Inorclate Affinst Texa Fever. Tlie Missouri State Agricultural station at Columbia has recently perfected a process of inoculation against tbe dreaded Texas fever which it is Volleyed will open a large and profitable market to the stockmen of Missouri and other northern states. Hitherto 0 to SO per cent of all northern attle sent to the Texas fever districts f the south have almost immediately succumbed to the dreaded disease. Out of con than 400 native cattle which har been shipped from the experimental station kss than S per cent kaT3 been lost from any cause. The taltld to be treated are inoculated with blood from r.n animal which has bettooo immune to the fever. For this purpose steers from Texas are employed. During tne coming Vinter it is expected that more than 1,000 head will be treated at this station and skipped to large Texas ranches.

I VVgANDY CATHARTIC;

A POSER FOR MARKSMEN.

The Krrcntric Flisht of the Woodcock .M.iLps Him Almost Impossible to Hit. The peculiar habit of the woodcock and his corkscrew flight make him probably me most difficult of winged marks. In the daytime he remains always in thickets, copses or cane-brakes. He must have ground upon which to .c!eep and and in winch to do his occasional daylight boring, and moist ground generally means always dense undergrowth. Indeed, some of the places most favored by the woodcock are so thickly overgrown that a rabl .t finds difficulty in getting through. In such places the hunter send in his cocker spaniel, if he has one, knowing that the dog will Hush the bird with his shrill, constant barking, and trusting to luck to get a shot as the woodcock clears the tops of the trees or ear.es. Generally, however, a man and a pointer may work their way through almost anything that grows in shape of woods and entangling vines, and it must be admitted that the ditucuities of it lend to the sport a peculiar fascination that does not pertain to any other form of American shooting. It is characteristic of the woodcock that he will not fly far horizontally when disturbed. Ho does not see well, even in the shadow of the oaks and c yprrsses, and he fears that if he lets himself out in a straight line he will run into something. At night he sees as well as an owl. His flight, consequently, when he rises before the heavy tread of the pointer's owner, or before the yelp of the spaniel, is confined to a spiral shoot straight upward ard a drop to earth almost as perpendicular. If not strack he will hit the ground probably not more than fifteen y cards from where he left it. In cane or other kinds of swamp he might as well be a hundred yards away, so far as any chance of shooting him Is concerned. The flight is nothing like so fast as the buzzing dart of the quail cr the wide-swinging zigzag of the jacksnipe, but it is highly eccentric. JaIs!n Machine. For registering the results cf a foot race the human eye and voice seem sometimes painfully inadequate. Close contests of this kind will doubtless end more pleasantly when the new "judging machine," described by the Golden Penny, comes Into general i:se. The machine, which wai invented by an Australian, is des:gned to be placed at the finish line, and consists of a light metal frame partitioned into two or more divisions, each about four feet wide. On the top of the frame stands a small cabinet containing numbered divisions corresponding to the numbers of the tracks. The instant the first man passes through his division a shutter falls, disclosing his track number. The other numbers are immediately locked, except when the machine is set for final heats. In this case a small cylinder is attached to the machine, and a hammer had strikes a mark on the revolving cylinder ts the men finish. Thus the exact positions of all the competitors can be told to a nicety. The same inventor has originated an automatic judging machine for bieyel races. It consists of fine, light met il strips placed in a small trench abo it two inches wide, which is sunk across the track at the finish. During the last lap these strips, which are coated with enamel, are placed in position by means of a lever, and the first wheel to cross receives five marks. In crossing, however, it displaces one of the strips, and the next wheel, therefore, only receives four marks, the third three, and so on. Small Coin in Great DemamL There has been no relaxation of the demand for fractional silver, and the situation, according to treasury officials, is likely to get worse, rather than better. All the uncurrent and defaced coins have now been coined up, and the treasury is at the end of ita resources. When Secretary Gage took hold in March. 1S17, he had $16,000.000 in subsidiary coin. That sum has steadily declined, until now there is less than $3.0)0,000 in the possession of the treasury, and this is scattered over the country. The demand for imall coins continues from all sections, and there has been found no authority of law to purchase bullion to supply the demand. The secretary last year suggested to congress that he be given authority to use the seignicraue fur subsidiary coiuage, but the only response was to direct the coinage of all this seigniorage into silver dollars, 'ihero will be a scarcity of small change until congress ac s. Hr !: 1 Clmrm. A Sicdcli farmer, says Ixmdon Aniwers, wiio was a ba hc-Ior and a littler past his prim, finding his comforts in life rather meager on account of his indigent ein urnstar.c es, decided that the be-;t thing he could do was to marry a certain middle-aged neighbor of Iiis who did not lack for money. He vcnt, wooed and won. and his estate soon took on an air of greater prosperity. Ore of the first purchases he made with his wife's money was a horse. When he brought it home he rolled his wife cut to see it. After admiring the animal she said: "Well, Sandy, if it ha Ina been for my siller it wadna hae been here." "Jenny," replied .Sandy, "if it h idna been for yer siller, ye wadna hae been here yer-i:lu-j:t-kt in n llxnvoiii. When two handsome, smooth-faced, smiling young bluejackets jumped into a hansom for a little spin, they settled back into tho cushions with evident enjoj me rit of sitting thus in the stern sheets Instead of laboring at the oar. The cabman let down t.'io windows on both hddes to give the boys plenty of air. Then he mounted to hh seat, and away they went, rounding the first corner they cr mo to c!o:-e-hauled on the starboard tack, and snilin? down Uroadway at forty knots an hour. An Overworked AVnri:iu.

