BOILED WINE TASTED GOOD.
Champagne Heated In the San Fran
 cisco Fire Has Fine Flavor.

At the time of the San Francisco fire 100000 quart bottles of choice Cal ifornia champagne boiled for over 4s hours in 100000 gallons of sherry. The result was the production of 10,- 900 quarts of champagne of rare flavor at a cost. however. never before CT pended on like quantity.
 The sherry was contained in s0.o00- gallon casks on the upper floors of the building of the California Wine association The fire destroyed the casks and the food of sherry poured into the cellars, where were stored the 100000 bottles of wine. The fury of the flames soon heated the sherry to boiling point. and the boil ing continued for two days and nights When cooled the sherry vas found to be filed with extraneous matter and rorthless. 50 1t vas pumped out into the streets Then 1t vas found that 1e.eo9 of the bottles of chaupaxue were unbroken. and that the unpar- elleied process had imparted to the rfne rare favor.

ANCIENT MYTH IS EXPLODED.
Scientific Proof That Animals Do Not Commit Suicide.

The supposed suicide of animals raises a subtle problem, and to deny it is to fly in the face of deep-rooted popular belief It is just as much a natural history myth, however. as the hoard-headed belief in the adder swallowing its young in time of peril, the toad living in stone nodule for thousands of years, or the germinat. ing powers of mummy wheat The most anicient felo de SC verdict of the myth mongers relates to the habit of scorpions digging their stings into their heads when unable to escape.
 Experiments have proved the fal- lacy of the scorpions suicide, notably those carried out some years ago by Dr. F. Ray Lankaster. director of the natural history department of the Brit ish Museum. and Prof. Bourne of Madras. Scorpions were confined in an extremely hot place from which es- cape was impossible, and their frantic gymnastics were carefully studied ~ 'SiSAO anu phiiocophie Sohi- placency. As in the case of the tor tured rattlesnake biting its own body. the action of the scorpion in an ap- parent attempt to put an end to its sufferings by stinging its head was purely muscular, and Dr. Lankaster himself compared the action to the biting the dust attributed to men who die in hand to hand struggles. or to the biting of their own hand or arm by unhealthy children in a paroxysm of anger.
 That animals bring about their own deaths by violent and abnormal ac- tions is certain. but if all the contrib utory causes could be ascertained it would probably be found that they did so under the pressure of some torturing pain producing hysterical madness.

NIGHT IN RA1rlEsNAKR DEN
Traveller Faiis Asleep in Abode Of
 Poisonous Reptiles.

St. Paul.-John 0. Busby, athlete. scientist and writer. has written to . friend of his in this city of . terri. flying experience he had while storm. bound in . small hut near Holy Gross. in Dubuque county. Mir. Busby tells his story as follows:
 T left Farley. Iowa. on . walking tour to Buena Vista. 20 miles sway. ] had covered half the distance with. out incident when there came up . thunderstorm which compelled mo to look about for shelter. 6ome little distance from the road I esplsd an old cabin and made for 1t l rssehsd 1t just e the st9rm broke. and finding N sheltered from the rain, entered and lying down upon the floor fell asleep.
 The night was far spent vhss . was awakened by the warning note of rattesnake. Soon heard othsr, and knew that # ! made the slight. est noise the reptiles would be upon Aoop oO aey uSO0SuSSD5 - UO2 oo death itself. Presently . felt tho slimy body of snaks pass across my, cheat. It made the cold chills chase themselves up and down my spine and I thought that surely I would bs bitten. By an almost supeFAuman effort. however. I managed to control the muscles' of my body until ths snake had vrigsisd its way into the ground. Then with . terrific bound I literally isaped from the foor out of the opening of the cabin. there being no door to t.

