Speed OF No Return.

The speed OF no return is that speed
which one would have TO send body, a
bullet, Tor instance, straight up in the air
so that if would never come back. The
rate of this speed has been estimated to
be about seven miles second If a bull
let could be given that velocity away from
the earth it would never fall back to our
planet, but would travel on into space in
an orbit OF IFS own around the sun.
As 10 the possibilities of anything ever
attaining this speed, no one can say.
Scientists say all they know is that the
rictton OF the air would probably melt
and then vaporize the body before if sue
ceeded in getting through the eanh's
ocean Of air. The speed OF the modern
army bullet is about one-twelfth OF the
speed OF no return, being a little over
half mile second.
Instances OF the speed of no return are
seen when meteors fall into the atmos-
phere OF the earth. They very seldom
actually reach the eanh's surface, but are
melted and vaporized by the enormous
amount Of heat evolved from friction with
the air at such an enormous velocity.

FRESH BEYOND ALL DOUBT
Angler Tells Of Fish That Was Cooked
In What Might Be Called
Record Time.

Positively the freshest caught hsh
I ever ate," said an ardent fisherman
was one caught in the wilds OF Can
ada. A friend OF mine and were out
with a canoe and light outfit for
two weeks trout fishing. Along late
one afternoon we struck nkely-look'
Ing stream, made camp for the night,
and went to fishing. In half an hour
we had our pockets full OF trout.
Then we rolled a couple OF stones
together, started fire and put on the
frying pan. While my friend was busy
with that I said to him I guessed Ia
catch a fish or two more while he was
cooking.
I'm half a minute I had half-pound
trout. l swung this fish out and over
him, where he stood by the fire. for
him to look at.
Hold him so for minute my
friend says to me, and did. Just over
his head.
you know there's a way OF clean
ing a fish by which you remove Its
head and viscera practically at touch
and my friend knew how. He reached
up with his knife to that fish dang.
ling over his head and nicked It in the
right spot at the back Of its head
and then in front at the gills and then
he just drew the head and interior 1T
ting away all at once, leaving the fish
perfectly cleaned, and then, while It
was still dripping with the water from
which / had caught 1t, he dropped this
trout in the frying pan.
You couldn't have fish much fresh
or caught than that, do you Think"

Killed Snake; Found Gold.

w. e. Noble, a pioneer desert team
ster, took a shot at a rattlesnake
coiled up close to the road In the Cali
CO country, near Sodaville, New, says
the Los Angeles Times. Immediately
after the shot his curiosity prompted
the marksman to look at rock which
had been broken by the bullet after
It had passed through the snakes
head, and the assay Of the rock runs
upward of $3.50 a ton in gold and 900
ounces Of silver. At the present time
there are $500 tons Of ore in sight pro-
jecting about the surface of the sur
rounding country, which is included In
the claim staked out by Noble.
Fishing for rattlers In the mountains
near San Bernardino, Cal, Is good.
Two anglers fishing along a stream in
the region Of Big Bear lake disturbed
two rattlers in a hole in the rocks
along the waters edge. Being unable
to get at them In any other way, the
anglers fastened hooks to the ends Of
their poles, and after prodding the
snakes for awhile the reptiles became
mad and struck at their tormentors,
whereupon they were caught on the
hooks and drawn out Of the hole.
