Johnny Learns to Hem and Knit.

(Clipped from a New York paper by a parent of four children, attendants of pub lie schools, who thinks the poem Is ap- plicable to local conditions.) Since little Johnny went to school
 And studied under MaXwells rule, He's learned to hem and darn and knit
 And has pretty sewing kit He's learned to paint yellow rose
 And how to ornament his clothes, How to make pretty moonlight scenes
 By Splashing ink on little screens. And Johnny has a little book
 Which tells the dear child how to cook; You might not think it. but it's true,
 He's graduated in beef stew. You ought to hear how Johnny sings
 Those lovely. noisy Wagner things, He sings all classic music grand,
 Those tuneless things none understand. When Pa comes home from work at night He teaches Johnny how to write, And how to cipher, and to spell,
 But what Pa says-I shall not tell.

HORSES EATEN IN PARIS.
Frenchmen Have No Prejudice Against the Flesh of these
 Animals,

New York Tribune.
 The year 1904 will be memorable in culi- nary art as the first in which horsetesh obtained from the city of Paris the official recognition as legitimate human food Hitherto horse butchers were found in the outskirts of the town, and special-almost ndestine-slaughter-ho were util- ized for them. The abattoirs at La Vii Iette were closed to horses, but now, for the first time, a regular horse slaughter house has been installed in Paris. It is expected that this will greatly increase the consumption of horseflesh in Paris. Last year no less than 36,O0O horses were eaten ia the city limits. A few years ago barely 5000 horses were brought to the butchers. The price is 50 per cent cheap CT than beef. Much of the meat is used for sausages.
 The price of old horses, which, singu- larly enough, are said to make the best meat. has risen. from $D to $50 apiece. The butchers buy the aged, broken-down animals from the cab companies and put them out at grass for a few weeks and then they are taken to the slaughter houses Paris horse meat is darker in color than beef. Amateurs say that 1t has the delicate taste of spring chicken and the aroma of goose fat. Horsefesh. is. however, seldom eaten in the form Of steaks of roast joints. It makes excel lent pot au feu and palatable stews, with potatoes and tripe-the tripe being pro- duct of the horses stomach. The saul sages in Paris, especially the hard, cold dark-red sort that one finds in the night restaurants, are almost all made of horse-
 flesh. The new horse slaughter house is to have a bust of Dmochaux, who hrst recommended horsefiesh as a regular stock food for Parisians, On a tablet will also be inscribed the bill of fare Of the first horsef1esh dinner given in Paris at the Restaurant Velour, near the Pal 1is Royal. There will also be a portrait ot ls- idore Goeffroy Saint Hlaire, who' as long ago as 1s47. used to say to his friends: Eat horse steaks cut from the hlet; they are delicious!"

SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY
New Science-.When DoSC Go MAd--Prosperity 0 Preventive of Consumption Durable Mirrors.
 Electricity Q Life-SAver,

Discovered seven years ago, radio-acti- yity is now declared by pr. Frederick Soddy to have reached the stage of an independent science. quite distinct from chemistry and physics Explaining the property, Professor Rutherford and this author regard the radlo-elements as slowly disintegrating, the change being marked by the expulsion of rays, and the disintegration proceeding by leaps through several stages. The energy given out. enormous compared with that involved in any previously known change, is derived from the store of internal energy of the changing atom. This view is looked upon as a safe working hypo- thesis, and 1t does not in any way upset the atomic theory of chemistry.
 A common notion concerning rabies is that it Is most prevalent in 'dog days. pr. Dawbarn cites statistics of the United States Department of Agriculture as showing that 14.066 cases were thus distributed by month: January. 943; February lOi5; March, 9G0; April, 1923; May. 1.419 June, 1,467; July, 1,435; August, 1.29i: September. 1.145; October. 965; November. 93S; December, 1.137.
 An English medical man points out that in the last ten years consumption has increased in countries where economic conditions have become worse, as in Ireland. but decreased where the conditions have improved. Not only must infection be destroyed, but it is to be remembered that environment, light, pure air, good food, cOntentment and happiness are potent preventive agents.
 A British naturalist suggests that the destruction of animal life by heavy rains has received too little attention. The mortality among insects and all small animals is certainly very great

In a recent successful | attempt. the galvanic current was applied to a PhiladelpnIa man for one hour, re- ducing an aneurism that extended three inches above the base of the breast bone and was 1-2 inches wide. pr.

