Euus and the Weather.

Eggs of an abnormal size are being
laid in Devonshire. England, and an
agricultural expert has given it as his
opinion that this is due to changes in
the weather. At Seaton a duck has
laid an egg weighing half a pound; at
Ottery St Mary ducks egg was
found to contain three yolks; and at
South Leigh the largest goose's egg
ever recorded in the district has been
laid

They all attend chapel on most of the

Deaths from Anaesthetlcs.

A question recently put to the secre-
tary of state from the home depart
ment as to how many deaths occurred
during the year 1907 in the metropol-
tan area and in the other parts of
England and Wales respectively from
the effects of the administration of
anaesthetics ELECTED the reply that the
figures for the year 1907 were not yet
available, but according to the yer.
diets OF coroners' juries and the GER
tiiicates of medical practitioners there
were in the year 1906 GA deaths in
London and 119 in the remainder OF
England and Wales caused by anacs-
thctics administered for operations.
It was stated that there appeared No
be some reason 10 doubt whether the
certificates on which these returns
were based We're in all cases complete
and that there must necessarily some
times be difficulty in determining If
death under an anaesthetic was caused
by the anaesthetic II was proposed

EASY WAY OF MAKING MONEY.
Little Newsboy Well Rewarded for
His Services.

The average newsboy is an accom-
modating little cuss. An instance Of
this was noted recently on a busy
street corner in front of big down
town drug store A fashionable look
ing woman with a big hat and veil and
trimmings had just been into the drug
store to buy three or four stamps For
she had letters to mail When she
went TO the mail box a serious prob
lem confronted her. How was she
going to moisten the stamps without
raising her veil? And she had her veil
fixed just so. Rather than spoil the
precise arrangement Of her veil she
decided to seek outside aid.
Here, little boy she called pleas
antly to small newsie about a rod
from her Wont you come and let
me use your tongue for moment?"
OF course the boy went, wondering
what the catch was
Now, just lick this" she said hold
ing out two-cent stamp. The boy
licked it. and. the stamp thus sal
ivated she stuck it on letter. Two
or three more stamps were treated in
tho same manner, and all the letters
wore dropped into the box, Then
she handed the boy a dime for his
pains
The boy turned upon two or three
others who had been iibing at him
Easy money, wasn't it?' he retort-
ed. And they all agreed that it wasn't
bad.--Clevcland Plain Dealer !,

Labor Meetings in Every Important
City In the Country.

New York. April 13.-The repre-
sentattves of the American Federation
OF Labor have announced that besides
the mass meeting in Grand Central
palace here next Sunday evening to
protest against the labor decisions of
the United States supreme court and
to demand that congress pass the
labor amendment to the Sherman
antitrust law, mass meetings Of SINH
lar character had been called in every
important city in the. United States.
Many OF these meetings will be held
on sunday and some on Monday and
they estimate that an aggregate of
over one million workmen will attend
the meetings. The labor amendment
exempts labor organiza tons from the
provision against combinations in re-
straint Of trade.
General Organizer Herman Robin
son of the American Federation Of
Labor, who represents President Com
pers In the east, made the following
report later when the meeting was
over:
1.-THE meetings will not be so much
meetings of protest as to demand
remedial legislation. Probably at no
time in tn e. history Of organized labor
in the United States have so many
mass meetings been held simultan-
eously as will be held next Sunday and
Monday. The matter is of vital i'm
portance. not only on account of the
wording of the United States supreme
court decision, but on account of the
different interpretations that can be
put on it. 1t can be so construed as to
make it impossible for unions to en-
force their demands"

AT THE GRAND.
LYMAN TT. Howe's Pictures.

If there is any better sort of an en-
tertainment than good moving pic
ture show 1t is yet to be presented in
this part of the country. And of
course in the moving picture show way
there is none that can compare with
Lyman H. Howe's performance of this
sort. So it is no wonder that the
Grand was comfortably filled yesterday
afternoon and last night with audi
ences that grew greatly enthusiastic
over the fine pictures that were shown
and there were big crowds on hand
this afteroon and there will probably
be a larger one at the Grand tonight
when the series of pictures that made
such big hits yesterday will be shown
for the last time.
The batch of pictures that Mr.
Howe is showing this time cover
wide variety of subjects from wild
birds, wild animals to wild men in
their native haunts. There are also
any number of laugh-provoking pic
lures, and novelties in the way of an
automobile ride at the rate of eighty
miles an hour and tour through the
snow covered mountains of Switzer-
land. Then there is an excellent series
of pictures of life in the French navy;

what he is doing at the Novelty this

would have been either worshipped as
a God or killed as a witch. The won
derful cremation" and trunk"
illusions are marvellous. How Albini
makes his assistant appear and dis
appear is beyond explanation. Be-
sides there is other marvellous work
introduced by the Great Albini. His
handsome stage setting and the en-
tertaining monologue that he uses
with his act keeps his audience in
roars of laughter for over an hour.
Albini announces that on Friday
evening next he will give his expose

And then there is the Great Eddy
Family, wire dancers. jumpers and
acrobats, who get more pay for their
act than has ever been paid before in
this city for a vaudeville act. They
deserve it. Their work, or that of two
of the youngsters of the family,
Karoline and Rudolph, on the wire is
really wonderful. Rudolph does
something marvellous in the way of

fashion.
In addition to these two strong acts
Miss Bessie Allen puts on a singing

instrument, but makes bigger hit

In the cast of the company are
