LITTLE WIFE DROVE HIM HOME.
Downfall Of 1urly Anarchist Saved
 Day for Reporter.

Gen. Bingham's reference to the pro fessional reds" as towards recalls the experience of New York Tribune re porter who went to Fourth street sa- loon on the day following Johann Most's first appearance in Cooper Union. Something about the young mans appearance, which was prob ably not in harmony with the sur roundings, attracted attention, and a burly, full-bearded man approached and asked him bluntly: Are you re. porter?" The affirmative reply drew forth torrent of abuse, which cul. minated in the commando: "Hinaus!" A barroom full of excited, halfdrunk' en anarchists against one slender young man was an unequal arrange ment. and the "h!naus" command was about to be obeyed when little wom- an with a child in her arms rushed In and made a straight line toward the bully. He was her husband. She called him vile names, upbraided him, and then ordered him to Co home quick" He resisted for moment, and then humbly followed the little woman while some of his friends shouted 'Hinaus!" Everybody laughed, the atmosphere in the anarchist center was changed and the reporter re- mained and got his story.

The Romance of HeIium,

Another chapter has been added to the romantic history of the 'sun ele- ment" by the brief telegram to Prof Dewar from Prof. Kamerlingh Ohnes of Leyden announcing that the latter has succeeded in converting helium Into solid. Helium was first discov- cred spectroscopically in the sun hence its name-by Sir Norman Lock. yer during the total solar eclipse of 1868. the first eclipse at which as, tronomers had the spectroscope al their disposal. It's existence on the earth was unknown until 1895, when Sir William Ramsey found it's distinc. tive yellow line in the spectrum of cleveite, and quite recently 1t has been found associated with radium, which may possibly prove to be made up of helium and lead. Owing to the intense cold required. all previous attempts to solidify helium have failed, though Prof Dewar reached 436 degrees Fahrenheit of frost in his liquid air and frozen hydrogen experiments. II is probable Prof. Ohnes has reached the absolute zero-4b0 degrees Fahren. heit of frost-to succeed in freezing helium.
