THAT POUND OF FEATHERS.
Selentlflo Demonstration That It I
Heavier Than the Pound of Lead.
A famous old cntch rjuesUon for
unwary boys in, "Which 13 heavier, a
pound of feathers or a pound of
lead?'' Of course the unwary boys
answer, "A pound of lead," and then
everybody inughs, for how can a
pound of one thing bo heavier than
a pound of pome other thing? But
the people that do the laughing aro
just as much in error as the boys
are, only it is the other way about,
for n pound of feathers is, as a mat
ter of fact, heavier than a pound of
lead.
Here is the way to demonstrate it:
With perfectly accurate scales weigh
a pound of lead, using ordinary shot
for convenience. With the Bame
wales weigh a pound of feathers,
putting them in a inuslin bag for
the purpopo and being very careful
that tho bag and the feathers to
gether weigh exactly one pound.
I'lace the shot in one pan of a bal
ance and the bag of feathers in tho
other, and they will prppently come
to an exact level. Thus it seems
that they weigh exactly the same.
Hut a different state of things is
shown if tho balance, with the shot
and feathers undisturbed, bo placed
on the receiver of an air pump and
covered with the glass bell jar.
When the air has been exhausted,
the feathers will sink and the shot
will go up, thus showing that tho
feathers are the heavier.
Tho explanation is that no ac
count has been taken of tho bucanfc
power of the air, which bears every
thing up in proportion to the thing's
bulk. - As the bag of feathers is of
greater bulk than the shot, it is sup
ported by the air to a greater extent
than the shot, and it therefore. takes
more than a pound of feathers to
balanco a pound of lead. In the air
pump, however, there is no such
support, and the difference- is at onco
apparent.
Fully Prepared.
"Mr. Smidlong," began tho youth,
hanging Ins hat on tho back of his
chnir, "I will occupy only a few mo
ments of your time. I have come to
ask you for your daughter. 1"
"Young man," said the elderly
banker, "do you"
"Yes, sir, I fully realize that she
has been tenderly nurtured and that
she is very dear to you; also that her
homo is one in which she has been
surrounded by every luxury. Hut
she is willing to leave it." '
, "Can you"
"Xo, sir; I cun't quite maintain
her in the style to which she has
been accustomed, but I have a gooc
salary, and I'm ready to chance it.
So is' she."
"Will you"
"Yes, sir, I will keep' my life in
sured for a sum sufficient to provide
for her if 1 should bo taken away."
"Would you"
"Xo, sir, I would not expect to
live with the family. I am ablo to
buy and furnish a modest home for
her."
"Young man," said Mr. Spudlong,
looking at his watch, "I rather like
vour style. You can have her.
Good"
"Morning, sir." Chicago Trib
une. Senator Call's Select Audience.
It has passed into history that
lion. Wilkinson Call of Florida,
though for three terms a United
States senator and highly honored
by his state, did not mako a great
impression on the senate as a spcak
er and that ho thus disappointed all
those who have tho tradition in their
mind9 that all southern statesmen
are orators.
Senator Call, it is said, once aroso
to make a speech when the senate
chamber was rather empty. As he
spoke the few members of tho sen
ate who were there filed out to get
luncheon. No one remained on the
floor to listen to the speech. But
tho president of the senate still sat
in his place, dignilied and calm.
Tho galleries wero also rather
empty, and the incident becamo the
subject of Washington gossip. At
a dinner party where a southern pol
itician was a guest it was asked what
he thought of the southern senator's
audience when he made his speech in
tho senate- that morning.
Then came a clever answer, for
the southern man said, with a grave
face: "I thought it a very distin
guished audience. There was no
person there of less rank than the
f ice president of tho United States."

It was a very pretty prospect that
confronted Miss 'Susan Galton
Brown. Tho scattering vhito homes
among the trees in tho vallf', the
bluo hills beyond with their fringes
of pine trees, tho clear sky that was
such a novelty to the girl from tho
great manufacturing town it was
all bright and fresh and so delight
fully clean. Miss Susan Galton
Brown looked back on the peaceful
prospect for a lingering moment or
two and then pressed ahead up tho
mountain road.
