Lightning Made Fountain.

Lightning struck a telegraph pole
in the upper part of New York city
few weeks ago and turned it into
fountain. Investigation showed that
the lightning had ruptured a water
main beneath the pavement and that
the path provided by the tubular pole
was the only means of escape for the
leaking water. Since, to shut off the
main would have deprived large dis
trict of it's water supply, the i'm
promptu fountain was allowed to run
during the night, and the main was

Pretty Good Sort of Man.

If a man has reasonable amount
of diligence, is willing to tote square
with his neighbors and help along his
faltering comrades on the way, and
has courage and philosophy enough to
endure a fair amount of trouble with
out belly-aching about it all the time,
he is pretty apt to make the schedule
through this vale of tears without de-
stroying the plan OF salvation. --Hous-

ROLL ROCKS AS WEAPONS.
Tyroleans Are Finding Them Effective in
Defense Against Italians.

Innsbruck. Tyrol, July 22.--While botl
Germans and Austrians are fighting with
AZ eentimeter cannon and with weapons
that are the last word in the art OF the
arms manufacturer, the Tyroleans, who
have been drawn into the war by the
entry of Italy, find that the weapons
used in the Napoleonian wars are still
effective, and are using them with what
is reported as great success.
The old weapons" are nothing less
than huge boulders which they are roll
ing down, avalanche -wise, onto the ltal-
ians as the latter attempt to storm the
heights along the Austro-Italian frontier.
They are proving quite as deadly as any
shells have done in this war.
The avalanche of rocks was first used
successfully in the battle of Belfiore on
June Ia. The Austrian forces consisted
of gendarmerie and Tyrolean sharpshoot-
ers, whose forefathers had fought hum
dred years ago in approximately the
same place.
The third company of the seyenty-frst
Italian infantry regiment began an at
tack on Belfiore, attempting to come up
along the ravine of the Gina Norre.
Long before they were at the top, how
ever, the downpour Of boulders began.
Many of the Italians were killed at
once, Others were so severely wounded
that they were captured. Those who
could, scrambled TO one side of the ravine
or the other, but only to become easy

PICTURESQUE FIGHTING
Is Taking Place in the Alps as Related by
Swiss Guides.

Geneva, July 22.-Swiss soldiers and
guides bring some picturesque details of
the fighting between Italy and Austria
in the Alps around Stelvio pass, 1900
feet high, and the neighboring heights
overlooking the Valteline valley.
Stelvio pass is an important back-door
entrance into Italy. threatening Milan.
1t was strongly fortified by the Austrians
and manned by a large body Of noun
tain artillery. The Italians have SINH
lsrly fortified other passes nearby, and
there are daily artillery duels, while at
night the whole district is swept by
searchlights. Swiss soldiers on sentry
duty few miles away keep constant
watch over the scene. Near the point
where the Swiss, Italian and Austrian
frontiers meet there are several villages
where the inhabitants all speak a half
dozen languages and dialects.
The principal pass was buried under
two feet of snow when war began be-
tween Austria and Italy, but the Aus
trian Alpinists cleared a path straight
TO the summit, and recently fighting has
been taking place above the clouds, which
cut off both sides from view of their
bases and supporting artillery below, so
that they have to depend for orders and
on the field telephone.
The Italian batteries on the lower
ridges obtained the exact range of the
summit of the pass after few expert
ments. and they keep up continual can
nonade, firing through the clouds, of
course without seeing the result Of their
shots.

experience the greatest difficulty in
