DEATH FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK
Cessation of Life Is Due to contrae.
ton of the FibrIIs or Muscular
Flbers of the Heart.

While every one knows that an cleo
trio shock, If powerful enough, will
cause death, there are very few who
know exactly the cause, and from a
description given in recent English
magazine, quoting an authority on the
subject, the whole matter is simple.
Death produced from electric shock,
says this magazine, usually is the re-
suit of contraction of the fibrils or
muscular fbers of the heart, or of
paralysis of the respiratory organs.
While doctors have been unable to
find any treatment that will cure the
former, artificial respiration often
overcomes the respiratory paralysis.
The effects of direct and alternating
currents vary with the current
strength, the duration of contact and
the path through the body; and with
alternating currents low frequency
usually is more dangerous than high.
The lower animals are more suscep-
tible to electric shock than man, dogs
often being killed by direct current
Of 20 volts. In the average man d.
rect current of 100 volts is scarcely
felt, 200 or 800 volts give rise to mus
cular cramps, while $40 volts viii stop
respiration suddenly.

TRULY A VALUABLE HOUND
Visitor From Costa RIGA Tells Story
Which Some People Might Find
IL Hard to Believe.

At last the existence of the banana
hound has been shown to be fact!
A man who just arrived in this
country from Port Limon, Costa Rica,
not only knows all about the banana
hound, but has a drove Of them him.
self. The gentleman is Hezekiah
Spottiswood, and for many years the
owner of a banana plantation in Costa
RIGA.
us the banana hound new discov-
cry up here?" he asked in surprise.
my word, how singular! Why, we al
ways have them. They are very es-
sential adjunct to a banana planta,
ton; indispensable almost, l should
say. What is the breed? They are
a cross between a pointer and South
American tapir.
tits very necessary thing to know
when to pick the bananas from the
trees, you know. When they have at
tanned a certain shade of green, then
is the time. Now it's very difficult to
have man so thoroughly up in color
that he can determine this matter.
That is where the banana hound
comes in. He trots the groves with
a man behind him, and scents the
punches which should be picked. He
stands in front of the tree and gives
a long moan, which sounds familiar to
the siren at Sandy Hook. Then he
points to a particular bunch with his
tail.
1.-THE scent of'the hound is unerring.
1t has never been known to fail.

SEA WATER FOUND IN LAYERS
Lower Strata Contain Less Dissolved
Oxygen and This Has Influence
on Fish Life.

Land animals breathe in oxygen with
the air. Fish get it, but less of it, of
course, dissolved in water. Messrs.
J. w. Sale and w. w. Skinner re-
ported in a paper presented at a meet
ing of the American Chemical society
that the lower layers of certain tidal
waters contained less dissolved oxygen
than the upper layers.
They show this to be due to the
greater specific gravity of the under
layers compared to those above them.
In other words, the water is found
in strata, according to its weight, and
this prevents an up-and-down circula-
ton. When we recognize that the
oxygen is also depleted by other
agencies there is sometimes found TO
he very little of it in the lower layers.
The depletion is greatest in Septem-
Der
Tidal waves and storms bring
precipitates which with the depletion
of oxygen have a great influence on
fish life.

CITY IS HIGH in -THE AI2
Cavalier, Capital of Native lnC'-,
State, Built on Top Of Rock 800
Feet i'm Height.

South of Agra in the hot half-desert
country of central India great rock
looms out of the fat plain. The sides
of the butte, as it would be called in
the Rocky Mountain country, rise
sheer for about 800 feet, and the area
of its surface is large enough to sup
port a city. 1t is about two miles long
by a quarter Of a mile in breadth.
This is Gwalior, the capital of a ma
tive Indian state under British domin-
alton, and once one of the strongest
military positions in India.
Two other cities are instantly called
to mind by the sight Of Gwalior-one,
the neighbor city Of Chitor, perched on
its rock to the southwest, the other
the Pueblo Indian village of AcOma,
lust half way around the world in the
New Mexico desert. All three of them
were picked for their military value,
and all three have outlived their use
fulness.
A narrow winding road cut out of
the rock leads from the plain to the
citadel above. At the top Of the road
is the beautiful painted palace, its ex-
terror tiled over with ornamented, high
ly glazed tiles of a workmanship
whose secret has been lost. Color and
design are each perfect after their
fashion, making the palace one Of the
sights of India. Inside, alas, it is not
a sight but a smell. The bats, the
multtudinous Indian bats, have taken
possession; they swarm here as in no
other place for hundreds of miles
around, and no creature with nose
can remain to admire the interior of
the painted palace.

Nature Smiles on MALAGA.

Malaga is perhaps the oldest of
Spanish cities. Certainly she is III
many ways the fairest of them all. Ii
ever there was a lotus land, it is here.
The rich earth is fairly bursting with
fertility. hidden under a wealth of
Semi-tropical vegetation, with here and
there the green vine hills that bear
the grapes for which Malaga is known
all over the world. There are flowers,
too, great, gaudy blooms, that go
with the South sea appearance of the
aIoes and palmettoes and palms. In
a word, Malaga is a city where nature
smiles. Sometimes a year Will go by
there without seven cloudy days.