In fifteen minutes more signs of returning life ap- peared pulsation of the heart and breath ing being normal ten minutes later. Considering the possible influence of alcohol upon human evolution, Dr. Harry Campbell assumes that such civilizations as those of Babylon and Egypt may date back 3O0O0 years and that agriculture by migratory tribes may extend back 3O,- GOO years more, but concludes that the use of alcohol as q beverage has not been known more than 10000 years. He finds no reason to believe that, as was suS- gested some years ago. the discovery of feImented liquor gave the first civilizing quickening to the brain of ape-man.

 The beer poisoning epidemic of Mar chester. England, has been the subject of a prolonged Government investigation. A final report shows that there were 6OoO cases of poisoning. with more than 100 known deaths, and that the arsenic was introduced into the beer by sugar or glucose that had been contaminated by the sulphuric acid used in it's man ufacture. Poisoning Tn other localities has been traced to the contamination of malt by the use of arsenlcal gas-coke in drying. Various foods are liable to contain arsenic. including golden syrup and treacle, substances containing glu- | cose. various extracts of malt. prepared | and infant foods, and yeast cakes.

CANS WINS ON FOUL.

San Francisco, Nov. Jimmy
Britt of California lost the lightweight
championship of the world last night
when he fouled Joe Cans. He had
sent Cans to his knees in the fifth
round and then, losing his head, gave
him a vicious punch and Referee
Graney promptly awarded the fight to
Cans OF a foul. The same thing had
happened in the fourth round. Cans
had dropped to his knees to escape
a blow that did not land. Britt
struck at him, but Graney would not
allow the foul.
In the nexe round, however, Ora
ney very promptly recognized the foul
fighting. 1t looked almost from the
start as if it were Britt's fight. He
actually outboxed Cans and landed
blow after blow. In the fourth round
it was apparent that Cans vas scared
and barring a foul the fight was
Britt's to a certainty.

Concerning Your Home.

From the number of inquiries it ap'
pears that the object of the Billings
Building and Loan Association has not
been fully understood.
Slime people have thought that the
association built houses and then sold
them on the installment plan.
While that is practically the result,
the method must be viewed from an
other standpoint.
The association is not a charitable
OrganizatiOn-it is a business con-
Germ, intended to make money in three
ways: First, by providing a safe in
vestment for local capital; second,
by saving money for local home
builders; third, by retaining both the
earnings and savings in Ballings.
1t is composed of local bankers,
professional and business men, who
will profit Indirectly by the home use
OF the money used.
It's objects are to assist the man.
w~ith-a-family, and the man-who-is-
going-to-get a family to get a home
for that family. Assist mind you,
not "'give" him a home.
That assistance is given only to
those who show themselves worthy.
1t is a plain business proposition
whose new methods make it philan-
in effect.

BRAVE MAN DIED DEFENDING

WITHOUT ANY BOOTY
Cashier Middaugh WantonIy Murder.
ed in Broad Observation-Disclosures
Escape-Posse in Pursuit.

Cody, Wyo., Nov. 2.-(Special.)-
Once more has the city been thrown
into a condition of excitement by an
audacious daylight robbery. This
time the excitement is at highest
pitch, for murder has been commit
ted and a brave man wantonly killed
for attempting to do his duty.
At 1920 o'clock yesterday afternoon
two men, not disguised, entered the
First National bank and with drawn
%revolvers compelled two of the clerks
and a couple of customers to hold up
their hands. The order to do likewise
was given to r. o. Middaugh, cashier.
Instead of complying, Mr.. Middaugh
r%etreated into the private room OF
the bank and thence emerged onto
the street, followed by mt Of the rob-
bers, with whom he grappled. Be-
cause of the resistance he offered he
was shot through the breast. Freeing
himself, Mr.. Middaugh started to run,
followed by three shots, one of which
struck him in the back. The last
wound caused him to fall and he died
almost instantly.
wake Ineir Escape.
Without waiting to take any of the
money for which they had come, the
robbers mounted their horses, hitched
neal the door of the bank, and es-
capped. Within Is minutes thereafter
a large posse had been organized and
started in pursuit.
At 7:4O o'clock the pursuers came
in sight of the outlaws 80 miles from
here and the two parties exchanged
shots at a distance of about 400
yards. No one was hit and the rob-
bers continued their flight, heading
for the Owl Greek range Of noun
tains, where they are now supposed
to be hiding. Citizens and officers
are continuing the hunt and it is
confidently expected that the desper-
ADDE'S will be caught or killed. The
latter is regarded as most likely to
occur, for it is thought that they will
not surrender.
Was Married Man.
The murdered cashier was married
and the father of three children. Be-
fore his removal to Cody he resided
at Wheatland, this state, and was for
merly engaged in the newspaper bust
ness.
