    END Or A MOUNTAIN-CLIMBER.
Ala-laa Aavaalara that Canae4 lb
Ialh of Pour Man.
Owen Olynne Jouea. who wan killed
with three guides while climbing the
'White Tooth" In the Alps three years
go, was one of the greatest of moun
tain climbers. The details of the ae
cldwit which end.nl his life at 32 are
recounted by Harold Spender In Mc
Clure's Magazine. Jones was a Bafe and
scientific climber, and his death was
due to no fault of his own. The five
'men. la the party, tied together with a
rope thirty feet between man and man,
proceeded in this order: The guides,
Kurrer and Zurbrlggen, first, then
Glynne Jones. Vulgnler, another guide,
and F. W. Hill, who was a schoolmas
ter like Jones, and who, like him, pur
sued mountain-climbing as a sport.
Corning to a difficult buttress ten feet
high. Kurrer, who was In advance,
could not find a hold. It was necessary
for him to mount first, and then pull the
others up when he bad secured foot
hold; so Zurbrlggen and Jones put an
he-ax under him to stand on, and
crouched down to hold It. As they
could uot see what Kurrer was doing
above them, they were unprepared for
a sudden shock.
It 1 evident that these men were de
pending on Kurrer's success in getting
the hand hold for which he was reach
lug. Mr. Hill, who was some feet be
low the group about the ice-ax, saw
rnrrer slip. He feil upon the two ob
livions men beneath him. All three
went, striking Vulgnier, who stood be
tween Hill and the three falling men.
HU1 had Instinctively turned to the
rock to get a firm hold, expecting to be
carried away with the other men; but
after a few seconds be realized that he
wa safe and alone. Looking round, he
aw his companions sliding at fatal
speed' down the rock Into the abyss.
Jietweeu him aixl the unfortunate men,
w ho were being hurled to sure death,
be saw thirty feet of rope danglng from
bis waist. The faithful Vulgnier had
fastened It to some point In the rock to
protect his master. The weight of the
tour bodies had broken the rope, and
this caved Mr. 111118 life.
After two days of hardship, climbing
lone, Mr. Hill arrived at the hotel.
The lesson here for nil climbers, those
w ho niiike a sport of it and jest with
death, und those who, In unsought
predicament, need to know how to
climb, Is this: Those men blundered
by allowing the fate of three men to
depend on one man's hnnd-hold. Again,
so far ns Is possible, every man In a
vllmbing party should know what the
Mhers are doltig, in order not to be tak--u
unawares, as were the unfortunate
men who held the ax under Kurrer's
feet.
QUEER CASE OF HYSTERIA.
Victim Wan DiM inctlr Murketl by the
Oevll (She Thought f'oueaaed Her.
A series of extraordinary events re
oetitiy took place at Kodez, France,
which have excited widespread inter
est among all cIukscs. The circum
stances were thoroughly investigated
by a representative of a Paris Journal.
The scene of the occurrence was the
wphau asylum of Grease, near Ijilssac,
aiu) they concerned a member of this
isylum, by name Sister Saint-Fleuret.
3'lie following Is the result of the In
vestigation, obtained from absolutely
creditable sources and of which he
guarantees the correctness.
There has been at the orphan asy
lum for the past twelve years a sister,
originally from the Canton of Bozouls,
who is afflicted with a species of mad
ness which makes her believe that she
is possessed by a devil; her sister su
perior, the other sisters of the asylum
and nearly all the ecclesiastics of the
rouutry have a slmiUir Iiellcf In her
miction.
The diswsc, according to the physl
?iuns, Is merely a species of hysteria;
natural prodlsKslti(n which became
cute undT the influence of the sur
rounding atmosphere. Hut the super
natural features are the result of true
iuto-suggotloii. In her paroxysms the
tuHerer utters piercing orlcs of such In
leualiy that the peasants hear them at
great distance from the convent. Dur
ing these attacks tlie patient believes
herself to be bitten or burnt by the
(evil In this or that portion of her
ody. The autosuggestion Is so strong
It these times that Immediately upon
the disappearance of the paroxysms
tlMrc is found m that iortlon of the
body where the suffering la most In
teuae, either a burn of tlie skin or the
knprtnt of teeth.
Mister Knint-Fleuret has a horror of
every religious object and the nearby
presence of a figure of Christ of a book
af devotions, or of any sacred Image
Immediately throws her into an almost
rabid At. The most curious ctreum
Itancc is that she need not see these
bjects. she feels them, she divines
them when they are brought near her
rven- though carefully hidden, and she
Immediately rushes at them to destroy.
Further, she frequently divines the
thought of persons who seak to her
uid she reHnd to them in their own
aiigiiage whatever this language may
X. Although she Is a simple peasant
vbo has never received the least edu
cation, Hlster Haliit-Klciirct III her par
ixyama speaks Greek, Italian, Russian,
tfingllsh and (ierman. She always re
raouds fluently In the language what
tver it may be In which she is ad
!r eased.
KNEW ALL THE SYMPTOMS.
Doctor Able to Make a Moat Won
dcrfal Prognoala.
One of the anecdote related by Dr.
8. Wlf Mitchell In his story, "Doctor
Mortb and HI Friends," might well be
I personal experience of the author,
roe hero. Doctor North, was traveling
from Marrtfbnrf by the night train,
-wktok wae crowded. la one of the can
lie found a man stretched across twt'
eats, asleep. He wakened blra, begged
pardon for disturbing him, and asked
for a seat. After a little time the two!
entered Into conversation.
At length the man asked, "Do you
know Dr. Owen North?"
Itather astonished, I said, "Yes."
"What kind of a man is he?"
"Oh, a very good fellow."
"He U like all them high-up doctors.
Gets big fees, doesn't he? I want to
know."
"No," said I. "That is always exag
gerated. Why do you ask?"
"Well, I've bad a lot of doctors, and I
ain't no better, and now I haven't much
money left."
Vpon this, my friend confided to me
all his physical woes In detail. We
parted before, daybre&fcu It was Ami
dark in the car for either of us to see
plainly the face of the other.
About ten the next day the man en
tered my consulting room. As I should
not have known him except for a rather
peculiar voice, I, too, remained uniden
titied. I could not resist so excellent
an opportunity. Looking at hiin, I said:
"Sit down. You have a pain In your
back."
"That's queer! I have."
"And you nre blind In the left eye,
and your digestion Is bad," and so I
went on.
At last he said, "I never saw a doctor
like you! It scares a man, 'most. Can
you cure me?"
I said, "Yes," and wrote out direc
tions. It was really a simple case.
When he produced a well-worn wallet
I declined to take a fee, and said:
"I owe you for the seat and the good
sleep I disturbed last night."
"Well, I declare! I see, now! You
were the man. But law! why did you
give it away? I'd have sent you tho
whole township."
PRALINES OF NEW ORLEANS.
Delicious Candy Which la Bold on the
Rtreeta of Old Town.
"Among me toothsome memories of
bygone years nothing in the form of
sweets or candy appeals so keenly to
the Ixulslanlan as the praline," says
Roliert Mitchell Kloyd, according to the
New York Mall and Express. "A stran
ger visitiug the city and desiring to
find some of this diiinty would proba
bly go to the first confectioner's shop
to be waved out of tlie door by the
hand of the French maiden In attend

