NhY Dueis are Harmless

Why Dueis are Harmless.-A large
proportion of the duels in France end
without bloodshed. When the offense
is not very serious it is agreed before
hand that the words of command shall
be given so rapidly that the duelists
will not have time to take good aim.
Sometimes three shots are exchanged
without a hit and then the seconds
step In and-"honor is satisfied At
the word Fire" the pistol is raised in
stantly, and it must be discharged not
later than the word three" so the
speed with which these words are CIV
en- regulates the time in which it is
possible to take aim. Therefore the
speed with which they are spoken is
agreed upon beforehand, this depend
ing upon the seriousness of the duel.
The words are timed with n mctrOnome.
If the encounter be very serious this Is
set at the slowest speed, eighty beats
minute, which gives time for taking
accurate aim. A speed of 40 beats
minute allows no time for aiming and,
therefore, it is used when the seconds
consider the duel should he made as
littl dangerous as possible.-The Ma
tin.

Eating Stalks.-Asparagus is

Eating Stalks.-Asparagus is the
only cooked Wand we still eat with our
fingers. after the fashion of the HON.
eric heroes and the modern Turks. But
there is also "the Dutch way of eating
asparagus" which Dean Swift told
Stella that King William III had
taught him. What this Dutch way
was George Faulkener, the Dublin pub
Usher, discovered when he dined with
Swift and asparagus was served. The
guest asked for a second helping, but
Swift said, "Sir, first finish what Is be-
fore YOU" What" exclaimed Faulke-
ner, "eat my stalks?" AYE. sir" said
the terrible Dean in his most imperi-
Gus manner, "eat your stalks, or you
will have no more. King William al
ways ate his stalks" Asked afterward
whether he really did eat the stalks,
Faulkener replied, yes, certainly, and
If you had dined with Dean Swift you
would have been obliged to eat your
stalks, too!"-London Chronicle.

Profits of the Rand.

One hundred and thirty five million
dollars worth of gold in twelve
months. That Is the output Of that
particular 60-mile tract Of rocky coun-
try in South Africa known as the Rand
which was the scene Of terrible strike
warfare recently; and 1t is calculated
that the end of the century will not see
the gold mines exhausted. Since gold
was discovered in the Rand about thir-
ty years ago something like $1,7s5, ,000,-
900 worth have been extracted from
208, 100000 tons of rock torn from the
bowels of the earth. The working ex-
penses, Of course. are enormous, and
some idea Of the labor involved may be
gathered from the fact that from the
$1S5, 100000 worth of gold produced In
1912, nearly one-half was paid In
wages to 23,41S Europeans and 193,341
negroes.
These remarkable figures concerning
the vast industry of the Rand gold
fields are provided by Sir Lionel Phil
ips, one of the shrewdest and most
successful of the giants Of the gold
mining industry, and equally interest
ing is the story which he unfolded
during a lecture recently, of how gold
came to be deposited in the Rand, or
Witwatersrand, to give 1t its proper
geographical name.
Many years ago Witwatersrand was
really an inland sea inclosed by noun
tains, which were gradually torn down
by the action of the water, and rocks
deposited to a depth of over forty-six
miles. After this a volcanic upheaval
took place, dispensing the sea and
breaking up the country into frag-
ments.
"At the time this upheaval took
place." said Sir Lionel, the whole Of the
eartns surface was cracked, and
through these cracks came up plutonic
rocks-molten rocks-and after them
came up fumes-gold in a gaseous
state. These rocks brought up solutions
or vapors containing the gold. No
doubt these Vapors were chemically as
sociated when they came up, possibly
with chlorine. The chlorine would cling
to the gold; but as it has great af-
finity for iron, it leaves the gold and
clings to the iron, and that deposits
the gold free in the rock.
THE theory as to the way which the
~
greatest scientific weight, Is the theory
Of impregnation. The beds which have
been deposited these ages before were
permeated by the fumes or solutions,
and the chlorine having taken the iron
and freed the gold, left the gold in the
rocks as we find it today."-London
Times.

BIG WORLDS FAIR
Oklahoma Preparing for Giant Farm
Exposition.

Oklahoma Preparing for Giant Farm
Exposition.
The greatest exposition Of its kind
ever held in North America is being
built in the city of Tulsa, Okla. 1t
was begun early this year and will be
brought to completion and opened In
October, says !Tusla letter. To create
even a county fair in that time Is big
job, but to build an international ex-
hibition in less than a year would
stagger the average city Of million
inhabitants. Yet Tusla, with less than
10000 population, is doing 1t today and
in October will entertain visitors from
thirty nations and provide exhibit
space for farm crops from every coun-
try on the globe.
The occasion Is the eighth annual
meeting of the International Dry
Farming congress and exposition,
worldwide organization for better
farming with branches in nineteen ma
tions and members in sixty. When the
congress moved from Lethbridge, AL
berta, to Tulsa in January Of this year
there was not an acre Of ground nor a
foot of exhibit space ready for 1t. To-
day forty ceres are ready and eighty
more have been set aside for farm ma
chinery exhibits and demonstrations.
Five great buildings, with total floor
capacity Of nearly 100000 square feet,
are either planned or under way, and
1t is now an absolute certainty that
Americas greatest agricultural show.
built in the short space Of ten months.
will be opened on October 90.
One pavilion 80 by 100 feet, already
erected, will be given up entirely to an
exhibit which the United States depart
ment of agriculture is spending $4,000
to prepare. Fifty counties Of Oklaho-
ma will show their products in an ar
tistic structure, "a by 800 feet, built by
the state for the purpose. Corn exhi-i
bits from seventeen western states will
be housed In a third building, while a
fourth, of the same size, will hold
specimens from three provinces Of
Canada and a dozen foreign countries,
including the new republic of China,
which is spending $4,000 in sending
exhibits of Manchurian crops.
Tulsa, where this great exposition
will be held, is in the heart of a rapid
ly growing agricultural district. Oil,
gas and coal add to its prosperity, and
its bank clearings are estimated at a
million per week. During the big show
it is expected that 10000 official dele
gates will attend and that the number
of visitors for a ten days stay will be
over 100000. i

Always Took Observation-Disclosures
Vardaman, at luncheon at the New
Willard, said of certain trusts de-
fense:
"The defense is worse than the Of
fence. 1t takes me back to Bath
Beach.
"a young lady at Bath Beach had
occasion to complain about one Of the
bathhouse attendants, an old fellow
who, in the hurry of cleaning up,
would sometimes burst in upon her
in the bath house without knocking.
zone morning after this had hap
pened for the sixth or seventh time,
the young lady took the old fellow to
task.
"'See here, Peters, she said, there's
no lock on my bath-house, as you
know, and must insist on your
knocking before you enter. 1t hasn't
happened yet, but 1t might very well
happen, that you'd come in on me un-
dressed
Peters, with a chuckle, fastened
to reassure the young lady on this
point.
"No fear Of that, miss he said.
No fear of that There's a knot hole
In the door what 1 always look
through before I venture in.'"
