Quail bunting still goes on to some
extent, the expiration » of the
killing limit to the contrary
not with standing. Quails, from
January till November, are not legally
huntable. But of coarse when the boys
are hunting for mbits it is a strong
temptation to let drive at whatever
jumps up whether quail or otherwise.
About the only way the gainq laws will
be obeyed is to extinguish the game.

Word comes from the Wyoming
ranges that a deadly disease has broken
out among cattle. In many respects it
resembles human diptheria and it is
nearly always fatal. The throat swells
up and mucus forms, which usually re
sults in strangulation. It is believed by
the state veterinarian that tbe disease
was started by tbe warm days and cold
nights. The disease is being watched
very close, but it is believed that it will
be difficult to stop. It is hoped that
cold weather will stop its spreading.
A poultry itetn: it has been estimated
that there are about three hundred and
flftv million hens in the United States.
During the year 1900 they produced ap*
proximately fourteen billion eggs, which
represent in the neighborhood of $175,
000.000. That seems a lot of money,
bin just wait a minute. The living val
tie of bens at 30 cents apiece is not far
from *100,000.000. besides which about
*130,000,000 worth of poultry is eaten in
tt>is country in the course of a year.
So vou see the ben, while a humble
bird cuts quite a figure in the financial
world.
Ano'ent Archives.
While repairing the tower of an old
church at Cassonay, near Lausanne, a

then raging in Switzerland. The other
manuscripts are written in French and
bear the date of 1703. They have been
forwarded to the museum at Berne to
be carefully examined.

Things Which X-Ray Cannot See.
There are many curious things about
X-raya which seem to puzzle even the
scientists. Signor Brlguitl, who has
been making experiments with them at
Rome, says that the visibility of a sub
stance to the eye la no criterion of its
visibility to the X-rays. The rays can
not see through glass, which is trans
parent to the eye, whereas aluminum,
which is opaque to the eye, is trans
parent to the X-rays. The rays can
see a splinter of glass in the hand, but
not a splinter of od. Most inkB are
transparent to the X-rays, including
printer’s ink, but some of them are
opaque. The raye can see through a
postoffice directory, but if a paper with
wordB written on it be put in the mid
dle of the directory the rays will re-,
veal these words and nothing behind
Jthem.

Death from Direr** Paralysis.
A rather peculiar fatality occurred
the other day at Lamlash in the island
of Arran, where the reserve squadron
was stationed for a week. A torpedo
was lost from the battleship Howe in
about twenty fathoms of water, and a
diver was sent down to search for it
On his return to the surface he war
apparently well, but he suddenly be
came ill and died within an hour. A
post mortem examination disclosed the
fact that death had been due to a very
rare ailment known In the medical
profession as caisson disease or diver’s
paralysis, which only occurs when the
pressure under which a diver works Ir
more than three atmospheres and gen
erally follows a rapid rise to the sur
face. There were bubbles of gas In the
blood vessels, heart and brain tissue.—

Growth of a Giant,
A woman has just died in New Jer

Britain to a position second to no na

patriotic Americans to be proud of.—
