this does not confess any wrong doing

THE GREAT GUN DUEL.
Russian Sailors Acknowledge Theil
Defeat by Saluting.

Russian Sailors Acknowledge Theil
Defeat by SalutinG.
While the flag of truce was flying a Rus
sian officer of artillery went up to ask
Sir Richard Airey if Gen. Dacres, COM
manding the English artillery was on the
ground, says the author OF THE Crimean
War from First TO Last" On Sir Richard
answering in the negative, the officer
said: Your 6s-pounder gun that your
people call Jenny is q beautiful gun, but
we think We have one as good In that EN-.
brasure," pointing up TO the mamelon,
land we would like to have a fair duel
with her." Airey took up the challenge
at once, and everything was arranged for
IL O'Clock noon next day When the time
arrived all the batteries on both sides ceased
firing. A large number of officers, French
and English, were assembled at our lookout
station behind the 21-gun battery to look
on.
Our sailors gun detachment mounted on
their parapets and took off their hats,
salutfng the Russians The Russians re.
turned the compliment. The English gun
was given the first shot as the senior gun.
1t struck the side of the Russian embrasure.
Then they fired-a very good shot, too.
The third shot from Jenny went cleaD
through the Russian embrasure, and up
went two gabions. The bluejackets jumped
up on their parapet and cheered, thinking
they had beaten their opponents. Not bitI
minute afterward down went the gabions
and out came the Russian gun again Sew.
eral more shots were fired from both sides,
good ones Jenny got a nasty thump,
but it did her no harm. At length-I think
the seventh shot from our side-we saw the
Russian gun Knocked clean over. Our fell
lows cheered vociferously and the Russians
their parapets and took off their
hats in acknowledgment of their defeat.
All the batteries then opened again. ThuS
ended the great gun duel.

SCIENTIFIC JOTS.

In portions of northern Siberia the ground
is not merely frozen but consists in part of
layers of Ice alternating with layers of sand,
and these ice-nIasses must be many thou
sands of years old. In such regions ice is
as much a rock as sandstone is.
remarkable invention for killing the
weeds along railroad tracks is now in use.
Electricity, as is known, will destroy vege-
table tissue if strong enough. A car IS
provided with an engine, an alternating
dynamo and induction coll. The electrical
current passes down to a metal strip, which
is dragged over the track, the strip having
many fine wires projecting from it into the
weeds on each side Every weed is touched
and instantly killed:
Prof Crooks thinks that If the electric
lights were universal to-day the candle, II
suddenly introduced, would he thought
a wonderful invention, as it enables a per-
son to obtain light In its simplest and most
portable form and without the use of cum
brous machinery or The necessity of attach
ing the lamp to any fixed point by means
Of wire before it can be lighted.
Platinum has been drawn into smooth
wire so fine thatit could not be distinguished
by the naked eye, even when stretched
across a piece of white cardboard.

CURRENT TOPICS.

According to the Atlanta Constitution,
a Western Alabama editor WAS writing up
a local theatrical performance recently
and desired to give the participants fiat
tering notice, SO he mentioned the names
OF several young ladies Of the town and
wrote: They all filled their parts to
perfection" Then he went home. When
the paper appeared it was found that the
printer had put an m in place of an 'r"
in the word .parts." OF course. it was
an awkward dilemma for the poor editor,
but when the hloomcr craze shall have be-
come a little more widely adopted, such
embarrassing mistakes Will probably be
passed by unheeded.
1t is still a belief widely held that a
season especially rich in the yield OF
wild fruits and nuts presages a cold and
snowy winter. So far, the wild fruits
have been unusually plenteous, and there
is promise of an equally abundant nut
crop. Wild strawberries, raspberries and
blackberries have been large, extremely
sweet and plentiful. Wild cherries,
from which is made that delectable cor
dial, cherry bounce, have been very abun-
daut, but have suffered somewhat from
the ravages of birds. The uutcrop already
promises Well. Hickory nuts have almost
attained their full size, while the chestnuts
which only recently lost their tass els,
have begun to show small furry burrs.
Walnuts, too, are very promising.
Among the many favors allowed the con-
victs in the Michigan State prison. says
the Chicago Record, is that of keeping
and caring for birds. There are fully 600
feathered songsters in this institution, all
owned and cared for by the inmates. Many
of the most hardened criminals, who
from their general appearance and his
tory would not be expected to care for
anything of a refining nature, tenderly
care for and caress their little pets. Be-
sides being permitted to keep the birds
for the sake of their company and influ-
ence, the convicts are also allowed to
raise them to sell, and many a dollar is
credited to the accounts OF the prisoners
from this source OF course, the convicts
handle uone of the money realized from the
sale of the birds until he is discharged,
but it is placed to his credit in the prison
bank 1t is said that the character of the
convict can in almost every instance be
safely estimated from the care he gives
his feathered friends.
