Mcnamara had ridden in from the
4 creek and stopped for breakfast
with the Judge. He had asked for her
but on hearing the tale of the nights
adventure would not allow her to be
disturbed. Later he and the judge
had gone away together.
Although her judgment approved the
step she had contemplated the night
before. still the girl now felt strange
reluctance to meet Mcnamara. 1t is
true that she knew no Ill of him except
that implied in the accusations of ceE-
tain embittered men, and she was
aware that every strong and aggressive
character makes enemies in direct pro
portion to the qualities which lend
him greatness. Nevertheless she was
aware of an inner conflict that she has
not foreseen This man who sn con

She had ridden much of late, taking

she was glad to allow the men to talk

NEW ELECTRIC LAMP.
Bulb Which 1t Contains Said to
Burr 1900 Hours

Bulb which 1t Contains Said to
Burn $500 Hours.
Consul r. 7. Liefeld forwards from
Freiburg an abstract from a Paris
newspaper concerning a new electric
lamp which it is said will revolution
lie the present system of lighting. The
article was wired from Vienna and
reads:
IAN Austrian chemist, DR.. Hans
Kuzel, has, after many years hard
work, succeeded In constructing a new
electric lamp which he calls the Syrlus
lamp. As Is well known, incandescent
gaslight Is cheaper than electric light.
because the 1lament wires Of the light
are very expensive and the glass bulbs
soon wear out. DR.. Kuzel has now in
vented q new substitute for the glow
thread by forming out Of common and
cheap metals and metalloids colloids
In plastic mass which can be handled
like clay and which when dry be-
comes hard as stone. Out of this mass
very thin wire threads are then sharp
ened, which are OF uniform thickness
and OF great homogeneity. These two
characteristics are OF great value in
the technics Of incandescent lamps.
The Kuzel or Syrius lamp hardly
needs one-quarter of the electric cur
rent which the ordinary electric lamp
with a flament wire requires Expert
ments. ii is asserted, have shown that
the lamp can burn for $500 hours at
a stretch. Another advantage is that
the intensity of the light of the new
lamp always remains the same, the
lamp bulbs never become deadened. as
Is now the case. The new lamp, 1t IL
said. viii be put on the market soon.

According to reports received by the
Agricultural Department, about 1900
aeer were killed or captured in Mich
lgan last year, says the Kansas City
Star Pennsylvania is not usually
counted among the big game States,
yet nearly 700 deer were killed in the
mountains there In the same period.
I. S. Palmer, of the Agricultural De-
partment has embodied the reports from
In which there is big game in an article
printed in the Agricultural Depart
ment Year Book.
Michigan led in the number of deer
killed or captured. In Minnesota, Wis
consin and Texas deer were reported
plentiful. In the Adirondack noun
tains In New York about 200 deer were
killed Hundreds of deer were killed
or captured in Wyoming, Vermont and
Maine. In Wyoming more than 600
elk and 200 antelope were killed.
An invasion of Wyoming by Indians
resulted in serious consequences to the
game. Two bands OF Utes, each about
500 In number, entered the State the
latter part Of July and the first week
In August and penetrated northward In
Converse, Weston and Cook counties.
The Indians stripped the country OF
game wherever they Travelled. They
killed hundreds Of sage hens and many
antelope and deer. The game wardens
and State authorities were powerless
to prevent these depredations, and II
was only by the aid OF federal troops
that the Indians were finally returned
30 their reservations.
The demand for elk teeth was re-
sponsible, as In former years, for the
killing of many elk. In Washington q
few Indians from the Quinalt reserva.
ton were engaged in killing elk for
tusks in the Olympic mountains, but
through the efforts Of the Indian agent
the practice was promptly stopped. Nov
20 a carload Of trophies, composed OF
heads, skins, scalps and horns of many
elk killed In Wyoming and on the Dor
der Of the Yellowstone national parb
and shipped from Idaho to a taxider
mist In Los Angeles, were seized in the
latter city. Two Of the shippers were
arrested while unloading the car. Al

that they belonged to four teeth hunt
ers who had been operating in Western
Wyoming, north Of jackson Hole anC

the Sugar Trust When he was IS
years old he went into the refneries
at williamsburg to take up the practi-
cal work; thence went to the mercan-
tile department, and at the age of %
was admitted to partnership. He de
voted himself to the interests Of the
house, thoroughly mastered Its mercan-
tile side, made a study Of production
and markets, and In few years found
himself practically the manager Of the
concern, which had by that time grown
to enormous proportions. Foreseeing
even greater possibilities in the union
Of the sugar refining firms throughout
the country, mainly through his efforts
a combination Of fifteen of the princi-
pal sugar dealers was effected. This
so-called Sugar Trust" falling under
the ban Of the courts, a new and more
sweeping change was made by CONSOLE
dating all the various companies into
single great corporation. This was
done on January -, 1891, by the incor-
poration of the American Sugar Re-
fineries Company In the State Of New
oOAcIy. Liz VI lut COI-
poration, originally $5O,OOO,OOO was
later increased to $75,oO0,OoO, to allow
of the purchase Of four sugar compan-
les in Philadelphia. Henry o. Have
meyer was at first only vice president,
but eventually became president.
Havemeyer lived in a fine mansion
in East Sixty-sixth street, New York,
and also maintained residence at
Greenwich, Conn, where he gave the
town magnificent S250,OOO public
schoolhouse. The place where he died
-Menivale-was his favorite retreat
when he needed rest and seclusion. The
house on the place Is a small stone
lodge, unpretentious on the outside, but
handsomely furnished. 1t was always
kept ready for his visits. The estate
comprises more than 300 acres, only
a part of which is kept cleared and
used for breeding purposes, while the
wilder part is stocked with quail and
Imported game birds.
Havemeyer was an officer in eleven
other mammoth corporations besides
the Sugar Trust. His wealth was esti.
mated at S70,O0O,OOO.

The Chinese have eight instruments
for making their ritual music-the bell,
the flute, the drum, the sonorous stone,
the fife, the plume, the shield and the
AK. The last three make no music, but
are used as decoration or emblem In
the musical ceremonies and are emu
merated as musical instruments. In
every ceremony there are always two
instruments Of each kind, sometimes as
many as four or six, never an odd mum
Der, in order to emphasize the duality
Of the Chinese people. For instance
one drum announces the beginning OF
the music, and It's mate strikes the las
note: one bell calls, and its counter
part answers.
