There will be something doing
in the good old town of Camden
tomorrow. First, we have the dis

tended by delegates from all over

The saw mill of DR.. j. Z. Bray,
who resides few miles northwest
of town, was burned Thursday
night of last week. The lumber
on the yard was saved through the
heroic work of the family and the
neighbors who rendered valuable
assistance. The origin of the fire
is unknown. There had been no
fire about the mill all day Thurs
day, and two hours before the fire
was discovered everything about
the mill was seemingly all right.
The loss is about $500, and it falls
hard on DR.. Bray, as this is the
second time he has had his mill
destroyed in the past few years.

According to Horsepower.

A young motorist, endeavoring to convince a country innkeeper that the decay of coaching was more than com pensated for by the spread of motoring as pastime, exclaimed, as final ar gument, that his car was of forty horsepower, "the equal, sir, of ten re- lays of coach horses"
 The next morning he read in his bill. ''To feeding and stabling, 80 shillings.' .''
 He asked the landlord for an ex- planation.
 'The charge for losses is shillin' a 'ead, sir,' was the reply. That ma chine of yours is equal to forty losses, which is 80 shillin'." = London Ex- press.

the elements be accomplished. The function of chlorophyll may only be comprehended when it's chief physical properties are understood. These may be best illustrated by placing gram of chopped leaves of grass or geranium in a few cubic centimeterS of strong alcohol for an hour.
 Such a solution will be of a bright, clear green color, and when the vessel containing it is held in such a manner that the sunlight is reflected from the surface of the liquid it will appear blood red, due to it's property of fuor- essence, that of changing the wave length of the rays of light of the violet and of the spectrum in such a manner as to make them coincide with those of the red end. It is by examination of light which has passed through solu- ton of chlorophyll, however, that the greatest insight into it's physical prop critics may be gained. If such a ray of light is passed through prism and spread out on screen, it may be seen that there are several large intervals of dark bands in the spectrum. The rays of light which would have occu- pied these spaces have been absorbed by the chlorophyIl and converted into heat and other forms of energy. This energy is directly available to the pro toplasm containing the chlorophyll, and by means of 1t the synthesis of con- plex substance may be accomplished.

RICHARD BURBAGE.
He Was Great Actor and Shake
 speare's Leading Star.


 March 16, 161S or 1919, Richard Bur bage, player, died at Shoreditch, Lon- don.
 The first of the great English tragic actors, Burbage was in every way worthy to head the long roll of Eng lands famous players. The son of an actor, the friend and companion of Shakespeare, it was through him that many of the heroes of the dramatist first spoke to the eager playgoers who thronged the Globe theater He was the original of Romeo, Hamlet, Lear. Othello Macbeth, ShylOck, Richard III. and many other of Shakespeare's leading characters, and his name stands next to that of the great poet in the licenses for acting granted by James I. in 1903 to the company of the Globe theater
 His powers as an actor were not his only claim to distinction. for he was also a successful painter The fame of his abilities held prominent place in theatrical tradition for many years. a poem in his honor dedicated to one of the great players of the day, being written as late as the time of Charles H.
 His death, which was probably the result of paralysis, caused the poets to turn their thoughts to his successful career, and it is from the numerous elegies then written that most of the information concerning him must be gathered. Few players have ever had the good fortune to be so we'll liked by the dramatists of their time, and all praised him, one even lamenting that his death hath made a visible eclipse of playing
 A shrewd, careful man in his busi- ness affairs, Burbage left an estate producing yearly income of 9300, large sum for player in those days to bequeath to his heirs. Beloved and respected by all, he survived his great master by only 8 few years. his grave bearing the simple, expressive epitaph, "Exit Burbage" = London Saturday Review

THE MOTHER ANTELOPE.
Wonderful Manner In Which She
 Provides For Her Young.

The manner in which the mother an. telope protects her young until they tre old and strong enough to join the Full grown bands il their waDderings is an interesting and wonde. cuI instance of natures providence. These beauti- full creatures live in an opeR country infested by all kinds of enemies and especially prowled over by the coyote. the gray wolf and the timber wolf. which subsist upon the young of all kinds of animals. yet the mother can easily protect her babies from the f1ercest of these marauders The enc my most dreaded is the soaring eagle.
 There is variety of cactus, prick ly plant which grows in great abun- dance all over the western plains, which furnishes her the means for this protection. Horses, cattle, buffalo and, In fact, all animals know the danger of treading on this plant. It grows in large patches some four or six inches in height above the ground and forms a thick mat varying in breadth from the size of the top of mans hat to many feet. It is in the center of one of these patches that the female antelope prepares a place of safety for her young. The thorns of this cactus, while very poisonous and terribly pain full to every other animal, for some reason are almost harmless to the an telope. The cactus may lacerate her legs, making them bleed freely, but neither the stickers nor their poison remains, while other animals seldom bleed, but retain the poisonous stick CTS in their wounds until they become malignant sores, causing excessive swelling of the limbs and very great and long continued suffering.
 When the antelope has selected her patch of cactus, backing away few feet, she will make a running jump, bounding high in the air and alighting in the middle of the patch, with all four feet close together, the hoofs pointing downward. Then, springing put again and repeating this operation until she has chopped the roots of the cactus plant to pieces, she loosens and clears a space large enough for stand Ing room She then will enlarge 1t by paving and digging with her sharp hoofs. Here she gives birth to her young i'll undisturbed security, know ing that she can leave them in con- parative safety during the day and re- turn to them at night to give them suck Should it be in locality where eagles abound, however, the mother ing eagle often swoops down on the young, taking them away if she is not there to do battle for their lives.-H.