streets!)
"The manufacturing of the real pra
lines seems to be tlie accepted right of
the descend ants of the old Indians
whose blood has been Intermingled
with French negroes. The candy is
always curried about in the morning,
freshly made, on small neatly covered
trays by men only.
"In tlie making of tho praline the In
dian obtains from the hogshead of mo
lasses the sugar that has granulated
from the liquid and been preciptated
to the bottom. This is flavored more
highly than the ordinary sugar-house
product, ami when rebolled and cooled
lms a most attractive and delicious
taste of Its own. I'ecan nuts are care
fully cracked and taken from their
shells so that the two halves of the
nut are unbroken. The boiling thick
sugar Is then poured out on a flat stone
In little puddles of about three Inches
in diameter, Into the surface of which
the pecan nut meats are carefully
bunched in conical heaps, with Just
enough of the hot liquid sugar added
to hold them in place."
Scientific Agriculture.
Secretary Wilson believes that not
enough attention is paid to scientific
agriculture by the colleges of to-day,
and he has taken up the agitation of
this matter as a hobby. Wherever he
makes a speech he tells his hearers that
his department utilizes the services of
every young man It can find who has
had a thorough training In some branch
of scientific agriculture. There Is a
great demand for this kind of service,
and the department has the utmost dif
ficulty In holding on to Its experts be
cause of the growing outside calls that
are being made on them. There are
about two thousand people In the De
partment of Agriculture who are en
gages! on scientific agricultural work,
yet hardly one of them came Into the
government service fully equipped. Sec
retary Wilson calls attention to this
fact to emphasize his statement that
the college should give more thought
and attention to the development of
agricultural sciences. There are some
fifty agricultural colleges In the coun
try calling for competent teachers, and
some sixty or seventy agricultural ex
periment stations, where there Is al
ways an opening for a trained scientist
There is money In becoming an agricul
tural expert, and Secretary Wilson
thinks that our young men would do
well to choose such a profession rather
than the overcrowded fields of luw and
medicine. Brooklyn Eagle.

