Records That Made n Man who Ate

From the New Orleans Picayune.
A young man was sitting on a stool in
an oyster bar last night and had just fin
ished his fourth dozen. He drew a gratified
sigh and looked at the barricade of empty
shells with a mixture of pride and appre-
citation. Gee whizr he exclaimed that
must be pretty near a record, amt it?"
The opener smiled scornfully and went on
washing his knife. Such a foolish asser-
ton did not call for reply. "Wen," said
the young man, a trifie chopfallen, lit S

most you ever knew anybody to eat?''
'Sraightaway, or heats?" inquired the
opener. with the air of one who weighs
his words. "Ohl right al one time; hand

THE MENACING COMET.
FaIb's Prediction That 1t VIII Strike
the Earth Tomorrow.
From the Fortnightly Review.

From the Fortnightly Review.
In view of the interest awakened in the
subject of a possible rencontre between
the earth and Temples comet it may be
well to consider how far Prof. Falb is
justified in making his much talked-of pre-
diction, namely, that on Nov. 10, 1S99 the
comet will come into collision with our
planet. In lecture delivered subsequent
ly in Berlin he explained that his proph-
ecy was TO be regarded merely as an an
nouncement of the fact that on the date
mentioned, between the hours of and 3
in the morning, Temples comet will be
due at a point in the earth's annual path,
where the earth also will arrive at the
same time, hence he predicted the colli-
sion. He feels pretty sure, though, that
the material of which the comet is COM
posed is so light that the inhabitants of
this neither world may confidently expect
to come out of the tourney scatheless:
unless, indeed, the comets atmosphere
should prove to be of a noxious charac-
ter and overwhelm US with a torrent of
carbonic gas.
From the Greenwich observatory, how
ever, comes the reassuring intelligence
that 1.-THE period of this comet is not
known with sufficient accuracy to justify
such (Falb's) an announcement" that
1.-The best determinations of the period do
not indicate a collision" Calculation indi-
Gates the middle of March as the time of
its nearest approach to the sun--the peri
hellon. OF Temples comet nothing of gen.
eral interest is known beyond the fact of
its being closely associated with a stream
of meteors known as the Leonids.

from Forest and Stream.
Reading 'Fish-Fin Poisoning" by Wall
Kau-Mah in the July Woodcraft maya
zine, recalls to me that the recipes for
poisoning by fish fin, insect bites, etc. are
so many and varied, and the claims mais
by those who advise them so favorable, all
getting equally good results, that one must
conclude that none are specially valuable.
There is simple, scientific antidote for all
these poisons, namely radiated heat. The
early application of radiated heat has been
long time known as an effective anti
dote to bites of snakes, insects, and 10
punctured wounds as from fish fins and
sharp inanlmate bodies. l cannot recall
reading this fact anywhere, yet I think
that it is well known, and like Wau-Kau-
Nah, l mention it for the benefit of the
readers of Forest and Stream. Even
those who are "chalned to business" may
use it, as 1t is good for spider bites. Or.
Constance Herring, a noted scientist who
died in Philadelphia, in 1880 aged 81 years
was the first person know who had used
radiated heat to antidote the poison OF a
snake bite. This he did In his own per-
son, and successfully antidoted the virus
of one of the most poisonous snakes OIL
South America, the Lachesis trigonecep-
halus. 1t seems strange that although
the fact that radiated heat is so generally
known to be an antidote to all kinds OF
virus, 1t is so seldom used as such. Those
who hunt and fish usually have the means
at hand to apply 1t. I have used lighted
cigar, a bunch of waste, a pine torch, the
flame of gasoline lamp, but best OF all
the glowing embers of the camp hres

EMERALD CRAZE.
Colombia just Recovering From an
UnexpIainabIe Boom in the Gems.


UnexDIainabIe Boom in the Gems.
From the Baltimore sun.
Until very recently emeralds were drug
in the market Of Bogota One who desired
to buy them had only to wait ana have
them brought to him. The famous Muzo
mine, which has produced emeralds of
great value and in large quantities, lies
near Bogota, and the people Of that city
have long been familiar with its products.
This mine is operated by a French COM
pany which insists that for the past year
or so it has found almost no emeralds.
However, from this source or from others
crude emeralds have continued 10 come
into Bogota. OF the cut stones, set and
unset, there has been an abundance in the
market. Hard times have compelled many
persons to offer for sale their highly priced
helrlooms, and these have been obtainable
as a rule at very low prices.
Recently an emerald craze seized upon
Bogota. The jewelry stores and all other
establishments where emeralds are dealt
In We're besieged by persons who wished to
buy and By Others who wished to SELL
and for the same reason, men and women
crowded the streets, standing In the road
way as well as on the sidewalk some dis
playing their emeralds and others their
money. A jewelry establishment located
on the most prominent corner In Bogota
was compelled to ask the police to drive
the crowd away.
AS the news spread outside of Bogota
emerald owners began to rush in. This
sweled the throng and sent the fever up
several degrees. Sales were made right and
left at prices hitherto unheard Of. Per-
sons who had not thought of selling,
tempted by the wild rush to buy, brought
out their emeralds and began trading. No
body could explain the real cause of the
excitement and many are now beginning
to realize that it was without real cause.
After five days the fever reached It's
hight and has since been declining While
it lasted emeralds sold. on a gold basis
at about three times their value just be-
fore the excitement began. 1t is estimat-
cd that about 100000 pesos have changed
hands as the result of the Juror.
The crowd has almost disappeared from
the streets and many buyers who went I'm
on the hoodtide find themselves with en-
eralds that will not bring the price they
paid for them. Others. also inexperienced
have more or less excellent limitations as
souvenirs of this extraordinary movement.
1t does not appear that the expert deal
ers have bought so extravagantly as the
general public and yet it is believed that
some Of these have far overreached them
selves.
The only approach to an explanation for
this craze is that a Bogota dealer who
went to Paris recently, on his return to
this city began to buy emeralds at higher
prices than had been ruling in the market.
This seems TO have started it. Some of
the experts says that this dealer drew out
of the market long before prices reached
their hight and that he did so because
ameralds were selling in Bogota for more
than they would bring In Europe.
