When a Chicago Man Wants Com

The Chicago man who had gone on
a business trip and snrted home
again. He had been compelled to run
through several streets to catch the
train, and was somewhat Overheated.
The temperature of the long car was
over 100 degrees, and still climbing.
He stood it for about five minutes,
and then tried to open the window. 1t
was one of those windows not built
for opening purposes, and didn't open.
He tried another window with the
same result. The third window stuck
equally tight, and he raised his foot
and kicked a large hole through the
plate glass.
The conductor heard the crash and
came running into the car.
"WhO broke that Window" he de-
manded, threateningly.

Among the fishes which are capable
of giving severe electrical shocks the
torpedo, or electric ray, a member of
the skate tribe, stands u prominent
ly. This fish has a couple of complex
batteries lodged in the sides of its
headparts and the discharge of these
organs Is fraught with dire effects to
the animals which may chance to
come in the way of this living maya
zine. The electricity is generated by
the v system: that is to say, so
much nerve force when passed through
or into the electrical organ is con-
verified into electricity. Prof. d'Arsno-
val of the College of France tells us
that in the case of a torpedo meas
uring in diameter thirty centimeters
the shock given by this animal
amounted to twenty volts. He lighted
up several electrical lamps by the dis
charge from the fish and this dis
charge was powerful enough in some
cases to carbonize the lamps. 1t is
said that a powerful torpedo may give
a discharge measuring 100 volts. This
of course is more than sufficient to
kill prey of ordinary size.-Chicago

The marriage of college women is a
subject that has lately dllled out
many statistics and much subsequent
speculation.
Miss Millicent w. Shinn has been
carefully gathering together statistics
from the women's colleges in America,
and she finds that the ultimate prob
ability of a college woman's marriage
is below 55 per cent, as against 30 per
e n for other women-not quite two
thirds as great.
College women marry most in the
Middle West, and least in the North
Atlantic states, and Miss Shinn de-
clares that the reason is not that they
raw a public life, but largely because
they are employed as teachers in girls
schools, a station in life more inimical
to marriage than any other saw that

The venerable and familiar moral
tale of the bad little boy who offered
the circus elephant a chew of tobacco
is far surpassed in ethical force by the
new and strictly truthful story of
eleven-year-old Harry Manning Of
Waltham, Mass. Harry has been
learning to smoke cigarettes, and one
was sitting on a barrel behind North
rup's grocery practicing, when he
heard footsteps. Not caring to smoke
in company, he politely dropped his
lighted cigarette into the bung-hole of
the barrel Oh which he sat. The state
ment is that when the moral elephant
in the other story received the chew
of tobacco he seized Tommy, the evil
doer, by the coat collar. with the
thumb and finger of his trunk and
threw him harshly out through the
roof Of the circus tent. The event in
Harry's case was still more precip-
itous and surprising. The barrel he
sat OH contained naphtha, and re-
jected the lighted cigarette with an
instantaneous burst of emotion which
sundered it's hoops and gave Harry
all the symptoms experienced by the
boy who stood on the burning deck
whence all but he had fed. Happily,

cable.
To propel balloons and the various
forms of airships, so-called, by some
kind of screw propeller, much after
the followed in current steam
ship practice, has for a long time been
enc of the aims of ~aeronautic enthu-
siasts. To equip an ordinary ship,
however, i'm its legitimate element
with air propellers, or, in other words,
with propellers revolving in the air
instead of in the water, and to effect
propulsion solely by their aid, is n
of the latest suggestions of the times.
1t has been proposed to make these
air ~propellerS similar in shape to the
ordinary water screw, with sails or
blades of thin sheet metal, and it is
said to have been found, experiment
ally, that for equal numbers of revo-
lutions equal intensity of thrust, en-
CINE power and speed, the area of the
propeller should be about twelve times
that of the water screw. A big Allan
tic liner, skimming over the sea with
what would look like a string of chill
dren's mammoth pinwheels N each
side, spinning around in the air, is the
startling vision for which. apparently,
we are called upon to prepare Our-
selves.

Those incredulous persons who may
not be convinced by the Wilderness of

fact that corn husks are unusually

down hill, around the sharp curves

them flies at more than a mile a min
