,DOuble EGGS.

The production of one egg within an
other is of frequent occurrence, and,
though now and then recorded as a
curiosity, the so called phenomenon
is very easily accounted for It is
invariably caused by overstimulation
Of the system by feeding. The ovum,
or yolk, when mature is received into
the upper part Of the oviduct, tube
nearly two feet in length in the do
nestle fowl, and in it's descent is cloth
ed successfully with the layers of al
bumen, or white, the lining membrane
of the shell, and finally on arriving at
the classifying portion of the oviduct Is
enveloped in shell itself Ordinarily
the egg is then expelled, but in the
case Of the product of a double yolked
egg asreverse action Of the oviduct
takes place, and the egg is carried
back, meets with another ovum and
redescends with it, the two being sur
rounded together with albumen, mem
brane and shell.

The Owner and the Visitor.

His house, the first he had ever
owned, being nearly finished, the Flat
bush man went forth one fine after
noon to inspect it, As he entered the
front door he observed well dressed
man standing within, apparently adj
miring the beauties of construction and
decoration In an instant the pride OF
the owner swelled within him. Here
was where he would make the visitor
verdant with envy and, incidentally
intercept few bouquets for himself
Stepping up to the stranger. he re-
marked:
'It's beautiful house, isn't it? It's
worth every cent Of the investment
and great deal more
"You are right" replied the stranger
you are, l suppose"
''Yes I'm the owner" interrupted
the other, land just let me tell you
that there are not many men round
here who own as fine a house as this" "
81 quite believe you," serenely an
swered the visitor. I'm the man, you
see, who holds the first mortgage on
it."-Brooklyn Eagle.

Rickshaws and Dandies.

In the mountain districts of India
the principal vehicles of passenger
conveyance are the rickshaw and the
dandy, with which Rudyard Kipling
has made us familiar. The rickshaw
is pushed and pulled through the
streets and on the roads leading out
into the country by four coolies, and
the dandy is carried on the shout
ders of four and sometimes six coolies.
Saddle ponies are also used to some ex-
tent but most of the inhabitants and
quite all visitors use the rickshaw and
dandy. The latter Is constructed on
the plan Of sleigh box, but longer. A
pole is attached fore and aft, which is
long enough to give a springy motion
when the coolies are walking and trot-
ting. A crosspiece rests on the shout
ders of the coolies and is shifted now
and then from one shoulder to the 9th
err for rest. By the command of the
cody In charge this shift Is made 81
simultaneously.

KIDNAPPING rs EXPLAINED
Girl Stole Babe Presumably to Force
Husband to Return From
the West

Superior, Wis. June 1.-The lnyS-
terry in connection with the kidnaI in.
of the Giauque baby from Minneapolis
which has been puzzling the police of
that city ever since the baby was re-
covered and the nurse arrested. has
been apparently cleared up through
the instrumentality of Mr.. and Mrs.
Julius Puleznski of this city. who
have been we'll acquainted with the
JarmuZek woman.
The story, as told by these peOpe.
is that the girl has never had child
OF her own. They say that she was IN
love with status Jarmuzek and was
crazy to have him marry her. AS a
statutory charge. She told the mu-
nicipal Judge here, falsely it is sad.
that she was to give birth to a child
in a few months and the result was
that the man married her.
After the couple had been marr.e1
stantly. Judge Parker was surpI-s ed
that the girl did not have child and
told her that so long as they had no
children there was no use in their liv-
ing together as they could never get
along. He dropped the remark, how
ever, that if they had any children it
would be all right to force Jarmuzek
to live with her and support the
family.
The theory is that she stole this
Giauque baby and was going to palm
it off as her own, and in this way get
the police to force her husband to come
back and support her child.

British Army's First Trousers.

Perhaps the army revolution of deep
est interest to the soldier himself was
that effected in 1928, when for the first
time he was put in trousers. The an
nouncement from the horse guards
took the following remarkable form:
''His majesty has been pleased to ap-
prove Of the discontinuance of breech-
es, leggings and shoes as part Of the
clothing of the infantry soldiers and OF
blue gray cloth trousers and half boots
being substituted" In order to indem-
Nifty the clothing cOlonels"s for any
hardship which the new order might
cause it was decided that these gentle
men should no longer be called upon
to provide the waistcoat of Tommy,
but that Tommy should himself supply
it out of his shilling day. To reas-
sure him it wts pointed out that he
was in a position to do so with COM
fort, because he would no longer have

Castle Garden.

