WIFE AND
FINED Sl.87 FOR
CARRYING GUN

Vienna, Aug. ia Viennese
clerk named Haas, who shot his wife
dead in a railway carriage and then
endeavored to commit suicide, has
just been acquitted by jury at
Leoben. He was found guilty. how
ever, of carrying a revolver without
license. and had TO pay a fine
of S1.S7 before being released.
There was no denial of the facts
The man had deliberately shot his
wife, and then turned the weapon
upon himself. intlicting slight
wound, which. however, caused him
to be unconscious until the train
reached station and the police came
and arrested him. Herr Haas plead
ed, nevertheless, that his wife was in
the last stages OF consumption, and
that he had shot her because her
sufferings had made him frantic.
Witnesses. including her physician,
testified that this was so and also that
the pair had lived in perfect harmo-
ny. Two doctors called by the prose-
vcution deposed that the depression
caused by the illness of his wife was
sufficient to make Haas not RESPONSE
BILE for his act Thereupon the jury
returned the verdict of not guilty. but
insisted that he should be punished
for carrying revolver without a IL
cense, since he had himself admitted
that when he purchased the weapon
he had no idea to what use he was to
put II, and therefore at that time
must have been perfectly sane.

ONE EGG WORTH $500

An egg of the great aux, or care
fowl, bird now extinct, was sold at
auction in London for sum eQuival.
ent to $500. Not all great auk's eggs
are alike. In length they vary from
four and one-eighth inches to Ave
inches. The greater number found
have a white ground, but others are of
various shades or buff. In some cases
the markings are spots. shown in
blotches or lines.
1t is said that no living aux has been
seen since 1874. The birds were ex-
terminated by the ruthless trafic in
their eggs and skins, although their
numbers were greatly reduced by their
wholesale slaughter for food. Many
misconceptions have survived as to the
great aux which for years has been
regarded as q sort Of tabled bird, like
the roc or the dodo. In size the crea-
ture did not differ much from the tame
goose, and its title Of great" was Civ
en- to 1t distinguish 1t from the small
er, or razor billed aux. The most re-
markable characteristic Of the great
aux was its inability to fly. Its wings
were scarcely more than fms. which
aided the bird in swimming.

how nearly an actual spiders web

lectiAg two immense trees on the lawn
of his home, he spun between them
this spiders web, 40x60 feet, which is
SO strong that man may easily climb
to the center or top of it. The web
faces the main thoroughfare passing

the island was accorded in 1885 by
