OF Interest to Musicians.
Music lovers of Hattiesburg will be
shocked to learn of the death of Mr..

there and elsewhere throughout the
United States. AS an artist he was g
brilliant performer at the piano, pos

to need repetition. His remarkable
ability as an instructor, and his powel

ment of music and the uplift of must
cal standards has penetrated ever.

The Old Constitution.

The Constitution originally car
ried forty-four guns. A particular
ly interesting history is connected
with this ship. During the war
with the Barbary powers in 1903
she was Commodore Preble's flag
ship in tie Mediterranean and
played conspicuous part during
the whole war. Lieutenant Wads-
worth, who was blown up before
Tripoh in the i'll fated Intrepid,
was one of the officers of the Con-
stitution. In the course of the war
with England in 1872 the English
papers laughed at the Constitution
and spoke of her as "a bundle OF
pine boards sailing under a bit of
striped bunting" But when under
Captain Hull she captured the
English frigate Guerriere, vessel
of nearly equal force, the people
who had before rldiculed her called
her ."one of the stanchest vessels
afoat." 4 few months after this
victory the Constitution, then COM
manded by Captain Bainbridge,
compelled one of the finest frigates
in the British navy, the Java 10
strike its colors.

Street Lighting.

The streets of New York were
first lighted in 1697, the lighting
being done by a lantern suspended
from a pole stretched out from the
window of every seventh house.
The lighting of streets with gas
was first tried in 1916 in Baltimore.
At Philadelphia a theater was thus
lighted on Nov 25, 1916, the first
place of amusement in America IL
Illuminated in that manner.
Gas was first used for lighting
houses in Boston in 1922. 1t had
been used thirty years before at
Cornwall, England.-Scrap Book.

Glass Polishing.

Glass grinding is effected by the
use of emery powder of various de-
grees of fneness. But it has been
shown that this grinding cannot be
carried beyond a certain point,
however fine powder may be used.
In fact, continuation of it undoes
the work and breaks the surface up
again. The most finely ground
plate, if largely magnifed, is shown
to be covered with tiny bits which
no grinding viii remove. The work
is therefore continued with rouge
carried on a pad of rosin, which
gradually smooths down the eleya-
tions between the pits. Hydro
fuor.c acid gas corrodes glass very
rapidly, but weak solution of Il
melts away the roughened surface
and leaves a fine polish underneath.
This method is used where very
fine adjustments of the surface are

and Executions.
Sir Matthew Hale, it is true, had
hanged two poor women at Cam
bridge in 1864, but a few years later
Lord Chief JuSticesHolt set him
self strongly against such charges
and in every case tried before him
directed the jury to bring in YER
dict Of acquittal. In. celebrated
trial at Guildford in 1901 not only
was the supposed witch found not
guilty, but hrE..false accuser, one
John Hathaway, was condemned to
a years Imprisonment and to stand
in the pillory .'shree times. Yet,
horrible to relate, woman named
Hicks and her daughter, child of
nine, were hanged together at
Huntingdon on July %, 1716, for
raising a storm of wind in league
with the devil.
The last judicial sentence for
witchcraft in England was in 1886,
one Jane Wenbam being actually
found guilty, according to the in
dictment, of "conversing familiar
ly with the devil in the form of g
cat" The judge, however, procured
a reprieve for poor old Jane, and
she was ultimately released, to end
her DAYS in peace.
Last, the witchcraft act was re
pealed for the United Kingdom in
the same year. 1t was quite time,
for only nine years earlier, in 1927,
woman was brought before Cap
tain David Ross, deputy sheriff OF
Sutherland, charged with causing
her daughter to be shod by the dev-

been proved to tie captains salts
