How to PHOTOGRAPH Liqltninq.

1t may not be known by every reader
that in the case of thunderstorm at
night it is a very easy matter to secure
photographs of the lightning. The
camera is focused by scale, if it has
scale, to infinity; if it has no scale,
the infinity point should be found be-
forehand by focusing some distant OBJ
ject. The camera is turned towards
that quarter of the sky to which there
is most likelihood of flash, and the
lens uncapped. After a flash OF two,
theslens may be capped and the plate
changed In developing the results, it
is often impossible to see the flashes
on the plate by the dim red light Of the
dark room; so that each plate should
be developed for the customary time,
fixed and then examined in daylight,
before deciding that there is nothing
on it. Many vivid flashes do not. i'm
press themselves at all, but a fair per-
centage of the exposures will have sue
cessful results.

Why Children Love Singing.

Children love to sing. 1t is a natural
instinct with them. They would rather
sing than study the boundaries Of
Turkestan, and there is no doubt they
would derive more benefit from SO do
ing. The public schools, unfortunately,
have little or no time to develop this
art with the other studies crammed
into an already too heavy curriculum.
ANY time that is allotted to this sub
ject is given over to the teaching of
the simpler fundamentals of music.
The boy who enjoys telling the num-
Der of sharps and flats there are in a
key is an exception. But the child who
wants to sing song with words is the
rule. The problem is to find some
means whereby this wholesome desire
can be fostered. And the answer to
the problem is community choruses for
children.

Why Watch Pepairers Rejoice.

The repairing of watches in Chi
cago has more than doubled as the
result of the telephone company's re-
fusal to give the correct time to sub
scribers hereafter. The change has
also increased the sale Of new watches
and clocks.
According to the manager of one of
the largest department stores in Chi
cago the watch repairing by his es-
adjustment increased by more than
SO per cent almost before the order
became effective.
Figures compiled by the telephone
company showed that more than 250-
900 persons in Chicago called the op-
orator daily and asked "the correct
time, please"

the wood of northern Russia and

The German authorities are no
longer worried on this score.
They know that when they need
it they can find unlimited wood
ready to their hands.
There is gain to them not only
in this freedom from anxiety, not
only in the saving of their owne
beloved forests, not only in the
possibility of using wood more
freely, but also in the release of
man power. Sturdy Russian
peasants will cut the wood, car

Good Word for Snakes.

"Only II of the Ill varieties of
snakes in America are poisonous" !"
writes Glayne K. Norton in American
Forestry. 'None," he asserts, twill at
tack a human being except in self
defense. All Of them destroy rodents
that injure crops and carry commune
cable diseases"
The United States department Of ag-
riculture places our annual crop loss
due to rodents at over 100000, or
something like $5 person.
Just how many more snakes we need
in America to save this $500, 100000 Of
food no one claims to know, but it
may be a good idea for snake haters
to permit the wiggling reptiles longer
lease of life-a reprieve, you might
say, until all the rodents are gone.

ASK ECONOMY OF WATER
Town Council Wishes People to
Use Little as Possible
Pending Pump Repairs.

Because one of the pumps al
the city water plant is out OF
commission, the city council
last night at its meeting decided
to ask the people to use water as
sparinglY as possible for a few
days until repairs can be made.
The cylinder head of one OF
the two engines broke and there
was no spare one. on hand. The
council tried to have the broken
part mended, but that was found
to be impossible. Then it was
determined to wire an order for
one to come by express, and or
der another one by mail to come
by freight. That will give a
spare one for emergencies,
Meanwhile, the people are asked
to not waste water.

SPOTS OF LIFE IN DEAD SEA
Small Fish and Other Living Creatures
Have Been Observed in Desc
late Waters.

The Dead sea is not quite so DESC
late as was represented by early writ
ers, who pictured it as utterly without
life, with sterile shores, and so pesti-
lential that even birds flying over were
liable to fall dead. Though 46 miles
in length and more than 9 miles in
greatest breadth, it is especially not
able as being the greatest depression
on the earth, its surface being 1900
feet lower than that of the Mediter-
ranean. The rainfall is slight, but the
great volume of water poured in by
the Jordan raises the surface 10 or
10 feet at times, though, with no out
LET, this inflow is all evaporated in the
dry season. The water has become
very dense and bitter, while floating
masses of bitumen elected from the
bottom and sulphur deposited from
springs along the shore add to the un-
attractiveness. 1t is true that neither
animal nor vegetable life is to be
found in the safest parts of the sea,
but DR.. w. G. Masterton, in an ac-
count to the Royal Geographical so
ciety, stated that near the shores,
where small brackish streams find en-
trance, occur small fish, crabs and
mosquito larvae. At spot where he
and other travellers saw fish actively
swimming, the water was found to
contain not less than 1873 per cent Of
solids. There are many places along
the shore where acres Of reeds and
many trees flourish, and at such spots
birds and other animal life are abun-
dant.

CIRCUS COMES TO GRIEF
High Wind Blows Down Tent OF
Troop that Had Planned to
Show in NOgales, Son.

The Circo Modelo, which ar
rived in Nogales, Sonora, early
yesterday morning, met with
misfortune during the high wind
yesterday, and as a result there
was no performance last night.
The gale blew down the main
circus tent, and the animal cages
were tumbled about in dangerous
fashion. Luckily, none of the
animals escaped, and the tent
will be repaired and put up
again, probably in time for per-
formances this afternoon and
evening.

Innkeepers' Sicns.

In the middle ages, before turnpikes
were constructed, the castles of the
barons and the monasteries offered
shelter and food to travellers. The
baronial arms were always hung before
the castles in prominent positions, the
object being to enable wayfaring stran-
gers to identify a gwen house
by the most conspicuous object in the
device. Thus, if rose, lily or lion
appeared in bold relief the building
was named by the traveller by one
or other of these terms. After the
overthrow of the feudal powers and the
suppression of the monasteries the
wayside hostelry was the only re-
source left to wanderers, and it took
over the former custom by displaying
signs.
