TIM CmXllW, WEDNESDAY, FICI1. 2, 1010. FOX OFF 10 WOODS WITH BIG Steals Hunter's Shirt Front and $175 Gem, Makes a Bee Line For the Hills WISE DOG WENT IN PURSUIT Catches Up and (Cross My Heart) Brings Back Its Master's Sparkler Ketchum Has a Bright Future, Mrs. Campbell Thinks. Montclalr, N. J. After an oxperl ence with his pointer dos Ketchum, Henry T. Campbell of No. 722 Vnlloy road says he believes the eminent an thropologists who are seeking the missing link in Java and other out-of-the-way places arc simply wasting valuable time. They are flnendhic good money that ought rather to bo ! devoted to the further development of pointer dogs. Campbell, who has the same love of the chase as Theodoro Roosevelt, only on a smaller scale, returned from a week's hunting expedition in the Morris county hills. He did not catch any wildebeests, as this is the closed season in Jersey for those well known denizens of the Peapack everglades, but he got four dead foxes and one live one, the latter animal having been only slightly wounded by the shot from Campbell's gun. When Campbell opened the bag in which he had the live fox, the animal, savage from fear and hunger and its unattended wound, leaped on Camp bell and bit and scratched him. He grabbed at the fox and shook it off. As it dropped it seized his shirt front In its teoth and tore out a piece about a foot square, which contained a dia mond stud, for which Campbell paid 3175 on September 6, in Maiden Lane. New York. The fox, with the piece of the shirt containing the diamond, then bolted through the door and made a bee line for the hills. I "Stop thief!" yelled Campbell, as fce and Mrs. Campbell and all the lit tle Campbells humped themselves in hot pursuit, attended by the intelli gent pointer dog. Ketchum was in a state of violent excitement and seem ing indignation because of the rob "bery. Mrs. Campbell says she knew tlie dog was indignant by the way it "barked. The entire collection of Campbells soon gave up the chase, but the astute pointer kept right on and was soon loat to sight In the deep wood that borders the estate. Its an gry bark among the trees was the last sign of Its departure. It was with a heavy heart that Campbell returned to the house. An hour afterward the barking of Ketch um was heard, coming nearer and nearer, and then followed the wel come sound of the animal's claws scratching on the door. As Campbell flung It open he uttered a cry of as tonishment and delight for there was not only the pointer, Ketchum, but In Its mouth was his shirt front, with the 5175 diamond stud glittering se renely in the buttonhole. When Ketchum dropped the linen and the diamond stud on the kitchen floor the dog stood on Its hind legs and held out Its forepaw for a hand shake. Campbell hugged the sagaci ous animal and then gave it a bowl of chicken soup and some rice pudding. "Henry," remarked Mrs. Campbell, "I think that dog will be able to play the piano after a little practice. 1 wouldn't be surprised if it could learn to read." KILL ALL CROOKS AND LUNATICS Judge Amldon Gives that Advice In Behalf of College Men. Fargo, N. D. Judge Charles Aml don of the United States District Court for North Dakota advocated the putting to death of the professional criminal and the hopeless Insane, In an address in the Congregational Church. He took the position that it costs as much to keep a man In the penitenti ary as it does to keep and educate a man in a university, nnd thought well behaved young men should not be de prived of an education by the expendi ture of public money to keep an unre deemable bad man under lock and key. Judge Amldon asserted the pcrc mt ago of professional criminals reform ed Is so small as not to be worth men tioning. He thought the hopelessly insane should be put to death in a hu mane way, thereby relieving them of their misery. HCW TO FALL FROM A HOUSE. What to Do at Such Times Told by an Experienced Hodcarrler. San Francisco. While working on a building at Taylor and O'Farrell streets, Josoph Wood, a hod carrier, of No. 1C05 McAllister street fell three stories, landed on a sawhorse and was uninjured. "I knew I wouldn't be hurt as soon as I began to fall," said Wood, as he dusted his clothing. "I never was hurt In falling. I fell flvr stories once and bruised my shoulder a bit. "There Is an art in knowing how to fall. You want to double yourself up like a porcupine and then not worry. It is this thing of grabbing at the air witli your arms and legs as you go down that makes the trouble." Wood was hauling mortar to the top of the building when be lost his balance and felL DiAiviui;rj i m 0F SEX Frfcssor Zuebtln's Views on Free Love and Children Without Marriage. Poughkeepslo, N. Y. Professor Cl'-rles Zueblln, former professor of roc.olosy in the University of Chica go, otlrred up this city