E. Bnrt Murdered nls Wife and Two Children. AUSTIN. July 30 W. E.

Burt, a member of one of the best famides of the city, murdered his wile and two children, aged two and four ears. last Friday night, and placed the dead bodies in a cistern. The crime was discovered this morning His residence adjoined the business portion and a foul stench led to an investigation. Ha left the city Saturday night after committing the terrible deed, and informed several of the neighbors not to drink the water as it was polluted by a dead cat. The wife was asleep.

He bound her in a blanket and dropped her struggling body into a cistern. Both children had their brains knocked out. A reward of has been offered for Burt's apprehension. simple Explanation ef an InierestiSL Operation. One of the marvcU of rnodera science the conversion of a beam cf light into sound.

The light my thrown through 11 lens on a glais vessel containing lampblack, colored silk, worsted, or other substances. A uUh having slits or openings cut In it is made to revolve swiftly in this beam of light so as to cut it up, mating alternate flashes of light and shadow. On putting the ear to the glasyessel, strange eonnds are heard so long as the flashing beam Is falling upon It. Another phase of this remarkable discovery is still more In teresting. A beam of sunlight is passed through a prism.

The disk is turned and the colored light of the solar spectrum is made to break through it. If the ear be placed to the vessel containing the silk, wool 01 other material, as the colored lights fall upon it, sounds will be given by different pans of the spectrum and there will be silence In some other parts. To illustrate, if the vessel contains red worsted and the green light flashes upon It, loud sounds will be heard. Only feeble sounds will be heard if the red and bine rays fall npon it and other eolors make no sound at all. Green silk gives sound best in red light.

It is by no means improbable that this discovery foreshadows a new law of harmonics, and Remington's experiments in tone color may possibly, by this new application of sight and sound, result in some practical theory which will give us an entirely new scheme of music. The thing is but In Its infancy, but the mere fact that such a discovery has been made cannot but forecast important results. In ventlon. Telling Fortunes With Apples, There are three fortunes to be told with an apple. Peel the fruit without breaking the skin, and holding the long spiral skin daintily by the end swing it three times around the head and let It fall to the ground.

Whatever letter the skin then forms is the initial of the sweetheart or friend who loves you best. Then, before eating your apple, have some one "name it," as they say, and after you have saved all the seeds begin to count them thus: One, I love; twe, I love; three, I love I say; Four, I love with all my heart. And five, I cast away. she loves; seven, he loves; eight, both love. Ine, he ccmes ten, he tarries Eleven, he courts, and twelve, he marries.

A more amusing fortune ia that of placing a fresh apple seed on each eyelid and naming each. The one which remains there longest the truest and best. A famous custom consists of pouring a very little molten lead into a tnb of cold water. There follow a splashing and hissing as the lead cool, suddenly, and the shape of the lead reveals the future. Just as in all oracles ever since the days of Delphi and Diana of the Ephesians the scientlfio work lies in reading the doubtful forecasts aright.

(Manager Griffin has signed Lovett, the twlrler, to pitch for Scranton the remainder of the season. He will pitch his first game at Albany on Saturday. Lovett is an old Boston pitcher and did effective work last year for the Prodvidence, R. team. He began this season one of the Eastern aggregations in western New York and it was from there Manager Griffin secured him.

While ai this talk is going on about third basemen of the league, it would be well to notk the work of a quiet young man who is playing around in iihut territory for Pawtuoket. Cough lin is not a great batter, but he Is as fine a fielder as tlure is to be found. He goes tor everi tiiing and makes very few errors. This is his first year in any thing like fast company and hts future can snly be Imagined. 'Pawtucket Ocug'hlin is a Scranton boy and received his elemenairy base ball instruction among the amateur teams In this city.

Last season he played third base for the Y. M. C. A. team and made a good record.

His friends here are gtad of his ewess. The phenomiruil sucess the Cincin natis is the talk of the basaball world. Out of tha last twrty two games they have won nineteen, an unusa.1 record. Their fine play is solely due to the clever management of Puck Ewmg. die knows how to handle betll players, and with ab solute control he has never failed to make his team win.

