THE MAYFLoWER.
Interesting Facts Concerning the Vessel
That Landed the Pilgrims.

Interesting Facts Concerning the Vessel
That Landed the Pilgrims.
A new training brig has recently been
launched at the Pembroke dockyard in
England. This latest conner in the En-
glish navy has been christened May
flower, the last of a long line of vessels
of that name. This has brought out the
interesting and little known fact that
the Pilgrims Mayfower of 1920 was at
one time an English war ship. The
name is one of the oldest ship names in
the English navy, going back to 1415,
when vessel with that name carried
some of the knights who fought at
Agincourt across the channel. Her sue
cessor-the Mayfower of 1447-was the
flagship of Richard, Duke of Gloucester.
But the Mayfower of 1920 was an old
Armada veteran long before she came
across the Atlantic, and took a promi-
ment part in that historic sea fight in
1888, fighting alongside of Brakes Re-
venge and Hawkins Victory. In the
fight off Gravelines, when the Armada
made last desperate attempt to save
itself from utter rout, the Mayfower's
part was a prominent one. According
to a recent writer in the London Graphic,
the ship was one of the chief ones
contributed to Queen Elizabeth's fleet
by the merchants of the city Of London,
but Goodwin's Pilgrim Republic states
that the officials of Lynn offered the
Mayfower (15O tons) to join the fleet
against the dreaded Spanish Armada.
The Graphic enormously implies that
the Mayfower ended her days ing1ori-
ously in the slave trade between Guinea
and America. Goodwin, in reference te
this rumor, says that the SLAYER May
flower was ship of $50 tons, while the
Pilgrim vessel was only $50. The latter
came to Salem in 1929. and the last
known Of her was when she was one OF
feet that landed John Winthrop and
his colonists at Charlestown in 1880

COLLECTING BAD DEBTS.
A Chicago Man Has New Scheme which
Works Every Time.


Works Every Time.
Away out where Blue Island avenue
intersects the prairie there lives a bad
debt collector named John Smiley, whose
ingenuity deserves a better recompense
than it obtains.
When all other means Of collecting a
debt have failed recourse is had to
Smiley. Only the desperate cases are
given to him, as he charges so per cent.
commission on his collection. The other
day he went into downtown office to
collect a bill of $50. His dress was
funereal, his face sanctimonious, his
eyes beatific in their upward roll In
one hand he carried small vial, in the
other the bill which he was trying to
collect.
This is the fourth time have called,
said he, in sepulchral tones. 81 am a
poor man; l am desperate. It is not
worth the throw of die to me whether
| live or die. My inability to collect
this bill has almost driven me out Of my
mind. See this" holding out a vial,
''and see this" holding out the paper.
"One is bottle of strychnine and the
other is a bill against you for $40.
Either you pay the bill or l take the

this bill. That will be in all the news

licity won't hurt me then, because I'll
be dead; but you can judge of the effect
such statement will have upon you. "
Smiley's aspect grew still more

hand fumbled nervously at the stopper
of the bottle.
'Well, here's your 500. Now get out.
I didn't give it to him because 1 thought

the debtor, ''but because he's got new

THE MOCK IMPRoMPTU.
The Be Way to Extemporize Is to Pre-
pare Carefully Beforehand.

The Be Way to Extemporize Is to Pre-
pare Carefully Beforehand.
OF all impromptu speeches the one
that is prepared beforehand is likely to
be the best. There are good reasons for
this. An alligator, tired of basking in
the sun, will slide off into the BAYOU
with considerable ease and some ele-
gance if allowed to perform the ma
neuyer in his own time. If the alligator
is hurried, however, by unfriendly man,
the descent into the water becomes
panicky scramble ending in a splash.
Orators are like alligators in this. They
can not tumble with grace into eloquence
unless they have time to consider the
operation. The best impromptu speak
ers in all ages have made it rule never
to speak without preparation. From
Demosthenes down to Chaun3 3ey Depew
the private motto of the extemporaneous
speaker has been "Semper paratus,"
which, freely translated, means with
speech on hand" Perhaps Demosthenes
went to extreme in anticipation. He
grudged no labor to make the least part
of his orations perfect, and it is improb-
able that he always tried to make his
Athenian audiences believe that his
speeches were ectenepore. Those who have
succeeded him in the rostrum have not
always been so candid. Parliamentary
debate often demands the appearance of
spontaneous utterance, and it has
greater weight than speech which is
evidently the result of antecedent study.
The charms of the impromptu are not
confined to the political grafton or the
after-dinner speech. The divine in the
pulpit who can simulate, if not actually
practice, extemporaneous preaching has
the advantage of him who reads from
manuscript, or refers occasionally to
notes. On the stage nothing is so
likely to make hit as action or word
that appears to be born of the occasion.
Actors are we'll aware of this and not
seldom prepare impromptus, usually in
the shape of topical illusions. Mr. JEFF
ferson, although above the use of mere
local gags" is one of the great actors
who knows how to simulate spontaneity
in expression of voice and face, so that
the audience is brought to believe that
piece of carefully conceived and prac-
ticed by-play is the result of the mo-
ment's suggestion. In short, there is no
limit to the value of extemporizing,
whether it be practiced in Congress, in
church, at the dinner-table or on the
stage. And the best way to extempo-
rize is, as we have said, to prepare care
fully beforehand. Of course there is
such thing as the genuine impromptu
but it is a very rare thing indeed, and
as compared with the mock article, it's
success is rarer still.-Pittsburgh Dis
patch.

