Targets for AnoIers.

Not long ago several wood disks,
one foot in diameter, painted white,
and each provided with a line and a
lead weight, were placed in the pool
IN Central park, this city, by
the Anglers club, for targets for fly
and bait-casting. AS granitoid walk
ad1otns the eastern end of the pool,
and the targets furthest from the
casting platform are near this walk,
thousands of park visitors worry the
lives out of the policemen and park
employees with questions relative to
the purpose of the white disks. They
have been asked If the strange things
are early lilypads and-everything un-
der the sun an idle lounger can i'm
agine. One of the patrolmen told me
the other day that his naturally sweet
temper had been ruined since the ap-
pearance Of them things" But the
most curious questions of all was
fired at me one day as 1 watched the
anglers practicing.
Are those tin cans used in fish
breeding?" asked the visitor.
What cans?" 1 queried, not grasp
Ing his meaning.
why, those tin cans in the lake?"

Nebraska Parrots Disappeared

Only few naturalists and early ter
ritorial settlers know that parrots
were once numerous in Nebraska
Fifty years ago they were still seen
along the Missouri river in southeast
ern Nebraska, but disappeared very
suddenly after the first settlement in
that region. The Nebraska parrot
was the Carolina paroque (Cornus
Carolina). 1t had a beautiful green
and yellow pIumage, so striking in ap-
pearance as TO instantly arrest the at
tention of the early hunter
Beside this. the birds gathered in
large flocks and were so exceedingly
tame and simple that the whole flock
was easily killed. Add to this that
the birds We're fine eating and their
feathers attractive trophies of the
hunt, and the fate of the Nebraska
parrot was assured.

All you have to do is to get your boys

But hold on. How about the dam
age?
For many years there have been
learned discussions concerning the
force Of various grades of explosives.
The experts call it potential energy
Some time ago two famous French
men-Roux and Sarrau-made a Sc
ries of experiments to determine the
exact extent of the potential energy
Of the most powerful explosives and
the results of these experiments have
become the standards of the best in
formed experts on this subject. 1t
was learned from these studies that
the average potential energy of gun
powder is 4S0 foot-tons to the pound
You will observe, therefore, that there
would be a good deal of business"
concentrated In a gigantic firecracker
containing 1S7,500 pounds of gunpow-
der. In this immense cracker there
would be stored 90,000,0O0 foot-tons of
potential energy Startling as are
these figures, to the layman they mean |
little. Let us compare them to some |
object with which we are familiar.
Take the Flatiron building in New
York, for instance. Its weight is So
900 tons. Now, If there are $50 foot
tons of potential energy in each pound
Of gunpowder, it would require 104
pounds of gunpowder to blow up a
weighing $4,000 tons. This
mount of gunpowder, is scientifically
applied, would do the job completely
md raze the big structure from base
nent to roof. Such an explosive effort
IS this. however. represents but a
mall part of the force in the suppose
ional king of giant firecrackers, which
'ould contain 10000, 900 foot-tons OF
nergy-enough to blow up according
D exact mathematical calcuation)
800 structures similar to the Flatiron
uilding before you could say Jack
obinson,"
So, perhaps, after all, it may be as
ell to postpone the building of this
reat universal firecracker until our
sperts have learned a little better
)w to handle high explosives.
