MICE HAVE A STANDING IN LAW
They Figured in Recent Contest Over
 Land Owuersffp,

From the Spokane Review: The .land-contest case in which a family of mice played 9 prominent part has been decided on the appeal to Binger Hermann, commissioner Of the gen eral land office at Washington The rodents are not mentioned in the deci- sion, but the man whom it was claimed allowed the mice to establish a resi- dence ia his bed is allowed to retain possession of his homestead, the rul= ing of the local land office being re- Yersed and the contest dismissed 4 peculiar feature of the case is that when tfe family cf mice was first men toned Il was tended that their presence in the bed of the entFyman stead, and tba local land office appar- ently took the same view of the mat ter. But when the decision was ap. pealed from it was set up that the presence of the mice was an argument in favor of the honesteader. Fred o. Grutt was the entryman, having taken ID homestead near Davenport three years ago. Last August John OiNefl instituted a contest to the homestead entry, alleging that Grutt had aban- doned the claim, did not keep up a continuous residence thereon, and that the only inhabitants of the shanty on the ranch were family of mice After hearing the case the registrar and receiver decided that Grutt's en- try should be eanceled. From this de- cision Grntt had sixty days in which to file an appeal to the commissioner at Washington. The appeal was filed by Leo Walton, attorney for Grutt. In the appeal the mice family was re- ferred to as follows: If there were any mice in this entryman's bed dur ing the early part of September, 1898, it plainly shows that the entryman did have bed on the land at the time"

HAIR PLANTING.
Successful Experiments of Turkish
 Physician.


 A Turkish physician has been ex- pgrimenting successfully on the trans planting of hairs one by one to bald parts of the scalp. His results seem to show that there is no impossibility in the complete renewal of lost head of hair by this means. The physician, Dr. Menahem Hodara, according to foreign paper, tried his experiments in the case of disease that had re- moved part of his patients hair. His plan was to scarify the bare surface and to implant thereon hairs removed from other parts of the patients head. The hairs used for the purpose were trimmed with scissors at each end. Some four weeks after implantation a certain number of the hairs were found to have taken root, and in no long time a goodly new crop was pro. duced. Encouraged by these results. Dr. Hodara has since applied the method in other cases of badness fol- lowing favus, and he thinks himself justified in stating that 'fclinieally I4Sic Ndu pS uO UouUl do U lu1o 4Sly furious faet-that small bundles of hair stems cut with scissors and im planted in the incisiens made with the scarifer can take root and grow. form ing in time long and visible hairs. Gy microscopic examination he has satisfied himself that after some weeks a real new bulb forms at the lower end of the implanted hair. Dr. Hoda- ra's results are interesting in them selves, and still more in the promise which they appear to offer of further results, undreamed of, or at any rate unmentioned. by the ingenious experi- menter. Why, asks the New York Herald. should not the same treatment be applied in cases of ordinary bald ness? Many bald men would gladly submit to have their sealps plowed and afterward sown with new hairs if there was a reasonable hope of even moderate harvest.

British Tars Row Against Malays.

In the harbor at Port Elizabeth, Cape Colony, the other day, an interesting boat race was held. crew of British bluejackets being pitted against some Malay fishermen. The five seamen who represented the British navy were se- lected from the crew of the cruiser Doris, the flagship of Rear-Admiral Sir Robert H. Harris, one of the smartest admirals of the navy, and now in com- mand of the Cape of Good Hope and West Coast of Africa squadron. If the seamen thought they were going to have a walkover they were greatly mistaken. The Malays gave them a good race: sometimes the naval men led, and then again the Malays would overtake them Toward the finish, however, the seamen obtained tac- tieal advantage and managed to win with about dozen lengths to spare.

 the Cemetery Worker.
 The gravediggers in the different burying grounds have their own phil 1osophy of life. One of them who has been in the business nearly 25 years, and who takes an exceedingly cheerful view of life notwithstanding his occupation, said that when he first went into it he felt "kind of shaky, '' but that now he would as soon dig a grave as do anything else, says the Baltimore Sun. i've seen some mighty queer things in my time," he said. i've seer people-mourners, mean catch sight ef name on the card tied on to some flower piece and then they have gone straight to work to tear up the whole thing. I'll tell you another thing I've noticed When a woman comes along and makes a big fuss at her husbands funeral and says, I can't live without himi' know that in a few weeks time I'll see her out here leaning on some young fellows arm. It's never failed. It's happened every time But the peeple-women and men toe-who don't take on a lot, but just keep still and sometimes don't even shed tear, that's the kind that grieves. You don't see that kind mar rying again so soon"

BIRD MOTION.
Things That Have Been Found Out by
 the Airship inyen ors.

