BANGoR's STOUT HEART.

Bangor, Me, is showing stout heart
and fine determination in this hour of
trial. With miles of the city devastat-
ed by fire, most of its business district
burned out and many Of the public build
ings RACED, the people are already look
ing ahead to a better Bangor. and the
plans are being tentatively laid for re-
pairing the damage of Sunday night
Not only this; but the city announces
that, while approaching the generous
proffers of assistance from other Maine
cities and from a city as far away as
Boston, it will very likely be able to
care for its suffering people. Such buoy
ancy of spirit, as expressed by Mayor
Mullen in his statements to the public
press, cannot mean anything but bet
ter Bangor, and after that a bigger Ban
gor. As one of the great lumber mar
kets of the country, the city has an ex-
cellent foundation for growth, and the
setback just received will prove but
temporary check to the progress. In one
way, the loss will not be so heavily felt
as it might be, because the greater part
of the loss was sustained by the more
wealthy people who are better able to
reeoup their losses. Chelsea, Mass, aft

NEW JERSEY TEA.
Red Root, That Did Good Service In
Revolutionary Days.

You housekeepers Of today whose IA

dlffuse their fragrance over your tea
table would hardly suppose that tea,
or, rather, fairly good substitute for
It, was once made from the leaves Of
one Of our prettiest New Jersey wild
flowers. Yet so 1t was in the old tur.
bulent days Of the American Revolu-
ton. when they had so much trouble
over the imported article and used
various beverages as substitutes for
that to which they had become accus-
toned.
New Jersey tea, or red root, as IL is
also called. Is a low growing shrub
with many branches, seldom over
three feet high. and is found from
Canada to Florida. growing usually In
dry wooded sections. 1t Is very album
dant In New Jersey, for which It is
named. 1t blooms profusely in July
and is so snowy, with its many pam
icled white blossoms, as TO be quite
worth a place In the gardens as an
ornamental shrub. 1t has dark red
root, with leaves downy beneath and
very much veined. by which 1t is easily
distinguished from the pure tea. An
infusion of the leaves prepared In the
same manner as the genuine article
has somewhat the taste of ordinary
grades Of the tea Of the orient, but is
not supposed to possess any of its
stimulating properties.-Exchange.

NOISE OF THUNDER.
pus to Heating Of Gases Along the
Line Of Electric Discharge.

Due to Heating Of Gases Along the
Line Of Electric Discharge.
To Professor Trowbridge we owe an
experiment TO explain the noise Of
thunder 1t has usually been thought
that the noise is caused by the clos.
ing up Of the vacuum created by the
passage OF lightning, the air rushing
In from all sides with clap, but the
intensity of the noise is rather dis
proportionate. and 1t is now supposed
that the thunder is due to the intense
heating Of the gases, especially the
gas Of water vapor along the line Of
the electric discharge. and the conse-
uuent conversion Of suspended mois.
ture into steam at enormous pressure.
In this way the crackle with which
peal OF thunder sometimes begins
might be regarded as the sound Of
steam explosions on small scale,
caused by inductiye discharges before
the main fash. The rumble would DO
the overlapping steam explosions, and
the final clap. which soundest loudest,
would be the steam explosion nearest
to the auditor. In the case Of rum
bling thunder the lightning is passing
from cloud to cloud When the dash
passes from the earth to the clouds
the clap is loudest at the beginning.
Professor Trowbridge gave sub
stance to these suggestions by caus.
ing electric flashes to pass from point
TO point through terminals clothed in
soaked cotton wool, and he succeeded
In magnifying the crack of the cleo
trio spark TO terrifying extent.-Lon.

Burlington's Experience.

Barre has decided to send five of its
street authorities on tour through
Massachusetts for the purpose OF study
ing methods of road construction, and
to learn in particular whether macad-
am or block paving is best for roads

but we believe Burlington adopted the
wiser course when it brought practical

is far ahead of anything of similar ma
ture ever seen in Barre, 1t is the BIZ
cycle act, known as the Todesca- Keat-

ordinary stunts on an ordinary bicycle.
The ease with which the different diff
cult feats are done is feature in it
self, stepping from the stage to the rear
wheel of the bicycle, then over each 9th
ors' shoulders until the circling bicycle
is carrying them each on the others
shoulders, built up three high. While in
