Every one who has seen the moving
pictures, or klnetoscope exhibitions,
which are a common feature of vaude-
vile shows must have been struck
by the fact that these pictures prove
that many people, especially women,
make a living posing or going through
all sorts of action for moving pictures.
A few days ago persons walking on
the banks of the Schuylkill, near Phila-
delphia, were startled by seeing what
looked like a duel between two wo-
men. The regular duello was slmu-
lated In every feature, and the affair
seemed SO realistic that passers by ran
for the police. 1t turned out that the
ubiquitous picture machine was the
cause of the affair.
What an odd world 1t will be when n
number of people do nothing but simu-
late all sorts of acts for other people to
look at-battles, courtings, duels, get
ting married, dying, acting the buffoon
and in every possible way doing some
thing unreal with no present audience
to be impressed and no one to applaud
or to hiss except the photographer.

Fate of LonefeIlov's birthplace.

The key has been turned in the door
Of the Longfellow house in Portland,
Me-, and it is now closed to the pub
lie until such time as it is definitely
decided what will be done with it. I'm
der the will of the late Mrs. Pierce the
house is to go to the Maine Historical
society, provided certain conditions are
compiled with. 1t is regarded by many
members of the society that these con-
ditions are so Onerous that there is
no possibility Of being able to accept
them within the time limit set by the
will. The Historical society. has the
matter under consideration and in the
hands of a committee. The Daughters
of the Revolution and the Women's
Literary union have also appointed
committees to assist in the work If they
are needed.-Portland Argus.

81 have been doing a little figuring
on time" remarked an erratic citizen
yesterday, "and l have reached some
rather interesting conclusions. 1 want
ed to find out how much time man con-
sumed in keeping tab on time, and l
found that, If the whole world Is con-
sldered in the computation, years
would be crowded into second of
time.
ITO Illustrate what 1 mean, take a
city where 100000 watches are wound
up every day. Now, it takes probably
an average of 15 seconds to wind u
watch. 1t would take, then, 100000
seconds to wind 100000 watches. This
would mean 25O00 minutes or $50
hours and 10 minutes or % days and
16 hours. | suppose there are in the
city of New Orleans 100000 watches
and clocks 20 be wound up every day,
so that nearly month is spent in the
city every day in winding watches and
clocks.
zone man In n years time would con-
sumo 5,475 seconds in winding his
watch if he is prompt about it and is
willing to give 10 seconds every day
to this useful article. This would
mean several hours during every year
that he kept up the practice. Allowing
80 years us the average life, a man
would spend 191, ,525 seconds, or 3,190
minutes and II seconds, or $50 hours
and 10 minutes, or % days and 20
hours, in winding his watch. New

1t was at the Normal school that this
happened, and the class laughed. 1t
was laugh on the teacher, too, but
he didn't get angry, although 1t did
break into the serious contemplation of
serious studies with which he was try
ing to interest the students.
1t was in the study Of psychology
and they were discussing what ideas
first entered the human mind when GER
tain words were spoken or written
whether the mind thought of one GER
tain object designated by the word or
the whole general class which is en-
bodied in that word. To experiment
on this mental phenomenon in order to
bring 1t more clearly to the attention
of the students the professor said he
would write q word on the board and
then let one of them tell instantly what
impression was made upon her mind.
He called upon one of the pupils to
be ready to think quickly and tell ex-
actly what her first thought was after
she saw the word which he was about
to write. He stood close to the board,
so that the word was hidden by his
shoulders until he turned. He wrote
the word pig" and all of the class
saw it except the girl who was stand
ing ready to make reply. When he
turned he didn't get out of her way,
and she couldn't see the word. In re-
ply to his sharp, quick question, "Now,
what do you see?" she replied nalvely,
81 see you" And the class laughed

FISH WITH WINGS AND BEAK
A Cyrano de BcrEerac In the Ocean
Has Been Discovered.


