What is claimed to be an important
. discovery in X-ray work was made in
New Jersey the other day. By means
of the rays, the presence or absence of
tuberculosis can be determined, it is
said. In a certain case the ordinary
examination with stethoscope and
other apparatus failed to reveal the
presence of the complaint, but under
the X-ray, the lung showed an area of
8 shadow. In its normal state the lung
is not pictufed by the ray, but when
attacked by tuberculosis the diseased
portion is shown in shadow the same
gs other impenetrable objects
Macon Telegraph: The fecundity of
- the colored race was well illustrated at
the Union depot Saturday when a
negro woman got off the Georgia train,
followed by seventeen children, the
oldest of which appeared to be not
over 19 years of age. The mother of
thia large family did not appear to be
over 35 years of age and was as strong
and healthy looking as anybody. As
the large family passed out, Gatekeeper
Holmes, jokingly asked the woman if
she had any more children. “Lord,
honeypthese am all dal’s left. I had
some mo’, but er chimly fell on'm and
killed some of ’em," replied the woman
candidly. Day before yesterday a
family of white people consisting of a
man and wile and fifteen daughters
came up on the Georgia Southern to
make their home in Bibb county. At
this fate it looks like the next census
will show great increase in Bibb’s pop
ulation.
The Governor of Georgia and his
junketing party attended a bull fight
in Mexico last Bunday It cannot be
said whether or not the Governor vio
lated any of bis own convictions with
regard to the sanctity of the Sabbath
day, but it is certain that many of his
good, church-going and God-fearing
constituents will be surprised and
shocked at the information. Bull
fighting is prohibited by law in this
country, for the reason that it is re
garded as a brutal, bloody, degrading
sport. It is looked upon as being even
worse than prise fighting, since in the
former case dumb animals are goaded
into frensy and forced to fight for their
lives, while in the latter case the hu
man brutes are under no sort of com
pulsion to bruise and battereach other.
Bull fighting (abd prise fighting, on
secular days, are regarded by the
masses of the people of this country,
and of the state of Georgia especially*
as being reprehensible; then what is
to be said of the bull fight on Sunday?

Aft Kugilsh JU/asal to Believe
In Aruertetu Jlreordo of Speed.
Tho Engineer ot ixnnlon doe* not, we
are sura, intend to i«w as a humorous
journal, but novcrtbeless it bt sometimes
Quite arousing, particularly when trying
to demonstrate to its own «.ti*fnotion and
to moke its readers believe that things
regularly done here in America are, ns a
matter of fact, "irupovaible, don’t you
*nj V its issuo ot Sept. 10 it published tho
official record of the fast run between
Philadelphia and Atlantic City, N. J.,
fop tho month of July Inst, thin record
showing tho time from start to stop to av
erage 48 minutes for the S&H jniies, tlio
figures varying slightly on different days.
Tbo table wai furnished by the Baldwin
Locomotive works nnd showed the per
formance of the train in tletnii for every
day of the month, while accompanying tt
was a profile of the road, shelving the
grades traversed.
Ono would imagine such Information
from such a source to lie entitled to accept
ance in a respectful manner, nnd. In fact,
for the time Iwlng, tho figures wore al
lowed to go unchallenged, nnd in its issue
of Oct. 33 The Engineer even published a
letter from E, K. Clark of Ix-eds testify l
ing that ho made tho trip on tho locomo
tive of the’train on n day when the dis
tance was covered in 47 minutes. In its
issue of Nov. 19, however, tho paper re
turns to tho subject in n leading editorial,
and, referring to tho official record before
published, it says: “Beyond nil question
that official record is quite fallacious. It
Is not true cither in substance or In fact
It is a record of mechanical impossibili
ties. Nevertheless wo think wo have ac
tually got tho Scientific truth in Clement
Stretton’s letter, which Will be found in
another page."
Reference to Mr. Stretton’s letter, throe
pages back, shows that It relates to a run
piado in 1893, when tho time made was
55 X minutes. There is not a scintilla of
evidence against tho record of 1897, but
because of the slower time In 1893 tho
record for the last season “Is not, true
either in substance or in foot. ”
Now tho question is, Does Tho Engineer
really believe that because a certain rate
of spted was not attained in 1898 there
fore it cannot be in 1897, and that any one
who claims it can be is mendacious, or
doos it deliberately intend to resort to
mefo pettifogging methods to deceive its
readers? We must confess that we see no
other alternative.
Nevertheless Tho Engineer is forced to
admit from Mr. Stre ton’s figures of the
run as made four years ago that Ameri
can locomotives do make faster time than
English ones.—American Machinist.
. • Objections to Football.
