Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals It calls attention to tne
fact that “In the fine equestrian
statue of your majesty erected at the
entrance to the new railway bridge at
Cologne the tall of the horse Is
docked" The petition sets forth that
“your majesty is no doubt aware
that the docking of the horse’s tall
constitutes one of the worst cruelties
practiced on a dumb beast” It adds
"In our humble opinion it would be
a mistake to leave the statue in Its
present form A beautiful long tall
might be put In the place of the
stump Such an alteration would not
only add much to the beauty of the
statue but would also stop adverse
criticism regarding your majesty’s
feelings toward a humane cause
The emperor has not yet replied to
the petition
Old Timber Stronger Than New
Which is the stronger a piece of
sound old timber or a piece of new?
We think It probable that the major-
ity of engineers would say that the
new timber was the stronger In
either case however the opinions
would be mere guesswork for there
has been hitherto so far as we recall
no authentic Information on this
point This lack Is now supplied in a
paper by Mr C P Buchanan In which
he shows as a result ®f careful tests
that sound timber a quarter of a cen-
tury old Is materially stronger than
new stock
Mr Buchanan’s tests were made on
white pine but there Is no reason to
suppose that oak hard pine or any
other wood commonly used In build
fng would behave differently It Is
fair to conclude that all wood main-
tains Its strength except as decay
weakens it or fire and mechanical ab-
rasion destroy it — Engineering News

Edwards strikes an old time
theme but little heard in these
days of striving when each
struggles with the other with
monei and amusement as the
I goal Mr Edwards however
E j being an invalid has time to phil-
osophise upon the change in the
customs of men since the days
of his youth as follows:
“We will suppose that next
Friday night which will be show
night that it was known that
Gabriel would leave the throne
and descend to earth to swear
by Him that liveth for ever and
ever that time shall be no longer
We will then suppose that there
were religious services at the
! four churchs in this town where
i would you go to find the great-
! est gathering at the ch urches or i
‘the show? That is the questicn
! for all of us church members to’
Consider If the Light in us be-j
: comes darkness how great is the
'dankness “Ye are the light of
the world a city set on a hi II i
that cannot be hid let your light 1
so shine — does it shine when we
walk right bv a church ard go to

Lobsters Washed Ashore In Storm
During the receut storm which was
the worst that hs swept the New
Brunswick coast in a number of years
thousands of lobsters of all sizes have
been washed ashore on the North
Beach at Rexton For a distance of
several hundred yards a reef was
formed on the shore of all sorts of fish
including an Immense quantity of rock
eels as we'l as lobsters which fish-
ermen say are more than all the traps
would secure in a season
Thousands of birds of the sea were
on the beach eating the soft part of
the lobsters and leaving only the claws
which were strewn about in all di-
rections Although there have been
many severe storms here In the past
no one recalls an event of this kind
A great many have visited the beach
to watch the gulls and other birds
ravenously enjoying the feast for them
