The Kaiser at the Telephone,

Emperor William II. has his own i'm
perial way of using the telephone, says
the Appeal-Avalanche. Despite mis-
takes caused by the cmperor's refusal
to name himself at the opening of his
conversation, as other people do, he in
variably introduces his telephoncd
orders merely with the words: Il COM
mand that" and so forth. AS soon as
a chief of department hears these
words he motions that his subordinates
must ut once leave the room. The sig
nificance of this arrangement is sup
posed to be that the chief is having
something of an audience with his
majesty, and that it would be pre-
sumptuous for a person not summoned
to hear the imperial voice to occupy
the room into which its tones are con-
veycd. At the end of the conversation
the emperor walks away without say
ing ''good-by," and the chief with
whom he has conversed must listen
for five or six minutes afterward to
make sure that the imperial orders
have been completed. Then he calls
back his assistants and the usual eti-
quette is resumed.

A Hot Day.

A woman who lives in the suburbs
of Brooklyn usually places large tin
pan on her front door step to receive
the ice that the iccman delivers to her
each morning. During recent hot
spell her little grandson. who is full of
mischief, thought that he would play
joke on his grandmother. The next
morning when the pan was put on the
step, he filed it partly with water and
then yelled "I-c-e" 1t was nearly five
minutes before the grandmother
started to take the ice into the house.
She was surprised to find that the ice
had melted SO quickly. Meantime the
iccman had come and saw no pan for
the ice. He did not leave the usual
piece and the grandmother was telling
her neighbors of the unusual heat until
the other day, when the young hope
full told his big brother a bout the joke
he PLAYED. -

NEW CONDITIONS OF WARFARE.

SInokeless Powder tn Ee Used In Ger
many's Military Evolutsons This Year,
This year the Germnns are to hold
army maneuvers on gigantic scale on
the French frontier and partly in the
provinces conquered from France. The
emperor has resolved to surpass all
former efforts of martial display and is
to have host of potentatesa and princes
Us onlookcrs. Some remarkable re-
suits may be expected in the use OF
smokelcss powder both by the artillery
and the infantry. The difficulties in
the way of introducing this powder
have now been overcome very thor
oughly. and the strategist has to deal
with new conditions of warfare in very
long range of weapons and invisibiiity'
which were not thought of ten years
ago. The scientific aspect of war is in
the ascendant far more than has for
merly been the case, and, according to
the San Francisco Call, generals of the
Moltkc type are more needed than
leaders of personal daring and dash,
whose impetuosity is of little avail in
modern tactics. The pcrpleXity into
which smoleless powder may throw
commander was illustrated recently
during artillery maneuvers at Alder
shot. in England. Sir Evelyn Wood,
who is in command at this military
camp. reported that one battery which
had been pounding away for some min
utes at distance of one mile and
half was SO invisible to the force which
it was attacking that for the sake OF
practice orders We're sent to fire few
rounds of ordinary black powder in or
der that the position might be distin-
guishcd and the range found. In ac-
tual hostilities there would be no such
accommodation. The death-dealing
gums would be served with energy as
long as the advantage of being unseen
and unopposed remained. This must
be regarded as striking proof that
the new powder of the British service,
cordite, is answering it's purpose well.
Cordite consists of about fifty per cent.
of nitro-glycerine and fifty per cent OF
nitro-cotton, which are combined by
solvent in small proportion, and cam
phor is added to reduce the sensitive
ness to explosive action. The material
is paste rather than powder, and it
is made by special machinery in the
form of thin cords or threads, which
are afterward rolled into cartridges OF
any size and form. Cordite is thus
equally suitable for small arms or ar
tillcry. An initial velocity of two
thousand feet per second is obtained
and the pressure within the gun cham
Der is said to be less than when black
powder is used. The smokeless pow
der called balistite is somewhat sim
liar in composition and is also prepared
in any shape for use by the soldier or
sportsman. One very distinctive adj
vantage this snoleless ammunition of
the itro-glycerinc-cotton description
has over gunpowder lies in impermea-
bility to water. ,,e,

Interesting Scenes in Sea Coast Town of
Morocco.
Tangier's beauty lies in SO many diff
ferent things-in the monllile garb of
the men and in the white mufIied fig
nres of the women, in the brilliancy of
its sky, and of the sea dashing upon
the rocks and tossing the feluccas with
their three-cornered sails from side to
side; and in the green towers of the
mosques, and the listless leaves of the
royal palms rising from the center of a
mass of white roofs; and, above all, in
the color and movement of the bazars
aud streets. The streets represent alb
solutc equality. They are at the
widest but three yards across, and cv-
cry one pushes, and apparently every
one has something to sell, or at least
something to say, for they all talk and
shout at once and cry ut their donkeys
or abuse whoever touches them. A

Heavy Deposits of Iron Under Seventy
Feet of Water.