In flight the body is moved forward
 by the resistance of the air to the strokes of the wings. The reason why the start is the most laborious part of the process IS thus explained by M. Marcy, the great authority Of all forms of animal locomotion: When the bird is not yet in motion, the air struck by it's wings first of all presents a resistance due to it's inertia, then be- gins to move, and flies below the wing
 without affording any support. When the bird is at full speed, on the con- trary, it's wings are supported each succeeding moment by new columns Of air, each one offering the initial re- sistance due to it's inertia The sum of these resistanees presents to the winds a much frmer basis. The in crease of the resistance of the air diminishes the labors of the bird. In calm air seagull at it's swiftest ex- bends scarcely a fifth Of the labor which 1t had to put forth at the be- ginning of it's flight The bird which flies against the wind is in still better conditions, fresh masses of air con- tfnua1ly presenting themselves to it's wings. The start is, therefore, the most 1aborious phase of flight. Hence birds employ all kinds of artifices to acquire motion before Tapping their wings. Some run along the ground be- fore darting into the air, others jump rapidly in the direction in which they wish to fly. Others, again, let them selves drop from height with ex- tended wings All turn their bills to the wind at the moment of starting"

Fearfu. Encounter with p Rattlesnake.
 Miss Evaline Quick of Lackawaxen, Pike county, Pa, had a fearful enceun- ter with monster rattlesnake at her home near the village. She was lying in hammock on the lawn reading Q book, when rustling among the, leaves aroused her, and she was terror strick- en to see crouching and ready to spring, a huge rattlesnake Ere she could call assistance the reptile had bounded into the hammock and fast ened it's fangs in the folds of her skirt. With shriek Miss Quick sprang from the hammock. when the snake loosened it's hold. Securing club, the young lady returned and killed the snake, which was nearly five feet in length and had eleven rattles.

FAMOUS OLD CLOCK.
That for 51o Years Has Regulated tb.
 City of Rouen.

Rouen, one of the principal cities of France, and the great seat of it's cotton. manufacture, possesses the oldest pub-s lie clock in the world. The great Rouen clock has held it's place in that city for 510 years and is the pride of it's citizens. Placed in 1889, it has been running without interruption from that day to this, requiring nothing except cleaning and few trifing repairs of its accessory parts. The great clock had so accustomed the citizens of Rouen to look upon its exactitude as matter of course, that when, in 1572, the breaking of a wire prevented it's sounding o'clock one morning. the population was in state of consterna- tion. The magistrates summoned the custodian--Guillaume Petit-and re- monstrated gravely with him. Until TIP the great clock had no pendulum. For 323 years it had no other regulator than a sfoliot, an apparatus unknown to the majority of modern cloekmak.s CTS. The pendulum in clockwork was introduced in 1859, but so we'll satis- fed were the people of Rouen with the time-keeping qualities of their famous old clock that 5 years were allowed te pass before a pendulum was subsfy ssuted for the "foliot.e Equipped with this new apparatus 1t has continued to this day to strike the hours and chime the quarters.

OIL USED As FUEL ON SHIPS
Russian, Italian and German Nasies E1-
 perimenting with IL


 The enormous annual draw on our coal supply is already somewhat les sened by the use of liquid fuel. all though the actual effect is. of course. inappreeiable. Sir Marcus Samuel, in q recent paper before the Society Of Arts, gave an interesting account Of the present position of liquid fuel in our own and foreign countries. h England oil as fuel is in use on the Great Eastern railway, and we believe the results have proved satisfactory. 1t has also been found more or less in use in the Russian, German and Italian navies and one or two foreign railways. We are told that when the old fields of Dutch Borneo were Srst opened Up the oil WAS not allowed to be carried in bulk through the Suez canal. and there was not single port at which obstacles were not placed in the way of it's introduction. Now yes esls carrying $500 tons, and capable of disehargfng over 500 tons of oil per hour pass through the canal regularly The impediments placed ia the way of it's discharge have been done away with, as experience has shown that there is no real danger. Several ad yantages are claimed for the use of this body as fuel to replace coal. tEe chief being the convenience Of storage. the reduction of labor in storing and rapidity of discharge The alternate contraction and expansion of the fire bars and steam tubes, unavoidable when coal is used as the fuel, is said to be altogether stopped, but against this has to be placed a risk Of over heating.-London Chronicle.

Dogs Battle with q Cactus.

Otto Kleemann, who lives on Bel mont street. recently acquired q leaat tiful cactus, which he established ins his household. unmindful of the fact that his dog held the opinion that his master should have no other pets be- fore him. Now he has no cactus and the dejzste semblance of a dog. The little animal espied the plant soon after it's arrival, and issued challenge. Tn default of acceptance, he gave battle, but retired at the first shock to recon sider The enemy had more teeth than a battalion of bull terriers. and all of them were newly sharpened. He was no quitter, however, and with rising an- ger he renewed the attack. This time his opponent came down, landing on him heavily. and with the touch of a barb-wire fence. The two rolled over and over in death embrace, and the cactus was finally vanquished, torn in- to shreds and scattered about the room. But it was g costly victory. The con- queror is punctured in more places than his owner can count He may live to fight another day, but it will not be with cactus.-Oregon

2 How to Make a r,ernerx.

An unslghtly or dark corner Of a back yard or garden may, without much diffleulty, be converted into quite an attractive spot by the construction of a fernery. This can be done by re- moving the flags, if any, rearing them on edge as a kind of border line, filling in behind with good garden soil, if leaf mold and sandy peat are not ob- tainable for mixing it. See that there is plenty of drainage by placing a thick layer of broken stones or bricks at the bottom, then add the soil in the shape of gently sloping bank, stud ding it with rough stones (the rougher the better) from a sandstone quarry. In gathering wild ferns do not attempt to bring home large specimens. Be content with small plants with plenty of root They will make fair show in themselves if properly attended to.
