SPEED OF INSECTS.
When Frightened Some Of Them Fly
With Great RapIdity.

1t is the popular belief that the
flight of birds is much swlfter than
that of insects, but number of natur-
alists who have been making a study of
the matter think that such Is not the
case. A common house fly. for exam
pie. is not very rapid in its flight, but
its wings make 800 beats a second, and
send 1t through the air twenty-five
feet. under ordinary circumstances. in
that space of time. When the insect
is alarmed, however, IL has been
found that it increases its rate Of speed
to over $50 feet per second. If 1t could
continue such rapid flight for a mile In
a straight line IL would cover that dis
tance in exactly thirty-three. seconds.
Ii Is not an uncommon thing when
travelling by rail in the summer time
to see bee or wasp keeping UP With
the train and trying to get i'm at one
OF the windows. A swallow IL consd-
cred one of the swiftest flying birds.
and IL was thought until short time
ago that no insect could escape 1t. A
naturalist tells OF an exciting chase
ne saw between aswallow and a dragon
fly, which is among the swiftest of
insects. The insect flew with incred-
ible speed and wheeled and lodged
with such ease that the swallow. de-
spite it's utmost efforts. completely
failed to overtalke and capture Ii.

THE MAN WITH A PULL.

A case OF interest to the professional
lobbyist and political puiler is that OF
one, Colonel Ayres. who brought suit
against wealthy estate for balance

government to condemn some other
site for the mint in Philadelphia rather
than property of his clients. The col
onel persuaded the government officials

pull debt had no standing in law. and

good citizen TO make II known TO the

Il az a matter OF barter and sale.
Colonel Ayres appears to have been
a novice In such work since he did not

SWIMMING.

For all the emergency that puts the
ar, to the supreme test is often of
kind that only prolongs the life strug-
gle. the value of learning 20 swim can
hardly be ovepestimated. To learn to
swim is not hard. and. on the whole,
is more desirable as a part of the edu-
cation Of men and women than is any
other kind OF sport, horse back rid
ing. bicycling, tennis, golf and all the
variety of pleasant and advantageous
athletics which contribute to the head
a sound body.
AS an exercise no one thing Is better
than swimming for all around bodily
development and the cultivation of a
spirit of self reliance. One need not
be physically strong by comparison
with ones fellows to become sufii-
ciently proficient as swimmer TO give
one fair chance for life in struggle
with deep water. Yousouf. the Ter
rible Turk" man OF such magnificent
strength that no other wrestler had
succeeded in overcoming 1t, was lost on
La Bourgogne and. likely enough, he
was not good swimmer. Perhaps he
was, but didn't get chance. At all
events, weaker men kept afioat, one Of
them for eight or nine hours. The sea
was calm. Often, in such disasters,
heavy seas overcome the best swim
mers, but in this case a man who had
so far progressed I'm the art Of SWIM
ming as to have no fear of the plunge
into deep water, and who had escaped
the awful whirlpool from the sinking
ship, could have counted upon keeping
af!oat for many hours. The trick Is not
difficult. 1t is about as easy as walk
ing. No more physical strength Is re-
quired than the average man should
possess in proportion to his weight.
The child who can swim has, in such
an emergency. as good chance for
itself as the strongest man
In the course OF lifetime few Of us
may find life staked on ability to keep
afloat in the water. Conditions may
be such as to nullify the power Of the
most skillful or the most muscular
swimmer. But the instances are
numerous enough of the chances OF
life lost to the man or woman solely
because of the absence OF training in
the natural art of swimming-natural
because nature has given US all. almost
entirely independent of differences of
physical power that count in other
pursuits. the equipment for keeping
ones self afloat in the water. Man was
made to swim as surely as he was
made to walk.

Rosa Males was pretty. Besides, her
people were well to do. as appears.
with her hand and heart there was a
dowry OF a push cart and stock OF
cotton neckties for the fortunate man
that won her. August Schwartz. who
seems to be a particularly engaging
fellow, woed and won Rosa, and had
the push cart and cotton neckties in
sight. when the engagement reception
was interrupted by the appearance OF
three ladies and some six or seven
children distributed among them, who
claimed Schwartz as husband and
father. Schwartz was arrested and a

bigamy. The three wives who thus
pooled their issues are looking for
three more wives which Schwartz is
alleged to have.
Schwartz seems to be the most
Wholesale bigamist yet discovered
hereabouts. But though he had the
marrying fault developed to an un-
usual degree. he is entitled to credit In
that he simply deserted his wives one
after the other instead OF numbering
them. as men of his habit have too
often done.

struck on the outland bank Of the

survivor was an old notary who had
been taken out by the representatives
of the banking houses who were in
charge OF the treasure to advise I'm the

time of the loss England was at war

years later more gold and silver were
brought to the surface, these tokens

Mason Mitchell, . wounded Rough Rider,
Has Had Varied Existencc.
One of the wounded in the recent
valorous attacks upon the Notifications
about Santiago was Mason Mitchell. a
private in Troop X Of Roosevelt's rough
riders. Just how badly Mr.. Mitchell is
wounded the meager dispatches fail to
state, but he has many friends in the
profession who hope that his injuries
ara not serious. Mr.. Mitchell has had a
most picturesque career He has been
actor, manager, hunter, scout, tourist,
writer, and among other exciting inci-
dents in his life was an attempt at sui
eide through jealousy of an actress with
whom he was in love.
Twelve years ago, when Reil's Cana
dian rebels plunged the Dominion into
war, Mr.. Mitchell was playing with
Kate Claxton at Winnipeg. Learning
that the Canadians were in need Of
scouts and being familiar with frontier
life, Mitchell left Miss Claxton's COM
pany and enlisted. In the 20 days Of the
rebellion he was in every engagement
and distinguished himself by dauntless
bravery. In July of 1896 he was engag-
eel as business manager of the Garrick
theater by Richard Mansfield. Prior to
that he had been member of Mrs Pot
ter's company and had travelled nearly
all over tho globe. e.--Phiiadelphia Press.