Feet OF Water.
Few pieces of engineering work were
ever undertaken that exceeded the
pumping out of Lake Angeline, near
Ishpcming, Mich, where pumps have
been working for sixteen months. The
water is all gone now, but apparently
the hardest part of the work has still
to be accomplished. The lake lies near
the southern part of Ishpcming, cover
ing one hundred acres, and was seven
ty feet deep in the middle.
1t was for a long time the source of
that city's water supply, until the
growth of the town about its shores
contaminated the water. Under the
bed of the lake lie the largest iron-ore
deposits ever discovered. The ore was
discovered some ten years ago, when
diamond drill was set on the frozen
surface of the lake one winter, and a
hole drilled six hundred feet down be-
low the bed of the pig-iron. Large ore
bodies were cut by the drill, and the
three mining companies owning the
ground under the lake began devising
means to secure this valuable ore.
The greater part of the lake was
owned by the Cleveland iron com
panies. The first and second named
companies did more or less work under
the surface of the lake, but the ever
present danger of a rush of water from
above rendered it imperative that the
water be taken out. Work was begun
last spring before the snow left the
ground. when rotary pump with ca
pacity of twenty thousand gallons per
minute was anchored in a barge in the
center of the lake, and began pumping
water into n big flume elevated twenty
feet above the surface of the water.
The pump has been going day and
night, allowing for occasional break
downs, and the water has only recent
ly been drained all out.
Now, however, remains serious
question to be settled. There is bed
Of mud from two to forty feet deep
over the bed of the former lake. This
mud is kept moist by underground
springs. from which the water bubbles
up. Big tubular stand-pipes, pierced
with myriads of small holes hardly
larger than n needles point, are being
forged into the mud, and into these
the water filters and is pumped out.
The surface of the bed of the lake is
more treacherous than quicksand. for
any heavy object thrown on it is quick
ly engulfed. Several narrow escapes
from drowning have taken place. 1t
will take sixteen months longer to get
rid of the mud.

Has She Been Displaced by the Aggres-
sivc Young business Woman?
One hears and reads much about the
gentleman who will keep his seat in
crowded street car and will not spend
his vacation at the popular summer re-
sorts, but what has become of the gen.
tic girl, inquiries the New York World.
Where are those sweet, shy creatures
!! who used to wear lawn dresses and
Leghorn hats, who shrank from any
thing approaching the conspicuous,
who "spolie low and sweet" who were
taught that sarcasm was rudeness, and
that lady smiled but never laughed?
What has become of blushing sixteen
and all those dainty, quiet young
women who would rather '.be sweet"
than smart? Has the gentle girl gone
with the "huzzy," the work basket and
the tatting shuttle?
The business girl is too sharp to be
agreeable. Her motto seems to be to
suspect everybody all the time. She
has an I-llnow-what-you're- kind
of manner; she says: "How are you?"

looks you straight in the eyes without

but no manners. A clerk who has

avoids waiting on pretty customers as
much rs possible, because of their in
science. In this house, which gives
employment to about eight hundred
women and girls, the clerks call them
selves "salcsladies," and their colabor-
crs in the dressInaking and upholstery
departments shop girls" So pro-
nounced is the feeling of the "ladies"
who sell goods against the girls who
operate on suits, corsets, wraps, mat

Mrs. Astor would bow to her laundress
if she met her in the street, while these
"salcsladics" would not stoop to notice

nowhere is the incivility and rudeness
of our young women more remarkable
than in the street cars, and it makes

ARITHMETIC LOSING GROUND.
The Principal Of . School Notes Change
in Favorite Studies.

in Favorite Studies.
These facts about the decline OF
arithmetic as an educator were gath
cred from the principal of one of the
Detroit public schools by n writer for
the Free Press. What he says applies
only to the Detroit schools, though it
would seem that the failure of what
was ten years ago regarded as the
most important grammar school study
might not be confined to the city
limits of the place named. In the lat
ter part of the '7Os, and well along in
the sos, he says, the pupil who was
quickest and surest in arithmc-
tic was also the quickest and
surest TO gain the esteem and
influence of the teacher. He
might be an ignoramous in geography,
an undecipherable penman, slow to
perceive the principle OF grammar,
and miserable speller. but If he
grasped the point and pith of catch
problem in decimals or in fractions,
his future promotion to higher class)
was assured. But a change, gradual
and sure, has been going on in the cur
riculum of the common school. The
arithmetical dcspot has taken seat
in the rear, while the young fellow
who seeks after real information in
the form of history of lands, peoples
and government, correct spelling and
speech now sits on front bench. The
human mind is unsettled in it's youth
full stage. 1t requires training. and
the school exists only for this purpose.
Arithmetic was once supposed to be
the best form of mind-training. 1t
brought into full play the powers of
reason, and was placed first in impor-
tancc. But experience proved that
while the reason was to n certain eX-
tent exercised the memory was neg
lectcd. Again, the longest time and
hardest work were devoted to arithme-
tic, and the other studies were disre-
garded. With all Of these concessions
the arithmetic lesson was not more
t!.an half learned. To-day the pupil
delves deeper into the more intellectual
researches of civil government, gram
mar, geography and reading. He can
tell you now something about the dcs-
tinies of government and people that
hinge about presidential election.
He takes an interest not only in the
