in Yorkshire in the previous December,

great incredulity. AT that time Sir Jo-

from the sky. Two or three years lat

stones near Benares, in Hindustan. A
chemical analysis OF the stones from
all three sources proved them to be
identical in composition, and increduli-
ty as to their meteoric origin began
to give way.-Notes and Queries.

for the smugglers and their white

who formerly held Wallis job, is
wanted by American police.
AT Cascade a willy Chinaman by
name of Sam Sing runs a laundry,
and some say an opium joint, but
whatever he runs he has seemed pop
ular with his countrymen, who have
been calling on him by twos and
threes for the past year. Their calls
were usually of only a day or two
duration, when they would disappear
from Canadian soil. Wednesday, the
3rd inst, a party of Is Cinnamon
were discovered trying to run the
guard lines, but the new customs
officer, whose vigilance has brought
about the unearthing of the snug
Cling of Cinnamon, fired upon the
party and capture five, who are now
locked up.
Since then two more have been
caught trying to cross. One can talk
no English and the other only knows
three words-'Give money Cascade
cat the time Officer Vail fired upon
the party last Wednesday he found
one white man running back to Can
adam soil, but did not catch UP with
him until he had crossed the bound
airy, when he stopped and waited for
Vail to come up. Vail then recog-
nized his predecessor, Stewart, and
asked him what he was doing in the
bunch. Stewart replied that he was
watching the chinks sneak across
Sam was too bold for once and
was caught on American soil and will
probably serve a term at McNeill's
island for smuggling Cinnamon con-
trary to the Geary law. The five who
were captured are ready to give evil
dence, because they paid their $50
head and din't get across. The Is
who did get across are probably sat

Five more were captured Wednes-
day night by Vail, and are now in the
hands of United States authorities.
None were captured during Stewards

A POUNDS A POUND.
But a Pound of Feathers Is Heavier
Thaa a Pound of Lead.

But a Pound of Feathers Is Heavier
THAI a Pound of Lead.
That old question about pound of
feathers and a pound of lead takes on
new interest when we look at it In
simple scientific way. 1t seems alb
surd, of course, that a pound of one
thing could be heavier than pound of
another thing, and yet that is exactly
what may be shown In this case; not
that the pound of lead is heavier than
the pound of feathers, as most persons
would say on the spur of the moment.
but just the other way-a pound of
feathers is heavier than a pound of
lead.
This apparently inconsistent state
ment may be quite easily proved. With
accurate scales weigh pound of lead,
using ordinary shot for convenience;
then with the same scales weigh a
pound of feathers, putting them into
muslin bag for the purpose. The feath-
ers and the bag together must weigh
exactly pound.
The next step In the operation will
show apparently that there Is no diff
ference whatever In the weight of the
two articles, for you put the shot in
one pan of a balance and the bag of
feathers in the other, and after little
seesawing they will come to an exact
level
Now, however. the scientific phase Of
the question presents itself, and you
are reminded that in weighing the ar
ticles thus in the open air you have
taken no account of the buoyant pow
er of the air, which bears everything
up in proportion to the objects bulk.
AS the bag of feathers is of greater
bulk than the shot, 1t Is borne up more
than the shot is, and for that reason
1t is necessary to use little more than
a pound of feathers to balance pound
of lead.
This, however, Is theoretical The
practical proof is obtained when you
place the balance bearing the lead and
the feathers on the receiver of an air
pump and cover them with the glass
bell. Then exhaust the air, and you
will find that the pan bearing the feath-
ers will sink and the pan bearing the
lead will rise, thus showing that when
weighed in the ordinary way the guam
tity of feathers used to make a pound
Is actually more than a pound.-New

American Veterinary Medical asso-
citation at Minneapolis, DR.. M. E.
Knowles, Montana's veterinarian, has
taken UP campaign against the tur-

