TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, APRIL 13, 1Ô11. ESTLING BOUTS r — HINDU FUNERAL PYRES. Burning ths Dead at Benares a Cars- leee and Callous Rite. Describing tbe burning of tbelr dead by tbe Hindus of India at Benares. . Price Collier in Scribner's Magazine says: I have been present at these burn- tags, Tbe bodies are brought in ou a frail litter. A pile of logs Is built up. held in place by four iron stanchions, The body, with the bead uncovered. Is placed ou tbe logs, more logs are piled on top. the litter Is broken up and added to the small fagots under neath and the fire lighted. There are various ceremonies connected with the rite. The body is carried several times around the pile before beiug placed u|>- on IL Tbe nearest relative walks around tbe pile with a jar of water, letting It drip down as be goes till of a sudden be dashes tbe jar to tbe ground, breaking It to pieces—a sym bol of life, everywhere. At a certain moment, too. tbe skull is fractured by tbe nearest relative to allow tbe easy escape of the spirit to another world. Where tbe deceased Is rich the fire Is made of costly and sweet smelling wood, sandalwood and tbe like, and the ceremonies are more elaborate and more prolonged. No doubt It is tbe Ideal way to dispose of a dead body, but when 1 have seen it done here it seemed to me a callous and a careless rite. I have noticed ell over India tbe ab solute Indifference of tbe natives them selves to the pain and deformities and maladies that are displayed as an excuse for alms. It is not the stoicism of our western Indians, who thought It dishonorable to show fear or to shrink from pain, but an imbedded indiffer ence, a numbness to this particular Influence.

MYSTERY OF LIGHT Some Luminosity So Intonse the Eyes Cannot See It. THE RIDDLE OF THE FIREFLY, So Far It Has Baffled Science, but When It Is Solved, as It Eventually Will Be. We Shall Have Light With out Heat and the Perfect Lamp. The scientist set down a small black box and impatiently pushed aside the |s>wertui uil< rosct.pe and llie delicate bolometer. "It Is most discouraging,” he muttered, “to have such a treasure before one’s eyes aud still be unable to grasp It." 1 looked In tbe little box. surprised to find uotbing but a few brilliant fire flies. The scientist begun to explain. "In that box is the most efficient II- luminunt known to man. The radiant output from one of those insects cor responds to nearly fifty watts a can dle. while our very best artificial lllu- minant, tbe flaming arc lamp, gives only two or three watts to the candle. The light from those insects, as re corded by the bolometer, radiates little if any beat, while the very best incan descent lamps waste more than 90 per cent of tbe electrical energy In useless beat. If I could read this secret of tbe Insect world and make a lamp aft er its pattern 1 could produce 384 can dle power from the same current that gives sixteen candle power today. Some day the secret will be read.” The source of all light (except the light from fireflies and tbelr kin) is a substance raised to a temperature suf ficient to set up waves in the sur- rounding etber. which, when falling U|x>n tbe eye. produce the sensation we know as light. Light waves vary In length between one thirty-three- tbousaud-four-bundredtb and one six- ty-five-thousandth of an inch, the first being extreme red aud tbe second ex treme violet. Rays of white light have a length of one forty-five thou sandth of an inch. Tbe suu is a great mass of white hot matter. It is the at mosphere that enables us to see light, ■nd outside of our atmosphere It is nb- aolute darkness, as dark ns the Interior of Mammoth cave. In an arc lamp It Is the white bot particles of carbon floating between tbe two electrodes that produce light. Iu the Incandes cent lamp It Is tbe hairpin filament In- •Me the glass globe that, when heated by electricity, gives off light waves. In gas and oil lamps light Is produced b? tbe heated particles of enrbon in the lames above the wick or mantle. Tbe eye can stand without tiring a brilliance of about five candle power to tbe square inch of surface. Tbe or dinary candle flame gives only two or three candle power to tbe square inch, while tbe sun at zenith gives 000,000. Tbe arc light ranks next to sunlight, with 10.000 candle power an inch, and tbe best tungsten filament Incandes cent* give 1,000 candle power. This means that if tbe sun could be chang ed Into a ball of tungsten it would tferow off only 1,000 candle power of light from every square tach of its ■urface, when the world would be practically dark and we should freeze to death in a week. Tbe prism shows that white light is composed of a happy blend of all col ors of tbe spectrum. The eun gives tbe only pure white light, with tbe arc lamps a close second and tbe metal fllament Incandescents taking third place. Sky light, such as comes from the north on a clear day, is bluish white. Gas mantles give greenish light, opeu flame yellow llgbt and kero sene orange light. By the laws of evolution the human eye bas become accustomed to sun light, or sky light, coming obliquely from strave. and our eyes resent light coming from any other source. Snow blindness, dlstreoa from white aand or water, is tbe result of violating this rule. The upper eyelid Is adapted to ■hade the eye from a strong light from above. Tbe lower lid cannot per form Ibis office, so when n strong light Is reflected up into the eyes It blinds The X ray has proved beyond doubt that there are light rays which move too fast for human eyes to register.

