While the thunderstorm waa at its height on a recent Sunday the light ning played a peculiar prank out at Liynwood, says the Minneapolis Trib une. In front of A. Eichorn's cottage stand two enormous oak trees, each something like one hundred feet high and from two and one-half to three Jbet in diameter. The trees stand about twelve or fifteen feet apart and are connected, as it were, forty feet from the ground by a piece of timber lour inches square, which has been placed in a fork of each for the pur pose of furnishing the children of the neighborhood a swing of unusual apacity for making aerial trips. While the storm was raging lightning struck the top of one of the oaks, the electrical fluid passing down the tree and tearing several limbs from the trunk on its course. On reaching the timber supporting the swing the bolt shot across it as though it had been a metal conductor provided especially for the occasion and tore down the trunk of the second oak, finally spending its force in the earth, leaving a large hole to mark the spot. The force of the electrical -current was so great that in its passage down the trunk of the second tree struck it rended off pieces of timber six feet long and as large through as the body of an ordinary sized man. Smaller pieces were hurled through the air a distance of three hundred feet. Mr. Eichorn, with his family, was sit ting on tho porch at the time the shaft did its work, and all were badly fright ened by seeing a stick as large as a good-sized piece of cordwood come whizzing through space in their direc tion. It struck on the roof of the porch above their heads, however, and did no more serious damage than to tear off a patch of shingles. TOOTH OF A SAURIAN. Remarkable Specimen Found In a Mary land Iron Mine Recently. Charles E. Coffin, of Muirkirk. Md.. has lately placed at the disposal of the Woman's College museum for study and description, in connection with other collections irom tne same region, a re markable saurian tooth, recently ex umed from his iron mines in Prince George county. It measures three inches in leneth. and the herbivorous dinosaur to which it belonged was not less tnan twenty-five feet in length. The dentine of the tooth, with Its beautiful polish and characteristic irauBverse marmngs, is almost perfectly preserved, and the delicate of its edges are as sharply defined as wnen me reptile was Imbedded In the lignitic clays of the Potomac forma tions. The mine from which the tnnth tv as excavated, savs the Baltimore, Amerl. can, is the same as that from which I'rol. O. U Marsh, of Yale, several years ago, obtained a considerable collection. These remains were so highly prized by this distinguished investigator that several men and an engineer were em ployed for a number of weeks in mak ing excavations for the nama. Though the Maryland dinosaurs wpr huge animals in comparison with rep utes now living.they are but dwarfs be side some of the gigantic species which inhabited the western Xorth A morion. In Jurassic time. During a recent visit to the Woman's college,. Prof. Marsh re marked that one of the fossil Bpecies he discovered in the west could stand on the lawn in front of Goucher hall and eat with comfort from the roof. This "terrible lizard" was one hundred feet long, and the largest animal ever known 10 lniiauu Uio earth. FUTURE OF THE HORSE. I'sea ta Which the Animal Will Always Ha Tamed. When railroads were first put in op. oration it was predicted that there would be a great full in the value of horses, a deterioration of horse flesh, Htid finally that the animals would nam become euriiwtitiea on tho way towards extinction. Of courae, says the Iloaton Transcript, everybody knows that nothing of the kind hap pened. Iloraes invrcnacd in number, value and quality. The business the railroads developed all along their lines occasioned a demand for more and better homes. Juat at present the popularity of tne bicycle and the appll ration nf electricity to transportation are causing some people ta repeat the predictions of fifty years ago concern Ing the horse. It la even aald that the horse In the near future will be raised simply for slaughter for food. If the horae could learn of this prediction his Intelligence and his sens of his value would prevent him from taking il aerlirualy. Ue might ask: What good la the eleclria car off the rails? How dura a bicycle act on plowed ground, and what ran It draw without the a aUlance of human energy? If horaet become very cheap will not more peo ple liny them, and will not the pirre- gate nf Individual wants owaainn a great demand that will send op prices? The Intelligent hisrae asking these qucatlona rntli well affi.nl to oilmen his (ta calmly while the alurmUl were englUltng ' "hat reply was ptSMlble. A RIPE OLD AGE. John Rogera, of Portland.
