MYSTERY OF THE PLANETS.
Science Cannot Penetrate the hazy
 vsiIs That Mask Them,

It is not known definitely whether the planet Venus rotates. If 1t does 1t may possibly have life and a vegeta- tion like our own. though we suspect that it is clothed in eternal cloud. or Saturn's rings we cannot say whether they consist of millions of tiny moons like brickbats or whether they may be even smaller still-a veil of shining dust.
 Of Jupiter we can only say that it is covered with clouds. though of their substance we know nothing. and that according to Professor Lowell and Sir William Huggins some of the bands we see on 1t may be rifts in the clouds revealing the body of the planet. Lit tie lines crisscrOss these bands. Photo. graphs of Jupiter taken at Flagstaff observatory, Arizona, seem to indicate that these lines. too. are the upper clouds of Jupiter.
 But whenever we see planet we see it badly. Even Mars. the most clearly revealed of them all, is constantly ob- scured by a refracting haze, so that even the famous "canals," though nearly 500 fin number. are only per ceptible a few at time. and an un. skilled observer would probably not make them out at all.
 Sandstorms, sometimes snowstorms. sweep the surface of the planet. and because the winds of Mars are very gentle and slow moving these occur rences take long time to pass by. X snowstOrm on Mars-if indeed 1t was snowstorm and not merely fog-once lasted three weeks.

Historic Pawnee Rock.

A short distance north of Pawnee Rock station, Kansas, is high south
 ward facing cliff of sandstone known as Pawnee rock. projecting as rocky promontory from the broad ridge that forms the north side of the valley. The elements and the hand of man. says d report of the geological survey. have made great changes in its size and appearance since the days when the Santa Fe trail passed along it's base. Here there were many encoun- ters between the savages and the whites and also between hostile bands of Indians, for the place is noted not only in pioneer history, but in Indian traditions as well. Names and initials of many travellers, from the early trap pers and the "forty-niners" to the later army attachments, have been scratch ed on the smooth faces of the ledges.

HYGIENE IN THE BEEHIVE.
The Way Intruders Are Sealed Up In
 Tomb of Wax.

Tomb of Wax.
 It has been observed that bees have a most ingenious and sanitary way of disposing of living creature that may by accident or design chance to find its way into their hive. When the intruder is killed, as killed he must be, whether he be large or small, the problem arises how to deal with the body.
 If the bees find that 1t Is impossible to expel or dismember the creature they will proceed cleverly to inclose 1t in a veritable sepulcher of wax. In one of his hives a beekeeper discov- cred three such tombs side by side. erected with party walls like the cells of the comb, i'll order that no wax might be wasted. These tOmbs the prudent bees had raised over the re- mains of three snails that had strayed into the hive.
 AS a rule the bees will, when deal inc with snails. be content to seal up with wax the opening of the shell. In this case, however, the Snails' shells were more or less cracked or broken. The bees had therefore considered it simpler to bury the snails entire, and the bees had further contrlved. in or der that traffic might not be impedeI in the entrance hall of the hive. num- Der of galleries exactly proportiOnate not to their own girth. but to that of the male bees, which are almost twice as large as the workers.-Exchange.

Birds That Sing During Flight.

In reference to a recent paragraph about birds that sing while flying a correspondent writes:
 ''The cuckoo is fine bird that sings as it flies. especially when pursued by angry little birds whose nest 1t has attempted to invade, as I have several times seen and heard. Then the tree pipit and whitethroat generally rise from their perch and fiutter in the air while singing, besides swallows. if you count their twittering as a song. l have also seen and heard missel thrush and blackbird sing while flying, but only very rarely."-London Mail.

MRS. CAVkNA.
 TAXES OWN LIFE
SENDS BULLET THROUGH BRAIN
In Her Apartments in Juneau In Presence of her Husbank-So Cause Known for Rash Act.

Mrs. J. J. Cavana, formerly a resi- dent of Valdez and who left here about two months ago to join her husband at Juneau, committed sui eide at that place last Tuesday by sending a bullet from an automatic pistol crashing into her brain. Tho Juneau Dispatch gives the following account of the tragedy.
 Mrs. J. J. Cavana, nee Lydia Swensen. suicided last night at 7:30 o'clock in her bedroom in house or Rowan Way, near Gastineau avenue, with an automatic pistol firing one tullet through the right temple. The deed was committed in the presence of her husband upon his returning home from a brief trip down town. The deceased is a native of Illinois, being born in a town near Chicago, and about two months ago came to Juneau from Valdez to join her hus- band who runs the compressor at the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company. he having left Valdez for Juneau shortly before. The deceased was we'll known hereabouts and at Cordo. va. He is a member of the local or ders of Elks.
 Cavana, when interviewed last night, seemed heart broken. He said in substance that during supper lit tie before o'clock, he and his wife were discussing financial matters; that after eating he went down town and very shortly thereafter returned to his home; that upon approaching the house he heard his wife walk from one room over in to the bed room; he entered, approached the bed chamber and as he did so, his wife said: Don't come in here; I'll shoot you," and immediately raised the gun to her right temple and fired. l hur- ried down town and inquired for the coroner: he came shortly thereafter. V
 Officer Dan Harrington said last night that Cavana came up to hiin aud asked for the coroner; the chief of police was passing at the time; l told him of the matter; he, Cavano and myself went up to the house and found the woman lying on her back in the bed: bullet hole in the right side of her head over the ear; there was pool of blood in the bed.
 The Chief of Police said that he az companied them to the house and found the woman lying as above de- scribed; that the automatic gun WAS on the floor by the bed. There was a note on the desk asking that her mother not be notified.
 MT. Cavana was at loss to assign any reason for his wifes rash deed. He said, "our talk over money mat ters was not in the nature of quar el--we were simply discussing some misunderstanding concerning funds. cannot understand why she com mitted suicide"
 The remains were taken to the .. w. Young undertaking parlors and will probably be inferred in Juneau.
