WHO WAS THE GENTLEMAN7

Automobiles and cattIemen Have an
Encounter on the Road.
A farmer named Ed Armstrong was
driving bunch of cattle along the
road near Salinas the other day when
couple of automobile enthusiasts
came tearing along at tremendous
speed. Armstrong feared that his
cattle would become frightened and
stampede, so he held up his hand and
asked the Automobiles to wait until
he could get his herd in shape. The
men only laughed at him and contin-
ued going at full speed, defying Arm
strong to catch them. He applied the
spurs to his horse, took down his RI
alta from the saddle and was swinging
the loop preparatory to landing it over
their heads when the courage Of the
occupants of the car waned and the
machine was brought to a sudden
stop. The drivers waited patiently
while the cattlemen drove his herd to
one side Of the road and, after thank
ing them kindly, he allowed them to
pass, without even so much as refer
ring to the ugly disposition they had
shown until he had forced them to
wait-San Francisco Arnonaut.

Science and Invention.


No species of flower shows more

The greatest searchlight in the

Schickert of Nuremburg,s Germany,

That fishes and frogs may have
tuberculosis has been demonstrated
in the Pasteur institute in Paris. This
is no cause for alarm, however, for
they are found only in the intestinal
organs, would be killed in cooking
anyway, and bacilli reared in a cold
blooded animal could not thrive If
transferred to man.
It is a curious fact that flies will
not pass through netting, even though

SOME HOT WATER FISH.

Remarkable Species That Thrive in
Hot Liquid.
MarceHin Pellet, French writer,
who has recently returned from Qua
temala describes a curious species of
fish, the Pacilia dorri, which he found
in the boiling lake of Amatitlan. It
passes it's days literally Gin continual
hot water" So hot is the water of
this lake that it is said to thrust ones
hand in it means scalded fingers. Ebul-
lition is, however, somewhat tenn
pered, as the really boiling water
rises to the surface, leaving a tenn
perature of IS degrees centigrade at
the level, where the fish are found,
which is even then sufficiently warm
for cold blooded creatures like fish.
Frank Buchland states in one of his
works that the naturalist Brossounet
found by experiments that some fresh
water fish would live for several days in
water so hot that human being could
not keep his hand in it for a minute.
De Saussure, the Swiss scientist,
discovered living eels in the hot
springs of AK, the temperature of
which averages 113 degrees Fahren-
heit. Humboldt also saw living fish
thrown up in a volcano in South
America.

JEFFERSON AND THE DUCKS.

Actors Humorous Acknowledgement
Of the Misdeeds.
"Joe Jefferson" said an artistic
friend who recently paid him visit
at his summer home on .Buzzard's
Bay, *beguiles his vacation by fishing,
shooting, painting, reading, and CORE
spondence. He has a studio fitted up
over his stable and passes many hours
there indulging his passion for sketch
ing and painting, at which he has be-
come an expert, although he modestly
disavows any merit to his work.
While there the friend unearthed a
canvas turned against the wall, upon
which was painted pair of ducks
The work was Of such rare excellence
that he was surprised into asking Mr.
Jefferson if he painted them
Mr.. Jefferson looking up from his
easel, hesitated moment, and then,
in his slow, gentle Rip Van Wrinkle
tone, answered.:
'Yes-I not only shot them, but I
then added insult to injury by paint
ing hem."-New York Times.

NO CAUSE TO WORRY.

Destruction Of Boston Of No Partic-
ular Interest to New Yorker.
Ex-Sheriff tom" Dunn last week
met Arthur Porter, who had just re-
turned from spending his vacation in
Boston and who was recounting the
many changes in that Hub of the
Universe" since his former visit there.
Among other things he said:
"Scientists there have made an
alarming discovery. They declare that
the land on which Boston stands is
slowly sinking into the sea-
Dunn politely smothered a yawn.
Irritated that so exciting bit of in
formation should be so indifferently
received and unaware that the story
had already appeared in the New
York papers, Porter continued:
doesn't that strike you as interest
ing?"

The Apeists in Society.

To ape anything is sign of vaculty
Of mind; to ape the follies of those
above you is one of the most offensive
forms Of vulgarity. Yet we see the
follies of the uppermost classes stead
lily initiated all down the different sets
of society, and the popularity of ev-
cry book dealing with peerage is a
proof, it one were needed, of what
absorbing interest our failings are to
the public. There is nothing we will
not write upon to crafty this vul-
gar curiosity; nothing is in too bad
taste if by it's publication we can raise
little of the "needful.'" Our scan
dals, our intrigues, our inane CONVEX
sation, our bills and even our menus
are recorded for the benefit of q pub.

