Cincinnati, Ohio, July 25.—A nov- el contest tuok place here this morn- ing. It was the first professonal type-writing match ever held in the United States, and was for of $500, between Frank E. McGur- rin, of Salt Lake City, Utah. and Louis Traub, of Cincinnati, Ohio. Both men are considered among the most expert type-writers in the coun- try. The question of speed attained on a writing machine has never been definitely decided until to-day. The conditions of the match were that each man shouid write forty-five min- utes from dictation and the same length of 1e from copy. It was agreed that only legal matter should be used. Quite a large number of leading stenographers and type-wri- ters of the city witnessed the con- test. McGurrin did his work on a Rem- ington machine and Traub used a Caligraph. It was a very brilliant performance. McGurriu proved him- self the better man although Traub’s copy showed that he was able to strike the keys fasier than the a purse chine would write. MeGurrin’s work was simply woud In writing from copy he never looks at his keys, and could have done the dictated work as well bindfolded. When the match was ended Me Gurrin had written 8,709 words in ninety minutes, au average of over 96 words per The great amount of matter turned out will be understood when it stated that he covered in an hour and a half more than four solid columns of the Globe Democrat. 938 words in nincty minutes ininute. 1s Traub wrote 6,- alt av- erage of about 25 per ccit less than his opponent.

For many years the manufacturers of Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy, who are thoroughly responsible, financial- ly, have offered in good faith, through nearly every newspaper in the land, a standing reward of $500 for every case of nasal catarrh, no matter how bad, or how long standing, which they cannot gure.

Combustibility is not generally con- sidered one of the properties of iron, yet that metal will under proper condi- tions burn readily. The late Prof. Magnus, of Berlin, Germany, devised the following method of showing the combustibility of iron: A mass of iron filings is approached by a magnet of con- siderable power, and a quantity there- s permitted to adhere to it. This , spongy tuft of iron powder con- a large quantity of air imprisoned between its particles, and is, therefore, and because of its extremely commin- uted condition, well adapted to mani- fest its combustibility. The flame of an ordinary spirit lamp or Bunsen burner readily sets tire to the finely di- vided iron, which continues to burn brilliantly and freely. By waving the magnet to and fro the showers of sparks sent off produce a striking and brilliant effect. The assertion that iron is more com- bustible than gunpowder, hasits origin in the following experiment, which is also a very striking one: A little alco- poured into a saucer and ignited. ture of gunpowder and iron fil- ings is allowed to fall im small quanti- ties at a time into the flame of the burn- ing alcohol, when it will be observed that the iron witl take fire in its pas- sage through the flame, while the gun- powder will fall through it and col- lect beneath the liquid alcohol below unconsumed. This, however, is a scientific trick, and the experi- ment hardly justities the sweeping assertion that iron is more combustible than gunpowder. The ignition of the iron under the foregoing circumstances is due to the fact that the metal parti- cles, heing admirable conducters of heat, are able to absorb sufficient heat during their passage through the flame —and they are consequently raised to the ignition point. The particles of the gunpowder, however, are very poor conductors of heat, comparatively speaking, and during the exceedingly brief time consumed in their passage through the flame they do not become heated appreciably, or certainly not to their point of ignition. Under ordinary circumstances, gunpowder vastly more inflammable than iron. Another method of exhibiting the combustibility of iron, which would appear to justify the ertion that it is really more combustible than gun- pow der is the followi ing: Place in a re- factory tube of Bohemian gl tity of dry, freshly-precipitated hy- drated ferric oxide. Heat this oxide to bright redness, and pass a current of hydrogen through the tube. The hydrogen will deprive the oxide of its oxygen, and reduce the mass to the metallic state. If, when the reduction appears to be finished, the tube is re- moved from the flame and its contents permitted to fall out into the air, it will take fire spontaneously and burn to oxide again. This experiment indi- cates that pure iron ina state of the extremest subdivision is one of the most combustible substances known— more so even than gunpowder and other explosive substances, which re- quire the application of considerable heat or of a spark to ignite them.— Iron Age. is oo ——_ of mo, W.

Every owner of domestic animals oc- ly experiences losses from ac- injuries to them, and this is especially true of breeders who have animals running together in numbers, in yards or pastures. Broken legs are not uncommon with horses and cattle of various ages, and the question al- ways arises as to the best course to pur- sue. The prevalent disposition is to regard a broken leg as incurable (and 7.25. the contrary), and to condemn the un- fortunate animal at once to death. There are cases, undoubtedly, in which this is the better course, as where the age or small value of the animal will not warrant the expenditure of money and valuable time upon it. But in other cases it pays well to mend the broken leg. Too often, however, particularly when young animals are killed as soon as broken legs are discovered, it is true, even if veterinary skill can not be ob- tained, nature and common sense may be combined to bring about substantial recovery. A few eases in my experi- ence, to which have been added the ob- servation or account of others similar, lead me to believe that where horses and cattle have broken legs, and are of sufficient value to warrant some ex- penditure of time and labor, and not too old, an effort should be made to save them. Where possible it 's true economy to em- ploy the best veterinary assistance in such cases. Country doctors, in general practice, are pretty good com- parative anatomis and are usually ound willing to apply their surgical skill to injured anima’ The animals themselves will generally do much to- wards recovery, if only placed under favorable conditions and reasonably assisted by their owners. Some years ago a two-year-old colt, with others in an outlying pasture, was found with a fore leg broken above the knee and hanging limp and useless. It was early June, hot weather fast com- ing on; the mal, although fairly gentle, had er been accustomed to stall or harness. I knew it was useless to attempt putting it in a sling, or ad- sasmall lot avail- g, water and colt was placed, en a little extra the form of oats, and The leg hung in such There wa able, with excelle shade.

By the time pasturage failedin the fall it had a sub- stantially sound leg and was 4 useful animal for years. When trot- | ting it showed slight lameness, proba- | bly due to a litle shortening of the in- jured leg, but-in field work and for all ordinary farm purposes it proved a thoroughly serviceable horse. A valuable heifer just a year old had one hind leg very badly broken, includ- j ing an ugly flesh wound, while unload- ing from a wagon. This leg was set, put in a stiff plaster bandage for weeks, the animal kept in a box stall, lying down most of the time. After a long and varied experience with surgical as- sistance, making a case of much inter- est, but which can not now be de- scribed in detail, the mal re Ropeatae to such an extent that, 1 she has an awkward ley, good cow and a breeder. Within a few weeks running in a covered yard, showed great lameness, and on examination the bone of a fc ye was found broken between the knee and the ankle. It was evidently eaused by a blow, from, I fear, a brutal attendant, now dis- charged. The and condition of the animal were like those of the colt, so no attempt was made to sling it and use a band: The calf has been given a comf ife fed well, and simple : been made to reduc keep the leg ina favorable condition. It has been impossible for the creature to keep its foot entirely clear of the regular and profitable a thrifty calf, place, s have ground, and has retarded the healing; but it is now using the leg, and while there hes been a bony growth, which will enlarge the leg and be a blemish, Ido net permanent lameness, the little fellow viceable bull.
