NEW SENSATIONS.

The world seems gone mad over
tads and new sensations. The public
to be pleased must have something
novel, exciting, and before unheard
OF. People living by their wits must
be often times sore tried to invent a
new drawing card. No longer can
an interesting play alone hold an au-
dience. The performers skill and
the playwrights' art are nothing COM
pared to the gorgeous gowns and
jewels. Could our great grandpar-
ents, who, we must remember, were
once young and wooed and loved,
read our average short story or novel
they would look wonderingly at each
others eyes and exclaim: "What
is this uncanny, weird passion they
call lover"
What is it indeed? Perhaps in
reality it is no different from that
which ours grandparents knew, but
how differently it is portrayed Now
adays one must recognize in his affin-
ity soul to whom he was welded
thousands of years before. They may
even recall having been buried alive
together in tomb, or some such
ridiculous superstition.
Athletics have their planae among
amusements. Putting aside my per-
sonal opinion-that the female organ
ization is so constituted as not to ad-
NIT of benefit in such training-we
will consider them a harmless sport.
But being harmless, they must be dull
and stupid according to our up-to-
date standard. What then? Read
the drawing card of the amateur and
professional contests of the physical
culture club at the Madison Square
Garden, New York, and lasting a
week: Women to Race Three Days
Without Eating"
What will it lead us to-this hue
and cry for new sensations? It is
high time we stopped in our mad
career to question the results of our
extravagances. If we have no fear
for ourselves it is at least gross care
lessness to forget posterity. Flora

WIDE RAILROADS.

Mr.. G. Otto Krupp was the owner
of an eight-mile railroad, and a per-
son of considerable local importance
in the Pennsylvania German settle
ment where he resided.
One morning, as Lippincott's tells
the story, it occurred to Mr.. Krupp
that by sending passes over his road to
the presidents of the big railroads of
the country, he might receive compli-
mentary passes in return.
This would enable him to see some
thing of the world at comparatively
small expense, and such passes as he
could not use personally, he could
dispose of advantageously.
! Mr.: Krupp lost no time in getting

not find it.
He said he was sent from Philadel-

HOW SHOT Is MADE.

Ibid you know the method of max
ing shot has never changed? NoG
We'll, it's fact, said the shot maker.
Hundreds of years ago shot was
made in just the same way it is made
now. Seems strange, doesn't it, that
with all the improvement in other
lines none has been made in this !
Oh, yes. plenty of men have tried to
find some better way, but they all
have had to give it up and go back to
the old shot tower. They wanted to
get rid of the high tower, for that is
the most expensive part of the plant.
"You know, shot is made by pour
ing melted composition of lead and
arsenic through a screen or from
big ladle with a serrated edge at the
top of the tower and letting it fall
into a tank of water. The drops of
lead get perfectly round on their way
down just like raindrops, and by the
time they reach the water they are
cold enough so they do not hatten out
when they strike. Then the water
finishes the cooling process.
"They have tried dropping the lead
through a big tube, with blast of
cold air against the outside, and they
have tried dropping it through gly-
cerin, but none of these ways seem to
work. Why can't they improve on
itl Well, 1 suppose because the fell
low who started making shot found
the right way. It's just following
the course that Nature takes in max
ing hail, and l don't suppose they
can beat her at her own game"
