A Big Thing for Copper.

William A. Guersney, the discoverer of method to temper copper, is al present one of the happiest men in the country, believing, as he does, that he will eventually become wealthy man as result of years of xperimenting. He recently visited Washington, D. C., where he submitted samples of tenn pered copper to the examination of ex- perts at the request of Secretary of War Root. The samples taken to | Washington were three chisels. Mir. Guersney is very reticent concernin. |. his trip to the national capital and his interview with Secretary Root, but he makes no effort to conceal the fact that the attachees of the War Office were greatly astonished at the proof of his claims. Tests resulted in establishing that the copper chisels carried much finer edges than those made of steel. The copper chisels are also more dur able, having been driven into iron submitted to the same test by Govern ment experts were dulled. The copper tools are also lighter and never rust. The tests of the copper chisels did not fully satisfy Secretary Root and his subordinates as to the value of Nlr. Guersney's discovery, and he was in structed to return to Williamsport and temper several copper plates in order to ascertain their resistance to bullets fired from rifles. Mir. Guersney has ex- perimented as requested and has pre- pared several plates. Before he takes them to Washington Mir. Guernsey will give q public exhibition at his home. The time fixed is next Sunday afternoon. It is likely that several government representatives will be present. The thinnest plate will be a quarter of an inch thick and the thick est one an inch. A Krag-Jorgensen rifle will be used. Besides, any marks man will be allowed to shoot at any of the plates with any rifle chosen. Guersney says: The plates will not be feased.'

strike small punches Of copper; soon
 the bun ches began to appear with
 more frequency, and the ore to inn
 prove in character. At 530 feet the
 ore was high grade copper, sulphide
 ore. and there was width to the ore
 body. At present the tunDel is in $50
 feet and the ore is found in large
 quantities. The property is spoken of
 by mining men here in Jerome as a sure winner. Stock cannot be pur- chased from local holders for less than
 par value. The tunnel is being pushed as fast as steel and powder, in the
 hands of expert miners can push it, Jerome Reporter.
 Speaking of the situation of the Tombstone mines and the work of re- opening them, the ProspectOr says: The shaft has attained depth of about 450 feet, and is being sunk as rapidly as three eight-hour shifts can make their way to the coveted goal the 600-foOt level, where water will be encountered and the ore bo6y pene- trated. When the water shall have been reached stations will be cut at in- tervals of 100 feet and system of pumps installed, after which the mine may be said to have been opened up; a systematic exploitation will be inau- gurated aud a large force Of men em- ployed. The boiler, a mammoth piece of machinery of 800 horse power, and weighing 45, ,000 pounds, has been or dered aud will be on the grounds in the near future. The pumps that have been especially constructed for this work, two in number, have a capacity of 1,700 gallons per minute; there are two station pumps, of a capacity of $50 gallons per minute each, and five sink ing pumps of a normal capacity of 600 gallons per minute, with the capability of being pushed up to ,000 gallons per minute. The station pump is triple condensing, and is the most powerful yet brought into this district.

A big, good natured farmer was
awaiting the suburban train, accom-
panied by a handsome Gordon setter.
Two sons of Britain stood near him.
The dog strayed away from his owner,
who was reading a newspaper.
"Heyp' called the farmer. Come
here, Locksmith," and the dog imme-
dlately ran to his feet.
One Of the Englishmen approached
the farmer.
May I ask" he said, what you

"Locksmith," said the farmer.
"And why. prayY
Because every time / kick him ne

There was a general laugh, In which

When he returned to his companion,
he remarked:
Most extraordinary name that man

tn. weight Of Ice.

The iceman and the goldman are
often suspected of giving short weights
maybe oftener suspected than guilty;
maybe oftener guilty than suspected.
The means of testing the weight or
from ten to thirty pounds Of Ice are
not always at hand in the house, but
close estimate of the weight cah be
reached by multiplying together the
length, breadth and thickness Of the
block In inches and dividing the prod
uct by thirty. This will give very
closely the weight In pounds. Thus. II
a block Of ice is 10 by 10 by 0, the prod
uct is 900. and this divided by thirty
gives thirty pounds as the correct
weight. A block 10 by 10 by @ weighs
twenty pounds. This simple method
can be easily applied, and 1t may serve
to remove unjust suspicion or to detect
short weights.

( DR. George Fordyce. the celebrated
snatomist and lecturer on chemistry,
used to eat one meal DAY and one
meal only, but It was mighty one,
washed down with liberal drafts or
wine and beer. At o'clock every DAY
he used TO enter a certain chophouse
and take his seat at q table always re-
served for him. A silver tankard con-
tanning a quart Of strong ale' luh
bottle Of port and a quarter OF pint OF
brandy were placed before him imme-
diately. n9f) Pr i-
The moment the walter announced
the doctors arrival the cook put q
pound and half Of rump steak on the
fire. and to while away the time until
the steak should be properly broiied
the waiter brought the doctor some
tempting morsel like broiled chicken
or q plate Of fish. When he had eaten
this. DR.. Fordyce drank half OF his
brandy and then began on his steak.
While eating the steak he drank the
tankard Of ale and after that the rest
of the brandy. The walter then IN
corked the bottle Of port. and the doc
tor proceeded slowly to enjoy 1t until It
was all gone. He spent an hour and a
half daily at his one meal and after II
returned home to give his lectures on
chemistry which are still quoted as
classics of that science. He ate nothing
else until the next day. when he re-
turned at the same hour to the same
chophouse for the same sort Of a meal
DR.. Fordyce lived to be sixty-six years
old and kept up his one meal custom to
the last. fff

In cold countries where snow pre-
walls during long winter many Of the
animals change the hue Of their coats
to a white tint. The arctic bear and
fox are white throughout the year.
The northern hare is brown in summer
and white In winter. The weasel Is
especially curious. 1t retains its brown
coat until the first snow appears and
then whitens in few hours.
