A Clay Pipe Trick.

The ordinary clay pipe has under the
bowl projection or heel which it
would seem impossible to break from
the opposite side of an ordinary table
without injuring the bowl or breaking
the stem. Yet it can be done with ease
after two or three attempts Break Off
a piece of the stem-about a couple of
inches will do-and place it on the ia
bic so that it projects little over the
edge Ask a friend to hold the pipe
Obliquely, heel upward and the bowl
higher than the end of the stem He
can do this by inserting his little fin
ger in the bowl Now get your piece
in proper line with the stem of the
pipe and strike it forcibly and we'll
with the palm of your hand. The
piece viii fly across the table along
ahe stem and break the heel clean OFF
This seems amazing at first sight,
but any one with q straight eye"
can do it with very little practice.

Ice c-eam For Ocean Liners.

With the steadily increasing demand
for American made ice cream en- route
to and from the orient, an industry has
sprung up III California which fur
nishes to nearly all the ships of the
transpacific lines ice cream in large
blocks, sufficient in quantity and frozen
solidity to last the entire trip to Hong
kong and back to San Francisco again,
says Popular Mechanics TO cater to
this demand a plant has been con
structed in which the ice cream is
frozen without the aid of ice applied
in the usual way. The substitute is
cold brine, which circulates around the
freezing tanks after coming into con-
tact with ammonia pipes. BY this
process ice cream can be turned out
at the rate of a batch every eight min.
utes. The capacity Of the plant is
1000 gallons per day.

some difficulty in finding willing and
competent corps Of instructors among
the prisoners, inasmuch as several edu-
Gated oues who were approached de
clined on the ground that it would re-
quire too much mental refurbishing to
make themselves competent teachers
of those needing the more elementary
instruction. A faculty OF nine MEM
bers was finally obtained, and it is
noteworthy that all are college gradu-
ateS. The dean Of the faculty is a
Cambridge England man. while one
of the members is an Oxford man
Columbia has three representatives

count for others in their catalogues.
Both the Cambridge and oxford men
are serving sentences for forgery, va

are serving time for similar offenses.
Forgery has a close rival in perjury,
it is stated. and i'm the consultations
with prisoners preliminary to the es-
tablishment of the new educational
features the greatest surprise was ex-
pressed by New York city conyicts that
