Some years ago, says the Popular
Science Monthly, Grifht made some
observations in a closed gallery On
the speed attained by "blue-rock'
pigeons and English pheasants and
cartridges. The two first mentioned
few at the rate of only &2.S miles ner
hour, while the partridge made but
28.l miles, and these rates were all
considerably in excess of what they
made in the open. The carrier pigeon
is a rather fastdying bird, yet he
average speed is not very great.
Thus, the average made in Is matches
was only Sc English miles an hour,
although in two Of these trials a speed
of about IS mics was maintained Cor
four successive hours. In this country
the average racing speed is apparently
about 35 miles an hour although 4
few exceptionally rapid birds have
made shortdistance flights at the rate
of from As to 50 miles an hour. The
longest recorded flight of carrier

only about 76 miles a day.
A case of geological action so rapid
as to be easily observed is the moving
mountain in Hunterdon county, New
Jersey. This mountain" is a knob,
or mound, which is sliding down The
side of a full-sized mountain. 1t has
obliterated old trunpikes and road
ways, ana threatens to slide suddenly
and do great damage. The landslide
already covers % acres of one farm
and has destroyed the boundaries OF
another. At the point where the
mound has torn away from the noun
tain is a deep gulch, in which have
Deen found many Indian relics. The
place is so dangerous from lodges and
banks which threaten to fall that no
body has dared explore the cleft
thoroughly. This geological move
ment has been so rapid that a new
map Of the county may be necessary.
Heavy rains, says the Detroit Free
Press, stir the entire valley to fear
lest the whole hill tumble and DESTROY
everything in its path.

Otto Herr the leader Of an "N-
petition to Siberia to secure the body
of a mammoth discovered there some
time since, has lately returned to st.
Petersburg. A cable report to the
New York Sun, says: 1t was evident
that bears, wolves and foxes had for
some time been feasting on he
mammoth's flesh, which may have
been some thousands of years Old.
They have stripped the meat off from
large parts Of the body. Fortunately

Evidences of a buried village have
recently been reported in Las7en
county California, on the line of What
was known in 184S as "Lassen's
Cutoff. The discovery was made tv
a party of surveyors who camped one
evening over the spot, and were led
by certain indications to make q
search for buried ruins. Digging
down a short distance, they were re
warded by finding numerous skeletons
and a number Of peculiarly shaped
dishes, cooking utensils, weapons,

The acronautical problem which Is
just now receiving most attention in
France is a voyage across the great
desert of Sahara. NJ. Deburaux con-
siders It absolutely practicable to
travel from Tunis to the Niger by
means of the winds travelling in that
region. He declares himself ready to
make the experiment. Up to the
present time his ambition has re-
NAMED unrealiaed, for the reason that
the necessary funds have not been
forthcoming.

light many valuable memorials which,
with those already unearthed, will
some day give a faithful picture of
the ancient metropolis, its streets,
temples and palaces and its social, IN
tellectual and religious life. Up to
now 400 inscribed clay slabs have
been found in the center of the ruins
of Babylon. Of only two of them are
the inscriptions yet deCipnered, out
they are pearls of Bablylonian litora-
ture. One tablet contains great
part of the celebrated Babylonian com
pendulum which explains the Baby
lonian cuneiform characters. 1t a
very ancient dictionary, of great lin
guistic interest, and Of exceptional
value practically. The second tablet
contains no less than the litany
which was chanted by the singers of
the temple of Esagila on the return Of
the god, Marduk, to his sanctuary.
Marduk, or Merodach was the son Of
Ea, and one of the II great gods Of
the Assyro-Babyloni pantheon.
Immunity to smallpox and to re
vaccination are not the same, accord
ing to Dr. Fielder as reprinted in tic
Medical Record. In an address, Dr,
Fielder said he thought it was gen
orally admitted that two vaccinations,
done at different times, were better
than several insertions made at the
same time. He was himself a lrm
believer in reVaCCinatiOn, but it was
desirable to make each vaccination pro-
tect the person for as long a time rs
possible, SO that if the person
neglected subsequent vaccination he
would be protected for the maximum
time and the community likewise he
wished especially to call attention to
the fact that immunity to smallpox
and immunity to reyaccination are
not the same-in other words, that Il
person might be immuncd to small
poX and might yet be successfully re-
vaccinated. He knew Of no rule by
which one could judge of the length
Of time a person would remain i'm

