CONTRIVANCES THAT SHOW WHAT A GENIUS THE YANKEE IS. Von Would Call Mot of the Invention. Ah untitles and Yet They Are l'rful li vtrm For PoLonlng refltnltnttrnp. of Many Kind.. Amwicau Invoiition has given birth to uo end of freaks, which hnvo bocu embalmed at thn patent oflk-o in order that thoy may not pcriNh. Some of the Queerest of them aro dovicos for entrap ping beasts, bugs. Unites and even human beings. What, for examplo, could be funnier that the notion of using imitation flow ers with poisoned honey to attract nox ious insects? The artificial blossoms, each containing a small quantity of sug ary liquid properly prepared, are to bo fastened to twigs. Months of destruct ive species sip the deadly nectar and die. A more elaborate device of a simi lar description is intended for tho pro tection of apple trees. It is a tin can cov ered as to its upper half with luminous paint Ob tho outside of the lower half apple blossoms are represented with the tamo sort of paint Inside of the recep tacle is a Bmall quantity of cider. Tho can is t be hung on a branch of an ap ple tree at night Insects, attracted by the piorured flowers, light upon the can. The smell of the cider induces them to enter through holes provided for that purpose. Thoy then drop down into the older and are drowned. Yrt it is not always easy to distin guish between a crank idea and a use ful discovery. Tho poisoned counterfeits of flowers above described are said to work very well. Many years ago a man got a patent for a method of killing bugs on trees by inclosing tho whole tree in a sort of balloon of canvas, into which an asphyxiating gas was to be poured for tho pnrposo of suffocating the insects. Everybody thonght ho was a lunatic But now that his patent lias run out tho merits of the plan havo fcuddonly obtained appreciation, and its adoption is alleged to havo saved tho orango growing industry in California. Several kinds of luminous baits for fish havo boon patented. Ono of those is a minnow of hollow glass coated on tho insido partly with a solution of gold or silver, and partly with luminous paint Tho result is a very brilliant object in tho water, calculated to attract any pro dacious creature with fins. Another in teresting contrivance is for making frog bait moro seductive. The jerking of the lino equipped with this dovico causes tho frog's legs to move as if he wero swimming. Contrivances for catching insects are moro numerous than any others. Ono of them is a furnace for slaughtering po tato bugs. To begin with, a deep and wide furrow is to be plowed all around an infested field. Through this trench a smooth log is dragged to make the surface hard and smooth. The bugs in migrating to other grounds are unable to soalo the trench, and the furnace, which is a cylinder of iron filled with fuel, is drawn along the furrow and destroys thorn. Other odd devioea are cartridges intended to be inserted in the months of ant holes and to be fired, thus oommunieating stilling vapors to the subterranean chambers, also many kinds of lamps for attracting and burn ing up the moths of various worms in cotton fields. There is a toy pistol for insects, which suck them in when ho trigger is pnllod. An ingenious westerner has invented a trap for catching the horn fly which is snch an enemy to cattle in some parts of the country. It consists most impor tantly of a great frame to which brush is attached in such a manner that when the beasts walk through, eager as they always are to scratch themselves, the flies will be scraped from their bodies by the branches. Finally the frame is closed up by means of doors, and the captured insects are destroyed. Nearly everybody has heard of the gold tape worm trap, which tho patient swallows. Bedbug traps are of several varieties, all of them being intended to afford at tractive hiding places for these blood suckers and to be burned or scalded out afterward. Much ingenuity bas been expended in rattraps. Some of them are so elab orate that no full witted rodent wonld go near them. One requires Mr. Bat to come in through a door, whioh drops behind and makes him a prisoner. Boe ing a bright light above, he ascend a flight of little steps and trots across a mall plank that 1 so nioely adjusted as to balanoe that his weight causes it to tip and throw him into a tank of water. Anotir contrivance consists of a doublo chamber. Ono chnmlHT has a glass end, through which Mr. Hat sees two or throo imitation rats having a nice time with a bit of cheese. Wish ing to join them, ho runs around tlio box, gets into tho other chnmber mid is caught Thero nro n nninlier of devices which employ Mirrors for tho purpose of lur ing the rat to his fate. IIo mounts on top of n barrel nml sees a toothsome piece of cheese. As ho npproaehes it ho beholils another rodent in reality his own reflection in a pieee of looking glass coming for the eheeso from the opposite direction. Ho makes n dash to get thero first, nml n pivoted board drops him into tho cask, which is half full of water. Hats will swim for a long time, so ono humanitarian 1ms. patented a water trap with little shelves arouiul tho cilgo ami just ahovo tho sur face. On tho shelve are plaenlFiimll lead weights, with fishhook