why Ice is More slippery Than Glass.

why Ice is More slippery Than Glass.
Ice has the property-pecu to
bodies which expand on freezing-of
liauifying under pressure and soildi-
fying again when the pressure has
been removed. Consequently the
weight of any body moving upon q
sheet of ice causes the formation OF 9
thin layer of water, which separates It
from the ice, and thus, by reducing
the friction to a minimum, enables 1t
to move smoothly over the surface
| i. e.. make the ice more slippery.
On glass, on the contrary. this liquid
medium is wanting, SO that the two
solid and unyielding bodies come
into actual physical contact, causing 9
friction, which, in spite of the smooth
ness of the glass, considerably re-
ltards the motion of the body. II two
smooth sheets of glass be taken and
few drops of water sprinkled over thu
one and the other placed about 1t,
thin layer of water will be formed
and until this layer has been presses
out the upper glass will move on tn
other as smoothly as if on ice. Thi
peculiar property of ice is due to tn
| effect OF pressure in lowering tn
4 freezing point Of water, SO that when
ever ice IS subjected to great pressur
| It partially melts. Brooklyn Times.

CHAPTER X.
erHAr HAPPY BIRD. ,,

eTHAT HAPPY BIRD"
Edgar Arden laid down the last page
of nv iady's story with an air OF ineff-
able reverence; his whole manhood rose
up in indignant protest against the cruel
wrongs which had been heaped upon
that sweet, devoted woman; he longed
to be up and doing in her defense
sWho will break your chain ana SET
Won free, sweet soul?" murmured he
with generous emotion. Il VIII, II man
can do it. !"
He recalled tho long kept mystery
which had hung about his kinsman lnch-
cape, thought of his friends kept at
distance. his noble aspirations laid down
oil unfnifil,ed: how the proud man had
suffered in thus wronging his innocent
wife.
To bring back happiness, honor, Q
mr. nd name ,indicated-would not that
10 n triumph worth striving for? And
tho Young mans heart glowed In heroic
tmnnIse. For he loved his kinsman, as
the vounQ French soldier loves the hrst
Nanoleon. for tho traditions OF his grs at
ness and for the pity of his downfall.
Vet In forming this resolve, Edgar
was not blind to the difference IT might
wake IN his own fair future. As long as
NV Lord Inchcape lived In estrangem2 nj
from his wife, Edgar Arden was his heir
Tor Eve wears he had believed himself TIT

hoped that she will as usual do the matter
up in right royal style.
Though this is the fifteenth annual re-
union of this regiment none of the annual
meetings have yet been held as far north as
Owosso, the greater number of the COM
panies coming from the southern part OF
the state, their rendezvous being at Kala
mazoo. This year Owosso is the favored
spot, 1t being the most central point In
Shiawassee and Clinton counties from which
Co. b of the Eleventh was recruited. There
are about a dozen members of the regl
ment living within a few miles of Owosso,
those in this city being Dr.. G. A. Osborn,
Charles Hunt, William Powers and Joe
Terrill. Geo. T. Mason, of Owosso town.
ship, was also member and Is now vice.
president of the organization.
The regiment will hold its regular busi-
ness meeting in the afternoon Wednesday
in the G. A. r. hall In this city. In the
evening there will be a banquet in the
Armory and an interesting program. headed
with an address of welcome by the mayor,
will follow. Between one hundred and fifty
and two hundred visitors are expected. The
spread will be served at Z o'clock and the
hall opened to visitors at o'clock.
On inquiry THE TIMES learns that in
previous years the cities In which the regi.
ment has held its reunions have taken hold
OF the matter with good deal of enthu-
siasm, the citizens providing the banquet at
their expense. The boys we'll realize that
our city has done about all it can be expected
to do in such lines and hence the committee
in chsrge has refused to consider any such
propositions. The committee suggests how
ever that If business men and citizens in
general would decorate the stores and dwell
ings next Wednesday the act would be
greatly appreciated and in fact nothing
more is desired.

Private Lewis Dead.

Word was received Tuesday afternoon
announcing the death of Private Leon
Lewis, of Company G, 33d Mich, at Mon
tauk Point, that morning from diphtheria,
the report being sent by Dennis Donahue,
the News Tribune correspondent.
When Company g left Cuba, Lewis was
too sick with typhoid fever to be moved,
aud he did not reach Montauk Point until
considerably later. After getting back on
American soil, however, he was taken sick
with diphtneria before he had chance'to
communicate directly with his parents. and
not word was ever heard directly from
him. Even the letters which were sent to
him we're all returned to the writer's with
out his ever seeing them.
About two weeks ago the suspense be-
came so uncomfortable that William Lewis
went east to get his son and bring him
home II possible Instead OF being able TO
do this he was himself taken with dlph-
iberia aud was even reported to be in a
dangerous condition.