the state veterinarian is waging it
in order that the stockmen of the

dread disease anthrax.
cat the recent meeting of our as

day, 'it was demonstrated beyond
the shadow of a doubt that the tur-
key buzzard is carrier of anthrax
This fact was shown incontrovertibly
by DR.. knight, the state veterinarian
of Texas, and / determined that
when came home would take such
steps as l could to prevent a possible
introduction of anthrax through the
buzzard's agency
"The demonstration made at the
convention on this subject by DIR.
knight is of especial interest to Mon
tana because of the fact that anthrax
exists in North Dakota and Nebras-
ka, and it would be no difficult thing
for the disease to be introduced into
this state by the buzzards. On my
way home from Minneapolis made
trip along the Big Muddy in Valley
county, and while out I. saw several
buZZards.
eve have never had case of an
thrax in Montana, but the disease
works havoc among stock in Texas
and all along the Mississippi delta.
1t is a panzootic disease, with three
forms-the acute, the sub-acute and
the very acute. Like blackleg, it
sometimes kills in few hours, while
in other cases it will not prove fatal
within less than three or four days;
but it proves fatal in the end. 1t af-
fects all species of stock and even
man is not immune when the disease
begins it's work.
81 have examined the code and find
nothing relative to the killing of buzz
yards, but to make sure I have asked
the attorney generals Office to look
into the matter. If there is a law
that protects the buzzard it ought to
be repealed at the first opportunity,
and the ranchers and stockmen ought
to keep their guns loaded for the I'M
calmly bird A stitch in time saves
nine, according to the old saw, and
what we want to do in Montana is to
prevent the buzzard from introducing
disease by killing him off.-Independ-

Eccentricities of English,

There is a new maid in the family,
Swedish girl, who has many things
besides language to learn, says an ex-
change. Her new mistress, who is a
young wife with a husband many
years her senior, is trying to instruct
her. One of the lessons was upon
bread, the girl being told that she
should speak of bread which had lost
its freshness as stale, and not old. The
girl was sure to remember this, for
she was quick to learn, and she did.
So the young wife knew when few
days later the maid remarked to her
confdentially:
at is too bad, isn't it, that your
husband is so much more stale than
you are?'-Detroit Free Press.

They Are Used as Parachutes Rather
Than as Wings.
Out from the warmer seas fly the
flying fish, the fish of which every one
has heard, which yet none can see for
the first time without gasp of amaze
ment, without a feeling as though be-
holding the miraculous, the fish which
has given rise to more untruthfu sto-
ries than any other fish in all the seas
Undoubtedly the flying fish has wings
like bird; undoubtedly it flies, yet not
as bird. 1t does not flap the wing
like. pectoral fins on which it is up
borne, nor, once launched in the air.
can it change it's course by any move
ment of its wings until it dips again
to the water Yet it will pass ship
making ten knots in the hour and trav-
ell in the air as far as 500 feet at
time
Astounding, indeed, is the sight of
shoal of flying fish taking to the air,
skimming far over the surface when
the sea is calm, leaping high over
great waves when gales blow. Fish
seem ludicrously out of their element
in the air, but that fish should fly is
not really more wonderful than that
some animals and birds. like the otter
or the penguin, dive and swim to per-
lection.
The flying fish's fms are really para,
chutes tc support and steady it's body
rather than wings to propel it. The
lobe of the tail gives propulsion to the
body as it leaves the water. flying
fish measures about foot in length
and its long, transparent pectoral fins
reach almost to the tail; but, though
very large when expanded, they can
be folded up very neatly. It's fight is
short and intermittent. and it must
needs continually dip into the sea to
give itself fresh start.-Pearson's

sNEAkED OVER THE BORDER.
Gang of Chinese Captured by the
Officers.


Donald Stewart seems to be wanted
by the United States customs officers.
This, at least is the inference drawn
from an srticle which appears in the
Grand Forks New-Gazette of the 18th
inst. A column is given to the effort
of r. VAIL the United States customs
inspector, in his work in capturing a
part of a gang of IS Chinese, whom
it is claimed, Stewart had accompan-
led across the line.
It is state that Customs Officer Vail
fired upon a bunch of Chinese who
were just inside the United States
near the Canadian line, when a white
man ran back to the Canadian Dor
der. After crossing it, the article
states, he waited for Vail, who found
upon coming up that this man was
none other than former Customs Off
Ger Stewart, whom he had succeeded
about month ago. Since then Stew
art has not been located on American
soil.
Vail captured five Chinese of
whom one was Sam Sing, who runs a
laundry at Cascade and who it is sup
posed aided the Chinese in crossing.
1t is believed that Sing will be tried
for aiding in the smuggling of Chi
nese across the border, ard may be
sent to McNeils island.
Only few days ago there were
several customs and Chinese and emf
grant inspectors in Spokane, who, it
is understood, knew something of the
trouble, but who would say nothing
about it.
The following is portion of the
article printed in the Grand Forks
Gazette:
R. Vail, the United States Gus
toms officer stationed at Cascade, has
been making important arrests of
Cinnamon while attempting to cross
into American territory. Cascade has
long been regarded as a rendezvous
