! MORE THAN A RAIN SHEDDER
; African Chiefs Take the Possession of
?n Umbrella Very 8eriously, Ac
* cording to Reports.
Some time ago, there was what the
news described ?s unrest In- the West
African colony of Lagos; telegrams
were dispatched between that country
and Great Britain, governors -and
deputy-governors were- interviewed,
and it was with difficulty that a native
war was averted. The cause of all
this commotion was an umbfella^
|. Now, in our country, as we" all know,
' an umbrella. Is looked upon as a harm
less possession? but not so In West
; Africa, 'there, among most of the na
tive tribes the umbrella is regarded
as an emblem of royalty, and Its pos
session Is strictly confined to the chief
L or king of the tdbe.
Therefore the Indignation was In
tense on the part of one of these
? kings, when he found an inferior chief
i putting up an umbrella of his own.
' The king at once took a journey to
Lagos, to lodge a formal complaint of
[ the chiefs treasonable conduct with
the British governor.
An Africa^ king's umbrella Is a very
elaborate affair, and' It often costs
j large sums of money. Most of the
umbrellas for Ashantl and the Gold
coast are made of gigantic size, some
of them when open measuring ten
feet across.
The coverings of these umbrellas
are of colored silk ? the brighter the
better, with very deep fringes. The
largest umbrellas are carried over the
heads oY chiefs, by bearers while other
bearers steady tho^umbrella by cords
attached to the uppermost parts.
* One state umbrella had fop Its apex
a silver eagle standing on two silver
cannons, while another umbrellA had
a gold hen on the top, thg hen being
aurrounded by /tumerons chickens, to
represent the chief and his tribe. K .
CHANGES IN" "OLD FAITHFUL"
Yellowstone's Famous Geyser -Has-!
Slightly Lengthened the Periods
Between It* Eruptions.
Old Faithful, Yellowstone's' most <
famous geyser, has slightly changed
the period of -Its eruptions.
According to the observations of the
park naturalist and the rangers, the
geyser now spouts on an average
every 64.6 minutes. Last year the av
erage period .was 60 minutes.
The alteration In Old Faithful's j
"tempo" does not Indicate any lessen- j
Ing of Its vigor or "faithfulness." On
the contrary, Naturalist M. P. Skin
ner's observations show the mighty
fountain to be Increasing in volume.
The change Is believed to be due to j
an alteration In the subterranean tube
of the geyser.
For the last year or so Old Faithful
has acquired a habit of occasionally
throwing out small rocks. The pas
sage of th* rocks through the tube Is
believed to have enlarged Its dimen- [
ilons 'slightly, this In turn being re- >
sponsible^ for the lengthened period be
tween eruptions and the Increased vol- j
uroe of water. _

changes, lending a constantly varying

That Word "Corker."
The American word Hcorker,w mean
ing a person or thing of superlative
quality, is only a slang use of a legiti
mate English word. _ Corker, in its ,
original sense, meant a conclusive ar- !
guinent. It probably originated frpm
the finality which a cork thrust into
the mouth of a bottle stops all egress,
or ingress of material in it
The relegation of the word as used
in America to the limbo of slang by
tlie dictionary writers has neither
weakened the word nor limited its use.
The- word "corker" is a perfectly
good word. It expresses precisely a
shade of meaning that needed to be
expressed, and the chances are that it
will be a word of good and regular

Unprecedented Grafting Operation Re*

Hornell. N. Y,-*-A blind boy has
been made to see with eyes from a
dying man. That was the information
given here wheirtt was said the re
raarkable operation on John Klchber
ger, nineteen, of this city, is about to
prove a complete success.
About four years ago young Eichber
ger lost his sight after being struck in
the face by a stone. Last August he
was taken to the Mount Sinai hospital
,where an operation was performed. It.,
was only partly successful, the youth
being able to distinguish light from
darkness.
After two more operations, It was
found that the irises were so diseased
that the case wss hopeless. The sur
geons then decided to transfer live
and healthy irises to Hlchberger's eyes
from another man In the hospital who
had no chance to live. As soon as the
healthy IrlsSs were connected with the
live nerves sight began to return to ,
Elchberger. *
Improvement was slow but steady.
The case is said to have progressed to
such a point that the hospital sur
geons are absolutely certain that the
operation wfll become a complete suc
cess and that the patient will be ablt
to see as well as he ever did.

How to so pickle newspaper*, tllai
they can be preserved indefinitely la

has apparently been solved, according
to the American Paper and Pulp asso
ciation.
Eight years of experimehtlngc par
ticipated in by tfcree big New tork
newspapers at a cost of $5,000 year
each, under the supervision or tba
New York public library, has taagftt
librarians how to preserve for poster
ity newspaper ilea. The solution
seems simple, bataff the. mounting of
each newspaper ahlftt' between two
sheets of thin Japanese tissue, shot
ting the air front the Original sheets,
reducing its leijibllftjLbut slightly, and
strengthening the page. Bound vol
umes of the mounted pages are now
In constant daily use, and are free
from the wear aat tear which de
stroyed the untreated newspapers.
The New York experiments have
been so successful that a big Western
newspaper has sent representatives to
?New York to study and adopt the
practice for use t&ere.
The first Investigation wss made la
Boston, and the library there fried to
persuade the newspaper* . to print
library editions m an extra paper,
but the expense was too great, lfcfo
