When eunpowder Was New.


"A curious feature about the evolu-
ton in methods of hunting was the
hesitation with which gunpowder was
taken up by the great mobiles. Not only
did it take quite a century to familiar
lie hunters with ii, but the evidence
that has come down to us shows that
the humble classes We're the first to
use it for shooting game. Maximilian,
ardent sportsman that he was, tells us
himself that ne could shoot farther
and with greater accuracy with his
crossbow than his keeper could with
the fire tube. TO prove this he tells us
the well known story of a certain
channels standing at 200 fathoms,
which, after being pronounced as too
far off by his henchman. who was arm
ed with one of the first sporting firearms
mentioned IN print, comes tumbling
down, pierced at the first attempt by
the emneror's bolt From other sources
we learn OF strict measures being
adopted toprevent poachers and wood

period when princes still used the
cumbrous crossbow and spear. It was

Station Derslicts.

In every station one may find those
who do not take trains or meet them,
nor attend these who do. Some come
to the waiting room only to Wait-re-
spectacle derelicts still hoping that
something will turn up, and wrecks
who have given up hope. Il il a
warm place In winter, the seats are
comfortable, and thoughtless passen-
gers often obligingly leave newspapers
behind them. 1t makes good waiting.
There are SO; few other places to wait

The Poisonous Black Sea.

53s5f ne TOlSOItQNS -BtHVN tSsCezs
The Black sea, which in some parts
has depth OF more than 9, 800 feet, ist
poisoned by snlphureted hydrogen
wherever the water is deeper than
Loo feet. This accounts for the curl
GUS fact that there is no organic life
below that depth, excepting perhaps
some bacteria of very low order, inn
pregnated with sulphur. The causes
for this phenomenon are explained
by the quick outflow Of the fresh wa.
ter. through the Bosporls, while salt
water coming from the Mediterranean
enters through deeper current into
the depths of the Black sea. The wa
tiers on the surface are, therefore, con-
trolled absolutely by horizontal cur
rents of considerable force, and verti-
cal currents which might carry the
noxious gases from the bottom to the
surface and fresh oxygen from the
surface to the bottom are hardly ever
noticeable. The water at great depths
is SO saturated with sulphuric gas by
the disintegration Of organic matter
sinking to the bottom by reason Of its
weight that no fish or other living be-
ing which needs oxygen for Its organic
system can exist beyond stated

Though Reports Coming From Both Sides
 Are Regarded With Suspicion
The Stern Repressve Measures Adopted by the Lisbon Government Indicate Fear That a Revolution is Forming.

Paris, Nov. 24.-Reports representing Portugal on the eve of revolution are received here with caution, as the dis patches coming direct from that COUP try are censored. Those which come Indirectly across the frontier are also hold under suspicion. Both the re- ports of the banishment of the crown prince and the mutiny of the navy are denied at the embassy here. nevertle- less, arrests. the suspension of news papers and other oppressive measures taen by Premier Franco, seem con- elusive that matters in Portugal are in a critical phase.
 The conditions were undoubtedly precipitated by King Carlos declara- ton of absolute faith in Premier Franco. and his intention to allow him to choose the time for holding an elec- ton for a cortes.

TRIAL OF HARRY THAW
 TO BE FURTHER DELAYED
The Attorneys for Both Sides Have Agreed
 to a PoStpOnement
On Account of the Nearness of the HOlidays--Tle Strengthening RumOr That Change of Venue Will Be Sought

New York. Nov. 24.-The second trial of Harry Thaw. set for week from tomorrow. will again be postponed. and probably will be caiied late in January. decision to ask for a post ponement having been agreed to by both sides. due partly to the fact that the selecting of jury would be doubly hard on account of the approach of the holidays and the prospect of the talesmen spending Christmas and New Years locked up. The fact that Thaw's counsel has applied to the court for permission to Inspect the secret evil dence presented before the lunacy commission during the first trial is an added cause of delay. The rumor that the attorneys of Thaw may apply for a change of venue. declaring that a fair trial in New York county is i'm possible. is gaining ground. Such a move would be based on the alleged unfrienliness of many local newspa- pers and the extent to which the evil dence was printed and read in this county. Jerome would oppose the change.

 Green Forest, rk

Dear Sir: you kn5 diamon ds don't go by size. So with paint. We make paint, one gallon of which goes as far as two of an- other and lasts twice as long; that's four to one.
 You know it is true in dia- monds; they don't go by the gallon, GO they?
 If you're going to paint your house, you go first to your paint CT and say: Pm going to paint; do you want the job? and what'll it cost.
 If he happens to know, he'll say: "Depends on the paint. I can do it for somewhere about S100 to $200, whichever you like; S100 will make 8 good job; S200 q poor one.
 And you, if you happen to have your wits, Fl say: "I'll take the good one, when'll you do it?''
 Painters ought, all, to know all about paint; and jewellers ought to be able to get a good job. We do what we can to help both.
 One gallon Devoe is better tha two of average paint, goes as far that is, your house will take about 20 gallons Deyoe and 40 of average paint-and Deyoe will wear a long time; the life of av- craze paint is very uncertain, it may be year, it may be five.
 Why is it that painters don't know about paint? Do jewellers know about diamonds? They know more than they tell some- times. There are painters and painters; so there are jewellers i; so there is paint, and the least gallons paint is Devoe.
 Yours truly