yesterday j. j. Dunno, who was attor-

The order of the court declares that
the law is unconstitutional. ana 1 am
of the opinion that the licenses fall
with the law. Every man selling Primo
beer today is violating the liquor laws
for he is doing it without license
and could be prosecuted. The license IS
of no value whatever. as all acts by
virtue of an unconstitutional law can
be of no effect. What further action
will be taken by the plaintiffs has not
been definitely decided, and cannot be
until this appeal question is settled.
Mr. Dunno did not believe that the
appeal would act as a stay of eXecu-
ton but was not prepared to state eX-
actly what course would be pursued III

saloons holding these beer licenses are
outside of the limits, and a full liquor
license could not be given them, even
though the Honolulu Brewing Co
would be willing to put up the balance
to make up the $1,000 which other deal
ers must pay. 1t is likely also that the
act will be amended by the next Leg
isIature so as to allow all saloons hand

mean time there will hardly be any
prosecutions by the Territory against
those holding the licenses which have
been declared to be invalid. The mat

INSURANCE AGENCY CHANGES.
Wilson-Shernan Company Acquires
Union Agency's Business.

An important change in insurance cir
Giles was announced yesterday. 10 take
effect Monday. Following its well known
policy OF cOnsOlldat ting agencies, the VIII
son-Sherman company has acquired con-
troll OF the Union Insurance cOmpany's
walker Bros.) agency, and by this merg-
er the Wilson-Sherman company becomes
one of the largest underwriting concerns
in Utah. Concurrently with the aequisi
ton Of the agencies represented by the
Union company, Lewis 3. Rogers who,
for a long time has been associated with
It as secretary and manager, withdrew
and was appointed special agent of the
Phoenix and the German-AmeTican COM
Danies.
The general agencies of the following
companies are now with the Wilson
Sherman company: Queen. North Ameri-
can. American Central Citizens. Spring
field. National, Phoenix and Germany
American Fire Insurance companies, the
Fidelity * Casualty company, the United
States Fidelity & Guaranty company. the
Mortgage Trust company of Pennsylvania
and the Aetna Real Estate & Investment
company.
Seine weeks ago Messrs. E w Wilson
and Hoyt Sherman acquired large in
terest in the Bank of Commerce and Mr..
Wilson was elected cashier. This made
necessary some changes in the active
management of the Wilson-Sherman com
pany. Yesterday Mr.. Sherman was
elected by the directors president and
manager and MI Wilson vice president
and treasurer. The position of assistant
manager was created and Y. P. Hiskey
who. for several years. has been serving
the company as secretary. was chosen
for this place. Mr.. Hiskey will have
active charge of the consolidated. insur-
ance agencies. Mr.. Sherman will be
manager only nominally, and will in con-
nectiOn with the bank. exercise his au-
thority only in a general way, devOting
his time and energies as heretofore to the
local agency of the Colorado & Southern
railway.

KILL SIX OF THE STRIKERS.
Police Fire on the Mob, With Fatal
Results.

Trieste, Feb. 15.-Many black flags
We're flying this afternoon and mobs
paraded the streets, smashing the win
dows of those who did not display
mourning. The result was that there
were repeated encounters between the
rioters. soldiers and police. and many
arrests were made.
One detachment of troops, which was
attacked, retaliated by firing on the
mob.
Three of the rioters were killed and
four were wounded. The street lamps
have been broken off and the gas has
been ignited The police and troops
are pelted from the housetOps with
tiles and slate. The burgOmaster, who
is president of the arbitration tribunal,
announced that it had been decided to
comply with the demands of the strik-
ing stokers. The town council protests
against the &c, N ~f the government
authorities, and r. asked for the lib
Grafton of those 3 rs who have been
arrested.
The government has applied special
regime to the Trieste district and has
suspended the ordinary civil rights.
The announcement that it had been
decided to concede the demands of the
strikers had a tranquilizing effect this
evening. The total number of persons
killed IS six. and a score were injured
