For a long time this curious
phenomenon was a mystery, but
an analysis of the stone shows it,
to be fossil, mixed with clay and
containing portion of rock salt
and nitre. This fact being known,
the explanation was easy. The
salt, absorbing the moisture, turned
black when the conditions were
favorable for rain, while the dry

out the salt from the interior of

A SOLDIER.

Pat O'Brien was, as his name
would indicate, an Irishman of the
old school. During the late war
with Spain, I enlisted in certain
engineer corps and found Pat one
of my comrades, and he was sure,
enough good one too. We we're
first located at Fort Sheridan and
from there we we're dered to-
Montank Point, L. l., where we
were very busy putting up tents,~
ETC., and preparing for the arrival
of the troops from Santiago.
Having been detailed to special
service in the Quartermaster's
department, [ lost sight of my
friend Pat until one evening he
happened to be on guard near the
Office. It was hard to tell who
would be officer of the day or
guard, out of the many regiments
stationed there at that time, and
as it happened that night Pat had
not seen the officer of the day and
had, up to this time, no knowledge
of who he was. I stood talking to-
him for some time, admiring his
fine rich brogue, when who should
loom up from the darkness but an
officer with his sword. I felt
certain as to his being the officer"
of the day. Pat walked toward
him and in a loud voice commanded
him to halt, etc. Finally the
officer said, what are your orders?''-
Now every soldier on enlistment
is provided with general orders
and must learn them by heart So
that they can be repeated at such:
times as this, with such other
orders as may be necessary to cover
the occasion, but Pat replied:
"What ordhers? The only ones I.
got was when the sergeant of the
day told me to look out for the.

three all right, but finally, as he.
was making one grand rush, he
was halted in no gentle terms by
a regular who meant business.

BLOOD ON PICTURE EXPLAINED.

BLOOD ON PICTURE EXPLAINED.
DIR. G. P. Digit of Minneapolis,
a we'll known bacteriologist, comes
forward with scientific explana-
ton of the blood on the sacred
picture at Menominee, Mich.
DIR. Digit says there is form
of bacteria, which if it alights on
certain surfaces such as potatoes,
will develop into red pigment
which might easily be mistaken
for blood. His theory is that a
splash of soup, milk, beef tea or
white of egg on the Menominee
picture might develop a bacteria
forming a pigment the color of
blood and which would require
chemical analysis to determine it's
exact nature.

Morning Drive. refer to a calf
or pasture to gentleman con-
nected with the Irvine factory
these days, you will probably be
floored at once. At any rate you
will certainly meet with chilly
reception. His antipathy to these
seemingly harmless and pastoral
subjects came about in the fol-
lowing manner:
The gentleman, whom we shall
call Mr.. T., has a fine young calf,
which, up to short time ago,
was as the apple of his eye to him.
City life, however, does not agree
with said calf. It pines for the
green fields and fresh air of the
country. Knowing this, the own
er of the calf hitched it at the rear
Of his buggy and started out last
Sunday morning for a green pas
ture some miles from the city,
which had been recommended to
him for the quality of it's clover.
The owner of the pasture was
personally unknown to the owner
Of the calf, although both knew
each other by reputation.
Arriving at the pasture, the
owner of the calf got out of his
buggy, unhitched the gentle crea-
ture from behind, let down the
bars Of the gate, and soon stood
ankle deep in clover, his calf
browsing about at the end of it's
rope the while. While he was
standing thus, admiring the view,
he was startled by the sound of
many hoofs. Turning he saw a
large herd of cattle, led by two en-
ragged hornless bulls, charging
down upon him. He took in a
few length of Lulu's-the calls
name is Lulu chain, and grasp
ing his whip, which he had
fortunately taken out of the car
riage, in his right hand, he pre-
pared to face the onslaught. The
fierce herd wheeled about him
and finally formed a huge circle,
with heads down and eyes glaring,
around Lulu and her master.
Whilst Mr.. 2. was debating
within himself what to do next, a
dozen dogs of all sizes and breeds
came tearing over a little hill,
circled twice around the herd, and
then took up a position in front
of the cattle in the ring.
All at once the true situation
downed on Mr.. z. The farm
animals were in league against
him and his calf. It was a cold
blooded, premeditated design to
exterminate Lulu and him in the
clover field. He turned towards
the gate, and only reached it
after breaking his whip over the
backs of the COWS.
Mr.. 2. next decided to drive to
the house and investigate matters,
SO he once more bitched Lulu
behind the buggy and started off.
All the way up the lane the an
imals inside the fence kept pace
with the buggy and the calf in
the road, and in this manner the
procession approached the farm
house.
Now the owner of the farm is a
son Of Erin-a somewhat hot
headed man-and when he saw
his live stock in such an excitable
frame of mind and his dogs so
worked up, he gazed upon the
stranger in the buggy and the
trailing calf with disfavor.
"What tn divil d. ye mean by
comm here an disruptin' my
Housekeeping" he demanded.
"Git off my land, an git quick"

posseessor of Lulu, "I'm"

A NOTEWORTHY COMBINATION.

The consolidation of the Chica-
go Record and the Chicago Times
Herald was one of the most i'm
portant events in the history of
modern metropolitan journalism.
People familiar with the news
papers published in the great
capitals of the world say that the
best daily papers are made in
Chicago, and it is we'll known
that the Chicago Record and the
Chicago Times. Herald ranked at
the very front among Chicago's
best dailies. Each covered the
worlds news thorough every day,
and each possessed also distinctive
special features giving it
that individuality so attractive
to its readers. Now that
the two have been combined, all
the resources and world-wide::facil-
tiles of both papers are united in
the Chicago Record-Herald. It
is in truth "a great combination"
"a combination without parallel
in American journalism. The
fortunate readers of the Chicago
Record and the Chicago Times
Herald now receive every day a
newspaper whose news facilities
are unequaled by any other
American newspaper.

ing last, just after The MIRROR had
gone to press, a long, thin gentle
man, clad in blue overalls and a
wide brimmed straw hat, and
carrying a pot of paint in each
hand, appeared in the Office. The
left side of his face was distended
by something in his mouth and on
the right sat a grin of ghoulish
glee.
''Move them chairs and tables
out of m way" said he, as he
recklessly stopped paint on the
newly washed floor. So saying,
he disappeared down the stairs, to
return anon with a long handled
brush and bucket of whitewash.
Silently and without ostentation,
that attenuated gentleman has
chivied The MIRROR staff about

dreary week. His magic arts
hypnotized all with whom he
came in contact, and also left spots
on their clothes. None defed his
bidding.

however, freshened things up to a
