The Ships Bell Clock.

In its most ordinary form the ships
bell clock is a stout, well made clock,
a good timekeeper, contained in a
round nickel plated case six or seven
inches in diameter which is mounted
on a board that can be hung on or
screwed to a wall or bulkhead. The
face Of the clock, the dial, is Of finish
ed steel, and its pointers are of blued
steel, SO that with it's nickeled case
the whole clock has metallic, solid,
serviceable look.
Attached to projection of the board
upon which the clock is placed, out
side the clock and Immediately below
it, is the clocks gong, with the ham,
mers-there are two of them-brought
down into it on arms extending
through an opening in the clocks case
and striking on the gong's inner side
1t is sturdy gong two or three inches
in diameter, and it sounds with g.
strong, clear, resolute note when the
hammer strikes it. On this clocks
face you can tell the time in the usual
way, but the hours are struck as they
are at sea on ships bell.-New York

Husbands to Burn.

The elderly spinster in the rear of
the drawing room car had no more
than settled in her seat when her at
tention was attracted to a woman a
little farther front " ho was garbed
In the deepest mourning. AS Miss
Spinster adjusted her nose grabber
glasses for a better inspection Of the
one in widows weeds she saw the
conductor lean over and converse with
her earnestly for several minutes.
When the conductor got back to her
seat taking the passengers tickets
Miss Spinster was consumed with Gu
riosity about the woman In mourning.
"Conductor," she asked in her sweet
est tones, "what's the trouble with the
lady up there in widows Weeds"
"Oh, that's Mrs. Gettemy' replied
the obliging conductor. "She's just
taking her third husband out to a
crematory."
"Oh, how dreadfulv' exclaimed Miss
Spinster. And then in a faraway voice
she added:
''And just think Of it! Here I am
past fifty and never had husband in
my life, while that woman up there

Cause of Car Sickness.

W. c. Wood attributes car sickness
to the nystagmus produced by looking
out of the car windows. Look out Of
car window and observe how
rapidly the telegraph poles fit by.
Each one is seen and involuntarily fol-
lowed by the eye until it is opposite,
when the eye shifts to the one follow
ing. This is true of near buildings
Objects farther away seem to move
slower, and those very far off seem to
be almost stationary until the whole
landscape appears to. be revolving
round a common center. The un-
conscious effort to take in everything
produces a rapid lateral oscillation of
the eyeballs, as Any one can observe
by watching the G, 2s of his fellow
passengers. The eye strain is enor-
nous and is the chief factor in pro-
ducing car Sickness This can be
proved by asking a patient who is
subject to car sickness to look steadily
at mirror which is moved rapidly
to and fro or tilted backward and
forward. He will Immediately CON-
plain Of nausea and vertigo. The
treatment consists of advising the
patient to avoid looking out of the car
windows and in giving him a grain of
cftrated caffeine shortly before he
takes the cars and repeating it every
hour as long as there is any tendency
to be sick. The author has been en-
abled by this procedure to relieve
many sufferers from car Sickness

Washington, April 20.-Another
chapter in the famous~case involving
the alleged boycott of the Buck Stove
and Range company of St. Louis by
the American Federation of Labor was

cision Of the supreme court of the Dis
trict of Columbia, which sentenced
Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison to Jail for contempt
of court, came up in the court of ap-
peals of the District of Columbia.
The case grew out Of the printing
Of the Buck Stove and Range COM
pany's name in the I'VE don't pat
ronize" list of the Federationist, the
official organ of the labor organiza-
tton, and the efforts, as claimed by
the manufacturing concern, to boy
colt that company's products among
the members of the federation by the
federation. -.s
The opening presentation of the
case for the appellants was made by
Judge Alton B. Parker of New York,

B. Burrell Of Duncan, Okla; Jesse
West and Joe Allen of Canadian, Tex.

ans and large cattle owners. The
men were held on a charge of COM
plicity in the murder Of former Unit
ed States Marshal A. L. Bobbitt near
Ada last February. Bobbitt was shot
from ambush on his way home.
The mob, it is said, was organized
In the Commercial club rooms and
marched to the jail. Only one man
stood guard at the prison and he was
quickly overpoWered and the four
prisoners seized, taken to a nearby
barn and hung from the rafters. The
bodies were cut down six hours later.
There was little excitement during the
lynching.
Two weeks ago the four men we're
placed under arrest at Fort Worth
for the murder and brought to Ada
for trial. Miller had his preliminary
hearing last Friday and was held
without bail. The authorities allege
that Allen and West, who were
wealthy cattlemen Of Canadian, Tex,
hired Miller to kill Bobbitt, Burrell
paying Miller the money. Allen and
West and Bobbitt were neighbors as
ranchmen in Seminole county and the
trouble is alleged to have been due to
an old disagreement.
Miller, one of the victims, leaves a
wife in Fort Worth. He had killed
six men in his time and was a COM
panion of the late Pat Garrett, the
famous man hunter and slayer of
"Billy the Kid" and was with Garrett
when the latter was killed at Las
Cruces. The mob was composed of
many of the prominent citizens of the
city and only few wore masks.

At one time July sold at $1.1SH.
This tempted profit taking and the
consequent decline brought out stop

dropped to $1.15%.
