The wind was so strong that it blew down stone fences in the outlying portion of the city. It is estimated that the dam age to property in this city amounts to $20000. The blowing down of the car shops means idlcness to several hundred men who were employed in them. The dome on the big Nortls Baptist church Was looscned and the spar house owned by David Baird was wrecked. A TOW If unruofed houses on Deagh street was badly damaged. and some unfinished houses on East Pine street were also destroyed.

 ROOFS BLOWN AWAY.
 Philadelphia, Dee. 21.-A number of houses were unroofed in different parts of the city by the storm last night.

M. Stambulotf, the ex premier of Bull
garia, and often spoken of as the Bis
ma rex Of that country because of his die
tatorlal manners and determination to Sc
cure Bulgarian Independence at any cost,
is the victim of politics, apparently. He
no doubt had enemies but 1t is not prob
able that they would have assaulted him
In the open manner they did, had they
not known that Russia would like to see
him removed and that the king, whom
no placed upon the throne, had ceased to
listen to his oounsels There are circum-
stances which give color to the grave
charge made by his wife that be had been
stabbed by police emissarics. On the
night Of March 81, 1891, an attempt was
made to kill Stambuloff, but which re-
suited In the killing of his minister of
finance, NJ. Beltcheff.

Just Thinking,

She started across the street at Fourth
and Race but when just half way over
came to dead halt between the two car
tracks. Evidently she did not see the two
,ars bearing down upon her from opposite
directions nor hear the shouts directed at
Ter from bystanders and passengers.
The mOtormen kicked their gongs vigor-
)usly and put on brakes. There was a
general scramble in the dazed woman $
Erection by half dozen would be rescu-
rs, and still she did not move. The cars
we're of the summer sort and the foot
boards would surely catch her and grind
her to pieces If she was not snatched away
from the danger. Years seemed to pass In
he moments that followed, and just as
very one, including the policeman and
conductors, had turned to shut out from
heir view the terrible accident that must
follow the cars came TO a standstili within
two feet of each other. Then she came to
herself, and climbing into one of the cars
she sided across it and out again on the
other side, while the crowd breathed u sigh
IF relief.
"That was narrow escape, ma am,"
aid the conductor nearest her. What was
he matterY Just got frightened. l sup

"No," she answered calmly; II couldn't

Cuban politics is confined to this
country while Cuban fighting occurs on
the island, at a safe distance from those
who have only politics at heart Beyond
doubt, however, there are not a few of the
Cubans living in this country who are very
active In securing material support for the
insurgents and are doing much in the
way OF money and arms to help their
countrymen in the field Last week 1t was
said that members of the Cuban Libre
Club had been making tests with balloons
for the purpose Of dropping dynamite car
tridges inside breastworks and of sky
rockets for hurting dynamite against
ships, and were much pleased with the
results. They claimed that parties mile
away could control balloon so as to drop
cartridge within ten feet of a desired
spot and that they had given an order for
the manufacture of a complete equipment
for this kind Of warfare 1t is not prob
able, however, that greater success will
attend such quickly Matched schemes than
was obtained with the rheumatic dyna-
mite gun that was to revolutiunize sea
fighting in the Brazilian revolution, but
didu't.

PLANT MiMlCRY.
Some of the Strange Tricks Played by
Seeds For Propagation.

Some of the Strange Tricks Played by
Seeds For Propagation.
DR.. Lundstrom has recently described
some cases of alleged plant mimicry. The
cultivated plant known as calendula may
in different conditions produce at least
three different kinds of fruit. Some have
sails and are suited for transportation by
the wind, while others have hooks and
catch hold of passing animals, but the
third kind exhibits moro desperate
dodge, for II becomes like caterpillar!
Not that the fruit knows anything about
it, but If it be sufficiently like "a caterpi-
lar bird may cat 1t by mistake, the in
digestible seeds will be subsequently sown
and so the trick succeeds
The next case is more marvellous. There
is more graceful wild plant, with beauti-
full, delicate flowers, known to many as
the COW wheat. Ants are fond of visiting
the COW wheat to feast on sweet banquet
spread out upon the leaves. DR. Lund-
strom has observed one of these ants and
was surprised to see it making off with
one OF the seeds from an open fruit The
ant took the seed homo with it, On ex-
ploring some ant nests the explorer saw
that this was not the first COW wheat seed
which had been similarly treated. Many
seeds were found in the ant nurseries.
The ants did not eat them or destroy
them. In fact, when the nest was dis
turbed the ants saved the seeds along with
their brood, for in size, form, color and
weight, even in minute particulars, the
seeds in question resemble ant cocoons.
Once placed among the cocoons 1t requires
better eye than an ant has to distinguish
the tares from the wheat. In the excite
ment of fitting, when the nest is disturb
ed, the mistake is repeated, and the seeds
are also saved. The trick is found ont
some day, for the seeds, like the cocoons
awake out of sleep The awakening dis
plays the fraud. The seeds are thus sup
posed to be scattered. They terminate and
seem to thrive in the ant nests.-Pitts-
