Twins Remarkable Resemblance.

Solomon himself, in all his wisdom
would have been puzzled in giving
Judgment in case in a London (Eng.)
suburban court the other day, involv-
ing the identity of twins. A youth
named Ebenezer Albert Fox was sum-
moned for entering land with a gun
for the purpose of taking pheasants.
Ebenezer Albert, however, asserted
that there had been mistake in iden-
tity, and that the real offender was
Albert Ebenezer, his twin brother.
The magistrate adjourned the case to
establish identity. Albert Ebenezer,
when brought before the court, said
his own father did not know himself
and his brother apart, and for years
tied piece of blue ribbon on one
and piece of red ribbon on the 9th
er, to know the difference. Albert
Ebenezer was fined $40, and Ebenezer
Albert left the court without a stain
on his character.

Shrinking Ewes Apple,

A curious tradition of the Talmud
relates that the apple" of which Eve
ate was really a kernel of wheat,
which in those days grew on won
derful tree whose trunk glowed like
gold, whose branches cleaned like sill
yer, whose twigs, respondent as pre-
cious coral, were covered with emerald
leaves, and bore globes of ivory the
size and shape of the egg of an os-
trich.
The story goes on to state that the
hapless pair having gathered more
than they could eat, were conducted
by the angel Gabriel beyond the
boundaries of Paradise, and given the
remaining fruits of their trespass with
instructions as to the proper methods
of cultivating and using it. The para
disaical fruit has, however, never
thriven since its Punishment from
Eden, and in the days of the later
patriarchs had shrunken to the size of
an egg, in Moses, time to the dimen-
sions of plum, and at the fall of the
Jewish sovereignty to the size of
small grape, thereby practically as
sorting that the race has been eating
the veritable fruit of the tree OF
knowledge of good and evil'' ever
since.-Charles Winslow Hall, in Ma
tional Magazine.

TRICKS PLAYED BY DYNAMITE
Dangerous Stuff to Handle at All
Times-Accidents Often Result
of Carelessness.

1T is generally supposed that when
charge of dynamite has exploded it
all over-that the entire charge
has been consumed" said "hard
rock" man who has worked in mines,
n river tunnels and other places
where high explosives are used. "This
supposition, however, is not correct"
le continued. Sometimes particles
Of dynamite will be blown out with
the broken rock. Then it becomes
menace to the workmen. 1t is a ia
Vorlte practice of men who are wait
ing or resting to sit on a pile of
muck as the broken rock is called,
and to jab into it with a pick or
candlestick or some other steel thing,
much the same as Yankee will whit
tie while he talks or thinks. If the
steel strikes one-of these bits of dyna-
mite that has not gone off, because
the 2lycerine in it has started to run
or because a fragment of it has been
crystalized, there will be an explosion.
The chances are that not one out of
the group of men sitting around will
escape injury.
Another frequent cause of acct
dents is that sometimes when the
dynamite explodes and tears out the
rock a small quantity of it will be
left in the bottom of the drill hole,
unaffected by the shock. If the drill
hole that remains happens to be
pointed in the right direction a lazy
drill runner is likely to take advant-
age of it and start his new hole in the
old one in order to make a record or
save time. The instant his drill COM
mences to thud on the unexploded
dynamite it goes off, The steel is
driven back through the barrel of the
machine, wrecking it and usually kill
ing the drill runner This explains
many mysterious deaths that have
been attributed to missed Shots
These accidents are more frequent in
New York, where more dynamite is
used in building operations than any
where else in the United States, be-
cause the men who handle the ex-
plosives there are not so well &C
quainted with its peculiarities as they
are in the mining camps"

Music Makes for Refinement.

