The large crowd of Arkansas people
at Montgomery Park this afternoon
were not disappointed in the work of
the two Little Rock companies. The
Mccarthy Light Guards were at d
slight disadvantage on being the first
company to drill in the class A, though
they Gld very creditable work. The
feature of the afternoon was the drill
OF the Morton cadets, of Washington,
in class d. The youngsters had al
ready appeared in class c, and from
the time they marched upon the field,
the improvement in their work was no
ticeable They seemed TO be perfectly
al ease, having lost all OF the nervous
ness they showed on Monday The
marked weakness in the manual shown
on thar day was not apparent today
and notwithstanding the fact that the
class J. drill was more difficult, the
boys distinguished themselves and

Stories About Brave Boys.

In ''the times that try mems souls"
some endure the strain, while others
break in pieces. The annals of the sea
abound in illustrations of the different
effects produced upon men by sudden
and appalling: dangers. An English
steamer, while passing down the tor
tuous channel of the Red sea, ground
ed on coral reef, and apparently was
fixed there. Her captain lost all self
control, and, when the chief engineer
asked for orders, could say nothing
but:
''The ship is lost! I give her upr'
"Beg pardon, SIR" replied the es-
gineer, who had not lost his head; "but
did hear you say you gave up COM
mand of the shipY

Anybody may. She's lost! ~

1t Didn't Work.

It isn't always safe for small boy
to take his fathers jokes and games
too seriously. This was shown very
plainly at one time by the experience
of an Englishman and his son upon
railway journey which they took to-
gether. While the little fellow was
gazing out of the open window his
father slipped the hat off the boys
head. in such way as to make his son
believe that it had fallen out of the
window. The boy was very much up
set by his supposed loss, when the
father consoled him by saying that ha
would whistle it back" A little
later he whistled and the hat reap
peared. Not long after the little fell
low seized upon his fathers hat, and
finging it out of the window, shouted,
Now, papa, whistle your hat back
again. ."-Harper's Round Table.

Scientific Notes.

For fourteen years there has been
an average of but twenty hours Of
sunshine in London in December.
The National Academy of Sciences
has awarded the Barnard gold medal
to Lord Rayleigh for his discovery of
argon in the atmosphere.
There is a butterfly of India, which,
if pursued by bird, simply alights on
bush or tree and become invisible
by minicking the leaves.
Humboldt gave it as his opinion that
the earth contained $4,000 species of
plants, $1,000 species of animals, A.
600 species of insects, 1000 species of
birds and 1000 species of reptiles.
Lord Raleigh has made a lash-light
triumph. He photographed the break
ing up of a soap bubble, a process
which occupied between the two-hun-
dreth and three-hundredth part of a
second.
The great Edison incandescent lamp
works are no longer turning out lamps
with bamboo filaments. Bamboo has
given way to paper as the basis of the
delicate black filament that glows
golden when the current passes
through it.
A twenty-two-ton Armstrong rifle in
the British navy throws a solid shot
twelve miles, much further than it's
report can be heard. At it's highest
point for this extreme range the shot
would be over three miles above the
earth's surface.
M. Berthelot of Paris finds in manip-
ulating the newly discovered compo-
nent Of air, argon, that it developed at
an ordinary pressure a magnificent
ftuorescent substance of greenish yel-
low color, and characterized by spec
trum similar to that Of aurora borealis.
From this he deduced that the north
ern lights were caused by the fluores-
cent matter derived from argon ard
generated through the influence Of
electrical emanations developed in the
atmosphere.

A Dainty for Elephants.

A number of years ago. in a book
which was called Leaves from thu
Life of a Special Correspondent, Mr.
O'Shea, the author Of the book, gave
the following description of an adven,
ture he had with a herd of elephants.
Said he: "a young friend asked me
once to show him some elephants,
and I took him along with me, having
first borrowed an apron and filed it
with oranges. This he was to carry
while accompanying me in the stable,
but the moment we reached the door
the herd set up such a trumpeting
they had scented the fruit-that he
dropped the apron and it's contents,
and scuttled off like a scared rabbit
There were eight elephants, and when
I picked up the oranges 1 found I had
twenty 1 walked deliberately
along the line, giving one to each.
When I got to the extremity of the
narrow stable I tu1 ned, and was about
to begin the distribution again, when
1 suddenly reflected that if elephant
No. 7 in the row saw me give two
oranges in succession to No. 8 he
might imagine he was being cheated,
and give me a smack with his trunk
that is where the elephant falls short
of the human being-so l went to the
door and began at the beginning as
before. Thrice I went along the line,
and then I was in a fix. 1 had one
orange left, and had to get back to
the door. Every elephant in the herd
had his greedy gaze focused Oh that
orange. It was as much as my life
was worth to give it to any Of them.
What was to do? I held it up con-
spicuously. coolly peeled it, and ate it
myself. It was most amusing to no.
tice the way those elephants nudged
each other and shook their ponderous
sides. They thoroughly entered into
the humor of the thing.-Harper'

The MicrObe In n New Role.

