presence of the spectators, lowered into
a grave nine feet deep.
The lid of the casket was furnished
with an aperture, and this connected
with the shaft which led to the surface,
making respiration possible, and also
enabling spectators to view the face
of the buried man.
At least. seven feet of earth were
shoveled on top of the coffin, and for
the period of six days it was not dis
turbed.
On the seventh day the casket was
dug up in the presence of a large
crowd. The man when awakened was
apparently none the worse for his ex-
perience.
The London Lancet, which prints the
account of the distressing spectacle
comments on it, saying:
1T is difficult to imagine more re-
voting experiment than this Even
granting that these frances have any
use whatever-which we ourselves fail
to admi.-there can be no possible
excuse for making them more horri-
BILE than they already are by burying
the man.
ANY experiment it was desired to
perform could have been done equally
well by sealing the man up in the box
without going through the details of
burying him and digging him up again.
Moreover, under such circumstances, it
is impossible to give him aid quickly
Should he need it, and, although acct
dents may be rare in hypnotism, their
possibility is by no means to be neg
lected,"

ON THE TRACK of BURGLARS.

rs that cop comm ?"
mo, no; you fool; get your jimmy
readyI'
But there's somebody COMM
Come, get to work; I'm not goin' to
stand here all night"
These dreadful words were heard by a
mild-mannered citizen as he was passing
big apartment house in Eighteenth
street, between Fifth and Sixth avenues,
at about o clock yesterday morning. The
street was deserted, the night was both
dark and still, very ideal season for
burglars, and the dialogue came from the
depths of the basement of the fiat house,
says the New York Herald.
The timid citizen felt his marrow con-
geal, and he looked this way and that
hoping for the friendly CLINT of brass but
tons. But the guardians of the peace were
firmly intrenched in sheltering doorways
in some other neighborhood. He asked
himself If he should enter that basement
and peril his life. Then he remembered
the maxim OF his good old father, When
in doubt mind your own business" and
he walked on.
AT Broadway, however, he saw police
man, to whom he related what he had
heard.
You come along with me-" said the
bluecoat, because this thing is out of my
beat and 1 shall want you to tell the
roundsman that you reported the matter
to me-
AS they walked the policeman frightened
volver.
DO you think there'n be shooting?'
asked the citizen apprehensively.
Like as not" returned the other. Gust
you wait at the top of the basement
stairs and if anybody comes out while I'm
below, plug him with your cane
The citizen looked ruefully at his slen-
der walking stick as the policeman wound
the thong of his night stick around his
great right hand and descended into the
basement of the flat house. Soon from the
depths arose the murmur of hoarse voices
and presently bare, disheveled head
arose to the level of the sidewalk. The
policeman followed, grinning.
An right said the blucoat; "it was
only the janitor and his friend having a
talk. His friend was telling him about a
burglary down where he lived"
The citizen has decided that the next
time he mixes up in any fiat house trou-
BILE it will be because the burglars come
forth and deliver unto him document
signed and sealed to the effect that they
are out for the stuff aimed to the
teeth and not to be baked by timid citi.
Zens. I'll.

AUSTRALIAN BEE HUNT.
How the Natives Find the Well
Filled Hives.

t1Ileu HlVeS.
An Australian savage comes up to
an Irishman's idea of human skill, for
The bates the bees" A native seldom
fails to get honey when he discovers
the bee he has been watching for. The
following description of natives bee
hunt is given in Mr.. Arthur's Exam
CARGO and Kauri;"
Warruyallah, the chief of a tribe,
went with two little nets to a small
pool, filled his mouth with water. and
then, lying DOWN, his head hanging
over the pool, he remained quiet for an
hour, apparently looking at his own
reflection in the water. Then the hum
of a bee was heard. Buzz-z-z it went
over the pool, round the blacks head,
now on one side, now on the other, and
now close to his ear; but not a motion
betrayed the bee hunter.
But when the bee, dropping close to
the water, gave notice by the change
of it's tune that it was about to sip, the
chief, with a snort, squirted the water
from his mouth over the little "buzz-
err" Before it had time to recover
from the unexpected douche, he seized
it dexterously by the wings.
Then he prepared it for the chase by
fastening it to bunch of wild cotton
with some gum. The bee was let go; it
made for its hive, slowly at first on ac-
count of its novel burden, which i'm
peded it's progress and showed a sign
in the air for the chief to follow Over
bramble and brake went the chief, ac-
companied by the men of his tribe, and
in half an hour halted at the foot of an
immense gum tree, into whose top the
bee had gone.
The chief mounted quickly, by cut
ting notches into the bark with his
stone tomahawk. In a short time he
brought down a quantity. of honey
comb small piece only of which con-
tanned honey. The Australian bees are
stingless.

Six Thousand Head of Sheep Being
Handled Each Day.
A hasty trip to Fort Steele Monday
showed that little town to be full of bust
ness. Sixty sheep shearers were at work
in the Cosgriff Bros pens at the old gov
eminent warehouse. They began to shear
April Goth, and had been steadily at work
since that date, and were hauling 6,O0G
sheep a day. Fifteen carloads of wool
had been shipped east by Monday noon,
and an estimate showed that about 10000
more sheep were to be sheared before
the season closed.
The buildings made sheltered corral
for the sheep. The dip is kept at a GER
tain temperature by steam pipes empty
ing into it, and a steam boiler runs the
machinery, belts, pulleys, etc. necessary
to bale the wool. a car stands adjacent
to the warehouse and the wool as fast
as baled is loaded into the car and dis
patched on its way east. In addition to
the number of shearers some forty or
fifty men are employed in the various
duties incident to the shearing and
large payroll is distributed weekly among
the men.-Rawlins Journal.
