Fanatic Kills Lieutenant Rodney.


Lieutenant Walter H. Rodney, OF
the Second United States cavalry,
stationed in the Augur barracks In
the department of Mindanao, Philip.
pine Islands, was murdered by Moro
Juramentado.
The native, crazed with religious
passion, ran amuck thirsting for the
blood of Christian.
The assassin belongs to the Mo-
hammedan sect of Juramentados, who
have taken an oath to shed the blood
of the hated Christian. They know no
fear, believing that the performance
of what they consider religious duty,
if resulting in their own death, will
be rewarded with eternal bliss.
The fanatic was armed with bolo,
and as he tore through the streets
those who saw him fled in terror. He
encountered Rodney, seemingly by
chance, and struck him down before
the officer could defend himself
Lieutenant Rodney was a native OF
California, and was thirty-two years
of age.

Roman Cooks and Clocks.

1t is pretty well established that
the citizens of the Eternal City went
on for more than six centuries with
out any accurate means of knowing
the time either by night or day. The
Consul P. Scipio Nasica, in 159 b. c.,
set up in Rome a public clepsydra, or
water clock, the first timekeeper in
the history of the city, waving the
ordinary sun dial. The prices paid,
even in the most luxurious days of
Rome, for exquisite cooks were not up
to those of to-day, the highest salary
being 100000 sesterces ($5,000), while
some noted chefs Of to-day receive

Use cf Eaphtha.

Naphtha is an infiammable liquid
which exudes from the soil in certain
parts of Persia. Subsequently the
use of the term spread to include
some volatile oils found in Europe
and even America. The product OF
the oil fields of Southern Russia is
usually called naphtha, although it diff
fers in no way from the ordinary
grades of petroleum. Naphtha prop
erly includes the lighter oils which
pass off first in the distillation of
petroleum, the gravities ranging from
80 to 62 degrees Heaume. Pennsyl-
vania crude oil contains from to 20
per cent. of naphtha. In the refining
of such naphtha several products are
obtained by fractional distillation.
Those which pass off first-namely
rhigolene and cymogene-are gases
at ordinary temperatures and are sell
dom saved. The next product is
known as gasoline, a material largely
used in machines and for Illuminating
purposes. After this comes stove
naphtha and gas naphtha, the latter
being the base of much of the illumi-
mating gas now made. Petroleum
naphtha is often treated with chemi-
Gals to deodorize T.. Naphtha may
also be made in the distillation OF
wood and coal tar.
