Hlndu's Agonlzlne Penance.

An extraordinary scene was wit
messed in Calcutta recently when .
small trolly, studded with rows of iron
spikes, on which a Hindu was lying
at full length. was being pulled
through the streets. A large crowd
was following. Inquiries ELECTED the
information that the man was doing
penance, and was on his way to the
temple of the Goddess Kali at Kalig-
hat. The Hindu had been several
days on the journey, and was in a
terrible condition. The spikes, which
numbered about $50 were quite sharp,
and the man wore only a loin-cloth.
He must have been suffering acute
pain from the fact that his body was
bruised and lacerated all over as re-
suit of lying on the sharp nails. Meth
er the police nor any passer-by made
any attempt to stop the self-imposed
torture.

arch and a parliament, but no taxes

M. P.s. At the time Of the Austro-
Prussian war the principality sided
with Austria and modified an army
of 100 of all ranks to share in the
fighting. But Liechtenstein's army
never smelt fire and Liechtenstein
itself was quite overlooked in the
peace negotiations at the end Of the
war. Fifteen years later Bismarck
discovered that his country was still
technically at war with this miniature
state, and in strict accordance with
the etiquette of such things pourpar
lers took place and a formal treaty OF
peace was signed between the two
countries.

BECAME A DISGRACE TO KIN
Scotch CoIIles Reverted to Wild State
When Imported Into Patagonia
and Argentina.

Some years ago the shepherds of
Patagonia and Argentina imported a
large number of Scotch collies into
those countries to help herd the sheep.
But imagination seemed to spoil the
companionable, affectionate and intel
ligent dog from the Highlands. In
two or three years his entire nature
changed and he became Independent,
Rhappish, sly and disobedient. Bad
treatment may have had something
to do with it, but by twos and threes
the collies rapidly deserted the focks
and took to the woods, where they
soon became wild dogs.
They have increased 80 fast and
become so fierce in both countries
that not only do they carry on small
animals and fowls, but have grown
so bold that they do not hesitate to
attack travellers even in broad day
light. They travel in packs. and when
hunted scatter to hiding places In
the rocks. The Patagonian and Ar.
gentine governments have offered
bounties for every wild dogs brush
and while the war of determination
may deplete both national treasures
the only effect 1t has had on the col
lies has been to make them keep to
cover during the day. Every shep'
herd goes armed and keeps constant
lookout, but shooting has not de-
creased their numbers, and poison has
been tried without success, as they
are too shrewd to eat anything sci
for them.

RUSSIA'S REAL YELLOW PERIL
Drifting sands Make Desert OF 1000
Acres Of Fertile Farm Lanos
Every Year.

"The great enemy comes from the
east. Our yellow peril does not ap-
near In human shape. 1t comes IN
much more dangerous and insinuating
form than Mongol invasion. Slowly
but surely It is advancing upon us and
its vanguard has already reached the
gates of Kieff."
Thus spoke some years ago, Vladi-
mir Solovitch, the well-known Russian
aentist. who foresaw the danger to
Russian agriculture Of the drifting
masses Of sand which are being stead
ily blown across some Of the most
fertile parts OF Southern Russia.
The urgent nature Of the danger Is
once more emphasized by General
Mistchenko, the commandments
of the Don Cossacks, who has MADE
a report to the st. Petersburg govern
ment In which he points out that
every year 1000 square miles OF fertlle
land in the Don Province and 1900
SQUARE miles in the government OF
Astrakhan are being swallowed up by
the invader and rendered UNIT for
cultivation.
During the past year, the drifting
masses have done the greatest damage
within living memory. One large agri'
cultural colony in the Don region has
had to emigrate in a westward direc'
ton for the fourth time in fifty years

DEVELOPMENT OF THE PIANO
Centuries of Invention Have Been
Needed to Bring II to Present
state Of Perfection.

Have you ever thought, when play
ing some melodious sonata upon your
piano, that the instrument, as u is
today, is the perfection OF centuries
of invention?
In the beginning 1t was a harp
shaped piece of wood, having two or
three strings. From time to time
more strings were added until the
cithara was invented. This was an
instrument in the shape of capital
P, with ten strings stretched across
the open space. Many centuries after
ward musicians conceived the idea
of stretching strings across an open
box. About the year 1900 this was
done, the dulcimer made its appear
ance, and the strings were struck
with hammers.
For another hundred years or 80
these hammers were held in the
hands, and then some genius invented
keyboard, which, being struck by
the fingers, caused the hammers to
strike the strings. This was called a
ciavicytherium, or keyed cithara, and
from time to time 1t was modified and
improved.
During Queen Elizabeth's time 1t
was called a virginia., and then a
spinet because the hammers were
covered with the spines of quilts,
which struck and caught the strings
and produced the sound.
During the period between 1900 and
1900 it was much improved and en-
larged, and was given the name OF
harpsichord. 1t was In ITO that
Bartholomeo Christofoll, an Italian
invented a keyboard similar to the
one we have now, which causes the
hammers to strike the wires from
above, and thus developed the piano
During the last century the inyen
tive genius of musicians the world
over has revised and improved 1t until
It has reached the present-day per
| lection.

The second day of the fair dawned

in its gala attire resembled a May

tractive than the first day because
exhibits of all kinds continued to

the fair as a whole is a revelation,
but the agricultural department is a
feast for ones eyes. Prof. Rolls, of
the University experiment station, as
usual, is one of the judges, and his
face was wreathed in smiles. He said
to a reporter of this paper that the
corn exhibit is the best Marion has
ever had. That the collection was
simply wonderful. He says that the
corn yield of the state this year foots
up the very pleasing figures of TO-
$4,000 bushels That the present
market price is so cents, but the

that our corn yield alone, compared
with previous years, amounts to the
marvellous sum of ten and quarter
million dollars.
Besides lie regular corn-that

of corn on exhibition, to-wit: Broom