She certainly was an unusual fig
ure for that quiet neighborhood.
Attired in a close fitting suit of
gray, with a Bhort walking skirt and
a wide brimmed gray felt hat that
concealed her beautiful hair, sho
might at a distance, save for tho
skirt, have been taken for an ex
tremely handsomo boy. Her ' trait
would have carried out tho impres
sion tlicro was such an uncon
strained swing to it but her high
boots were not a boy's boots, and her
hands were neatly gloved. - Miss Su
san Galton Brown carried some-"
thing under her arm. It was a light
magazine rifle, tho gift of an ador
ing father; for sho could shoot and
fish and swim and run and do it all
in a way that met that adoring fa
ther s critical approval, and thcro
wasn't a better authority on these
manlv attributes in all tho country
round. s
In short, Miss Susan Galton
Brown, so her father declared,
Bhould have been born a boy, but as
that couldn't bo she certainly was,
as far as the shooting and fishing
went, an admirable substitute. Nat
urally Susan was an only child. She
never would have benefited by all
these advantages if she had not
been. She had minor talents, of
course an education rounded off
in a finishing school, a pleasing
smattering of music, a taste for art
that was only second to her taste
for nature. But all these were quite
dwarfed, in her daddy's opinion, by
those manlier attributes that he so
assiduously cultivated. She was his
companion on long hunting and
fishing trips and an ideal companion
at that. "By Jove," ho would say,
ue couliln t ho improved upon!
She never grumbles at her luck and
never growls at me for dragging her
to places where game never runs and
fish never bite. Sho is one girl in
ten thousand.
It is needless to say that quiet
Elmwood looked upon this accom
plished young woman with a very
doubtful expression. Sho was a lit
tle too advanced that was the term
they used for Elmwood's old fash
ioned ideas of maidenly modesty.
The mothers of Elmwood held her
up as an examplo of tho baneful
coming woman, and tho girls of
Elmwood thought her dreadfully
bold and secretly envied her. As
for the men well, there were but
few of them in Elmwood whose
opinion was worth recording, and of
these a mere handful dared to ex
press an honest opinion in the face
of the universal feminine condem
nation. Of these independent souls
it must be admitted that Mr. John
Cortwright stood first and foremost.
If Mi:s Susan Galton Brown knew
of tho unfavorable light in which
her short 8kirt and her Teddy hat
had pieced her, and there is no
doubt she did, the matter failed to
worry her m tho least. She had
come down to Elmwood to stay a
month with her maiden aunt her
dead mother's only 6ister who liv
ed in the big white mansion on
Main street, just beyond the Bap
tist meeting house. It was this fond
aunt who hnd invited Jack Cort
wright to call, and, although this
was a particular youth, with high
idials of womanhood, ho cal'.ed
ain and again and again. What
wtos strange about it, too, was that
Jock hailed from tho east and from
Puritan surroundings at that. Yet
with all this discreet bringing up ho
certainly was fascinated with tho
wild western hoiden.
They all said that Jack Cort
wright was a rising young man.
Boston capitalists had sent him,
fresh from college, to the western
town to h'ok after their interests
in certain undeveloped coal mining
property that lay a few miles norlh
of Elmwood. and Jac k had taken olf
his coat metaphorically and gone to
work to develop it. There was plen
ty, of capital behind him, and be '
had built a railway branch to the
mine and started a bank in Elm
wood, of which he was temporary
cashier, and stirred tho little town
into making certain improvement.?
that had long been discussed. In
short, Jack Cortwright was recog
nized even by tliosf) who didn't ap
prove of hia revolutionary tuetics to
to he the liveliest factor of prog
ress tho aleepy little hamlet had
ever known.
Mis3 Susan Gulton Brown had
poor success that bright October
afternoon. She didn't rouse a soli
tary rabbit. But, after all, it was
tho tramp he was after rather thai)
tho game. Still sho must have a
shot at something. So she pinned
a brilliant leaf to a treo trunk and
at 20-paces split it at the first trial.
