CLEVER MARKSMEN.
What Some Hunters Can Do with
Their Rifles.
Clifton (Pa.) Correspondent Sere York Tribune.
A stranger doesn’t have to remain in this
h inting region very long before the natives
tell him some interesting stories about
shooting. Over in the Beech Woods live
two hardy brothers who may be called
James and Charles. Both are capital
hunters and marksmen, but Charles, the
younger, occasionally loses his nerve when
he sees a deer bounding along a runway,
The consequence is that he often misses a
fine bit of game, where if he had kept con
trol of himself and mastered the “buck
fever” he would have brought the deer to
its knees and secured it. James never gets
excited on a hunt, and the fact that Charles
frequently does has been a source of great
annoyance to his older brother, who has
tried in various ways to cure
Charles of his nervousness when game
comes in sight. Early in December
James told Charles that he was
going to give him a chance to redeem him
self in the woods. So they went down
into the edge of Carbon county after deer,
Charles promising to brace up and not get
all of a tremble if he should happen to get
a shot at a flue buck or doe. 'When they
reached the hunting grounds James gave
Charles hs Winchester rifle, placed him on
a runway close to a creek, and strode to
the top of the mountain to scale up the
deer. Inside of two hours a fat doe tore
down the mountain side and struck into
the creek, within a few yards of where
Charles was waiting for a shut. He bi :zcd
away at her and broke her down.and then he
dashed into the stream, cut the doe’s throat,
ana hauled her to the shore. It required
some tugging, for there were many limbs
and logs in the way, and the proud young
hunter sat on a log and rested. Presently
James, who had heard tho shot, came run
ning down the hill to see what luck Charles
had had.
“I’ve got her this time, as sure as you
live!’” Charles sang out.
“I see you have,” said James, “but where’s
the gun?”
“It stands there by the stump,” Charles
said.
“No, it don’t. It ain’t anywhere in
sight!” Janies yelled.
Ar.d it wasn’t anywhere in sight. It was in
the bottom of the stream, whore Charles in
his excitement had unconsciously thrown it
when he rushed in after the wounded doe.
Tho major and the captaiu have long
been rivals with the i ifle in this neighbor
hood. One day in the fall they shot at
pigeons for a can of gunpowder. The first
one that failed to knock a pigeon’s head off
was to pay for the powder, and at it thev
went. They shot nine times apiece without
a miss, but the major slipped up on the
tenth bird, and the captaiu shot his teath
pigeon’s head off and won tho powder.
Before the week ended tae major and the
captain tried their marksmanship on a
natural white round spot in a distant beech
tree. The captain put a bullet almost in t'.e
center of the spot, aud then the major
banged away. When they tramped over
and looked at the white spot there was only
one bullet hole in it, and the captain yelled:
“You missed the tree altogether, major.
I didn’t think you’d do that.”
“Guess I didn’t miss the tree, cap. Guess
my bullet went in the same hole yourß did,”
said themaji r.
“Bet you $lO you didn’t hit the tree at all,
major ]” the captain yelled.
“I’ll cover that bet, Cap,” said the major,
and the money was put up at once. Then
one of the spectators ran to the house for
an axe, and when he returned a chip eight
inches thick was quickly choppea out of
the tree aud split in two on a line with
the bullet hole. There lay the two bullets
as suugiy as a pair of kittens on a carpet,
and the major danced a jig on top of a big
stump, he felt so good over beating the
captaiu.
One summer the major had a fine piece
of corn. The hogs belonging to one of his
neighbors kept breaking into the field and
raising havoc with the corn, and the major
finally sent one of his sons down to the
owner of the hogs with the request that he
should keep his destructive creatures on his
own premises in the future.
“My hogs ain’t beou in your cornfield
once,” the farmer declared to the boy, and
the declaration was delivered to the major.
“All right,” said the major, “the next
time his hogs gee in my corn I’ll mark ’em
so that he’ll know ’em as long as they live.”
