Windows must be oovered with close meshed wire netting so that no papers can be handed through. A statement must be made a year in advance of tlio amount of ink required, which will be supplied by the state.

Hint to Coal Consumers.

A Swedish professor, Svend Arrhenius, lias evolved a new theory of the extinction of the human raoe. He holds that tile combustion of coal by civilized man is gradually warming tlie atmosphere so that in the course of a few cycles of 10,000 years the earth will be baked in a temperature close to the boiling point. He bases his theory on the accumulation of carbonic acid in the atmosphere, wliich acts as ayglass in concentrating and refracting the heat of the sun.

New Table of Values.

“Now, children,” said the teacher to tlie class in advanced arithmetic, “you may recite in unison the table of values.” And the children repeated in chorus: “Ten mills make a trust. “Ten trusts make a combine. “Ten combines make a merger. “Ten mergers make a magnate. “One magnate makes the money.” —Baltimore American.

Americans Good Spenders.

Yerkes is credited with spending $20,000 a year on gowns purchased there, and Mrs. Mackay sometimes orders SIO,OOO or $15,000 worth at a time. Among male customers the best are said to be Morgan, Carnegie, Schwab and Vanderbilt.

Has Never Happened.

“Does hanging prevent murder Y* •eked a friend of Deputy Attorney General Job E. Hedges the other day. “I think it does,” replied Mr. Hedges. “I never heard of a man committing murder after he waa hanged.”—New York Times.

It Was Poor French.

When the Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis was a seminary student, it ia said that he prided himself on being more proficient in modern languages than his fellows. When it camenis turn to say grace in the “messroom,” he persisted in saying it in French until he was cut short bv the gruff remonstrance of a wild western theologue—“Oh, here, Hillis, cut that.” “I suppose you object to what you don’t understand,” retorted Ilillis. “It ain’t that,” replied the other, “eo much as that I don’t believe the Lord himself knows what you aro laying.”—New York Timea.

Jellied Bouillon.

If bouillon ia not made a first course, it may be served jellied and with almonds as a salad course. It ia particularly pretty when served in individual molds. The jelly ia easily made from extract of beef, well seasoned, diluted with hot water and made into a delicate jelly with dissolved gelatin. A little is put in the bottom of the molds, and the almonds, blanched and cut into strips, are arranged in a pattern in the jelly before the molds are filled. When ready to serve, turn out on a bed of lettuce hearts and send around with the course a stiff mayonnaise. Ho Won. Cholly (proudly)—By Jove, I’m quite a professor of swimming, don’t you know.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.

How a Uttle Dutch Boy Became a Groat Physician. . Among the lives of eminent persons recorded by D*. Johnson is that of Herman Boerhaava, a very celebrated Dutch physician. From his early childhood young Boerhaave was extremely fond of learning, and very soon his thoughts turned to the study of medicine. When, he was little more than eleven years old, he was afflicted with a painful disease in his left thigh, and none of the surgeons or physicians could do him any good. This strange boy, by constant experiment and careful study of bis own case, succeeded in curing himself. He was most persevering and successful in his studies, gaining many prizes, and when he became a professor he did a great deal for the cause of learning, especially of medical science. Though a strong man, he had many illneseee, and thus he learned to feel for his patients. Dr. Boerliaave used to tell his friends that when he lay whole days and nights without sl(«p and in great pain nothing gave him so much relief tvs thinking about his studies and r open ting from memory the many things which bo had road and learned. fie was always patient under suffering, and the more he had to boar the more ho tried to ease the pains of others. —C.

Indian Prayer Btiolcs. Those acquainted with Indian customs know of the prominence that feathers hold in the religious and social ceremonies of the red men. Particularly among the Navajos and Pueblos are these plume emblems believed to have the utmost efficacy for good or bad. All about any Pueblo town may be seen carefully whittled sticks, each with a tuft of downy feathers, generally white ones, bound at the top of it. They are prayer sticks and are quite as curious as the prayer wheels of Burma and the paper prayers of the Chinese. The feathers, stick and manner of tying the feathers vary according to the nature of the prayer. The Indian who wishes to ask a favor of the “Trues” prepares his feather prayer with great secrecy. Then, taking it to a proper spot, he prays to those above and, planting his stick, leaves it to continue his petition. Hobson’s Chotoe. Burn a cork one end and keep it clean the other.