Microbes as a class have been so
roundly abused that the discovery Of
the fact that we cannot altogether get
along without them induces a certain
sense of satisfaction. A Russian pro-
fessor has been taking great trouble to
determine the value of germs in as
sisting the body to perform it's natural
functions. He fed animals on food
that had been carefully sterilized, and
compelled them tc bres the germless
air. The experiments proved that the
presence of microbes is necessary to
digestion. The animals soon showed
the effect of the deprivation. First,
they began to droop, then lost their
appetite, ond then weaker ed aud died.
1t was found that the food simply
would not assimilate when the mi
crobes were absent. This series of ex-
periments has beer extended to the
vegetable world. 1t is now proved
that certain plants can only assimilate
the nitrogen which is necessary to
their growth through the action Of
the microbes that live at their roots.

Cutting and Singeing Hair.

The latest novelty in the BARRIERS
shop is the ''singe-cutting comb" This
apparatus, which cuts the hair and
singes it at the same time, consists OF
comb, over the teeth of which is
stretched a platinum wire, which is
raised to a white heat by the passage
of current. The supply Of current is
regulated by push button at one end
Of the comb. AS the button is pressed,
the comb is passed through the hair,
which is instantly severed, the cut
ends being sealed by the heat. It is
we'll known that singeing is extensive
~ practiced with the idea of saving
the oily substance in the hair tube, on
which the life, yigor and beauty Of the
hair depend. When cut with shears
this oil is supposed to escape until ma
ture closes the capillary tube. 1t is
claimed that the (auterizing Of the
hair on contact with the Lot wire
closes the ends. and also reduces the
liability to catch cold in the head after
the hair is cut There is no possibility
of either burn or a shock being COM
municated to the scalp. The hair is cut
evenly, as the platinum cutter is al
ways in a straight line, and in one po-
sition. An advantage is found in the
fact that since the hot wire does not
give a live fame, it is impossible to
set the hair on fire, which often hap
pens when using the torch, gas fame
or taper under the old method. The
work is done with great rapidity, and
to use the apparatus all that is neces-
sary is to remove an incandescent
lamp from the socket, and put the
| plug of the "singe-cutting comb" in
its place. The apparatus is quite sim
pie, and cannot well get out of order.
+ When the platinum cutter is worn out
another can be substituted in three
seconds, and without the aid Of tools
of any kind.

Toys of Royalty.


The late Gar of Russia was child
ishly fond Of toys, giving the prefer
ence to models Of ironelads. He had a
unique collection of these miniature
vessels of destruction, among them
one Of solid silver, and another so
complete in every detail that it cost a
thousand pounds. His last treasure
was the model of an Atlantic liner,
which was only a yard long, yet an
an absolute copy of the original.
The Queens favorite toy is a work.
ing model of the heav ens. showing the
whole Of the solac system, the celes-
tial poles, and the sun. A small model
of the moon revolveS round the earth,
while all the planets with their sateL.
lites, are fully represented. This
model is the best possible aid to the
study of astronomy, therefore it can
scarcely be classed as plaything.
Another emperor, William Of Ger
many, delights in the possession of
the working model Of railway, with
engine, carriages, rails, points, signals
and stations. This he works with the.
greatest glee. He alsoStakes a vivid
interest in the collection of toy SOL
diers-said to be the finest in the,
world-belonging to his children,
which is so large that the whole floor
of vast hall in the palace at Berlin
can be covered with it. Battles are
| fought Oh a European scale, his maj.
| estv directing operations.
The new Czar Nicholas of Russia
and the Duke of York are both ardent
stamp collectors, the duke being presi-
| dent of the philatelic society. The
stern laws OF the English postal au-
thorities have been relaxed in his
favor as to the printing of obsolete
issues, Mr.. Gladstone having COM
manded the express printing fer him
at Somerset house of several very rare
specimens.
