Toronto Has a. Sea-Serpent,

The morning was cool, and perhaps
this was the reason why some OF the
workmen engaged at the targets on the
Garrison ranges say the serpent they
saw was not more than fifty feet long
and the size of mans body. The
story, rs told by one of them, is in SUBJ
stance as follows: Between and 9
o'clock, while placing the targets in po-
sition on No. l range, n boy rushed up
saying that there was II queer thing
floating near the shore. Some of the
men were curious enough to leave their
work and hasten down to the shore
There, sure enough, was large BLUSH
gray mass floating lazily near the shore.
1t had every appearance OF being asleep,
as its body yielded to every ripple. Part
was submerged, but the upper portion
of the head floated just above the water.
That part which was visible was covered
with short, stiff bristles in front, which
increased in length toward the sides.
and extended for distance of about
ten feet on each side. The back, or at
least that portion of it which appeared
above the water, was lighter colored
than the head. A good view was had
of the monster for upward of three
minutes, when, suddenly raising its
head out of the water, it gave swish
with its tail and started directly south,
in the direction of one of the steamers.
Its head. as it raised it above the water,
was very much like that of an eel, with
the exception of the long, trailing hair
or whiskers. Its eyes were small, and
rs it dashed off one of the men said he
thought he heard it give short, sharp
bark. A line of foam marked its pro-
gress out into the lake for about half a
mile, when, turning sharp around, it
dashed toward the Exhibition wharf,
and again out into the lake, where they
soon lost sight of it. The men did not
appear at all anxious to speak of the
matter, as they feared their veracity
would be questioned. AS it is, their
story is given for what it is worth, but
surely the word of three men who saw
it is worth that of thirty who did not
see it.-1oronto Mail.

A Tornedo Launch.

There are many interesting phases Of
life at Newport (writes n correspond
ent upon which one may hope to find
time to touch. but tho diversified chap
pening things" of this week rightly
claim present attention. Monday dawn
ing clear and bright after hot Sunday,
showed the New York yacht squadron
in the harbor, and promised most in
teresting exhibition in the afternoon at
the torpedo station, to which Captain
Selfridge Gan old Boston boy) had bid
den a number of his friends. including,
besides large delegation from the
aforesaid yachts, Chief Justice Waite
and Mr.. Justice Blatchford, of the SUI
preme court, ex-Gov. Morgan. and u
number of others. After salute of
seventeen torpedoes had been success
fully fired, we had an opportunity of
witnessing the most wonderful perform
ances of the torpedo launch invented by
Lieut.. Mclean, U. S. N, of which it
seems to me that far too little notice
has thus far been taken. Suppose we
wish to attack n certain port, and the
entrance to its barbor is thiclxly sown
with the most deadly of modern fixed
torpedoes. Naturally we wish to destroy
those torpedoes, or at least break all
the connections with them. Well, along
side vessel mile away from the OBJ
jective point lies Misunderstanding lit
tie launch without soul on board; and
on the deck of said vessel stand two ma
val officers, one of them with his fingers
on the keys of just such little box as
the late Jim Fisk used to call the heads
of the departments of the Erie railway.
''Go ahead" says the officer, looking
through his glass. His comrade de-
presses the index finger, and the launch
starts straight to its destination. "Star-
board q littler Down goes his forefin-
ger ''Starboard it isl and, like q
thing of life, the boat turns. STEADY!
Port littler' and again it obeys. This
is not the Alaska, but it is making good
time, and coming up to the line of tor
pedoes. OF course the enemy is firing
at it, but it is small object, and there
are no lives to risk. '.Stop her. Let

sion, a volume of water rises into the

miral can make the signal for the adj
vance. Something like this happened
on Monday, on a reduced scale. There
was no enemy to speak Of, and every
body was so friendly that none could be
improvised, but do not see why this
wonderful launch should not do in real
war just as well as it did at Goat Island.

A Readers Complaint.

have never wished that had been
born in some other century than the
nineteenth. Our age, if not pictures
que one-and l think it has its pictures
que aspects-is, without doubt, the most
comfortable to live in, take it on the
whole, the world has yet known. 1t
seems to me that persons of rational
mind and humane disposition cannot be
too thankful to belong to it, for it is
hard to see how such persons could ever
have enjoyed life in earlier times as we
of the latest days can. The world has
certainly gone forward, and the feature
of its progress that ! chiefly rejoice in
is its advance in humanity. The elder
world-the world but very little elder
than our own-was such q terribly cruel
one! The only objection to living in the
present time that know of is the in
creased quantity of things one must
know, or would like to know. Eight
eenth-century people didn't have to read
Lecky's history of their times in four
volumes, or a hundred thousand other
books it now seems obligatory upon all
cultivated persons to acquaint them
selves with. Nowadays one is required
to read small library every year, if
one would have even a smattering of
knowledge on the various subjects that
invite an intelligent mans interest. The
specialists, in the abundance of whom
we glory, carry Investigations so farfor-
ward, each in his own line, that the
general reader cannot hope to do more
than accept number of things at Sec
ond hand, or be content to have no I'M
derstanding of them at all. 1t is hard
to resign ones self to ignorance of so
many interesting matters, and yet that
is what one seems driven to. One finds
that the first thing to learn is show
much need not be known" which is
perhaps q sort of sour-grapes wisdom,
but apparently the only wisdom obtain
able.-At[aGtic

Egyptian Soldiers.

