1t is not generally known that the
British bayonet, feared the world
over, is not an English invention, but
comes from France. 1t was one of
those numerous instances of neces-
sity being the mother of invention.
In one of the French wars the Basque
soldiers ran out of ammunition. The
enemy were at hand, so their officers
babe them tie their long knives to
their muskets. They did so, and the
weapon thus made was successfully
used to put to rout a charge of cav
airy. The battle thus fought was
near Rayonne, and so we have the
name bayOnet.

FIX COLOR AT BIRTH.
COIOred Woman 10 he Made Subject of
Hospital Experiment..

Because of an experiment of Dr. j.
W. Hill, of South Bend, one of the
leading physicians and surgeons of
Indiana. who seeks to prevent an in
FAINT born of negro parents from re-
verting back to the old type of the
colored race. the attention of the
scientific world is expected 10 he fixed
on South Bend during the next few
months. All arrangements, it is uH-
derStoOd, have been completed for
DIR. Hills solution of the color scheme
of the human race, and with the as
sistance of DIR. George l.. Hager, al
so of that city, DR.. Hill expects to
be successful. \ cOlored woman has
consented to act as the patient, and
she will enter the hospital as soon
as the rooms are made ready for the
scientific event.
According TO DR.. Hill, the Negroes
skin is more sensitive than that of
any other human being, and for that
reason more pigment is thrown out
to protect him under the climatic
conditions in which his fOrefathers
were born, the intense heat of the
tropics making this necessary. BY
preventing fermentation DR.. Hill be-
lieves the child of cofored parents,
which is generally born white, turn
ing dark under the suns rays, Will
become whittier than the Caucasian
race.
This is following the idea of DR..
Fenson, the Norwegian scientist,
who found by putting chameleon
under violet rays that the pigment or
throwing off of color is not of such
marked extent as under the ordinary
light rays.
For this reason red light as actinic
rays will be employed in making the
experiment, for the reason that they
have a subduing effect and are not rays
that irritate and prevent pigmenta-
ton. \ room in a hospital win be
provided which will be completely
furnished in red, walls, ceiling, floor
ing, and furniture. Bed clothing and
curtains are to be of that color, and
patient, attending physicians, and
nurses will wear red gowns, while
the only light will come through red
globed lamps. Not the faintest par
ticle of any contrasting light win be
permitted in the room.

RECEIVE GOOD PAY.
Cattle Buyers for the Big Packin.
Houses May Wen he Termed
Kings of the stock Yards

Some of the cattle buyers of the big
slaughter houses receive as salaries
from $4,000 to $1,000 per year, and
some, it is said, as high as $25 900 per
year. The cattle buyer cannot hope to
command such a salary at one jump, re-
marks our sprightly little contempo-
rary. the Arizona Cattleman. He must
advance gradually and demonstrate that
he is earning his money each day. A
daily account and record itkept with him.
He buys a bunch of steers, they are
slaughtered, and he is furnished each
day with a report showing just what
they cost his company net. If he pays
too much, they are dear, and he must
explain the why's and wherefores. Many
mistakes and bad judgment are not
necessary before he is advised that his
services are dispensed with. He must
be able TO judge the amount on the hoof,
know what it will kill out, and that he
made the purchase at the lowest price
and with good profit to the company.
He cannot equal up, his purchases for
day make bargain on one bunch and
pay too much for the other. The system
is complete and exacting; each purchase
must speak for itself-each tub must
stand on its own bottom.-Midland

FENCE RAIL PHILOSOPHY.

Opportunities are often handmade.
The small tree often bears the best
fruit.
No job is impossible to a willing
worker.
If you want to get at the kernel first
crack the shell.
If all work was as easy as lying ev-
erybody would be kept busy.
The best time to read a note or
mortgage is before you sign it.
It's crackin' good hand that sticks
to his work like pig to a rough fence
in flea time.
In searching for knowledge a man
frequently finds out something he
didn't care to know.
It's the findin' out of some things we
don't want to know that makes the get
tim of knowledge disagreeable.- Farm

Weak Point I'm Wise Counsel

How to meet the attack of bull is
one of those problems which all anglers
would like to have solved. Given a fair
start. and a safe retreat within easy
reach, the majority of men make run
for it. But there are times when no
such retreat is available. One angling
author says that you should catch the
bull by the tall and belabor him with
the handle of your landing net. should

of all was this man at all likely to

or no other miner would for a mo
ment consider such proposition.
1t would instantly place premium

Again, it Is doubtful If at the time
the Homestake was purchased there
were three $40 gold pieces in the
whole Black Hills. Gold dust was
then the purchasing medium. as all
oldtimers know. With gold dust so
plentiful, why should man take the
pains and trouble to file up gold
coins? He only had to procure gold
dust, which was then In circulation,
sprinkle that in the mill aud save
the trouble Of filing up coin.
Furthermore. the Homestake did
not sell for $50. 900. George Hearst,
j. b. Hasgin and Lloyd Tevis paid
for the lomestake claim. a patch Of
less than ten acres, $4,000. For