IN CHICAGO GRAIN
DURING the last days of sum
mer wheat and oats pour into
the grain elevators of Chicago
at a great rate. The grain doesn't all
stay there by any means. There
wouldn't be room for it. Trains are
constantly lacking Into the elevators
BJid boats pulling up to their side to
fake on loads of tlie grain and trans
port the cereals eastward. Chicago is
the chief depot of the country for mak
ing; thetransfer . from the producing
points to those where the grains are to
he prepared for consumption.
Most of the great elevators of the
city are located where they can be
reached by both water and rail, for
white the heavy receipts come by rail
the most of the big shipments out of
the city go by boat. If the Chicago el
vators were divided Into stories, as are
ordinary buildings, they would be from
ten to fifteen stories In height. Most
of them have narrow upper sections
only about half as wide as are the
main portions. These higher portions
re used for machinery and grain trans
ferring devices, so there Is uo need for
as great width as the lower floors,
where the grain Is stored In bins.
When a tralnload of grain arrives at
an elevator the cars to be unloaded
are backed right Into the elevator on
a track that runs down the center of
tlie building. At frequent Intervals
along the floor there are trap doors
down which the grain may be emptied.
The boxcar la stopped with Its side
door opposite one of tlie traps. The
nr door Is entered and a man with a
steam shovel climbs intilde. A steam
shovel is made of Itoards fastented to
gether and Is about three feet wide by
four in length. N-ar the top are two
handles by which the workman may
pull it about. On the opposite side and
near the bottom of the shovel are fas
tened the two ropes which by menus of
steam power pull the shovel forward
.neb time after the workman sinks It
.lowu Into the wheat. As the shovel
lowers the wheat lu the car the work
man removes, one after OJiother, the
Hide board which were placed one
above tlie other In the car door to hold
the wheat while It was being trans
ported In the car.
As the wheat is thus being shoveled
jut of the car and down Into u re
ceiving bin below the floor, the machin
ery Is sturted which operates a trans
fer belt that moves through tills re
ceiving blu. The belt la fitted with
cups which 1111 themselves as they pass
through the grain. Up, up mount these
cups on the belt until they reach tlie
top floor of the elevator, perhaps 100
ur 170 feet above the point where they
ire sturted. Here aa the belt turns
lu the descent the cupa empty their
loads of grain into bins which are to
hold the cereal but temporarily. With
hutes at their bottom these tempo
ary bins are connected with the weigh
ing bins on the floor Just below. The
weigher, by a system of levers con
trolling a cutoff, drawn Into the In-
losed weighing bin as much wheat
us he pleuw-s. When the yard rises In
dicating that the amount of grain for
which lie gauged the scales has poured
into the bins he cuts off the stream
-ill records the amount which has been
'i'lghid.
Ity4aiiother lever the platform of the
enlcs can be oH'iied and the wheat
Imppcd Into a clinic which lends to
he floor below. Here a unique contrlv
.nee curries tlie grain to any of the
toroge bins desired. Two wide rub
ber belts, full three and a half feet
iriMid, extend from one end of the
ong building to the other. Tho chutea
rom the various weighing bin depend
list above one or the other of these
hells. The belt are operated on roll-

