DO FLYING FISH FLY?
Science Thinks Not, but Many OBJ
servers Say They Do.

Science Thinks Not, but Many OBJ
servers Say They Do.
The much mooted question, do fly
ing fish fly?" is discussed by William
Allingham in the Nautical Magazine.
The orthodox scientific opinion is that
the wings of the flying fish merely
serve as parachute to sustain the fish
for a brief period In the air after he
has launched himself out of the water
by a powerful screwlike movement of
his tail. According to this view, the
fish has no power of directing his
fight after he has left the water.
However, Mr.. Allingham, who is a
nautical expert attached to the British
meteorological Office and is in constant
intercourse with seamen, reports many
observations that tend to controvert
this opinion. Certain observers claim
that the wing fins are in constant rapid
vibration and seem actually to serve
the purpose Of flight. One vessel mas
ter watched fish that had attained an
altitude of twenty feet above the water
and was flying toward the mizzen rig
ging of his ship when, apparently
noticing obstruction, it changed its
course about GO degrees, crossing the
vessels stern to regain the water.
Many other similar observations are
mentioned.
A series of ciuematograph pictures
might solve this question once and for
| all.-Scientific American.

STAGE HANDS.
From the Important Carpenter Down
to the lowly Grip"

From the Important Carpenter Down
to the Lowly Grip"
To the outsider the term stage hand
is applied 10 every one that works be-
hind the fOotlights except the players,
but there is quite an aristocratic line of
demarcation.
There are the stage carpenter and the
assistant stage carpenter. who build
scenery; there are the property man and
the assistant property man, who make
and shape all kinds of things out of
papier mache for properties and look
after the furniture and decorations of
the stage; there are the fly men, who
manipulate the ropes at the top Of the
theater. hosting and lowering scenery
and also raising and dropping the cur
tain. The natural habitat of these fly
men is on platforms up in the flies,
many feet above the stage, and when
not otherwise employed they have the
discOncerting habit of audibly gossip
ing and playing cards. Then there are
the electrician and his assistants. whose
business it is to operate the lights.
The humblest of the regular staff is
the grip" This man handles scenery
and does general utility work about the
stage. When exigency demands the
force is added to from the roustabouts
who usually infest the stage entrance,
eking out a miserable existence through
casual jobs and "sponging" upon the
members Of the regular staff.-Mary
Shaw in London Strand Magazine

The Turk In nstantinonle

Terrible scenes were witnessed in
COnstantinOple when Mohammed ii.
captured the city in 1853. When the
conquerors entered they slew 1000 and
made slaves of all who took refuge in
the sanctuary of St Sophia. Gibbon
records the fate of the 10000 prison
ers: Male captives were bound with
cords, the females with their wells and
girdles. The senators were linked with
their slaves, the prelates with the por-
ters of the church and young men Of
plebeian class with noble maids
whose faces had been invisible to the
sun and their nearest kindred. and in
this common state OF captivity the
ranks of society were confounded, the
ties of nature were cut asunder, and
the ineXorable soldier was careless of
the fathers groans. the tears of the
mother and the lamentations of the
children"

Accidental Death
Eleven Year Old Boy Kill
ed IN Most Unexpected
Manner.

| On Thursday of last week, al
about 10 o'clock in the morning
at the Beech River school house,
two miles North Of Lexington,
Loyes, the eleven year-old son OF
Mrs. Henrietta Watson, was kill.
ed by the lever or revolving
beam of a primitive flying jen-
ny" falling on his breast and
crushing him so severely that he
died in about thirty minutes.
Unknown to the teacher, Mr.. V.
N. BlankenJhip, Loyes Watson
and one or more little lads were
constructing the flying jenny
aud for the turning pole or beam
they were using a sycamore pole,
which is q wood of unusual
weight. Bv some means, the
pole fell across the breast of the
Watson boy, crushing the life
out of him as it were, for life
was extinct in some thirty min
utes. The sorrowing mother is
daughter of 7. G. Hardin and
the widow of Joe Watson, who
was reared by the late John
Pearson near Lexington, married
here and moved to Lake county.
Several years ago he came back
here on a Summer visit and died.
The remains of the unfortu.
nate boy were inferred at Beech
River on Friday, at 3 80 o'clock,
Rev!C. r. Brewer officiating.

Nashville.
Adds to Her Fame as a
Place of Unlawful Sa-

of a Counterfeit Money
and Dynamite Factory.

On last Saturday Nashville
our proud capitol city, where the
unlawful sellers of whisky are
not only petted and protected in
their nefarious trade, but the
City Council recently attempted
to put over a steal of 5000, ,0OO
for the benefit of the saloonists,
put another feather in its cap by
the discovery of Of a dynamite
and counterfeit money factory
behind the doors of an innocent
looking mirror factory. Detec.
tive St3ut, of the well-known
Stout Detective Agency, got
wind of the illicit business, 10.
Gated it on Deaderick street,
and on last Saturday night nab
bed negro named Powell, who
had on his person monlds for
making nickels and specimens
of the coins made.
The persons located as con-
cerned are j. II. Williamson,
owner of the Nashville Mirror
Company, B. j. Lyons, his as
sistant in the manufacture of
nitro.glycerine, and the negro,
Jim Powell, an employe and ac-
complice of Williamson. When
the negro was arrested in a sa-
loon and confronted with the ev-
idence, he broke down and con
fessed and the arrest of Lyon and
Williamson soon followed. In
default of bond, the men went
to Jail. The nickles made in a
plaster of paris MOULD were
somewhat crude and were princi-
palIy used in slot machines and

All efforts to find little Ra,

Rogers, who was first missed on
Sunday morning Jan. 26, from
their home eight miles North of
Lexington, have proven futile,
Notwithstanding the premises
and adjacent section have been
thoroughly searched by many
eager people. The story of the
loss of the little one, stripped of
all useless yeribage, is that she
was last seen on the night Of
Saturday Jan. 25s by the mother
who left her with the father
which Henry Rogers denies. The
mother, heartbroken, of course,
was brought to Lexington to the
protecting roof of her father,
Mr.. j. Il. Scott. Henry Rogers
was carried to Jackson for safe
keeping aud is still there, AT

Indians Dodge Taxes.

Indians from every one of the
Pueblo tribes in New Mexico
left last Saturday for ashing-
ton to urge the secretary Of the
interior to accept deeds to ap-
proximately 100000 acres own
ed by them in New Mexico.
The object Of the Indians in
deciding their land to the gov
ernment as trustee for a period
of twenty-five years is to avoid
paying taxes.
