Queer Things About Flames.

There Is relation between the color
OF flame and the energy Of the COM
bustion causing it. The more vigorous
and complete the combustion the high
er the refrangibility Of the light. A
flame burning in tardy and restricted
way emits rays that are red. When
burning in a more complete and effec-
tive manner, the emitted rays change
to violet. The flame of candle or a
lamp consists of series of eccentric
luminous shells surrounding central
dark core. These shells of flame emit
light of different colors. the innermost
one-that in direct contact with the
dark core-being red and having tenn
perature Of exactly OFT degrees f.
Upon this and in their proper order of
refrangibility are shells Of light which
are orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo
and violet. The reason that such q
flame does not appear to us as nest
Of cones of different colored light is
this: When we look upon such fame
all OF the rays issuing from the diff
ferent layers or strata of cOncentric
luminous shells are received by the
retina of the eye at one and the same
time. This can only impress with the
sensation of neutral or white light.

WE CALLED THE BLUFF.

Down It's Hand.

Down It's Hand.
Is 1t any wonder that congress called
the bluff and that the buffer laid down
his cards as gracefully as possible? No
doubt it contributes to international
excitement to have these little fiurries
every now and then 1t furnishes an
opportunity for statesmen to look owl
1sh, for orators to spout and for gov
eminent organs to indulge in more or
less delectable folderol. But 1t doesn't
fool any one who really understands
the game, and it doesn't pay cent at
any stage Of the proceedings.
The simple truth Of the matter is
that we are running this country to
suit ourselves, for our own profit and
advantage, while all the rest Of them
are doing precisely the same thing.
There's about as much sentiment In ii
as in the differential calculus. and it Is
about as easy to bluff this country as

DEBORAH, Nov. 27.-Denouncing the
city officials as failing in the protec-

criminals were permitted to escape
justice, the women of DEBORAH, in a
mass meeting here, passed resolutions
demanding that action be taken for
better use OF their Office. During the
meeting the officials were called upon
the carpet and practically admitted
the truth Of the. charges. One case
showed that criminal guilty of bru-
tai assault had been given three hours
to leave town. Another case cited a
circus which had performance for
men only" and which remained until
forced out of town by the indignant
women. Mayor Daubney, when ques-
toned concerning the actions of his
officers. expressed surprise and seem
ed astonished that crimes were being
committed in the city. The mayor
admitted that he gave one person
three hours to leave town, but said he
did so in order to save the reputation

ENTERS EMPTY
HOUSE TO DIE
FRANK LENHART OF SPRING.
FIELD FOUND NEAR DEATH IN
A DAVIS COUNTY FARM HOUSE
Receivers Sufficiently to Tell Story OF
Life-once Travelling Salesman
Lost His Family In the Galveston
FIood-Back to Old Home.

Bloomfield, Nov. 27.-(SpeciaD.- "A
frail old man, sick, discouraged and in
starving condition. was found Sun
day in an empty house on the Virgins
farm, seven miles south of the city.
The property was vacated about six
weeks ago and had been rented by
Charles Sample, who visited the house
Sunday evening, when upon entering
one of the rooms he found an aged
man lying on the floor apparent
ly dying. Mr. Sample Immediately
lifted the man onto a couch, built a
fire and ministered to his wants as
best he could under the circumstances.
Story Of Life is Pathetic.
When the man had somewhat re-
vived he stated that his name was
Frank Lenhart and the story of his
life as gathered little by little as told
in broken sentences is very pathetic.
The old man was very frail and almost
starved, as he had eaten nothing for al
most week, having begged his break
fast at the Sim Patterson home week
ago Monday. He is Pennsylvania
Dutchman and was born in Ptitsburg,
Pa. He cnce had a wife and two sons.
He had been a travelling salesman and
lived in Springfield, ILL.,. when his wife
became sick and having two sons in
business in Galveston, Tex, she de-
cided TO try that climate for her
health. Then the flood came and when
he reached Galveston his entire fam
| lily had disappeared and no trace of
them has ever been found. Discour-
aged now and bent with the weight of
care and sorrow he had been begging
his way to Springfield, when in the
storm of Sunday he took refuge in the
vacant house and laid down to die.
The case was reported to Sheriff Wiki
inson, who took him in charge Mon
day morning and lodged him at the
