Power of New Warships.

Each Dreadnought shell weighs $50
pounds, is discharged by 265 pounds
of cordite, the most powerful explo-
sive known, and leaves the guns muz-
zle at speed of 1000 miles an hour.
That means a mile in l 4-5 seconds.
If that shell kept up its initial velo-
city it would fly from England to New
York in an hour and half, around
the world in 121a hours and to the
moon in five days. The shells ener-
gy as it leaves the gun is equal to
the force required to pull Is or 20
50-car freight trains of 80 tons to each
car. A locomotive with such power
could draw train of loaded freight
cars four miles long. Scientists say
that if all the Dreadnoughts guns
could be combined into one and fired
the projectile would never return to
the earth, but would revolve forever
about it as tiny satellite. Single
handed, such warship as the Dread
naught could have won the War of
1872. If the Confederates had had

The Fate of the Chamois.

Switzerland is awakening to the
necessity of government Intervention
if the chamois is not to become as
extinct in the Alps as the buffalo in
America. In the Grisons the killing
of chamois was prohibited last year
Shooting licenses have been issued
this year, but next year again will be
a close year, and so will 1909 Police
reports show that between 1875 and
1905 the number of chamois slaugh-
tered in the canton reached the huge
total of 34,30S. If the 5000 chamois
still surviving in the Grisons are to be
preserved, and If the animal is not to
be lost in other cantons, something
more than alternate close years will
be needed When the sportsman took
the risks of the rocks and went to
shoot his chamois for food where he
found him there was no danger of ex-
termination. 1t is the safer but more
cruel system of "drives" which caus-
es whole herds to be shot down at
once-New York Tribune.

FINANCE ANU TRACE REVIEW
TRADE RETURNS IRREGULAR
UnseasonabIy High Temperatures Re
strict Sales of Heavy Garments.
Other Lines Affected.

r. G. Dun & Co.'s "Weekly Review
CT Trade" says:
Trade returns are irregular be-
cause of the erratic weather, un-
seasonably high temperatures restrict
ing sales of heavy weight wearing ap-
parel at some points, while business is
most satisfactory in colder sections.
Freight blockades were relieved to
some extent, but there is still much
complaint of tardy deliveries.
Mercantile collections are also more
prompt in some sections than in
others, but there is unanimity regard
ing the large amount of forward bust
ness on the books of manufacturing
plants and general confidence in the
future.
Building operations have been
greatly facilitated in the East by open
cause of the unprecedented rate of
output, all monthly shipments having
weather, maintaining activity in mar
kets for materials beyond the custo-
mary date. Prices of fall commodi-
ties declined about | per cent during
December.

quent, especially in respect to structur-
al shapes, and few plants are roll
ing billets in the structural mills,
which relieves the pressure very much
in that department.
Forward business in pig iron is very
heavy at Pittsburg, orders covering
the output of some furnaces for al
most the entire year, prices varying
according to the date of delivery, but
sales are not reported at less than
$21. so to S22 90, valley furnaces. This
strength is the more remarkable be-
been eclipsed in December.
Demand for cotton goods in the pri'
mary markets is somewhat less ur-
gent.
Higher prices have prevailed at the
leading commodity exchanges. In
wheat there was a natural reaction
from the preceding decline as the
short account took profits, and the re-
covery was carried still further in re-
sponse to reports from winter wheat
States that sharp fall in temperature

Respect for German Policemen.

Herr Muerbe, a Dresden school
master, on visiting Halle lately, went
up to policeman, and touching his
hat, begged in a courteous tone to be
directed to his destination. The po-
liceman stared at him, and told him
that if he desired a reply he must
speak more respectfully-hi interro-
gator must in fact take off his hat.
This was too much for Herr Muerbe,
who asked the policeman not to be
insolent. Legal proceedings followed,
and the Court has decided that, while
Herr Muerbe was not obliged to take
off his hat when addressing police
man, he must pay fine Of 10 marks
for using the word "insolent." Lon

when Abraham Lincoln was nearly
suffocated with trouble New troops
were required and money needed.
Rockefeller, then young man, had
not as yet been accused of being a
Millionaire. He was strong for the
Union, however. His office was at
that time on River street, Cleveland.
Captain Scofield came in one day with
30 raw recruits. The young business

SCALY ERUPTION ON BODY.
Doctors and Remedies Fruitless-Suf.

When | had been suffering for about a
month the sores began to heal, but small,

the sores until the blood began to flow.

days, but scaly places would appear again
and the itching would accompany them.

tions by this time had appeared on every

hands. The best doctor in my native

doses and salve. | then used to bathe

Indians Word Was Good.

Indian devotion to a pledge is not a
myth; it survives to this day. At the
May term of court at Vintia Charles
Boiling pleaded guilty before Judge
Parker at Sallisaw. He was sentenc-
ed to 60 days in the county jail and
to pay fine of S25. He asked to be
permitted to stay out of Jail and make
crop in order to provide for his
family, and Judge Parker granted the
request, releasing Boiling, who is a
Cherokee, on a promise to appear at
Vinita on December l to begin his
sentence. Boiling was waiting at the
Court House one morning last week
when the doors were opened and is
now in Jail serving his sentence. He
says his crop is gathered, and his
family is provided for during the
winter.-Kansas City Journal.

Ancient Glass Mirrors.

An American scientist has lately
interested the French Academy of
Sciences in his researches concerning
the glass mirrors that were used in
ancient times in Thrace and Egypt.
These mirrors were backed with a
highly polished metal, the nature of
which has been in question for many
years. The American scientist has
discovered that the metal was almost
pure lead, and he believes that the
method of manufacture was to pour
the molten lead on the concave sur
face of discs cut from balloons of
blown glass. In consequence of their
shape the mirrors minimized the
images of objects looked at in them
