Strange Telephone Wire.

Whether we shall ever be able to see
our friends at distance, as we new
talk with them, is something for the
science of the future to determine; but
II we ever do so, it will doubtless be
through the mysterious connection be-
tween light, electricity and the ele-
ment selenium.
Selenium belongs to what is known
as the sulphur group of elements. 1t is
remarkable for the wonderful proper
ty by which its electrical conductivity
varies according to the amount of light
falling upon it, just as the chemical re-
latlons of silver are altered by the
same means.
BY this singular property Of Sc
Ienlum Professor Bell was enabled 10
construct an optical telephone, and
actually transmitted words and sem
fences between two distant points
which were not connected in any way
except by beam of light, which faith
fully carried the vibrations of his
voice to selenium disk, by which they
wer transformed into electric energy
were transformed in an ordinary tele-
phone.

Eagles are not numerous anywhere
in the world, but there have been more
Of them in Alaska than in any other
region. Two years ago the Territorial
legislature, influenced by stories of
the depredations that eagles we're
making on the salmon beds, passed
law that set bounty of fifty cents
head upon them. Since then, lid to
the beginning of this year, the bounty
has been claimed and paid on $3.50
eagles. Now the societies interested
in protecting wild life are taking the
matter up. What damage the eagles
do to the fisheries amounts to little, for
the salmon die, anyway, after spawn
ing, and it is chiefly the dead fish that
the birds eat. We need not Worship
the American eagle as ancient nations
worshiped their symbolic animals, but
at least We need not exterminate his
kind.

Nail-Biting.

The practice Of nibbling at the
'fnger-nails is to be condemned. first
on the ground that the nails are there
by rendered brittle and unsightly. and
secondly, because it is a senseless
habit which makes the practice of it 4
source Of constant Irritation to the
friends Of any one who has the habit
The habit is usually acquired at
school in early childhood, and steps
should at once be taken to break il
up.
This may be done in various WAYS
1t is usually sufficient to explain 10
the child the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the
habit, requesting him to be constantly
watchful against it in himself, and to
discourage the practice in everv one
else. Punishment is usually uncall-
ed for.
Strategy may be resorted to in case
the habit is well established. The
finger ends may be dipped in some
harmless preparation of a disagreeable
or bitter nature, which will serve to re.
mind the child what he is doing.
A French investigator has lately
published the results of an elaborate
study of the subject, chiefly in ref
erence to the importance of the habit
as an indication of nervous disease.
His Investigations have been rur-
sued among the school children of
Paris, among whom he found the
habit widely prevalent. or the total
number of children examined, abou,
one-third were given to the practice
the greater proportion being among
the girls. The age at which the habit
was most common was found to be
between twelve and fifteen years.
The investigator thinks he has dis
covered remarkable relation between
naIl-biting and defective, or at least
an impaired stability OF, mind and
character, as all the teachers united
in saying that the pupils addicted 70
nall-biting were the poorest students
lie bows were inclined to effemin1cv,
arr the girls to sickness Both sexes
showed a lessened ability to sustain
the attention, and were consequently
the hardest pupils 20 teach.
According to this French student
the habit is best corrected by endcavor-
irg to transform the unconscious act
into conscious one. thereby counter
acting the tendency to confirmed
habit.
1t is doubtful if nail-biting is indi-
cative of anything more serious than
a nervous temperament. which should
be treated on general principles.

4 Growing Pearl.

II is said that any small substance
CT particle placed inside of an oyster
soon becomes coated over with a pei
lucid film. The creature has a nat
ural provision in its own fluids for COW
ering everything it can neither use as
food nor get rid Of. But the process
of making a genuine pearl in its ma
tive beauty is probably as here de-
scribed:
The perfect pearl is found loose in
the interior of the flesh, and has its
beginning in an animal germ. TIE
oyster annually produces number Of
eggs which, as soon as they develop
into diminutive animals, are thrown
out by the mother.
Occasionally, however, an egg proves
abortive and remains behind. 1t is
almost microscopic in size and is in
closed in tiny capsule.
This capsule now becomes, to all
'ntents and purposes, 4 foreign sub
stance. Blu. it has certain powers akin
70 those OF the parent, one of which
is that of manufacturing, throwing
ont and gathering around itself nac.c,
o. mother f-pearl.
The ra>re completely envelopes Z
and the germ of an animal is soan in
cased in beautiful Prison, usually
spherical in form. but sometimes pear
shaped. Its size, of course, depends
OIL the length of time to which the
proceeds is continued, as the pearl is
enlarged by constant deposits from
year to ycar.-Exchange.