QUALITY AND NEWS.

FAME AND EXCELLENCE ARE DETERMINING FACTORS IN SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPMENT. One of the Important Functions of Illgu-Clas Newspapers. In presenting interesting phases ot scientific and economic problems, high-class newspapers frequently give Information of as great value in their advertising columns as In those devoted to the publication cf the principal events of the day; and when the fame of a product is extended beyond its natural limits into foreign lands, and a large demand created throughout Great Britain and her colonies and the principal seaports and cities of Europe, Asia and Africa, it becomes a pleasant duty to note the fact and to tell of the points of excellence on which so great a success is based. We refer to the now worldfamed laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, the product of the California Fis Syrup Company. The merits, of thi3 well-known excellent laxative were first made known to the world through the medical journals and newspapers of the United States; and is one of the distinct achievements of the press. It is now well known that Syrup of Figs Is an ethical proprietory remedy, approved by the most eminent physicians everywhere, because it is simple and effective, yet pleasant to the taste and acceptable to the system, and not only promp: in its beneficial effects, but also wholly free from any unpleasant after-effects. It is frequently referred to as the remedy of the healthy, because it is used by people who enjoy good health and who live well and feel well and are well informed on all subjects generally, including laxatives. In order to get its beneficial effects, it is necessary to get the genuine Syrup of Figs, which is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only. THE SUMMER'S OUTING. A Traveler Tells About the Iteantles of h Trip to the Coast. During these long evenings of fall and winter, many a plan will be laid for the bright warm days of summer, coming bye and bye, when Nature again assumes her lighter garments and decks herself in green of field and flame of flower, appropriate dressing for her milder mood. Flans made in advance are most apt to be realized and be as fruitful of results as expectancy painted them. If I were to place beiore the readers of this paper an ideal outii g for the summer, I would direct their attention to the scenic division of the country, where the eye may be pleased, the mind broadened by contract with Nature, and where health giving winds blow away the miasm! from dulling minds as well as aching bones. A tour of the West is one of the most cherished hopes of the rich traveler and equally is the more humble, but provident clerk, or artisan entitled to enjoy the awakening of the senses caused by revelations of countries new to him. "The Overland Route" comprises the scenic ami historic plains and mountains lying between the Mississippi River and Western Slope. Great minds have dwelt upon the romances of the old trails and wrought into story and song the incidents of travel, dangerous and, in the early days, not free from intense suffering. Greater minds have spanned the trackless waste with rails of steel and placed upon them puffing leviathams from the shops, and attached to these magnificent palace cars and all the appurtenances of comfort while traveling. The "Overland Route" is the name adopted by the Union Pacific Eytem which crosses the now fertile, once arid plains cf Kansas and Colorado, invades the narrowing canons, deep and forbidding, but wonderfully attractive, as danger ever is, passes under frowning cliffs and around gigantic promotories, bald and reaching toward the skies, not unlike sentinels, which protect the secret of tho mine until men's necessities make the uncovering useful for the people. There Is no grander scenery than that which the Union Pacific traverses between Denver and the surrounding points, and in its Westward course, through Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. The Colorado parks are themselves a revelation to tbe uninitiated and Salt Lake and its environs afford study and entertainment and pleasure for bright minds. "The Coast" are words which have an indefinite meaning to those who have never visited the Western outpost of our prosperity and advancing civilization, but it should be seen and known, and now, while there is time to study about the country, is the time to lay your plans. No more enjoyable outing can be than that found in all the standard piile books describing the Union Pacific trip to the Pacific coast. To Los Aurelen and Southern California Every Friday night, at 10:35 p. m., a through Tourist Car for Ixs Angeles I and Southern California, leaves the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Union Passenger Station, Chicago, via Omaha, Colorado Springs and Salt Lake City, for all points in Colorado, Utah, Nevada and California. In addition to the regular Pullman porter, each car Is accompanied by an intelligent, competent and courteous "courier," who will attend to the wants of passengers en route. This is an entirely new feature of tourist car service, and will be appreciated by families or by ladies traveling alone. Particular attention is paid to the care of children, who usually get weary on a long journey. These tourist cars are sleeping cars supplied with all the accessories necessary to make the journey comfortable and pleasant, and the berth rate (each berth will accommodate two persons) is only $G.OO from Chicago to California.

