Cxpcrt. in Handwriting Are Able to
Rend Many ISmu.
"I am not an expert in chirogrnphy,
int 1 have at least made enough of a
ftnd.v of handwriting to tell why It is
jften easy to detect the forgery of a
name, though even the man whose
tame has been forged may declare the
handwriting a perfect replica of his
iwn." Arnold Keating says: "Of
Kiurse, you know everybody know?,
for that matter that a man or woman
'.ever writes his name twice exactly
n the same way. There Is always a
light difference, and where two signa
lling of the same name appear identi
cally alike It is safe to assume that
)ne or liolh is a forgery. But suppose
Hie signature has been forged but
we, suppose the handwriting of
ivlilch it Is nn exact copy has been do
.trnved or ! not obtainable, of what
avail is the comparative method then?
Hie exact comparison cannot be em
ployed, but other almost infallible
.comparisons are still available. When
i child Is taught how to write, nt first
Its penmanship is severely stiff and
Tamped; then it becomes very much
ike Hint In the copybook, but after
lids Is discarded the child's character
lieginn to creep into its hand writing,
l'h ere are little idiosyncrasies appar
ent that tire not to be found In the
:hirography of other children, and this
manifestation of character in writing
rontinues to change It with develop
ment until itbout the age of 25, when
A person's charm-tor is fixed end his
handwriting from that time on eon
Ihiues about the same. The forger's
-.'iip.v of the signature or riling will
dppear to be exactly like that of th-j
man, but when examined under a
Imwerful microscope, the liny evi
lenees of character that appear in ev
ery loop nnil line will be found to be
largely inl-'Sing. for the same character
Is not behind the pen. it Is In the
minute details thai, the forgery is dis
(ovcred. Then, again, n man's mental
rendition will impress Itself upon his
writing. If he Is' nervous, bubbling
over with joy or depressed, the fact
will be apparent to the expert In writ
ing. If tho alleged handwriting doesn't
iliow traces of the mental condition
tbe innn was really in at the time he
was supposed to have written a eer
xin letter or signed a certain letter, the
signature or the writing is a forgery.

CINEMATOGRAPH OF HORRORS.

The parent tif Lr. SamoiiofT. ho
was wilii the field hospital afler tht
battle of Kiulencheng. have received
lat Moscow) a letter from their s-o'i,
giving an aiipaiiiug description of his
work.
"It was not a hospital, but a sham
bles, and afier the tirst hour's work
it wemed us that we were not min
isters of mercy but demons of blood,
working frantically, recklessly, callou
to pain and life.
"The stream of pierced and shatter
ed bodies poured in so fast that we
handled them as Indifferently as sacks
of flour. As we hacked and sawed
lor it was not surgery, but hurried
bungling I counted the writhing row
on the floor, praying that it might get
less, but for every one maimed and
bandaged man borne to his couch two
were carried in and cast on the ground.
At lust my brain, di..y in a mist of
blood, pictured the whole universe as
nothing but a string of clotted isidics
stretching to infinity.
"Yes. I iidniit that we were calloui.
So petrifying to the sensibilities is thin
hurried work of blood that some of us
jokinl like fiends over our atrocious
task. The hospital servants who car
ried out the bankets of amputated
limbs bantered one another. "That is
retrusha'a leg.' said one. T know his
toenails. 'That's no Christian leg.'
replied ills companion: 'it's a Jew's.'
"(hie of these clumsy fellows slipped
in the blood and sent a streaming arm
in the face of a boy lieutenant, who
screamed with fright. But at the time
even this seemed humorous, not horri
ble. "Sometimes the shells fell near our
tent, and we wondered if we too
would lie laid in th:it eternally grow
ing row, and whether some one. callous
ns ourselves, would remove our ampu
tuted Ihnlis mid speculate as to their
ownership.
"What made things worse was tlm
deficiency of anaesthetics and Imn
riiigpK. Before we were half way
through we had torn up our shirts.
Luckily more bandages arrived before
the end." London News of the AVorld.
A Cabtn Full of Cuckoos.
An old prospector who. between bin
periods of gold-hunting, has made his
home In a little cabin in a lonely can
yon a few miles from Is Angeles,
Cal., says the Detroit News-Tribune,
has discovered not only gold, .but a
continuous entertainment for the hours
he must spend indoors.
About; six months ago the prospector
"struck it rich." He was able to show
such assays f the ores in his claim
that a party of capitalists purehnsed
his property and paid him forty thou
sand dollars.
On receipt of the money tho prospec
tor visited Los Angeles. Among other
places he went into a restaurant iu
which is a cuckoo clock. It was just
the noon hour, tmd the clock uttered
Its cuek(M) notes twelve timis in suc
cession. The old prospector was charm
ed, lie remained in the eating house
nearly all the afternoon, listening to
the music of the clock, which also an
nounced the quarter and half hours.
He learned from the proprietor the
name of the firm of which the clock
had been purchased, and hastened to
the shop. He wanted a clock, which
would cuckoo every Ave minutes. Not
being able to find this kind, he did a
little mental problem, and devised a
plan for "continuous performance." He
bought a dozen of the ordinary cuckoo
clocks, and took them to his lonely
cabin.
Tin? cabin Is no longer loimly. lie
has set the clocks at different times in
five-minute sequence, so that with the
voicing of the hours and quarter hours
there is scarcely a moment of the day
in which a cuckoo is not singing in th
cabin.
Projectile. We Use.
We have now armor-piercing pro
jectiles, deck-piercing projectiles, semi-armor-piercing
projectiles, common
forged and cast steel projectiles, cast
iron projectiles, shrapnel, and so on,
in endless variety. As the work tho
gun, whether ashore or afloat, will
have to do can be pretty clearly pre
dicted, it would appear us though one,
or at most two, kinds of projectiles
were enough. These two would natu
rally have, the one a high penetrative
power, and the other a large capacity
for Internal charge, giving great de
structive power when the shell is
burst. No one who has not examined
carefully the effect of bursting a shell
in a closwl space can have nn idea of
its destructiveness. A small six
pounder shell, of about two and tir.e
quarter inches diameter, containing
three or four ounces of powder, burst
iu an ordinary room and breaking
Into twenty or thirty fragments, would