BILL EDSON LOCATED

Man Who Waa Hunted by a Vincennes Mob la in an Illinois Prison. MULTIPIIED USE OF IHE THOSE Biff Batch of Vote Sellers Indicted——Yonth Who Is a Chapter of Accidents. Washington, Ind., Dec. 10.—“ Bill” Edson, who escaped from Jail here last July, and who had a narrow escape from a Vincennes mob, has, it is thought, been located by the police of Vincennes. He is said to be serving a terra In southern Illinois penitentiary on the charge of larceny. At Vincennes Edson was charged with assaulting a 4-year-old girl. Police Superintendent Dunn, of Vincennes, has word from the warden of tbe Illinois prison that a man thought to be Edson was sent there in October, under the name of Drake. With the warden's letters was a photograph, which was a good picture of Edson, except that the man had no mustache. Glveu Away by a Ji«gro Convict, tt is said that the man’s real name became known through a negro convict, who recognized Edson and called him by name. It Is also said that Edson became alarmed, and told tbe negro to keep quiet, but the convict told the prison officers that the man who said Ills name was Drake is really Edson. The crime for which Edson is wanted in Indiana occurred June 1. For three days a mob was about the Jail at Vincennes, but lacked a leader, and Edson was brought here. Since he escaped from the Washington Jail nothing has been heard of him. Hm No Doubt of HD Identity. Indianapolis, Dec. 10. Superintendent Dunn, of Vincennes, said over the telephone to The News: “There is no doubt but that the man In the Illinois prison at Chester Is ‘Bill’ Edson. Ido not intend to go after him, as he will have to serve out his time there. I do not know how long he will have to serve. The ease against Edson has been sent to Washington on change of venue, and when his term in the penitentiary Is over he will be taken to Washington. NEW I’BE FOR THE TELEPHONE Man Arrested, Pleads Guilty und la Fined and the Fine Paid Through the Wive. Washington. Ind.. Dec. 10.—Marshal Daniel Chambers, of Slnon, a small town In the north part of the county, has found new use for the telephone. He had a warrant for the j arrest of John Ketehem, a farmer, and i was about to go to tbe farmer’s home, seven miles away, when Ketehem callI ed the marshal by telephone and said: j “Say, Mr. Chambers, have you got a J warrant for me?” j “Yes, sir,” replied the officer. “I have one charging you with Intoxication.” j “Read it,” replied Ketehem. The officer did so and then 6aid: “You may : consider yourself under arrest, and I hereby release you on your own recog- \ nlzanee.” “AH right," replied Ketehem; “now get the the ’squire, as I want to plead guilty to that charge.” The officer called ’Squire Hastings and Ketehem pleaded guilty and the Justice's fines ; and costs amounted to $10.50. Ketch- | em then called for a merchant in the little town and had him pay the j amount of the bill. The Justice wrote “paid" across the book and the case was over.

COST OF OCEAN SPEEDING.

Much has been said of late regarding the speed of the German Atlantic greyhounds. Not enough, perhaps, has been said regarding the coat of this speed. The latest creation of the North German Lloyd, Kaiser Wilhelm 11., is designed to do twenty-four knots an hour at an expenditure of 40,000 indicated horsepower. Our White Star liner Cedric, the largest ship in the world, will go seventeen knots with 14,000 horsepower. But, says the Shipping World, the Kaiser Wilhelm will bum 750 tons of coal per day, which is 190 per cent more than the Cedric, and she will .need 256 more hands to work her. Curiously enough, of her crew of 600 only for-ty-five will be ordinary sailors, the remainder being mechanics of various orders. —London Telegraph.

Carnegie’s London Palace.

Andrew Carnegie is to become one of the nabobs of Park lane, the most fashionable and high priced street in London, lie has purchased from the young Duke of Westminster a plot of ground in South street, leading into Park lane, just beyond the handsome house of J. P. Morgan, Jr. It is said the house will be as much like Mr. Carnegie’s great mansion in Fifth avenue, in New York, ms it is possible for a London house to he and that the cost will-be something like $5,000,000. Mr. Carnegie will have for Kis immediate neighbors Lord Brassey, the dowager Countess of Itosslyn, Lady Henry Somerset, Alfred Beit, the richest man in England, and Mr. Eckstein and J. B. Pobinson, two other South African millionaires.

Utilizing a Turtle.

Tradition says that the queen of Sheba asked Solomon to thread an intricately pierced stone and that he did so by means of a hair tied to a living worm. A long sewer in an Ohio factory reoently became clogged, and a son of Solomon came to the rescue. Tying a long ball of twine to the shell of a mud turtle, he put the animal into the entrance of the sewer and turned on a stream of water. The turtlelburrowed his way through the refuse, was “watered on” at each manhole and emerged victorious at the outlet. A rope attached to the twine, a swab and strong arms accomplished the rest swiftly and economically.