If Cincinnati wins the pennant or gota into the Temple Cup series Ewing's army of friends here will be happy. He deserves a big re ception when his men next appear at the Pok grounds. N. 1. Sun.

Manager Barnie seems to be having his 'troubles this season. THE CAST OF A BELL.

It Is an Interesting Process Which Few Founders Hare Mastered. The operation of cutting a bell Is most Interesting one. The Bus whereon and wherein the mold is made consists of two parts constructed of boiler iron of a general boll form and plentifully perforated with holes for escaping gas while casting, one being so much less in size than its fellow as to give space for the loam forming around the mold between the two. No "pattern," as the term is generally nsed, is provldad. The two parts of the mold are "swept" by "formers," accurately finished from thin iron to the form intended for the Innef and outer surfaces of tho bell.

These "formers" are mounted and rotated over the applied loam. Five courses of loam and clay are successively applied, "swept" and baked, to complete each mold. Before this work is done, however, the Inner flask is wound near the top with a rope made of hay. As the shrinkage Is very great as the eastings cool, difficulty would be met with In getting the flask and loam out of the nearly parallel Inside top. This "pinch" is obviated by using this destructible base, which permits tho collapse of the loam after the heat of the metal has consumed the hay.

The five courses laid on the flasks are: Loam, a mixture of loam, fire clay and manure; two successive coatings of powdered fire clay, and, lastly, a thin coating of brick and lire clay combined with foun dry lacing. Eaen of these coatings is baked in an oven before the succeeding one is applied. The coatings are "swept" by the formers, as applied, both in the inner and outer flask, by careful adjustments as to thickness of materials, so that when the exterior mold is ptaced over the Interior space corresponding to the intended thickness and shape of the bell shall exist. Inscriptions or erubellishmenot be made npon the bell are provided for with tho last coatim? by means of a "knurl," or wheel, having the desired motto raised upon its periphery, tho wheel being carefully rolled around the soft surface and leaving its imprint In the clay. Other do signs are impressed from dies of the required ornament, aud the usual "beading" is accomplished by notches in the edge of the sweep.

The two parts of the flask being placed together ore firmly hold in position by many clamps, the tendency of hot bell metal to squeeze through and force a separation of flasks being very great. As the mold nears completion a Are is started in a near by reverbcratory furnace, in which is placed the desired charge of copper, and when the copper is molted tho tin is added in its proportion. The molted metal being ready, the furnace Is tapped, the bright stream caught in a huge ladle swung over the mold by a crane and poured into tho open mouth of the mold until it Is filled. After cooling and removal from the mold the bell is usually polished with sand and water in special revolving grinding machines. The taugue and ohippcr, the yoke and wheel are now attached and the whole suspended in its frame.

In making a chime the bolls are, after completion, temporarily set up and regularly tested by skilled bell ringers, from the permanent chiming stand of the foundry. Milwaukee Wisconsin. A CURIOUS LOVE STORY. It All Began With a Punch In the Nose and Ended Happily. Here's a curious story of love and courtship: A few years ago a young gentleman of this city, while in Savannah, got into a street car with a heavy umbrella under his arm.

Like a great many other careless people ho held it at a dangerous angle, with the point sticking out behind him, and ere long the car gave a lurch and a lady Jnst behind him emitted an ear splitting scream. Evorybody jumped and looked, and to his horror the young man found that the point of his umbrella had come in contact with the nose of the young lady seated just behind him. Of course ho apologized, or tried, but it was like apologizing for murder over the body of the vlo tim, for the lady's nose was bleeding and she was almost in convulsions with pain. Tho car was stopped at the next corner, where there happened to be a drug store, and the ycong man, aided and abetted by one or two elderly ladies, who at once took a lively interest In the case, helped the young lady off and into the store and posted off after a doctor. One was found, and the unlucky nose was soon put in working order, and the owner, attended by tho married ladies, was sent home in a carriage.

The yonng man took her address and hunted up a mutual acquaintance, with whom he called tho next day to see how the nose was getting along. The nose did well, so did the young man, for by the time the nose was out of danger he hud got in the habit of calling, so that it became natural for him to step around in the evening. So in the course of time they were married, and1 she Is tho only lady In the United States whose courtship began by a punch In the nose from her future husband. Athens (Ga.) News.