ers which curve up In such a way at
their ends that the lelt is made to
curve up In a corresponding way at
the edges. On each side of the belt
mi the surface of the floor Is the rail
of a track which extends the full
length of the belt. At various point
along the floor are openings Into the
bins below. To get the grain, which
has been dropped from the weighing
bin chutes to these flying belts, into
the lower bins requires the use of still
another unique device which runs od
this track. This device is a receive
for the grain, and into this receive!
the grain is thrown from the belt. Long
chutes lead from these storage bins te
tlie places where the cars or boats
come to be loaded.
In an elevator vicited by a newspaper
correspondent there were eight mov
able chutes leading from as many bin
to the pier of the ship, where the boatt
came alongside to receive their car
goes. The elevator hud a capacity ol
almost 2,000,000 of grain, and tb
eight bins for loading boats each had
a capacity of 5,000 bushels. The fore
man In charge of the ship loading ba!
an arrangement for telling how inufl
grain there was in the bin, which mad
it unnecessary for anyone to visit tin
bin and sec how big a supply It con.
talned. A rope reached over a pulley
and Into the storage bin. A heavy
weight was attached to the end In tb
bin. The other end of the rope reach
ed to the first floor of the elevator.
Various marks were on the wull and
at the side of each, such and such s
number of bushels of grain was mark
ed down, the larger numbers being to
ward the liottom. A knot was tied it
the rope and when a test was made bj
loosening the rope and letting down
the weight to the surface of the grain
the foreman could tell Just how muct
remained lu the bin. By ropes th
workman could also open or close 8
valve, shutting off the grain or lettlni
It flow down the chute from the bit
Into a bout. When being filled the boal
comes alongsido the pier and bei
hatches are opened and as manj
chuts as can be used which Is, o)
course, determined by the length ol
the vessel are placed In operation
The chutes can be swung about from
side to side, and there have been In
stances In which six of them wer
employed at one time In sending grail

lkwu the center of the elevator It
a second truck on which is run In tlx
freight cars to be loaded with grain.
Cars are filled In a way somewhat sim
ilar to boats, but one double-kneed
chute Is used for each car. The car li
rolled under the bin which Is to b
emptied. A swinging chute connectec
with the bin Is pulled up to the sld
of the car. At the end of tlie chut
is a double spout, tlie ends being
slightly turned to one side so that thej
will go into the door of the car, and
pointing almost In opposite directions
so that they will spread the wheat af

Much attention has been attracted in
England, and some apprehension arous
ed, by the discovery of cracks in the

think that the opening of underground
railways and sewers in the neighbor
hood of the great structure Is respon
sible for the damage. One of the sug
gested methods to secure the safety of
the cathedral, at a cost of about $1,000,

carrying them down about thirty-five
feet to the solid blue clay which under

The remarkable fact that the earliest
known ancestor, or primitive type, of
the modern whale bore heavy armor
;m its back, in the form of strong, bony
plates, has recently lieen set forth by
the German paleontologist. Dr. O.
Alx'l. The plates occasionally found
associated with remains of the prime
val form of whale, the extinct zeuglo
dou, have generally been regarded as
having belonged to gigantic turtles, but
Dr. Abel shows that they were part
of the skeleton of the zcuglodon itself.
They resemble In their character the
Impenetrable bony shells of the huge
glyptodonts that formerly inhabited
South America. The suggestion is made
that at the time when they carried ar
nor whales were amphibious creatures,
living on the coasts and needing special
protection from breakers and from
sharks.
Colors are an interesting feature of
bacteria lo which M. Henri Coupiu has
been giving special attention. Many of
the bacteria produce coloring matter,
and most of these are themselves col
ored, the pigment being within the or
ganism, but there are colorless mi
crobes, like the green-staining bacillus
fluorescens, that spread color Into the
surrounding medium. The colors are
produced in light or darkness, oxygen
being necessary and heat unfavorable.
The best known of the color-forming
bacilli is bacillus prodigiosus, whose
beautiful red colonies often appear on
foodstuffs, like bread, and form the
spots of "blood" once supposed to be
of uiiracul.us origin. Also familiar is
the bacillus syncyauus, giving the pe
culiar appearance to "blue milk." The
bacillus polychromogenes of wells and
conduits Is noteworthy for Its produc
tion under usual conditions of blue, vio
let, red, green, yellow and various spec
tral shades, and, on solid media, of a
beautiful indigo blue. The purple bac
teria differ from others In causing tlie
phenomena of assimilation, and they

