has been learned, there have been
rumors going round that business
men of the city would send a sub
scription list around and make an
effort to raise a sum of several hun
bred dollars to be added to the re-
ward in order that a sum approx
mating $1,000 or 81 200 be had. So
much comment has been made on
this case, which has attracted atten-
ticn throughout the country, that
residents of the city, almost as
unit are feverishly anxious that the
guilty be brought to justice within
a short time.
While they have given out no def
mite statement as to what clews they
have on hand, it is an evident fact
that the detectives at work on the
case have not worked in vain for the
past two weeks and are in possession
of clews and threads of evidence
which are destined to ultimately lead
them on the track of the murderer.
Little by little they have gained
Roadway in what was at first a COM
plete puzzle, and though some points
about it have not and may never be
cleared up. they have enough to
weave out a dangerous web of cir
cumstantial evidence.
The officers are not inclined in the
least to act hastily and wish to be
thoroughly satisfied that they are on
the right track before they take any
definite action in the case. A rash
move might ruin their plans and pre-
vent the mystery from being cleared
up, and they are working toward not
doing anything like this.
Capt. John A. Dicks, frequenter
of the Vanderbilt campus and sup
posed to have the second sight, -
called up the Nashville police station
a few days since and told of a dream
he had had, in which he beheld the
murder. He states that it appeared
to him that man went to Mrs. Man
grum's berth in a sleeping car and
took her body in his arms and threw
1t into the Ohio river as the train
passed over the bridge at Henderson,
Ky. Mrs. Mangrum was found with
hat and gloves on, however, and thus
the dream of the dreamer is dissi-
pated into thin air.

We are told that milligramme Of radium
shoots out some 20 100000 negative electrons per
second with velocity about five-sixths as great
as that of light. these being the Beta rays. while
there are also Alpha rays-much larger. but
having only one-eighteenth of the speed of light.
NJ. Holzmuller has now tried to give a definite
idea of what this action means. He has made
calculations from observed facts, and these
show that little pellet of pure radium weigh
ing gramme, or one thirtieth of an ounce, ex-
hausts in the course of its life an amount of
energy equivalent to one horsepower for fifteen
DAYS.

but three tree snakes of Borneo, lately
I'd to the London Geological Society by
6helford, are credited with taking flying
leaps from the boughs of trees to the ground.
1t is found that scales on the lower part of the
body may be drawn inward so that the whole
lower surface becomes concave. The resistance
to the air is thus greatly increased, and expert
ments indicate that the snakes do not fall in
writhing coils but are let down gently in direct
line by the parachute-like action of their pecu-
liar bodies

A novel method of preventing seasickness is
recommended by DR.. Eugen Wolf, a German.
On the first feeling of giddiness the patient lies
fiat on his back, with clothing unbuttoned to
give free breathing, and handkerchief wet
with hot water is tightly twisted around the
head. The first unpleasant sensation soon wears
away. As the bandage cools, it is replaced by
another-as hot as can be borne-until all
squeamIsh feeling is relieved. which is usually
in about half an hour. After two hours the
patient may eat, drink and smoke as usual. and
If treatment has been prompt it is claimed that
the toughest sea will have no further effect.

There was a car of clipped yearlings and
