Prince Violates Court Etiquette.

Prince Henry, the kaisers brother,
even did not come out Of all the re-
jolcings in his honor at Berlin with
out trespassing on the emperor's do
main. When the kaiser and he were
driving down Inter den Linden shouts
of Long live Prince Henry" were
heard on all sides. William II. keen
ly felt the oversight. Matters were
not improved when the brother, quite
beside himself with Joy at this enthusi-
astic reception in his homeland. re-
moved his headpiece and waved it
Justify in the air. Now. according to
strict Hohenzollern etiquette. 1t is
against all rules and regulations for
any German prince to salute when
driving with the emperor. Prince
Henry forgot all about this on the spur
OF the moment BY his brothers COM
mand he was reminded Of 1t by the
grand master Of ceremonies some.hat
later.

II May Be Murder.

At the Reading iron works at
Danville, Saturday evening, a slight
fire started near the roof of the mill
and Owen McCairey, the night
watchman, went up to extinguish it.
While he was thus engaged Albert
Yost, another employe, commenced
to "guy" and greatly incensed the
watchman. When the latter came
down he, told Yost that he was La
able to arrest for his action, where
upon Iost picked up pair of large
iron tongs and dealt McCafrey Il
heavy blow on the forehead. The
latter fell, unconscious and is still in
a serious nondition.

Was Dismissed.

Rev. u. II. Shields, member of
the Central Pennsylvania Conference
of the Methodist church, recently
a chaplain in the regular army, but
who was dismissed from the service
for drunkenness, was picked upupon
Il San Francisco wharf Tuesday in Il
dying condition and was conveyed
TO the city hospital, where he now
lies in precarious condition. 1t is
evident that want, starvation and
excess have reduced the former army
chaplain to the physical wreck he
now is. Without friends or money
enough with which to secure meal,
exposed to the cold rains and winds
and but thinly clad, the wretched
man had dragged himself about the
streets of San Francisco for the last
three days, and finally collapsed
through sheer exhaustion. Hispulse
was very weak when taken to the
hospital, and the physicians gave it
as their opinion that he might net
survive.

Monster Telephone Line.

An effort is being made to com
bine all the local telephone lines in
the Eastern States. The Interstate
Telephone and Telegraph Company
has been organized with a capital OF
S2,000,000 to accomplish This pur-
pose. The Shamokin Valley Tele-
phone Company has gone into the
combination.
The Penn Telephone Companyi,as
not yet joined the combination, but
as they have aproposition on several
different plans to join the Interstate
Company, it is probable that at their
meeting this wednesday, evening
they will make some definite ar
rangements.
We are assured that the combina-
ton will in no wise curtaiI the priv
ileges of present subscribers. In
addition long distance service is to
be given at about One-half the rates
OF the Bell Company. If the COM
bination is effected, the long distance
service will be quite a convenience
to Snyder county subscribers.

1t is expected that there will be a
division encampment ofthe National
Guard this year, although the mill
tary authorities have not definitely
settled the question. The number
Of men in camp will be larger than
ever before in the history of the
Guard, owing to the fact that not all
of the emergency commands organ
lied for the second National Guard
have been mustered out. 1t will
take another year to reduce the mi
litia of the State to the strength con-
templated by the military authorities.

THE HUMAN BODY.
Many Odd Facts Which are
not Generally Known.


Human beings are of all sizes.
but the tall man is less common than
the short; only one man in 20S ex-
ceeds the height OF six feet. For
every foot Of stature a man should
weigh from twcntN-siX to- twenty
eight pounds, Il proportion that is
not the lot OF all in these hurrying,
scurrying days.
An average sized man weighs l40
pounds;a woman l25 pounds. Cur
lonsl Y enough, the mean weight and
height OF lunatics are below those of
sane people. Another unexpected
thing in thisrcspcct is that a negro's
skeleton weighs more than that of
an EngliShman.
The vitali1lngpoworis the blood,
Il drop CT which takes but twenty.
two seconds to go the round of the
body. There passes through the
hcarton in every three minutes an
amount of this precious fluid equal
to all that is contained in the body.
The mileage of the blood circula-
ton reveals some astonishing and
undrcamcd OF truths. 1t is estimate
ed that, assuming the average speed
of the heart to be sixty-nine beats. a
minute, the blood travels 2O7 yards
in sixty seconds; in other words,
seven miles an hour, 1863 a day, or
1920 a year.
fla man of eighty-lour could
have one single blood corpuscle
floating in his blood all his life, 1T
would have traversed in that peril a
no less than $3.50, sos miles. A4 /
The average weight Of the l,sal
of an adult male is three pounds
eight ounces, of a female, twopounds
four ounces. The woman's brain
begins to decline in weight after the
age of thirty, the mans not until
ten years later. According to high
authorities, with their branches and
minute ramifications connecting with
the brain, exceed 100000 in
number.
The palm of the hands and the
soles of the feet are composed OF
cushions OF tat, in order that sudden
jolts and violent blows NAV be sue
cesstulIy resisted, and no injury done
to the muscles and bones underneath.
The muscles Of which the tongue
mnnopolizes eleven, and the bones of
the human structure in combination
are capable Of more than 1900
motions.
The teaching Of experience indi-
Gates that accidents are more likely
to occur to the right leg and arm
than to the left. Further evidence
of this fact is supplied by the max
ers ofartificial limbs; they dispose of
many more appendages to the right
side Of the body than to the other.
Statistics show that in fifty-four
cases out of hundred the left leg is
is stronger than the right.
fla man could move his legs pro-
portionally as fast as an ant, he
would travel not far short of eight
hundred miles an hour.