In a lecture In Vp"iar Brother's Institute on the topic "Kducntion and Life." In the audi ence were members of the faculty of Vassar College, clergymen of various denominations and the representative litciary persons of the place. The part of the lecture which made the old town gasp was as follows: "If the average woman is blessed with the maternal instinct, why should she not satisfy it? She is dependent on being able to marry a man, n man whom she may or may not love, a man who may or may not support her prop erly, la there any reason why a worn an who longs to have children should not do so, regardless of any of the conventions of society? Yes, there are the children to be considered. That is our chief obligation to care for the children. "It would seem as though n woman who wants children, and who tenderly cares for them, ought to have them. That is her prerogative, and we ought to mako the opportunities for young people to meet each other more fre quent, so that the proper conjunctions will take place, and we ought to seo that the children which are the result of these unions are provided with proper physical protection. As a mat ter of fact no genuine mother minds laying down her life for her little child. That is part of the great mys tery of sex." FRIED SPUDS IN SOAP. Doting Husband Tried to Cook a Meal as a Surprise for Wife. Chardon, O. It would hardly be fair to give the name of a Chardon man and the supper he tried to cook as a pleasant surprise for his wife on her return from a protracted session of women. He feels mortified enough without it. It looked like the real thfng when he got It done, and Just as his wife reached the house he had it ready to set on the table. The fried potatoes were specially brown and crisp look ing. But they tasted brown. That was the trouble. One bite for Mr. Amateur Cook and one bite for Mrs. was as far as they got. "What did you fry them In, Henry, dear?" said the wife as she smothered a grimace. "In that basin of grease that 'was on the stove," said Henry. And then Henry nearly fainted when she told him the basin contained a washing sompound which shp had dissolved ready for use. COOOCOCOCOOOOOOCOOOOOOOCOQ Mule the Backbone of Q War, Says Champ Clark. X Washington. The mule has found a warm champion in the minority leader of the House, Champ Clark of Missouri. "Can't carry on war without a Missouri mule," said Mr. Clark, "and the mule's price has soar ed with his value.. My Congres sional district is the centre of the mule producing region of the world. A really good mule Is now worth nearly as much q us a race uur&e. OCOOOCOOOOOOOOOOOOOCOOOODO DUCK EXPLODES, PUTS OUT EYE. Rhadamanthus, Prize Fowl of Hawk eye State, Eats Pan of Yeast and Flies Into a Hundred Pieces. Des Moines, Iowu. The strangest accident recorded in local history oc curred here when Rhadamanthus, a duck which had taken prizes at the recent Iowa poultry show, exploded into several hundred pieces, one of which struck Silas Perkins in the eye, destroying his sight. The cause of Rhadamanthus' un timely explosion was a pan of yeast. This, standing upon Perkins' back porch, tempted the duck, which gob bled It all up. Upon roturning from church, Mr. Perkins discovered his prize duck in a loggy condition. Tell tale marks around the pan of yeast gave him a clew to the trouble He was about to pick up the bird when It exploded- with a loud report, and Perkins ran into the house, hold ing both hands over one eye. SAVED BY SUBMARINE. Dives Under Sinking Boat and Raises It. Toulon, France. The submarine Clgogne performed a remarkable llfo saving feat during a recent storm. The boat was practicing diving In the open sea, when the commander saw a large fishing boat suddenly over whelmed and sink. The submarine immediately dived right under the fishing craft, of which the masthead alone was above water. The valves were operated quickly and the Clgogne rose to the surface, lifting the boat and holding It above the water long enough to take off the crew. Child Born With Teeth. Vienna, Austria., Many prominent members of the medical profession have gone to take a look nt little Anna Schmidt, who was born with a mouth full of teeth, tho teeth being as numer ous, hard and well developed as those of a child of two years or more. The cliild Is healthy and strong, and tho tors are debating how soon she nfiy bo given solid food. CUIlVATUltK OP THE KAItTlI. J Conclusive Testimony Which (J.tvu Hlao to n Lnwsuit. A recent discussion In "Science," of ways to demonstrate tho curva ture of tho earth, called out an in teresting reminiscence from a corres pondent. Less than forty years ago. an Englishman, John Hampden, wag. ored $2,500 that the convexity of any inland water surface could not bo proved. Tho challenge was accepted by a distinguished man of science, Alfred