younger players who are being tried out.
played against Princeton's team last night
In the st. Nicholas Skating Rink. Last
week Princeton defeated this team and a
return match was arranged. Last night
the Crescent team won by score of goals

last week was that they lacked condition
and after playing for fifteen minutes were
tired out They were in better condition
last night and managed to keep the Prince
ton players on the defensive most OF the
evening.
The first goal was scored by Hardy after
Ave minutes Of play. Nine minutes later
Coke for Prince ton succeeded in sending
the puck into the Crescent cage from
scrimmage and then. just before time was
up in the half. Stuart scored for the Cres-
cents Kennedy played on the. Crescent

That was Just what caused the trouble.

II made the crowd doubly sore to see
those who came In cabs and automobiles
roll up TO the doors and get admission; II
didn't do any good to explain that these
folks had box seats. The crowd thought
IL was gross favoritism TO those who had
automobiles.
The speclllators were wild. They have
only until the first Of the year to prosecute
their trade. One OF then rushed up TO
Harry Pollok, who was interested in the
management OF the race, and said: POL

we were speculators and got rs cents

Pollok denied he or any one else had sold

The Poniatowskis.

A good story is told of Prince Jo-
seph Poniatowski, the father Of the
Prince Stanislas Poniatowski who died
the other day in Paris. When NapO-
leon III. came to the throne he was the
ambassador from Tuscany to France,
and the emperor naturalized him and
made him a senator. There was
good deal Of hostility to the nomina-
ton, and when the new senator came
to take his seat the cry was raised,
"He is not Frenchmanw The presi-
dent of the senate was, however, equal
to the occasion. He recalled the fact
that the princes father had served I'M
der the first Napoleon, who had made
him a marshal, and he added, when
Marshal Poniatowski preserved the
French army at Leipsic nobody trOu-
bled himself to inquire whether he was
a French citizen or not.' The situation
was saved.

Fun Turned to Hard Work.

A sentence, probably unique in this
country, was recently pronounced by
magistrate in Everett, Mass. Two
youngsters of twelve years had been
convicted of throwing stones, to tbs
destruction of property and the peril 6
passersby. Just how to deal with suck
youthful offenders was a puzzle for
the court for awhile, but after due
thought the Judge hit upon the happy
idea OF turning the youngsters ''fun'
into a penalty. He ordered a pole
sergeant to take the boys back to the
lot where they had been captured and
make them spend q half hour in throw
ing stones us fast as they could pick
them up. The sergeant obeyed orders
to the letter, and the youngsters got
enough Of stone throwing to last them
the rest of their lives. q

CLAMP For o1orHEs11NEs.

bolt hole is provided with a keyway,
In which a pin fitted in the bolt is
received. This prevents the bolt from
rotating with respect Of the web, but
permits it to slide axially therein. The
bolt head is formed with wings, pref
erably three in number, which are
bent downward. A spring, D, is coil
ed about the shank of the bolt beneath
the head and serves to space the lat
ter above the web. Threaded on to
the bolt and bearing against the I'M
derside of the web is wing nut, e.
The method of applying the clamp is
very simple. One end of the rope or
clothesline is passed through one Of
the barrels and knotted to prevent it
from slipping out The opposite end
of the line is then passed through the
other barrel, and the end is wound
around the bolt under the concave
face Of the head. A few turns of the
wing nut e then serve to clamp the
head G on the rope and hold it in set
position. Mr.. William Mullin of 31O6

TEACHER BECOMES INSANE
Miss Julia Carney of Bristol a Deaf
Mute Becomes Violently Insane

Miss Julia Carney, twenty-five years
of age Of the town of Bristol, was
brought to Kenosha this afternoon for
an examination into her mental condi-
ton. Miss Carney is deaf mute and
up to year ago she had been an in
structor in the state school for the
deaf at Delavan. A year ago she was
forced to give up the work Of teaching
on account of extreme nervousness. Last
Sunday she broke down completely and
since that time she had been growing
worse. Last night she became so vio-
lently insane that it was impossible for
her family to take care Of her. Sheriff
Pfennig went out with an automobile
this morning and brought the unfortu-
nate young woman to Kenosha Doc
tors Adams of Kenosha and DR.. Lowe
of Pleasant Prairie, are conducting the
examination this afternoon and there
is no doubt but that the young woman
will be sent to the state hospital at
Mendoza for treatment.

