A Plants Drink,

When we cut flowers we put them
in water to keep them fresh. Like
human beings, they can exist for long
periods on water alone, as the liquid
forms a considerable portion of their
bulk. The drinking capabilities Of
plants vary a great deal, and at re-
cent scientific exhibition held at Sur
bitOn, England, some ingenious de-
vices were shown TO register the diff
ferent actions of plant life. The ap-
paratus consists of a twin glass tube
with a coiled formation at the base.
The flower is placed through a cork
into the water in the upper end of
the branch tube, and the lower end,
which is inserted in vessel filed
with water, is lifted out and replaced,
thus allowing an air bubble to enter
the tube. AS the plant drinks the wa
ter the bubble is forced along the
coiled glass tube as fresh water enters
behind it, and the amount taken by
the flower is, of course, the quantity
behind the air globe.

a Fox TRAGEDY.

On one of the large estates in Hing
ham, England, a few weeks ago a fox
was found to be destroying poultry.
The time of the raids and their bold
ness were proof enough that the fox
must be female with young. Poison
ed meat was prepared for her, and at
once the raids ceased. A few days
later one of the wOrkmen of the estate
came upon the den of a fox, at the
mouth of which lay dead a whole litter
Of young ones. They had been poison
ed. The mother had not eaten the doc
tored food herself, but had carried ii
home to her family. They must have
died in the burrow, for it was evident
from the signs that she had dragged
them out into the fresh air to revive
them and deposited them gently on the
sand by the hole Then in her perplex-
ity she had brought various tidbits of
mouse and bird and rabbit and placed
at their noses to tempt them to wake
up out of their strange sleep and eat
as hungry children ought to eat. Who
knows how long she watched beside
the still forms and what her emotions
were? She must have left the neigh
borhood soon after, however, for no
one has seen her since about the es-
tate.-Atlantic Monthly.

FOR THE CHILDREN
About Queer Birds.

One of the most singular of birds
is the chanting hawk. The sexes pair
for life. During incubation the male
turns musician and sings by day and
night. Each strain occupies about a
minute, when he pauses for a time,
then begins again. He is so absorbed
while singing that he may be ap-
preached, though at other times ex-
ceedingly shy.
Levaillant having killed a male bird,
the female searched for him on all
sides, uttering piteous cries. In an
other case, having killed a female, the
husband mounted to the tops of the
trees and poured out mingled strain
of lamentation and defiance.
The crowned eagle Of Brazil is said
to be the only bird that ventures to
dine on skunks. 1t devours the arma-
dillos, breaking their shells by carry
ing them high in the air and letting
them fall upon the earth.
When flying, the buffoon eagle has
the appearance of a bird with the tail
cut off. Its name is given from its
habit Of tubing like buffOOn in the
air.
The condor has been known to soar
to an elevation almost six times great
er than that at which the clouds are
ordinarily suspended over our heads.

Value of the Wireless.

To wireless telegraphy more
than 500 passengers on the i'll
fated Volturno owe their lives.
The call IS. o. S." sent out from
that burning vessel was answer
ed by II transatlantic steam
ships which FASTENED to the
scene of the disaster, and did re-
markable rescue work under ad-
verse weather conditions. Had
the Volturno not been equipped
with wireless it is probable that
not one of these ships would have
reached her ir time to save one
Of the 657 souls aboard her.
Wireless telegraphy has before
been the agency through which
lives and property have been
saved, yet its usefulness is not
confined wholly to such emergen-
cies. In a large measure it is
the complement of the search
light, with which all ocean steam
ers are now equipped. The
searchlight lights the path of the
swiftly moving steamship and
warns nearby craft of its pres

ence. The wireless reaches out
beyond the rays of the search
light, keeping the vessel in touch
with scores of other ships in the
same ocean pathway, and with
land stations, so that vessel is
always in communication not on
ly with other vessels, but with
the shore. A recent experiment
with the wireless has shown that
it is capable of transmitting mes
sages from continent to conu-
nent.
The ultimate possibilities of the
wireless have not been reaceed.
The invention is still in its infan-
cy. New experiments are con-
stantly being made with remark
able results. The time will prob
ably come when the movements
of all ocean-going steamers will
be fully directed from land, just
as railroad trains are dispatched
from some central point. When
this time comes there will be
practically no danger from collis-

innate value of the wireless is

The Lone Fisherman.

This is a variation of the donkey
party. A square of muslin upon which
is drawn or pasted a fisherman with
rod and line in hand is fastened against
the wall at one side of the room.
A fish made of Grape paper, with a
pin stuck through its gills, is given to
each player, and one by one they are
blindfolded and told to attach the fish
to the hook on the fisherman's line.
The one who comes nearest to doing
this receives a prize.

AGAINST STATE
 RANGE CONTROL
Coconino Stockmen Strong ly in Favor of Continu- ing Forest Range Un-
 der Federal Control
IN FAVOR OF LEASES

PHOENIX, Jan. i4-Cocinino coun- ty stOckgrowers will be opposed to any proposition that will make .or state control of the nat,onal forests, according to F. H. Crabbe, a promin- ent member Of the Coconino county stockgrowers sOciatiOn. who is in the city to attend both the Arizona cattlemen's convention and the La- tional live stock convention. It s claimed that the forest ranges are now being well administered under the supervision of the central author ity of the forest service and that the Cowmen are unwilling to endanger ,heir industry by trying something they know nothing about and which
 gill jgopardize their interest
 At the same time the cattle men in the north will object to any proposi- tion that will decrease or increase the present boundaries of the national forests The same reasons obtain for
 the forests retaining this control as
 Co against state control of the pres ent national forest. lt is the opinion Of a number of these men that since
 Inc national government arbitrarily
 took a great deal of the ranges into
 the national forests under protest and now after a number of years they are being administered satistac- tu.ily to the cattlement 1t will be a
 mistaken policy to turn that land which is not actually forest land now ,n the boundaries of the forests again 1 into the open. without any control.

AMATEUR FAILS IN
 ATTEMPTED BURGLARY
Works Long and Hard Try ing to Get Into Safe of
 Tucson Store

TUCSON. Jan. l4-An axe. hay nock and a screw driver were the tools used by an amateur burglar on he iron safe Of the Tucson Hay and Grain company Saturday night or early sunday morning. Instead or succeeding in opening the box safe. however, ,he burglar put il in sucn condition that it took a skilled safe repairer all day sunday to open it.
 The burglar was discovered by S. !. Barkley. Of the Tucson Hay and Grain company Sunday morning. Tho burglar had entered the back door Of the place. He used an axe to smash the dial of the safe and failinE to open it in that manner he straight eRed out a hay hook aud tried to rive the bolts out of the hinges Of he safe door. Having failed 10 open the sate with a strengthened hay hook. he made a nook out of straight screw driver and tired to ipen it with that but again failed He next tried to chop out the hinges with the axe. He also used nuts rom an old letter press. which he re- moved. but in what way it is not siONu-
 Had the man turned the dial 8 traction and pulled the door would nave come open" said s. r. Barkley
 We do not use the safe to keep money in. only for our books and 3t
 he time the man was trying to open t there was only eighty-five cents in the safe. The safe is seldom ever ocked and when l want 10 open it always have to look ap the cOmbina- tion."
 The burglar went through the cash drawer but did not disturb anything in it. including a dollars worth of stamps. The burglar was evidently rank amateur as a safe cracker and judging from the manner in which he went about opening the safe he must have been "a snan with delirium tremens badly in need of a drink" says Mir. Barkley.
