cIinker ExpIOdes And
Blows Janitor Endways

John Whalen, the high school jani-
tor 1t wheatland, Wyoming, is Of an
inquiring not to say scientific turn of
mind.
While fishing around in the bot
tom of the furnace John found a
clinker which interested him. He
thought he would break it open and
see what was inside of 1t. While he
was examining it infinitely the clinker
broke itself open.
1t exploded with such terrific force
that 1t blew John heels over head
backward, blew a hole in the floor of
the high school and blew itself to a
powder.
The worst of 1t is, John will never
know what was inside the clinker.

MORALITY AT A DISCOUNT
Evidently Guide Had Learned Wisdom
From Association With the Modern
Business Man.

Attorney General Daugherty said
at a dinner In New York:
"There's a certain class OF bust
ness men--a very small class, thank
goodness-whose honesty reminds me
Of fish story.
'Two men with their guides were
fishing for salmon In Lake Sunapee.
The first mans bag of salmon was
the smaller of the two, so he swiped
a fish from the second man.
"But the second man caught him
in the act. He had the nerve, though,
to deny his guilt, and he refused posi-
lively to give back the stolen salmon
"a pretty bitter alteration fol
lowed, Of course, and 1t looked as II
there would be fist fight; but just
as they were peeling off their coats
the second mans guide-it was the
second man who had been robbed, you
know-the second mans guide drew
him aside and whispered:
"'Ah, let him have it, boss, let him
have 1t. got two of his"

Disuusted Genius.

Even the art students are denied a
little fun nowadays. Aspirants for
fame were recently informed that for
their years competition for the Prix
de Rome they could submit either "A
Nude Boy" or a "Prometheus."
These themes seemed rather hack
neyed to the ambitious mind of youths,
and the students protested, pleading
for some less banal test Of their pow
ers. The protest was ignored, and
one Of the students, in the exuberance
of his disgust, proceeded to ridicule the
decision of the authorities by himself
posing as "a nude boy" in one of the
windows of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts.
The Philistine residents in the
Beaux-Arts quarter were much scan.
dallzed and complained to the author
tiles of the school. with the result that
as a punishment for the students lev
ity 1t has been decided to hold no COM
petition for the Prix de Rome this

EASY WAY TO CRACK NUTS
Scientists Recommend Use of Liquid
Air as Best Means OF Getting
at DeIectabie Kernel.

Liquid air for cracking nuts is the
latest application of science. Science
and Invention relates that experts at
the national bureau of standards in
Washington were appealed to for a
method Of breaking the shells OF
chicha nuts without damaging the
kernels. They found that it took a
weight of nearly ton to crack the
shells, and that after that effort the
meat Of the nut was broken In many
small pieces. .a
Then they applied liquid air to the
problem. They did not freeze solid a
piece of rubber and use 1t as ham,
mer, as is done in the classic stunt of
physics, but they simply immersed the
nuts in liquid air for 80 seconds and
cracked them easily without damage
to the kernels. Now the physicists
are trying to find out whether this
method can be applied commercially
on large scale.
Chicha nuts are grown in South
America. Their dense, strong shells
were used during the war to make
charcoal for gas masks. and the oil
from the kernels is a valuable food
similar to copra.

RECEIVED DOLE FROM ENEMY
Irish IrreeuIars Stopped in the Mid
die of Fighting to Draw Their
Unemployment Pay.

For several years the unemployed
In Ireland, as in Britain, have been
receiving a government dole weekly,
relates Mall Roman in the Outlook.
The provisional government has con-
tinued this. Despite the difficulties
of distributing it during the recent
trouble, it was very anxious that 1t
should not be stopped, lest any ex-
cuse should be given for looting.
One of the district offices was there
fore opened-not more than 20 yards
from Moran's hotel, an irregular
stronghold, now destroyed. After sew
eral hundred men had quietly entered,
undismayed by the rifle fire from the
national and rebel forces outside, and
signed for and received their money,
seven republicans came calmly across
from the hotel, showed that they were
entitled to payment, were paid, and
returned to their duties as enemy sol
diers of the government whose money
lay in their pockets.

WON OVER ALL HANDIcAPs
Famous Explorer Conquered DISABLE.
tiles That Would Have Daunted
Big Majority of Mankind.

The belated dedication of monu-
ment to DIR. Elisha Kent Kane, once
a famous Arctic explorer, is a re-
minder Of an achievement quite as
remarkable as anything that Kane
did to add to the sum of knowl-
edge of the polar regions. This
was his mastery of physical handicaps
which would have daunted ninety
nine men In a hundred. He was
physically so frail that he was un-
able to complete his studies at col
lege; he completed his medical edu-
cation ct home, became a surgeon In
the navy, and while physician Of the
American legation at Picking began
his career as an explorer which
marked him for fame. 1t is less
known than 1t ought to be that his
polar researches, important though
they were, constituted only a small
part of his work. He succeeded In
descending into the crater Of the Taal
volcano, though several able-bodied
adventures had failed; he fought
Bedouins in Egypt; he crossed the
island of Luzon on foot, and he made
an early study of Alpine glaciers in
Switzerland. All this and more he
accomplished before he died at the
age Of thirty-seven, sustained always
by unfaltering pluck and by deter
mination such as few men possess.

ANTELOPE BEING WIPED OUT
Despite Possession of Remarkable
Signaling System the Animals
Are Rapidly Disappearing.

The American pronghorn antelope is
approaching extinction. Formerly
roaming from the Saskatchewan to
Mexico, and east to the Missouri river,
1t is now confined to few hundred
wild animals and a few more In en-
closures.
Rowing creatures, easily the swift
est runners on the continent, living
mainly in the open, they have be-
come easy prey for long-range rifles
when fleet-footed enemies were cas-
lily outdistanced.
Eten their remarkable signaling
system has not saved them. Ernest
Seton-Thompson has explained how,
on approach of some strange object,
the antelope through set of muscles
raises with a jerk the hairs on the
white rump patches on either side.
This flash shines afar like a patch
Of snow, and the message is read by
all WHO have noses to read, for with
the flash of hair is liberated an odor
of musk from gland located in a
patch Of brown hair In the white
bloom.
The fash is given and away they
go. If the flash is not seen their
keen sense of smell carries the mes
sage even over long distances.

SCARED BY UNUSUAL SOUND
Music ~ of Motor Horn Drove Lions
From Oxen Which Had Seemed
to Them Easy Prey.

The foot Of single motor horn has
been found sufficient, in Africa, to
quiet stampeded oxen and cause trio
of flesh-hunting lions to stink away
into the bushes.
Two native drivers were recently
conducting wagon drawn by sixteen
oxen to the railroad camp, in the wilds
near Na1uru, the site of the new Uasin
Gishu railroad, when the oxen were
attacked by three lions. The drivers
fled to nearby trees. The oxen be-
came panic-stricken and dashed down
the rough road, dragging along the
body of one OK, killed by the lions,
with the swaying wagon behind them.
The lions followed their prey.
This was the mad procession that
greeted lone motorlst at curve of
the road. He had no rifle, and it was
almost an unconscious movement that
took his hand to the horn button. At
the first sound the lions seemed nom
plussed. The motorist then blew loud
and long. AS the uncanny and sus-
tanned shrek rose above the clamor of
the frightened animals the lions skunk
away among the rocks, headed for the
shelter of the bush, and the oxen
swung clear of the dust-covered auto
mobile and came to stop at the side
Of the road.