Miss Susan Galton Brown smiled
with satisfaction and gathered up
lhg target. She would, send it. to
dnil'lvTiTiit evr iiiiig wliTi a long" let
ter tvfie nit-nut to write. It woiiid he
particularly long because sho in
tended to tell him about Jack. And
hero sho blushed a little a femi
nine? failing that she hadn't quite
eradicated.
The sun was still high above tho
hills when she started to return to
her aunt's. As she went down the
old 6tate road a sudden clattering
caused her to turn her head. Threo
men mounted on powerful horses
came trotting down the slope. . Su
san stepped asido to lei them pass,
and one of the horses, catching
sight of her, suddenly sprang asido
and almost unseated his rider. Su
san looked up anxiously and saw,
to her astonishment, that tho man's
heavy beard was twisted very much
to one side. But ho quickly regain
ed his scat, with an oath, and, strik
ing tho. horse, clattered after his
companions. Susan wondered why
the man was disguised and dimly
fancied that tho three rough looking
strangers were up to somo mischief.
But sho was thinking of Jack the
next moment, and tho strange inci
dent was shelved.
A few moments of brisk walking
brought her to the brow of the hill
where the road turned sharply and
ran at an oblique along tho side of
the steep descent. Susan seated
herself on a log and looked down
into the village, which lay, as it
were, at her very feet. She traced
tho one long street of tho hamlet,
which was but a continuation of the
highway, and followed its dusty line
past her aunt's trim home, arid the
littlo park, with its soldiers' mon
ument, and the town hall and then
along to the bank Jack's hank
and there her gazo rested.
Miss Susan's eyes were good ones,
and the air was very clear. She saw
a horseman sitting in his saddle at
the bank door. lie was holding the
bridles of two riderless horses. Even
.as sho noted this the two riders
rushed from the building and leap
ed into their saddles. There were
puffs of white smoke and sharp dot
onations. Susan could see people
running in wild confusion. Then
the three riders started at a sharp
canter up the road. Every dozen
yards or so one would turn in his
saddle and fire down the roadway.
Susan knew what this strange
scene incur t. It was a daylight bank
robbery one of a scries that had
terrorized all the countryside dur
ing the past summer. The three
robbers were retreating with their
plunder. What had happened in
the bank? Why was Jack not pur
suing them ? She suddenly turned
sick and cold.
Then an indescribable impulse
seized her. Sho let herself over the
edge of the bank and began a mad
scramble down tho steep declivity.
She meant to intercept the ruffians..
She slid, she stumbled, once she fell,
hut she never let go her hold on her
precious rifle. And then, as the
earth suddenly seemed falling away
from her, sho reached the level
ground in a confused heap. But
sho was up on her feet in a moment.
The highway was directly before
her. Tho robbers wero cantering
by. The man in tho rear was the
man with tho beard, and ho had a
coarse bag flung across the saddle
before him. lie was directly oppo
site Susan as she plunged down to
tho edge of the roadway. Ho must
have taken her for an enemy, for his
glittering revolver flew up, and ho
fired in her direction quite at ran
dom. Susan felt a sudden twitch at
her broad brimmed hat and quickly
dropped behind some bushes that
lined the roadway. The- barrel of
her rifle rose. Tho robber was rap
idly increasing tho distance between
them. Could she shoot this man in
cold blood? She had him covered.
A moment more and it might bo too
late. She thought of Jack and fired.
The horse of the fleeing man sud
denly leaped to one side and flung
his rider heavily to the earth. As
ho went down he dragged the bag of
plunder with him. The riderless
liorse galloped after his companions.
Then Susan Galton Brown sprang
into the roadway and fired five shots
in rapid succession after the two
horsemen. She did not aim to hit
them, but rather to frighten them
away. They hesitated a moment
and then dashed madly ahead, the
riderless horse galloping in the rear.
Susan ran forward to the pros
trate man. lie was unconscious.
Sho stooped over him for a moment
and then drew away the coarse bag.
