For u Young Couple.

What Is needed to insure u larger de-
gree of happiness in this world is moral
independence and moral principle. The
notion that the end is attained when
the altar is reached is almost Grim
inal mistake. That is not the end; it
is only the beginning. As rough
farmer once said, ''to marry and love
each other for few months is as easy
as rolling off log; but to love each
other right along for forty years, up
hill and down, well, it's quite job"
There is hard work before a young
couple. They must get used to each
other, make mutual concessions, get
their plans, aims, interests to work
smoothly in double harness. There is
too much kicking in the traces, too
strong Il desire to have ones own wav,
too little forbearance, an insistence
upon ones rights, but forgetfulness
of ones duties.
Then 1t is well to remember that at
20 you can't have what you will per-
haps be able to buy when you are so,
if you are economical. Young people
spend too freely, are unwilling to
pinch themselves in order to have
a surplus, delight in show, and
are apt to live beyond their means

How They Catch Fish In Georgia.

Last Monday morning it was our
pleasure to go a-fishing with party in
Alapaha, near Grover, and see how fish
are caught the "new way" From four
to six men 60 into the water with a
log in front of them, and a sheet with
one edge on the log and the other edge
held up by the men so that the fish
can't jump over, but fall on the sheet.
The log is pushed along to the land,
and when near it the fish begin to try
to make their escape back to the deep
water by jumping. If they fail to
make good leap they lodge on the
cloth, thereby becoming victims of
their own destruction. 1t is amusing
to see how they jump. 1t is supposed
that about 500 pounds were caught

the eliminating words. lie understood
the man in front OF him as well as i.
he had always known him.
''Let's see if it is money!" ne asked
pleasantly.
! "Must / open it?' asked Eben
meekly. He no longer had any though
of defiance.
The Inspector nodded, still silent
and Eben opened the satchel. There
was a brown paper parcel inside tieC
carefully with a string.
"Open the package" said the Inspec.
tor, smiling slightly for the first time
and EbeD united the string There
was nothing inside but lot of scrap:
of slightly stained white paper.
The unhappy man was stunned. He
fumbled the paper for a moment
and then sprang to his feet, desperate
with rage and humiliation. "He has
robbed me! He has robbed me ~ he
cried, and started to run out of the
room in a wild, vain search.
The Inspector did not move. "Sit
down." he said, coolly; and the ter
rified countryman sat down and burst
out crying like child.
"You thought you had some coun-
terfeit money, did you not?" asked
the merciless Inspector, after a short
pause; and Eben broke down fairly
and squarely. With the tears still
streaming down his face he told his
whole story, while the Inspector lis
tened silently.
"You'l have to go to court" he said
at length, when Eben had finished.
"But," he added, kindly, as the coun-
tryman started in terror, "you are
only witness, you know. We want
your testimony to convict the man who
has robbed you"
Then he rang bell and lilly reap
peared with suspicious quickness, and
Eben was led away, stunned and help
less. He carried his satchel with him,
hardly knowing why, but unable to
let go of even the shadow of his
dreams.
He never knew how he got there,
but he was presently in the Tombs Po-
lice Court. Mr.. "Jac&son" was there
too, and was much cooler than he was
Justice Duffy was on the bench, and
listened grimly while the officers told
of the arrest; and the hapless Eben
was forced once more to tell what had
happened to him.
1t was all like dream; but he re-
membered afterward to have heard the
justice say: prisoner held for the
Grand Jury. Complainant committed
TO the House of Detention"
II might as well have been Greek so
far as Eben Witherwax was concerned,
for he understood nothing of what he
meant. What he did presently un-
derstand was that he was locked up in
n place that seemed like a prison to
him, and was told that unless he could
furnish bond for one hundred dol
lars he would be kept there till Mr.
"Jackson' was brought 10 trial. Mr..
"Jackson," they told him, had given
bail and was at large, but Eben would
have died rather than ask any of his
friends to bail him out.
He felt, however, that he must tell
his mother, and he wrote her the
truth.
In the sad correspondence that fol-
lowed, and was kept up for over three
months, one item of news his mother
sent was, "Nancy Halliday is engaged
to Frank Turner "-EGleS- Curtis.

THE COLOR OF WAR VESSELS.
Secretary Tracy orders that they have
a Uniform Appearance.

Experience with our steel vessels has
confirmed that of other nations who
use steel as the material for the con-
struction of their cruisers, and we find
that painting them black or even straw
color makes them so hot and uncom-
Portable in the tropics that the quarter
in the easements and down below on
the side on which the sun strikes are
hardly habitable.
During the Centennial naval display
numerous comments were made as tC

of-war. Some We're black hulls witt
straw-colored spars; others black hulls
with straw-colored superstructure and
upper works; others white with black
smokestack, and one black hull and
white smokestack.
To correct this want of uniformity,
as well as to add to the comfort of the
officers, the Secretary of the Navy has
issued the following order, which, as
may be seen, applies to steel or iron
vessels. The wooden ships remain as
heretofore-with black hulls and
smokestack and straw -colored, OF SPAR
colored, masts and yards. The Boston
is already white, and the Chicago and
Yorktown will appear in their new
colorings on the next cruise. Follow
ing is the Secretary's order:
Hereafter all iron or steel vessels
of the navy will be painted as follows:
"Hull outside above load water line
and bulwarks inside to be painted white.
"Masts, bowsprits doublings, smoke
stacks and all yards to be painted
light straw-color, now in use for spars.
"With view to proper economy
this order will not go into effect on
board any vessel until it is found
necessary to repaint her then it will
be done in accordance with the method
prescribed by the Bureau of Ccnstruc-
ton and Repair in its circular of this
date"

Six Legs for Two.

Two mild-eyed, pink-nosed, bawling
calves, the property of W. j. Smith,
are creating considerable of a sensation
among the curious people of South
Minneapolis. The calves are twins,
about three months old, and they have
only six legs between them. One of
the creatures is without fore leg and
the other is minus hind leg, but they
are pretty little animals and hop about
as briskly as you please, apparently
not understanding that nature has
cheated them out of one of the legs
that are the due of every well-regu-
lated calf,

years a surgeon in the navy. Miss
Clymer is thirty-nine years old, and is
a distant relative of the Bayard family,
with whom she has been acquainted all
