Microbes In Humid Air.

According to the researches Of
Messrs. Trillat and Fouassier, pub
nshed by the Academic des Sciences,
microbes suspended in the air act As
centers Of condensation, when the air
Is humid. The authors give evidence
Of the existence of microbian drops
In the atmosphere and they have stud
led their properties. One very inter
esting result is that the sudden cool
ing Of the atmosphere has the ef-
feet Of transporting the microbes and
iocalizing them in determinate re-
gions. The cool surfaces attract them
from a distance almost simultaneous
", the smaller being transported far
Their. These new ideas throw light
upon the genesis of certain epidemics,
and may be useful in planning the dis
tribution Of inhabited places.

Origin of Moss Rose.

4 German story gives the origin of
the moss rose as follows: once upon e
time an angel, having a mission of love
to suffering humanity came down to
earth. Being tired, he sought a place
wherein to rest, but as it Jared with
his Master, so it Jared with him, there
was no room for him, and no one
would give him shelter. At last he lay
down under the shade of a rose, and
slept till the rising sun awoke him.
Before making his way heaYenward
be addressed the rose and said, as
it had given him shelter which man
denied, it should receive an enduring
token Of his power and love, and so,
leaf by leaf, twig by twig, the soft
green moss grew around the stem, and
there 1t is to this day, a cradle in
which the newborn rose may lie, a
proof, as the angel said Of divine
power and love.

"Do NobIe ThIngs-Not Dream Them"
To each man by an illusion Of in
terror optics his own real life appears
to be not what we see him doing but
what he feels himself feeling-his own
invisible sensations, emotions, aspira-
lions and satisfactions. He is to him
self the center Of a weblike universe,
and every least nerve message that
comes to him is, by a necessity Of his
souls unity, equally interesting and
exciting to him But this subjective
ness is not life; 1t is existence Life is
conduct; it is growth and betterment;
it is what follows the emotion and de-
sire; it is effort and achievement or
failure. Unless we do the things, we
cannot get beyond to seek further
things. AS far back as man began he
has thought and felt delicately. The
Mid-Victorians set out to do delicately
It is this doing the things that makes
US grow up.-Annie Winsor Allen, II

The triangular pyramid projecting

Effective Then Frevenrlvs.

Considerable excitement was caused
IN Hatton Garden, London, England,
one evening recently, by the loud ring
ing of burglar alarm and the exhibit
ton Of danger sign outside the
premises Of Messrs. Albert Ramsey
& Co., diamond merchants. The po-
lice drew a Gordon round the building
and then forced an entry. The result
was that three men were taken into
custody. The apparatus which effected
their arrest is described as the very
latest thing In practical burglar
alarms. It consists Of a steel cabinet,
which is fitted all round a safe or 9th

thor Of Leaves Of a Life" who could

to have prOfted by a long siege of
home training, and looked much bet
ter than when the team went away.
Collins, Cobb and Dauss, the latter
the Tiger pitcher, punched three hits
each.
Joe Tinker's Feds seem to be in
the dumps and unable to rally
against the eastern teams. They are
playing punk ball, too poor to win
against any other team in the league,
and unless there is a sudden rally Joe
and his followers may find them
selves dropped out of second place.
On the other hand, some real work
will land them in the lead again, as
Indianapolis is easily within striking
distance. The pitching, once the
weak spot, has not been at such a
low standard as the fielding in recent
battles. Five and six errors a game
is too big handicap with which to
win, and that is the way the Chifeds
have been fielding. There has also
been a notable falling off in batting.
Manager Tinker is trying to save
Rankin Johnson and Ad Brennan for
the big celebration on the North Side
Sunday, when the Tots return home
for one double-header.
The day will be in honor of Char
lie Williams, and big dOings are i'm
pending. 1t is expected that a large
crowd from the West Side will be
over to honor the former secretary
of the Cubs.
StaIIings used four pitchers and
finally beat Philadelphia through a
ninth-inning rally. Davis filled in for
a couple of innings and was unhit-
table. He looked as good as in his
nO-hit game. Johnny Evers is out of
the Brave lineup for two games
more because of his run-in with the
umpires. Evers is not so badly need
ed now, as the Braves have become
convinced they are the best in the
league, and are playing accordingly.

Thomas. says he has signed Fisher,
a shortstop, from Toronto of the In
ternational League: If he is any good
he is badly needed.
Manager Callahan exhibited three
recruits yesterday in the game
against Detroit, and at least one Of
them loked like the material for a
regular big league player. Bobby
Roth, right fielder, was the fellow
who impressed.
Roth had five chances to knock
the ball to safe territory, and con-
nected twice. One of his swats was
a double in the eighth which sent
hame a run. His single headed
One-run rally in the seventh.
In addition to this encouraging
batting, the little fellow performed
excellently in the field. He caught
three flies and winged out two Tiger
baserUnners who tried to take iber-
Ties on balls hit to his territory.
In the first inning he cut Bush
down at the plate on CObb's single
and came right back in the second
with another deadly throw that ex-
terminated an athlete at the scoring
station.
1t was enough for a youngster to
show on his first day before the home
folks. The experience Roth acquired
on the eastern trip undoubtedly help
ed some.
Baker, who played third, and Man.
da, a second baseman, did nothing
wonderful. Baker dubbed one sin
gle, and partook of a walk. Manda
secured a pass for his share of the
