It has no stock and can be stowed by hauling in the cable until the shank is drawn up into the hawser pipe, leaving only the head and flukes pro. jecting, and these ying flat against the side of the The head and flukes are cast in ene solid piece and attached to the shank by a ball and socket joint, which permits thém to'rotate freely tor a certuin distance in any ‘direction. Thus, when the anchor is dropped to the bottom it les flat upon the ground and there are no projecting parts for the cable to catch upon. As soon as the strain comes the flukes turn downward till they form an angle of about forty-five degrees with the shank, and strike into the ground just as the blade of @ hoe wilt strike into soft sand when drawn forward by the handie.- In the old anchor only one fluke took hold at a fime, but-in the new one both work together, giving much greater holding power. Lioyda’ shipping register gives a ‘table showing tat a sailing yacht of three to five tons requires a forty-pound bower and a twenty-pound stream anchor, while cne of thirteen to nineteen tons should be provided with a bower weighing 112 pounds and a stream anchor of seventy pounds. A fisherman who has made a practical test states that a twelve-pound anchor of the new type wiil heid an eighteen-ton boat in tidewater and that it is entirely too heavy for small boats, being exceedingly atte ult to pull out when once it has taken hold. --+e0- Remarkable Artesia: From the St. Louls Globe-Democrat. The attention of the United States bu- reau of animal industry has been called to the remarkable qualities of the water which flows from an artesian well situated on the ranch of Colonel C. M. Terrell, two miles north of San Antonio, Tex. Experi- ments show that it is a sure preventative of Texas or splenetic fever, and it is prob- able that a dipping station for all south Texas cattle will be established at the well When the water was first struck the large pasture in which it ts located was filled with cattle, all of which were covered with the fever tick. A short time after they had commenced drinking the water it wa: found that the animals were entirely free from the ticks. The water has a tempera- ture of 106 degrees, and has peculiar medi- cinal qualities, which prove beneficial to the animals when dipped. In all the dip- ping experiments heretofore made a chemi- cally prepared water was used, which was very injurious to the stock, and for that reason cattle dipping has not come into general practice. The artesian well ts 1,900 feet deep ana has a flow of 800,000 gallons per day. Its principal constituents are sodium sulphate, calcium sulphate and calcium chloride. Well, " 3 | For | C. | Tomorrow!

Johnson of the Western Base Bail League, with. those members not included in the schedule committee, arrived at, Kansas City yesterday for the regular meeting of the league. The arrivals in- cluded Matthew Killilea, Chas. F. Comis- key, Gus Schmelz, G. A. Vanderbeck and Messrs. Schuman and O'Brien, the latter two being the managers of the new Omaha team. The schedule agreed upon by the com- mittee is, it is said, generally acceptable to the respective clubs, but it ts probable ttat some minor ehanges will be suggested. The schedule provides for the opening of the season about April 20, when the Millers will meet the Blues in Kansas City for four games. President Johnson {s confident that the sezson of 1896 will be a prosperous one for the Western League. He says the players’ ccriracts are now coming in steadily. ‘The magnates held a long meeting yes- terday afternoon, and were in session again last nignt. A resolution was adopted protesting against its proposed rule for the drafting of players from minor league clubs upon thirty ‘days’ notice. The protest will be laid before the National League presidents at their meeting in St. Louis next week. NINE HAVE COME TO TERMS. Taylor Among the First to Sign Contracts. A special from St. Louls says that while the Browns’ blank contracts ware sent out only last Friday, President Muckenfuss has already received niné of them beck proper- ly signed. The signers are Taylor, Carsey, Lally, Crooks, Clifford, Gilpatrick, Hall, Donnelly and Turner. Mr. Muckenfuss said Thursday that the r2port that an opportunity had not- deen given some of the players to sign was in- correct. “I mailed them myself last Fri- day,” he declared. “The league rules very plainly state that contracts must be offer:d to players before March tf or the club has no further claim to them.” The signing of Wilfred Carsey, Russ Hall and Jimmy Donnelly insures the coming to St. Louis of these three m2n, who, many persons believed, wouki not be seen in that city this season. The trouble that Carscy had with the home club last summer, when he jumped the team and returned to nis home on Staten Island, has been adjusted by Von der Ahe’s eremoving the fine im- posed on the little twirler.

Will Allow Foot Ball Playing. The city counell of Atlanta, Ga., has re- pealed the ordinancé prohibiting the play- ing of foot ball within the limits of that cliy. Tne ordinance, was passed in the midst of the excitement following the ac- cidental death of a University of Georgia student in a game last year. The author of the first ordinanee introduced the ordi- nance to repeal it. He excwsed his incon- sistency by saying that the rules of foot ball had been radically changed, and that it was no longer dangerous, Michael to Stick to the Wheel.

