AIR DOES NOT KILL.
The Wind Preceding Shot Found to Be
 Harmless.

Harmless.
 The old belief that projectiles some times kill men in battle without hitting them must be abandoned in view of re- cent scientific experiments. It was for merly supposed that the air compressed and driven before the projectile, and technically called ''the wind of the shot," was capable of striking fatal blow, and even army surgeons have as sented to this theory.
 But, says Youths Companion, ex- periments have shown that the air driven by projectile, while capable of being instantaneously photographed in the form of a wave, does not possess sufficient energy to produce any de- structive effect.
 Another theory which recent investi- gations have overturned is that the ex- plosive effect sometimes exhibited by bullets is due to compressed air driven into the wound.
 Experience shows that the appear ance of explosion arises from the na- ture of the substance penetrated by the bullet. If this substance is plastic or watery, the impulse of the projectile is distributed laterally in all directions among it's particles, and they are driven asunder.
 Such an effect has been noticed in battle when bullets have entered the brain, and accusations of using explo- sive projectiles, contrary to the comity of nations. have been based upon them. By firing bullets into wet dough, every indication of an explosion has been pro- duced, although the same bullets, fired with identical velocity, into solid sub stances like bone, made only. round, c}ean-cut holes.

THE CITY SUSTAINED.
Judge Baker Denies a Writ of Ha- beas Corpus in the Turney Case.

Judge Baker Denies Writ of Ha-
 beas Corpus in the Turney Case.
 Judge Baker yesterday denied the writ of habeas corpus in the case of O.. A. Turney, convicted in the recorders court of carrying concealed weapons. Arguments in the case were heard the day before, but involved com mplicatons for which it was difficult to find solu- tion by precedents. The applicants denied on two grounds that the city had any authority under it's charter to pass an ordinance in relation to carry ing concealed weapons. The city's law making power WAS limited to list of matters specially designated in the charter. Carrying concealed weapons is not one of them. The other ground was that the ordinance in it's terms diff fered from the statute prohibiting car rying concealed weapons, in the matter of the penalty.
 As to the first contention Judge Ba- ker decides that the city is given gen. eral authority to enact police regula- tons. As to the second, the court holds that the enactment of an ordin- ance covering the same ground as that covered by statute IS not necessarily 8 conflict between ordinance and statute and Tn this case certainly is not. A stay of execution for five days was granted in the payment of fine of $50 imposed by the city recorder.

WHERE DIALECT RUNS WILD.
Specimen of the Argot in Use Among Aus
 tralian Sheep Shearers.

Specimen of the Argot in Use Among Aus
 tralian Sheep shearers.
 If the specimen of Australian dialect which Gilbert Parker gives in the Idler is fair sample of what we may expect when dialect writers begin to work up that country, we have not yet seen the worst. Here is little story which reads like missing word puzzle or cipher telegram: ''Tell ye low it was. I toddles off to the shed, pulls down me tongs, 'auls out bloomin papillion, and was goin' down the whippin' side, both blades 'eavily load ed, wen the boss drops and shot me dead. l takes 'op skip an jump back to the ut, put two folds in the old shirallee, sings the 'og 'ide on the tall crocodile, goes up the river like frog, sits down along sleepy Jims muster and strips hundred and forty by four o'clock next" And here is the inter- enough to furnish us:
 This is how it happened: I walked off to the shearing shed, took down my shears, hauled out a sheep, and I was clipping down the right-hand side with all my might, when the manager came and discharged me. I went back to the hut, folded up my blanket, put. the sad dle on my horse, galloped up the river, stopped at Sleepy Jim's sheep pen and shore a hundred and forty by four o'clock next day." <

TROLLEY BLOT REMOVED
Last Of the Offending Poles Will Be
Down by Night.
More Men Put On To-day and the
Work Is Being Pushed With
All Dispatch.

Before nightfall to-day the last trolley
pole will have disappeared from New York
avenue, and no evidences of their former
existence will remain, except when the
street has been disturbed in the process of
removal.
During last night the remaining wires had
been taken from the poles to Florida avenue
and 1t is now being coiled for storage.
Work was this morning prosecuted vita

men had been somewhat increased, and
nineteen men We're put to preparing the
poles ready for removal
By this means IL o'Gock found twenty
the poles laid bare to the bottom OF their
cement castings, and these, with those left
standing to anchor the wires used beyond

eighteen poles lay next to the curbing
waiting to be removed TO the power house.
The cross arms OF all had been removed
and two Of them had been broken.
The earth had been filled in where
these poles formerly stood, and the cobble-

ST. JOSEPH'S ASYLUM.


Sister Superior Submits Its Report
and Estimates.
Through Col. John Tracy. superintendent
of charities, the Sister Superior uf St.
Joseph's Male Orphan Asylum. has sub
mitted TO the Commissioners the annual
report of that institution for the past fiscal
year.
From il the following extracts are taken:
The inmates of the asylum are orphan
boys of the city and District, and are
received irrespective Of creed. The only
condition required is that the child be
really a subject of charity-an orphan,
destitute, without suitable home ur pro-
tector. The average number of orphans in
mates during the year was 109; the highest
number was 120, and the lowest on any day
was SO boys.
years of age the little boys are kept at the
asylum, where they are at all times under
the immediate care of the sisters.
''On July II, 1892, Congress, recog-
nizing the merits of the institution and the
uncertainty of support which had la rely
altogether upon charity, granted the asylum
a small appropriation Of $1,000. This
was reduced in 1898 to $1,lS1, and since
then increased to 81 500.
THAT such a sum is inadequate TO main
tain the asylum is evident from the state
mento OF expenditures furnished"
The managers request that Congress shall
be asked to appropriate So 900 for the bene-
fit of the Institution next year.

GUARDING lYALLBR'S CASE
State Department Will Not Admit
an Ezpurgatsd Deposition.
1t Is Pursuing MS Investigation and
Reports From France Are
Given No sCpnsideration.


1t is quite evident that the State Depart
ment has taken the precaution to. forufy
itself against any attempt on the par tof
the French government to submit an ex-
purgated edition of the record of the court
martial that convicted Waller, or one that
does notfully and fairly set forth thefacts.
Walters disposition is now in the hands OF
Secretary 0lney,, and while its contents
are withheld, 1t is known that it sustains
the contention of this government and
the representations made by the friends
Of the ex-consul.
The statements emanatIng from French
newspapers to the effect that Wailer's
case is hopeless and that this Government
has been SO Informed by the French foreign
office are regarded with Indifference here.
No such notice has been received, and 1t
is not believed at the Department that the
French government would make such a
statement pending the delivery of the rec
ord in the case, which cannot under the
most favorable conditions reach Paris for
several days.
