Paris.-It would be gliding thrice
refined gold to sing the praises OF
wine in France, but the experiments
conducted by M. Joubert, professor OF
agriculture at Fountainebleau, will
cause the poultry keepers of this coun-
try to chant anew the virtues of the
national beverage
M. Joubert, as becomes one hold
ing his office, is greatly concerned at
the falling off in the production OF
eggs in France, especially during the
winter months.
Whether it is that the hens have
grown lazy or the early hours they
keep in the cold prevents proper at
tention to business. the fact remains
that the number of eggs laid by
French hens has declined in recent
years, and there is, in consequence,
a growing importation OF foreign prod
uce.
NJ Joubert set himself to remedy
this condition Of affairs, and he seems
to have been successful. Last Octo-
Der he selected a dozen young hens
aad divided them into two indiscrim-
mate lots of six each. Both were fed
on exactly the same diet, but to the
feed of one half-dozen there was add.
ed daily ration of glass of wine
ger head.

MANY SUBJECTS.
ARE SHORT But INTERESTING
Brief Mention Of What is Transpiring
in Various Sections of Our Own
and Foreign Countries.
Washington

Determined to avoid giving any pre-
text for foreign intervention for
financial reasons, the Chinese govern
ment has ordered all receipts from
maritime customs, including the 1901
boxer indemnities, to be deposited
with the foreign banks to the credit
of Chinas foreign debtors.
Another move looking to the re-
lease of Charles E. Morse, the former
New York banker, from the Atlanta
Penitentiary was forecasted here by
conference between Attorney Genral
Wickersham and Morse's counsel, II.
S. Dougherty and T. B. Fielder. The
nature of the proposition was not dis
closed.
The danger zone in the use of steel
rails, as at present manufactured
has been reached, declared President
H. S. Bellknap, of the interstate COM
merce commission in a report to that
body. If heavy, high speed trains are
to be run in safety Mr. Bellknap de-
clared a more scientific investigation
into rail defects must be undertaken
with view to remedying the
trouble.
The italian foreign office, in a mail
report received by the Italian embas-
sy, makes counter charges OF Turkish
mutilation of Italian soldiers. 1t al
leges that in "Reminiscences made
made November 7, by the Italian
troops beyond the entertainments OF
Tripoli, the bodies of five Italian SOL
diers were found; that one CT these
bodies was naked; that all the uni
forms had been taken away from the
others and that three of the soldiers
had been beheaded after death.

TEST BIGGEST GUNS

ing shell each gun was fired singly
and the mountings, which are nearly
half as heavy again as those of the
12-inch ordnance, developed no de-
fects.
The supreme test, however, was the
firing Of all ten big guns on the beam
with full charges. The seamen and
marine gunners and every person on
deck or the upper works had their
ears covered in with wool padded
leather flaps. The guns were fired ST.
multaneously by pressing a trigger of
a new patent appliance connected with
the range finders, and operated from
fire-control station at the apex of
the solitary tripod mast and in cleo
trical connection with each gun.
The 13.5-inch gun fires shell Of
1880 pounds-an enormous increase
upon the $50 pounds of the 12-inch
gun-and the force of the discharge,
10000 foot tons, would be sufficient
to drive the shell at the maximum
elevation from Dover to Calais. The
shells, however, were allowed to drop
into the sea in shallow watere near
Selsy Bill. The force developed by
the combined explosion would be suffi
cient, it is calculated, to raise thirty
Orions a foot

stern, and yet the persons who were
least affected were the guns crew.
They scarcely heard the explosion,

the barbette, which happened like a
lightning fash. The huge wire-wound
steel tube, weighing rs tons, returned
to it's firing position with equal We
locity under the influence of great
springs, whose work was controlled
by pistons with ports working in oil
cylinders.
Below deck all loose crockery and
pieces of lighter furniture had been
slowed away and they ratified omi-
nously and dozens of plates, cups and
saucers, ETC., were smashed by the
force of the conclusion, which was
even sufficient to burst open tins of
syrup in the canteen. The hull itself
withstood the shock well, and showed
no signs of damage.

though the skylights were protected
by armored plates fastened down

most amazing damage Of all was that.

bottom of boat fell clean out.
The decks were practically undam-
aged. The area over which the flashes
passed was specially thickened with
armored steel to resist the tendency
to buckle under the plunging shock
of the discharge of hundreds Of
pounds of cordite, and the injury done
was merely superficial.
The force Of the conclusion was sc
tremendous that the windows of the
houses at Southsea, over Il miles dis
tant, were heavily shaken in their
frames.
