The Whale and the EauIe.

There are two animals that puzzle
naturalists more than any others. They
are Natures submarine and aeroplane
the whale and the eagle. 1t is known
that whales occasionally descend as
far as 5000 feet below the surface Of
the sea- depth at which, from the
pressure Of water. they ought to be
crushed fat. Why they are not in
jured naturalists have yet to discov-
err. 1t is this pressure that prevents
modern submarine from descending
more than some 800 feet. Eagles have
been seen, through telescopes, to fly
with apparent ease from 10000 to 49,
900 feet above sea level. At that
height no human being can live, ow-
ing to the rarefcation Of the air. How
the birds live and fly at far greater
heights than man can endure is an
other question still unanswered

MAKES FIGHT ON 'HOARDlNGS'
English Newspaper Proud of Action
Which Does Away With These
Blots on the Landscape.

Under the head "Hideous Hoard
ings" We find an interesting note in a
daily paper Of London wherein Is
shown the suhordination of the bill
board to the claims of the landscape.
England is as badly afflicted with bill
boards, largely advertising American
goods, as we are, and it must be quite
relief to find even a single county
that has RELOCATED them to their crop
er place, for it would now seem as
though the latter is indefinitely indi-
Gated by the following list Of restric-
tons taken from the London Daily
Graphic:
''ln the campaign against hideous
hoardings the latest bylaw to come
into force is the following. which was
promulgated by the Surrey county
council on Saturday: No ADVERTISE
ment shall be exhibited on any hoard
ing, stand, or other erection so as to
be visible from any public highway
whether carriageway, hridgeway or
footway), or from any public water
way whether river, tributary or
canaD, or from any railway, so as to
disfgure the natural beauty of the

ICED a number of nature-study clubs,
the members making a business Of
going atield Saturday and holidays to
study and collect Sometimes the

to get into closer touch with nature
than is possible at school---to really
see and come in contact with many of
the things only known at school
through hearsay. Some of the mem

Ever See a Fish's "Sou!''?
Look Right In His Face.

Fish can not sing or dance, or attend
dinner parties-eXcept in an unfortu-
nate caracity-but they have souls.
said DR.. Paul Bartsch, curator of the
National Museum, before the Aqua
rum Society.
IF you want to know whether a GER
tain fish is kindly disposed to you,
look at it's face" advised DR.. Bartsch.
'The physiognomy of fish reveals it's
character, just in the same way that
a mans most secret traits are i'm
printed on his face.
IF human being has soul, why
not concede one to other animals? Man
is a physical organism, only different
from other organisms in that his is
more perfectly developed. 1t is certain
fish are temperamental-s fish are
sluggish, others are lively"

Motorcycles may supplant cavalry in
war. Compared with cavalry move
ments the motorcycle has done things
which seem incredible. On Memorial
day report was received at Fort
Bliss of a bandit raid "a miles away.
Exactly two hours later the motor
cycle company was on the spot.
A few weeks later another raid was
reported Is miles from Font Bliss. The
motorcycle company reached this place
In 80 minutes. The first trip would
have taken troop Of cavalry two days
and the second four hours.

Pioneers for Civic Problems.

All civic problems stand sorely In
need of pioneers to point the way and
create public sentiment in the educa
ton of the masses. The great and i'm
portant task of bringing the country
into the city, the unmasking of what
nature we have and preserving it in
the fullest and highest must necessar
lily be done by the municipal officials
But the machinery of government on
all such matters moves slowly and a
strong and sound public opinion must
be formed and expressed in order 10

officials to tackle these problems cour-

accomplish their proper solution
This they will do when assured great
numbers demand it. Do not forget
that your help is needed.

Poetry Increases Temperature.

A local dfsengagemento of heat seems
to accompany brain activity. Dr. J. S.
Lombard found in more than 10000
observations that any intellectual ef
fort, such as computing, composing, re-
citing poetry silently or aloud, and
especially that emotional excitement,
such as fit Of anger, caused a gen.
eral rise of temperature.
The rise was in most cases more
marked in the middle region Of the
head than elsewhere. Strange to say,
it was greater in reciting poetry 81
lently than in reciting it aloud. Doc.
tor Lombard's explanation is that gin
.lternal recitation an additional por.
ton of energy, which in recitation
aloud was converted into nervous and
Muscular force, now appears as heat"

WAYS UNJUSTLY RATED.
Those Afflicted With Thai Form Of
Timidity Underestimate Because
Their Real Selves Are Never
Allowed Proper Expression.

DR.. Orison SWEET Marden, the world.
known philosopher, says:
Hawthorne was one of the shyest
men that ever lived. He used to walk
the streets with his eyes on the ground
to avoid recognizing others, and ii he
saw anyone he knew ne would cross
the street to escape the embarrass-
ment of meeting. Later in life he
said God might forgive sins, but awk-
wardness had no forgiveness in heaven
or on earth. His own imagined awk-
wardness was due to his timidity, his
morbid self-consciousness.
After spending the evening at Emer-
sons house, George William Curtis
spoke of Hawthorne, who had sat 81
lent as shadow all evening and mad
scarcely spoken to anyone. Curtis won
dered why no one had looked after
him. But being looked after" would
only have made him more miserable.
Once, when making a call, Hawthorne
asked his hostess what he should
talk about and she advised him eli
mate"
It is not recorded whether he found
even this topic sufficiently inspiring to
tempt him to break his habitual ST.
lence. Visiting a naval officer, and
being pressed for something to say,
Hawthorne asked him if he had ever
been in the Sandwich islands. His
host concluded that the man who
would ask aimless, silly questions of
this sort could not be much of
genius.

There is something about them that
= arepels people, and yet they feel kindly
toward everybody. They would be
glad Of chance to do a favor to
anyone, but they are misunderstood
because they are too timid and shy
to come out of their shell.
!, Shy people are constantly misunder-
stood and underestimated, because

Submarine Thawine.
washington starr

The use of electricity for thawing
frozen water pipes in city houses is
no longer uncommon, but an unusual
in this relation was the
not SO long ago of the
process to a 6-inch submarine main,
100 feet long, connecting North
Brother island with New York city.
When an ordinary water pipe is to
be thawed both ends are cut and the
passage of a comparatively small
electric current through the resistant
pipe metal generates sufficient heat
to melt the ice in the pipe. Although
the same general plan was followed
with the frozen submarine main, all
the conditions were so difficult that ii
took five days of applying powerful
electric currents and of constant
pumping with pressure of sc
pounds to do the work.

SNAKE RIVER GOLD.
How 1t Is Mined Along the Bars and
Benches in South Idaho

For many years gold has been
known to exist in the valley of Snake
liver, particularly in the part of it that
passes through southern Idaho. AS
early as 1852 prospectors are reported
to have extracted gold from gravels
in Jackson Hole. 1t occurs at many
places both on the present river bars
and on terraces along the river repre-
senting ancient levels of the water but
it does not occur in quantity so great
as to support large operations with
marked financial success, though some
miners have made a small amount of
money. Probably the most extensive
workings We're in southern Idaho, in
the vicinity of Rupert, Minidoka and
American Falls.
Most of the gold is very small flakes
having an average fineness of .945.
About $4,000 has been produced since
1902, the earliest date for which re-
cords are available. A little platinum
occurs with the gold but not in COM
mercial quantities.
Many dredges and process ma
chimes have been tried on Snake river,
most of them depending on amalgama-
ton for the recovery of the gold, but
the sluiee and rocker, the sluice sup
plemented by burlap tables, have prov
ed the most successful