Flying fish, called by naturalists
"eXocGtus." are common sight to all
voyagers in tropical and subtropical
seas. Their usual length is from 10 to
- inches, though one IS inches long
has recently been described. They are
enabled to execute flying leaps by
means Of the great development of
their forward or pectoral fins. During
flight the fins are kept quietly distend-
ed, without any motion. Their flight
is rapid greatly exceeding that of Il
ship going ten miles an hour, but grad
ually decreasing in velocity and rare
ly extending beyond a distance of 500
feet.
Another curious fish is the halfbeak,
which has an extraordinarily long pro-
tuberance from the end of the lower
jaw. They usually attain n length of
about foot. OF course they have not
the power of flight as the flying fishes
have. Yet naturalists considered them
closely related to the flying fish. The
relationship has been fully confirmed
bl Il ulIiht specimen hlSION'lttl III llIc
ichthyological collection of the Acade-
my of Natural Sciences and named
"HemiexocRtus candimaculatus, or
"the half flying fish with n spotted
tail"
This curious creature, although only
a little over an inch in length, is GER
tainly one of the most interesting dis
coveries recently made In ichthyology.
1t has a tail and large forward fins
exactly like the flying fish, but its head
is wholly different, for the lower jaw
is extended into curious beaklike
structure, the mouth being at its base.
In this respect it exactly resembles the
halfbeak.
HemlexocHtus Is therefore an inter-
mediate form connecting two impor-
tant groups of fishes, and his advent
upon the archaeological horizon will no
doubt be hailed with much interest, as
1t is just such forms as these that are
needed in geological science to bridge
over gaps In the genealogical history
of many animate creatures. The speci-
men in question was obtained from the
western coast of Mexico, in the gulf of
Observation-Disclosures Record.

COURT NOTES.
(From Saturdays daily.)

Yesterday afternoon the United States
Commissioner found Captain E. Wal
lace had sufficient evidence against him
to warrant him being held for cruelty
on the high seas. He was released up
on furnishing bonds to the amount of
81, 900. The hearing of first mate, John
Douglas, has not been held, but will
take place today. The hearing of the
second mate was also called and con-
cluded yesterday. He, too, was found
to have enough evidence of an incrimi-
mating nature against him to warrant
his being kept on shore until such time
as the courts may try him. The second
mate was unable to furnish bonds, so
he will have to spend his time between
the present date and the calling of his
trial in Oahu prison. The Sea King is
here from Newcastle with coal. On the
way to this port several of the crew
complained Immediately upon their
arrival. which was on the Goth of June,
they filed charges that they had been
most shamefully treated by the officers
of the vessel The testimony of several
Of the sailors was Of such a nature that
the Commissioner ordered that eight of
them be held on behalf of the United
states Government.

The disposition Of sewage. including
the drainage from all the sources Of
pollution. in large and small cities has
become one Of the most importont
health problems Of the age. The most
pressing part Of the problem relates
10 the deposits OF matter in which the
germs OF disease may lurk or be in
active form.
Where there Is a chance for a great
drainage system like that Of the Chi
cago sanitary channel the problem is
easily solved. The highly diluted sew
age is dlslnfected by the action Of the
water flow with which IN mingles and
ii becomes harmless after a short
time Of friction with conauent waves
Of the current This fact ia science
has been proved by the effects Of the
current in the sanitary channel on the
sewage from Chicago.
But no satisfactory solution has been
offered for a method OF disinfecting
the sewage Of large and small cities
not connected with the currents Of
considerable running streams. The
question has become very serious IN
the populous towns OF the lacustrins
regions at the west and at the east
Some lakeside towns have a local popu-
lation Of thousands. Many have sum
mer resort hotels. where a greater
temporary and uncertain population
than that OF the town are accommo-
dated At these places the sewage Is
run into the adjoining lakes. In time
the lakes will become mere cesspools,
breeding bad odors and malarial dis
ease
