Witches In Enoland,

There have been witches" III
Norfolk, England, until quite re-
cent times. A man who died in
1883 was one of three brothers who
had ducked an old woman in a pond
because she had a black cat and
wore black silk dress on Sundays.
After visit to public house they
reused her out of bed one night and
"actually in the presence of half a
dozen other people who had gath
cred to see the sport threw her into
a hole, where she would certainly
have been drowned but that some
who were not so mad as the rest
cried out that she was sinking to
the bottom and must be saved" "
DR.. Jessopp also vouched for the
fact that a man who was living and
master of an elementary school in
1882 had believed himself in the
sixties overlooked by witch, whose
blood must be shed to cure him. So
he fell upon the woman and scratch
ed her arms till the blood poured
from them.

VELOCITY OF LIGHT.
One Of Jupiter'o Hoons Showed tho
WAY to CcmpIte Ii.

The speed at which light travels
through space Was discovered al
most by accident $50 Years ago. It
grew out Of All iIrrEaIaiity in the
movement Of one o. Jupitcr's
moons. At one period Of the year
this moon was siNtccH minutes and
thirty-six seconds Lehind time
that is, behind the time table it
had kept six months before. This
moon would disappear behind Ju-
pitcr and at times hc sixteen min
utcs and thirty-siX seconds late in
reappcaring.
In other words, the time table
Jupitcr's moon kept in spring was
different from the one it kept in
fall. 1t is important to note that the
variation occurred every six months
regularly. Every half year the
moon would be this quarter Of an
hour late in coming out from be-
hind its parent planet, Jupiter.
This perlodicity explained the lr-
regularity, for the distance be-
tween us and Jupiter varies every
six months, and the moon appeared
late in making its appearance be-
cause its light had a greater inter
ycning space to travel over IN com

CURIOUS NAVAL BATTLE.
Fought on Horseback by the First
President Of Venezuela.

Paez, who was the FIRST president
of the republic of Venezuela, was
perhaps the only man who ever
fought naval battle on horseback
1t is matter Of history that he, to
whom more than any other man
aside from Simon Bolivar VencLc,
Ia owes independence, actually
tackled and captured with his cayal-
ry a fleet of ships.
Bolivar was endeavoring to cross
the Apure river in the struggle for
independence, but was prevented
from doing 50 by some eight Span
ish gunboats, which moved up and
down the stream as he did. EoH-
var was in despair for awhile. To
Paez, who was second in command,
he appealed for counsel, saying that
he could never cross the river so
long as the Spanish gunboats were
there. 'If only we could capture
them," the revolutionary leader OBJ
served, "the rest would be easy"
Paez decided that he would have
those ships or die, and he accord
ingly called on his regiment Of COW
boys to follow him. Paez himself
had been a cowboy on the plains Of
the Orinoco and was the idol Of his
men. So when he spurred his
horse into the stream, calling on
his men to follow, of the 5000 cow
boys and their mounts, which arc
taught to swim as well as to gallon
there was not single man to h~l
out in this unique assault upon the
gunboats. 1t being night, the Span
ish fleet was taken quite unawaras
The cowboys wriggled from their
saddles to the decks of the vessels,
letting their mounts swim back to
Shore. Having thus cut off their
own retreat, it was a question of
win or die. They fought well, and
every gunboat was capturcd.-New

Caesars Newspaper.

Julius Caesar was, so far as we
know, the father of the newspaper.
He instituted a regular official ga
zette of general news, known as the
Acta Diurna, which was probably
the original newspaper. There was
an official editor. The gazette was
exhibited daily in public and was
copied by scribes, who sold it to
their customers, taking it to them,
possibly. as papers are delivered IN
many instances today. The Acta
Dlurna contained the DEGREES of
government, law notices, birth,
marriage and death notices and
many items relating to private af-
fairs. Its circulation was as wide as
the empire, being carried every
where by the legionsries.

ing property in Japan. There is no
shouting. The auctioneer announces
to the audience that he has such

The Excuse.
The excuse for this circular is that
the Germans are selling potash in this
country for s6 a ton less than the
American buyers can sell it after pay
ing the exorbitant export tax levied

many drove out the Americans who
are trying to continue their business
under contracts legally made with
German potash mines. is II likely
that on securing the positive monopo-
ly a syndicate which coUld get such
an unjust export tax passed would
be any kinder to the farmers than
they have been to the exporters?
They would have no limit placed on
their rapacity and could ask any price
they thought they could get.
It is said that Georgia pays out
s25.o00.000 year alone for potash
fertilizer. Hardly a boil of cotton in
the South except in Texas is raised
without the aid of this fertilizer. It
is apparent then, that the South IS