hanging from them. Tho captured rat in trying to escape grasps nnu of tho hooks, get it fastened in hH mouth, dislodges tho piece of lead and is carried to tho bot tom by tho latter. Hparrow traps r.ro of many different kind. Most of them invite tho birds to walk in through a door which drops bel .nd them, making them prisoners. When next seen in tho rest intra ts, they are reedbird on toast. Philadelphia Times. THEY SWORE OFF. When He Hemmed 111. Little Vice, Khe Took I'p With Her Own. A prominent young man of this city has been nu inveterate cigarette smoker for several years past, and ho indulged in the habit to such an extent that it was injuring his health. Ho ha a girl of whom he thinks all tho world, and it' a coso of vico versa. This young lady has a very good complexion, but has nn inordinate love for tho use of powder, which habit tho young man de tests a heartily as she does his cigarette habit. They finally agreed that each would swear off, tho one from using powder and the other from smoking cigarettes. It was hard work for tho young man, but every time he hungered for a wad of nicotine hi mind pictured the form of his fair one parading down street with her face looking like a pan of dough, and he desisted. This went on for several weeks, and each was remark ing how much better the other was looking, but tho old craving for tho cof fin nail came upon tho young man once more, and ono day last week he broke over. He thought no ono would ever find it out but he was seen, the news was carried to the girL and she pre pared to pet even. They were to go to seo a certain popu lar comedian the last night ho was here, and tho young man called with a cab. The young lady was at tho door, her face closely untitled, and in her hand tho bouquet that cost him $3. Arrived nt tho opera house, thoy wero entering tho door when tho young man turned to speak to I ho fair one by his sido. Oh, that face! She had smeared it with powder until it had been uecessnry to cut eyeholes. It was frightful. Ho stopped. "Aro you going in looking liko that?" "Just n you say," was tho response. "Well, I say no. I'm not traveling with freaks now. Wo'll go back homo." And they did. It cost him $10, thero were two vacant seat at tho opera house, but tho young man hn not smoked any cigarettes siuco, Indian apolis Sentincl. He Knew ni. Employer. It is said that Charles 8.

John Locke's blind man, who hazard ed tho guess that tho color scarlet was probably something liko tho sound of a trumpet, is generally thought to havo imply spoken according to his lighls, or rather lack of lights, but it nppears from Dr. W. H. Column's articles tin this subject that wo havo now laid thn foundation of a science of color hearing. Tho term is defined by him as applying to tho special case in which a color sen sation is excited by somo auditory stim ulus a, for example, by tho pronun ciation of tho vowel sound. It is not n matter of association, as in tho case of tho "shrill squilik" evoked by tho tiling of a saw or tho drawing of a slate pen cil down a slate. Dr. Column estimates tho number of people who possess tho faculty of color hearing a under 12 per cent nml mentions a case described by Flournoy, in which tho vowel "i" awakened the impression of nn orange circle with on "i" in black in the cen ter. Theophile Gautier, under tho influ ence of hasheesh, heard the sound equiv alents (whatever they may havo been) of various colors. Tho notion is, at all events, of respectable antiquity. Dr. Column cite as believer in color hear ing Hoffman, Go?the and Hans flach and refer to the case of St. Catharine of Siena, who had a "bright red color Sensation whenever she saw or thought of the host " The Lancet, which com ment learnedly on Dr. Colman' theo ties, feel disposed to think that the red ribbon which adorn tho dark blue bon net of tho female memlier of the Sal vation Army i a parallel case and not difficult to explain on the principle of conventional metaphor. London News. Matrimonial Separation. In Egypt. The liveliest divorce centers of the west have to take second place when compared with matrimonial separation in Egypt, according to the accounts of the American consul to the land of the Nile. He tell of an altercation that took place between one of his most trust ed servant and a veiled lady, hi wife, which sqnabblo resulted in a divorce in less than five minutes. The scene opened with reproaches emanating from the woman. "Take care," warned the man. "I put you from mel" Nothing daunted, the virago continued until the exasperated man again repeated, "I put you from me," Still the torrent of abuse flowed incessantly. Worried be yond endurance, the servant entered the house and secured 80 shilling out of hi year's salary of 10, and returning to tho woman said: "Here is your dow ry. Now for the third and lost time I repeat, 'I put you from mo.'" At these word tho woman went her way, and tho astonished American learned that ho had witnessed divorco pwwopd ings, for in Egypt tho assertion, "I put yon from mo, " made three times to a wifo by her husband, constitutes a sol emn divorce without .alimony, and once the words nro said tho woman has no right to any further support from tho man. Chicago