In the school year of 1867, in the
town of Tops1eld, Mass, there was
at least one committeeman whose COM
mand Of language was unusual. This
is shown by the annual report of the
school committee for that season, part
Of which Is copied here:

Raw N usk.

nav MUSks
Musk In the raw looks good deal
like axle grease and smells worse. The
popular notion that the musk Of com.
merce is obtained from the muskrat
is a mistake. There Is obtained
somewhat similar perfume from the
muskrat, but most of the supply
comes from the musk deer, crea-
ture that is carefully reared in India
for the sake of the secretion. The
secretion is shipped in the crude state
and is used not only in the manufac-
ture Of the liquid perfume sold as
musk, but also in very small quanti-
ties to give strength and staying pow
er to many perfumes made from the
essential oils of flowers. Curiously
enough, the blossoms Of two native
plants have noticeably musky odor.
One is the small yellow blossom Of
creeping vine known as the musk
plant. Its odor is marked and is coun-
terfeited in the commercial perfume
called musk. The other is the blood
root. The pure white blossom Of that
early spring plant has distinct
though delicate musky odor. A bean
known as the musk bean is a cheap
substitute for animal musk.

Knife 0uSls In Mexico.

A duel between cattle herders on the
Mexican plains is about as savage and
deadly a manner Of fighting as one
could possibly imagine. Each opponent
extends his left arm, and third party
who has been selected to act as ref
cree binds their wrists together with a
thong Of rawhide. He then places a
knife in the right hand Of each, and
the fight is on. Needless to say, it does
not last long. Every stab may be cal.
cu'ated upon to do damage, and it often
happens that both duelists receive ia
tai wounds. Yet, in spite Of the severe
rules Of the game, there are men who
become experts and terrorlze a whole
neighnorhood. They pride themselves
on being able to strike so quickly and
20 surely that they can kill an oppo-
nent with the first blow and get away

Vernet IN q Storm at Sea.


Vernet, the celebrated painter Of sen
pieces, eager III the study of nature,
made several long voyages in his
younger days in order to observe the
various scenes which the changefu;
elements exhibit. In one Of these ex.
cursions undertaken merely for the
love Of the art most violent gale of
wind arose, when Vernet, without at
tending to the perils with which he
was surrounded, desired one Of the
sailors to lash him fast to some Of the
rigging: Soon after this request was
granted the storm increased, attended
with thunder and lightning and with
every circumstance that could add to
the horror Of the scene, and consterna.

emotion was lost in that of admiration,
which so wholly engrossed his atten-

An Ancient Die.

In the museum at Athens Is shown
what is probably the only genuine
antique die used for coinage that IS
now extant. It was found in Egypt In
1904 and consists of bronze, engraved
with the owl that was stamped on
Athenian tetradrachma pieces, which
contained about as much silver as
three quarter dollars. The die is Of
scientific interest on account of the
evidence it gives of the skill of the
ancients three or four hundred years
before. Christ in metallurgy. 1t con-

MANY FISH DYING.
Some Substance in River Water caus.
ina Death Of Fish.


Some substance. poisonous 70 fish,
which has gotten into the water Of the
Iowa river, IS killing fish in large num-
bers east OF the city. The report Of
the fish dying caused Deputy Warden
Charles E. Clark, Of State Center, to
investigate the situation Saturday af-
.srnoon. For distance Of mile to
one and one-half miles south of the
mouth OF Linn creek Mr.. Clark found
many dead fish. He, and boys who
were on the opposite side OF The river.
found about dozen crappies and sew
eral black bass, in addition to a large
number of buffalo, carp and quill
backs. Many others were seen dead on
the rifles and in the shallow water
near the Great Western bridge. None
were found dead above the mouth Of
Linn creek and + is the deputy's idea
that sewage of some kind being
emptied in the creek is killing the fish.
Mr.. Clark and Councilman Dorr Lamb
agree that the stencil caused by this
sewage in the creek is bad and IS very
noticeable within the city limits. To
remedy It II possible the city turned
two streams Of water from hose into
the creek near the Third avenue bridge
Sunday and allowed them to run all
forenoon for the purpose OF clearing the
water
