KING EDWARDS STRAY DOG.
An Irish Terrier That Has Become q Great Favorite with
 EngLand's Ruler.

Dignity, pomp and etiquette are particularly strong points with Ed ward VII, says a London correspond ent of the London Herald, and woe be- tide any ight-minded subject who 0verlooks the smallest detail of dress or deportment in the royal presence that is, woe betide all such subjects save one. The exception is Jack, stray Irish terrier which strolled into Marlborough house not long ago, adopted the king without leave or cere- mony, took charge of his majesty forthwith and has helped to run the empire ever since.
 It can be said without exaggeration that no one item of the business of the king of England gets so much att tention daily8as the care of Jack. His food and exercise are personally su- pervised by his royal comrade and the general question of his health and con- duct are matter of personal concern to the king.

HEAD DEADLY WEAPON.
So Declared by q West Virginia Judge In 8 Case of Assault
 and Battery.

According to ruling in the circuit court at Welch, McDowell county, w. Va, a negro's head is considered "a dangerous and deadly weapon says 8 report from that section. Frank Mar tin brought suit for $2,ooo against James Knox; a prominent attorney at Welch, for dama ges sustained by being pounded with a spaiifsof steel knucks. Martin is a colored man and has a head of abnormal proportions. The stesti- mony in the case was that Martin be- came incensed at the attorney, while the latter was in his place of business, and that the negro bowed low and started to ''butt" the attorney out of his shop.
 The attorney swotie on the stand that he regarded the negro's head as "a dan- gerous and deadly weapon,' and that to defend himself and probably save his life hesdealt him few blows with steel knucks. Evidence was adduced which went to show that Martin had at differ. ent times "butted" people>eu of his shop. The judge gave a verdict in favor of the defendant, ruling that un- der the circumstances he regarded the negro's head as dangerous and dead- ly weapon" and that the attorney act ed in self-defense.

Domestac Wireless Telexrap1,.

Marconi believes that at some fu- ture time-he will not fix date for it. wireless te1e@aphy will become available for domestic and office use, thus performing the functions al- 1otted to the telephone. He has al- ready made experiments which con- vince him that it will be possible, with the aid of small models, or min iatures, of his sending apparatus, as now erected on gigantic scale, at Poldhu and elsewhere, to transmit messages from the interior of rooms which can be received in other rooms in the same city, or in the neighbor
 ing towns. The walls of the houses will form no obstacle but one of the chief problems will be that of prop CT attuning, of the instruments to prevent interference of waves, and to secure privacy for the messages.

THE AZTEC CALENDAR.
Curious Relic in the City of Mexico That Was Carved Over Four
 Centuries Ago.

s F
 One of the curiosities of all ages is the City of Mexico. It is the Aztec, calendar, carved in 1512. While being carted to it's destination it broke down q bridge and fell to the bottom of the lake in which the city was built, kill ing priests and people. With great difficulty it was raised out of the wa ter. With other objects of heather worship it was afterward buried in the marsh, as the best waysto get rid of it, and there it lay hidden for two cen- turies. Tn 179o the Spanish viGeroy all lowed it to be built into the cathedral on condition that it should be pre- served and exposed always in a public place. Itis now, however, held as the property of therNational museum, says the New York Press.
 The Aztec calendar is solid piece of stone, 12 feet in diameter It divides time into cycles, years and days. Fifty two years constitute a cycle; the year 365 days, with five intercalary days X wholly devoted to human sacrifices. Each year had IS months of 20 days each, and each month four weeks of five days each. The days had such names as Sea Animal, Small Bird, Monkey, Rain, etc, and each of the 20 days had different name. The points of the compass were named Reed, House, Flint and Rabbit, instead of east, west, north and south. When an Aztec said: s'I am going House on Sea Animal" he meant that he was start ing west on Monday. The month of March was called Victims Played Alive, while July's title was Garlands of Corn on the necks of Idols.

became suddenly inactive and the
proposition was failrue.
Last fall Mayor McColloch revived
the plan, announced that he couldn't t
be "called Off" and backed up by
several prominent citizens, notably
Messrs. Gleason and o. Rourke,
called on the town for subscriptions,
meeting with u generous rsponso. as
IL the case with all worthy objects
In Sumpter. The opposition carried
the fight into the board Of county
commissioners and owing to the
loyalty Of Commissioner Gleason,
supported by the chairman, Judge
Travillion aud the member from the
Pan Handle, another victory was
won. To these gentlemen are due
the credit for the Burnt River -Sump-
