BRIGHT LIGHT
Fools Chickens And they Are
Dying of In
SOmnia.
fPittsburg Gazette.l

An epidemic of insomnia is killing
off the chickens of McKeesport,
Penn.
This is rather an unusual disease
to infect the feathered tribe, but it is
the truth. At least McKeesporters
vouch for the story, and McKeesport-
ers are truthful lot. The foot
prints of George Washington were
left in sands of the Youghiogheny--
and George couldn't tell a falsehood.
And McKeesport is following his
pious example.
No self-respecting chicken will
stay off the roost after the sun goes
down, nor on the other hand, will
linger in his sleeping quarters after
the sun rises. Now it happens that
the sun sets in McKeesport about 6
o'clock in the evening, and at this
hours it is customary for the hens and
ROSTERS to seek their perches. Ac-
cording to the length of the day they
should get over II hours sleep.
When they get Less at this season
Of the year they suffer.
And it happens also that in the
Tube City are numerous new con-
verters, and the light from these
when in blast is almost as brilliant
as the glow of the sun at noon.
When the light of these burns in
the heavens it rivals the gilt of the
northern lights. In fact, the skies
look as if they were illuminated by
the rosy tints of drawn. This is the
source of all the trouble. The rOos
tiers have opened their weather eyes
and catching sight of this strange
light, thought it was the break of
the day. Instantly they responded
to the inspiration to crow for the
dawn. The hens were awakened
and answering calls came from every
chicken house in town. Then the
chickens would leap down from the
perches and wander around all night
After few days insomnia struck
them and they began to die.
They were too self-respecting t.
admit after daylight really came
that they had been out all night
Consequently they suffered untold
misery.

First Maker of Matches.

In 1927 John Walker druggist
in a small English town tipped a
splint with sulphur chlorate of pot
ash and sulphide of antimony and
rubbed it on sanpaper and it burst
into flame. The druggirt had dis
covered the first friction-chemical
match the kind in use to-day. 1t is
called friction-chemical because it is
made by mixing certain chemicals
together and rubbing them.
Although Walkers match did not
require the bottle of acid it never
theless was not a good one. 1t
could be lighted only by hard rub
bling and it spluttered and threw fire
in all directions. In a few years,
however phosphorus was substituted

The skaters came upon the coyote
gnawing at the bone, which he drop

By following the track of the coy

Mrs. Moller was informed by the life

ALL MlLLl0NAlRES.
Every Citizen of Greater New
York Has a Right to
the Title.
New York world1

An asSiduous and painstaking read
err of the world writes to US from
Buffalo to protest against the exu'
berance of reporters in trying to
make out that there are so many
millionaires in New York" We
country people" he complaints,
"can swallow that they constitute a
large multitude anywhere from
10000 to 50,0O0-but when it comes
to crediting almost everybody to that
, class it goes beyond our containing
capacity"
We regard this as captious and
illnatured criticism which has its in
SEPARATION in certain provincial ig-
norance of the manners and customs
of New York. In this city the term
Millionaire" is a courtesy title
which belongs to everybody who
succeeds in escaping arrest on a
charge of vagrancy. Even in those
unfortunate cases the victim is en-
titled to the designation of form
er millionaire"
Each section Of the country has its
own courtesy titles which custom
and tradition confer. Just as Every
distinguished son of Kentucky has a
right to the prefix Colonel" so
every citizen of Maine with pro-
nounced views about the weather
and the constitution is Squire. In
Indiana every body is a Judge who
has ever been Justice of the Peace
or "A candidate for Justice of the
peace or who has aspired to any 9TH
er office of profit and trust. We
once heard and lndianian speak OF
Judge Beveridge. He meant our
distinguished and passionate friend
Albert j., the only native born
American who ever succeeded IN
thinking imperially, as Mr.. Cham
berlain would say.
In New York we are neither Squires
nor Colonies nor Judges, but mill
ionaires. If we come from Pitts
burg or have succeeded in lodging
the taxes on our personal property
we are multimillionaires. Those of
us that ride on the ferries in going
TO and from our work are million
aire yachtsmen. If we clerk in o
cigar store that is suspected of hav-
ing illicit relations with a poolroom
we are millionaire brokers.
Reporters confer these titles freely
and generously, as part of the amen
tiles of metropolitan existence,
precisely as one member of Congress
always refers to another member
of Congress as the gentleman from
such a state, whether he considers
the aforesaid colleague a gentleman
or not.
Measured by the sordid, material
istic standard of mere wealth. there
may be only few hundred or few
thousand citizens of New York who
have accumulated 81 900, 900 in more
or less tainted money. But this is
great city. 1t is not to be measured
merely by the yardstick of the store
keeper or weighed merely in the
bank balances Of the money chan
ger.

on the tip far anthony and the
change worked wonders. The match
could now be lighted with very little
rubbing and it was no longer necces
to have sanpaper upon which to rub
it. 1t would ignite when rubbed on
any dry surgace and there was nc
longer any spluttering. This was
the phosphorus match the mach
with which we are so familiar.
After the invention of the easily
lighted phosphorus matches there
was no longer use for the dip-splnt
or the strike-a.light. The old meth
DDS of getting blaze were gradu
ally laid aside and forgotten. The
first phosphorus matches were solo
at twenty-five cents a block a block
contained 24I matches and they
were used by but few. Now a hun.
dred matches can be brought for Z

used in a years. This on an avarag'

Jack Sweet, of Grub Gulch, in Ma

up five Yosemite stages. A report to
the Democrat is that he is under ar

The sherilf's office in Madeira has

arrest and Sheriff Jones has not been