On tho following day the hogs broke into
the cornfield again, and the major sallied
forth with his rifle and put bullet holes
through the ears of eight of them. In a
day or so the boy went down to the farmer’s
place and found that the farmer had his
hog’s ears plastered with tar. After that
he kept his hogs at home.
Bhe Got What She Wanted.
A curious and very long letter received
by the department of agriculture from a
woman in South Carolina, says the New
York Tribune , contained a requ' st for gar
den seeds and silk-worm eggs. The request,
however, did not appear until several pages
had been given to her family history. In
substance, it was this; She had an only
child, a boy 4 years of age. She had but
one object in life, but one thing to live for.
To raise this boy, educate and establish him,
was her aim, and would make her only hap
piness in this world. Her plans for the
b< y’a training wore set forth in detail in
her letter; his education step by step
was explained, up to entering college
—the college named, his whole course
in college followed with much exactness,
and leaving college his profession, and’
finally his disposition in the practice of his
profession. All this covered several cages
and it was not without interest, though the
reading did occupy a good deal of govern
ment timo. But with such a mother the
boy’s future looked promising, in spite of
possible failure of silkworm crops and un
prosperous vegetable gardens. It was a
growing plan of work, a labor of love to
he carried on for twenty years, but its very
start and foundation rested upon silkworms
and gard?n seeds. Suddenly the tone
of the letter chaneed. In a few
words the truth was told. Before
she could realize even the beginning of
her foudost dream, the boy was taken from
her—had died. Her object in life was now
gone, and though she had so little to live
for, still she needed the silkworm eggs and
garden seeds more than ever. Though she
could not make money to bring up and edu
cate her boy, she could and would build
him a monument. This she should set about
at once, and she urged the secretary of ag
riculture to send silkworm’s eggs and gar
den sr-eds without delay, that she might go
into the business of raising vegetables and
growing silkworms m order to make money
to build the monument.
Of course the department of agriculture
forwarded the capital at once.

WOOD AS FOOD.
Chemistry Hopes to Evolve o, Break
fast from Timber.
From the Lancet.
Probably no modern science presents a
wider field for speculation than that of
chemistry, and more especially, perhaps,
that branch of the science which treats of
organic compounds. Since the day when
Wohler overthrew forever the notion that
organic substances were exclusively the
products of the otie-ation of a so-called
vital force by his discovery of the synthe
sis of urea, a great number of bodies, hith
erto obtained only in nature’s laboratory,
have successfully been built up, as the result
of a careful and most minute study of their
exact nature.
The discovery of the preparation of sub
stances by artifice, more particularly the
dyes, has ns a matter of course, influenced
very considerably home and foreign indus
tries. W hat shall be said, then, when chem
istry promises to solve hard problems of
political and social economy? In an ai
dress delivered at Heidelberg, by no less
eminent an authority than Victor Meyer, it
is announced ‘ ‘that we may reasonably hone
that chemistry will teach us to ihake the
fiber of wood tho source of human food.
What an enormous stock of food then, will
be found, if this t ecomes possible, in the
wood of our forests, or even in grass and
straw. The fibre of wood consists essen
tially of cellulin, C6H1005. Can this be
made to change mto starch? Starch has
exactly the s tme percentage composition,
but, as every one knows, it differs very
much in its properties, aud the
nature of its moieculo is probably much
more complox. Cellulin is of little or no
dietetic value, aud it is not altered, like
starch, m boiling water. It really gives
glucose when treated with strong sulphuric
acid, as is easily shown when cotton-wool,
which Is practically pure colluliu, is merely
immersed in it. .Starch gives the sane
product when boiled with weak acid. The
author further quotes the researches of
Hellriegel, which go to show beyond dispute
that certain plants transform atmospheric
nitrogen into albumen, and that this process
can be improved by suitable treatment.
The production, therefore, of starch from
cellulin, together with the enforced increase
of albumen in plants would, he adds, in
reality signify the abolition of the bread
question. It must be borne in mind, how
ever, that theory, fascinating and promising
though it may be, is not always capable of
being followed up by a practical result.
RAIL AND CROSBTIB.
