While the tar- get 1s in motion the gun pointer endeavors | to train the gun so as to keep the cross wires of his telescope on the target: Whenever the cross wires are ‘“on” an | electric connectic es a pencil to _| make a dot on the target, the dot repre- senting a real shot on a real target at-1000 yards. Thus the men are accustomed to train the guns under the disturbing con- ditions of a ship in a seaw. Ethereal Vibrations. The effect of movements in the ather de- pends upon the rapidity of the vibrations producing them. The unit of measure- ment for short waves in the ether is the bicron, which is about 1-25,0009)th of an inch. Waves measuring 380 to 810 bicrons affect our sense of sight, the formar num- ber giving violet and the latter red color. The invisible rays—to and which the actinic Roentgen rays belong—are shorter ve been measured as short as 100 Ether waves longer than those giving light give the feeling of warmth. The longest heat waves are eight times the length of those of the red rays, or 50th of an inch. At the other end of the ale are electric waves above 130 feet in length—those used by Marconi being one- eighth of a mile. ————— “Cape Horse Sickness.” “Cape horse sickness” {s a disease which resembles human malaria. It es- pecially attacks horses that are left to graze all night in marshy regions. Dr. Pitchford found that horses stalled by night in stables protected by wire gauze remained perfectly wvell, and therefore concluded that mosquitoes are responsi- ble for the disease. @ iivivieivininieinieivilviefdeieiieii @ pitches—Brown 1, Butler 1. 1:45.

Dr. Simonton is very keen on advancing in his profession; the healing art has no more zelaous devotee. Alas for his ambi- tion, he quitc neglected the regimen ot the late Mr. Banting, so that when he applied for the post of assistant surgeon on board one of the ships of the United States navy the committee of selection politely rejected him on the ground that he was too stout to get through the hatchways. Two years since the guardians of Pet- worth, near Ashford, were obliged to re- fuse admittance to a female pauper in consequence of her excessive corpulence. Firstly, because they had no clothes large enough to fit her massive persgn; sec- ondly, because she could not walk up- stalrs, and by rcason of her abnormal avoirdupois the. workhouse officials were unable to lift her from the ground. At the time when an Ohio damsel be- came engaged to the man of her choic: she weighed but ten stone—a moderate weight that reached the alarming flgure of twenty-two stone. This was too much for her fiance, who promptly cried off, cnly to find himself sued for breach of promise, the deserted lady declaring that as her excessive weight—an insuperable bar to other offers—had accumulated dur- ing thelr engagement, her lover had, by unduly prolonging his courtship, been guilty of contributory negligence. ‘While strolling through a French fair Lablache, the celebrated singer, a man of enormous proportions, was accosted by an irate showman, who, with much indig- nant gesticulation inquired what was the use of exhibiting a *fat man” when the public could see one much bigger for nothing. It was taking the bread out of an honest man’s mouth—that it was! Tickled with the humor of the situation Lablache gave the man a handsome gra- ity and URISHgEIS Rromised to MapND fair ground forthwith. On another oceasion, when leaving Co- vent Theater after rehearsal, the same singer found that his carriage had not ar- rived. A fourwheeler was halled, into which, with some difficulty, Lablache hoisted himself poised on the edge of the smaller seat. To change his position was necessary, but as he rose to do so the floor of the vehicle, con- structed only to bear normal weight, gave way with a crash, and the celebrated ar- tfst found himself standing in the road. From this awkward position he was, amid the laughter of the onlookers and the dbjurgations of cabby extricated with no little difficult it Women Worth Millions. In connection with the appearance of Senora Alvarado of Mexico as one of the richest, if not the very richest, women in the world, the following list of some of the Mexican muitimillionaires’ com- panions in great wealth is interesting. The amounts are estimated, but are be- lieved to be approximately correct: Senora Alvarado, $100,000,000. Miss Krupp of Essen, $70,000,000. Miss Hetty Green, $i Daughter of Baron Hi Duchess of Hamilton, $35,000, Mrs. Willlam Astor, $30,000,000. Baroness Burdett-Coutts, $30,000,000, Mrs. Elliott ¥. Shepard, $30,000,000. Mrs. J. W.

Special Dispatch to The Call SACRAMENTO, Sept. 12.—There was a large attendance of Natlonal Guardsmen at the State rifle and pistol champlion- ship shoot near this city to-day. The weather was favorable for good shoot- ing and a number of good scores were made with rifle and pigtol.
