Experiment With a Tumbler.
Take a thin blown glass tumbler.
Fill it nearly full of water and place
on its borders, after drying them
well, a cross of equal( branches cut
from paper. Turn down at right angles
the ends of the branches of the cross,
in order to prevent it from slipping
down the sides.
If you now cause the glass to vi
brate by rubbing some part of its ex
terior surface with your wet fingers,
as if you were going to make it ring,
you will perceive the glass to omit a
sound. But more than this, you will
notice the following: If your finger
rubs the glass under one of the
branches of the paper cross, the latter
will remain stationary. But if, on the
contrary, you rub a part of- the glass
situated between the branches of the
cross, the cross will begin to turn
slowly as if it obeyed some magical
influence and will not stop until the
end of one of the branches arrives
over the part rubbed by the finger.
Thus, by moving the finger around the
glass, you make the cross turn as you
olease. Magical Experiments.

THIS is the latest and best "official" picture of the king wid queen or
England. It was taken this summer. It is of especial interest just at
this time because of the report that King George and Queen Mary
may visit the' United States before the year is over. According to this
rumor, it was said the royal couple would visit Canada first and then, being
so near the United States, would cross the border and visit New York and
Washington. The visit would have great significance just now when the dim

players are not affected by adversity.
A slump does not weigh on their minds.
Unfortunately we have too few of that
class in our club. We have an over
abundance of the players who worry
when tbey fail to hit or field perfectly.
That is not to their discredit, for it
simply means that they 'are in earnest
In fact, many of them are trying tod
hard under such conditions.

team we had A bunch of hard hitters,

Ritchey. Why? Because he was one ol
those care free fellows who never wor
ried about anything. If he did, all
right, and If he didn't all right. Thai
was his way of looking at matters, and
it made him a great ball player. Com

to hit, did not affect him any more
than lying down to take a nap.
"The stories of dissension, as I said
before, are absolutely without founda

for them to do it.

The Pirates were, tipped in advance
to win the pennant. They had every
thing to lose and nothing to gain by
playing below their standard. The
fans expected them to win, and, while
I am sorry that to date the patrons
have been disappointed. I am certain
that the players are not to blame and
that they have been doing their hest
at all time."

DARING SHOOTERS
Moonlighters In the Early Days
of Our Oil Wells.
FORCED TO WORK IN SECRET.
These Bold Spirits, to Dodge the Owner
of the Patent Method of Shooting
Wells, Had to Operate at Might Men
and Machinery Often Annihilated.
One of the most dangerous and at
the. same' time romantic phases of the
early oil business was known as moon
lighting. In the beginning of the oil
excitement a certain man hejd the pat
ent on the method of shooting the
wells. Having a monopoly of the
trade, be could and did charge what
ever price he saw fit
As a result of this condition of
affairs there sprang into existence a
number of bold spirits who began the
manufacture of nitroglycerin, the ex
plosive used, and shooting the wells
for much less money than the patent
nolder charged. They were forced
to use the greatest secrecy In their
work, for the patent holder had men
employed for the express purpose of
spying on all the wells drilled. A stiff
fine for the first offense and a prison
term for the second were the punish
ments inflicted on the man unlucky
enough to get caught Thesg outlaw
shooters had their plants foi making
the glycerin located in some out of the
way spot and when their services were
required did their shooting by moon
light, hence the name moonlighter.
Many and varied were the adventures
that " befell these moonlighters. A
driller coming out from town to a well
one day saw a can half bidden in a
fence corner and stopped to investi
gate. Taking off the lid, he saw what
he supposed was lard oiL Well pleased
with his find, he took it along with
him. He showed his treasure to his
mates at the well and then used some
of it to lubricate the engine. For some
reason the men were called from the
vicinity of the derrick. They had got
but a short distance when there was
an explosion that fitted the costly en
gine for the scrap heap. A close In
spection of the supposed lard oil re
vealed the startling fact that it was
nitroglycerin. It was a frightened lot
of men who gingerly returned the can
to the fence corner from which the
driller had taken it
It proved to be the propeTrty of a
moonlighter, who had left it there, in
tending to return for it that night.
In so dangerous an occupation as
moonlighting many fatal accidents
were to be expected. I recall very dis
tinctly two that occurred within a short
time of each other.
In the first the moonlighter, a big
blond Swede, had come straight from
bis wedding to the well. The Hquor
he bad been drinking in celebration of
his marriage had ruffled his usually
placid temper. He had filled the shell
with the glycerin and was endeavor
ing to slip the cap into place. His
bands were a trifle unsteady, and he
fumbled it several minutes. Finally,
losing his temper, he roughly jerked
the cap into place and struck the per
cussion cap a heavy blow with his
Bst
There was a crash that shook the
very earth. The derrick and everything
In it was blown fo flinders. The men
who had been watching the operation
tvere Instantly killed.
Some time later another terrible ac
cident happened. The moonlighter
was a young fellow and noted for his
careful work. The well he was to
shoot bad made a fine showing in the
sand, and the owner-confidently ex
pected a gusher.. The shot was started
down, and everything seemed to be
going all right. There were several
men in the derrick, and a tool dresser
stood waiting for the shot to reach the
bottom of the well when the piece of
iron he held in bis band, which was
called the go devil, would be sent down
to set it off. The moonlighter let the
rope, which was stretched taut by the
weight of the heavy shot run through
his hands. Suddenly the rope slack
sued. He knew only too well what
that meant. The gas in the well was
forcing the shot back out.
"It is coming out! For God's sake
belp me catch it!" he yelled to the tool
iresser.
With a shriek the tool dresser fled,
and the others, knowing their terrible
ianger. followed him. The shooter,
prompted by the mad hope of catching
the shell as it came out and thus avert
ing the disaster, stuct to hifpost.
There came a deafening explosion
that reduced the derrick to a mass of
kindling wood. The boiler and engine
were twisted wrecks. Strewn upon
the ground were the mutilated remains

tvbo had tried, - with such desperate

"Nitroglycerin , is when bandied in
broad daylight and under most favor
able conditions a dangerous article.
How greatly' the danger was increased
hy handling it- as the moonlighters
ivere compelled to may easily be un
lerstood. It was without doubt a
most hazardous occupation, but the ex
citement connected with it to say
oothing of the large amount of money
received for their services, proved irre
sistible to the reckless and daring fel
