A CLOSE CALL,

in the momentum as the engineer ap-
piled the brake, Verville was thrown
between the cars.
Although the section Of the train was
moving very swiftly he managed to
throw himself upward from the sleepers
on which he struck and seize a lever
of one of the cars which is used in

Puzzles for Letter Carriers.

One of the greatest problems that
now faces the Post Office authorities
is the distribution Of the mails to the
right place. In the words of one OF the
clerks. the department not only does
not know where it is at" but does not
know " where anybody else it at" Be
fore the fire every clerk in the office
had the routes on which the large firms
were situated well in mind, and as soon
as a letter came for one of the we'll
known houses it went into the proper
pigeonhole with unfailing accuracy.
Now all that is changed. Those Trims
that were formerly neighbors are far
apart, and the whole system has to be
learned anew, which is slow work.
This retards sorting of the mail, and In
turn it makes delivery slow.
Immediately after the fire the amount
Of matter fell off to such an extent that
a number of the carriers were sent over
to Oakland, but these have been re-
called and are now trying to solve the
problem of location.
1.-THE main difficulty is to keep the
number of deliveries up to the stand
ard" said an official in the Postmae-
ters Office. Every little wickiup in
the burned district has hung out sign
and expects to get five deliveries day.
The locations are entirely changed, and
the problem is almost beyond human
power to solve At the same time a
large number of firms have gone into
the Fillmore District, and that changes
the locations in that part Of the city.
a a
all the new addresses we can get at
hand, but the locations we formerly
had in memory are useless to us now,
and almost every letter requires to he
looked ur and assigned to the proper
route. All these firms are calling for
the same service and number of deliv-
cries they had before the fire. And, to
make things merrier, the mails are
continuing to pour in with increasing
volume. San Francisco Chronicle.

THE TRICK OF A CHEMIST
His Simple Method of Making a Zoo
logical Transformation.

When we happen to witness q
phenomenon which seems to violate
natural laws we are not likely to for
get its cause if it be explained to us.
The following experiment, which l de-
vised for my students. helped them to
understand as well as to remember
some chemical data.
A white cat, made of flexible paste
board and imprisoned in a glass jar, is
shown to the audience The lecturer
announces that without opening the
jar or even touching it he will cause
the cat to undergo a geological as well
as a chemical transformation. He
takes the support of the jar and
pushes it forward in full view of the
students. The change occurs almost
instantaneously. The cat takes u rich
orange color on which black
transversal stripes rapidly paint them
selves. The cat has become a tiger.
The whole transformation is pro-
duced by carnations of hydrogen
sulphide. which is generated in the jar
Itself without any visible apparatus.
The cat has been previously coated
with solution Of chloride Of an
timony wherever the orange hue was
to be produced, and with a solution of
basic acetate of lead wherever the
black stripes were to appear. Both
solutions are colorless. After the
coated cat has been introduced i'm his
glass cage a small piece of pasteboard
is placed under the wooden support SO
as slightly to incline the jar forward
A few decigrammes of pulverized
sulphide of iron folded in a piece of
hlotting paper are deposited behind
the cat on the elevated side of the
bottom of the jar. Two or three cubic
centimeters Of diluted sulphuric acid
are dropped with a pipette on the
opposite side. When the performer
wishes the transformation to take
place he takes the wooden support and
pushes it forward as if he wanted to
enable everybody to see better what is
going to happen. By so doing he sup
presses the slight inclination which
kept the iron sulphide beyond the
reach of the sulphuric acid. The gas
is evolved and the formation of the
orange sulphide of anthony and black
sulphide of lead takes place in a few
seconds.-The Scientific American.

Several of the prominent grocers Of
the city have been attempting to per-
feet an agreement whereby the stores of
this city and Winslow will be closed
Tuesday afternoon of next week rather
than on the afternoon Of Wednesday.
The reason for the change is that the
proprietors may have the privilege of
attending the circus. A few of the
Waterville grocerymen are opposed to
the plan, stating as their principal rea-
son that scores and hundreds of farm
ers and jewellers in the outlying dis
tricts will wish to improve their OPP
portunity of seeing the circus by do
ing trading as well. No agreement IN
the matter has yet been reached.
