'':7 FREEZING TO DEATH.

,SepsatiOns That Come With Exposure ,~4v. fts,t;. to Extreme Cold.
 In the course of a series of expert ments with extreme cold carried on at Berlin. RaOul Ptctet, an investigator Inserted his bare arm beyond the el bow in chamber refrigerated to H temperature of 157 degrees below zero r. and kept 1t there for several min utes. He suffered no permanent dam age, but experienced, a number of pc culiar and painful sensations. The chief of these and the most trying was 3 feeling of pain in the bones of the hand and arm.
 # The pain increased steadily. 1t was located chiefly in the interior parts Ot 4 the aFm and was far less severe In the portions near or at the surface. The skin was purple when the member was 4,withdrawn. In about ten minutes @ violent reaction set in with. violent burning sensation of the skin wherever it had been exposed. >.-. 'fe-
 Investigations, carried on with dogs inllcated that the process of freezing to death is not necessarily an unpleas- ant one. Placed in a temperature of -125. to -15O. the animals displayed quickened breathing and heart beats. with a. decided rise above normal in the . bf66d Stempeefature..1 These signs pointed to Il sudden and violent auto mattc effort of the heart to preserve the bodily temperature: Inspite of en- ergetic heart action the temperature Of the blood fell gradually to n degrees. At this point the heart action ceased very suddenly. T >.",
 The sensations of bodily warmth and languor mentioned, in descriptions of death by violent cold can easily be un- 'defBtood in view of the above expert Tfdnents: :lNew York Sun.

FLUNG FROM A WINDOW.
Horrors of a Death Sentence In tn Middle Aoes In BohAnnia


 Middle Ages In Bohemia.
 How munJ people know what refen estration means? Yet 1t was once { popular method of executing criminals and was the mode of capital punish fflent uSed in Bohemia fin the middle ages and Mtcr. Defenestration means ''throwing from window" but that did not always include all the arrange ments made for the doomed mans exit from the world.
 z In Prague in 1419 the council cham Der of the hradschin, or town hall, was lsed us the place of execution. There in the presence of the assembled no bles. their invited guests and the dig enitaries of the city, the unhappy Wretches were cast from a window eighty feet to the courtyard below. C If his crime was an ordinary of fense the prisoner was merely dropped on the stones and allowed, to Ike there bruised and broken until death put ar end to his sufferings. succor being for <bidden.

 But if he was guilty of treason Ol any act of violence against a noble he fell on the sharp, spears of g squad oi soldiers Or dropped to the tender mer cies of a pack of fierce dogs specially trained for the purpose, or he might be flung to wild boars previously en ragged by being pricked with spears.
 The last time defenestration was practiced was just before the Thirty Years war. when the imperial com smissioners brought an unwelcome mes sage to Prague and were promptly sthrown from the window. This pre- seipitated the war and abolished tho acustOm.-New York Press.

 The call for the town meeting has been issued, and in addition to the usual business the voters will be asked to vote on an appropriation for state highway.

In another call the voters are required to approve or disapprove of a proposed constitutional amendment which raises the pay of legislators to $500 per session.

TIME field was very quiet and
peaceful in the beautiful morn
ing sun. Birds were singing.
There was a. rabbit out on the grass
from the big warren situated where
the old, tangled, double hedge Joined
the wood, and there were two black
ing for grubs.
Suddenly the rocks rose with start
led clamor, the rabbit ran in in a hur-
ry, and all the birds except a robin left
off singing. Four men, with guns and
bags and spades and two dogs, had en-
tered the field quietly. and made their
way up along the hedge to the warren
Arrived at the warren, they flung
down spades and bags and loaded
their guns. They were still very quiet.
The bags looked rather uncanny. be-
cause they rolled and danced about in
very odd fashion, like live things. al
though they made no sound.
Then one OF the men knet by a
rabbits hole. and, slipping his hand
into one OF the bags, drew forth 4
strange, long, fiat-headed. sharp
nosed, pink-eyed, short-legged, white
beast, with caorse fur the color OF
ivory He was an odd little animal,
because Of the extreme shortness Of his
legs compared to the great length of
body, terminated with a medium bushy
tail and because of the look OF coolly
savage ferocity stamped upon him. He
scratched like a fiend at the fingers Of
the man who had hold of him round
the back of the neck and snapped at
and narrowly missed, the mans other
hand, incautiously held near him.

for il is not every animal who is able,

out of their homes,