There are now trailing across the state from east to west some of the mctleyest crowds of men that ever crossed a conti- nent. It is the crusade to the Klondike that is now on in earnest. In a few months the movement will be reversed and thous- ands of the crusaders who now have money will be working their way back home agaia without any, but rich in experience. Every west-bound Northern Pacific ex- press that passes through Helena is joaded down with Kiondikers. Yesterday there were fourteen coaches on No. 1, the west- bound train, which pulled in about on time. Nine coaches make an ordinary and a heavy train, but the rush was so great that five additional coaches nad been at- tached to the train. The through Pact express was not exceptionally heavy yet terday, for every day there are from three to six additional coaches to each westward- bound train. The passenger list of yester- day’s through train included about 200 men bound for the gold fielis and 100 dogs. Most of those bound for the Klondike are young men, but there are a tew eray- headed enthusiasts among “hem. Many of them are from the far cast, and there are delegations from Iowa, ‘ll!avis and other micdle states. A railroad man who came into Helena yesterday on the Paciti press said that 90 per cent of th dikers travel armed, and many of them a their weapons in true Buffalo Bill yle. They seemed to think :hat as they were In the wild west it would Le advisable to have their trusty six-shooters et nara’ ready on the instant to repel the attack of train robbers. “In one car “there were al ig Colt sald the railroad man, who wore one,” ut thirty men revolvers im scabba to harness under their arms. of them also had big hunting kn’ stuck in their belts. The weapons wcre ail bright and shi.y, and ate a array. If the train had otner way, one would easily have imagined a filibustering expedition on the to liberate Cuba. I think from the wa of them talked, they rathei looked for the train to be held up, and were almost look- ing for the adventure. Tose men exhib ed thelr weapons in the way that might be expected of Wild Bill, che King of the Plains. They would get off when the train stopped an! walk up aid Cown the plat- form, with their big guns and knives in plain view. They were on parade, and it did them geod to watk through large crowds at the more important stattons. These fellow: parted. They actually slept with their pis- tols and their knives straypel to them. “Now, I suppose that the irmamen: of those men must have cost aca of them in the neighborhood of $30. Some of them had rifles as well as revolvers, and I sew one man with a shotgun. Although they had expended so much fot guns, they did not waste any money on the dining ci Nearly every Klondiker on the train either brought his provisions with him or ate at stations along the And they had no money to spend for sleeviig car berths, either. Peraaps they were only inuring themselves to the hardships they proposs to to subject th the gold field: —____ ++ RARE AND EXPENS! selves to on thelr way VE DRUGS. Extract From 70,000 Flowers Put One Pound of Saffron. From Chambers’ Journel. Saffron would strike an ordinary observer as decidedly expensive at 36 shillings « pound, until told that it is composed of the central small portions only of the flowers of a crocus, 70,000 of witch it takes to yield the material for one pourd. Attar of roses sells at £28 odd per pound, and it takes 14,- 00 poun4s—or nearly five tons—of roses to obtain ene pound of the oil. Aconite, ex- tracted from the root of monkshood, is said to be the very strongest poison extant, the dose being one-six-hundredth of a grain, Its sold at the rate of £27 per ovnce.

Another pe- lrug is a has it The first week of February brought ed it a taste of wintry weather. The we ended, however, in the open country with @ brilliant wintry day, continuous sunshine and a bracing air combining to render out- door conditions exceptionally attractive’ after the long spell of unseasonably mild weather. The precocity of the seascn well shown by the forward state of hedg row herbage, amongst waich the dark fol- jage of the cuckoopint, the whorled leaves of the goose-grass, and an already dant growth of umbelliferous are conspicuous. The elder is in leaf, hagei catkins had shed thejr pollen before Jan- uary kad run-its course, and the hedge- row sallows are resplendent with the luster of their silky buds. In gandens the goose- berry and currant bushes ate dotted over with the green tips of the young leavcs which Lave too soon escaped from their imprisonment, and the condition of pear trees—especially wall fruit—is such that not a few growers have abandoned the hope of amy crop this year. > winter uecnite, which at this early ‘ate is often only just peeping above the ground, is al- ready ripening its many-seeded follicles. We may add that turnips and swedes left in the ground to be hurdled with sheep are beginning to “run” freely, and unless we should experience further checks such as was imposed by the frost at the end of the week, the ficlds will soon be yellow with an undesired blossom developed at the ex- ense of the roots. Rape, too, an exceed- ingly valuable crop in a making rapid growth, the ap: while ypea: ance of pastures in general, and of water- meadows in particular, is such as would be timely apes a couple of months hence. —_+0+_—____ After the Lecture, From Puck.
