PHOTOGRAPHING A SHOT.

Recent achievements in the moving
photography that has produced the
animathograph biograph, cinemato-
graph, and other representations of
motion are not more wonderful than
the lately perfected photography OF
the flying bullet. Prof. c. Vernon
Boys, F. r. s., has worked on this
seemingly unsolvable problem with
great success, as have also two italian
artillery officers.
In the course of lecture on the
subject, Mr.. Boys demonstrated that
the ordinary notion that an electric
spark is instantaneous was quite er-
roneous and stated that the light
of the two ends of the ordinary electric
spark lasted little less than the one
hundred thousandth part of second.
1t was, Of course, instantaneous to our
senses, but to tests which could meas
ure accurately to the one-hundred mil
lionth part of a second the electric
spark was anything but instaneous.
This spark was no good for taking the
photograph of a flying bullet, as the
lecturer showed by exhibiting one of
his attempts, which made quite blur
red picture.
Mr. Boys then proceeded to explain
the steps which he took in order to re-
duce the length of time of the electric
spark. To this end it was essential
that the terminals should be made of
copper, platinum or some metal which
did not produce readily an ignitible
vapor, and the electric current must
not be driven through wires at ALL He
used a very thick, broad band Of cop
per, not more than two inches long,
which reached around the edge of the
plate, so that the electric current had
not more than three or four inches to
go altogether. He explained by dia-
grams how he had effected his object
and shortened the time of the spark to
about one thirteen millionth of Sec
ond, or about 100 times quicker than
the ordinary flash.
To give the audience some idea of
the inifnitesimal fraction of time, he
said the time occupied by the spark as
reduced by his apparatus was proper
tionately as much less than second
as second was less than five months,
and during that time bullet fired
from magazine rifle could not traevl
more than five hundredth part of an
inch. By this simple contrivance he
was able to get a brighter and shorter
spark and all that was necessary to
make good and sharp picture.

between restless and a restful soul.
10 get music from an instrument
that is out of tune is impossible. Re
lglon simply recognizes the fact that
you are not in tune with the laws of
the universe and then takes snch steps
as are necessary to put you in accord
with them. When this consummation
has been reached you will still make
dissonance now and then for our human
nature so weak but you will appreciate
the best kind of music, and you will
play it more and more frequently every
year Of your life.

We have Prot Roberts permission

farmer and runs as below:
In The hurry and unrest of new
few have time or inclination
to become familiar with plant and an
imal life as seen in the field and wood,
and fewer still have looked upon the
surface of the earth as anything but a
mass of dirt, the particles of which are
to be avoided or removed whenever
they ffend the sight or interfere with
comfort.
Fill fower-pot with the soft, dark
earth and mold from the border of the
wood, and carry it to the student of
entomology, and see if he can name
one half of the living forms Of this little
kingdom of life; or hand it to the ho-
tanist. we'll trained in the lower orders
OF plants, and see how many OF the liv-
ing forms which these few handtuls of
dirt contain he can classify. Present
this miniature farm to the chemist and
the physicist, and let them puzzle over
it. Call in the farmer, and ask him
what plants will thrive best in it; or
keep the soil warm and moist for a
time, and have the gardener say of
the tiny plants that appear as by mag
ic which are good and which are bad.
Mark well what all these experts have
said, and call in the orchardist to tel
you how to change dead. lifeless, de-
spised earth into fruit; ask the physi-
ologist to explain how sodden earth is
transformed into nerve and brain.
With this extended little field IN view

you love rural pelsuits, but c,.m;,re

they are almost incomprehensibIe.
The American inherts from his Eu
ropean ancestors an inordinate desire
for landed estates. In earlier days
many farmers acquired land by the
square mile, and all secured more than
they could farm well. The Federal
government sold at nominal prices
gave away and indirectly forced land
upon all comcrs, not even reServlng
the hilly timber lands which, if they
had been reserved. would have tenn

ever-present source of wealth. The

lands has tended to produce soil-rob.

steam power has made the products of

THE CONFEDERATE FLAG.

The quarterly meeting of the Baltimor
chapter, United Daughters of the Confed
eracy, was marked at its last meeting b
the reading of an original poem on the
Confederate flag. composed and read b
The poem is as follows:
1.-The hands OF our women made it,
Baptised in our mothers t-ars
And drenched with the blood of our kindred
With hope for those four long years.
Across vale and plane we watched it
While the tide Of battle rolled,
And with steamng eyes have we followed
The wave of each soft silken fold.
As high DER hosts it hoated,
Through dust and din OF the liz tt
We could catch the CLINT of spear heal
And the flash Of crimson light;
While the blood Of men who bore it
Flowed fast on the reddene,l plain,
And our cry went up in anguish
To our God for our martyred slain.
And we wept and watched and waited
By our lonely househOd fire,
For the mother gave her first born
And the daughter gave her sire,
And the wife sent forth her husband,
The maiden her lover sweet,
And hearts kept time in the silence
To the rhythmic tread OF their feet
As they marched DER vale and mountain,
While our banner rose and fell,
Though victory often crowned it
AS the Northern hosts can tell.
But the whole world was against u.s.
Our battle was fought alone,
Till the conQuerors-Want AMI Famine
Bade us lay our colors down.
Cold are the loved hands that bore it,
Stled are the brave hearts and true,
Watching nor waiting can bring them,
Weeping is all we can do.
Light from our banner had ia led,
We. in its shadow forlorn,
Have only our mem'res left US,
And our battle flag dropping and torn.
No hand OF vandal shall touch it.
'Tis shrned III our heart OF hearts
With dearest, holiest mem'res;
And the burning tear drop starts,
While laurel we weave and cypres1
For the fair, the brave, the good
The only stain on our banner
Is the stain Of our heroes BLOOD

GOOD HEALTH

long sustain ITSELF Thus the fortifi-
cation of good health are broken down
and the system is liable to attacks of

medicinal powers of Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla are clearly shown. Thousands
who have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla
testify to its great merits rs a purifier
of the blood, it's powers to restore and

Thus it is, not what we say but what
Hoods Sarsaparilla does that tells the
story and constitutes the strongest
recommendation that can be urged for
any medicine. Why not take Hoods

MARY DAVIS INSANE.
The Jury Decides She should BE Sent
to the state Asylum.

Mary Davis, the negro woman who was
sentenced to spend three years on the
chain-gang for assaulting three we'll
known ladies on CASTOR street little
more than two weeks ago, was tried be-
fore a jury In the court of ordinary es-
terday on a charge of lunacy.
1t will be remembered that the woman
created considerable commotion In the city
court at the time by her remarks to Judge
Norwood. Judge Norwood remarked at
the time that If her friends thought she
was crazy, they should have her tried for
lunacy. He did not appear to think her
mind was much affected at the time, al
he sentenced her for her offenses.
Two letters from Liberty county one
from DR.. K. A. Quarterman and one from
E. p Miller, clerk of the county commits
sioners' court, were produced before the
Jury. Both of them stated that the wo-
man had had fits of insanity when she
lived there and that they believed her
crazy. Her mother and sister also testi-
fed that she was crazy, her trouble hav
ing begun with epileptic fits.
DR.. T. b. Chisholm, the county physi-
clan. who examined her some time ago.
and gave a certificate to the effect that
she was not crazy, announced that he
had since reached a different conclusion
from subsequent examination. There
were times, he said, when she was vio-
lent. and she had to be kept locked up at
the iail all the time The jury unhesitat-
ingly pronounced her insane, and as soon
as she can be received at the state asy-
lum. she will be sent there.