Potato Growing Without Soil.

A somewhat novel method of grow
ing young potatoes during the autumn
and winter months has been lately dis
covered. It has been found, says a
writer in the One and All Gardening,
that two-year-old tubers, if taken in
the early autumn and placed in a dark,
dry place, will spe edily commence to
bud off little potatoes. These may be
allowed to increase in size until they
are about as big as a large walnut,
when they may be gathered for the ia
BILE. 1t is essential that the place in
which the tubers are grown should be
perfectly dark; otherwise they will ex-
pend their energies in a vain endea7or
to produce roots and leaves, and no
small potatoes will result

A Great Kew Collector.

J. H. A. Klauder, a millionaire art
connoisseur Of Philadelphia, is one of
the few Americans sufficiently astute
to go in for the collection Of old keys
''In the past" said Mr.. Klauder re-
Gently, "the finest artists worked on
keys. Count Adolphe de Rothschild
has a key made by Benvenuto Cellini.
1t is chiseled from, a great block Of
steel and represents two splendid gro
tesque female figures 1t has besides a
number of superb mask and scroll or
naments. For this key Count Roth
schild paid $500.

CHOICE MISCELLANY
Big Guns Last Two Seconds.

Dig GuuB Last NO SECONDS
In the future We shall STAY one am
other at incredible distances. An enor-
nous cannon has just been placed on
the coast of Havre which, with one
well directed shell, can sink at dis
lance Of twenty kilometers the most
formidable armored cruiser. The Ger
mans, on their part, have installed in
the port Of Willemshoefen a Krupp
cannon which cost the trifling sum OF
$4,000, every shot OF which costs
$1,650-$627 for the projectile, $1S5
for the charge which expels the shell
and 1898 for the checking apparatus.
This gun cannot fire more than ninety
five shots before it is completely use
less. Because of the repeated action
of the explosives, erosions are made In
the bore which destroy the quality OF
the steel, and the piece can no longer
be used without danger Of bursting. II
we consider that after the defagratiOn
Of the charge the projectile remains in
the gun only about the f1ftieth part Of
a second, we can see that a cannon
rendered useless after ninety-five shots
has not yielded more than two seconds

gives the makers Of the gun wage Of
$2,37O,000 a minute, $82,200OO0 an

VESSELS OF CONCRETE.
Boats Made of This Material Are
Cheap and Fireproof.


It is possible to build vessels of re-
enforced concrete of any desired form
and dimensions, says the Chicago
News. The frames and longitudinal
beams are made Of concrete re-en-
forced with round bars of iron, and
the skin consists of single or double
layer of concrete stiffened with wire
netting and made perfectly smooth
and water tight by an external coat
Of pure cement. The boats cost al.
most nothing for maintenance, are
lreproof and can be constructed al
most anywhere. They cost about half
as much as iron vessels Of the same
capacity. Their independence Of reg
ular shipyards make them especially
suitable for colonies and isolated in
land waters.
Reinforced concrete armor on war
ships has recently been suggested. An
Italian engineer has been led by the
success Of concrete land fertilization,
as revealed in the Russian-Japanese
war, to construct armor plates of re-
enforced concrete covered with thin
plates of steel as protection against
the Immediate effects Of the impact
Of shells. The substitution Of re-en,
forced concrete for steel armor on
first class battleship would effect a
considerable saving. The practicable
ty of the substitution will be decided
by the result Of experiments soon to
be made on the effect of shots on the
REINFORCED concrete plate.

just about 100000. The exact fig
ures for 1907 are not as yet available,
but the estimates just published are
based on the average growth of the

fairly accurate. In each of the five
year periods for which figures are
shown over the past twenty-five years
the population has increased, roughly
speaking, by 100000. Today the esti-
