broken in man or beast. as was dem
onstrated yesterday. A horse for
merly driven by Superintendent Nc
Cormick of Ophir and Con Virginia
was taken for local stable and driv,
en- to the Union. There the animal
was hitched, but slipped the bride,
and struck ont of its own accord, over
turning the buggy and leaving it be
hind The animal, instead of going
back to the barn, as would be suppos-
ed, made staight for the Ophir works,
and was found later standing peaceful
ly at the old hitching post. perfectly
contented and oblivious OF the fact
that anything out of the ordinary had
transpired The horse simply took It
for granted that a mistake had been
made and endeavored TO rectify it

THE BANK
INVESTIGATION
IN REPORT
Protest filed in Assem-
bly, Over Action

The committee appointed to inves-
tigate the State Bank matter report
ed in the House tbs morning The
report reviews the matter and while
it takes up the question III some mat
ters it failed to get down to the final
case, that OF bringing the Receiver
and the Judge before the body. The
report with other matters was turned
over to the Judiciary Committee for
further action.
Mr.. Mighels, who was appointed on
the Committee, made protest on the
floor from the fact that the report was
made without his knowledge, and that
he had not been invited to assist in
its preparation He stated the fact
that he was named on the committee
and believed that the men under in
vestigation should have been called
before the committee and been given
the same treatment that was accorded
others by the COMMITTEE on state af-
fairs
Mr.. Mighels was in accord with any
move that was for the betterment of
the condition of the bank and the de-
positors, but the fact that the men in
charge, and especially Judge Langan,
had not been asked to appear. it APP
peared that the report was based on
such facts and fancies as were at hand
from other sources The fact that
both Mr. Wildes and Judge Langan
were absent from the city at present
prevented any real investigation.
It was further developed that Sena-
tor Horsey. who was appointed in the
Senate. resigned. leaving the work to
those who finally took it up. The

Odd Uses Of Whalebone.-The no.
ton Is popularity held that whalebone
Is derived from whales ribs, although
many persons believe that 1t comes
from the tail Of the big mammal.
Both notions are incorrect.
The function Of whalebone In the
life Of the whale Is Of the utmost Inn
portance, says Harper's Weekly. The
inner edges Of the whalebone plates
are frayed into innumerable hairlike
processes, and the whole forms sort
of sieve whereby the whale may slit
out its food from the seawater. IT
must be remembered that the food or
this gigantic creature consists chiefly
Of minute organisms, crustacea, mol
lusca, etc., floating near surface.
When the whale opens It's mouth
and moves along a great multitude OF
these minute forms Of life find their
way in. Then the whale closes Its
mouth, and the water Is strained out
through the whalebone sieve and the
food Is retained.
The common uses Of whalebone are
known to everybody. 1t Is, however,
put to two uses not generally known
even in England. where the fine inter-
nal fringes mentioned are employed
in making of barristers' wigs. BY rea-
son of their !ightness they retain the
curl better than does ordinary hair.
Fine whalebone threads are also
sometimes employed to stiffen the It's
sue in high-grade silks.