Castle Garden was built by the Unit
ed States in 1907 from the plans Of
Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Williams,
G. E., and was called Fort Clinton. In
1922 it was coded to New York city. In
1924 it became place Of amusement
and about 1926 got the name Of Castle
Garden. In 1916 there were Ethiopian
Ministries there, in 184749 theatrical
companies played there, and in 1850
Jenny Lind sang there. In 1855 it was
closed as a place of amusement, and
the commissioners Of immigration took
it as an immigrant depot. In 1870 it
suffered from fire, and on July 8, 1876,
it was burned to the ground. It was
rebuilt at once. In 1892 the depot was
moved to Ellis island, and Castle Gar
den reverted to the city. which In 1896
opened an aquarium there.

Louis xy..s F1aved diamond.

"Comte," said Louis XIV. to the Count
de ST. German, will you help me to
gain 1000 francs? I have got here a
diamond with a flaw, valued at 5000
francs. It would be worth 10000 If 1t
were flawless." After having the dfa-
mond carefully weighed Louis handed
1t to the count, who examined it mi
nutely and replied, ''It might be done,
sire, if you will allow me to keep the
stone for month" A month later he
brought back the diamond almost in
appreciably less in weight, but flaw
less. The jeweler to whom friend of
Louis offered it for sale gave $500
francs for it, but the king repurchased
1t as curiosity. II. P.'s London

would carry his opinion into the trial.
that he could not presume the defend

In a jOintintervicw with barrow and
Richardson after the empaneling of
the jury, the following statement was
made by them: The Haywood jury
is made up of eight Republicans, three
Democrats and one Prohibitionist
::
There is no man on the jury who
works for wages or who has ever be-
longe0 to a labor organiZat ton except
ing Burns. who was 4 member of the
carpenters union fourteen years ago.
or who has ever been student OF
trades unionism or the labor question.
"In the 200 or odd jurors drawn not
more than three trades unionists were
placed in the panel. and these were ex-
-cused for conscientious objections to
capital punishment and fixed opinions
The jurors drawn have been mainly
farmers. interspersed with a large
number of bankers and some business
men. The jurors appear to be men
of honest purposes, determined TO give
the defendant fair trial. but it is
uniformerly made up of a class to
which none of the defendants ever be-
lOnged. and who have no natural kim
ship to labor organizations.
''In addition to this. they are drawn
from small county almost wholly
agricultural. and each member for a
year and a half has read little about
the case except what has been con-
tanned in the Boise daily papers, and
this has uniformerly been hostile to the
defendants. Nearly all of them adj
mitted that they had formed opinions
and impressions from what they read
and necessarily these must have been
against the defendant

said: ''We are thoroughly satisfied
with the jury. We have twelve fair.

Motorists all over the country know

they try their speed. Forty miles an
hour is about the limit. Farmers who
have been caught on this road have
been compelled to pull out to the fence,

SEND THEM TO IAIL7

Professor Carl c. Plehn, who Is
collecting the statistics of perjury bS
tax payers for the United States gov
eminent. says the tax dodger is de-
fau!ter. Taxes. he says, are debts OF
the highest obligation, first liens prior
to all other debts. The man who hides
his property, legally subject to taxa
ton, or makes a false return, sworn
to or otherwise, in order to- escape
payment Of his just dues to the state
is a defaulted. He is every whit as
bad defaulter, or even a worse one,
than he who conceals his property
from his private creditors.
+ Who ever heard of anyone going to
Jail for perjury in connection with
false tax return? asks the professor,
and complains that sound public sent1-
ment ought to make it possible to fol-
low the tax defaulter as easily as 1t is
to follow and prosecute other default
ers. But public sentiment does not
apparently regard the tax defaulter as
IL criminal, possibly because there are
enough of them to make public opin-
ion of their own.
Professor Plehn's complaint is Just
1ne. Who ever heard of a man who
concealed his property being sent to
Jail? Sometimes we catch him at it
and force him to turn over $4,000 or
$4,000 that he has beaten the poorer
tax payer out Of, but who ever heard
of one of these men in Jail?
suppose we sent a bunch of these
tax defaulters to Jail, would it have a
wholesome effect on the assessors
work? And suppose now and then an
assessor were sent to Jail for Standing
in" with the heavy tax payer, how long
would it take to make assessors care
full? IS
We are scarcely giving the Jail SEN
tence the chance it deserves as a re-
formatory and preventive influence.
