IA the parks and public places In the
colder parts of Germany a not uncom-
mon object in winter is the so called
ice fountain, rugged pyramid Of ice
many feet In height, which gitstens in
the winter sun and IS most effective.
1t is constructed as follows:
A FIR tree of suitable dimensions and
dense growth Is placed upright in the
ground or in circular pond where
there Is a water fountain, and a water
pipe with a fairly fine rose is fixed to
the stem SO that the rose is at the top.
The water is then allowed to run
slowly, generally at night when there
Is a frost, and in the morning it, Is
turned off again. The water freezes as
it trickles over the branches, and after
two or three nights severe frost the
tree is entirely enveIoped in ice. : A
well frozen ice fountain Will last some
days even when thaw has set in, and
It can always be touched up on the re-
turn OF the frost by turning on the wa
ter again.

Every body who has been to the den
lists knows only too well that the
teeth have nerves connected with them.
These nerves lead to certain knots of
nerve tissue called gangEia, from which
also proceed other nerves that pass to
the auditory chambers Of the ear. If
you grind your teeth ever SO slightly
you will find that you hear the Sound
very distinctly. The vibrations caused
by grinding are conveyed to the audi
tory chamber. where a series OF prya-
mid cells of varying lengths are so ar
ranged as 30 operate like keys of a
piano. These cells. each of which re-
spends to a particular note, are con-
nected by nerve threads, like piano
wires, with the main nerve OF hearing

the author noticed the extreme dirti-
ness Of Shens1 herdsman, whose hair
was matted with clay and his face and
arms incrusted with yellow sand:
when checked him for his sloven-
~ appearance, pofing my stick through
his entangled curls, he told me he was
a herdsman and went on to explain
that when he tended cattle If he turned
up clean and washed they would have
such fright at the sight of him that
they would run away, whereas In his
present messy condition they had no
fear Of him whatever. Again, when he
had to milk them, the more begrimed
he was SO much the more did they pro-
iduce. - y asked him If he would
like some elephant meat, but he replied
that If a herdsman ate meat the cattle
would mistrust him, whereas as it was
they treated him as one of themselves"

An Object Lesson.

Visitors TO Durham cathedral are
shown a round column in the transepe
with zfgzag grooves cut as ornamental
lions from top to bottom. Behind the
column short distance apart are two
long windows, and the light from
these falling on the column has the
curious effect Of throwing it out of
the perpendicular. Looked at from
one side, the column appears TO lean
to the left, but on the visitor shifting
hts position an opposite result is OBJ
tanned It is only by standing directly
in front OF the column, with the light
falling equally on both sides, that one
is able to see how correctly the build
erS really worked. 1t Is said that the
deception was contrfved so that those
who saw the column might be remind
ed that it is necessary to see things
from the proper point Of view before
expressing an opinion

TRADERS ON SHORT
SIDE OF MARKET

New York, Oct 1o-Open&ng-A shift
ing character of market recently, with
its succession of ups and down att
tributable to no specific Influences,
caused tradel% to feel their way eau
tiously at the opening, today. With
no well defined trend in either dtrec-
ton. traders quickly swung to the
short side. Weakness Of the copper
drop made It easier to depress the
whole list. The trading was most
active in Ama1gamated, which lost 1
IL. Smelling and Utah Copper also
were heavy and Reading and Steel,
which began the day with small gains
regained half a point.
Noon-There was VIRTUALLY no out
side demand for stocks and bear trad
ers forced down quotations easily. Fear
Of over extending their position, how
ever, acted as a check on their ao-
ttv7t1es and selling pressure grew less
pronounced after the first hour. Al
though Union Pacific developed no es-
pecial weakness, the announcement OF
the directors, yesterday, followed by
Judge Isovett's supplementary state
lment of, today, removed the prop
which had been effectually made by
bull traders. Bonds were steady.

Edmund kean as Richard.

1t is impossible to form higher con-
cept1on of Richard III. than that given
by Kean. Never was character repre-
scented by greater distinc$ness and pre-
c1sion and perfectly articulated in ev%
cry part. If Kean- did not succeed m
concentrating all the lines of the char
acteE he gave vigor and relief to the
part which we have never seen sur
passed. He was more refined than
Cooke, bobder and more original than
Kemb4e. The scene with Lady Anne
WAS an admirable specimen Of bold
and smiling duplictty. Willy adulat1on
was firmly marked by his eye, and he
appeared like the first temptere1n the
garden. Kean's attitude in leaning
against the pillar was one Of the-most
graceful and striking positions ever
witnessed. It would serve as model
for Titan, Raphael or Salvador Rosa

Road builders here appear unwilling

the Common Council passed a. resO-

pair the street and place it in the
condition 1t was before it was torn
up to lay the tracks. -
The company was given until June
20 to carry out this order and in the
event of failure to carry out the
order the Council directed the mayor
and director Of public works to have
the work done and the cost charged
to the trolley company. +,
A few days ago the mayor wrote a
letter to Superintendent John Saun-
ders of the Bridgeport. & Danhury
Railway Co. saying that If the COM
pany did not at once begin operation
of repairing the street, the city would
take up the work and tax the costs
to the company. Since then he has
been trying to get some contractor
to make the repairs but he has been
ucceSsfu1.
One contractor with whom he dis
cussed the proposition to do the work,
told the mayor he would not turn
spade on the repairs unless he was
first given a, certified check to cover
the cost The mayor this morning
asked City Attorney Pullman to look
into the matter and see If the work
can be done and charged up to the
