Cartfacatee Of Death.

Who can tell how many persons are
buried alive every year? How many
cases Of suspended animation are there
on record, and how many horrors that
are never known save by accident.
when once in a while some grave is
opened and discoveries are made that
shock whole communities. There is
not, up to date, any certain test for
death, although there have been ex-
periments and trials innumerable.
After exhausting all of the resources
Of science, medical experts have ar
rived ut the conclusion that the only
certain test Of death is the condition of
the body. Until there are unmistakable

A very pretty experiment in "com-
Elementary colors" may be made as
shown in the accompanying illustra-
ton. In front of an upright white
screen place two lighted candles, and
between the candles and the screen a
long book or photograph album.
Having fashioned out of cardboard a
little imp, place him upon the book,
and you will have two images thrown
UPON the screen. Now hold between
the candle on the right and the imp 4
glass filled with Redeemed water, and
one of the images will appear red while
the other will disappear. But look q
little more attentiYely and you will see
the second image in pale green, the
complementary color of the red.
Use yellow water, or beer, in the
glass. and while one image will have
that color, the other will be violet. Use
blue water, and the complementary COL

Kite Flying According to Science.

Ktte-Flying According to Science.
A good deal has been said OF late
about scientific kite-dying. This does
not mean particularly as to method,
but as to results. The explora-
ton Of the upper air by this means
is conducted in the search for knowl-
edge. There are two sorts OF kites,
both tailless. One is a simple convex
surface, somewhat in a diamond shape;
another is described by scientist as
two boxes of cloth, without top or bot
tom, and fastened together on the same
frame little distance apart. The con-
vex kite has been for many years
known to the Chinese and Malays. but
its modification and present form are
the invention of Mr.. Eddy. and the kite
is called by his name. The cloth-box
kite is the invention of an Australian
gentleman, and is the outcome OF ex-
periments in the direction of flying
machine. Kite-flyers are well aware
that kite in motion in q stih breeze
has tremendous force, and the pull OF
large kite has been likened to the
tug of a whale on a line. It has fire.
Quently taxed the strength of four men
to hold large kites that are used for
making explorations in the air
couple of thousand feet above the
earth's surface. Wind currents and
furries are the greatest obstacles in the
way Of these investigations. A kite
that will float in a light breeze must
necessarily be slender and delicate.
When this is caught in some of the
strong currents that it encounters, it
is simply twisted into fragments.
Large kites are more easily handled
than small ones; the wind gets much
better purchase on them. and they are
much more steady and comfortable.
In gale of forty miles an hour, the
pull is from five to eight pounds per
square foot for a kite of forty square
feet of surface. Kite-flying is great
sport under ordinary circumstances.
but when one flies for ideas and infor-
nation it is infinitely more interesting.

wHISKER CUTTING

Which Nearly Resulted Fatally for n
Chesterfield Man Whose Throat Was
Cut "from Ear 10 Ear
A Chesterfield man with luxuriant hir-
suite adornments went TO Keene recently
with two or three younger men, and all Of
the party are said to have gazed upon the
wine when it was red. On the way home he
of the whiskers was sleeping soundly, and
his companions thought il would be a great
joke TO give him a free shave. Taking q
sharp knife one of the young men began
saving away upon the whiskers. The vic
tim sud- 'nly attempted TO arise, and the
knife slashed into his throat, cutting it
nearly from ear TO ear. The man bled
profusely and his companions were greatly
frightened. They drove to Dr. Buffers s,
and leaving their victim on the doorstep
rang the bell and fastened away. DR..
Butler on coming TO the door found the
man very weak from loss of blood, but by
prompt treatment was able TO save his life.
The man is now recovering, but had there
been delay Of 10 minutes more in taking
him TO DR.. Buffers il is probable that the
story would have made one of the greatest
sensations Chesterfield ever knew.

CHESTERFIELD SENSATIONS
SHOOTING ARRAY.
Burton c. Thatcher Fired Upon Daniel
Msrston, Former EmpIoye.

marstOn, Former Enploye.
Much excitement was manifested among
the people of Chesterfield, when, on Sat.
urday morning, ii became known that
! Daniel Marston, a farm hand, had been
| shot in the thigh the evening before by his
recent employer, Burton G. Thatcher.
harston had worked for Thatcher for
about year and half. The term of ser.
vice agreed upon between the two men
expired Oct. 1, and on Friday mornin g,
Oct. 2, MarstOn was paid and discharged.
Neighbors report hearing violent language
between the men at the time Of settlement
and people who saw Marston about the ho-
tel and store during the day and evening,
say he talked angrily about the Thatcher
family.
Between $3.50 and 10 o clock Friday even
ing James Goodrich was aroused by shouts
and knocks upon the door of his residence
a few rods south of the Thatcher home
stead. Opening the door he found Mars
ton who said he had been shot. Upon in
vestigation Mr.. Goodrich found a bullet
wound on the outside of the mans left
thigh, not far below the hip.
Acting upon the advice Of Mr.. Goodrich,
Marston, accompanied by friend, return
ed TO the house of his assailant, who con-
other men, TO the office of DIR. Craig of
Westmoreland. The doctor probed in
vain for the ball and Marston was taken
TO the Chesterfield hotel where he is now
confined to the bed.
Mr.. Thatcher's story Of the affair is sub
stantially as follows: "Marston was very
angry with me Friday morning. He
threatened to get even with me- for turn
ing him off and said that he Would make
me sorry for it, etc. heard of like re-
marks that he made about the village and
went to bed feeling that he would very
likely set fire to some Of my buildings or
do some mischief before morning. Soon
after we retired Marston began prowling
about the house. When spoken to from
window or door he would disappear for a
short time and then come back and try
the doors or rattle the windows. At
length / was startled by seeing his face at
the window close to the bed on which my
wife and little child were lying. The win
dow is so near the bed that by breaking
the glass he could easily have reached
them. seized my revolver, thinking that
by firing it might scare him away. The
revolver is a self cooking one and was dis
charged before l had fully made up my
mind 10 fire. / did not intend to hit Mars
ton"
Marston claims that he expected TO
sleep at Thatcher's house that nj ght and
that he was trying to get someone to come
and let him in. The wound is by no
means a dangerous one and unless blood
poisoning should set in no serious results
are likely to follow from it. No arrests
have been made.
