HIDING PLACE FOR RATS.
Costa Rican Finds Fault With
Americana Made Armature.

A small rat revolving at the rate OF
LOO revolutions a minute has been found
extremely detrimental to the proper oper-
alton OF electrical machinery. Lizards
rotating at a similar speed have been
found equally detrimental. An armature
was recently returned from Costa Rica to
an electrical company in New Jersey.
with the request that the ventilating
holes be screened with gauze or in some
other fashion. The Costa Rican CORE
spondent wrote:
There are openings or holes in the
end of this armature and when 1t is not
running small animals find in it an at
tractive hiding place. When the power
is turned on they are thrown against the
casing and the centrifugal force makes a
distribution of their contents. and in this
way the armature is short-circuited and
burned out. The trouble has occurred
twice, and afterward, on one occasion. the
remains of a lizard were found, and on
the other a small rat"

PRIZE LOST THROUGH HORSES.
American Riding Team at Olympic
Games Badly Handicapped.

The American riding team which repre-
scented the United States Army in the re-
cent Olympic games at Stockholm might
easily have taken first instead of third
place if judged by their ability as horse
men. according to Col. Robert M. Thomp-
sons report to Maj. Gen. Wood. He says:
ut was too bad about the horses. 1t
would have cost substantially nothing ex-
ira to have brought over four more
horses, and with them our officers surely
would have been first.
Count Won Rosen. one Of the leading
officers of the games, said: Your officers
who were engaged in the horse-riding
competition have made great impression
upon us all. OF all the riding teams that
came to Stockholm they were the most
admired. and it is a real grief to us all
that owing to their lack of horses they
did not receive the first prize, to which
they were entitled, and which they real
ly so fairly earned"

Der of wealthy Natchez men, viewing

In the season cents will be paid for
each live weevil brought to Natchez in
