There will be Il better class Of horses

Tic clever lightweight jockey, Alfred
Kelly, who weighs only 90 pounds, has
arrived in Lexington. He is under con-
tract to ride for Charles Hughes.
Fully many sigh Of relief went up
from the knights of the blackboard in
the betting ring at the Crescent City track
when Tommy Burns packed up his
traps, babe farewell to the paddock, and
quietly departed for Memphis, says the
Louisville Dispatch. Had this clever
lightweight jockey never went to New
Orleans the bookmaking fraternity
would now have several extra layers on
their bank rolls. In sixty-seven days
Burns was first eighty-four times, second
iorty.fve times and third twenty.cight
times.
Truly a remarkable record. Never IA
time did Burns ride. after he began his
winning streak, but that his mount was
literally played by pikers and plungers
alike. Many people prefer to play the
jockeys to the horses, especially when
the horses are Of the SELLING platter va.

If JESUS WERE TO COME TO NEW
YORK

The question OF the appearance OF
Jesus In New York N he appeared In
Judea takes two forms. First, What
would be His Judgment Of the city. Th'
Que stion has only one possible answer
Doubtless His condemnation would fsl
most heavily upon the well-to-do and
prosperous who have taken His name
and do not His work. Doubtless the
grief that He felt over Jerusalem would
be little sbated over New York. AMI
vet He would find more To approve
more 10 be hopeful about, In the modern
world represented bv New York than
lie found In the world TO which He came
Second, How would He be received
Doubtless lie would be hated disturb
ance to the msjoritv, "a His living pres
ence Il now where IL Ia felt In its reality
Doubles, He would be desplsed and
prosecuted "a fanatic and q dis
,urber by the high and mighty
and the hypocrites a. by the rab
BILE and the profigate'. Doubtless
neither the common morality In. living
nor the business morality would welcome
the test OF his justice and purity. But
He would find more who are living In
His spirit. more who would follow Him
gladly, than He found at His coming In
Judea. He would find more charity and
brotherly kindness, q higher standard OF
life than He encountered In the society
In which he began His mission, than ex'
isted in the Rome that crucified ST
Peter, or In the Middle Ages that built
the magnificent temples In His name

SOME THINGS TO REMEMBER RE-
GAROiNG THE EAR.

That the ear-wax is there for pur
pose, and efforts to clean 1t out often re-
suit in irreparable injury to the ear.
That oil should never be put into the
ear, as it forms gummy mass, which
cannot be washed out with water, and
serves to catch the dust, thereby clog
ging up the ear.
That the only proper method OF
cleansing the ear Is by means Of gentle
douche of warm water Ito which small
proportion of soda bicarbOnste has been
added. Anything which can not be
removed In this way should be referred
to a specialist.
That much deafness begins with div
ing in cold water. Surf bathing is even
more dangerous, as large wave strik-
ing the side OF the head may even
rupture the drum of the ear. These dan
gers are partly avoided by the use OF
cotton In the ears while bathing.
That boxing q child's ear may be
followed by rupture Of the drum-head
and desfness.-Pacific Health Journal.

But he wasn't.
He was brought out once more and

A Cord Of Wood.

Few persons comprehend the produc-
tive capacity Of cord Of wood. Chem
ical experiments are occasionally de-
veloping new uses for wood in matters
remote from its ordinary adaptability,
and the feature that is exciting great
deal Of interest just now is the trans
formation Of wood products into liquids.
Although under the strongest kind Of
pressure wood yields scarcely any mois.
ture. by means Of heat wood will evolve
gases and liquids Of marked potency and
utility. In converting wood into char
coal gases and smoke arise which can be
condensed into pyroligneous acid. 1t is
estimated that there is fully 60 per cent
Of this acid in given quantity Of wood,
and from it are extracted wood alcohol,
acetate Of lime and wood tars. The al
cohol thus obtained is said to be very
satisfactory substitute for grain alcohol
for mechanical and manufacturing pur.
poses, and il can be produced ut less
than one-third Of the cost Of the grain
alcohol.
Investigations conducted with prac-
teal objects in view have disclosed
these interesting facts: A cord Of wood
which weighs 1000 pounds will yield
about 1850 pounds Of pyroligneous acid
and 700 pounds Of charcoal; the acid
will produce about o gallons Of 50 per
cent crude wood alcohol, about IS gal
Ions of tar and fully 200 pounds Of ace
tate of lime. These facts indicate fu-
ture for wood outside of the realm Of
fuel and pulp.-New York Times.