is THE SUN PEoPLED4
A New Theory of the Universe Founded
the Law of tIActien.o

OA TIC Law OF 'AcIleus
A recent number of the Arena con.
tains an interesting article by Stephen
NJ. Allen, A. NJ, upon the newly dis
covered law of ''Actien,'' which, if the
theories concerning it are correct, will
deal a severe blow to the preconceived
ideas concerning the formation of worlds.
The writDr explains that actien is
Imposed to be surplus energy or fluid
thrown off from central suns toward
their planets, having a direct and posi-
tive agency in the original creation of
the universe. The new law supposes
that our sun, through it's axial revolu-
ton, is constantly throwing off actienic
force, which is primarily neither heated
nor luminous, but which passes through
etherlc space into the atmosphere of
the earth, where, through combustion,
light, heat, electricity and magnetism,
are produced. In corroboration of the
theory, it is asserted that, if the sun
were the incandescent mass it has been
held to be, the heat radiated from it
would, in passing through the 100000
degrees of cold which are known to
exist in the space separating our sun
from the earth, cease long before it
reached our atmosphere. That darkness
also relgns in the regions of the sun is
likewise incontestible. At seven miles,
the highest point reached by man, the
sky is found to be dark and somber, and
the rays of the sun are so dim that it re-
sembles copper-colored moon.
The theory makes provision for the
light and heat Of our solar orb This is
supplied to it in the form of actienic
force from the parent sun. Lastly, the
conclusions reached are that the sun is
not an intensely heated body, that it
possesses an atmosphere and that it is
provided with a moderate amount of
light and heat. For these reasons there
is no longer any reason, says the writer.
for believing it uninhabitable The ac-
tienic process of world formation is thus
described: "The surplus force thrown off
from the sun at once aggressively enters
etheric space with a positiveness that
overcomes all resistance. A conflict en-
sues between action, the positive, and
ether, the negative principle, resulting
in the birth and construction of automic
and molecular substances, both ponder
able and imponderable, which fly off into
space, but which are used in the con-
struction of globe"
These substances are finally aggre-
gated and held by attraction. They are
formed into nucleus, which, still un-
der the influence of original actienic and
etheric decompositions, in time forms a
globe. From this point, the theory CO.
incides with the principles generally re-
ceiVed concerning cosmic forces and in
fuences, and the WORK of formation is
supposed to be continued according to
the principles already known.

The Largest Cake Ever Made.

The 'iubilee cake" presented to
Queen Victoria by the Messrs. Gunter,
the famous London purveyors, in June,
1887, was a triumph of the bakers and
eonfectioners' art. It was feet 6 inches
In circumference, 10 feet high, and
weighed over 600 pounds without the
decorations, which alone were over 800
pounds. The design was that of crown,
guarded by lions and surmounted by a
temple bearing figures of Fame and
Glory, each holding trumpets in their
hands, heralding the jubilee to the four
quarters of the world. These, again,
were surmounted by temples with min
gled figures Of Peace. The panels of
the base we're embroidered in gold on
white satin, bearing the royal mono
gram, while between them were figures
in relief representing the four quarters
of the world. Between the lions which
guarded the crown were medallions
bearing portraits of her Majesty and the
prince consort as they appeared on the
wedding day in 1910. Other portraits
represented her Majesty at various ages,
the last being from the photograph
taken in May, 18S7.-Notes and Queries.

In my humble Judgment there has
never been brought to the attention of
the people of Roanoke an enterprise that
was hall SO important as this, for it not

in your rush for gain, and consider this

thoughtful, rational consideration of
the subject, you can justify yourselves
in refusal to contribute to this much
needed enterprise, we shall be painfully
disappointed cannot believe the poo
pie Of Roanoke will allow an enterprise
like this to fail for want of few thous-
