The Grand Trunk-Pacific railroad Is building through the heart of the Fraser valley In Central Britsh Columbia, the mildest and richest province of Canada.

Aug24 DSt ELECTRIHTY AIDS GROWTH Remarkable Reanlts of Experiments .. on Poplls In Stockholm .School. Considerable interest has been aroused among Swedish scientists in regard to the remarlcable electrical experiments which have been carried on for some years In one of the public schools in Stockholm. The object has been to test the beneficial influence of electricity on the development of the human body. Hitherto it had been found possible to force the, growth of vegetables by means of .electrical currents distributed from a powerful dynamo. This idea has been car ried out with signal, success in several places. It was accordingly contended that the human organism was ' equally susceptible to "expedited growth," as it had been called, through .practically continuous applications-, of an electrjca;ly charged at mosphere to the body. Two groups of twenty-five children were selected, as nearly alike as possible in general health, slxe and weight. The respective groups received their instruction In two -rooms, both equal in size, ventilation, lighting and other general conditions. But the group in one was constantly exposed to the in fluence of electric currents, while the other group pursued its studies under normal conditions. After a test of several years the two groups of children have been compared, and it is claimed that the electrified chil dren have outstripped the others mentally and physically; that they have grown faster, put on weight more quickly, and have slTown more physical fitness generally, besides possessing superior mentality. Skepticism is displayed in some quar ters, and the result of the experiment is not altogether regarded aa decisive. It is expected, however, that similar experi ments will be conducted in some other schools In order to demonstrate the sup posed efficacy of the electrifying process in improving- the mental and physical con dition of the rising population.

Wishing to apply bis theory of the limit of adaptability of a species to its environment, relates the Boston Transcript, Henrik . procured a herring from a neighboring fjord and car rieh it home In a tub of sea water. He re newed the water daily for some 'time,, and gradually reduced the quantity, with so lit tle inconvenience to the herring that he concluded that the fish might, in time, learn to breathe air undiluted with water, like the cat and man. it turned out as he expected, and the water was finally emptied out of the tub, never to be replaced. Hen rik next removed the fish from lis tub and placed It on tha ground, where It flopped about very awkwardly at first, but soon learned to move freely and rapidly. In a little while the herring was able to follow its master without difficulty, and then it became his constant companion about the streets of the city. On a certain unfortunate day Henrik had occasion to croas a dilapidated bridge which spanned an arm of the harbor. The her ring, coming gracefully along, heedless of danger, now and again springing at flies, for which It had acquired a great fondness, missed its fluting, slipped through a cruck into the water and was drowned, Prof. John Monahan, musician and for mer leader of a brass hand, now foreman of the city stable in Swan street, Tomp kinsville, Long Island, owns two black Spanish hens, which he has trained into animated alarm clocks. The professor has to arise to go to his stable at 6 o'clock, and he has taught the two hens to crow lustily at 4:30 o'clock. They crow so regularly and unfailingly that Monahan has sold his alarm clock fe the Junkman. Every morning when the hens crow the professor Jumps out of bed and throws a shoe out of the .window. They then cease their crowing, but if Monahas should sneak back to bed and drop into slumber again the bens break out into a chorus of freh erowlBgs. The Rlverview park zoo in Pittsburgh is much anvjsed In the interest Dude, the patriarch of the monkey colony, has taken In a 6-month-old kitten, and In the fatherly way he watches over he little stray animal. Dude found the kitten in his rambles about the walks In the neighborhood of the monkey cage, he being a privileged property of the zoo, and Immediately "adopted" it. The kitten has become quite a pet among the other nmr.kojs In the cskc. too. The head keeper, Mr. Overheck, onve tried to take the kitten uay from Dudo, but this threatened disruption of the nrV family tics cause a protest from the monke) s.