A QUICKSILVER FOUNTAIN. Household Flatirom Float Lightly on Its Sarface. Probably the most ingenious, not to say expensive, fountain ever devised is to be seen in operation daily in the Queensland section of the Greater Britain exhibition, Earl's court. It has taken a clever young engineer, Charles Bright, F. R. S. E., over three months to overcome the difficulties of producing anything like an appreciable effect on the public eye. Quicksilver or mercury is a very difficult mineral to deal with. It is tremendously heavy, being at least four times heavier than water, has a peculiar quality cf disappearing anywhere and everywhere on the slightest provocation, and is so expensive that few can indulge in so interesting a luxury as a quicksilver cascade. The metal in the Earl's court fountain falls from an upper bowl, four feet in diameter, to a basin seven feet below. Both of these basins, as well as the ornamental supporting pillar, -are constructed of iron, painted dull black to heighten the effect. Owing to the great cost of the mercury U's. 6d a pound) one of the main problems was to devise the apparatus so as to get rid of any possibility of waste. Hence, anything like Niagara falls of mercury was out of the question. The top bowl is, in fact, not a bowl at all, but a table, with sixty-four small channels radiating frcin the center to the outward edge. From the center the quicksilver is thus distributed evenly over the edge, and drops in silvery streaks into the basin below, where, curious to relate, two household llatirons iloat about as airly as if they were ducks on a millpond a striking

