GAS PIPE ITS OWN PLUMBER
Jacket Plugged the HoIe-ExpIa-
nation Is Simple.

Kansas City, Mo.-Chance some
times works overtime to produce very
insignificant results, and, as an exam
pie, here's the story of fire in the
joint basement below the Economy
Furniture company, S13 Main street,
and pawnshop owned by G., A..
Stevens at 813R Main street. A lead
jacketed pipe runs through the floor
of pawnshop to a steam radiator
above, A space near the pipe was
left when the plumbing was done. Di-
rectly below the hole is a gas pipe.
Now, at exactly two minutes Of II
o'clock in the morning, George A.
Stevens, Jr., who clerks In the pawn
shop, dropped a lighted cigarette
through this hole; at the same sec,
ond the gas discovered small leak
in the pipe and ventured out. The
cigarette set fire to the gas and In q
few moments little blue fame was
scorching the floor Of the pawnshop
By the time several fire companies
arrived the fire was extinguished ant
the gas pipe leaked no more.
Now, here's the explanations: The
fame had melted the lead packe
about the steam pipe, the lead hat
dripped down on the gas pipe and thu
leak was plugged.

Slaughter Houses Be Erected at Smith

London. TO encourage the importa.

the city of London corporation has a
big scheme on hand. 1t is proposed
to construct huge slaughter house
and cold storage plant in connection
with the Metropolitan meat market at
Smithtield.
Two hundred and fifty thousand dol.
lars will be spent on the scheme, and
when they are completed the build
ings will constitute one of the finest
establishments of their kind In the
world. They will be equipped with all
the latest appliances and are ex'
peeted to create a revolution In the
importation OF cattle into this coun'
try.
The scheme Is viewed with conster'
nation by the railroad companies here
who receive large proportion OF their
income from the carriage Of frozen
meat from Liverpool and other ports
to London. Under the new scheme
cattle will be shipped direct to Lon
don.
This scheme will have double ad
vantage The meat OF foreign cattle
killed In London win fetch as high

had been of English origin, while Il
will reduce enormously the necessity

MERMAID is FRlGHTFUL SIGHT
Dugong, With Great Mouth and Big
Lips, Arrives From South
Africa In Tank.

New York.-A mermaid" in tank
of embalming fluid arrived from South
Africa on the top deck Of the Ameri-
can liner Philadelphia.
This mermaid" is known scientific
ally as a dugong Of the species
serenia. 1t is supposed to be sur
vival of the legend of the sea that
gave rise to the belief that beautiful
creatures, half human and half fish,
appeared occasionally at the surface
of the water and tried to entice sailors
to follow them into the deep.
The specimen that arrived here was
hardly capable Of enticing anyone any
where. except In an opposite direction.
It has great mouth at the top of its
head and big lips Immediately below.
The chest, however, has suggestion
of that of human being, and It is
said that even today the dugong is &C
customed to ride upright In the waters
and hold its offspring In one Of its flip
pers, as woman would her child.
The mermaid" was caught In Della
goa bay, after a 14-hour struggle.
George Victor, who has fishing con.
cessions in Portuguese East Africa,
made the capture. He made every ef-
fort to get 1t to land alive, but It lived
only short time after 1t had been
taken. He exhibited 1t In South Africa
and brought 1t here for exhibition.

San Francisco-A mechanical ar

tives-which will correctly tabulate
the amount of resistent will power OF
any individual, and which will also
tell to an infinitesimal fraction the
amount of psychological attractive
ness exerted over person by another
has been invented by Charles Tru-
dow, a mechanic, who lives on Jones
avenue, Elmhurst. Trudow has applied
for letters patent upon his contrivance
and is seeking capital with which to
start love machine" factory.
The machine is termed "physty-
mograph" by Trudow. Its powers are
such that the human emotion termed
love is drawn into 1t when two per-
sons grip pair of handles, not unlike
those of an ordinary electric battery.
A dial which connects contrivance
of springs and wires registers the
amount of affection the two persons
who grip the handles have for each
other If there is no love between
them the dial hand remains notion
less. According to tests by Trudow
it's only fault is that it cannot tell
the full amount of love between some
extra affectionate couples. The ma
chine will not measure the affections
of two men-the dial hand remaining
motionless, as is the case when there
is no love between men and women.

