Law of American Deaert. .
"One of the oldest humane lawg In j
this country," said E. J. Sanford, "Is
In force In Nevada. In that section of
the American desert which lies in Ne
vada travelers In distress may flag the
limited passenger trains and compel
the train crews to give them water to j
drink. The law makes It a felony to
refuse to comply with the traveler's
renupst." i
Mr. Sanford said numerous Instances
were known In th aarltAF rinva when
travelers took advantage of the protec- j
tion this law afforded, but In recent
years few persons attempted to cross
the desert except by train. Kansas

"Good-By, Baby!" I
The German Empress has been beard
to say that the happiest periods of her
life were the few weeks following the
birth of each of her children, when she 1
was able to retire from public duty and

It happened when the youngest son
of the German royal family was an in

Her majesty rose hurriedly, and
came forward vwlth her eyes . full of

Bfarrlaare Real Lottery Her.
Everv vear in the Ruinal country, in
India, a marriage 'lottery Is held, gen
erally in October. The names of all
the marriageable girls and of the
young men who are tired of bachelor
life are written on slips of paper and
thrown into separate earth pots. One
of each kind is drawn at one time by
!a local wise man. The youth whose
name is drawn out obtains a letter of
i introduction to the young woman whose
Iname accompanies his, and then all
that remains for him to do is to start
courtship, with all the ardor of which
he is capable. Such fortuitous court
ships might not appear at first sight to
promise very well for future connubial
happiness; but, nevertheless, in the
majority of cases, everything turns out
very satisfactory.
France produces more than twice as
many potatoes as- the United States. The

An appropriation of ,30,000 bas been
made by tbe Italian government for the
establishing of six wireless telegraph
stations at Rome, Milan. Turin, Sicily,
Sardinia and Massowa. These stations
are designed for general use, and an
effort la to be made to popularize this
system for the transaction of public
and private business.
In a lecture to the Paris Academy of
Medicine, Prof. Dr. Grehant stated that
water gas is seven times more poison
ous than ordinary lighting gas. In
presence of the recent fir damp explo
sions at Llevin, In the north of France,
and Saarbruck, In Germany, he ad
vised that samples of the air la the
underground workings be taken both
day and night and be analyzed regularly.
It was in the latter part of 1903 that
Sir John Murray made a series St ex
periment to determine the temperature
of Loch Ness. Tbe thermometer was
Immersed to a depth of 200 feet, and
the temperature was recorded on an In
strument at a distance of 1,200 feet
from the thermometer. The thermome
ter was attached to a cable wound on
a drum, which was fixed to the deck
of a boat which was moored In the
loch, and the cable was connected to
the shore cable by an elaborate mer
cury cup.
When an automobile is running at
high speed the rubber tires are rapidly
warmed, and the heat sometimes be
comes very great, with resultant In
Jury to the rubber. The cause of this
accumulation of heat In the tire is
ascribed to the kneading of th- rubber,
which generates heat faster than It can
be radiated away. For this reason man
ufacturers have found It to be an ad
vantage to have metal parts in the
tread, such as the ends of rivets, in
contact with the tire, because the metal,
being a good radiator, helps to carry
off tbe heat to the outer air.
"It Is generally conceded that within
a year an electric glow lamp, the tung
sten lamp, will be on the market," says
Prof. W. S. Franklin, in Science, "and
that the output of light per unit of
power consumed will be Increased at
least threefold above that which Is now
obtained by the carbon filament glow
lamp." The writer adds that this
means that the light-producing capac
ity of every electric-lighting station in
the world will be at once multiplied
by three, with the possibility of greatly
reduced prices per unit of light, and
and also greatly increased profits.
The tungsten lamp, In which a metallic
filament takes the place of the ordi
nary carbon loop, has received much at
tention in technical journals.
Dr. James Gale, the well known Brlt-
tls scientist, whose death at the age of
73 is announced, was stricken with
blindness when he was 17. But this
did not prevent him from pursuing the
study of science and literature with ar
dor and success. He Invented a voltaic
battery, which was once the means of
bringing him In what is said to be the
record fee of $250,000, as the reward
for the cure of a millionaire patient
Dr. Gale discovered a means of making
gunpowder temporarily non-explosive,
and gave a demonstration before Queen
Victoria. "While I was conducting the
experiments," he related, "which in
cluded stirring up a quantity of gun
powder with a red-hot poker, Prince
Leopold and Princess Beatrice came
Into the orangery. I was much amused
at hearing the princess remark to the
queen in a very audible whisper, 'I
thought you told me Mr. Gale was
blind. I am sure, he Isn't He has
beautiful eyes.' .'Hush !' said the queen,
reprovingly: 'Mr. Gale is blind, but
pray remember that he is not deaf.' "

cortnne in a Boy'a Dirty Feet. '
Because John Hermann, a small boy
in Lincoln, Neb., forgot his mother's
command to be sure and wash his feet
before going to bed, several Lincoln
men seem to owe him the chance to
make a fortune. ' An antlphloglstlne
factory Is to be, started In consequence, j
the antiseptic application to be manu
factured from clay banks In the south
ern part of the city. The boy, who had
5one barefooted for the first time this
year, awoke the next morning to find
that his clay-covered feet were blis
tered. Dr. Wlnnett, after examining
the clay with which the youngster's
feet was coated, declared that all that
It needed to obtain a very good quality
of antlphloglstlne, or Denver mud, was
the addition of glycerin and an anti
septic. The doctors and the owners of
the land through which the clay banks
run at once made plans for a factory.
