Infantry.

Peter the Great organized dragon gren.
adiers in 17O8 who were armed with mus
kets and bayonets, as are their descendants
of today. We need not, however, go beyond
the time of Napoleon to find a precedent for
the Russian innovation which has so scan
dalized the sabreurs of today. The car
bineers of the French army at the close of
the last century were armed with carbine,
pistol, sword and bayonct. At Austerlitz
there were still some thus equipped, and
the small musket without the bayonet was
retained during the wars of 1909, although
three years laterit, too, was cast aside when
cuirassiers became fashionable, and be-
sides these special c%arbineers, Napoleon
had a force of dragons proper-that is to
say, men trained to fight either OH foot or
in the saddle.
In 1902 there were 81 regiments composed
of such foot soldiers on horseback, although
the tendency, we are told, was for them to
turn into real cavalry, with perhaps some
greater capacity for fighting OH foot han
had the others. This tendency has ever been
inevitable, md today with us the fear is that
our mounted soldiers may if their proclivi-
ties in such q direction are not interfered
with, develop into u spurious imitation of
hussars. On the Rhine these dragons of
Napoleon did not succeed a did the cavalry,
pure and simple, and therefore they We're
sent away to Spain when war broke out in
that country.-London Saturday Review.

The Venus de NIedicis,

fury and a quarter agodeclined to be taken
in by the statue. Writing from Nice on
Feb. 5. 1765, about a visit to Florence, he
says: with respect to the famous Venus
Pontia, commonly called De Medicis, which
was found ut Tivoli and is kept in q separate
apartment called the tribuna, I believe l
ought to be entirely silent, or at least con-
ceal my real sentiments, which will other
wise appear equally absurd and presump-
tuous. 1t must he want of taste which pre-
vents my feeling that enthusiastic admira-
ton with which others are inspired at sight
of this statue. cannot help thinking that
there is no beauty in the features of Venus,
and that the attitude is awkward and out
of character London News.

THE CHATTING S
Al Article of Domestic Economy That 10
Not Very Expensive.

Not Very Expensive.
What Is the price of Il chatting dish?
During the past two or three years l have
been called upon to answer this question
many, many times, and the fad" il it may
DC 30 called, seems to he more popular than
ever. Dealers say that the demand for all
grades IL increasing, which Of course only
leads one to infer that the chatting dish has
nlled a certain wan and will not soon be
displaced. AS an adjunct to the straggler's
breakfast table, a charming addition to the
dainty arrangement of a lady's luncheon,
or when called into use In a bachelors
apartment for his toothsome Welsh rare
bit or for an after theater supper, it may be
made particularly serviceable and attract
i've.
To answer the question-chaing dishes
may be found to suit any and %everybody's
taste and pocketbook. They are all made
on the same general plan, only, as with
every other household article, expensive
materials and artistic workmanship in.
crease the cost both to manufacturer and
buyer.
The very lowest priced article, a blazer
made of tin, and selling at retail for 80
cents, may be found side by side with i'm
ported English planished tin chatting dishes,
which may be bought at from a to S6. The
latter are oval in shape, and of very good
size, while the one which is most frequently
found is a round standard with the two
round dishes above.
Properly, a chatting dish is in three parts
viz, a standard holding a fountain for
alcohol, with either u central air tube and
no wick, the alcohol itself being ignited, or
with a n asbestus filling covered with wire
gauze, or one, two or three round wicks,
like lamp wicks, each having it's own ex-
tinguisher. Directly over the flame rests a
dish to contain hot water. and the cooking
dish proper fits into this. Each of these
dishes should have at least one handle.
In granite ironware a very serviceable
dish may be bought for 81, then come the
enameled, blue and white ware, the nickel
plated, with iron stand, costing from 81 to
IS, and those made of copper, timed inside,
and with iron stand, at about the same
price.
If n is looking for something very hand
some, he should surely be satisfied with the
artistic designs brought out in electroplate
or silver, with ebony or ivory handles, and
costing from $50 to about go. The most
expensive ones are very elaborate, and
would certainly be fitting companions to
the clearest crystal or finest porcelain.
If one is shut up in the city lodging house,
in one or two rooms, the chatting dish and a
teakettle to fit the same standard may
! be found of the greatest possible service
when one is either too ill to goout or wishes
to entertain a few friends in a quiet way

What an Inch of Rain Means.

We often hear people declare that during
a certain heavy shower rat least Il foot of
water fell" That such a phenomenal
shower would be impossible shall now at
tempt to prove. An acre is equal to 6,272,-
$40 square inches. An inch of water over
the surface of an inch would mean 6,212,6 $40
cubic inches, which, at the usually esti-
mated rate of 227 inches to the gallon
means $4,000. This immense quantity of
water would weigh 100000 pounds or exact
ly 100 tons! Just think of it, and this cal
culation is on the basis of only an inch Of
rainfall, not II foot. Yet many reliable (?)
men will tell you that they have seen wood
ell buckets Of 10 and IL inches in height
rained full in less than an hour. Such dec
larations are simply nonsense of the most
nonsensical kind.-St. Louis Republic.

Dutch Noses.

A study of Jan Stems pictures of Dutch
home life some 200 years ago proves to con
viction that in his day the noses Of his
countryfolk were quite as fantastic as they
are now. Without their pendulous, heavy.
mirth inspiring organs of smell, the artists
tipsy tiddlers and peasants, quack doctors
and housewives, would not make one smile
half us much as they do. 1t is we'll that the
average Dutchman is II good natured fel
low.
No matter whether his amiability be due
to his phlegmatic temperament or to the
reasoned discipline in his soul. the result
is the same to the outer world. If be were
naturally disposed to be a prey to his pas
sions, there would he something horribly
discordant in the broad comedy of his face

Women DO n

learn nothing from the newspapers. Three
women got on a Broadway car we'll up
each drew IL purse from her muf. Number
one gave the conductor Is cents; number
two, without a word, put back her coin;
number three, lingering a silver piece,
looked inquiringly at number two, and the
latter, nodding toward number one, said
''she had the change" Then number three
put up her coin and all went on talking.
The whole thing was accomplished without
struggle and much rs three men would
have done it.-New York Sun.

Superior to the scene of labor, Sunday
morning, to supervise the work, which
will be pushed with all possible
rapidlty.
The work OF transferring will be con-
tinued each day until the road has been
repaired to such an extent as to permit
the passage Of trains. The fear of the
officials now is that the M%issouri's
breaking will cause another flood, that
the water in the Heart will again be
backed up and their work be again un.
done.
LITTLE DR. OF WATER.
Gen. Supt. w. G. Kimberley arrived
from the east Sunday morning, and was
at once conveyed to the scene of de-
struction. He remained most Of the day
at the place where the transfers we're
made, and was busy with the supervision
of work. In the afternoon he tele.
graphed General Manager Mellen that
repairs might be completed go that
trains could bs crossed by Tuesday
night, but it is thought he hardly ex-
poets necessary repairs to be completed
before Wednesday.
General Superintendent Browning Of
the express company was one OF the
transferred passengers who went east
Sunday morning. Mr.. Browning had
been in the tie-up for three days, and
was right willing to continue on his
journey eastward.
The superintendent of the Dakota,
Missouri and Yellowstone divisions were
at the place of transferring Sunday and
looking after company affairs.