Thirty Tons Of French Garden to
Be Transported.
Plants Undlsturbed While Earth Sur
rounding Them Is Removed From
Reading to Birmingham
Farm Demonstration.

London.-Some thirty tons Of French
garden, heavy with plants as we'll as
golden SOIL" are being removed from
Reading to Birmingham.
The garden, which stood In corner
of Messrs. sutton's trial ground at
Reading is the best educational model
yet seen. In its new site in Warley
park, close to the bandstand, 1t Will
cover a strip 100 feet in length, and
good three days work will be spent
In setting 1t up and, so to speak,
naturalizing 1t. The garden will be
opened by the lord mayor and lady
mayoress of Birmingham, who were
originally interested in the scheme by
Mr.. Chance-like his cousin, Sir Jo-
seph Chance, one of Birmingham's
notable benefactors.
The model Is described as "educa-
tional," designed to demonstrate the
continental system of intensive cul-
tivation," and as demonstration 1t
is not less chaming than 1t Is edu'
cational.
Everything is to be transferred just
as 1t Is, and not one plant OF the
many thousands will be disturbed.
The frames and cloches and open
patches of ground are to demonstrate
the growth and progress of French
gardening as well as the results; and
for this reason all the spectators will
follow one path In one direction, so
that they may pass with the explain
atory lecturer, as It were, from Febru-
ary to- November.
First. they will see bed In the ma
king, one part pit, one part heaped ma
nure, one part completed with soil and
frame Next comes row Of frames
in which three crops are growing
cheek by jowl--lettuces, carrots and
radishes. This Is succeeded by row
in which four crops are growing to
gether, the fourth being caulitlower
From the frames you pass to the
cloches under which the seed Is frs
sown, making a close green mat. Mex
are the cloches where these seedlings
are pricked out at even distances

frames. At this stage the first par
of the year is completed, The sue
ceeding beds and frames illustrat,
how the soil Is used yet again for tn
later part Of the year.
This is perhaps the most novel ant
interesting part Of the demonstration
The variety is most striking One o
the late beds is filed with cabbages
between which again is double GRO
of radish and endive. These cabbages

SNAKES CHANGE MANS VIEWS
Pennsylvania Farmer Puts His Hand
Into Nest Of Copperheads and
Stops His GrumbIlng.

York, Pa.-Farmer William Tracey
changed his notions about the weather
when he reached into nest Of six
copperhead snakes In removing an old
stone fence, in Dover township, and
promptly resigned from the Knockers
club.
Before the adventure Of his hand
Farmer Tracey's remarks at the East
mount village store were those of q
weather pessimist. He opined that 1t
was unseasonably cool and that crops
would suffer II hot wave did not
SOON come along.
However, II that particular hot
wave for which Tracey hankered had
been there when he put his hand into
the copperheads' nest, 1t is probable
they would have been active enough
to have made Tracey the hero of a
different sort Of reception. AS 1t was,
the six snakes were too sluggish from
the chill to move with their summer
alacrity.

ity it was no better than other docu-
ments of that kind, and that quite
often so-called codex was well
enough executed to even deceive those
familiar with the subject.
"a great deal of harm has been
done to Mexican investment oppor-
tunities by ancient mine and hidden
treasure swindles," said Mr.. Palafox.
mo sane man should take any stock
in either Mexico is well stocked with
Americans who do nothing else but
exploit their countrymen on the other
side of the Rio Grande. This also
applies to some of the rubber land and
colonization propositions. Americans
ready to invest money in the republic
should first put themselves In touch
with the Mexican government. Doing
this will save them money and disap