Ballooning For Consumption.

Ballooning is now receiving attention as a possible remedy for pulmonary affections. The conditions are not the same as those of mountaineering, the change of altitude being more rapid and muscular fatigue being absent. In the trips of the French Society of Physiology Dr. Ilenocque proposes to regard the atmosphere as divided into three zones. Up to about three miles the surrounding air supplies all the oxygen needed, but ascents beyond five miles are held to require a closed car, as was first suggested in 1871, or an aerial diving suit.

How to Get Into Touch With Nature.

M. Maeterlinck has discovered that the only way to get into touch with nature is to travel at full speed in a motor car, for by this means only do you get into “intimate relations with rivers, fields and trees.” One can imagine M. Maeterlinck as the contact with the tree trunk or brook became imminent repeating the old exclamation of the falling steeplejack. Only M. Maeterlinck would say, “Now for the intimate relation.” It is a prettier phrase than “the blooming bump.”—London Globe.

Annexing by Assimilation.

More than a hundred thousand Americans have emigrated to Canada within a year. At this rate there will soon be no trouble about tho inevitable annexation of the Dominion. Americans will be in the majority and will come into the Union as a matter of course, as chickens come home to roost. Canada now buys from us $119,000,000 worth of goods annually, three times as much as she imports from what is facetiously called “the mother country.” —Town Topics.

Strong on Trusts.

“What do you think of these ’ere trusts ?” asked Farmer Bootjack. “All wrong—tur’blo things,” refilied Farmer Sweetflag. “Gov’ment icdn’t ortcr allow them to exist. By tho way,” he added, with a chuckle, “I guess tliet milk association of our’n lies got them pesky milk dealers right where wo want ’em now. They’ll hev to chine down with our price for the milk or else quit scllin’.”—Syracuse Herald.

Unappreciated Genius.

A young German painter, resident in New York, ‘VhOse remarkable talent finds no sufficient outlet under German conditions,” advertises for the support of an American woman of wealth who will adopt him as a son and find her reward in his gratitude and in the spectacle of his unfolding genius.

Washington, Dec. 10.—The arrest* of the German and British subjects In Caracas yesterday are believed here tobe in the nature of a retaliation on tbe part of Fresident Castro for the ultimatum which has been sent to Venezuela. Incidentally such action by Venezuela will, it is believed, involve this government, as the German an<l British representatives in Venezuela before leaving Caracas requested United States Minister Bowen to take charge of the interests of their countries to. Venezuela. Arrests Maks the Matter Worse. It was said at the state department yesterday that this request would be granted, and the probability is that Bowen already has taken steps to wand that end. Considerable surprise is expressed here over the arrests, as tbe result will be to add to the serious coo plications already existing. Owing to the late hour at which tbe Caracas bulletin was received It was impossible to ascertain whether any information had been received by the state department from Bowen regarding the armrests. Senor I’ulido, the Venezuelan charge d’affaires, was also Inacceaat ble. PRESIDENT OABTHO INTERVIEWED He Say* John Hull'* Action I* Without J ustiflcation.

In reply to questions the president of Venezuela salA: “The Venezuelan government has not received any ultimatum, property speaking, but rather simultaneous requests from Great Britain and Get* many. Tbe claims Great Britain asks this government to settle are* small, and up to the present time we have not been aware of them. Never having been presented Venezuela has consequeutly never refused to settle them. Great Britain’s action therefore Is without Justification. “The Venezuelan government cannot decide on foreign claims before tbe resolution lias been entirely crushed. Atpresent the only aim of the government is the re-establishment of public order, and other questions must necessarily be subservient to this object. Nevertheless, to prove Venezuela’s desire to settle all pending claims in ff conformable manner, tbe government Issued a decree during the last session of congress, dated Nov. 28, creating a committee to which all pending claims should be referred. “No claims have been presented to this committee and no claims have been rejected. There has been no denial of Justice; why, then, should foreign chancelorles intervene, thereby Ignoring our laws and endeavoring to violate our nutlonal sovereignty? We cannot understand this action." "What do you Intend to do in view j of the present attitude of the powers Y” ! vn* asked. “Enforce our rights," replied Preslj dent Castro, “and explain to the world that Venezuela has laws and prove that we never have denied our engagements.".
