sharp in order to prevent disaster

tried to pass on the other side of
Hezekiah. This also was failure, for
the very devil seemed to get into that

steam on both sides, while the mare
tried first to sit down and then to stand
on her head.
BY this time the excitement was
intense, and there were cries of. Go
on, 81! Go on! Now's your chance!"
But 81 had begun to see that there was
trouble ahead for him. The track was
not wide, and Hezekiah kept the mid
die of it. There was room to pass on
either side, but very little more room
than was necessary, and very slight
collision with the fence would wreck
the ancient sulky. Hence 81 pulled up
and talked soothingly to the mare be-

mare was not in mood to be readily
soothed. On every side of her there
were shouts and laughter, and from

Noiseless Powder.

The success Of smokeless powder in
modern warfare has been such as to
prompt man of an inventive turn of
mind to manufacture powder which
is said to be also noiseless. 1t is the
invention of German workman in
this country. He has already given
private exhibition of the practicability
OF his discovery with considerable sue
cess. A shell loaded with his powder
was fired at target fifty yards away,
and the only sound indicating the ex-
plosion was the falling of the plunger
OF the she'll. Bohnengal, which is the
name of the inventor, has not, it is
said, yet sold the secret of the process,
but is still in treaty with different gov
ernments for it's purchase.

judge. 'In this court people die, not

people who use those terms seem to

Photographed Star. Vanish.

DR.. Isaac Roberts, whose beautiful
photographs Of nebulae and star clus-
tiers are we'll known. gives somewhat
startling account Of the manner in
which the images Of faint stars and
nebulae disappear from the photo
graphic plates. On one of his plates,
in 1886, he counted 403 stars; the same
plate in 1895 showed only 272' stars,
the images Of 131 having entirely dis
appeared. This leads to the sugges-
ton that celestial photographs, in or
der to be Of permanent value. should
be Immediately reproduced by some
process yielding pictures not subject tc
change.

Three Kinds of Ice.

A German physicist, G.. Tammann,
has recently discovered some hitherto
unnoted facts concerning ice and the
freezing point of water. He finds that
not only does the freezing point vary
With the pressure, but that three diff
ferent kinds Of ice can be produced,
each possessing its own crystalline
structure. Thus water may now be
said to have five known forms-namely
water vapor, water as liquid, ordi-
nary ice. called by Tammann ice l..
ice in Its second form. or ice H.. and
ice in its third form, denominated as
ice III. Some non-scientific people
would, in hot weather. add a sixth
form generally known as ice-cream.

Snake Hunters In Florida.

Snake Hunters In Florida.
Most Of the snakes seen In circus
and dime museum shows come from
South America and Florida" said a
dealer in reptiles to Washington Star
writer. I'm Florida the colored folks
make the best snake hunters, and their
method Of catching the reptiles is
peculiar and interesting. The hunt
ing parties usually consist Of from
three to four men. One Of them car
ries long pole, having a forked or
bent head and strong slip moose at
the end. The moose is put over the
snakes head with the aid of the pole.
The darkies then draw the moose tight
on the snakes neck. Then the cord
is passed through the inside and bot
tom of a canvas bag and the snakes
head is pulled up tight to the bottom
of the bag. The snake will now begin
coiling himself up to get purchase to
pull the cord of. AS he does so the
hunters raise the mouth of the bag and
twist it around until the snake is
twisted up into circle at the bottom.
Then the bag is tied around close down
to the snake and the main cord is cut
close to the bottom Of the sack, SO that
when the. snake extends it's head it
will throw off the Moose from its neck.
The snake can't throw its head far
enough back to strike. and it may,
when thus captured, be carried with
perfect safety for any distance with
only the thickness of the bag between
it and the hunter"
