Why look at the history OF the cram
berry. Many a cranberry's life has
been crushed out of it, or worse fate
has overtaken it in being stewed to
death. Talk about the horrors of the
Inauisition. Why not treat the cram
berry right? Although it is domes-
tic fruit, why not have a closed season
for few weeks every year in order to
allow it to recuperate from the ravages
of the holiday season. Be humane.
Try to understand the character of the
downtrodden cranberry.

How to Sink a BattIeshIp.
rom the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
 The firing tests of British battleshps in their firing on the old battleship Hero are very interesting in one respect which appears to be of such importance that it may lead to new method of at- tacking battleships.
 After hitting the Hero four times she sank, and, strange to say. without hay ing her underwater armor pierced. This was known from the fact that shells were used which do not perforate armor.
 The experts believe that in all proba- bility one of the high explosive shells struck the water at little distance from the ship, continued it's course under water for a short distance and struck the Hero at her most sensitive point, namely, below her armor, and therefore acted like a torpedo
 Further experiments are being made to determine whether shells striking the water close to target can be counted on to act in this way.
 That shells striking the water continue on their course for short distance was well known, but no one ever supposed that this could be utilized to advantage in actual battle.

Begun Yesterday,

that no instructed delegates be sent to the convention from the important states.
 Rumor has 1t that when enough dele gates are left uninstrueted to give Gov ernor Johnson a show for the nomination, a Loehinvar will come out of the east in the person of Lieutenant Governor Chan Ter and carry off the prize. The fine point of the game is to so manage 1t that there will be enough nnpledged dele gates to permit this or any other plan to carry.
 Argument In Use. The argument used in the Johnson and chanler camps is that both have carried the states in which they live Their ad herents point to Tilden, who, when gover- nor of New York, was nominated and scored ahead of Hayes in the popular vote They also point to Cleveland, who while governor of New York, won over Blaine.
 Give us,' they say, "a man who has carried his own state, and who can carry it again.
 These clouds on the horizon warn the Bryan adherents to make hay while there are still delegates to get. Meantime Denver is planning for the convention with great eclat, decorating and building and preparing to spend more than Sl00000 to astonish the visitors with the warmth of westefn hospitality.

The Wizard.

From Harper's Weekly.
 Some years ago an expedition from the University of Pennsylvania was sent to one of our southern states for the pur- pose of observing a solar eclipse.
 The day before the event one of the professors said to an old darky belonging to the household wherein the scientists were quartered:
 ''rom, if you will watch your chickens tomorrow morning you'll find that they'll all go to roost at Il o'clock"
 Tom was, of course, skeptical; but at the appointed hour the heavens were carkened, and the chickens retired to roost. At this the negros amazement showed no bounds, and he sought out the scientist
 ''Perfesser," said he, 'how long ago did you know dem chickens would go to roost?'
 About a year ago. said the professor. smilingly.
 Jewell, eff dat don't beat all' was the darky's comment. "Perfesser, year ago dem chickens want even hatched!'
