Arrested a Merchant.

Quite an exciting arrest was made
on South Alamo street early this
morning by Colored Policeman
Ellis. He had made an affidavit
against Mr.. G. p. Koch, fur mer-
chant, for violation Of the ordinance
regulating signs and proceeded
to make the arrest. Mr.. Koch OBJ
jected to being taken through the
streets by a colored officer and
broke away from him. Ellis then
drew his pistol and fired two shots
after him and subsequently he was
arrested.
His case comes up before the re-
corder tomorrow. Mr.. Koch says
Ellis was sore at him because one
day last week Ellis tried to talk to
one of his lady customers and he
ordered him out of his place. He
also says Ellis refused to allow
him to give bond for his appear
ance in court.
The case will possibly form the
basis OF police committee invCsti-
cation.

Aspiring Insects.

When Prof. George E. Hale was max
ing experiments in photographing the
sun from the top of Pixies peak, in
July, 1898, he noticed swarms of insects
flying high above the mountains and SO
numerous that the reflection of light
from their bodies added considerably to
the brightness of the sky. In Jnly last
Prof Hale, from the observatory on
the summit of Mount Etna, again no.
ticed clouds of insects, whose presen ce
affected the transparency of the sky.
A correspondent who last summer as
cended the Pichaco de Velets, the huge
snow-pointed mountain in the Sierra
Nevada, II, 500 feet high, which looks
down upon Granada on one side and
upon the Mediterranean on the other,
was surprised to see scattered over the
rocks and snow about the summit
great numbers of coccinella beetles, or
"ladybugs." He caught fine speci-
men on the topmost crag and put it in
pocket postage-stamp case.
He was not less surprised when, upon
opening his lunch basket, he was as
sailed BY a swarm of flies which, if they
were not on a mountain-exploring ex-
/ pedition had certainly chosen strange
| ~ lofty aud barren dwelling-place.
| These facts confirm what others have
observed of the occasional prevalence
of familiar insects at elevations which
might have been supposed to be beyond
| their reach.-I IOuth'S Companion.

\ Story of the Duke of York.

As boy the duke of York was thor
ougly mischieyous. Many of his pranks
were played on that famous voyage
round the world. We all know how, at
4 great dinner in Hong Kong, he was
discovered covertly pulling the pigtaiIs

was at Bombay, when a large enter

young princes between the parts of an

music of the bandmen, so that when
they returned to their places poor,
bewildered tlutist found the score of the
cornet upon his music-stand and a vio-
linist the page OF the pianist.
But the prince had always another
side to his character. An Australian
bishop at whose house the princes stayed
for a week or two offered a bible to both
as a parting gift. Quite recently the
bishop was invited to Sandringham.

Healing Properties in Ashes.

Some Of the best-known physicians in
Russia are strongly advocating the
adoption in the Government hospitals
of an old COssack custom of treating
cuts and wounds with ashes The Cos
sack peasantry have treated cases in
this fashion from time immemorial. and
DR.. Parshkoff a Russian physician who
has been studying the treatment recent
ly said in an interview in a Russian
medical journal: Il strongly recon-
mend the treating of severe cuts and
wounds with ashes. Experiment has
convinced me of the thorough efficacy
of the treatment, and, in addition, it is
cheap, takes little time to arrange, and
does away with bulky bandages, which
have always been the bane of nurses
and physicians. The best ashes are
those resulting from the burning of
some cotton stuff or linen, and only a
very thin layer should be applied. If
the wound has been made by some
dirty instrument and there is danger of
blood poisoning, it should first. be
washed thoroughly with a lotion. The
ashes with the blood forms hard sub
stance, under which the most severe cuts
heal with remarkable rapidity." DR..
ParshkOff has experimental with ashes
on twenty-eight cases of cuts, and only
two of the entire number failed to result
successfully. These cases would have
been cured, too, had not the nurses
failed to apply prescribed lotions to the
wounds before the physicians took them
in charge. 1t is extremely probable
that the ashes treatment will he adopt
cd in the St. Petersburg hospitals be-
fore long.-N l. SIN.

Effect of Ball Bearings.

An experiment with ball bearings
was recently made in Canada. A street
car. fitted with ball bearings, was drawn
a distance of several hundred feet by
men pulling on three strands of ordi-
nary sewing thread. A carriage man
ufacturer put another style of ball bear
inos on the axles Of coach ordinarily
pulled by four horses. A trained dog
was hitched to the pole and he drew the
coach around the yard with little effort:
The combination Of pneumatic tires and
ball bearings would evidently relieve
much of the strain now put on horses
drawing heavy vehicles, and here is
tip for an enterprising carriage builder.
