HOW Flies Walk ON Window Panss

The microscope reveals the neat con-
trivance which enables a fly to walk up
window pane or defy the laws of
gravity by gliding along, back down
ward, on the ceiling. The magnifer
shows the foot to be made up of two
pads covered with fine, short hair, each
pad having hook above it. Behind
each pad is a bag filed with sticky
liquid which oozes out whenever the fly
puts his foot down. The amount which
is pressed out of each foot is very small
indeed, but taken all together it is am
ply sufficient to hold the insect in any
position he chooses. st. Louis Repub

Insurgents Using Dynamite with Murder
Effect in Every Engagement
NEW YORK, Nov. Ca Herald spe-
Fla, says: Important advices received
from Santa. Clara, say the rebels are
using dynamite with murderous effect
in every engagement. Great terror al
ready exists among the Spanish troops
and the government is endeavoring to
suppress the news in order that the
new arrivals from the peninsula may
not be panic stricken in advance. The
method employed by the rebels to
break the enemy's line consists in
throwing bombs into the Spanish
ranks. In this way, it is asserted, Ma
Geo forced his way through all opposi-
ton in his march through Santa Clara,
which he could not have otherwise in
vaded. Gomez used dynamite in his
assault at Pelayo and insurgents give
what appears to be exaggerated reports
of the slaughter that followed. In the
engagement Gomez took many prison

tails of the losses are suppressed.

German rendencx to suicide.

The preponderance of suicides of
Germanic extraction can be noticed,
locally, throughout the entire United
States. In a population composed
equally of Germans and Americans the
rate of suicide is eighty-fve per cent
German, and this rate does not vary
throughout the entire United States.
The idea that beer drinking is the
cause of this preponderance is one that
is popularity accepted throughout the
United States. Alcohol in any form
is, undoubtedly, factor in producing
dege neration, and suicide is, emphat-
ically, an evidence of degeneration;
hence, I am inclined to believe that, if
alcohol were the exciting cause,
whisky drinkers would more readily
succumb to suicidal desire than beer
drinkers. The cause of this preponder-
ance of suicide in Germanic peoples IS
not occasioned by any indulgence of
the appetite, but has its origin in a
psychical trait inherent in the race.
AS far back as history goes, both writ
ten and legendary, the Germanic races
have shown a strange Indifference to
death. DR. James Weir, Jr., in Popular
Science Monthly.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
It's excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,

A CHASTITY FIND.
Four Dead Bodies Discovered on a Boat on
Red River.

PARIS, Tex, Nov. 26.-The federal
officials received a telegram from Ar
thur City, I. T., stating that boat
was found adrift on Red river, near
that point, unnamed, and without a
pilot A man lay upon the deck with
his head almost severed from his body
and indications of a horrible fight.
Owing to the rapid current and to a
dog, which was famished to despera-
ton and showed signs of fight the
boat could not be boarded. Fuller de-
velopments reveal the fact that four
men were murdered. About three weeks
ago three men purchased the boat
and with boy moved ~ miles
below Arthur. For several days
the boat had been observed anchored
without a human being in sight. Sew
eral citizens concluded to investigate
and the corpses of the three men and
boy were all found lying in bed, un-
dressed. The victims had evidently
been dead several days. One of them
met death by his skull being crushed.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-Cotton seems
likely to become an important factor
in the question of the treasury gold re.

demand for cotton in Liverpool sent
the market up with bound yesterday,
and as a result the export movement

RECEIPTS FALLING OFF.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Nov. 26.-The
western cattle season is fast drawing
to close and the prices of fed cattle
are such as to cause feeders to keep
them back in the country, hoping for
better markets later on. They are en-
couraged in this policy by the abun-
dance and cheapness of corn. There is
also world of roughness throughout
the west, and it costs the farmer now
but little to keep his cattle going and
growing. The result is receipts are
falling off. Last week there was a
falling off in the number of cattle
killed of 4, S97 compared with the week
previous, resulting from lighter ar