Peter Donelan, Jr., will leave to-night
for St. Augustine to drum up business for
the De Soto.
General Passenger Agent E. T. Charlton
of the Central left last woek for Chicago,
where he will join the western excursion
party to Mexico.
General Manager Gabbett of the Central
railroad is in Montgomery, aud tho position
of superintendent of the main stem will not
be filled until he returns.
The Central railroad is rapidly becoming
what it used to bo, and wliat every strong
road becomes when its own men are pro
moted to official positions.
The Central railroad passenger shed has
been provided with two framed copies of
the passenger rates, state and interstate,
made by the Georgia commission, and also
a circular of the Georgia ruilroaa commis
sion.
It is understood that R. E. Mims, auditor
of receipts of the Central railroad, has writ
ten his resignation, to go into effect April 1.
Mr. Mims was formerly paymaster, and has
beou auditor over a year. He is now in
Atlanta, and it is understood that his resig
nation is with a view to going into business
there.
General Yard Master S. A. Borders was
appointed yesterday assistant trainmaster
of the Central, to succeed James H. Storey,
who has been appointed trainmaster. Mr.
Borders is well identified with the Central,
and is acknowledged as one of the most
worthy employes. He will occupy the of
fice now occupied by Mr. Storey, and Mr.
Storey will move to Macon next week,
where his headquarters will be. The ap
pointment of Mr. Borders’ successor will be
made by Agent Morgan.
St orage batteries are successfully used for
running street cars between the villages of
Beverly and Danvers ip Massachusetts. A
correspondent in describing the working
operation of this lino, 3 % miles long, says
that the track is laid over a succession of
steep hills, and the service performed would
require four horses; but the cars are drawn
without difficulty, trips being made every
twenty-five minutes. The cost of the bat
tery service is much less than the cost of
horse-power. The correspondent says: The
car started on with an almost
imperceptible motion by the driver
turning the crank of the motor about
one quarter of the way round the disk. In
a moment he turned it a little further, and
we were going at a rapid rate; but on his
adjusting it to the farthest position we sped
faster than I have ever before ridden, ex
cepting on a steam railroad. It wasthrill
ingly delightful, especially as there was not
a particle of a jar or jolt perceptible in the
entire journey. When a stop or a start
was made it was done with wonderful ease
and quiet, and there was no noise or buzz
ing, as on the detestable trolley roads, at
anyjtime. The passengers give notice of
their wish to stop by pressing electric but
tons placed betweeu each pair of windows,
and the conductor signals the motor man
by a large electric bell.
The Engineering News publishes an in
teres ing map of the proposed lines of rail
way to be under construction in the United
States before January, 1891. The work of
railway extension during the coming sea
son promises mere activity than in any
season since 1887. The News' list of
the various enterprises shows 5,038 miles of
railway partially completed or in process of
construction, 7,041 miles surveyed or under
survey, and 2,831 miles of lines not yet sur
veyed, but whose projectors are pushing
them with such energy that the prospects
seem fair for the beginning of actual work
befbre the close of the year. This makes a
total of 14,910 miles of lines in the United
States which have a pro pect of being com
pleted or placed under construction before
the close of the year. The total for Canada
is: Construction, 914 miles; surveys, 438
miles; projected, 766 miles; total, 2,118
miles. In the totals of prospective mileage for
separate states (including all the classes of
work—construction, surveys and projects)
Pennsylvania and Georgia stand at the head
with over 900 miles. New York, Ohio, North
Carolina and Tennessee iiave betwee i 790
and 800 miles upon our map; and Texas,
Alabama and Washington between 600 and
700 miles. Virginia and West Virginia
show each over 500 mil is of prospective
lines, of which a largo proportion are cer
tain of completion. Between 400 and 500
miles are: Maine, Florida, Missouri,
Nebraska and Wyoming; while the states
of Michigan, Indiana, South Carolina, Ken
tucky. Utah, Oregon and Montana show
each over 800 miles. The following table
gives a summary of the mileage in process
of construction and that surveyed and uuder
