Considerable soup stock is repre-

SHEEP KILLER BIG BEAR.
pennsylyania Farmers Put an End
to the Destroyer Of Their
Flocks.

One OF the blacklist and bloodiest
robbers ever known in Potter county
was caught near Prouty in wolf trap,
reports the Philadelphia Record. The
robher had stolen and killed IA sheep
from various farmers within three
weeks, and as each sheep was worth
seven dollars the mutton was worth al
most as much as the robber-a big
black bear.
Morning after morning following
raids upon the focks half eaten car
casses of sheep were found at the edge
of fields or rlong old roadways. The
farmers at first thought the slaughter
was the work of lynx, OF which there
are several known in that section. But
one morning they found 'aught In the
big-iawed wolf trap which had been
set the nigh. before with a generous
niece Of mutton the biggest black bear
th.t ne had yer seen. nd the bear
was mad-m2d as hornet--but bull
let from a rl.,e killed him.
The bear weighed little better than
600 pounds. che farmers around Prouty
who lost sheep each had bear meat foI

WHORE, perhaps, with view to the
possible contingencies Of Russian

latterly there have been strong signs
Of anti-Swedish feeling among the
other sections. and in public opinion
throughout the province. Fortunately.
the Swedish population in the country
has realized the danger in time. and
recognising that Swedish associations

WHAT FISH SEE OF WORLD
College Professor uets the Results
with a Camera Under
Water.


That a fish in an aquarium has an
entirely different view of the external
world than we whose vision is unhin-
dered by glass or water is a thought
that perhaps has come to but few.
one OF these few is Prof. Robert w.
Wood, of Johns Hopkins university,
who has succeeded in obtaining photo
graphs Of Mount Vernon Place, and a
view looking west down Monument,
and north and south down Eutaw
streets, as they would appear to fish
submerged near those localities.
AS is well known, an eye below the
surface of the water sees the sky
compressed into a comparatively
small circle of light, the center OF
which is always Immediately above
the observer, the appearance being as
II the pond were covered with an
opaque re with a circular window
cut in l.. The objects surrounding
the pond, such as trees, houses or
people, must appear around the rim of
the circle of light, but the human be-
Ing is unable to get clear notion of
their appearance, since his eyes are
not adapted to distinct vision under
water
Reasoning from this fact 1t occur
red to Mr.. Wood tbat very good
notion of how these things appear to
the fish would be obtained by miners
ing camera in water and photo
! graphing the circle of light. His APP
paratus was constructed out of lard
pail, a short focus lens provided with
very small diaphragm being ce-
mented over a hole perforated in a
metal disk which restal on rim
soldered around the insi of the pail.
| The plate was placed on the bottom
Of the pail and the whole filed with
clean water in dark room. The lens
was covered by metal cap operated
by handle on the outside OF the pail
The apparatus was set on tie ground
with sheet of glass to prevent rip
pies, the pail being so full that the
glass was in contact with the water
This arrangement obviated the neces-
sity of immersing the affair in pond
since the function Of the latter was
performed by the water in the pai
above the lens.
A number of interesting pictures
were taken, among them being Mount
Vernon Place as IL would appear to {
fish submerged in a pond near thu
base of the lion. The monument Il
plainly shown. and the adjacent build
ings can be plainly made out arount
the rim of the circle Of light.
