DALTON's EXPERIMENT..
Showing What a Genius Can Do With
Crude Apparatus.


The great English chemist Dalton
was schoolteacher. He worked with
out laboratory and with crude ap-
paratus, mostly made by himself from
described in his own words:
Took an ale glass of conical fig
ure, two and half inches In diameter
and three inches deep; filled 1t with
water that had been standing in the
room and consequently of the tenn
perature of the air nearly; put the
bulb of the thermometer to the bot

the temperature, | put the redhot tip
of the poker half an inch deep in the
water. holding it there steadily for
half Il minute, and as soon as it was
withdrawn | dipped the bulb of SEN
sitiye thermometer into the water,
when 1t rose in few seconds to $50
degrees"
He then determined the tempera-
ture of the water at the bottom after
five minutes, after twenty minutes
and after an hour and found that it
rose gradually from AZ to So degrees.

PITY THE POOR LIONS!
Hunters in Africa Actually Kick the
Brutes Out of Their Way.


II globe trotter and hunter, by
name Percy Stanhope, Is an English
man who may or may not have
sense of humor. Here is what he
said In New York recently about lion
hunting in Africa:
you hear them talk Of lion hunt
ing in Africa as though 1t were the
king OF sports. It's beastly shame
the way they treat the poor beasts.
Why, when ! was out in British East
movement on foot to punish lion hunt
ers for cruelty to animals. In fact,
they were seriously taking up the
question with the home government.
1.-THE lives of the poor lions are be-
ing made burden to them. l can re-
member when the lions would como
in out of the jungle and sit on the
platform OF the railway stations, and
some Of those cruel Englishmen actu-
ally booted the beasts out of the way.
Think of ii, the cruelty of it all!
"Therc being no foxes available the
sportsmen out in those parts have n
habit OF stirring up lion and pur-
suing the poor beast with whoops and
yells until 1t drops dead of exhaustion
and actual fright. The poor beasts
have been so terrorized that when
they see n white man they whimper
from fright This fear shortens the
life of the lions, and unless drastic
steps are taken to put stop to the
cruelty there won't be any Of the an
imals left in Africa. New York
World.

A Real Flood

The nearest approach to a real
cloudburst that this section has ex-
perienccd was the rain of Friday
night For three hours perfect tor
rent kept up, beginning at about 6:30,
lasting until about $3.50 p. m. The
rain came from nnrthwesterly di-
rection and seems to have been gen.
eral over all this section of the state.
Telephone and telegraph connections
were put out of commission and the
Northern Pacific track so badly
damaged that there has been no
train service since.
1t was just year ago that Linton
and vicinity experienced a like flood
and much damage was done by
flooding of easements. This year
there was more water, although il
did not come quite so fast, The rain
year ago lasting hut an hour. Two
hours after the rain began this year
many easements were flooded and
men were working like beavers get
ting perishable goods to higher
place and safety. The damage was
light for the reason that there was
ample time to protect property.
while the storm of two years ago
came at later hour when it was
impossible to save anything.
The Matt Lipp place on North
Broadway, the Record office, Bech-
ties store. and a number of other
business houses suffered and many
residences were completely sur
rounded by water. The railroad
grade just north of town gave way
during the heighth of the storm and
the old town was quickly submerged
into small lake. The track south
of the depot also gave way and then
the uptown district was relieved.
The railroad company suffered the
most damage this year, washouts all
along the acknowledgements line be-
ing reported as we'll as ON the main
line just east of Braddock.
A claim agent for the N. P. had
beenin Linton adjusting the claim
of Chas. Porter for his recent acci-
dent and was making his way back
to the main line the next day after
the storm. While attempting to
cross one Of the washouts north Of
Hazelton the ties gave way and he
sustained a fall of some twenty feet.
He was injured internally and suf-
fered several broken ribs. He was
taken to Mckenzie.
Traffic north is completely at q
standstill and all north mail has
been held. A. &. Cell came to Lin
ton Monday night with the HazeIton
mail and sent east mail from here.
Postmaster Harflt was down from
Temvik also and got the mail for
that town. the first since the storm.
The rain has continued intermit-
tently ever since the big5food and
auto travel has been most difficult.
1t is thought that today or tomor-
row win see the completion Of the
necessary repairs on the north line

Passing of Old Houses.

Riders and walkers through the
New England countryside and villages
learn to look for the venerable houses,
many of them centenarians twice
over. which not only distinguish this
region, but fit into Its landscapes with
suitability which newer buildings
somehow lack. AS this interest grows
the observer begins to notice that
they are all too rapidly disappearing
to give place to modern houses which
are certainly no improvement In work
manship and architectural design. and
not necessarily superior in comfort
and convenience If the old houses are
properly handled. In losing these an
cient buildings we nre losing not only
parcels of history. We are losing
quite as much a dignifled and fitting
style of domestic architecture which
is all the more effective by being BE-.
verely plain.-Bostn Transcript.
