AUTOMOBILE HAS A WING
Frnech Motor Car ls Driven In the
Same Manner as an
AeropIane.

A successful trial run was made re-
Gently from Paris to London. about
$40 miles, by a motor car driven by
revolving wing, the Paris Figaro
states.
The vehicle, which was designed by
M. Bertrand de Lesseps, and is called
the winged car" has the appearance
Of an ordinary motor car, save that
in front It is shaped like the PROV
of a ship. From the extremity Of
the prov extends shaft to which Is
attached the propeller-or revolving
wing-invented by M. Filippi.
The wing is small, strong and thick
and revolves within a protecting cage.
The engine is Of 40 horse power and
rotates the wing by shaft and chain
transmission.
There is no other mechanism, the
wheels of the car being free, except
for footbrakes. BY the side Of the
driver is a single lever which con-
trolls the clutch and the forward and
reverse movement Of the wing. The
wing can be reversed at q moments
notice, thereby forming an additional
brake. In the trial runs a speed Of
81 miles an hour was obtained with
2,100 revolutions of the wing a min
ute. One curious feature was that the
car made no dust.

SEEKS HER HUSBAND AT 100
kittltas squaw Dresses In FInery to
Woo Back Deserving Spouse
Met Him 80 Years Ago.

Spokane, Wash.-A tale Of the 10y
atty of an Indian sQuaw comes from
Ellenburg, where "Old Julia" Hansen,
as the whites know her, has donned
her finery at 100 and is endeavoring
to WOO back the husband who has
deserted her. She has attracted much
attention on the streets as day by day
she has sought the runaway. He has
not returned to her yet, but she be-
lieves that his old love will be re-
awakened in time.
Julia is the last of the chieftain-
esses of the Sockley tribe of Kitti-
tas Indians. She and her sisters
have been well known to the white
settlers since the region was first
invaded. The three of them once
owned more than 1000 horses and
much land, but the property was
largely dissipated by the husbands,
who were unable to Withstand white
temptations. These derelictions,
however, did not shake the loyalty
Of the sQuaws. Old Nancy, another Of
the sisters, for years led her blind
husband about with every evidence Of
devotion, so that they become known
as the Darby and Joan of Kittitas
Valley.
Julia met her husband more than
eighty years ago at one, of the great
councils of the Kittitas tribe.

TO ELEcTRIFY A scHooLRooM
New York Board OF Education VIII
Try Swedish Scheme to Get
Extraordinary Results.

New York.-The New York board
of education is expected to authorize
a trial this fall of a Swedish scheme
for electrifying a schoolroom and
thereby producing extraordinary re-
suits from the pupils. The expert.
ment, which has met with some sue
cess in Stockholm, will be tried on a
room in which a class of defective
pupils is being taught The cost for a
years trial win be less than $4,000.
The electrifcator consists of a se-
ries of wires in the walls Of the class
room. These wires will be charged
with high frequency currents. The
plan will be to have two classrooms,
as nearly alike as possible, one cleo
trifled and the other not, each to have
the same number of pupils. At the
end of a certain period comparisons
will be made between the pupils in
the electrified room and those in the
room not electrified.

Warrenton, Va.-"My little girl was

MAST TREES FOR THE CROWN
Mark Of the Broad Arrow Was
Placed on Pines In the Plymouth
Colony.

In the provincial charter of 1891,
under which the Plymouth colony and
the province of Maine were united
with Massachusetts,, it was provided
that all trees of the diameter of "a
inches and upward of IL inches from
the ground, growing upon land not
heretofore granted to any private per-
son, should be reserved to the crown
for the furnishing of masts for the
royal navy. Harper's Weekly OBJ
serves.
A surveyor general Of woods was ap-
pointed to see that this provision of
the charter was carried into effect.
Near the coast all white pines Of suit
able dimensions were marked with the
broad arrow''-three cuts through the
bark with an ak, like the track of a
crow. This was the kings mark.
Long after the revolution had oblit-
Grated the royal authority men who
had been taught in boyhood to re-
spect the kings mark hesitated to cut
such trees.
In telling a tree 1t was necessary
to bed it" to prevent its breaking.
This was done by cutting the small
growth and placing small trees across
the hollow, so that there should be
no strain upon one section more than
upon another when the monster pine
struck ground.
The mast was hauled out of the
woods on one strong sled. whether in
winter or summer, and so many oxen
were required that the hind pair were
often choked in crossing a hollow, be-
ing hung up In their yoke by the pull
ing of those ahead of them.
A mast hauling was great event,
and everybody within walking dis
tance came to see 1t.

