The fur OF the weasel family Is In
great demand by the dealers because
OF its beauty and adaptability in
many classes OF wearing apparel.
What Is known as ermine is pro.
duced by little animal called the
stoat In England. In winter he
changes his reddish brown skin to u
white ono. Savage and bloodthirsty
Is this little creature, preying upon
everything that he can overpower.
His chief food consists Of partridges
and rabbits, but macy other small
animals are disposed OF in the same
way. The pine marten, u member
OF the weasel tribe, has brown SIX in
and yellow throat. Some mart ms
have a blush brown coat with wi 1t
throat. They are larger than tho
stoat and more destructive. The
other Is the king Of weasels. He can
whip anything OF his weight in the
world. He Is hunted with hounds In
England, and can give six or seve,,
dogs all they can do to kill him.
Like the mink, he Is very fond OF fist,
and water fowl.
All OF tho weasel family are very
fierce and strong for their size. The
skunk, with his black and white
coat; the badger with his beautiful
silver gray fur and black dashes, and
the sable are all OF tho same species
and valuable fur bearing animals.

To Measure Time.

What Is termed a photochronograpi,
has been devised by u French scientist
for measuring minute intervals OF
time, especially for experimental
work in physics In the laboratory.
The Instrument comprises q metallic
disk turning freely on an axis passing
through its center. while the free end
OF u spring carries needle point
which bears against the disk. This
spring Ii timed to give 500 vibrations
per second. Such rate Is deter
mined by so turning the spring that
1t vibrates between known vibrations
OF 1913 and 522 vibrations per second.
Any want OF extreme accuracy in the
determination OF the intermediate
point Ia not OF great Importance, az
1t can be shown that the difference
only affects the fifth place OF deoE Aali
ola single second. OF course, any
vibration In speed OF the disk does
not influence the number of vibra'
tions Of the spring. BY means OF q
magnesium light traces OF the path
Of the spring are left upon a sensitive
plate mounted on the disk.

A remarkable incident Is related
by a distinguished naturalist. His
study window commanded a view OF
the courtyard, which was sheltered
by high walls and remote from noise
or disturbance OF any kind. One day
he saw q large robin engaged in drag
ging the apparently dead body OF an
other robin round ind round In cir
Gle on the pavement.
1t looked as though the live robin
had fought duel with the other,
and, having come OIL victorious, was
indulging in the cruel triumph OF
pulling the liieless body Of its van.
quishod rival over tho stones. Sud.
denly, however, the live robin
stopped and threw itself upon Its
back as though stark dead. Its wings
were half extended and rigid and Its
legs upturned to the sky.
Never to all seeming, had there
been robin more dead. Meanwhile
the other robin went through an ex.
actly converse transformation. II
had only been ''shamming dead
and now woke up In full and vigorous
life. Selling on It's feathered play

all round the same circle and re-
peated the process several times over

Boone the Hunter.

Boone was leader among the sct-
tiers. both In pence and In war. At
one time he represented them In the
House OF Burgesses, In Virginia; at
another time he was a member Of the
first little kentucky parliament
itself; and he became Colonel Of
the frontier militia. lilo titled the
land, and he chopped tho trees him.

stockades with his own hands, WELD
ing the long handled. light headed
frontier AK as skillfully rs other
irontiersmen did.
His main business was that OF
surveyor. for his knowledge OF tho
country and his ability to travel
through 1t In spite OF the danger
OF Indians created much demand for
his services among people who
wished to lay OF tracts OF wild land
for their own future use. But what.
ever he did. and wherever he went,
no had to DO sieeplessly on the watcls
for his Indian foes. When he ana his
fellows titled the stump dotted fields
OF corn, one or more OF the party were
always on guard, with rifle at the
ready, for fear OF lurking savages.
When he won't to the House OF Bur.
gesses he carried his long rife, and
traversed roads not mile OF which

attacks.
The settlements In the early years
depended exclusively upon game for
their meat, and Boone was the
mightiest Of oil the hunters, 80 that
upon him devolved tho task OF keep

many buffaloes, and picked the buf-
falo beef for use in winter. He killed
great numbers OF black bears and
mado bacon OF them, precisely as II
thoy had been hogs. The common
game was deer and elk. At that time
no Kentucky hunter would waste q
shot on anything SO small as n prairie

One ies Crack Thirty Miles Lens.