Tribune. CatfliiiiB a Thief. Saindo, ono of tho cleverest of the Paris detectives, was ono day making his round of the Quiu-tier du Temple when ho found himself in n group lis tening to a mnu selling silver watches for S francs each. Saindo bought one, and having assured himself that it was genuine- came to the not unnatural con clusion that these watches could not havo been come by honestly. Tho vender was, however, a giant, and Saindo is by no means blessed with largo proportions. Ho furthermore ar gued that there were confederates among tho group. In a minute or two he had formed a plan. Ho asked the man to tako a glass of wine, saying that he meant to purchase another watch. The offer was accepted, and a sooond watch was tendered, which Saindo pretended to examine. He, however, suddenly took to his heels, watch in hand. There upon the vonder pursued, crying: "Stop, thief!" When Saindo got him as far as the police station, he turned around, clutch ed the other by the throat, and to the great astonishment of every one led his captive inside. Paris Journal. Winks Tha Paaa Im tk. Night. An ingenious Brooklyn statistician es timates that united Brooklyn has over 106,000 oats, of which more than one half are nushelbirod. He considers it as a conservative estimate that 10 per cent of the 1,000,000 inhabitants of our sis ter city are kept awoke at night by the howling of the 100,000. This makes one case of insomnia per cat and leads one to the conclusion thut Brooklyn is a very sleepless city. If cats and insomnia prevail with equal virulence in other citios, it would follow that there are 6, 000, 000 cats and 6, 000, 000 cases of in somnia in America. Yet no notice is taken of this pathogenio factor by sys tematic writers on sleep. Medical Rec ord. Klwlo. It was a woman of the world who said: "Kissing is like any other intoxi cant; once yon cultivate a taste for it there is no such thing as getting enough of It " , And it was a young matron with a heart full of love for her firstborn who declared in the very face of the crusty old doctor's learned objections to kissing that as long as there were moth ers and babies in the world there would ' he kissing ad libitum. Philadelphia: Bulletin. i 8HE CAME TO HER LOVER'S HESCUE. A N hiHilteaeher I.xee'iten the lire Drill to Aeerpt a Proposal off Marriage Mis Isabel MeHallon wa a teacher in a public sehnM. She had a renin-' man friend who was nervou and dilll dent. Sho knew that ho was in lovo Willi her, but every time ho started to propose ho stammered and stuttered and been mo po embarrassed that she felt obliged to change thn subject. The young man realized U failing ond wa much humiliated thereby. Night oft el night be went up to Miss MeGallnli'rt house, determined to nsk her if sho would not consent to givo up teaching school and become his wife, ami night niter night ho madn frost of tho operation. Ono day liowa passing nlonn the street on which tho school in which Miss JIcGallnu teaches is situated, mid he felt.that if ho could sen tho object of hi adi nation nt that tiino ho would , havo nerve enough to ask tho momen tous question. Ho thought tho matter ' over and b"eamn firmly convinced that 1 ho was equal to the emergency. There I Was nothing to do then but try tho ex- j periment, and ho walked Vildly into the school and uskod to sco Miss Me Gallon. Tho janitor escorted him to her room. She had a lot of youngsters In front of her, deep ill the mysteries of decimals, when the yonug man camo into tho room. Sho came graciously forward to meet him. Ho blushed a bit, but hi tongue did not go back on him. "How do you do?" she said, with a charming smile. "To what am I indebt ed for the great pleasuro of this visit?" Tho young man grasped her hand. "Miss McUallou Isabel," he said fer vently, "I have called here this morn ing because I have something very im portant to say to you. It is something on which depend my happiness for all my future dny. I want to ask" "But" interrupted Mis McGallon, "if it is so important a that, would it not bo better if we were alone?" "Yes, but I beg of you not to turn a deaf ear to me because these children are here. " Mis McGallon smiled again. Then she walked to tho desk and rang a big gong three times. At the sound of it the children nil rose and marched out of the room. "That," she said a she turned to the astonished young man, "is the fire drill. Now, if you hustle, yon will have time to say what you wont to say before they get back." And he had just received the be trothal kis a tho children came troop ing through the hall on their return. Buffalo Express. A fttory With a Resonant Moral. Young men ought not to play pokor or old men, for thnt mater at any timo, and when poker is played in business hour the heinousness of tho act is fla grant. So when President Warren Elliott of tho Wilmington and Weldon railway camo unexpectedly upon n group of his young men playing poker, with coffee beau for chips, tho other day, ho ac cepted their explanation that there was no work on hand and tho game was "just for amusement. " At somo remote period of his existenco Mr. Elliott had been initiated into tho intricacies of tho game, and so ho drow up a chair and watched it with interest.
