offenders against
the laws to Justice in our territories
derived from Mexico is the ties OF race
and kinship. An atrocious criminal OF
Mexican blood may be- protected
through years of q lawless career by
relatives and family friends who them
selves are eminently respectable and,
except where the safety of friends or
Kindred are concerned, law-abiding.
This protection is continued after the
criminal has been brought into the
courts. in the way Of the bribing and
the packing of juries and in the
providing of avenues of escape from
prison. Thus for years the MUIR
derer and outlaw Porfirio Trujillo
has gone at large, or, when appre-
hended. has found it easy to escape the
penaltyE of his crimes. His present
headquarters are in the Manzano
mountains, east of Albuquerque, in
eastern Bernalilo and Valencia coun-
ties, where, with a price on his head,
he perpetrates his depredations and
outrages with u high and defiant hand.
One form of plundering with Trujillo
and his gang is to go into a flock of
sheep and drive off hundreds at a
time. or to run off cattle from the
plains ranges, kill them, and sell the
meat to inha bitants of the mountain
towns They do not hesitate at MUIR