BURGLAR Proof Express Car,

With the large quantities of valu-
ables which the express companies
transport about the country it Is not
to be wondered at that they should
be wiling to spend considerable money
to make their cars as near proof
against hold-ups and robberies as pos
sible. The proceeds of a single haul
by a gang OF bandits have frequently
been great enough to pay for equip
ping number of cars with the latest
ideas to protect the messengers and
contents of the car, and as there still
remains possibility of robberies OF
this class in the future, an Oklahoma
man has designed the car whose de-
tails are presented in the drawing,
hoping with this equipment to frus.

cipal feature of this apparatus is q

COFFEE AS A STIMULANT.

An Antidote for Alcohol and Is
Otherwise Distinctly Beneficial.
One OF the highest authorities
among medical publications, the Lon
don Lancet, gives a few words of ad-
vice and comfort to the lovers of cof-
fee and says that this most popular
OF all drinks is not harmful.
AS an after dinner drink it believes
coffee is distinctly beneficial. Coffee
also is an antedote fer alcohol. The
dyspeptic, it says, should not drink
coffee or tea, because both are injuri-
GUS to weak stomachs.
AS substitute for the hot drink
however, coffee jelly is recommended
In this form it can be taken into any
stomach without injury, provided
there is no stinting of the quantity
of coffee in the jelly. 1t has cooling
effect, assuages the thirst and is gen.
orally beneficial
Coffee, the Lancet declares, is a.
stimulant, like alcohol, but, unlike
alcohol, 1t arouses muscular energy

IRVING FORGOT HIs LINES.
No Ono But the Prompter Discovered
: 80 the Mistake, However. <~<.

Mo Ono But the Prompter Discovered
-, the Mistake, However.
The best Of actors are sometimes
embarrassed by loss of memory. They
forget lines with which they are per-
fectly familiar, and at critical times,
too. Then the services of the prompt
er are appreciated. The following in
cident is related of Sir Henry Irving:
At a recent all-star performance of
"The Merchant of Venice" Sir Henry
and Ellen Terry were so overcome at
appearing together once more in a
tavorlte Shakespearean comedy that
both forgot their lines.
Miss Terry improvised, as is her
custom. Sir Henry, however, filed up
the pauses in Shylock's lines with
Avs" and "Ughs," to the delight of
the audience and his own evident an
guish. At LAST, in paroxysm of in
spiration, he leaped into the trial
scene with a long speech from his
role in Dante
This was too much for the actor
who was officiating in the propmter's
box, and when Sir Henry stalked
down to the footlights the prompter
whispered, sepulchrally: "Good heav.
ems, sir, that speech isn't in the
book"
Over the shoulder of Shylock the
eye OF the actor flashed a whitening
glance at the prompter and in stage
whisper Sir Henry said: "Aw-aw-aw
well, sir, it ought to be-" and calmly
continued to recite his Dante lines.

Power Generating Street Car.

Power Generating Street Car.
The transmission of the electric cur
rent from a power plant along wires
to propel street cars has become a
common affair, and the lay mind sell
dom bothers itself with the problems
which had to be solved before this
was made possible. 1t seems, however,
that the limit has not yet been reach
ed, for rather peculiar idea has just
been worked out at Davenport, Eng
land, by which the cars when running
down grade return current to the
wire, thus aiding in driving the
motors on cars climbing hills or run
ming on a level. Lest the perpetual
motion enthusiast should see in this
a solution of his puzzle, let us state
that it is still necessary to operate
the power plant. but considerable
power is saved by this method which
would otherwise go to waste. The ap-
paratus is constructed so that the car
descending grade first supplies the
current generated by it's own motors
to the operation Of the brakes, and
the balance Of the current is returned
to the wire from which the car but
a short time before was receiving it's
power. AS this idea is said to be
in operation at the above named
town, it's success must be taken for
granted, and the system which has
been patented by J. S. Raworth, is
said to save considerable electric

responsible for the invention of this

instance it will save waste, while in
the other it will save time, as the
clerk can go about his business with
the assurance that when the proper

the valve will be closed without any

spiral spring controlling it's down
ward movement. At the top of the rod
a notched gauge, which can be ad-
listed to operate at any desired point
The jug is placed on the platform and
counterbalanced; then the gauge is
set, the valve opened and the valve rod
hooked to hinged bar, which is de-
pressed by the gauge. It is obvious
that as the liquid flows into the jug
and the weight increases the vertical
rod will fall gradually until the gauge
strikes the hinged bar. AS the weight
of liquid still further increases the
bar will descend and operate the valve
closing rod.
The inventor of this valve closing
device is Charles Simon, OF Avilla,
Ind.