Our football rules, orthose to which ob
jection is specially made, are ingenious
and cunning, but they lack common sense
and intelligence. They tend more and
more to eliminate individual effort and to
depend upon combinations whose effect
shall bb irresistible. Dqt what sport is
there in being irresistible? What sport de
mands is open competition of man against
man, or, if you please, of equal numbers
against each other. Nothing could be
more stupid and objectless than the heaped
up rushes and collisions of our football
matches. Tho true gpmo is to get the ball
through tho enemy’s goal, and any rule
which tends to take the accomplishment
of that aim from individuals and give it
to masses is a rule in tho wrong direction.
The prizefighters are justified in saying
that football, as now played hero, is a
more brutal and dangerous game than
prizefighting. It is lack of intelligence in
framing rules which has made it so. A
little common sense • and independent
thought would make tho game not only
free from serious danger, but far more in
teresting both to play and to watch. But
the whole idea thus far has been to plan
such combinations as tho other side, being
taken at a disadvantage, cannot withstand.
Success becomes a more question of me
chanics, with tho human clement more
and more eliminated. In war this princi
ple is sound. But sjiorts are not war in
that sense. They arc designed not to
win a certain prize, but to find which man
or men arc tho best. A football team
drilled in devices more ingenious than
those of tho other sido wins tho game, but
the glory belongs not to tho team, but to
tho planner of tho devices. What sport or
what legitimate satisfaction is there in
that? The game might as well bo played
on tho blackboard and every onco in
awhilo a player bo crushed to death under
a steam hammer.—Collier’s Weekly.
Easy When You Know How.
A Dresden paper, tho Woidmann, which
thinks that there are kangaroos (boutcl 1
ratte) in South Africa, says the Hottentots
(Hottentoten) put them in cages (hotter)
provided with covers (lattengitter) to pro
tect them from the rain. The cages are
therefore called lattengitterwetterkotter
and tho Imprisoned kangaroo lattengitter
wetterkottorbeutolratte. One day an as
sassin (attentater) was arrested who had
killed a Hottentot woman (Hottentoten
mutter), the mother of two stupid and
stuttering children in Strattertrotol. This
woman, in the German language, is en
-111 ted Hottentoteifstrottertrottelmutter,
and her assassin takes tho name Hotten
tetenstrottermutterattentater. The mur
derer was confined in a kangaroo’s cage
(boutolra ttenlattcngitterwetterkotter),
whence a few days later he escaped, but
fortunately he was recaptured by a Hot
tentot, who presented himself at the
mayor’s office with beaming face.
“I have capturetithe beutelratte,” said
he,
“Which one?" said the mayor. “We
have several.”
“ The attentatorlattengitterwotterkottcr
beutelratte. ”
“Which attentater are you talking
about?"
“About the Hottentotenstrottcrtrottel
mutterattentater. ”
“Then why don’t you say at once the
H otton totenstrottelmuttorattentaterlat
tengitterwettcrkotterbeutelratte?”
Waterproofing For Boots.
Here are three recipes for waterproofing
boots which you will find good, the last
one being perhaps tho most suitable for
heavy outdoor work:, (1) One part of ozo
kerlt In 2 parts castor oil and 1 part lamp
black added makes an excellent prepara
tion, as the boots will take a thin polish
afterward. (2) Salad oil, 1 pint; mutton
suet, 4 ounces; white wax and spermaceti,
of each 1 ounce, melted together and ap
plied to tho boots, warmed before the fire.
(8) Melt 8 ounces of spermaceti in a ladle
and add three-quarters of an ounce of In
dia rubber cut into shavings. When dis
solved, add half a pound of tallow, 2
ounces of pure lord and 4 ounces of amber
varnish. Mix well, and while still warm
apply with a brush. It leaves a good pol
ish and is preservative as well as water
proof.—Nuggets.
CATNIP AT THE ZOO.
- ■' —-F
Tigers and Jaguar* Get Their First Tasto
of the Food. .
An armful of fresh green catnip was
plucked from the golf grounds of the Ex
moorclub at Highland park. It,was taken
to Lincoln pork and permission was asked
of Animal Keeper De Vry to try tho effects
ot the green stuff on the feline members
of his family. This herb, which does not
grow, so far as is known, in the haunts of
the cousins tq the cats, created a great sen
sation at the zoo. Perhaps the most aston
ishing incident connected with the tour of
tho cages happened just as tho visitor with
his big bundle of catnip left the office of
the keeper in the animal house. The scent
•of the plant filled the whole place, and ns
soon m it had reached the parrots’ corner
tho two gaudily attired macaws sot up a
noise that drowned thought nnd made for
tho sldq of tho cage, poking their beaks
and claws through. When the catnip was
brought near them, they became nearly
frantic. They were given some and de
voured it, stem, leaf and blossom, with an
avidity commensurate with the noise of
their voices. •
The keeper and the catnip carrier then
made for tho cage of Billy, tho African
leopard. Now, Billy, so far as is known,
had never before smelled or seen a leaf of
tho plant. Before the front of bis cage
was reached he had bounded from the shelf
whereon he lay apparently asleep and stood
exjxjctant, alert and with brightened eyes
at the bars of hipcage This African ex
otic went simply insane. The man with
the catnip purposely waited for a few min
utes before he poked any of the green
IMW and yellowish white flowers of the
plant through to the big cat.
