Mineral Yarn.

The damage wrought by recent fires
has brought out clearly the great pre-
caution which needs to be taken to
prevent such devastation. One Of the
best preventives now in use is asbes-
tos, mineral of the hornblende fam
lily, and composed chiefly of silica, mag
nesia, alumina and ferrous oxide, a
composition that is unconsumable
The process of manufacture starts
by placing the asbestos mineral in a
chaser MILL a machine which brushes
1t and divides the fibers. It is then in
the form of snowy mass, ready for
wtnnowing, a method Of removing the
remaining small particles, which have
still chung to the fibers; this being done
by means of a blast air arrangement
which blows away the foreign matter.
1t then goes to the carding room. A
carding machine very similar to that
employed in carding wool has been
adopted for this stage of the manu-
facture. 1t is then subjected to a fin
ishing or condensing machine, where
all irregularities are eliminated, the
fibers being collected by a f1y-comb
and then converted into unspun
threads. These threads are then spun
into yarn. This brings the manufac-
ture of the material to a point where
1t is to be woven into cloth, packing
or other forms.-Philadelp Record.

An Irish Rat.

There is never a shortage of sham
rocks in Ireland. The trouble has al
ways been to get the shamrocks here.
In advance of every st. Patrick's day
William Seguine and William Lee, the
two marine Sharps at Quarantine, be-
gin to receive requests to supply their
friends with shamrOcks. Seguine and
Lee know all the officers of the big
liners and induce them to bring over
the shamrocks. They arranged this
year with the purser Of the White Star
liner Celtic to bring their annual sup
ply. The Celtic's purser made good his
promise, and on the return trip he had
aboard a goods sized box filed with
Ireland'S emblematic leaves growing in
the sod.
The purser stored this box carefully
away in the mail room of the big liner
and on Friday, when the ship arrived
Seguine and Lee clambered aboard al
Quarantine.
Did you bring the shamrocks?" both
men asked in chorus.
Sure" said the purser, land I'll &C
and get them for you"
The paper box was found just where
1t had been placed, but there was a
hole in one end. The purser sum-
moned the marine sharps and the box
was opened. There was not a sham
rock in it, The sod was there, but
that was all. The hole in the box
showed clearly enough that rat haG
devoured the shamrocks.
TT must have been an Irish rat We
shipped at Queenstown" said the pur-
ser.-NeW York Sun.

the morning these crews had left their
respective ranch houses and had ar
ranged themselves in a circle. More
than two hours We're spent in looking
after horses and strengthening weak
places in the long line The order to
advance was given, and the circle
quickly began to contract. The riders
as they advanced, would beat the sage
brush, and now and then a coyote
would be started out of his hiding
place, and would be driven by horse
men and dogs toward the center. Ow-
Ing to the feetness and adroitness Of
the coyotes, many of them managed to
get through the line: but at noon, when
the big circle had drawn within a mile
or the ravine, where a white flag on a
tall pole indicated the center Of the
grounds, it was estimated that fifty
coyotes had been rounded up. These
coyotes were all fresh and full Of fight
NOW and then one would make a break
through the lines, with dogs in hot
pursuit, and a race would result. test
ing the running and staying qualities
of the hounds. After several coyotes
had been run down in this manner
the captain waved a white flag, and
the lines closed in for the final strug-
gle.
Owing to the danger of using fire.
arms at such close quarters, no rifles,
reviewers or ShOtgunS were carried by
the hunters. Stout clubs were welded,
and as the hunters advanced on foot
the snarling coyotes in the center Of
the circle were to be dubbed to death.
The death struggle was sharp and de-
ctsive. The clubs in the hands of the
husky ranchers wrought speedy exc
cution, and about half Of the coyotes
fell victims either to the bludgeons Of
the hunters or the teeth of the dogs.
This is large percentage of killed, az
generally not more than one-quarter Of
the coyotes in the final circle lose their
scalps.
Several accidents took place in the
course of the hunt. One hunters horse
fell with him. the rider sustaining a
broken shoulderblade and the horses
leg being broken. That horse was shot,
as were two others that were injured
by stepping in badger holes while their
riders were urging them after fleeing
coyotes. Another horse broke his neck
in bad fall and the rider was thrown
into a barbwire fence. luckily escaping
with nothing but a few scratches. At
o'clock, after the roundup was end
ed and the scalps were counted, the
hunters gathered about the fire and
partook of the dinner.

Coyote Roundup Fatal to Horses
Colorado Battue Requires Hard Riding.

A COYOTE roundup recently held
"a near Denver, Col, in which 500
horsemen participated, resulting in the
slaughter Of about twenty coyotes.
shows how earnestly the ranchmen and
cattlemen of the West are striving to
rid themselves Of this old-time pest of
the prairies. These round-ups are held
regularly in Colorado and other West
ern' states, but, in spite of the slaugh-
ter of coyotes, the animals continue to
increase, killing calves, robbing hen
roosts and committing other depreda-
tions. Wyoming spends $4,000 a year
in wolf and coyote bounties, and yet it
has just been announced that despite
the tremendous slaughter of the ami
mails in that state both wolves and
coyotes are actually on the increase.
The roundup is probably the most
effective means Of killing the coyotes
The animal IS so wary that it can rare
ly be brought within rifle shot by the
individual hunter, and it will seldom
touch meat that has been poisoned, be-
cause it's remarkable sense of smell be-
trays the presence of man, and con-
seQuently the only effective way of kill
Ing 1t is to form a huge circle, many
miles in circumference, and gradually
close in, penning the animals in the
center and killing them with clubs.
The annual coyote roundup near
Denver this year was probably the most
spectacular affair Of it's kind ever held.
Besides the 500 horsemen who took ac-
tive part in it, there were twenty wom-
en- riders. A small army of sightseers
in carriages and farm wagons Of every
description was on hand, ranchers for
miles around having made the occa-
sion holiday, and special trains being
run from Denver and other points to
carry the crowds. Huge CHUCK
wagons" borrowed from cattle outfits.
were taken along, loaded with coffee
and sandwiches and other eatabIes.
After the chase was over bonfires were
lighted on the plains, and around these
the hunters and spectators gathered
and recounted the events of the day.
The preparations for the roundup
began the night before. The captain Of
the hunt directed the crews to ranch
houses forming an immense circle thir-
ty miles in diameter. By 6 o'clock in

