Largest Searchlight.

A German firm has completed a
searchlight that is said to be the larg-
~st in the world Some idea of the
great Illuminating power of this in
strument may be gauged from the
fact that it is of 326,ooo,ooo candle
power. If it were possible to set the
giant upon a hill or tower 900 feet
high it's rays could be easily detect
ed seventy or eighty miles away In
deed, it is almost impossible to tell
how far its rays could penetrate, as
no actual demonstration has been
made. The searchlight is fitted with
an Iris shutter. 1t has diameter Of
six feet six inches and was adopted
in order to make the projestor light
tight at any momnent desired. 1t is
operated in much the same way as
shutter in modern cameras. The
leaves Of the shutter slide with hx-
ed diaphragm located in the axis Of
the ray of light.
The whole device is electricity con-
,trolled by two levers. One Of these
controls the motor mounted in the
base of the searchlight, which oper-
sates the projestor in vertical direc-
ton through train of gears; the 9TH
>er starts or stops the electric motor
which controls the horizontal move
'ments of the beam of light. This
same firm built the 100000 candle
power searchlight recently installed
in the Heligoland Lighthouse.

Birds and Their Songs.
.,Harpers's Magazine.

Harpers's Magazine.
1t may we'll be doubted if birds are
rsnusical connisseurs, or have any
thing like human appreciation OF
.3heir own or of each others songs.
My reason for thinking so is this:
II have heard bobolink with defec-
tive instrument, so that it's song was
broken and inarticulate in parts, and
vet it sang with as much apparent
;ioy and abandon as any of its fel-
flows T have also heard hermit
thrush with a similar defect or I'M
spedinent, and yet, too, appeared to
sing entirely to its own satisfaction.
1t would be very interesting to know
If these poor singers found mates as
readily as their more gifted brothers.
IF they did, the Darwinian theory OF
Sexual selection in such matters,
according to which the finer songster
would carry of the female, would fall
TO the ground. Yet it is certain that
TT is during the mating and breeding
season that these song combats" oc-
cur, and the favor of the female
would seem to be the matter in dis
pute. Whether or not it be express
sive of actual Jealousy or rivalry, we
have no other words to apply to it.

KAFFIRS AND SNUFF.
A Grave Breach of Manners to Take
A Pinch Standing up.

In South Africa among the ka,nr*
snuk taking is universal. and it is a
crave breach OF manners 10 ask your
most for pinch when you are stand
ing up.
The reason for this is found in the
freacherous practices Of former times.
When one man wished to kill another
4 favorite device was to ask him tor
a pinch of snuff, and then, whlle the
unsuspecting victim was fumbling for
his snufbox, the murderer had a
splendid oportunity AS this trick for
taking a man at disadvantage be-
came familiar it naturally grew to
be a point of good manners to make
your request when squatting on the
ground, when clearly you were IN
tending no evil.
The Kafir snuff is made from crude
tobacco grown at every kraal, which
is powdered up and mixed with the
ash of the aloe, carefully ground on a
stone and damped. 1t is always eti-
uuette to ask for snuff, and the donor
grants your request grudg!ngly, lest
he should be suspected of pressing

Iowa State
Convention

lASHA NEEz
DIES MONIES, Ia, May 4.--The
democratic state convention for the
selection of delegates at large and
district delegates to the st. Louis con.
vention is in session here today. The
outlook is for a close contest between
the supporters and opponents Of Will
liam r. Hearst. The Hearst people,
recognizing the political Importance
Of Iowa, set to work early to organize
the state and so thoroughly did they
do their work that they obtained a
victory for the time being at least
over the conservative element by hay.
ing an early date set for the state con-
vention. The Hearst supporters in
Iowa are practically identical with
those of Bryan, while the opponents
include substantially all those who OPP
pose Bryan and his ideas. The anti
Hearst people are not supporting any
one for the presidential nomination,
but are bending their energies solely
to defeating the movement to have
the state convention instruct for the
New York newspaper man. Prior to
the assembling Of the convention to
day the Hearst faction expressed con-
fidence in the result and claimed that
there Is no question but that the del
egation from Iowa to the st. Louis
convention will be instructed for their
candidate.

ASSA LIFTED BY 4 TRAMP.
Woman About to Give Him Food When
 He Attacks Her.

Rochester, N. H., May 9.-Mrs. Arthur w. Richardson, wife of one of the best known residents of this city, was vic iously assaulted while alone in her house to-day by tramp whose appar- ent motive was robbery. After felling the woman by blow on the back of the neck, the intruder bound her arms behind her and forcing handkerchief into her mouth, left her unconscious, in which condition she was discovered by her husband upon his return home to- night. Mrs. Richardson was revived sufficiently to give a few details of the assault, but later lapsed into uncon- sciousness, and her condition is seri- ous
 Nothing was missing from the house and the police incline to the belief that the assailant was frightened away.
 Mrs. Richardson said that a tramp came to the door and asked for bread. She had raised her arms in the act |of taking the requested food from shelf when the man crept up behind and struck her. She fell to the floor unconscious.

BIBLE AND IMPOSSIBILITIES
REV. DR. BRIGGS, OPINION OF
 THE QUESTION

Declares the Religious Value of the
 Book Is Greater When Stripped of
 Them--Nothing More Absurd Than
 for the Theologian to be AfrniI of
 the Truth--No srhi sm in iscal Truth.
 New York, May 9.-Rev Charles A. Briggs, of the faculty of Union Theolog- ical seminary, in an address on "The Higher Theological Education" before the seminary to-day said, among other things:
 Ecclesiastical domination is the greatest foe of theology.
 "The peril of ecclesiastical domina- ton is not dangerous in this country to any extent except through the or ganized ministers and theological schools.
 The Christian ministry is no longer what 1t ought to be, where the best ed- ucated man in the community is the minister. The public estimate of the ministry dIlQ luGa CuuICll uGCtiftcS WDCtl the congregation is better educated than the minister, We must have a much higher education than is given in the theological seminaries.
 .'It is ompossible to believe that the greater numbers of the world, the hea- then, are doomed to eternal damnation. We have an enlarged view of our world and if is true that the other worlds are inhabited we must adopt our theology to them.
 The religious value of the Bible is greater when it is stripped of inpossi- bilities. How much greater is God if he did not live in indefinite idleness be- fore creating the world in six days. There is nothing more absurd than for the theologian to be afraid of the truth.
 'gFhere is no schism in the real truth. The systematic theology of the future will not be denominational, but con- structed by the inductive and general methods of organized theology