It Is with this explana ! tion in view that we should read his colloquy with B. H. Hill toward the close of tbe war. "General. 1 wish you would give us your opinion us to the propriety of 1 changing Hie seat of government and going farther south." "That is a political question. Mr. i Hill, und you politicians must deter ■ mine it. I shall endeavor to take care <>f the army, and you politicians must I make tbe laws aud control the govern meat." "Ah. general." said Mr. Hill, "but you will have to change that rule and form and express political opinions. 1 for If we establish our Independence I the iMHtple will make you Mr. Davis’ successor.” “Never, sir," he replied, with a dig nity that belonged only to Lee.

Caesar and Fred I erick of Prussia and Bonaparte were great statesmen as well as great gen- .erals.” "And great tyrants," he replied promptly, “I speak of the proper rule tn republics, where I believe we should have neither military statesmen nor political generals.” "But Washington was both and yet not a tyrant." With a beautiful smile he respond ed. “Washington was an exception to all rules.”—Atlantic Monthly. Ife Task Nerves of 8t«ol. a Cool Hoad ■nd • Stood/ Eye. Tbe cathedral at Salisbury.

To run up tbe scaffold ing to tbe ball was easy. Then camo tbe slightly more difficult climb to the foot of the cross over tbe bulging curve of tbe ball. A short platform gave him foothold. lie reached up and put bls bands on tbe base of tbe cross aud pulled himself up. To gain tbe crossarm was merely "shinning* up a good sized tree, and soon bo stood on tho horizontal timber aud. reaching up, touched the top of tbo cross. After enjoying his moment of tri umph he slid to the foot of the cross and with his arms arouud tbe post slipped down over tbe big bulge of tho ball. His feet touched nothing. The little plank from which be had reached up was not there. Here was a 1’oe-llke situation requir ing a cool head and a steady* eye. He could, of course, not look down. Tho clinging hold that be had to maintain ou the bottom of the cross shortened the reach of Ids body and made It less than when he stood ou tbe plunk and reached up to the cross with bls hands. He must drop ho that Ids feet should reach the plunk, for be would never be able to pull himself buck If he should let himself down nt arms' length, and Ills feet liuug over empty air.

In proportion to her population Switzerland gives asylum to more for eign anarchists and revolutionists than any country In Europe. If they re spect the law they may remain in this country as long ns they wish. The Swiss have a very effective method of supervising the foreigner, be lie an archist or banker. Every foreigner arriving In Switzer land must procure from the town hall u porutls de cejour within eight days of his arrival, under penalty of n line, or, lu serious cases, of expulsion from the country, lu order Io obtain this permission ills papers must be lu order —that is to say, lie must take bls passport to Ids consular representative In Switzerland and have it signed by tbe latter. By this simple method tho identity of the foreigner Is established, and In return for bls papers, which are docketed in the town hall, be re celves a permls de cejour for a period lasting from a few days to a year— the maximum duration—when it must be renewed. This rule Is so strict that even Swiss citizens of other cantons are classed as "foreigners,” and must take out tbelr permission to reside In another canton. An exception Is made in favor of visitors stuylng at the principal hotels aud pensions, who are nominally al lowed two months' stay (Instead of eight days) .11 Switzerland liefore they are expected to legalize their papers, but this law Is not strictly enforced, as tire hotel proprietor ■uppliea tbe po lice with a list of his guests at fre- quent periods.—Washington Star. ANTS THAT COOK. They Maks Dough, Form Cakes and Bake Thom In the Sun. The remarkable habits of tbe har vester ant have long been kuown to naturalists. Certain species not only harvest and store in granaries the seeds upon which they teed, but ac tually plant and cultivate un annual crop of their food seeds. But now n still more wonderful tale Is told of an ant which Is common in Dalmatia, Messor barbarus. Ac cording to Professor Negcr of the well known forestry school near Dresden, this unt not only cuts leaves and gath ers seeds, but actually makes bread or biscuit.