Itussol Wallace Ho selected for his experiment a six-mile stretch of canal. On one side of a bridge ho fastened a sheet, six feet long and three feet high. In the middle was a horizontal black stripe. Tho general arrangement though not the exact proportions Is shown In the accompanying drawing. On another bridge (six miles away) was mounted a small telescope for sighting. This was placed at ex actly tho same height as the stripe. Half way between the two was a pole on which were two red disks, four feet apart. The uppermost was adjusted at tho same height above the water as the telescope and black stripe. Viewed through tho tele scope the disks appeared as they do In the drawing. Well, Mr. Hampden refused to look through the Instrument at all, and his referee had the audacity to declare that all three of the points involved in the test were in line! Mr. Wallace's referee reported that the' disks were both above the stripe. Am umpire chosen to settle tho dispute, awarded tho money to Mr. Wallace. Thereupon followed a bitter contro versy. Mr. Hampden called Mr. Wallace all kinds of names, and re marked that "no one but a degraded swindler has dared to make a fraud ulent attempt to support the globular theory." Mr. Wallace wa3 unques tionably In the right, and yet the lawsuits which he instituted to pro tect him from libel proved futile. He spent more than $2,500 In legal ex penses, besides the cost of the experi ment Itself. Tho abuse to which he was subjected extended over a period' of fifteen or twenty years. England Has I,argest Eggs. "Egg cups are bigger in New York' than anywhere else In the world ex cept England." said a globe trotter. "I can't say the same for the eggs, although the hen3 in this part of the country perform their duty of helping to feed the human race pret ty creditably. Still, they cannot come up to the English hens. Their contribution to the food products are extraordinary in size, hence, the cor responding capaciousness of the egg cups. The further south you go on tho Connecticut, the smaller the egg cups grow. In Egypt they dwindle away to the size of the average thim ble. Their diminutive proportions are commensurate with the size of tho eggs, however, which are small est laid by self-respecting hens any place on earth. Place an ordinary Egyptian egg In the British cup and It is absolutely lost. In order that eggs may be decapitated gracefully tho authorities at Alexandra have given orders for the importation of Beveral thousand extra cups to lit the native eggs." Tho Story Tellers of Naples. The story teller thrives In Naples, as there are so many idlers there. He collects a little crowd around him and proceeds in the most dramatic way, gesticulating wildly and work ing his face into tho most excruciat ing expressions, says the Delineator, to relate stories of adventure or other events, much to the edification of his hearers, who, to show their appreciation, arc often betrayed Into giving a sou, which might have been .better spent for bread or polenta. The public letter writer is another street dignitary of Importance, and In great demand, especially with tim id and buxom maids of all work, who have themselves neglected to learn the art of writing. Wlint is "Cnndle Power?" In speaking of the brightness of an electric lamp or a particular gas flame Is customary to say that It has four or six or eight or sixteen "can dle power." As candles vary so much in sice, material and brilliancy, one might think that thoy could not be adopted as a standard of com parlson for other lights. However, if a uniform style is employed, the mat ter becomes more simple. In the United States and Great Britain com. parlson Is made with spermaceti candle, burning at tne rate of 120 grains an hour and having n flame 1.76 inches high. France uses a stcarlne candle, and Germany one of paraftlne. The Unanswered query. What tho average newspaper reader would like to know is how he can build one of thoso $1,500 bunga lows for about $2,500. SOUTH AMEIUCAN 1NVIOOUANT. II w Coca Is Cultlvntcd Used its Prct'cntlvc of Sleep and Fatigue. Coca Is tho South American In vigorant. Tho shrub from which the coca leaves aro obtained grows under favorable conditions to a height of about four motors. It Is cultlvatd In Peru and Bollva. At the time the crop Is gathered the seeds are sown In bods, when thoy gormlnato and grow, and In two months tho growing plants reach a height of about a foot. Tho leaves, grown In the proper sunlicht and shade, aro yellowish, small find thick. This Is the kind of leaf thnt Is prcforrod for chewing by persons using the leaf as a stimulant, forti fier .md preventive of sleep rnd fatigue In the performance of ardu ous work, Inasmuch as thoy prevent rheumatism, from which miners suffer when working In mines that contain much water. Indians