A recc1lar accIdenn

One of the most peculiar accidents ever heard of happened to a colored man near Red Deer, Va, few days ago. Ed Jones took his gun and set out for day of sport. He was not looking for large game, but he had not been in the woods long before he saw tn immense deer coming at tre- mendous rate of speed immediately to- ward him. He at once fell upon his knees, preparatory to a shot, and when the deer was within twenty feet of him fired and missed his aim. The deer had acquired such tremendous mo- mentum that it could not check itself, and with the next leap landed upon the hunter. It knocked him down and Bruised hin badly upon the breast with one hind foot, the other going into the negro's mouth, knocking out number of his teeth, tearing a part of his gums away, and passing dowr his throat. The whole thing was over iii an instant, but when the darkeJ came to tae deer was gone.

GREAT SALT LAKE,
No Living Thing in It and No Danger
 of Being Drowned.


 The water of the Great Salt lake. Otah, is clear and transparent, with a bottom Of fine white sand and a mar gin of incT9sted salt. It is one of the purest and most concentrated primes in the whole world. Its waters give sus tenance to no living thing; there is not the smallest insect or worm ta irighten the most timid bather, and the bathing is the most perfect sea oathfng In the whole of North Aneri- a or in Europe No l,uman body can sink in it. One may actually walk the water nc matter how deep it is. Your body will persis,tently rise up, tha shoulders above the surface, or you nay even sit down :n it. It's wonder sul buoyaGcy must be experienced to ha r,aliZed. No knowledge of swim .niEg is necessary; one may enter the ake without the slightest fear; all you have to do is to lie down and float. But 10 swim in it, that is an~ other thing! When your hands are put under the water to take stroke. your feet, like Banquo's ghost, will not go down. It is impossible to keep more than one end of your body under water at iime. You cannot swim, but if yeV are a man you can float on your back, with your arms crossed under yoIr head, and smoke your pipe or cigGf with as much ease as if in your own room. The water is so salt 'l-at it cannot be swallowed without great danger of strangulatioE; a small, drop in the eye, too, gives much pain. But, in spite of all the dangers, bath- Ing in the Great Salt lake is refreshing and invigorating, notwithstanding that the body must he rebathed in fresh @ater afterward to remove the i'm. n+ense quantity of salt which adheres to the skin. It is hard work to make any headway, against the smallest waves. Nearly half million people Dathe in the Great Salt lake ever, year; they come from all over the world, and tourists are beginning to realize that Salt Lake City and the Magnificent surroundings present the greatest scope of novelty, and is des tined to be leading watering place.
 NEW USE FOR COAL DUST.

NEW USE FOR COAL DUST.
Somebody Appars ntly Selling It Wldol5
 in Placo of Antimons.

A rural chemist has accidentally dis covered a curious case of adulteration. or, more accurately, ot substitution in the matt:r of a drug commonly sold in pharmacies, rural and urban. The drug is the tri-sglphide of antimony, commonly known as black antimony The chemist in analyzing patent remedy discovered that the Ingredients Leafly corresponded with those in formula furnished by the Agricultural department but that coal dust had been substituted for black antimony. Struck with this discovery, the chemist obtained twelve samples of black anti mony, most of them from druggists in his own neighborhood, but one from New York, of these, only one was really black antimony; the others were fcal dust, coal dust and chalk or coal aust and sand. There is DO reason to suppose that the druggists knew of the substitution, for thero would be little profit in the deception unless it were praeticed on large scale; but 1t seems plain that some manufacturing chemist is selling a worthless substi- tute for black antimony. Indeed the substitute may be seat out from more than one factory, fl while the dozen samples tested came from the eastern coast, the remedy in which the sub- stitution vas originally detected came from the west. The New York drug gist who sold a sample of the substl- ute does business in a fashionable quarter where there is considerable demand for black antimony on the part of grooms and cGachmen, who use i, in the preparation of condition pow ders for horses. I've other druggists In the same neighborhood do not keep black antimony. One of them keeps what is known as red antimony, which is chemically identically with black antimony though different in appear acce. Red antimony is product of chemical precipitation, while black Antimony Is natural product found in many parts of Europe. in Nova Scotia Qld Nevada.

Willie Cochran, years old, Of 263 Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn, in saving his little S-year-old sister Cora from being run oyer by trolley car, was himself struck and received injuries which cost him his life. The small hero, with his mother and sister was at grocery store in Myrtle avenue, near Raymond street, when the little girl, seeing an aunt on the other side of the avenue, started to run over to her, needless o1 an onconling trolley car.

The fender struck him, arG he was hurled violently into the gut ter. An ambulance was summoned from the Brooklyn City hospital, and OF examination it was found that the boy was suffering from severe lacera- ton of the left leg, and from internal injuries from which he died shortly after reaching the hospital.

The Scent Cure.

Interesting experiments with .he odors of herbs have from time to time been made, and it las been found that many species of microbes are easily destroyed by various smells The odor of cloves has been Known tc destroy microbes in thirty five minutes; cinnamon will kill some species in thirty-five minutes; thyme in thirty-fve. In forty-five minutes common wild yerbena is found effective, while the odor of mint has destroyed various forms of microbes @ Stttyfve minutes, and it is recorded AS the most effective of ali odors as az sntiseptic.

English Women pla, Solitaire.

Ladies of the royal court of England, rom the queen down, are playing the old-time game of patience" known as solitaire in this country. Every spare minute is taken up with one or Ehe other of the hundred varieties of the game. Patience" boards, enabling one to play the game on the knees, are covered with col1red satin, embroidered with various suits of the cards. Poek- cts are arranged for tie pack, and a book of directions accompanies each board. Tie board enables the player ;o stop a game at any point and return .o it later without losing her place But it is doubtful if the fad will take n this country. It requires a vivic Imagination to eenjure up such spectacle as a roomful of American women playing solitaire.
