The ITOtiOnless Tiger

Now and then soldier has been
found kncchny on the battlefield as if
about to take aim at the enemy, but
stone dead. A bullet in the brain hud
converted him into q statue Of himself.
Captain Forsyth, in his Highland Of
Central India" tells Uf similar effect
produced by an explosive shell On n
tiger.
The captain, while in the howdah Of
his trained elephant hunting tiger,
saw the beast crouching under bush
on the bank Of q rnvine. He got a steady
shot and fired three ounce shell at the
tigers broad forehead.
TO his surprise. for the distance was
but 80 yards, there was no result. Not
a motion Of the tiger acknowledged the
shot.
He rode round a quarter of the circle,
but still the tiger remained motionless,
bat locking intently in the same direo-
tion. Growing more and more amazed,
the captain Iode nearer, with bis rifle
ON full cock, but the tiger did not move
Then he caused the elephant to kick the
beast. The tiger fell over. He was stone
dead. The shell had struck him full in
the center OF the forehead, burst in his
brain and killed him instantly.

Rubinsteiu was undoubtedly inaccu-

easily find that out. He not only en-
broidered even Beethoven, but he would
invent Bach. What he invented was
probably quite as good rs what he hap
pened TO forget and always extremely
interesting. Still, it was not note for

gloated over. Bulow was more acc9-

A NEW WAY 70 PURIFY WATER.
Chemicals Sold to Do Superior to Either
Boiling or Eiltering.

Boiling or Fiitering.
According to Dr. Dupont, a physician
Of Paris, writing in Les Annales d d'Hy-
giene PCbli1Ue, q safe and effective
method of purifying waio. b. chemica!
acton has been discovered. DR.. DCI mt
notes that hitherto the methods oi puri-
flying drinking water have been hy fl
, tration and by the action OF heat. Fill
tratiun is the eldest and least effective
method. Even iilintion Though porous
porcelain, the nnst effective substance
known, cannot always be trusted, eSpe-
cially after the apparatus has been long
in use. DR.. Dupont docs not assert that
boiling fails to destroy noxious germs,
but he says tina. It often leaves in the
water organic matter that might be
dangerous to health, and that boiling
makes water>less diaestibic by robbing
it of its gases. He instances a case in
which water from the Seine was found
after boiling to contain more microbes
, than before.
N Girar, director of the municipal
laboratory Of Paris, and DR.. Bordas, q
pupil OF Professor Brouardel, have re-
csntly presented to the Academy OF
Sciences, through the chemist Friedel,
q communication on the publication Of
water by chemical action. The chemic-
ais used are per1nanganate Of lime and
biroxide of manganese. The permanga-
nste of lime, coming In contact with Or
ganic matter and micro Organisms. de-
stroys them and decomposes itself into
oxygen, oxide of manganese and lime.
Then, to carry off the surplus OF per-
mangonate and complete the pnrifica-
tion, the water is poured OveI b.noNide
OF manganese. Oxygen in tho nascent
state is thus freed, and it burns up any
remaining germs. There remain then in
the apparatus inferior oxides Of nianSa-
pcse, wlech hasten to reoxidize them
seivesNand furnish again certain quau-
tity Of binoxide of manganese. Tie wa
ter, as thus finally purified, contains a
little liIne in the form Of q bicarbOnate
J and traces Of oxygenated water.
A very small quantity of permanga-
nate of lime is used ia this process.
Not more than 1.3 grains troy to
about quart of water taken from the
Seine at point near Paris resulted in
the production on perfectly pure water
as wholesome as spring water. DR.. Du-
pont says that if the process can be made
successful on q large scale the question
of purifying water Is settled. Water
containing 100, 900 colonies of microbes
per cubit centimeter can thus be puri-
fed, and ice placed IN water with per-

THE BOND SYNDICATE.
Secretary Carlisle's Annual Report Ex-

pected to Contain Facts Regarding It.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept l2.-One of
the features of Secretary Carlisle's re-
port to congress will probably be full
statement of the operations of the
bond syndicate. It is understood that
it will contain several interesting facts
in connection with the transaction
which are as yet'only known to the
parties Immediately concerned in the
negotion Of the loan. The most i'm
portant problem the secretary will
have to deal with is that which
looks to the rc.ief of the treas
ury, involving radical change
in the financial system. The desired
relief can only be obtained by the aid
of congress, and the secretary realizes
that it is going to be very difficult
task to suggest a remedy which will
meet the approval of the Republican
house, with Reed, a candidate for the
presidency, in the speakers chair 1t
probably will be the policy of the Re-
publicans to confuse, rather than un-
tangle, the financial complications
during the next congress, for they are
counting upon making considerable
political capital out of the money ques-
tion in the presidential contest.

GRAND JUNCTION, Col, Sept. -
just after the engineer of passenger
train No. 1, which left this city last
night on the Rio Grande Western road,
reached Crevasse, about twenty three
miles west of here, he found that the
engine had been run on a siding and
was pulling only the mail and bag
gage car, the rear portion of the train
having been cut off at the station.
Then two robbere, each of medium
size and masked, appeared, but finding
that they had left the express car
with the train, mounted horses that
were in waiting and skipped for the
mountains.
The first news of the hold-up was a
dispatch from Superintendent A. f.
Mckee of the Rio Grande Western
railroad to Sheriff Innes: .sCall on
agent of Rio Grande Western at your
city if you need ear to take you and
your deputies to Crevasse or other
points. 2
Sheriff Innes and posse started at
once on special train for the scene OF
the attempted robbery. So far as
known the robbers secured nothing.