After an absence of more than half a century, and long mourned as dead, Sammy, a pet land turtle that long ajt passed the century mark, returned to his home at the farm ef John Allen, Chest nut Hill, Pa., where the hard-shelled pet of Mr. Allen's father received a warm welcome. The turtle crawled wearily to the doorstep of the Allen homo, appear ing glad to return after his 57-) car stroll. Mr. Allen discovered on the turtle's back the Initials "J. A," with the date lf!:.4, which were carved by Allen's father In that year. Bears have been troublesome to ranch ers near Valley, Wash., but hereafter they will keep clear of the farm of James E. Short trnd his red bull with short horns and long tall. This week a black bear Invaded the Short place, and in the moonlight Short saw the bear climbing out of the pen with a squealing pig dangling from its mouth. As Short emerged Into the open to shoot, he saw his bull rush at the bear. Bruin dropped the pig, and as he side stepped the bull's rush, slapped the animal on the Jaw.' This enraged the bull, and he turned and caught Brlln on his horn and tossed the 250-pound brute over the fence, where Short shot him. He had been badly gored. LAST SURVIVOR OF FAMOUS OLD JOHN BROWN RAIDERS He is Hiram Springs, Patriarchal Resident of Mattoon, 111., Antlve of Indiana. Hiram Spriggs, a resident of Mattoon. HI., has the distinction of being the only man living who was actively associated with John Brown. Mr. Sprlggs was not only active during the anti-slavery raids, but his three years' service in the civil war was thrilling and strenuous. Although Mr. Sprlggs is now 78 years old and a sufferer from rheumatism, his memory is vivid, his mind is clear and his steel blue eyes are thoughtful and pene trating. His square Jaw, heavily bearded; his firm mouth, veiled by a long drooping mustache, emphasises his determination, fearlessness and tenacity of purpose. He was born In 1833 on a farm in Jen nings county, Indiana, where he grew to manhood. He cultivated a strength of body and mind which made him a force to be reckoned with when it came to a question of endurance. During his year and a half of experience with John Brown and his three years In the civil war he was never sick a day. After the death of his father, John Sprlggs, who was a millwright as well aa a farmer, he moved with his mother and other members of the family to Kansas, where they entered land near Garnet on the Pottawatomie river. There they lived In seclusion, save for the Interest young; Sprlggs took in the anti-slavery question. The Injustice wrought against the help less blacks fired his soul with indignation, but prudently he held his peace until Brown called for volunteers to avenge the death of his boy and the burning of Osa watomie, his home town, by the bush whackers or slavery sympathizers. In speaking of Brown, Mr. Bprlggs says: "He was a man of medium height, of few words, but very active." - He was what people call a crank, but as all active pro moters and enlhusiastlo advocates of re form In advance of the people are so named, it is not surprising that John Brown was thought mad. The career of John Brown was the outcome of a most cowardly deed. He had sent his 11-year-old son to the postofflce across the river. The boy was returning with the mall when he was robbed and killed. The body was tied to a tree and shot to pieces by the border ruffians, who then burned and sacked Osawatomie. Brown's home escaped destruction. When Mr. Brown heard of the death of his son he vowed vengeance, declaring he would fight slavery until the last negro was freed. He was a preachsr of the Campbellite faith and poured his wrath from the pulpit. Brown struck the system at Its heart by crossing the border Into Missouri and helping slaves to escape their masters. Three or four times he drove to tha ren dezvous in wagons with a number of his company, including Mr. Sprlggs, all armed to the teeth. Returning, they traveled only at night until they reached Gardner, a small place in the eastern part of Kan sas, where the slaves six the first time, nine the second and fourteen tho third were hidden and kept under cover for a few days until tho excitement of their escape had passed. They were then hur ried through Kansas to Spring Dale, la., where a relief party was waiting to as sist Brown and his party Into Canada. The last consignment was taken in the fall of '59. From there Brown went to Harper's Ferry, where he rented a farm under the name of Smith. In his enthusiasm he thought the slaves of the south and their northern sympathizers would rally to hint and that he would abolish slavery. . He took the arsenal, government works and bridge and arrested Colonel Washing ton and other prominent men. He wus overcome by the re-enforcements under command of Colonel Robert E. Lee. He and his little band of seventeen white men, five negroes and two sons were isptured after a desperate fight, in which both of Brown's sons were killed. He was tried at Charlestown, Va. condemned and hanged for treason and murder on December 3, ISM. Mr. Sprlggs, the last survivor of the raids, has a warm spot In his heart for his antt-slavery leader and bold defender of Justice. Aside from his activity In the raids, Mr. Sprlggs has other rcuords worthy of mention. When the ca'l for volunteers reached Kaunas Mr. Sprlggs enlibted in Company F, Eleventh Kansas cavalry, and he was no less active, energetic and brave In the defense of his country than In warfare against slavery. Most of his service during the civil war was in Missouri mid Ar kansas. Mr. Sprlggs was mustered out of the service in the fall of lb&. several months after the close of the war. Ills deepest sorrow was when his wife, Carolln Jor dan 8prigga. died in 1871. lie moved to, Illinois, and thirty years ago married Mrs. Sophia Whitney Vanetta. She la still living and the couple reside in Mattoon, spend ing their old age in the restful uuiet of n simple life. Chicago Record-Herald. Oddities of the Great.
