The use of gas to make the hair grow Is one of the latest medical discoveries. The gas employed Is oxygen. A large cap fits tightly round the head and Is supplied with oxygen from bag which is slung over the patients shoulders. It Is worn for a few hours every day and even In cases of absolute badness Is said to produce a more or less luxu- riant crop of hair.
 The discovery was made at the Oxy- gen hospital, London. The gas is used for the cure of quite number of dis eases. A woman was undergoing the oxygen cure for skin disease. and one of her arms had for many days been placed In light alright box filled with the gas. It was soon noticed that on that part of the arm that was unaf- fected by the disease the growth of hair was much stimulated, and this naturally suggested oxygen as a cure for badness.
 The first experiment was made upon woman who had completely lost her hair, and 1t was found that after few weeks treatment there was quite a strong growth.

DEAD BY THE LAW.
Czolgosz Meets His Fate In the Aw-
 full Electric Chair.

CKo1gosz Meets His Fate In the Aw-
 full Electric Chair.
 Leon A. Czolgosz, the assassin of the late President Mckinley. has paid the penalty for his crime. Shortly after [ o'clock Tuesday morning he met death in the electrical chair in tie Auburn prison.
 As with the trial and sentence of CZolgosz, his execution was devoid of sensational features. From the first Warden Mead had taken great pains to have the affair conducted quietly and smoothly.
 Czolgosz refused to heed the words of priests who came to urge spiritual preparation for death and declined to either re-embrace Roman Cath 1llcism he was notified to prepare for death.
 Once in the chair short work was made by the trained assistants of the executioner in affixing the apparatus to his limbs and head and connecting the wires that descend from the roof of the conieal metallic cap placed on the head of the prisoner with the arms and legs of the chair. which were sheathed with active electrical con ductors.
 Electrician Davis then turned on the current, and in a moment, which seem- ed to the tense minds of the witnesses an eternity, the assassin of William Mckinley was lifeless corpse.
 State Superintendent of Prisons Col lins persuaded the assassin's brother not to make a demand for the body because of the trouble that might en- sue were 1t taken outside the prison walls. A scheme to exhibit the body has thus been frustrated, and the au- thorities buried it in quicklime and acid in the prison yard.
 The assassin was convicted on Sept. 25 after d trial lasting two days. On Sept. 26 he was sentenced by Justice White to die in the week beginning Oct. 2S

Queer Nests.

There Is bird in South America that builds singular nest. so singular that the nest gives the bird its name of oven bird. This queer tenement Is large and dome shaped and is built on the ground of mud and looks like q rude oven or kiln. The entrance Is at one side, and all the interior is plaster ed with clay and grass or hair, which becomes hard when baked by the sum-
 It Is divided by a partition running nearly to the top, and in one room there is soft carpet of moss, grass and feathers, on which the female lays her eggs and rears her young. while the father sleeps undisturbed in his own apartment and only goes in to help care for his family during the day.
 Then there is the bower bird, whose native home Is Australia. It is not satisfied with nursery and room for papa only, but 1t must have a drawing room too. Some of them build In trees and others on the ground, and l will describe the last mentioned be- cause they are larger and finer. They make first what looks like n hall or avenue of tall grasses, bent and woven together at the top and lined and car peted with twigs. At the end of the entrance hall Is a room of considerable size, which Is the bower. This they decorate with bright colored feathers. flowers, bits of glass, rags. small stones, shells and bones and other brightly tinted objects, often bringing them from a long distance. Another hall leads of on the other side, so there is an entrance at both sides of the bower. The birds use thls not only as . nesting place, but they gather there in numbers and strut about and dance and carry on in a very funny tay.

Important Cabinet Meeting.