Music is noble art; one which up
lifts the sentiments and elevates the
mind. There are phases Of it which
are calculated to amuse and enter
tain, as there are in the other arts.
But the main tendency is for the bet
ter. 1t touches deep emotions and re-
fines delicate shades of feeling. The
person who loves good muSic is usual
ly of a superior nature. Shakespeare
has put it somewhat strongly when he
says: "The man that hath no music
in himself, nor is not mov'd with con-
cord Of sweet sounds, is fit for trea-
sons, stratagems and spoils. :.
Let no such man be trusted" So the
cultivation of good taste is as much
Of a necessity on the part of the
teacher as is the cultivation of the fin
gers. That this is being realized by
the majority of our best musicians is
proved by the great advance made in
the pieces now taught over those
taught twenty five or thirty years ago.

HORSESHOE FOR LUCK
ONE OF The OLDEST OF ALL
KNOWN SUPERSTITIONS.
Had Its Origin in the Belief in
Witches-Steeds of the Greeks
and Romans Were Not Shod-
japanese Use Sandals.

1t Is not difficult to understand why
lovers of horses came TO adopt the
horseshoe as talisman against mis-
fortune. Horses were considered to
be especially liable to the machina-
lions OF witches. This fact stands out
IN all the records of the Lancashire
witches and other evil hays.
II precautions We're not taken these
mischievous witches would ride the
horses at dead of night over the hills,
and when the owner came to the sta
Dies In the morning he would find his
animals In lather and utterly exhaust
ed. A horseshoe fastened over the
stable door was believed to ward off
such evil.
There is no superstition more deep
ly ingrained in all classes of society
than that which is attached to the
horseshoe. AS an emblem of good
fortune it holds pride of place. Mel
son did not disdain to nail a horse
shoe to the mast of the Victory. In
the early part of the nineteenth CEN
fury the horseshoe was very highly
priced, and there were few mansions
where it was not displayed, while
humber folks We're at great pains to
fasten it over their doors.
Horses were not shod either by the
Greeks or Romans The ancients were
content with wrapping fiber cloth
round the feet of their horses in cold
weather, or when it was necessary to
pass through miry districts. Instead
of troubling about horseshoes they de-
voted their attention to hardening the
hoOfs of their mounts
Nero, who ever strove to outdis-
lance his contemporaries, caused his
horse to be shod with silver, while his
wife's We're respondent with gold, but
in no case were nails driven into the
hoofs. The practice of shoeing
horses by driving nails into the hoofs
was introduced into England by VIII
liam the Conqueror but such practice
did not make any Roadway for CEN
turtles.
The Indians, who had no superiors
as horsemen, never thought of shoe.
ing their mounts in any way, and yet
they were capable of performing re-
markable journeys over most difficult
country. The Sandown derby was
won by horse running in natural
state. The race was run twice owing
to the fact that three horses made a
dead heat on the first occasion. Prior
to the second attempt the owner of
Marden gave orders for the light
plates to be removed from the hoofs
of his nominee, with the result that
Marden gained comfortable victory
by three lengths.
Even at the present day in japan
the modern horseshoe finds a strong
competitor in the old-fashioned san
dals made of straw which are fastened
to the horses hoofs after the manner
of equine cricket shoes"

Electric Sparks in Cancer Treatment

Electric Sparks in Cancer Treatment.
Recently French specialist, DR.. De
Heating Hart, has been demonstrating
what is known as the fulguration
treatment of cancer, effectually pre-
vents the recurrence of this otherwise
fatal disease. The theory of the
treatment is that after malignant tu-
NOR has been removed the healthy
cells that surround it are made by
sparks of extremely high static cleo
tricity Incapable CT ever again being
able to harbor and promulgate can
cerous germs. At a recent demonstra-
ton Doctor Hart stood with the con-
ductor OF his machine in his hand, and
as each tumOr was removed he ap-
piled his treatment, sparks of great
fineness but extreme brilliancy shoot
ing from the instrument into the cav
ity made by the surgeons knife. He
explained that~it had been discovered
that these sparks We're able so to
change the healthy cells upon which
the cancer had grown as to render
their nature entirely different This
fact has been demonstrated by a mi
croscopic examination, but, curiously
enough, the sparks appear to have no
effect whatever upon the diseased
cells themselves. The greatest care
has therefore to be taken to insure
the complete extirpation of the can
Ger before the treatment is applied.
