WAS
A t about three o’clock in the after
noon I came along to a Kentucky
“ squat," which differed from a hundred
others only in tho fact that a woman
and boy sat on a log In front of the
opening in the brush fence,which might
be termed the gate, and because six
dogs were lying in the sun instead of
the usual throe or four. I askod after
the man of the house, and the woman
replied:
“ He un haln't home just now.”
“ Be back soon?”
“ I reckon. Ho 'un has gone down the
road a piece to drop that Dave Smith.4
" T o what?” I asked.
“ T o drop Dave Smith.”
“ Do you mean he haa gone to ahoot
Smith?"
“ Sartin. Th ey 'una has bin wantin'
to pop at each other fur a long time.”
“ Thar she clatters!" shouted the boy
as the report of a gun reached our ears,
and lie was off down the road lik e a
deer.
"Reckon the ole man dropped him ,"
calmly observed the woman as she went
on with her work of patching an old
woolen shirt.
I expressed my unbounded surprise at
this sort of man-hunting, but she said it
was one of the customs, and had to be
lived up to. In about ten minutes the
boy reappeared, and, sitting down on
the log to get his breath, he said:
“ Pop’s a-coming.’ *
“ Drop Smith?" she queried, without
even looking up.
“ No; Smith dropped him. Pop's got
buckshot in the shouldor. Better g it
things ready.”
"Reckon I had, Jim,” she shouted,
getting up, she folded her work and
moved into the house without the least
sign of excitement.
A fow minutes
later the husband came up at a slow
walk, with the fresh blood dripping
from his shoulder, and halted long
enough In front of me to say:
“ Evening to you, stranger. Sort o'
make yourself to home. I went out to
drop Smith, and the ornery varmint was
waitin' behind a bush and dropped me.

W eapon#.
Some years ago a young man, in all the
glory of his first knickerbockers, found
himself in a small village on the N ew
England coast, and, liking the location,
determined to spend the season there.
The morning follow ing his arrival he
ran down to the beach, where he fonnd
a crowd o f red shirted men gathered
arming a flat fish about three feet In
length. “ W e ’re trying to get some one
to heft it,” said an old sea dog in answer
to a question. " L i f t it! W h y, a child
could do that," remarked the young man
from the city.
“ P'raps he could," replied the fisher
man; “ but i f you kin lug the fish from
here to the dory over yfinder you kin
earn $5."
“ Y o u ’re a fine lot of men,” said the
city youth, w ith a laugh; “ can’t lift a
fish o f that sizet W h y, TT1 wager the
same amount that I con throw it that
far. ”
The fishermen were very anxious to
take the wager, and finally the young
man approached, thrust his fingers into
the eyes o f the fish, and, i f it had been
any other fish we might have s&id, pre
pared to throw, but as it waa the mo
ment his hands touched the fish a strange
look o f surprise came over hie face, and
those near might have seen a certain rig
idity o f the muscles. H e retained the
■ante position for several moments, then,
w ith many grimaces,asked to be relieved,
and amid roars o f laughter the fish was
pulled from his hands. When the young
man had recovered his equanimity he
confessed that it was the heaviest fish he
had ever attempted to lift.
The fish was the ray, known popularly
as the torpedo (topiedom am ioratus), and
one o f tlie most powerful o f the marine
electricians.
It is said that the physician o f Cleo
patra, Deoscorides, used those fishes in
medicine, and Dr. Walsh, F. R. 8., was
robably the first to introduce lta use in
Ingland.
Tho experiment o f Dr. W alsh created
a craze that swept over tills country some
few years ago. The most extravagant
stories were circulated about the fish and
its marvelous powers o f healing, and it
became a fashionable fad to go to the
Isle o f Re and take an electric shock
from the fish o f Dr. WalHh.
The livin g torpedo in these experi
ments was placed upon a w et towel, and
from the fish extended tw o pieces o f
wire, tlie ends o f which rested in bowls
o f water. A circle o f persons was formed,
those upon tlie end placing their fingers
in the water, and in this w ay the shock
was received by the entire party, and
often equaled that o f a Leyden ja r in itd
intensity.
In examining the torpedo tlie electri
cal apparatus is very noticeable, being
made up o f tw o large, flat bodies lying
on each side o f the head. The organa
are composed o f numerous prisms placed
vertically, each o f which is subdivided
by delicate septa, form ing small cells,
whicli contain a clear, tremulous, je lly
like substance. In a specimen of torpedo
marmoratus one may count nearly 500
of these prisms.
It has been found that the upper side
o f the fish is negative and the lower posi
tive, and tliut tho [lower is entirely under
the control o f tho fish. Some curious
experiments have been made; thus, tlie
scientist Marcz applied a telephone to the
fish and at every ordinary shock given he
distinctly heard a click. When the fish
was greatly excited a load groan was
heard, which sounded like “ m i,” and the
discharge was prolonged four or five sec
onds.
The electrical discharge o f this fish is
not o f sufficient [lower to kill a man un

ously fatal. They leaped high in air
upon receiving the shock, and fell back
dead and rigid and remained for some
time bent in a curve. In appearance the
torpedo is a flat fish, with a rounded
head and short, thick toil.—Electrical

Jommetry is a study witch treats—an
a m ighty dry treat it is—of dividin up
surfaces. On tho first page is axums. A
tiu m is a thing you can guess without
askin, or see without lookin, as. A ele-
funt is bigger than a rat. Only they
don't have any animals in jommetry,
and that's why it’s so stupid. One of
the easiest axums to remember is— “ A
strate line is tlie shortis distance be
tween two points.”
This is pretty true, but it depends on
how the walkin' is. and on what lays be
tween tlie two points.
There is two kinds uf Jommetry—
plain and solid, l ’lain jommetry is any
thing hut plain; but solid jommetry is
orfully solid.

It looks easy, but it's no fool of a job

as the pawns as honorum. (Them last