Colonel Dye has much to say con-
corning the fighting capacity of the fall
lahin, and seeing that he speaks from
experience, gained both in the barrack
and the field, his structures possess ut
the present moment Il more than ordinary
value. His estimate of the Egyptian
PEASANTS soldierly aptitude is very low.
Through gifted with n wonderful power
of physical endurance, and n docile and
q good campaigner, the fellah is neith-
er combative nor intelligent, has not q
spark ofpatriotism, dislikes and dstrusts
his officers, and hates soldering with so
intense n hatred that. in order to avoid
it, he will often cut off one of his fingers
or put out one of his eyes. When Col.
Dye was in Egypt the artillery, as we'll
as the cavalry, consisted exclusively of
fellahin. The gunners were taken from
class superior to that which supplied
recruits to the other arms of the SER
vice. The officers, moreover, were bet
ter instructed than their brethren of the
line, an advantage which they owed to
the exertions of the commandment of the
artillery school, highly educated
French officer. To the teaching of this
Frenchman probably the stout defense
made recently by the forts at Alexan-
dria is in some measure due. A great
drawback to the efficiency of the fellah
as fighting man is the shortness of his
sight, resulting from ophthalmia. So
defective is the vision of Egyptian sol
diers, says Col. Dye, that hardly any of
them can see further through rifle
sight than few rods. The eyes of the
black soldiers are better. Under the
same conditions he can mark 80 to 40
per cent more hits than his Egyptian
comrade. This superior shooting may,
however, be in part due to the negroes
greater nerve, confidence and eagerness
to excel. The black regiments, being
differed exclusively by Egyptians, are
in no way better organized than the
other regiments; albeit, the negroes being
Injured from childhood to war and the
chase, they make far better fighting
material than the fellahin. With the
exception of few who have risen from
the ranks, the higher officers are the de-
scendants of Turkish fathers and Cir
cassan mothers. They are generally
sufficiently brave, but cruel, avaricious,
corrupt and fearfully immoral, mentally
inert and physically lazy. The younger
regimental and staff officers are, for the
most part, the sons of pashas and beys
in government service, trained in the
military schools established by Ismail.
They are inferior, morally and physic-
ally, to the men they command.

Late Tests With Improved Gatlings.

Thorough test trials have been in
progress at Sandy Hook with DR.. Cat
ling improved guns, before the United
States Ordnance Board, for the past two
weeks. These trials, which have been
eminently successful, may be prolonged
for another week. Dr. Calling was
present during the first ten days. The
new feed allows the musket-caliber Cat
ling to be fired at any degree of eleva-
ton. The penetration ut 5000 yards
was through one and half inches of
timber, and at $500 yards giving the
gun Sc degrees elevation), the bullets
struck the targets (Which were COM
posed of boards lying fiat on the ground)
passing through two one-inch boards
penetrating the sand four inches. At
1000 yards-661 elevation-the bullets
passed through two one-inch boards
and five or six inches in the sand. In
every case the bullets struck the targets
point on and retained their rotary mo-
ton. This was proved by the spiral
scratches on the balls after they had
passed through the boards. The gun is
now being tried at shorter ranges. -
These experiments have established the
fact that Calling gun fred at various
elevations can kill men in entrenched
positions at all ranges from 100 to 81
800 yards. The elevation required for
different distances is determined by a
quadrant and noted. AS the gun re-
mains quite steady while being fired,
the bullets can be made to drop at the
point desired. The value of such o
weapon of warfare is unquestioned. DR..

Mountaineers and Turkeys.

The mode of hunting wild turkeys,
adopted by the Blue Mountain hunters
of Tennessee, is to corn n suitable
part of the woods frequented by the
birds generally in old cearings.-
Corning is simply the scattering of corn
upon the ground and making choice
feeding places, that the turkeys, which
fly in fiocks, are not long in discovering.
When hunter discovers the presence
of flock in his ssfield' he corns it, and
generally feels certain that in time he
will have every one of the turkeys
bagged. When the clearing is scattered
with the corn, the hunter takes posi-
ton in it from which he has view of
the feeding-place, but where he cannot
be seen by the birds. The turkeys drop
into the clearing with a great fiutter
and much gobbling by the males. The
hunter picks out the bird he wishes to
secure on the ground, and another at
which he will shoot when they rise. He
shoots the one on the ground and the
other in the air. Large shot are used,
and heavy charges of powder, as the
feathers of the game are very close and
the skin tough. A skilful hunter rarely
fails to bring down his two birds, but q
novice usually sees both birds take
wing without any apparent damages
from his charges. 1t is almost useless
TO try to get a shot at flock of turkeys
by flushing them, as their hearing and
sight are extremely acute, and flock
always gets up and removes itself from
harms way long before the hunter is
within gunshot.
But while so willy in that respect, they
lack all semblance of shrewdness in
visiting the "corned' places. No mat
ter how large flock is, it will continue
being reducedin number by regularly
visiting the place in the morning where
it was shot at the evening before, and
in the evening after having been shot in
to in the morning. This Is kept up un-
til only one bird comes to feed where
all of its companions were killed
Sometimes, when pair of turkeys re-
main, the two will Join another flock,
and accompany it to the feeding place
it has selected.
There are many pot-hunters among
the Blue Mountain people who trap,
snare, and net the turkeys, and the le-

own weapons, was COMPOUNDED with
these Sophists. Aristophanes, in his

His teaching, which insisted more on
living n moral life than the mere formal
Observance of the service of the gods,
was said to be ''corrupting in its influ-
ence upon tho youth and undermining
all true discipline and morality" He
was accused of introducing new gods.
He was tried, and on account Of his
naughty bearing condemned to death.
He told his judges that so far from be-
ing condemned, he ought TO be support
ed atpublic expense for the rest of his
life as q benefactor of the state.
