In tin; Swan i'iver district liie g ernmeiit is appre hensive for the remarkable crae that has taken possesion of those colon ists. A visit i o t lie comiii ii uiiy show ed that the sigiits, scenes and the horror depicted were almost beyond concep tion. It is well known that the Dotikhobor st i a re nd erse to shechii ng blood. Th is is the reason why they emigrated from Unssia. ami it is a!.sc the reason why tlo i ':; nadiau governmen t exeniit eil them from military duty as induce ment for their location on the prairie lands of the west. As to what they should eat, lliis was purely a persona I :nalter. but. as it appears, it was one of the f en t ures that was overlooked by the government that will cause inl ine ii st t rouble. In this country a man may eat what he choo.-es. nnd if 1. is religion dictates that be shall conform to a vegetable diet, such belk'fs are respected. All might lmve been well had this state of affairs been confined to vegetarian ism, Out tile I 'oil K il i ' 1 s !' t i religion does not appear t( ben finished prod uct. It has been constantly undergo ing changes. From tlie belief that it was a sin to eat meat, it .-ccms a long jump to reach the conclusion that it is wrong to eat animal products, but these people have now given up drink ing milk, eating biiller, cheese, eggs, etc., and t he cows, oen. goats and fowl are increasing ,md multiplying, and The equipment of the Pinehurst Gun club embraces an interesting feature in the shape of a tower trap. Such traps are cpjite common in Europe, but prac tically unknown in thla country,' Bays the New York Sim. in the top of the tower are two tar get traps, one at the right and one at the left. The attendant is protected by a heavy platik partition which also hides the traps from view. The traps are pulled from the rear, In the usual man ner. Birds may be thrown in five ways, right, left, unknown, overhead ant; doubles. In all of these events, with the exception of the overhead birds, the shooter faces the tower. at the usual distance. In the overhead shooting he standi back to the tower and directly underneath it. The sport furnished is novel as compared with the usual trap shooting. The idea is to produce conditions such &s those the sportsman experiences in wild waterfowl, pigeon or other shoot ing, or in shooting birds which lly from trees. Known angles to the right and left are not difficult and many gunners have a knack for killing overhead birds, but unknown angles puzzle the experts, and doubles, two birds shooting off in opposite directions and at the same time, call for a skill and quickness that few possess. But doubles are not im possible, and the shooting is wonderful ly fascinating because of its difficulty. WAS A COLLEGE ATHLETE.

There is no sur a4.4e outlet for this water over Ihe rim the crater, and ifthr44- were the low erpera.turesiof the rrost of the old rr.oun Ain, would seem freeze and close it up. A subterraneous channel, leading down -'.roueh the- heart of the mountain, mayi i;i ve a temporary vent to the-pent-up wa t'-rs. The three witnessed an innom- "'iTcV'ly grnnd punrie from the summit next morning, and on that day, which Sunday, descended into Paradise xzi ey by way of the old route by Gib raltar rock.

The next step was still mure sweeping in its effect on t hei r econom ic condit ion. It was to make servants of any of the 1 ower animals, to use them for beasts of burden or for any other pur pose. They had the courage of their con victions, nnd at once turned out their hors-es. cattle and sheep, driving them to "('od.'s Hill." to forage for them selves, placing si 1 1 the burdens of farm life on their own shoulders. For all dm wing purposes, such, as hauling heavy loads on watrons, men fake the place of horse44! and oxen. Twelve or 14 men hi;hed to a plow suffice for this purpi se. and it is the oniy met-hed employed by them in i he oi Hi a t ion of the vol.

A seedy individual, attired in what had once been a stylish outfit, crowned with a silk hat of ancient vintage, strolled into the rear room of an Elev enth street thirst emporium a few nights ago and announced his presence in such a manner that he soon had an interested crowd of listeners, says the Philadelphia Press. "See that hand?" he said, displaying tA grimy member, with three broken and twisted fingers; and then adding: "I got them when I pitched in the Berkley (CalJ ba&elali team." Then the wrist was displayed, which showed signs of the poor setting of a fracture. "That broke when I played halfback for Princeton in '93," he explained. Growing enthusiastic over his injuries, he removed a shoe to display a once broken ankle, explaining briefly that pole vaulting a; the University of Wis consin was responsible for it.

The "blowing" of a fuse in an elec tric street car, which fills the average passenger with alarm, simply indicates that a safety device has proved relia ble and that a danger of injury to the motor has Iven averted by it, say3 the New York Herald. The current which will flow through a motor when it is standing still is in almost all cases far in excess of that which the motor is desltrneu to carry: and. indeed, in a well designed motor a current danger ous for the motor will be reached be fore the motor has been stalled. The effect of this heavy current on the mo tor, if allowed to continue, is to heat the windings to a dangerous degree and destroy the insulation, possibly setting it on fire; and it is to prevent this occurrence, whether due to care less handling of the car or to unex pected causes, that the fu.-es are used. A fuse is simply a short piece of wire of such sb.e that it will be melted by a current which, if allowed to How through the motor for any time, wili damage it. The melting of the fu.-u opens the circuit and cuts off the cur rent from the motor. To protect tbe car the fuse is tnclosed in a fireproof box. When the fuse blows there is gen erally a volatilization of the metal of tbe fuse and a slight explosion. These explosions usually cause a report and sonic emoiio. Two Centurion Ao.