Tuesdays cabinet meeting was devot- ed to consideration of military situation in the Philippines. The condition In the island of Samar. where the United States troops suffered the most severe check they have encountered yet in the Philippines in the massacre of almost the entire Company c of the Ninth in- fantry, had led the war department to consider the propriety of stopping tie reductions which were going on in the Philippine army through the discharge of thousands of enlisted men whose terms are expiring. However, after hearing Secretary Roots report and dis cussing the situation thoroughly. the cabinet decided that there was no pres ent occasion to suspend the reduction in the military forces In the Philip

 On each of the boats there will be four electric lamps on cables 200 feet long Each light will be lowered in a net which will be automatically open ed. The weight of the fish will close 1t. Each boat will be equipped with a complete electric lighting plant, and wherever possible wood will be used 10 deaden sound. For night fishing the decks will be brilliantly lighted.

To Make Ozone by Electricity.

A patent has recently been taken out in Germany for the production of ozone by the identification of the air by a process which reduces the heat gener- ated and, therefore, the formation of oxides of nitrogen to minimum. The apparatus to be preferred has its elec- trodes covered with very large num- Der of points and separated by glass plates. The great point appears to be to maze the electric discharge as near ly invisible as possible.

The Star of Hope.

The stories of that world and It's holy hilarities come in upon our souls sometimes In song, sometimes in ser mon, sometimes In hours of solitary reflection. and they are, to use the words of my text, sweet influences. But there Is one star that affects us more with its sweet influences than the center star, the Alcyone of the Pleiades, and that Is what one Bible author calls the Star of Jacob and an- other Bible author calls the Morning Star. Of all the sweet influences that have ever touched our earth those that radiate from Christ are the sweetest.

FORT SULLIVAN TO BE SOLD
A Famous Old Fertilization In Maine
VIII he Abandoned.


The United States government is
about to abandon the famous old forti-
fication at Eastport, known for SO
years as Fort Sullivan. The land &C.
cupied by the fort and it's buildings is
to be sold for house lots, says Ban
gor (Me.) dispatch to the New York
Sun. This old fort was built in 1903,
following the embargo act passed by
congress in 1907. 1t consisted original
ly of crescent shaped battery Of
stonework II feet thick, backed with
six feet of earthwork; blockhouse
of pine timber, with walls two feet
thick, and magazine of stone, with
walls two feet thick and an arched
roof
The United States steamship Wasp
brought company of artillery to man
the fort, which mounted four IS pound
ers. In 1912 the fort was seized by
the British. who held it to the close Ct
the war and who erected several build
ings there. one of which is yet stand
ing in good condition, used as tene-
ment house by some Of the poorer peo-
pie Of the town. At various times up
to 1875 the fort has been garrisoned,
but of late it has been given over to
squatters.

nothing can take the place Of the eX-

SAVED BY A FRENCH CABBY.


Senator Clark's Lively Experience
with Some Partisan Roughs.
The closest chum of Senator Clark Of
Montana, now in Paris, Is cabman
named Marloupiot, who fought for the
senator few nights ago when three
roughs assaulted him as he was re-
turning to his hotel after midnight,
says the New York World.
The assault occurred in little street
behind the Church Madeleine. The
American put up brave fight, but he
was alone against three and had just
been tripped when Marloupiot, dirty
and disreputable looking nighthawk.
but generous and honest withal, who
was driving aimlessly near by, hasten
ed to the rescue. Jumping from his
seat, the cabby began to belabor the
thugs with his whip handle just as two
Of the trio were holding Mr.. Clark
down. while the third began to go
through his pockets.
Maroupiot was promptly sandbagged
and rendered unconscious, but his in
PREVENTION gave the senator chance
to regain his feet Then two OF the
highwaymen became scared and ran
away. Clark easily settled the third
thief with blow on the mouth, which
foored the fellow and made him spit
out bis teeth.
Senator Clark now, fearing that the
unconscious cabby might be dead,
placed Marloupiot In the cab and clam
bered upon the box himself, where he
picked up the reins and drove as rap
idly as possible to his fashionable ho-
tel. All other establishments on the
way were closed. Under medical care
Marlouplot soon regained his senses.
Not only did the senator reward his
rescuer handsomely, but he has en-
gagged the cabby for the whole Of his
time until further orders.
