AT LEAST A MONTH.
And Perhaps Longer the Strike is Elk

Chicago, Aug. 2O-The telegraph

longer. This is the belief of not only
the strikers but the company officials.
The latter are emphatic in the state
ment that no agreement will ever be
made with the strikers. President
Clowry made one agreement through
Commissioner of Labor Neill they
state and as that was violated another
will not be made.

Couldn't Ruffls Hi. Temper.

Quincy Tufts, an old time dealer
in mems furnishings, whose place
of business was in the old Herald
building, on Washington street,
Boston, was celebrated for mis- ex-
treme courtesy in dealing with try
ing customers. On one occasion a
man whom we will call MI. A. re-
marked OH this trait to another
man, whom we will call Mr.. B.,
whereupon the latter laid a wager
that he could ruff1e the temper of
Mr.. Tufts. The wager was accept
ed, and the two repaired to Mr..
Tufts place of business. Mr.. B.
asked to see samples of mems suit
ings. Mr.. Tufts produced piece aft
or piece of cloth until the supply
was exhausted, and Mr.. B., select
ing one, said, II will take just 1
cents worth of this" Mr.. Tufts
took a penny from his pocket and,
placing it upon the cloth, with .
piece of chalk drew an outline upon
the cloth and cut out piece Of it
and with the utmost politeness
handed it to Mr.. B. The wager was
paid.-Boston Herald.

ODD CASE OF COMBUSTION.
Rossbushss Shipped In Wet Moss Al.

Rossbushss Shipped In Wet Moss Al.
most Burned Up.
A peculiar case of spontaneous
combustion or something like it is
described by writer in Casters
Magazine.
On Feb. ~, 1906, two large re-
frigerator cars of young rosebushes
were received at Hannibal, NO., from
q nursery in California. They we're
shipped in wooden cases containing
numerous auger holes for ventila
ton and were carefully packed with
wet sphagnum, or California swamp
moss, to prevent chatting and to sup
port their vitality.
No ice was put in the cooling
tanks, and the covers of these as
we'll as all other openings in the
cars were closed as tightly as posi-
Bile. The cars were ten days in
transit. The outside temperature
was go degrees F. at the start and
10 degrees at the end of the trip.
Upon arrival steam was issuing
from every crevice of the cars
Upon removing the tank covers it
rushed out in large volume. The
doors were opened, and ice was put
in the tanks. The free circulation
of cold air soon cooled the contents
Of the cars.
In unloading it was discovered
that some of the upper layers of
boxes were badly damaged by heat,
which naturally was most intense
near the top of the cars. No signs
Of actual combustion were found,
but this would probably have oc-
Cured in short time had not the
cars been quickly cooled.
The temperature must have been
nearly up to the burning point, az
many of the green stems of these
plants were black and brittle.

PAGANINrs BURIALs.
Remarkable Wanderinss Of the Famous
Musieian's Remains.

Paganini died at Nice in 1910,
and, although he made confession,
he did not receive the sacrament
for medical reasons, which the doc
tor stated in writing. The bishop
refused Christian burial to the
body, and the son appealed to the
Nice tribunal, which upheld the
bishop, but a further appeal was
nade to Rome. During this delay
the body, incompletely embalmed,
Eas deposited at the hospital. From
thence the coffin was removed to a
lazaretto at Villefranche.
After a month the authorities
there determined to get rid of it
and deposited it by the side of a
stream formed by the refuse COM
ing from an oil mill. After some
days the Comte de Cessoles, a
friend of Paganini, decided to re-
move the body, which he did by
night, having it carried along the
seashore in storm to the Cape st.
Hospice.
Here it was buried and remained
for two years, when the great vio-
linist's son determined to take his
fathers body to Genoa to be buried
there. The ship, however, was re-
fused admittance at this place, as it
had come originally from Mar
seilles, where there was cholera, so
the body was put into hole in the
rock of tiny uninhabited island
near Cannes.
Five years later the body was
taken to Gajona, near Parma, and
buried there on Paganini's own
property. This was in 1s45. In
1853 it was exhumed and re-em-
balmed. In 1876, thirty-six years
after the musicians death, the
papal court authorized burial in q
church at Parma with Christian
rites. Twice again was the. body
exhumed, apparently out of curiosi-
ty, and finally pane Of glass was
put into the coffin to render visible
the face, which had been preserved.

A BALLOON IN. THE AIR.
The Delicate Balance Of the oiaansie
Bag Of Gas.

OSO 81 000s
It is while discharging ballast to
enter the higher attitudes that YOU
get your first idea of the hair trig-
ger balance of the giant contri7-
ance keeping you afloat. Your pi-
lot takes small wooden scoop, no
larger than an ordinary sized soup
ladle, digs into one of the sand bags
and scatters q single "shovelful"
overheard. Up darts your balloon
100, 200, 300 feet. An ordinary
sized bottle of beer spilled over
board lghtens the balloon enough
to send it up $50 feet, and if you
happen to be over a vacant field
where you can drop the bottle your
self without risk Of killing any one
the release of this weight will send
you up another 300 feet. So deli
cately poised is your balloon once
it has struck its balance that you
could push it up or pull it down
from 300 to 400 feet with strength
equal to that of your little finger.
When a mere cloud passes be-
tween you and the sun, causing in
slant contraction of the gas in the
balloon, the envelope becomes bag
81 and flaccid at once, and you be-
gin to fall, sometimes at the rate Of
a thousand feet minute, although
you have no warning of this other
than the statoscope and no sensa-
ton except the thrill as you see the
alarming rapidity with which the
earth comes nearer to you. Three
or four scoopfuls of sand may be
necessary to sacrifice before you
again strike your balance, and tho
next moment the sun darts from
behind the cloud, warns the bal
loon, and the envelope tautens al
most with a bang, and you go kit
ing upward under your iightened
load until you are obliged to open
the escape valve to let out gas to
prevent going up above your orig
inal level. Then it is that you be-
gin to understand why the bugbear
of the aeronaut is alternate cloud
and sunshine, why he prefers sail
ing during the night and why, if he
does sail throughout the day, he
mounts high above the clouds in
continuous sunshine, where the VOL
ume of gas in the balloon remains
constant.-A. W. Rolker in Amari.