SHARED FATE OF LOT'S WIFE.
A Mun and His Ilurro Turned to Hock
Halt In the Colorado Ueaert.
George H. Tucker, a mining prospec
tor, recently returned from a trip
through the Mojav and Colorado des
erts, tells a remarkable story of tlie
discovery of a petrified man and burro
In one of the large salt fields that
abound there. He says:
"One of the most desolate places In
the Colorado desert is thirty-two miles
southeast of Danby. Here is a large
deposit of rock suit fifteen miles in
length and from one and one-half to
three miles In width. There Is ;iot a
spear of grass or any kind of vegeta
tion. In many places the rock salt
crops out of the earth, and anywhere
In this section rock salt can be obtain
ed by digging ten or twelve Inches.
No one knows how deep the salt goes.
A number of prospect holes have been
sunk, but the great amount of water
encountered at a depth of twenty-five
or thirty feet makes further mining
Impossible without apparatus for
pumping. Some ten years ago an effort
was made to bring this Immense de
posit of salt Into commercial use. Two
railroads were built to connect the
rock quarries with the Santa Fe. It
was found necessary to build a house
In the middle of the deposit, and for
this purpose enough blocks of rock salt
were cut to build a shanty 14x,'W i'eet
In dimensions. A flooring and roof
composed of the peculiar kind of earth
that exists In that vicinity completed
the building. This salt house was
used for the purpose for which It was
erected. But in a short time the salt
mining operations were discontinued,
and the salt, bouse was abandoned to
the coyote and desert owl.
"For at least seven years before we
visited this building, about a month
ngO',' It had not been Inhabited, and
nrobahly very seldom seen by any one.
During the snmnier months In this lo
.in1lty tine saline dust Is blown In great
olouds through the desert. The heat I
almost unbearable. Whit water la
found ! undrlokable, and woe to th
prospector who finds hlmaaif la tibia
aectlon with an empty canteen. A pe
culiar feature of the climate If that;
no matter how hot the day, the ulgbt
la Invariably cool, even cold enough for
forming Ice.
"During the summer of 1900 a Swede
named Johnson, who had been pros
pecting In the vicinity, started to cross
this dry lake of salt to Old Woman's
Springs. When nearly half way across
a terrible sandstorm blew up. He
trudged on until be came to the sail
house, where he and bis burro sough!
shelter. Under the eaves of the houn
he found a number of galvanized tanks,
partly filled with rain water. He con
sidered this a lucky find, for his can
teen was almost empty. He drank hit
fill of the water he found and per
mitted his burro to do the same, Th
night was cold and the storm con
tinued. He determined to camp in th
hut over night The dead erobera ol
the fire were still to be seen when wi
visited the place, evidencing the un
usual severity of the weather.
"When we opened tbe door to' toil
desolate shack we were horrified at
seeing what seemed to be a marbU
statue lying on the floor. The bead
was of alabaster whiteness, the hull
and whiskers having fallen away. Th
body was outlined under a thhi blan
ket The sight was so uncanny thai
we hesitated to remove the blanket
but finally mustered enough eouragi
to do so. The body had undergone ft
singular transformation, being nothing
less than complete petrification. Tb
substance was of a nature of gypsum,
very friable and pure white In color.
The outline of the body was perfect
"The darkness of the Interior at first
prevented us from seeing the burro,
which was standing in one corner. On
of our party advanced and la Id bit
band on the animal, when it fell ovel
against him. The burro bad under
gone the same transformation as Itf
master. The body of the man wai
given a decent burial near the house,
and the burro will be sent to tht
Smithsonian Institution.
'The explanation of this strange pbe
nomenon is to be found in the kind ol
water that was drunk by the man and
the burro and in the kind of earth thai
composed the roof and floor of the salt
habitation. The water is heavily
charged with chloride of sodium. Th
earth that had been used for the roof
ing contained chemicals which were
taken in solution by the rain water aJ
it dripped through the galvanised
tanks.
"After drinking freely of this watel
the man and his beast had evidently
frozen to death and were gradually
petrified."
The Choice or Two Kvils.
An ominous silence greeted Bobbyi

"Ahem:" began mamma. Bobbj

"Ahem! Don't you know, Bobby,

Bobby pretended to find a point ol

"Haven't I told you, Bobby, that it't

Thus challenged Bobby fell back oi

"He hit me first, mamma," be plead
