An Equine Hold-Up.

The New York World said that pas
sengers from Burlington, due in New
York at a. H., arrived at the Grand
Central station four hours late as
the result of a joke which two pasture
horses of Shelburne Farms, DR.. w.
Seward Webb's country place, played on
them. The train pulled out of Burlng-
ton on the Rutland railroad at 10 o'clock
Sunday night and had just passed DR..
Webb's estate when the engineer made
out in the darkness two forms on the
track ahead. The train came TO a
stop with jerk, and the fireman Jumped
out to investigate. He found two super
animated horses standing meekly on
the track. He tried to drive them away,
but though they galloped ahead, they
persisted in staying between the rails.
The train proceeded slowly at their
heels, stopping every now and then
while the trains crew got out and re-
newed their efforts to get them out of
the way. The animals cantered gayly
along, crowd of trainsmen and the
slowly moving, train in their wake.
Finally they came TO treastle and
the train crew imagined they at last
saw a way of raising the blockade. But
the horses chose the tIeastle instead OF
the level green stretch beside the track,
and picked their way carefully over the
ties. Finally the animals left the track
after they had paced the train for ter
miles and threw the railroad schedule
thirty.hve minutes behind time. Ar
irving at Troy, the New York passenger:
found they had missed their regular
connection and were forced to wait fol
the Pan-American express to continue
their journey. They arrived in New
York shortly before noon.

Deputy United States Marshal F. III.
Chapman of Rutland has established a
private fish hatchery in the cellar of his
house. 1t now contains about $4,000
brook trout eggs taken from fish obtain
ed at pond In Chittenden. These eggs
will ultimately be sent to the state fish
hatchery in st. Johnsbury. f. W. Cobb,
a government fish culturist, who is sta
toned at st. Johnsbury, was In Rutland
a week ago, and has since been engaged
in getting trout eggs. The fish are net
ted and after being deprived of the roe
are returned to the water. These eggs,
as soon as obtained, have been shipped
In cans to Mr.. Chapman, and placed at
once In his hatchery. The reason for
keeping these eggs in Rutland instead of
shipping them at once to st. Johnsbury
is the fact that better results may be
obtained from artficially hatched eggs,
il, after being taken from the fish, they
are not moved any more than necessary
until they show signs of fertilization.
1t was expected that about double the
number of eggs which has been taken so
far would be secured, but for some rea-
son the trout spawned earlier than usual
this year, and large per cent Of the fish
Melted had already spawned.

The New Geometry That Denies Euclid
Euclid based his geometry on certain
assumptions which he called axioms and
postulates. The most celebrated of
these was the so-called parallel postu-
late. All the great mathematicians tried
for 2000 years to prove this. All failed.
Finally the Hungarian, Bolyia, and the
Russian, Lobachevski, made geometry,
based not on the axiom or postuate,
but on its direct contradiction. Wonder
full to say, this new geometry, founded
on the flat contradiction of what had
been accepted as automatic for twenty
centuries, turned out TO be perfectly
logical, true, self consistent and of
marvellous beauty.
SIN it many of the good old theorems
of Euclid were superseded in surpris.
ing way. In Euclid the thirty second
proposition of the first book is that the
sum of the angles in every triangle is
just exactly two right angles.
SIN the non-Euclidean geometry, on the
contrary, the sum of the angles In every
triangle Is less than two right angles.
In the Euclidean geometry, parallels
never approach.
I'm the non-Euclidean geometry,
parallel continually approach.
SIN the Euclidean geometary all points
equdistant from straight line are on
a straight line.
'In the non-Euclidean geometry all
points equidistant from straight line
are OH a curve called the equidistantIal
"In the Euclidean geometry straight
line appears as the limit approached by
a circumference as the radius increases.
"In the non-Euclidean this is another
curve called the aricyle.

The Duty
of Mothers.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are SO taught
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs treat
ment, and her mother should see that
she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham's Laboratory
at Lynn, Mass, and secure from a
woman the most efficient advice with
out charge.
