But now comes this British account of an expert
ment with batteship. 1t taken out in the
Solent and anchored over mine. The mine was
exploded by the use of these some other sort OF
waves, spectral or electrical which were projected
through the water, without any wire contact what
ever. In the explosion, it is said great cash was
torn in the vessels side and She hurriedy towed
to safety in imminent danger of sinking The story
goes that another ship eight miles away handled the
device that hurled the deadly current and exploded
the mine
If this be possible, and if the experiments of the
Schenectady youth have not been exaggerated, then
the magazine battleship is liable to be exploded
by enemy at any moment. Likewise, it may be
assumed, any other great deposit of high explosives
is just as liable to this unceremonious attention.
The use of such powerful agencies would be rem
dered impossible simply because they would be
vastly naenacing the than to the enemy
for whose destruction they were intended.
1t all seems wonderful beyond belief, but who
knowing of wireless and radium and the x-ray, will
be certain that the alleged secret experiment in the
Solent was not actually performed?.

PHILADELPHIA HOLDS THE BELT.

While weeping over the decline of its grain
trade, Philadelphia may. console itself with the re-
Election that in another field its pre-emnence shows
no abatng.
Burglars recently entered the home of Benjamin
Galman, who was found asleep, beftted Philadel-
rhias most honored traditions. The safe was in the
same room, securely locked.
Did his juxtaposition worry the intruders? Not
at all. Being informed regarding the habits of the
population they knew just what to do. Choroform
would have been superfuous. They got out >their
hammers and drills and went to work finally break
ing off the door while the owner of the safe sun-
bered on
II happened that there was nothing in the safe,
and so the burglars had to be content with riHing
the sleepers pockets again without disturbing him.
Having obtained $50, they retired, and, no doubt,
proceeded to do some sleeping themselves
If anybody dares say Philadelphia is losing its
reputation as the sleep center, he must be bold
indeed. In some years the city of Father Penn has
to give up the baseball championship, and there can
be no doubt that there has been slump in its grain
trade but its grip the sleep championship remains

FARMERS FRIEND, THE CROW.

That most picturesque of all the governmental
civil institutions, the Court of Birds which sits year
in and year out as part Of the Department of Agri-
culture in Washington, after conducting trial of the
of the Farmer the Crow, scored verdict for
the defendant The Court of Birds is different from
most legal tribunals, in that its defendants and their
testimony are not examined in court. The nvesti-
gators of the court have had become real nature
lovers and study the bird trial in its habitat after
the crow Tin this particular case) has become good
CROWN the sense of the tabled Indian-by being
dead one.
From the minute study of the contents of the
stomachs of large number of the birds the courts
experts have come to the conclusion that the crow
consumes enough grasshoppers, cut worms white
grubs, and other injurious insects to Offset his
vicious habit-from the viewpoint of economical
husbandryof destroying young birds and bird eggs.
The one positive danger these investigators found in
the crow was when he existed in large numbers.

MRS. FAIRBANKS.

The death of Mrs Charles Warren Fairbanks
will be mourned by great number of Washington
friends of good and noble woman who was for a
long period of the most charming and best loved
hostesses that ever graced official society here. Her
acquaintance and her roster of devoted friends ex-
tended to every part of the nation. Like her hus-
and the late Vice President, she possessed in pc
culiar measure the faculty of and savoir, which
made their home one of the most delightful that
either the intimate friend the casual caller might
enter. The deep regret which marked the departure
of the Fairbanks family from official and social
Washington is turned to mourning for the kindly lady
who is gone and profound sympathy for her bereaved
husband