Finally a double handful of catnip was
passed through to the floor of the den.
Never was the prey of this African dweller
in his wild state pounced upon more rap
idly or with more absolutely savage enjoy
ment. First Billy ate a mouthful of the
catnip, then he lay flat on his back and
wriggled his sinuous length through the
green mass until his black spotted, yellow
hide was permeated with the odor of the
plant from shoulders to tail tip. Then
Billy sat on a bunch of the catnip, caught
a leaf laden stem up in either paw and
rubbed his cheeks, chin, nose, eyes and
head. Heated with his exertions he exuded
catnip at every pore. He ate an additional
mouthful or two of the stuff and then
jumped back to his shelf, where he lay the
very picture of satiety and contentment.
In the tigers’ cage there is a young but
full grown animal captured within 18
months in the jungles of India. He is a
powerful brute and one with whom even
the keepers do not seek a close acquaint
ance. When this great, surly beast in
haled the first sniff of the catnip, he, began
to mew like a kitten. Prior to this the
softest note of his voice had been one
which put the roar of the big maned South
African lion to shame. That vicious tiger
and his kindly dispositioned old mate fair
ly reveled in the liberal allowance of the
plant which was thrust into their cage.
They rolled about in it and played together
like 0-week-old kittens. They mewed and
purred, evidently discussing the question
as to whnt this strange plant was which
gave them a variety of, pleasure never be
fore experienced. They tossed it about,
ate of it and after getting about as liberal
a dose as had Billy the leopard they like
wise leaped to their respective shelves and
blinked lazily at the sun.
The big lion Major was either too dig
nified or too lazy to pay more than passing
attention to the bunch of catnip which fell
to his lot. He ate a mouthful or two of
it and then licked his chops in a “that’s
not half bad’ ’ way, and then went back to
his nap. The three baby lions quarreled
over their allowance and ate it every bit,
but they could not be beguiled, despite
their tender years, into frolicking over the
presence of tbe .plant.—Chicago Times-
Herald.
Photograph of Cape Horn.
Ever since Cape Horn’s existence has
been known efforts have to get
a picture of it. Artists have gone down
there and some have been fortunate enough
to secure a few rough sketches, but an
actual reproduction of the spot did not ex
ist until a few days ago. This was when a
negative made by Captain Rivers of the
ship A. J. Ropes was developed.
The southernmost point of South Amer
ica is, for a piece of barren land, the best
known in all the world. Everybody who
can read knows of Cape Horn and for
some mysterious reason takes an interest
in it. Os course the great writers of sea
“ stories have done their share to make the
spot famous, but there seems to be some
reason deeper than all this. -Why would it
not be an easy matter to make a picture of
Cape Horn? There are a dozen reasons
outside of the photographic ones, and they
alone are enough to deter the camera op
erator from attempting it.
In the first place, it is not always possi
ble to see Cape Horn even though the ship
is only a few miles away. Storms nearly
always prevail at that end of the world,
and tho atmosphere is likely to be hazy.
When the water is comparatively calm,
there is likely to be a fog. During the sea
sons of the heavy, dry winds and clear
weather no ship would dare venture with
in sight of the Horn. At other times the
light is likely to be poor and so make a
picture impossible. And then, when all
conditions are favorable, the chances are
there will be no camera aboard the ship
that happens to be there at the opportune
time.
Photographically, tho principal difficulty
would be lack of light and contrast Un
der ordinary conditions a plate exposed on
Capo Horn would reveal very little, if in
deed it gave so much as an outline. The
chances are that the water in the fore
ground would show and the distance ap
pear only as a line of fog.—San Francisco
Call.
Taking No Chance*.
A citizen of a small town on the line of
the Illinois Central railroad in Mississippi
was in the railroad station a day or two
since when the operator received a tele
gram from this city intended for a mer
chant of tho Mississippi town.
“The yellow fever seems to be getting
ahead nicely, " remarked the operator.
“How’s that?” inquired the citizen.
“Just got a telegram from New Orleans,
and it"—
“Is that telegram from New Orleans?’
“Yes. Why?”
“Never mind why. You just keep away
from me. I don’t want to get near that
there yaller paper. That’s why. And lock
here, young feller, if you take anymore of
them things, you’ll get run out of town,
and don’t you forget it. I’m going to re
port you to the lx>ard, you see if I don’t ’“
And away went the panic stricken inno
cent posthaste to sound the direful alarm.