object lesson, proving the wonderful density of the liquid. From the lower bowl there is a drain-pipe, eighty feet long and one inch in diameter, which conveys the mercury to a tank at a tlightly lower level, forming the sup ply to an elevator apparatus for pro viding the necessary "head" of rcer cury. The form of elevator adopted consists of a number of small, thickly set steel buckets freely suspended at intervals on an endless bicycle chain, which is conveyed through the storage tank. As each bucket dips into the latter, a tilting device insures it pick ing up all the mercury which it will conveniently hold. The buckets are then carried upward to a reservoir tank some fourteen feet above, where each in turn, by means of a similar tilting arrangement, is emptied. Prom this upper tank the mercury is con ducted by a pipe 10G feet in length to the upper basin of the fountain.London Mail. STORIES OF THE CLERGY. A Baptist minister fishing near Cape Cod catches a strange fish, and asl the skipper: "What manner of ILh is this, my good man? It has a cuiius appearance." "Yaas. Only been 'round here this year." "What do yia call it?" "We calls 'em Baptists." "Why so? Cause they spile sa quick arter they come out of the water." Nacomb Bystander. The Home Magazine recalls a good story which Dr. Newman Hall used to tell on the lecture platform. An illit erate negro preacher said to his congregation: "My brethren, when de fust man, Adam, was made, he was made ob wet clay, and set up agin de palings to dry." "Do you say," said one of the congregation, "dat Adam was made oh wet clay?" "Yes, sar, I do." "Who made the palings?" "Sit down, sar," said the preacher, sternly; "such questions as dat would upset any system of theology." "How is the world using you. pas tor?" was asked of a happy itinerate Methodist preacher in Georgia. "Firstclass, sir, first-class." "Nothing to complain of, eh?" "Nothing at all sir nothing at all. The festival for the benefit of the new organ came out only $20 in debt; the fair for the new light ning-rod was $20 behind, and the watermelon party for the new bell was $20 short, but the parsonage didn't burn down until six weeks after the pound party praise the Lord." Tli Mauyar Moon. There is no people in the world which has not yet achieved its inde pendence that loves liberty and na tionalism more intensely than the Magyars of Hungniy. In his "ThroneMakers," William Roscoe Thayer dwells upon the spirit which is universal among them. Like any Magyar patriot, Kossuth could count on one of the most powerful of allies the race hatred between his countrymen and the Austrians. In the Magyar language the very word "German" signified vile, base, despicable. There was a Magyar proverb to the effect that "German is the only language God does not understand." The proprietor cf a Hungarian theater once produced what he considered a fine piece of scenery, in which was represented a full moon with a round, fat, clean-shaven face?. When It rose, the audience hissed and shouted: "Down with the German moon!" The manager took the hint. Next night there rose a swarthy-cheek .ed, black-mustached orb. Hurrahs burst from every mouth, and all cried: "Long live our true Magyar moon!" A Story of Anthony Hope. When Mr. Anthony Hope Hawkins visited America in 1&07 he had to go through much interviewing. On one occasion about twenty reporters gathered around him in his manager's office near Union Square, in Now York. The novelist, shy, reticent ami almost bashful, sat at the cenlcr table, while tlv. newsmen stood around him, and the spokesman asked him all manner of questions, first of all, of course, how he liKed America. As Mr. Hawkins had only Ijeen in America four brief hours, he was unable to express any opinion of value upon the subject. Then came in quick succession inquiries as to other authors and their relative merits. Probably the question which was th? hardest to answer was an important one, propounded by a self-authorized Interrogator. It was: "Mr. Hawkins, what in your opinion is your greatest work?" "It never has been written, sir," was the reply of the Englishman. And then deep silence fell upou tha group. M. A. P.

"The Great Kaby McVIcker's theater in Chicago is all too small to hold the crowds that are flocking to see "The Great Ruby." This wonderful play was produced originally at the Drury Lane theater in London where it scored an enormous hit. It was brought to America and presented by Augustin Daly at Daly's theater last season with all the original London scenery, properties, furnitures and mechanical effects. For twenty-five weeks it crowded Daly's theater at $2 a seat and now Mr. Litt brings the same production intact from Daly's theater and offers it to McVicker's theater patrons at $1. It is the biggest show ever seen in Chicago and has scored a most terrific hit. The management of McVicker's offers to assist parties organizing to go to Chicago to see "The Great Ruby" in securing special reduced railroad rates.
