What an Earthquake is.

sAn earthquake" writes Frank a.
Perret, formerly honorary assistant at
the Royal Vesuyian observatory, In
Century, 'is an undulating vibration
of the ground resulting from some
sudden movement Of the underlying
strata. This may be produced by
volcanic explosion, the breaking or a
stratum of rock under strain or the
sudden intrusion of lava between the
strata or into a fracture, the types re-
spectively known as volcanic, tectonic
and fntervolcanic. My own impression
In experiencing these shocks was that
Of a rubbing together Of masses un-
der pressure, which throws the adjOin-
ing material into vibration. If you put
a little water into tbin, wide mouthed
crystal goblet, wet the finger tip and
rub it around the rim, a sound Will
be produced and the water will be set
in vibration like the ground waves OF
an earthquake"
When Harvard Was Young.
Harvard, the first college, founded In
1896 continued for more than fifty
years to be the only college. 1t was
established by vote Of the general
court Of Massachusetts Bay, which
agreed to give E4OO toward its endow-
ment. Two years later this endow-
ment was more than doubled by the
beouest of John Harvard, who left
+ half of his property and his entire IL
/ brary of 300 volumes to the college.
The conditions of admission were few.
| To matriculate it was necessary TO
| know $50 much Latin as was sufficient
TO understand Tully or any classical
author and to meter and speak true
/ Latin in prose and verse" The stu
dent was required ito be able to de-
cline the paradigms Of Greek nouns
and verbs" Each class was also re-
ouired to study theology in a form

Why Do Seals Swallow Stones7
No nature student seems yet to have
discovered for what reason seals swal-
low stones, though the fact is a well
established one. Certainly the stones
are not taken in for ballast, for the
empty seals keep down as easily as
the others. They are not swallowed
for the purpose Of grinding up food
for they are found In the stomachs Of
nursing pups. They are not taken ir
with the food because they are found
in the stomachs OF both young seals
and in those that 1--we In the open ses
and feed on squid. Yet it is evident
that these things are not swallowed
haphaxard, but are selected with con
siderable care from the articles strswI
along the shore, and that q preference
is exhibited for rounded objects. Thh
IL shown by the fact that, as e rule
only articles Of one kind are found u
any one seals stomach.

roe s lonunarum.

Edgar A. Poe. great as was his gen. ius. had but little humor lie had. however, a hard. intellectual wit which seintillated in the most unexpected ways. He was accustomed to de- nounce punning as the most banal and foolish of all kinds of pleasantly. and satirlzed on every occasion the poy. erty of faculty which indulged itself in this kind of pseudo-cleverness.
 On one occasion a brilliant company in which he was present. knowing his foible. was teasing Poe with a pro fusion of conundrums. and challenging him to make one. The poet grimaced. and instantly shot forth this:
 Why is Aesop's f9bie Of the fox that lost his tail disprcved by geol ogy?"
 Every enc was ronplused. and Poe had to give the answer:
 -E5ecause no animal remains have ever been found in trap. "-Youth's Companion.

 MuStain

Generally improved conditions in in railway conditions of the south west. certainly SO far as the Fl Paso and Southwestern railway is con cerned. are reported by V C. Mus tain. travelling freight and passenger agent of the road. who was in Bisbee yesterday. Mir Mustain reports that freight business is showing it's fall revival and bids fair 10 be good. The summer traffic to the coast was good and travel is fairly heavy at the pres ent time.
 Mir. Mustain left Fl Paso on Mon day, before the statehood celebration had begun. At that time. he said. all preparations were completed, and one of the greatest celebrations the greatest of it's kind that El Paso has ever known, was anticipated. The at- tendance from Arizona will not be large. but the occasion has drawn more heavily from New Mexico and old Mexico has also sent her share of visitors. From Bisbee and Douglas on Wednesday there VII be sold forty tickets to the celebration.
 Speaking of conditions at Benson Mir Mustain said that the present terminal of the Southwestern is eu- toying the livliest times in her his tory. owing to the railroad work in progress out Of there and toward Tucson. Many of those wno came there to work had money when lhey arrived. possibly an unusual condi- ton for railroad construction work CTS, and those funds have not been exhausted though the men are free in spending. Consequently tlsiness houses. restaurants and saloons are all enjoying good business and the owners satisfied

RAILWAY SURGEONS

Dr. Francs r. Shine left last night for El Paso to attend the meeting Of the railway surgeons Of the south west he being chief surgeon for the El Paso and Southwestern. The meet ing eonvenes today. and there will be two sessions. one this afternoon and another tomorrow morning
 Dr. Shine Is on the program this afternoon for paper on "Renort of Cases Of Fracture Treated by the Use ol lanes Bone Plates" His lecture or paper will be illustrated by doz- en or more photographs taken at the Copper Queen hospital. with the assistance of others of the Copper Queen medical stan. which Illustrates the nse Of this plate.
 While the subject may sound dry to the uninitiated. it is one replete with interest to physicians and sur ge0ns, inasmuch as this method or setting broken bones has only been in use fer several months The plate has been used in numerous and varying cases in the local hospital. and with the best results. In one case where the fracture was several years old. the plate was applied with gratifying results. Experience Of Bisbee physicians with the plate method of resetting bones has been a successful one. and the Illustrated paper to be read by Dr. Shine will likely be one of the features of the program of ioday's meeting.
