that negroes cannot b, enlisted for crast de-
Tense service without special act of Con-

iish such garrisons on tt South Atlantic

cision OF the Judge advocate since it is held
that the negro is equal in all respects to the
white man. It is wonder, toe, that the de-
cision was allowed to be promulgated before

Killing u King Cobra.

Tales Of tiger shooting in India are
common enough, but one does not hear
much about king cobra hunting. a.
by two natives, he went to spot
where pair Of king cobras were
known to be. On arrival at the place
was made to get under q basket,
the meshes Of which were too small
for king cobra to put his head
through. While he was beneath this
basket one of the snakes came out and
was shot with arrows by natives. The
other cobra then appeared and endeav-
ored to overturn the coop. Describing
the incident the writer says: "The ter
ror of that moment | cannot express.
What il it should overturn the basket?

British Baronetcies.

one in the house of commons who is
prepared to vote Invariably as his par
ty whips tell him can receive baron
etcy If he is sufficiently persistent in

tribute to the party funds, but If he

A Vigorous Preacher.

Beginning his sermon one Sunday
muscular Scotch minister said that
In every congregation there were gem
orally three kinds of people. Some
were very worthy men and women.
Others were just middlings and might
be better than they were, but others
were actual devils. He did not IN
tend in this discourse to speak to the
first kind, who We're already good
Christians and not greatly requiring
either advice or censure. The second
class would be all the better for some
plain speaking, but their case was not
SO urgent as that of the third class,
whom he had spoken Of as positive
deeyils. ITO them," be said, 81 mean
to speak" Then. rolling up the right
sleeve of his coat and stretching out
his clinched fist in front OF him, he
said, Now, ye devils"

coyotes it was different. They never
maka friends with or lose their fear of

bic the prairie wolf, but are much
smaller and of browner color. Their
fur is also longer and the tail more
bushy. They vary considerably in col

Sir William Ramsay Declares Ameri-
cans Slow in Research.
New York, Sept. 12.-The refreshing
infor1na ton that American manufac-
turers are "too slow" as compared with
their German and English rivals comes
from Sir William Ramsay, foremost
chemist of the day. His present visit
to America is the first in twenty years.
Today he starts for the west with a
distinguished gathering of foreign
scientists to explore and investigate
under the pilotage of the New York
section of the Society of Chemical In
dustry. Sir William is in favor of a
wider scope for students in chemistry.
Manufacturers and business men
of America are not sufficiently alert to
take advantage Of the recent discover
les of science he declared after
visit to the great chemical works in
and around New York. 1.-The majority
Of them do not make it practice to
read scientific journals or to familiar
ize themselves with the latest trend of
scientific thought. English manufac-
turers are far ahead of American in
this respect. and Germany shows a
clean pair of heels to BOTH
Future of Rad;um Mystery.
On the subject of radium, on which
he is authority, Sir William said:
"All previous calculations in science
are likely to be upset by radium. We
may soon be compelled to revise some
of the theories of physics that are now
as cardinal. Nobody can tell
The future open to the diligent labora-
tory student is fraught with mysteries.
One thing is certain-nobody is likely
to discover mine Of radium"
