Young Falcons at school.

The young of falcons and hawks are
well trained by their parents. From
the time they are strong enough to pull
at and break up the quarries brought
to them it is one long course of instruc-
ton. The old birds know perfectly
well what the young ones will have to
do, and they get them fit for doing it
as soon as they can. They compel them
to take longer flights day after day
and teach them how to stoop-that is.
strike at their quarry. One or the 9th
er will shoot up with a portion Of feath-
er or, it may be, fur, followed by the
young hopefuls. Then the morsei is
dropped from the clutch Down they
dash for 1t, and the one that makes the
quickest stoop secures the prize before
it reaches the ground When the old
birds think the young can fend for
themselves off they go. This is not a
case of choice, but necessity, for they
are simply cuffed and buffeted off. So
we'll is this known in the country that
it is a common thing to hear q lad say,
"Them 'ere hawks has druv their young
uns off."-Blackwood's Magazine.

Many birds seek the protection which
the presence of man affords against
furred and feathered foes when the
breeding season approaches. Not so
the raven. It's distrust of us is pro-
found, and it's nest is placed in some
wild spot far out of reach of our pos
sible attack or succor. But there are
other enemies. / know of pair that
built on one side Of projecting crag
high up On the cliffs of Rathlin island
Some fierce peregrine falcons occupied
the other side of the crag, and when
one day their eggs were taken by an
adventurous collector they, sharing the
popular opinion of a ravens blackness,
concluded that their neighbors were the
offenders and wreaked their grief and
vengeance upon them. When, on their
return from a fOraging expedition, the
falcons found their nest despoiled they
were seen to hold a consultation, and
after much deliberation they suddenly
arose and both with enc accord flew
at the ravens nest and sacked it, tear
ing it in their rage and indignation
until not one stick was left upon anoth-
er.-LOndon Standard

strength of insects and Animals.

strength OF insects anu Animals.
A series of experiments made to test
the jaw force and pulling and lifting
strength of various kinds of insects
gives some curious points for study. 1t
has been found that a cockchafer can
draw fourteen times his own weight
and the common honeybee thirty
times. From this it may be argued
that, weight for weight, each Of the
above named insects is twenty-one
and thirty times respectively stronger
than the horse, whose strength, as a
rule, is taxed to it's utmost in drawing
it's own weight as dead load" A
scientist once experimental with a
small hard shelled beetle by putting
him under common table tumbler.
The little creature, not more than one
third of an inch in length, was able to
move the glass in any direction. After
the experiment had been satisfactorily
made both the tumbier and the bug
were weighed, whereupon it was found
that the little Hercules had lifted $50
times its own weight! He did not car
ry the weight, of course, but caused 1t
to make some lively motions.

Railway Wheels

Did you ever notice that the wheels
of locomotive engine are beveled?
The reason for this is that in rounding
a curve the outer rail is, of course, a
little longer than the inner one The
difference is very little, but it would
be enough to make an engine "skid"
unless it were reckoned for In the
beveled wheel the higher part, with it's
greater circumference, is forced against
the outer rail by the very tendency
of the engine to drive straight ahead,
and with the other wheel the smaller
circumference rests Oh the rail, thus
overcoming the difference in the lengths
of the lines

GAINESVILLE

Illegal fishing is being carried on in
Lake Koshkonong on scale never hlth-
erto attempted, and the most persistent
efforts OF DeputyGame Warden Drafahl
to capture the guilty parties have thus
far failed. Last week he took out one
set line eighty rods long, provided with
500 hooks and weighed down with 300
pounds of fish.
Ex-Sheriff William Fl Appleby is chief
of police of the city of GAINESVILLE. At the
regular meeting of the common council
Monday evening Chief John j Comstock
was ousted from the Office and Mr. APP
pleby elected in his place in the short
space of three minutes. This program
was an entire surprise to Chief Com
stock.
CA Beach of the town of Beloit,
against whom an action for pursuing
ducks with gun during the closed sea-
son last March has been on the docket
for several months, was accompanied to
municipal court Monday by Deputy
Game Warden Peter Drafahl. On his
plea of guilty Judge Fifeld imposed a
fine of 500 and costs or twenty days IN
jail, but on recommendation of the war
den the fine was remitted on payment OF
costs and the retention by the state of
the confscated property consisting of
one shot gun worth more than ten dol
lars.
Secretary Ell M Whitaker of the State
BARRIERS Board, formerly of this city and
now a resident of Milwaukee, has been
awarded $50 damages for injury inflicted
on him last fall by Mayor James Cor
man of Kenosha. 1t will be recalled
that Mr. Whitaker had been making
some trouble for German for not COM
plying with the BARRIERS license law and
was subsequently invited into the lat
ter's shop where, behind doors alleged to
have been locked and in the presence of
another barber and the porter, the Ke-
nosha man is said to have given the
Bower City citizen terrible beating.
An action against German was tried in
justice court and the defendant was
cleared, the court declaring the state
BARRIERS law to be unjust. Pierce q
Fisher, attorneys for Whitaker, subse-
quently brought an action for $4,000
damages against German in circuit
court. The concluding arguments were
made before the Jury on Saturday. The
plaintiffs case was made difficult owing
to the fact that Germans friends and
employees, the only witnesses of the en-
counter, all testified that Whitaker
struck at the defendant first.

The superiority Of those men who
keep their tempers in public bodies is
SO apparent that GOODNESS should be
one of the first virtues to be cultivated
there. The discreet member will re-
gard public life of this kind as a
school for such a purpose There are
trials for nervous or impulsive men
often in these positions, but a part Of
their tactics must be to resist them il
they are to have hope Of success. Moth
ing can be clearer than that it is for
their interest to do so. The debater
who keeps cool is sure to have his op-
pOnent at a disadvantage. The cool
man is usually a master Of sarcasm,
which is an effective weapon in an
noying an adversary. but dangerous
one also, because there is always the
temptation to carry it too far. The
men who have the widest influence
are the good natured men, whose words
leave no sting behind them.

A Wonderful Plant Family.

There is a family of microscopic
plants called diatoms which swarm in
all oceans in every cline. They are
coated with pure silica, or flint, and
are found in the most delicate and love
Hest forms. So tiny are they that it
takes 41,OOO,OO0,000 Of them to fill a
single cubic inch, and 1S6OOO,OOO to
the naked eye would just look like a
speck of dust and weigh only a grain.
They multiply so fast that within for
ty-eight hours one may become 5000
900 and it's offspring fill two cubic feet
in four days. AS they die they sink to
the bottom, falling in constant show
er. La the course of ages they fill up
harbors, the deposits formed of them
being many miles in extent and hun
dreds of feet in thickness. The deep
est deposit known is that on which the
city Of Berlin stands, which is eighty
four feet thick. At st. Petersburg
there is a deposit of thirty feet, and at
Richmond, Va, is one Of eighteen feet.