STAG PARTY SEES SEA LION
Animal InstaIIs Itself as Watch.
dog at Mansion, According
to a BeIated Party.

Hillsboro, GAIA weird story to
the effect that a real live sea lion had
found its way from the ocean beach
to Uplands, the Hi1lsboro home of
Charles Templeton Crocker, has been
going the rounds in San Mateo coun-
ty.
Up till the other night the report
was received with considerable skep-
ticism, albeit many motorists are said
to have steered clear Of the Crocker
gateway, at which the new watch
dog was supposed to have installed
himself.
The monster Of the deep may have
departed for regions where there is
more congenial society than that Of
Hillsboro millionaires, but that he
was there in spirit and in truth, even
If more in spirit than in truth. is no
longer doubted.
What greater confirmation Of the
report is needed than that he was al
legged to have been seen by members
of jovial stag party returning in
the cold, gray dawn from a midnight
revel at polo club?
AS rule poloists do not run to
sea lions, but they are a pleasing
variation of vision of pink crocodiles,
blue lizards and polka dot boa con-
strictors.

BLUEJAY LIVES IN WOODS
Hawks, Owls and Other Birds Are
leased and Torrented by These
Noisy Birds.

The bluejay likes best to live in
thick woods, but It often comes into
open fields, orchards and near dwell
ings in search of food. When It dis
covers you it assumes a proud and
angry air Of conceit and defiance
The bluejay's upper parts are pur-
plish-blue. The lower parts are pur-
plish-gray The wings and tail are
bright blue with black bars. The tail
feathers are tipped with white. It has
crested head.
The bluejay builds its nest about
twenty feet above ground. It is made
Of twigs and fine roots. From four to
six eggs are laid. They are of green
ish drab color f1ecked with brown.
Doubtless the bluejay helped to
name itself, as its common utterance
is long drawn, Jay, jay, jay" This
cry, with the bright blue color, has
given it its name
While the Jay sings no song 1t is
able to initiate the calls Of other
birds, by which means 1t often at
tracts them. It likes to tease and
torment the owl and especially the lit
tie sparrow hawk. This is done by
initiating the cry Of wounded bird,
which draws the hawk near. Then
several jays will dart at the hawk
squealing and frolicking about in
great glee. Sometimes the play ends
in tragedy, for the hawk pounces
upon one Of them to the dismay Of
the others. Jays may be Gagged and
tanned like crows and some writer's
say they can be taught to utter words.

neighbors and friends all would have
been destroyed. The sparrow was
building nest under the caves Of the
home Of Mrs. Mary Webber, and it
picked up a long cotton string from a
pile of rubbish that had Just been
burned. With the burning string in
its beak, the sparrow flew to the roof
of Mrs Sophia Skaters house, then
to Otto McCright's house and then to
the roof Of Emanuel Wuest's home,
where 1t dropped the burning string.
A fire started in the shingles OF each
building. Each was extinguished by
neighbors before much damage was
done.

Children Are Helpless From an Un-
usual Disease-Doctors Call IL
Frederick's Ataxia.

Lynchburg, Va.-With the death
and burial a day or so ago Of G. G.
Mitchell, in Bedford county, is
brought to light a remarkable and
wholesale case of affliction. He is
survived by his wife and five chill
dren. All of these children, who
range in age from about IL to over
20 years, are afflicted in the most un-
usual and remarkable manner with q
disease known as Frederick's ataxia,
which renders them almost helpless,
without power to perform any service
for themselves, unable to speak in
telligently, yet they are not without
intelligence. With the intuition Of a
mothers devotion she has trained
their memories in a remarkable de-
gree, teaching them to repeat In jar
gon that she alone can understand,
hymns, selections from the Bible and
simple poems.
Mitchell and his wife were very
poor and some years since the small
farm they had bought, but upon
which they had not been able to make
tAe payments, had to be sold. The
case seemed so unutterably pitiable
that through the newspapers the
story was told and help asked. To
the appeal there was quick and gen.
erous response from many parts of
the United States and even from Cen
tral America. Funds sufficient were
thus secured to make full payment
for the farm. With debt removed
Mr.. and Mrs. Mitchell made a COM
Portable support from the farm for
themselves and their helpless brood
of children.
Cases Of this disease are very
rare and attract much interest among
medical men. One of the children
was sent when quite young to the
Johns Hopkins hospital, of Baltimore,
for examination and the case was
pronounced hopeless Of any ameliora-
ton. One of the girls, who seemed
less helpless than the others, was
sent to Richmond to DR.. Allison