Horrible incident Marks the
Floods i'm Ohio.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 2.-Dis-
patches from a number cities in the
state report that flood conditions are
still serious. At Defiance the river is
seventeen feet above normal. Two
hundred houses are under water and
the river is still rising. Indications
point to a continuation of the high wa
ter until at least noon Sunday.
At Bucyrus half a dozen bridges
have been swept away and the prop
erty damage will reach $4,000. The
Luke cemetery is partially washed
away and bodies are seen floating
down the stream.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, April 2.-Ohio
has three large artificial bodies Of wa
ter as feeders Of the state canals. The
grand reservoir in Mercer and Ag-
glaise counties is the largest artificial
body of water on earth. 1t Is ten
miles long, with Celina located at the
west end and st. Mary's at the east
end. 1t is from two to five miles wide
and covers about 10000 acres. In Lo-
gan county, near Bellefontaine, is the
Lewiston reservoir. 1t is three miles
east of the Grand reservoir and is half
as large. For over a half century the
entertainments Of these artificial lakes
have withstood the pressure of wind
and water.
The Grand reservoir empties into the
Wabash and ST. Mary's rivers. The
eastern outlet thence reaches the Maui
NEE and lakes, but the main outlet is
into the Wabash.
The most dangerous situation to-
night is at the Lewiston reservoir,
which empties into the Miami river, as
that river is flooding Sidney, Piqua,
Troy, Dayton, Miamisburg Ridletown,
Hamilton and everything in the Miami
vicinity.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 2.-East
Marion has been practically destroyed
by flood and will have to be rebuilt.
At ST. F'rancisville and at Russellville
and Billette, ILL.,, the situation is still
critical. Two men arrived at Vim
cennes in a boat today and asked for
relief for Russellville, where they say
nearly every house is submerged and
the people are without provisions.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, April AT
F'indlay the flood situation is much bet
ter tonight. Estimates of the loss range
from 100000 to 100000. Much of the
Ohio Central trackage has been washed
away.
At Canal Dover the flood is the third
that has occurred in three months.
The Tuscarawas river has overlooked
it's banks. Residents have gone into
the second stories of their homes. Rail-
road traffic Is retarded and on some
roads entirely suspended. Improved
conditions are looked for tomorrow.

MAY STIR UP CHINA
Tibetan Massacre Promises
Trouble for England.

LONDON, April 2.-The slaughter of
the Tibetans entirely kills such waning
interest as still exists here in the Japa-
nese- Russian struggle. The news of the
wholesale bloodshed excites as a gem
eral rule a feeling of depression, first
because the average Englishman
scarcely sees that it was necessary, and
secondly, because there is general APP
prehension that it may lead to COM
plications with Russia. The last thing
the British public wants at the present
moment is another war, and what is
most dreaded is a rise in the income
tax. Hence the tragic events in far
off Tibet are especially unwelcome at
this time, when the taxpayer is nerv-
ously waiting to see how he will be
called on to pay off the national def
icit.
The extreme Liberal papers seize on
the slaughter at Guru as one of the
worst blotS on the history of England
The government organs, while express
ing the regret felt in official circles
that such an event occurred at this mo-
ment. reiterate Foreign Secretary
LansdOwne's assurances to Russia that
Great Britain has no intention of an
nexing Tibet. The text of those who
defend Col. Younghusband's action is
Lord Lansdowne's statement in the
house of lords that all Great Britain
desires is a new convention with the
Tibetans and with China as the suze-
rain power of Tibet
The opposition, however, points out
that China has repeatedly protested
against the strength of the escort with
which this political mission" is ac-
cOmpanied and declares that as mat
ter of fact Great Britain is now at war.
not with Tibet, but with China, there
by endangering China's neutrality to-
ward Russia and Japan and risking the
peace of the world. This extreme view
is ridiculed in official circles, where the
case of Cuba is instanced as parallel.
1t is held in Downing street that Tibet,
by refusing trade privileges, returning
official letters unopened and not re-
specting boundary rights, has become
as dangerous a neighbOr to the Indian
empire as Cuba in her unrest was to
the United States.
In the minds of the masses who have
shown in the by-elections that they
have lost faith in the present govern
ment, the slaughter at Guru is likely
to be considered as a stain on Lord
CurZon's administration, which only
the defeat of the responsible ministers
can wipe out.
The government has done everything
in it's power to belittle and keep quiet
it's plans in regard to Tibet Though
apparently Col. Younghusband's mis-
sion is mainly aimed at destroying al
legged Russian influences in Tibet, this
is not regarded as vital when compared
with the paramount importance of
keeping clear of the Russo-J Japanese
war It is not regarded as likely that
serious international complications will
follow this affair, but Chinas action in
the matter will be rather anxiously
awaited.
