The New York physician who has
been making toads live without
brains has been matched and beaten
by German Psychologist, according
to cable. The German has been
experimenting at splicing and gratis
ing embryonic toads and frogs.
Larve of different species, cut in
two, were joined at the bellies with
such success that green frog nav>
ing a black toad with a red spotted
belly on its underside was produced.
Tadpoles were sliced and parts of
other embryonic amphibians en-
grated on the bodies in different
ways, and in several instances the
monstrosities lived for days. In
one instance, two hinder parts,
neither of which had heart, united
in twenty-four hours and lived for g
week. A taGpole was given four
legs, each from different species,
and it grew into a frog with its mis-
matched legs.

THE destruction of human life in
Butte, Montana, while the fremen
were at work trying to extinguish a
burning building, is one of the most
appalling catastrophes that has hap
pened in the history OF the country.
1t was on Tuesday of last week. A
small fire had broken out in stor-
age shed near the tracks OF the
Montana Central Railroad. Three
car loads of giant powder exploded,
killing all the fremen except five
or six, killing a number of citizens,
the total number killed being about
so and the wounded sixty nine.
Human beings we're blown into
fragments. Arms, legs, and heads
were scattered everywhere, while a
hole ten feet in the ground was
blown out, the building wrecked to
its foundation, and other buildings
in the town badly damaged.

Incandescent Lamp Cleaner.

Many people blame tho central sta
ton for the poor light from their incan-
descent lamps, when the fault is really
their own. They allow their lamps to be
dirty 1t has been shown that one days
accumulation of dust on incanlescent
bulbs cuts off per cent of tho light, so
the result of few days neglect can
easily be guessed. AS means of renov-
ing to Il great extent tho frequent COM
plants of poorness Of light a central
station recommends tho use of lamp
cleaner which greatly facilitates the
process of busting the bulbs. To 8 foot
handle is attached Il strong wire frame
work, which carries Il number of felt
mittens. BY forcing the frame over each
lamp and giving tho handle few turns
the dust on the glass is removed, leav-
ing the bulb rs clean as when it left the
factory Each cleaner is provided with
a set of rubber friction pads that WILL
when suitably placed on tho mittens,
remove and replace burned out lamps
The handle can be extended so rs to
reach lamps ut any distance. This de-
vice makes the cleaning of lamps very
quick and easy task.-St. Louis Globe

Regret That Came Too Late.

The London Musical Herald tells a
queer story about Jack Wilson's tomb
in the Little Cloisters Mt Westminster
abbey. Wilson was Shakespeare tenor
He was probably the first to sing "Sigh
No More, Ladies'" and he died at the
age of rs, III 1913. The inscription OH
his tomb at tho abbey was much oblit-
Grated, and under the direction of an
antiquary a man was employed to recut
the letters. The antiquary stood looking
over him, so that he should make no
mistake, and to make the time go pleas
antly he eXpatiatcd ut great length to
tho workman upon tho grandeur and
merits of the deceased. The man even
tually stopped his work, and looking up
at the antiquary said, Il wish, sir, we
had known that he was such swell be-
fore we run that there drain pipe
through him"

a MODERN NAVAL BATTLE.

"Pce'aclc 10 Grand One and tho tx
pericnco Thrilling.
laynan has 10 conception of tho
awful nature of battle in modern naval
vessels. Even tho cruisers have steel
SIDES, and the air of tho inclosed spaces
Is very confined. Tho din made by tho
impact OF II heavy projectile against
'hese metal sides is awful beyond de-
scrlptlon. Wore cotton in my ears, but
III spite OF that, am still deaf from that
cause The engineers i'll the Chen Yuen
stuck to their work even when the tenn
peraturc OF the engine room was above
200 degrees L. Tho skin of their hands
and arms was actually roasted off, and
every man was blinded for life, the sight
being actually scared ont.
Late Ill the action, after my hair had
been burned off and my eyes SO impaired
by injected blood that could only see
out of one Of them, and then only by
hitting the lid with my fingers, I was
deslrous OF seeing how tho enemy was
delivering his fire. AS CROPPED my way
around tho protected deck q hundred
pound shell pierced the armor about IS
inches in front of my hand In second
my hand touching the steel was SO
burned that part of tho skin was left
upon the armor. That shows how in
tense is the heat engcndercd by the i'm
pact Of shot and how rapidly the steel
conducts that heat.
One she'll struck an open gun shield
of the Chen Yucn early in the action,
and glancing thence passed through the
open port. Seven gunnerS were killed
and I,,+ H.
the fight the maxim gun in our foretop
was silenced Tho holes pierced by n
shell could he seen from tho deck Aft
er tho fight VIC found tho officer and men
on duty thcro all dead and frightfully
mangled. That ono shell had wrought
the havoc.
The detonations of tho heavy cannon
and tho impact of hostile projectiles
produce conclusions that actually rend
the clothing off. The Chinese soldiers
deserve all credit for their courage and
obedience i'll that action. No duty was
too difficult or dangerous When tho
Chen Yuen's forccastle was ablaze from
Jap shells, ordered several officers to
cross the she'll swept place to fight the
fire. They shirked that duty, but when
called upon the men to volunteer to
follow me they did it promptly, and tho
ship was saved. 1t was while ON this
duty that shell passing between my
legs threw me aloft and let mo down
upon the deck with such violence that 1
became unconscious and was out of the
fight. All of the officers, however, were
not towards. On my ship were several
who had been educated i'll this country,
and they were rs brave and devoted as
men could be. Others, however, were in
the safest place they could find amid
ships.-Captain McGiffin i'll Mail and
