A physician, out of the abundance of caution, cauterized the wound, and no evil consequences are apprehended. The dog shows no signs of being mad. JAMES D.

Skeleton of Woman Who Lived Ontnries Ago is Found. The mummy known as Ra-Nefer, which is in the museum of the Royal college of Surgeons in London, has been described as the oldest mummy known, says the New York Sun. The date assigned to it by Prof. Eliot | Smith was the age of Senefru the beginning of Egypt's fourth dynasty, about 3,700 years B. C. Some human remains, however, have now been dis overed at Sakkara,; about fifteen miles from Cairo, belonging to the period of the end of the second and the beginning of the third j dynasties, about 4000 years B. C. Among them is the skeleton of a woman about thirjy-five years of age, which was found completely invested in a large series of bandages, and next to the body was a corroded woven cloth. The corrosion, says Prof. Smith was presumptive evidence that some material, probably crude natron, was applied to the surface of the body, with a view to its preservation, and h? has thus been able to trace to a higher antiquity than had previously been done, the use of this method for preserving the body of the dead. The annual freshman-sophomore class "rush" at Yale was ouiittfd on Washington's birthday this year for the first time in years. The faculty] has been making more and more rig-! orous rules regarding the struggle with the result that th" students declare that there is no longer any "red blood" in it, and have abandoned it as poor fun. NO HURRICANES FOR OUR COAST. Dutch Weather Prophet is Fr??ttjr Confident in Hia Prediction.?Sooth Atlantic will be Exempt. Charleston Post. There will be no West Indian hurricane to strike the South Atlantic cuasc tins summer, auu me peupio of Charleston, the seashore resorts and islands generally may breath a sigh of peace and contentment, if the prediction of the "Dutch Weather Prophet," W. P. Houseal, is accepted. Mr. Houseal gives his positive statement to this effect, and he has been forecasting the weather for many years. "You may quote the prediction of the "Dutch Weather Prophet' that there, will be no West Indian hurricane in the usual period of occurrence, to disturb the SouthxAtlantic coast, and of course this means that Charleston will be exempt, as last year, from such storms. Periodically, however, severe thunderstorms may be expected throughout the northern hemisphere in the period from the vernal to the fall equinox," writes Mr. Houseal to a member of The Evening Post staff. Forecaster Scott is not prepared to follow Mr. Houseal in his prediction and the government office will not say that the Dutch weather prophet's forecast will not be realized. The government makes no long forecasts of the j kind, but Mr. Houseal does, basing nis calculations on the movement of the planetary bodies, phases of the moon, etc., which he has figured to a mathematical nicety and which he is content to stand upon, as affording a safe I and a accurate method of forecasting the weather. The fact that the government weather bureau does not endorse his way of figuring on the weather does not disturb Mr. Houseal in his predictions of storms, cold and | hot weather and other meteoroligical | conditions of whicht, he has made a j study an# about which he periodically I gives out a statment to newspapers, ! respecting these phenomena. Good Silo for $6?>. Atlanta, Ga., March * .?How, the , average farmer, using ordinary farm tools at an expense of only $65.00 can contsruct a silo with a capacity of 55 tons?enough silage to feed 20 cows 40 pounds per day -for four months?is told in a booklet just gotten out by the live stock department of the Southern Railway, a copy of which will be mailed free to any far mer addressing request for -same to Mr. F. L. Word, Live Stock Agent, Southern Railway Bldg., Atlanta, Ga. "Where there is live stock on the i farm there should be a silo" is th? f title of this booklet which tells of the advantage to the farmer of having a silo and the great saving which it enables him to make in the cost of winter feeding for his live stock. ' The figures given are taken from the _A? 1 ?- ^ ? ^PawwaOOAA ? practical experience ui a icuucoocc farmer who built a silo pn the lines indicated twenty years ago, who finds it as good as new today, and feels that it has paid for itself many times over every year. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has recently declared that the Southeas: tern States constitute the ideal secI tioii of the United States for live i live stock raising and must be look! ed to in future years for the nation's I food supply. To stimulate interest in I the live stock industry and to aid fari mers to successfully follow this line, l the Southern Railway has established i its live stock department which is giving undivided attention to this work.
