The temperature necessary to melt
wrought Iron lies between 4000 degrees

Dr. Murry of the Royal Society of Edin
burgh estimate the mean height of the

A series of experiments recently made

proved that steel loses weight by rust
about twice as rapidly as cast Iron when

AN IMPORTANT OECISION.
New York, March 21. Chief Justice
Mc Adams decided to-day a case of impor
tancs to the Odd Fellows. Henriche
Pfefner was a member of an Odd Fellow
encampment, and for the last fourteen
years of his life was a Patriarch. After
his death the association refused to pay
his widow $100 on his death and $30 for
funeral expenses on the ground that he
was not in good standing. The Chief
Justice found that Pfeffier had not paid his
dues, and thereupon the jury gave a ver
dict fer the association.

CALIFORNIA It A II HIT MUVKKM.
Rabbits have multiplied so rapidly
througheat (California that they have e
come one of the most serious pests of the
country . It Is estimated that three rabbits
will eat as much as a sheep,and that what
can be killed in a day's rabbit drive will
consume as much alfalfa as a hundred
beef cattle. A good many schemes have
been devised for getting rid of the pests,
but the only efficacious one is the rabbit
drive. This is considered very gfd field
sport, and a drive Is always participated
in as much by those who are after fun as
by those who want the rabbits killed.
The first thing in getting up a rabbit
drive Is to make a rabbit proof corral of
close, high palings, enclosing a space
about thirty by ten or twenty yards. Lead
intf Into this at right ane-les are two lines
of closely set salines, a Quarter ef a mile
In length. Several hundred men on horse
0 or eat a
back and on foot the a surround a section
or two of land, and work slowly toward
the corral with shouts and beating of the
ground. At flrft but few rabbits will be
een, but as the drives close In toward the
palings, the little frightened beasts are as
thick sa sheen in a corral. They make
frantic efforts te escape, and In trying to
break through the Use of beater many
are killed by the clubs of the walkers.
The drivers close In slowly, and the rah
bits are gradually driven Into the space
partially enclosed bv the paliags,and from
there it is easy to force them into the cor
ral. They troop In like sheep, crowding
over one another, and filling the corral.
The drivers on foot follow, the corral Is
closed and the slaughter begins. They are
killed with the clubs by striking them on
the head. The air is filled with their
shrill squealing, which can be heard a
smile away. They leap about In despera
tion, jump high and dash themselves
seslnst the fence, huddle in the corners
and try to hide behind one another or be
sw
hind the heap of those already killed.
The clubs whistle through the air, net
Infrequently striking the shins of lite
killer, instead of the head of the rabbits,
for It requires a good aim, a steady arm
and no small amount of skill to guide
every stroke to Its destination on the skull
af a rabbit that is leaolatt about like mad.
When the slaughter Is ended the rab
bits are strewn over the ground as thick
as dead leaves, and in place their c areas-
ae will be in piles two feet high. Between
ijooand 1500 rabbits are usually killed In
each drive, and It 1 no uncommon thing
for a man to score a handred dead rabbits
In one round-up. In part most infested
the drives are held once a week.
THE I .HE OF WATER AT REALM.
Opinions differ a to the effect of the
free Ingestion of water at meal times, but
1 the .jew m4t generally received I prob
I m fMti m m
ably that It dilutes the gastric juice aad so
retards digestioa. Apart from the fact that
a moderate delay in the process Is by ao
means a ditadvaatnge, as Sir William
Robert ha shown ia hi explanation of
the popularity of tea and coffee, it is more
than doubtful whether any such effect 1
in reality produced. When ingested during
meals, water may do good by washing oat
the digested food, and by exposing the
undigested part more thoroughly to the
action of the digestive ferment. Pepsin I
a catalyptic body, and a given quantity
will work almost Indefinitely provided the
peptones are removed a they are formed.
The good effect of water, drunk freely
before meals, has, however, another bene
ficial result It washes away the mucus
which is secreted by the mucus membrane
during the intervals of repose, and favor
peristalsis of the whole alimentary tract.
The membrane thas cleansed Is In a much
better condition to receive food and con-
vert it into soluble compounds. The ac
cumulation of mucus U specially well-
marked In the morning, when the gastric
walls are covered with a thick tenacious
layer. Food eaterlng the stomach at thl
time will become covered with this tena
cious coating, which for a time protect It
from the action of the gastric ferments,
and so retards digestion. The tubular con
tracted stomach, with Its puckercn mucus
lining and viscid contents, a normal condi
tion in the morning before breakfast, is
not suiuble to receive food. Exercise be
fore partaking of a meal stimulates the
circulation of the blood and facilitates the
flow of blood through the vessels. A glass
of water washes out the mucus, partially
distends the stomach, wakes up peristal
sis, and prepares the alimentary canal for
the morning meal. Observation has shown
that uonlrritating liquids pass directly
through the "tubular" stomach, and even
if food be present they only mix with it to
a slight extent. According to Dr. Leuf,
who ha made this subject a special study
cold water should be given to persons who
have sufficient vitality to react and hot
water to the others. In chronic gastric ca
tarrh It Is extremely beneficial to drink
warm or hot water before meals, and salt
is said in most cases to add to the good
effect produced.
CURIOSITY.
Mr. Geo. Huston brought to this office
a cake of crystallzed apples Saturday. He
had a number of sack of apples in the
cellar under his grocery store, which dur
ing the severe cold weather froze solid.
Then came a thaw and afterward the wa
ter from the ditch backed up and filled the
cellar. In a short time Mr. Huston pro
ceeded to remove the sack of apple and
was surprised to find them still solid with
a thick covering of ice about the fruit,
which, when taken from their crystallzed
coating, were found to be as good as they
were before being frozen, retaining their
flavor and solidity and ready for market.
