Crookes tube and the large opera glass
The result, says NJ Pallain. was
astonishing. The first thing I looked at
was an ordinary box Of cigars, wrapped
in heavy paper. was able to see them
distinctly, and to count them. first on
the top layer and then on the ends
Afterward we placed a plush arm
chair in position, and was able 10
see the interior, springs and all Last,
we took a small box that had come by
packet post; it was tightly sealed,
and the x rays disclosed the fact that
it contained a pair G. sleeve buttons.
which We're perfectly stinct.
The practicability of this mode of
examination is what makes the expert
ments so valuable. The apparatus used
is simple in construction, easily ma
nipulated. and quick in results. The
operation requires but a few minutes,
and it may be conducted in any room
which may be made seni-dark- In the
room which we have used for expert
menJing we did nothing in the way of
preparation. but draw the curtains
1T is undoubtedly true that SNUG
glers and other evil disposed persons
would be able to cfrcumvent the GER
tain detection OF contraband articles
in trunks and packages by such an
examinations: but that does not disturb
US, because, should we adopt the x
ray method, il VIII be merely used as
an aid. and il no sense regarded as de-
terminative and infallibie. At present,
for instance. our inspectors are obliged
to open everything. This takes great
deal of time. and makes trouble for
officials and travellers alike: and, even
at the best. such an inspection must be
very often superficial. Now that is just
where the new method comes in. Every
article of baggage Will first be subject
ed to the X-rays; then, of the rays
disclose nothing, the article will be
passed without opening. If. on the
other hand, the rays disclose dutiabie
articles, or evidences which are sus-
Dicious-and l believe than any agency
which smugglers would use to render
the trunk impervious to the rays would
of itself necessarily look suspicious
when outlined on the fiuorescent screens
that trunk or package will be opened
just as il is now. So, You see, after all,
the device is mainly a labor saver. AT
the same time. il will make the inspec-
ton much more thorough, because even
the expert fingers Of customs inspec-
tor do not always land on the contra
band article. and as for his eyes, the x
lays are so far the only spectacles with
which one may look through wood and
DastebOard.'
NJ. Pallain's apparatus is now being
placed in the customs rooms of several
of the larger railway stations, and. pro-
viding that further experiments prove
its practicability, it Will be adopted
generally by the customs service.

THE ENCHANTED MESA
Legend Of the Eminence On Which Foot Of Man
Has Not TrOdden For 500 Years.

only a few sick women and a Young
boy to care for them and TO guard the
pueblo from a raid by the Apaches.
For day or two all went well.
Then the heavens opened and ram
fell as it had never done before in the
knowledge of man. The torrents swept
the Rock Of KatZimo and poured down
in a cataract over the ladder rock Fin
ally the houses of the village began to
fall, and the young guardian OF the
town was told by the women 10 go to
the fields and summon the older men.
II seemed impossible to go through the
raging torrents which covered the trail
in the cleft, but when that was safely
passed the still more terrifying descent
of the ladder remained. After a long
struggle during which the boy was
nearly drowned and many times al
most swept from the face of the
treacherous ladder, the bottom was
reached Once as he came down he
imagined that he felt the mighty col
umn tremble When the bottom was
reached, instead of the sand slope the
startled climber saw a yawning ehasm
before him. which had been cut by the
water He saw d pinon tree stlll hang-
ing on one side of the crumbling bank,
and nerving himself for the effort, he
jumped into the tree-top below and.
bruised and bleeding, reached the
ground.
Hardly had he safely landed, when
he saw the mighty ladder rock, which
had been used for countless genera
tons, give an awful plunge and then
fall across the plain at the foot of XII
limo The people returned from the
fields and made futile efforts to reach
the frantic women they could see run
ming aimlessiy around the edges of
their prison.
Sacrifices were offered and everything
possible was done to appeaSe the
angered deity, bat all in vain
The sorrowful faces that peered i'm
pIoringly over the edge of the pitiless
rock grew fewer as the days grew into
months. and the weak calls for help
were still, and the saddened Acomas
left the Inflated Katzimo and jour
neyed to Acoma. where they live to-
day.
The spirits of those who died are
stil lowering over the Mesa Encan-
tada.' where they are doomed to re-
main until Montezuma comes again to
earth.
This is the Acoma tradition of the
Enchanted Mesa, and explains why it
Is so jealousy guarded. The Aco1nas
are a peaceable people and usually re-
sort to arms only as a means of de-
Tense but some years ago, when
party of white men attempted to scale
the Mesa Encantada" by means OF
iron spikes set in its perpendicular
sides, the Indians turned out in force,
fully armed. and drove the party out of
the valley before they could set single
spike.
Prof Libbey may be more fortunate,
but he is apt to encounter SUPER
stitious opposition TO his plans which
will prove as hard to overcome as the
beetling walls of the mysterious Rock
Of Northumberland News.

The puffball IS a species of fungi with
which people generally are familiar
They usually grow on the ground, gen

usual species is from one to two inches
in diameter.
The one from Camas Prairie is of a
dirty brown color, and every year cnes

on Mr. Vaden's farm.
The largest British species is often
many feet in circumference, and filled
with a loathsome pulDy mass. when
young; but in its mature state its con-
tents are so dry and spongy that they
have often been used for stanching
wounds. Their fumes, when burned.
have not only the power of Supplying