who ma3tlcato the leaves of this plant can work twenty-four hours without eang or sleeping. Coca leaves aro used by the na tives when engaged In long and fa tiguing Journeys and by soldiers when subject to hardships and pri vations. They may bo used with all kinds of food and aro said to cure dyspepsia, either taken as an in fusion In the shape of tea or by masticating the leaves. The life of the plant when perfect is eighty years. linn By the Title, of tho Elbe. A H,000-horso power plant oper ated by tidal energy Is to be estab lished on the south bank of the EITje. near Cuxhaven. This Is by far the most ambitious project of this char acter which has ever been contem plated. Electrical energy Is to be delivered to the town named for va-ious commercial purposes, but the greater part of the product of this great power plant Is to be made use of by factories which are to bo established in the vicinity. Ham burg capital Is mostly Interested In the- scheme. Weekly Holiday Enforced. In New Zealand everybody is bound by law to take a weekly hRlf-hellday-, and there must be no shirk ing the obligation. The Grand hotel, Auckland', was recently crowded with guests, and" several waiters. Instead of"obfylng the law and taking their prescribed weekly half-holiday, re mpllied at work- on the promise of extra pay. Hut the authorities came ttr hear of It and the proprietor of the hotel had to appear In court, wVcru' he war convicted and pun isllod1. Jhpnnevc nnd Their Prisoners. Thw Japanese have a rather kindly wnv of treating- prisoners who have not' been convicted. Tho regulation prison dress is a kind of strawbrry- red'-colored kimono, but many wear light blue, as it sign that although tinder suspicion, they have not yet been found guilty. When prisoners In this- class have occasion to pass through the public streets curious extinguisher-like baskets arc placed upom their heads. Emeralds. A'f the- present day most of the emeralds that come Into the market are obtained from the famous mines of Muzo-, in the Columbian province of Bayaca. These workings are situ ated orf the eastern Blope of the Andes, about 70 miles to the northwest of the town of Santa Fo de Bogota. Thero Is another mine, called Lasquez, two days' Journey by muleback from Muzo. Worries of Modern Life. Nowadays we must not drink spir its nor eat meat; wo must not smoke; the air of cities Is poisonous. the air of couhtry too strong; the light ruins our eyes and tho noise racks our nerves; shaking hands Is a means of collecting microbes and kissing is pure suicide. Life is In deed growing dull and difficult. Madrid Dlarlo. French Illiteracy. Although France has had compul sory education for about 25 years, the percentage of illiterates reaches the high figure of 40 per 1,000 men, and 60 per 1,000 women. In this regard Germany appears to great ad vantage, as she has only four Illiter ates por 1,000 of population. Ait of Eating. Eating Is not merely an onjoy ment; It Is a science that must be learnt, as art that must bo acquired by intelligent patience. The man who at middle ago has not discov ered what and how much Is suita ble for him has not finished his edu cation. Some Big Cities. New York has about twice the population of Chicago. The five largest cities on earth aro, in tho or der of their sizo. London, New York, Paris, Chicago, Berlin. London has about a third more poplo than New York. Character by lint. It Is a strange fact, but a truo ono, that the kind of a hat a man wears and the way he wears it form a very good criterion of his natural charac ter. Learn This To-Dajr. Most of the things left undone in this world are left undone be cause the people that could do 'em don't know It. Tappan Wright A Unbtilt-Kxtrnnlnntor. Many a robin has been hunted with salt, and many a rascal has got rich by Belling bug powder with ex plicit directions to "take the bug be tween the forefinger and thumb, open his mouth, nnd drop in two grains of the dust." Here Is the newest Idea: Australia, as Is well known, Is In fested with rabbits a most destruc tive and multitudinous pest. Not long ago a man Invented the follow ing plan: You go out Into tho Hold from which the .rabbits are to be removed. You saw down a tree, and on the slant of tho stump you paint a blark spot. Then you keep very quiet, so that tho rabbits will como back from their burrows and feed as usu al. When a large enough number has collected, you clap your hands sharply. Tho effect will be electric. The rabbits will Jump in haste for their burrows. At least ono is sure to mistake the black spot for his hole and make for It. Invariably he will dash his brains out. This process, repeated often enough, Is warranted to exterminate tho rabbit forever. The reports do not tay whether there are any rabbits left In Australia. Elephants ns Sandwich Mi-n.
