THE STORY OF THE OUTLAW.
Bad Men of the West Classified ard
Analysed.

Emerson Hough constitutes himself
the historian of the outlaw, believing
the truth about the bad man" of the
west is sufficiently thrilling and mean
ing to present merely truth. There
were outlaws of all nationalitieS, &C.
cording to Mr.. Hough, but the prize
taker among them was the western
white bad man, who in land which
the law could not protect, like the
great region on the frontier, reverted
to the ways of Goth and Teuton for
bears. There were genuine bad men
and imitation bad men, and Mr..
Hough thus differentiates them:
Throughout the west there are two
sorts of wolves-the coyote and the
gray wolf Either will kill and both
are lovers of blood. One is yellow at
heart and the other is game all the
way through Outwardly both are
wolves, and in appearance they some
times grade toward each other so
closely it is hard to determine the
species. The gray wolf is warrior
and is respected, the coyote is a
sneak and a murderer, and his name
is a term of reproach throughout the
west"

Excludes Drauqhts.

Fresh-air cranks, who believe In
having an abundance of fresh air dur
ing the sleeping hours, will find the
ventilating canopy of interest. The
problem of properly ventilating
room to allow the admission OF all
the fresh air possible is often hard to
solve, as it is invariably impossible to
prevent draughts, which naturally
must be avoided. By the use OF the
ventilating canopy, the sleeper is per-
fectly safe from draughts, it being
even possible to place the bed in front
of the open window. The framework
of the canopy is secured firmly to the
head of the bed, the covering being
placed over all portions but the front.
The head and upper portion OF the
body are thus protected from all
draughts, the fresh air, nevertheless,
having full egress in front.

Some idea of the work done by sub
marine divers in recovering treasure
from sunken ships can be gotten from
the following figures just published:
From the steamship Malabar was re-
covered more than $1,250,0OO; from
the steamship Alphonso XII, $780,
900: from the steamship Ham1lla
Mitchell, s25O.OO0, and from the steam
ship Carnatic, 100000. The complete
list is long, but these figures from
Popular Mechanics give an idea OF the
enormous value of the treasures which
the greedy waves have swallowed and
the inducement to invest large capl-
tai, construct ingenious and expensive
machinery, and run great risks IN
raising "watered' stock.

TURNED OUT BY NATURE.
Many Things OF Use That the Old
Dame Manufactures.

Nature is something Of manufac-
turer herself In the case of certain
cactus marvellous natural pottery is
produced. Woodpeckers excavate
nests in the trunk and branches, and
to protect itself the plant exudes
sticky juice, which bardens, forming
woody lining to the holes made by the
birds. Eventually the cactus dies and
withers away, but the wooden bowls
remain. AS a weaver nature also pro-
duces fine work Certain tree barks
and leaves furnish excellent cloth, as,
for instant, the famous tapa cloth used
in the South sea islands. Nature is
glass-maker, too. By discharging her
lightning into beds of quartz sand she
forms exquisite little pipes OF glass.
She makes valuable ropes OF various
kinds in the shape of tropical vines
and creepers, and she is even lace
maker, as witness the lace tree OF the
West Indies.-Indian Review.

Metals in Bad Odor.

A German scientist has just de-
clared that every metal has its
characteristic odor. Not every one
can detect the odor OF cold
tin. copper or aluminium, but when
pieces of such metals are heat
ed to a moderate degree they give
off strong smells, distinguishable by
anybody. At higher temperatures
metals lose all trace of smell, bat
again give off an odor on being heat
ed after lapse of several hours in a
cold state. Coined silver and gold
often have a suspicious faint.

Microphone as Fire Damp Detecter.

The fire damp detecter Of M. Hardy,
a Frenchman. is an ingenious applica-
ton of the microphone. Two pipes OF
equal pitch, one in the mine and the
other above ground, are sounded SIM
ultaneously, and the sound waves
impinge on microphones connected IN
series with a telephone. If both pipes
are in pure air clear note Is heard
in the telephone. If the pipes are In
air of different density beats are
heard, and these give warning OF the
presence of fire damp in the mine.

The schooner left Philadelphia No

life boats and found the Lawson an
chored i'll a dangerous position off
Gunncr's Rock. The seas were run
ming high and the gale was incrcas-

their efforts at rescue were useless.
One of the boats returned for tug
and the other was compelled to put
back to shore because Of the cNhaus-
tioa of the men. During their alb
sence the Thomas w. Lawson turn

is not expected to live, while Capt.
Dow is suffering from fractured
arm. His rescue was effected af-
ter the most superhuman efforts of
the life savers and the gallantry
of frederick Hicks, the son Of Pilot
Hicks, who accompanied them on
their second trip i'll the hope of find
ing his father.
Late this afternoon, after a long
search, Capt. Dow and Engineer
Rowe were seen alive on the Hell

Hicks plunged into the boiling seas

Captain hauled back to the boat the
engineer, who was practically unin-
Jured. After assisting Capt. Dow
Hicks was able to reach the boat un-
aided, but The effort exhausted him
and the doctors ordered him to re-
main quiet tonight. Capt. Dow told
the life savers that when he found
his vessel was doomed he. the engin-
eer and the pilot lashed themselves
to the mizzen rigging. When the
masts fell the captain and The en-
