II His Liking For Salt an Acquired

II His Liking For Salt an Acquired
or a Natural TasteH
Some men who were camping in the
Adirondacks several years ago on
breaking camp in the autumn left an
old tub which was saturated with
salt brine. On returning to the same
camp the next year they found that
the tub had been gnawed until little Of
it was left. They were not long in find
ing out what animal had done the
work, for the camp was overrun with
Canadian pOrcupines. At night they
became such nuisance that the camp
ers were obliged to kill them to protect
their property. The handle Of paddle
was gnawed half through.
The explanation Of their presence in
such numbers during that year. when
they had not been noticeably abundant
in the previous year, is that they had
made rendezvous of the camp. being
attracted by the old brine tub. On
this they Toasted all winter and for
that reason We're greatly pleased with
the locality
An interesting query is this: Is the
liking for salt an acquired or a natural
taste? Were they ever able to crafty
that taste to any extent before man
gave them a chance to do sO?-St Mich

Curious Laws That Prevailed In the
FlOrentine Republic.

Curious Laws That Prevailed In the
FlOrentine Republic.
The Florentine republic had unique
method of dealing with it's too ardent
democrats. In 1903 the state passed
the famous Magma Charta of Flor
ence," to curb the cruelty and rapacity
of the lawless mobiles, who, in defiance
of the law courts, were accustomed to
fog and torture their dependents at
will. The act practically DISTINGUISHED
these titled harpies by a clause which
excluded them from the signory-a
body in the state corresponding to the
British cabinet-unless they renowned
their nobility.
This curious provision prepared the
way for a still more extraordinary
clause, which enacted that any member
of the democratic party who made
himself obnoxious to the government
and was by them declared to be guilty
Of treason to the commonwealth" should
be given a patent of nobility and thus
at the same moment be raised in the
social scale and reduced to a political
nobody at the will of the state.-Lon-
don Telegraph.

The NOurishinG Chestnut.

The London Lancet finds that the
chestnut is the most digestible nut and
cannot only take the place Of the pota-
to, as in France where chestnuts, boil
ed and mashed like potatoes, make a
delicious dish, but in reality they are a
more perfect form Of food. According
to the Lancet's analysis Of the potato
and the chestnut. the latter contains
less water, more proteid, more fat and
starch, but less mineral matter, than
the potato and is more digestible than
the latter. Like the potato, also, its
nutritive and digestive qualities are
greatest when baked or roasted.

When ReDtiles Die.

A Viennese naturalist declares that
nearly all reptiles that die from nat
ural causes close their lives between
nightfall and midnight, only few be-
tween midnight and morning and few
er still in daylight Most reptiles seem
aware of their approaching death, seek
ing out particular places and there
awaiting the end, while those whose
lives are spent underground come to
the surface before death.

INVENTOR TELLS OF FRANKS
OF CALIFORNIA MESSENGER
Says Airship Is Being Repaired and
Will Soon Sail Without Diff
Guilty

OAKLAND, Feb. 10. - The airship
California Messenger, which was
wrecked in Berkeley yesterday, has
been brought back to Idora Park,
and is undergoing repairs under
the direction of it's inventor, George
z. Heaton. The bamboo frame of the
car was badly shattered and the silk
of the balloon was slightly torn. The
repairs will be completed by Tuesday
and the task of filing the balloon with
gas will be finished by Friday.
While holding the airship close to
the ground yesterday, in order to have
some photographs taken, the knots
slipped suddenly and Mrs. Heaton, who
was on board alone, took an involun-
tary trip to Berkeley, where the ship
landed.
The ascent advertised to take place
to-day from Idora Park may take place
next Sunday.
Bad luck seems to follow The Cal
ifornia Messenger. Within the week
ii has had two mishaps; the one of
yesterday and also Of last Sunday,
when Heaton landed in the bay near
the Key Route pier.
When seen at Idora Park to-day Mr..
Heaton said:
/ was all ready to make a successful trip
to-day but the unfortunate accident of yes
terday causes this to be postponed until next
Sunday. We were getting ready to take a
photograph of the Messenger, and for this
purpose had brought the ship within ten yards
Of the earth, when the guy rope broke and the
ship, with my wife in the car, escaped.
We are now filling the balloon with air to
look for leaks and will be ready for practice
make the most successful trip ever made in

Former Yardmaster Tries to
Kill BluecOat After He
Has Been Put Under Arrest
Oakland ONCE San Francisco Call.

1915 Broadway, Feb. 10.
With loaded pistol pressed against
his body, Patrolman John T. Fahy
fought for his life this morning at
West Oakland against Lindsay S.
Hackett, formerly a Southern Pacific
Company yardmaster, who snapped the
weapon several times in his attempt
to Kill the policeman. Hackett was
prevented from committing murder by
merest chance. Fahy managed to jam
his hand under the revolver hammer
and check the discharge of the cart
ridges. In the battle that ensued for
possession of the pistol, Hackett was
beaten into submission and was sent
to the Receiving Hospital.
There scalp wound and several
cuts and bruises about his head were
treated. Afterward the belligerent
railroad man was sent to the City
Prison, where charges of drunkenness
and assault with a deadly weapon
were registered against him.
The encounter occurred at Seventh
and Chester streets at $3.50 o'clock this
morning. An hour before the battle
Fahy found Hackett asleep in front

departed on his rounds. Shortly after
o'clock the lusty blowing of po-
lice whistle attracted the patrolman,
who ran to Seventh and Chester
streets, only to see Hackett in front
of a restaurant, abusive and intoxicat
ed. Fahy placed the man under ar
rest. Hackett, with an OATH sudden
ly drew the pistol from his pocket,
jammed the muzzle against Fahy and
pulled the trigger. The policeman was
quick enough to force his hand be-
tween the hammer and the chamber.
The metal point tore into Fahy's hand
and inflicted a painful wound.
Then followed a desperate fight for
the revolver. The men are powerful
and Hackett was infiamed by strong
drink Back and forth across the side
walk they struggled until the bluecoat
managed to get his club into action.
With one hand Fahy kept a firm grip
on the pistol, while the other one
worked quickly and effectively the
baton on Hackett's head. In a few
minutes the railroader was ready to
cry quits"