lively young widow led the way to
 unlock doors, and the boys and girls
 followed. snowballing and singing
 Christmas caroA
 The widow was in the act of making
 some interesting discoveries in the kitchen, and . dozen couples of dancers were moving over the parlof floor in harmony with music that was loud and fast, when shrieks and screams echoed through the rooms, and those who were able to command their senses saw . monster black bear entering the parlor on his hind feet and swinging his forelegs invitingly, as if seeking . partner for waltz. The ballroom instantly presented . scene of the widest excitement Boys and girls who were near windows lost no time in making their escape. The bear cut off the retreat of a consider. able crowd and hemmed them in . cor ner of the room. Bolivar pranced in front of these. licking froth from his red lips and glaring into the faces of the screaming girls as if he were try ing to select . dainty one for his Christmss supper. George Ely. . young man who was proud of his strength and, his ability to hit hard blows, ran forward and struck the bear on the side of the head. Bolivar shook his ear e If he were tickled, and, turning about, he seized the l,nsssd young man with his powerful paws and drew him to his breast. The bear was becoming angry. and he would soon have crushed every rib in Georges body if the youths sweet heart had not come to his rescue.
 Mary Goodwin had been dancing with George Ely and when the bear entered the room the thoughtful girl ran to the fireplace and seized an iron poker. It proved . good weapon. It was an iron bar about four feet in length. and 1t had been in use 90 long that one end had worn to . sharp point. Its effectiveness had been i'm proved by . young man who had stuck the sharp end in the fire for the pur. pose of using 1t to take the chill from a pitcher of hard cider.
 When Mary Goodwin saw her iov. er's face distorted with pain as he to set loose from the mad bears powerful arms she ran to his assistance. Help. For Gods sake. help me, boys," shouted George. The bear was trying to fasten his teeth in his victims throat. when the brave girl thrust the red-hot point of the iron bar behind the monsters fore shoulder and threw her whole weight upon 1t. The sharp point slipped be- tween the bears ribs and entered his heart.
 With an angry grovi Bolivar sank In . heap upon the ballroom floor. and George Ely staggered away. 10 fall. gasping for breath. in the arms of his fearless sweetheart

HUMAN DISSECTION.
Surgery and the Anatomists In the
Olden DAYS,


For a long time Alexandria was the
only medical center Of the world, and
the phys!ciun Galen, born about 13o
A. D., had 10 journey from Rome to
the African city even to see skeleton.
He sent his students to the German
battlenelds to dissect the bodies Of the
national enemies. while he himself used
apes as most resembling human beings.
Human dissection was revived in Bo.
logna In the fourteenth century, where
Madonna Manzolina later was profess.
or Of anatomy, undoubtedly one of the
first women doctors, IL not the very
first. Leonardo da yinci, painter Of
The Last supper" was a great anat-
omist, but dissection had fallen into
ltsuse when vesalius finally revived
1t about the middle Of the sixteenth
century.
Even In comparatively modern times
anatomists have been the object Of at
tacks by lie populace. In 17G5 nr
John Shipper Of Philadelphia was mob.
bed MS grave robber. Doctors riots
in New York occurred twenty-tiiree
years later and We're due to the belief
that the medical students robbed
graves continually. It was the lack of

COMMERCIAL CLUB MEETING.
Nothing Of Particular Importance AC'
COmpliShCd Monday Night.

About % members of the Com.
mercial Club were in attendance
last night. President Dawson
presided, and F. V. Russell acted
as secretary in the absence OF
Secretary Young. The auditor
ium committee reported, with
preliminary plans for an auditor
ium and city building combined.
The plan suggested was:
The city to put in $1,000 To
$4,000, the business men to raise
a like amount, by benefit enter.
tainments, contributions ETC., and
the building when completed to
cost from SIS, 900 to $4,000 to be
the property of the city exclusive
ly and controlled by the city.
The matter was discussed pro and
con by half a dozen of those
present, and then a rising vote
called for on the question of
whether it was the sense of the
Commercial Club that the citizens
and council build a city building
and auditorium jointly, or whether
the city put up its building and
someone else put up an opera
house. Seventeen men voted, 8
against joining with the city, and
s for such a course. This settled
the matter so far as the auditorium
committee is concerned, and they
were discharged.
The Santa Fe trail committee
reported progress.
The matter of a sewerage sys-
TEN, to cost anywhere from
$4,000 to $500 was discussed,
and on motion it was expressed as
the sense of those present and
voting, that the civ council get
a survey and estimates with a view
to putting in a sewerage system
if the city can afford it.
