SCIENCE NOTES.

DR.. A. D. Waller states in a recent
paper, chat he is able to tell whether
a bean is alive by it's peculiar response
to electric stimulus. If dead it fails
to respond. His method of distin-
gushing is to place the bean between
pair of moist electrodes and sending
an electric discharge through the
same After the impulse the bean
electrodes are connected to a sensi-
tive galvanometer, and if the bean is
alive it will give a relatively strong
discharge, usually in the direction of
the stimulus. Sometimes the test kills
the bean, but sometimes it may be
made to grow. The electric current
from the bean may gradually diminish
during half an hour after a sudden
rise at the beginning. This experiment
gives an opportunity to approach the
problem of the relation of life and eiec-
tricity from a new standpoint. The
peculiar manifestations and the vari-
GUS forms of energy into which cleo
tricity can be transformed have given
the hope that there may be a close
relationship between this subtle ener-
gy and life force
Freezing in Plants.
In Science J. B. Dandeno finds that
at the maximum density of water the
water in the cell of plant begins to
expand while the cell wall continues
to contract as cooling goes on. This

intercellular spaces. When the freez-
ing point is reached the water in the
intercullular spaces freezes first be-
cause less dense than the contents
of the cell. The Capitalization out
side the cell gives off latent heat which
tends to keep the cell contents from
freezing for a considerable time. FL
nally also the cell contents may be
frozen, but only after nearly all the

Was Ii Pat Grove?

Liveryman Geo. Buck informs us that
a man arrived in town Tuesday even
ing about ten o'clock, comiag here with
alivery team and driver from Manning,
and. after taking lunch was driven to
Wall Lake by Mr.. Buck, where an.
other lunch was partaken of and the
liveryman of Wall Lake took him to
Ida Grove. He did not make his BUSH
ness known, but seemed to know sew
eral people hereabout, also the lay of
the country. He seemed to have plenty
of money and said he wanted to get to
Sioux City the next morning and to
land in Kansas City by Wednesday
night. Mr.. Buck also says, that he
carried two loaded revolvers, and seem
ed to act as though he did not want to
let any one get a good look at his face.
He describes him as man Of about five
feet ten inches in height, dark stubby
mustache and weighs about 165 pounds.
lnasmuch as it is reported that Pat
Grove was seen in this neighborhood
within the past three weeks, and at one
time a resident here, would naturally
lead one to believe that it was the orr.
ginal Pat. If not, who was it,and why

After a brief trial on Saturday after
noon, Chas. Meyers was held TO the
grand jury by justice McLennan and
his bond fixed at $1,000. The defend
ant did not 60 on the stand himself and
no evidence was admitted save that of
the prosecution. Prof and Mrs. Saw
age testified to hearing the sound OF
breaking glass and hasteningsfrom the
house saw the defendant standing by
the Voss residence in close proximity
to the broken pane. Mr.. Savage testi-
fed that Meyers fastened to make his
departure. Later upon being arrested
Meyers is said to have told conflicting
stories as to the reason of his being in
the vicinity of the house and as to the
cause of the breaking of the window.
The justice deemed the evidence suffic-
lent to hold the defendant who. as we
have previously stated, is said not to
be novice in such matters and who
was already acquainted with the in
terror OF our county jail and other pen
al institutions.
