New Use For Electricity.

The workmen in the great electric
power houses have use for electricity
to which the attention of physicians
might be called. This use was exem-
plified in striking way the other night
in one of the uptown houses.
One of the workmen hobbled in Oh a
crutch. The foot that he did not walk
on was wrapped in 8 white towel.
II got needle in her." he explained.
He went over to one of the big dyna-
mos, sat down on the floor Of concrete,
barred his wounded foot and then ex-
tended it to the current.
Il ran this needle in this morning, -
he said, as he sat waiting. ut disap-
peared somewhere or other. I couldn't t
find it; the doctor couldn't find it; I
thought I'd let the current see if ii
could find it, the same as the other
fellows do when they get needles lost
inside EN-"
The man waited. Five minutes, ten
minutes passed. Suddenly his foot
twitched and he gave grunt Of pain.
The lost needle, drawn forth by the
power Of the current, protruded half
inch from his instep. He readily drew
it out the rest of the way with his
fingers. Philadelphia Record.

The Feats Of Chicken Fanciera.

The American Standard of Perfec-
ton, as drafted and copyrighted by the
American Poultry Association, con-
tains the names of 116 varieties Of
fowls, 115 Of which are due to the de-
velopment of man. God made only
one--a homely, wild thing, which made
it's home in the jungle along with the
rest of primeval creation. By intelli-
gent. breeding fanciers have produced
fowls of all sizes, from the diminutive
bantam to the mammoth bronze tur-
key: one tiny bit Of feathered vanity,
weighing only a few ounces, and the
other a bulky fowl weighing from
forty to sixty pounds-as much as a
half-grown boy. Results equally Won
derful have been accomplished in color
effects. There are varieties in red,
black, brown and white, with nearly
all possible combinations, beside buff
and Andalusian blue. The fanciers
have shown that they can lace, stripe
spangle or bar the feathers OF theil
birds in any way to satisfy their indi
vidual fancy. In fact, about all they
have left undone is to put their initials
on the feathers Of their birds.-Leslie'f

ter than anything else, unless it's mel

and most Of them are also partial to
raw asparagus. The fact is, you might
run through list Of all the dishes that
find place on an up-to-date menu and
you find that some of our patients have
acquired taste for them. Tlis cpl
cnrean appetite may denote aristo

See! what gallant horsemen ride
from the poplar's dappled shade,
In a swift, answering rank;
Fleet as flows the crested tide,
Sun on belt and naked blade,
Empty scabbard at each hankis
Now, Castrillon, hold your place
Lest that waves relentless flow
Sweep you from the trembling plain,
Periured Cos, what hope Of grace:
.Ye who keep the Alamo
Wonder and rejoice again.
Crash! Brave stecd and rider fall

Ringing drops the nerveless sword;
Crumbling bends the advancing wall.

Cheer! They close their ragged line.
Cheer! Red spur to spur they ride;
Cheer! They meet the battles brunt
And their keen blades brightly shine,
As with long unstaying stride,
Keep they still a steady front.
Like froth the wind has torn,
Half to right and half to left,
Falls the Mexican array;
As vessel, tempest-borne,
Dashing through the crimson cleft
The invaders held their way.

the heaviest rain storms Of recent
years has Just visited Western South
Dakota, starting with a terrific thun
der storm. the first of the season fol-
the Northern Black Hills. It grad
ually resolved itself to a steady down
pour, which lasted over twenty-fouI
hours without break. All the water
courses are running bank full. and but
for the fact that snow fell instead OF
rain in the regions Of greater eleva
tion floods would undoubtedly have
been produced.
The rain was of inestimable benefit
to the country. which has received the
greatest soaking in years. Reports
from the cattle range are that this
storm has spared stockmen the neces
sity Of moving their herds. The water
holes and streams were dry and grass
was backward on account of the
drouth. All vegetation has been giver
a decided start.