As she suspected, it was half filled
with currency. Sho shuddered as
she looked vt tho livid face of the
ruffian and then at the blood that
was slowly saturating hia coat
sleeve. Sho began to feel a little
faint.
Sho was aroused by the sound of
wheels and the shouting of a man.
A light phaeton was coming toward
her. In a moment she recognized
the driver as tho Ideal livery 6table
proprietor. lie leaped out' beside
her.
"Nailed him, didn't you?" he
Bhouted in a paroxysm of excite
ment. "I was just ready to drive
out of my stable when they pelted
by. As I got into tho roadway I
$aw you blazin away. Kill him?"
"bo," said Susan; "ho is stunned
by the fall from his horse. I only
aimed to breuk his shoulder." Sho
was astonished at the steadiness of
her voice.
"You done it oil right I" cried tho
liveryman. "By Goorge," he shriek
ed, "it's Jim Bttscom himself 1"
Susan felt her head going round.
YMr.-Tompkins," she said, "will
ydi kindly drive mo to the bank as
quickly as you can f"
"Yes, ma'am, I will," he replied,
withaeat Mcurtiuebit "You've mi
tho ruff. there, havo you? .Jump
in."
And a moment later they wero
speeding toward the bank. They
had not gone 20 yards when they
met the first group of hastily armed
men who wero on tho trail of tho
robbers.
"You'll find Jim Basoom lyin up
there," shouted the liveryman. "Sho
shot him, an we've got the bank
stuff all here!" And he touched up
his horse again. And the next
group heard the same story and tho
next and the next, and they all turn
ed and stared after blushing Susan
Brown.
And then they were at tho hank.
There was a littlo crowd about tho
door, but they quickly made way
for Susan r.nd the liveryman anil
the precious bag.
And there was Jack sitting up in
a big chair, and somebody win bath- !
ing his head, and he was blinking
queerly, like a man slowly waking
up, hut ho suddenly seemed to re
gain his faculties when Susan
Brown, forgetful of all eyes about
her, suddenly dropped on her knees
besido him and put up her loving
arms and cried, "Oh, Jack I"
"Why, Susan, dear I" murmured
Jack. "There, there, don't worry.
I'm just a littlo dazed. One of those
cowards hit mo over the head with
something from behind and stunned
me. I'm almost all right again."
."Oh, Jack," moaned iisusan Brown,
"I I thought they might have kill
ed you, and and I shot the man
and and and got tho money bac'k
oh, oh, oh!" And here poor Su
san quite broke down and, putting
her face against Jack's rough coat,
sobbed convulsively. And Mr. Tomp
kins told what he knew.and then tho
astonished and delighted Jack turn
ed the recovered treasure over to
his assistant, who had been tempo
rarily absent at the time of the at
tack, and, borrowing tho happy Mr.
Tompkins' phaeton, drove Susan to
her aunt's.
"Oh, Jack," she murmured on the
way, "it was so unwomanly and so
coldblooded!"
"I'm afraid it was, my dear," said
Jack in a painfully solemn voice.
"But as it savpd the bank in which
I am intimately interested $37,000
in cold cash and at the sumo time
appears to have broken up the most
desperate gang of thieves the state
has ever known I fear I must con
done the fault. But you will prom
ise not to do it again, won't you,
dear?"
And Miss Susan Galton Brown
promised. Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The littlo goldfish, the pet of the
household aquariums, never goes to
sleep. In this respect the pike and
salmon are his equals. They are as
alert for their prey in the ocean as
the goldfish is for tho crumbs that
are fed him from household tables.
In his native element the goldfish
forages for himself and has his eyes
open all the time. There are some
goldfish in Washington which have
belonged to tho same family for the
last 50 years, and- they seem no big
ger and no less vivacious today than
they did when they first came into
the owner's possession. A few of
the fish in tho imperial aquarium
at St. Petersburg aro known to be
150 years old, and the ago of tho sa
cred fish in some of tho pond at
tached to the temples in China is to
be counted by centuries, if wo are to
