Woodbne, n. j., is notable for
being the first city to be governed
wholly by Jews since the fall Of Jer-
usalem. Woodbine, according to
The Circle has no crime, no poverty,
and record of but one arrest Gen
tile who got drunk. Though the
people are unused to political rights,
the government runs smoothly.
How long this will continue remains
to be seen. The Jews, though in
dustrious and thrifty, seem to have
an inaptitudo for self government,
and their history is series OF down
fall and subjugation to other and
more domineering people. The
requisite quality for making
them Independent appears to de
lacking.

Death In . New Guise.

In a little village on the Hungarian
frontier not far from Presburg a
peasant woman recently received 400
kronen 1856, from her husband In
America. She promptly deposited # in
the local branch OF the postofice saw
ings bank and then the next day went
to withdraw the whole amount. The
bank official was somewhat surprised
and asked for an explanation, when
she said that Death had Appeared to
her during the night and Threatened to
take her away with him unless she had
the 400 kronen ready for him the next
night The gendarmerie We're commhni-
Gated with, and when Death made his
promised appearance he was found to
be very much alive in the person of the
local judge. The woman's money,
adds our Vienna correspondent who
sends the story, is still In the bank,
and the judge is in jail.-Pall Mall Ga

Denmark Original Of Thule7

Pytheas Of Massilia, who was about
contemporary with Alexander the
Great, is believed by some to have
referred to what we now know as Jut-
land by this name; but, as there Is
nothing to show that Pytheas had
visited Thule himself, ne was probably
rather vague about 1t. Since he seems
to have represented 1t as land Of the
midnight sun, others have identified
It as Iceland or even Greenland, and
the Thule of the Irish monks OF the
ninth century A. D. was certainly Ice

lay near the Orkney islands, must have

Telling the Time In the Dark With ths
Hands Removed, sS585

Il
Some time ago. d poor old peasant
who had invoked the kings wrath was
seized by the kings soldiers ana placed
in a dungeon, says the Scientific Ameri-
can. His majesty was present and had
the old man searched before being IN
carcerated. All his personal property
consisted Of a cheap watch, small
penknife, a shilling III cash and a lead
pencil The poor old man begged for
mercy, but his pleadings availed him
nothing, and he finally asked to be
granted the privilege of knowing the
length of his sentence. In reply the
king took his knife and watch. which
lay on the table. and, after taking the
knife and prying the hands of the
watch, returned to him his watch, say
ing, When you have learned to tell
the time correctly BY this watch in
your dungeon cell you will be liberat-
ed. KS The poor old man, knowing that
the king meant life sentence. stag
gered into his cell and wept bitterly.
Nevertheless he was liberated in TWEEN
ty-four hours, having acconpli the
wonderful task of telling the correct
time in the dark with a watch without
hands. How did he do it2 y
A watch derives Its power OF motion
from the recoil of the handspring and
the recoil is governed BY the balance
and lever. For instance, IL it takes
twenty -four full turns of the stem to
wind the watch and the watch runs
twenty -four hours when fully wound,
then for each turn of the stem 1T will
run one hour
A more simple method is to hold the
stem firmly between the fingers and
turn the watch around In winding the
watch to run for one hour the ratchet
on the handspring will click, say, thirty
times, which proves that this watch
runs two minutes for each click of the
ratchet which is attached to the main
spring. We will suppose it was II
O'clock noon when the watch was last
wound up and you now wish to know
the time. Beginning to wind It. up,
you count the clicks and find that be-
fore it is again wound up fully the
ratchet clicks $50 times. BY dividing
this by thirty we get four and one
third, or four hours and twenty min
utes, which added to IL o'clock makes
the hour 40 81 m.
While watches are not all exactly
alike, the principle is the same, and it
is simply q case of mental arithmetic
In order to be able to tell the time.
But yon must always remember the
time Of the starting point Or first wind
Ing and after that the time at the
last winding.
The above was the method used by
tile poor old peasant, whose life mostly
depended on his release and who was
Immediately rewarded by the king
with his liberty and life pension.

ABOUT RAILROAD TAXATION,

This subject of railroad taxation IS
probably becoming tiresome to most
readers but so long as enemies Of the
present tax system in West Virginia
continue to howl that the railroads
are being uniustly taxed it is well to
keep publishing the facts as they de
velop The railroads of West Virginia
pay on rough estimate about $500
per mile taxes. This is considerably
below the average Of some states.
Connecticut imposes taxes which av-
erage 81. go TO the mile If West Vir-
ginia taxed them at the same rate her
revenue from railroads would be In
creased fourfold Illinois taxes them
s45s a mile and Indiana $451. Massa-
chusetts tops the list with taxes av-
eraging 1858 to the mle. Michigan
soaks them to the extent OF 1854
while New Jersey, which is popularity
credited as being the railroad state,
get s1,047 n mile Pennsylvania, an
other state where the legislators are
ruling politicians, and the railroads
have never been accused of being or
unfair terms, takes 1864 from the
railroads. Ohio, where there is an in
cessant howl that the railroads do mo-
pay their share OF the taxes has al
income of 1919 a mile.
The figures make the West Virgini;
tax rate puny in comparison ant
prove that complaints egain:t tn
taxes she imposes are 'only for politi
cal purposes. --Wheeling News.