A curious phenomenon Is reported
on Lake Winnebago. In the middle
OF tho winter the leo cracks open,
the assure extending lensthwise OF
the lake and almost exactly midway
between the east and the west shores.
This opening averages from three to
six feet in width and Is thirty miles
long. II occurs every winter regu-
larly, and those who are In the habit
OF crossing the lake on the ice make
arrangements to construct q tenn.
porary bridge across the chasm.
Teams OF the Cook IL Brown Lime
Company. hauling brick from the
Calumet shore, find that the crack Is
equally distant from both sides, and
when u team starts from both
shores ut tho same time the teams
are sure to meet ut the crack in the
middle OF the lake. The only eX'
PLANTATION OF the matter Is tn ~ the

ed to the mails. These have been
furnished the postofiices throughout
the country, with instructions that
they be posted In conspicuous places
in the postofIices and the attention
Of the patrons be called to them.
During the last fiscal year nearly
three hundred thousand such notices

THE production OF silk in Syria is
said to have considerably increased
In recent years. In 1903 about nine
hundred pounds weight Of silk worms
eggs were used in tho principal towns
and villages. Tho eggs us in Syria
are Of Corscan origin and the greater
part come from Franco and q much
smaller quantity from Italy. The
Japanese varieties have entirely
ceased to be imported. All the eggs
imported are subjected to q most
rigorous examination, and in some
cases are examined by microscopical
instruments. The eggs arrive In
boxes Of about twenty-five grammes
weight, and are sold ut prices vary.
Ing from 3 to @ francs, according to
tho quantity and quality. The pay.
ments IRE made In cocoons. and
varies In different parts OF the coun.
try from one.seventh to one.twelfth
OF the silk harvest. Although at.
tempts have frequently been made ut
tho production Of native eggs, thoy
have always been unsuccessful,
chiefly owing to native carslessness.
The silk worms Of the present day
work principally for the domestic
production, and native manufact-
urers have much to contend with
from foreign competition, which Is
making itself severely felt. Markets
that were formerly controlled by tho
Syrlans IRE now disputed by Euro.
penn manufacturers. who with their
skilled workmen and improved ma.
chinery find competition with the
older methods comparatively easy.
The greatest speciality in the native
silk stuifs, and In which Syria un-
doubtedly excels, Is that In which
cotton forms the work, and In which
the greater or lesser quantity Of silk
In the weft determines the quality.
The principal silk manufactures IRE
tho native headd es ,es and cloaks
shawls, tobacco pouches, slippers,
pillow cases and stuffs for dress goods
and upholstery.

Waste Energies.

A Philadelphia engineer has figured
out that one inch Of rain falling upon
an area Of one square mile 10 eluiva-
lent to nearly IS, 100000 gallons,
Weighing las, 200, 900 pounds, or r..
600 tons. Assuming this water to
have fallen from clouds about half o
mile, or, say, 5000 feet, above the
earth, We have for the energy repre-.
sented by IL about 22, 600 horsepower.
With pumping machinery working ut
the low rate OF consumption Of two
pounds Of coal per horse power per
hour, it would take 200 gross tons OF
coal to raise the water represented by
one inch Of rain on square mile to
the assumed height Of 5000 feet. As
q matter Of fact, rain often falls from
clouds which are ut much greater
height than 5000 feet above the
ground, SO that the figures just given
are quite comparative ones. With
oil the talk that there has been about
utilizing waste energies 1t seems just
q little peculiar that no promising
scheme has yet been evolved to turn
to good account the prodigious power
waste which thus far has been shown
to 60 on with every rainfall Of any
account. And yet, while writing. q
project comes to mind which was i'd.
vanccd about ten years ago, appar-
emily in good faith. by some enter
prising genius In the West Indies, to
accomplish exactly this saving.
What he proposed to do was to con-
duct tho water from each roof during
heavy tropical rains into main pipe
supplying q small turbine coupled to
dynamo. The electricity so do.
veloped by passing showers was to DO
stored in accumulators, and these, as
they became charged in variable
times, depending, OF course, on the
rainfall, were to be collected and
stored at central depots from which
the power was ,afterward to be dis
tributed. Unfortunately, however,
this enticing scheme did not materi.
alize. SO that the field Is still open

1t is singular you take a load of

for seed, let alone bread. People
wanting seed had best get it now or
pay two prices for it.

WEDNESDAY,

Threatening weather kept many
away from the camp grounds last
night and many went away after they
got there on account Of the approach
ing storm. All might have stayed
with profit for all the storm that
came. The tent was about half full.
The theme for discussion, "Why
Christ Died Upon the Cross" was
ably handled by Evangelist Boles.
He showed that no great cause or
kingdom has ever been established
on earth without the shedding Of
blood. The principle Of sacrifice was
essential In order to attract and fas-
ten the attention Of the people. The
query 'If a man die shall he live
again." had come down the ages since
the beginning, and was still unanswer-