Net Shiftless But Polite.

A Boston young man who once took
a riding journey of five weeks in South
Carolina, speaks with enthusiasm OF
the politeness of the farmers and other
plain people with whom he stopped
from time. On one occasion he took
dinner at farmhouse, and afterward
sat upon the front porch talking TO his
host and thinking to postpone his de-
parture till the cool of the evening.
The Southerner kept examining the
sky as if apprehensive of a storm, and
looked with dismay at his crops scat
tered over the fields, evidently fearing
that they would be ruined.
what piece of Southern shiftless-
ness" the Bostonian said to himself.
This lazy fellow prefers gossiping to
working, although the probability is
that his crops will be ruined before
nightfallw
After a while, however, the idea came
into the Northerner's head that per-
haps his host felt it impolte to leave a
guest, and so sat asking the news from
the North, and telling humorous an
ecdotes, while longing to get at his
crops.
No sooner did the traveller arrive at
this possible explanation of his hosts
conduct than he babe him a cordial but
brief farewell, sprang upon his horse,
and rode away.
Turning in his saddle a moment la
ter, he saw his host with a pitchfork
in his hand dashing at full speed round
the corner of the house to the barn,
that he might get out his horse and set
to work.

CHAMPION FRETS
AT IDLENESS IN
TRAINING CAMP
Slips Off and Take a Long Walk
Coming Back Perspiring
Like a Horse.

Atlantic City, June 2.-Jack Demp-
sey today began to show indications
of cracking under the spell Of his en-
forced four days of idleness. The
heavyweight champion is becoming
more fretful because of the enforced
inactivity of his camp and is eager
to resume his conditioning grind on
Saturday which will be continued
without interruption until he finishes
his training for the defense of his
title against Georges Carpenter at
Jersey City, July Q. Despite the fact
that Jack Kearne, manager of the
champion, placed his training para
phernalia under lock and key before
his departure for New York, Dempsey
could not resist the temptation to go
ON the road. The champion left camp
secretly and alone, returning forty
minutes later dripping wet with per-
spiration.
The title holder broke his silence
on the possible outcome of his fight
July when a friend asked him point
blank if he would knock out Carpen-
tier.

ingly he replied, "and if I'm feeling
good that day the fight will be over
inside of four rounds"
Later on, Dempsey was asked what
he would do if Carpenter landed flush
on his jaw like he did against Joe
Beckett, in England.
Il guess I'd have to resign, too"
smiled Dempsey. "But he hasn't hit
ME on the chin yet"

PICKING JURY FOR
TRIAL OF BRYANT
ON MURDER CHARGE
Orlando Man Arrested in New
Jersey Charged by His Wife
With Parricide.

Orlando, June 2.-The selection of
a jury for the trial of John R. Bryant
charged with the murder Of his father,
George Bryant. began today in the
circuit court here.
The body of Bryant was discovered,
together with that of his dog, in a
shallow grave near the Bryant home
several days after the young man and
his wife had disappeared. The couple
were arrested in New Jersey last
month.
Mrs. Bryant is also charged with
aiding in the murder. In statement
to newspaper men. last week she de-
clared her husband informed her that
he killed his father. It is expected
the case against the woman will be
quashed
The night of the alleged killing,
Mrs. Bryant said she heard her hus-
band moving about the lower floor
of the room and later from a window
saw him back wagon to the door,
load into it a mattress. and several
other articles, and drive away. On
his return, she said, she heard him
scrubbing and he later told her he
had killed his father and had been
engaged in washing away bloodstains
on the floor.
Mrs. Bryant has been confined at
the county prison farm while her
husband was held in jail.

Tulsa, June 2.-Offlcials hope to
clear up by the investigation just
what led to the shooting Mnday night.
A newspaperman at the court house
at the time said about 25 white men
gathered at the south side Of the
building. Three Of the leaders en-
tered the court house, he said, on the
top floor of which Dick Rowland, ne
gro. was being held for an alleged at
tack on a white girl in the elevator
Of a downtown building.
Most of the white men were not
armed, according to the newspaper
man.
Sheriff Mccullough met the three
men who entered the building, and
warned them away with the declara-
ton that the negro would be protected
at any cost. The prisoner was in q
cell at the top of a winding stairway
which could easily have been held by
a few men against mob.
About 80 negroes. some Of them
armed, gathered in little groups west

were determined to stay.

The negroes moved away and took

white crowd remaining near the court
house, however, received reinforce

in motor cars racing past the court

away from the court house and it was

and the unrestricted entry of cheap
labor from foreign countries. Prohibi-
