On q weather worn bark that is moored
to q dock in South Washington tonight
there is little chap with q remarkable
history. he is 2 years old. his name is
Garfield Slocum, and he is the son Of
Capt. Slocum. who has just arrived here
in q small boat from a 1000 mile sail
from South America. Garfield was born
in 1881 in Hong Kong, China, and was
named in honor Of President Garfield by
Col. Mosby, consul at that point. The
boy has travelled not less than ga, 900
miles, including two voyages around the
world, and has touched his foot upon the
soil Of the three Americas, Europe, Aisa,
Africa and any quantity Of islands,
and been clear around Australia. His
last trip on the Libertad, boat thirty
five feet long. carrying only four tons,
was 1000 miles long, sea voyage un-
paralleled for q vessel of the size. His
father, mother and elder brother were
his companions. At times they were
1000 miles from land. and the frail little
craft met dangerous storms, but came
through safely. Garfield is good sailor
and has never shown any fear of the sea.
In fact be does not know anything but
the sea. having never lived on land longer
than two weeks at time. This Lib
ertad trip. however, did not strike him
very favorably. and the first night on
board the small boat, when he knelt at
his mothers knee to say his prayers. he
looked around q moment and doubtingly
remarked: mamma, this boat isn't big
enough to pray in."-Washington Cor.

Doubtless most Of you think when you
see the performances Of trained horses In
the circuses Of today that . great ad-
vance has been made In educating the
animals over what was done in ancient
times. But you are mistaken, for even the
most wonderful exploits Of the horses Of
the present day are repetitions q what
was done with them several hSedfe3
years ago. In those days horses lnoEonH
danced upon their hind legs, but fought
mock battles, striking at their enemies
with their fore feet, and showing Whist
appeared to be remarkable inteakgence.
Perhaps the most surprising feat ever
performed by horse was In the olden
time. A large three sided braided rope
was stretched several feet from the
ground, and upon this the horse walked,
preserving its balance perfectly. In IN
old print q picture Of the act b shown,
while another cut represents . horse
striking the shield Of q soldier with its
hoofs. Even the elephant, generally
considered the most ungainly Of animals,
was trained in those days to walk the
tight rope, not only near the ground, but,
If we may believe the old writer's, it

of the audience, and not only preserved
its balance. but bore q man upon its

Its queer the way people are affected

q dental surgeon. ''SOme no sooner

''But the strangest thing about both

will doubtless be appreciated, as il saves
both time and labor: Choose . dull day,
or at least q time when the sun h not
shining on the window, for when the
sun shines on the window Il causes II to be
dry streaked, no matter how much il Is
rubbed. Take . pa.nter'ssbrus and dust
them inside and out, washing all the
wood work inside before touching the
glass. The latter must be washed SIM
ply in warm water diluted with ammo
nia-do not use soap. Use . small cloth
with a pointed stick to get the dust out
Of the corners; wipe dry with soft
piece of cotton cloth-do not use linen,

Wrestling With n Beaz

A couple Of hunters from the Catskills
followed bear trail for three days
Near Sundown. charming little nook.
entirely shut in by great mountain
peaks, the hunters came suddenly upon
they prey. There was an old bear and
three good sized cubs. They all ran for
their lives at sight of the hunters, but
Levi Small rushed headlong in pursuit Of
ono of the cubs that had made o sense
less detour. and, slipping on bit Of
treacherous ice, he went tobogganing
down the side of the mountain. The cub
was tripped up by one Of Small's cow
hide boots. and the shaggy yOungster
took funny tumble along with the
hunter. Seeing her offspring in danger,
the old bear rushed to the scene. but the
companion Of Small fred shot with
such good effect that Bruin fell in her
tracks Another ball finished the game,
and then attention was directed to the
impromptu tobogganer, who was having
a rough and tumble fight with the cub.
It was quickly dispatched and the other
cubs were taken alive. - Philadelphia

The satellite Of Nept.ne.


N. Tisserand has presented . report
to the Paris Academy Of Sciences con-
cerning some remarkable observationSnf
the satellite Of the planet Neptune,
which was discovered in 1S47. Tho an
gle which the plane Of the orbit Of this
satellite made at that date with the eclip-
tic was about 50 degs.. but this angle has
now increased by at least degs. The
satellite moves round its principal in IN
opposite direction to that usually fol-
lowed by other satellites, SO that ques-
ton might be raised whether in the
course of time this variation in the in
clination of the plane Of its orbit might
not end in its movement around its prin-
cipsl becoming normal II. Tsserand
showed that this variation of inclination
was due to the oblate or fattened con-
dition Of Neptune at its poles. and that
it will complete its limit within period
of SOD years. ut the end of which timo il
will again bc as it was in 1S47.-Scien-
