1T MEANT MUTINY.

One morning a British man-of-war was
seen entering Hong Kong harbor with
the ensign inverted, which is the usual
sign of mutiny on board" says the St
James's Gazette. Immediately this was
noticed a couple of man-of- war cutters
put out, full of bluejackets, and dashed
across the harbor towards where the new
conner had anchored. Perhapsit was a lit
tie regatta enthusiasm, or perhaps it was
purely the spirit of duty which stimu-
lated them. but anyhow a most exciting
race ensued-in fact, there was narrow
escape of bad smash as they reached
the vessel There the officers and some
of the crew were at the taffrail shout
ing themselves hoarse and reckoning to
the two boats to come on faster AT
last, half dead with their eXertions, yet
eager for the fray with the mutineers,
the tars tumbled on board and We're

Would they have drink?
asked the senior officer in charge Of
the boarding party. "Mutiny! There
no mutiny in this ship. We are ali the
best of friends" was the reply. "Then
why did you want us? You yelled loud
enough" I'VE thought 1t was Hong
Kong regatta day, and were cheering the
winners" Staggered for a moment, the
officer pointed inquiringly to the ensign,

HE LOST HIS SUIT.
Both Eyes Proved to lie sound by
m OculIsts Trick.

Here Is an interesting account OF
very clever bit of detective work by an
oculist: 1t appears that in large fac

hundred persons, one of the "orkmen, In
welding his hammer, carelessly allowed
1t to alp from his hand. 1t flew half
way across the room and struck fellow
workman In the left eye.
The man averred that his eye was
blinded by the blow, although a careful
examination failed to reveal any injury,
brought suit in the courts for compen-
sation for the loss of half of his eye
sight, and refused all offers of com
promise, says the Sheffield Telegraph.
Under the law the owner of the factory
was responsible for an injury resulting
from an accident of this kind and al
shamming, and that the whole case was
an attempt at swindling. he had about
made up his mind that he would be
compelled to pay the claim. The day of

PLAINTIFFS loud protest of his inability to
see with his left eye, the uculist proved
him perjurer and satisfied the court
and jury of the falsity of his claim.
And how do YOU suppose he did It.?
Why. simply by knowing that the colors
green and red combined MAKE black.
He procured black card on which a
Then the .plaintif was ordered to put on
"A pair of spectacles with two different
glasses, the one for the right eye being
red, and the one for the left eye con-
sisting of ordinary glass. Then the card
was handed him, and he was ordered to
read the writing on it. This he did with
out hesitation, and the cheat vas at once
exposed. The sound right eye, fitted with
the red glass, was unable to distinguish
the green writing on the black surface
Of the card, while the left eye. which he
pretended was sightless, was the one
with which the reading had to be done.

The dozens of so-called prominent candl-
dates have been weedel out. leaving a
majority of the veterans and a few new
men While the men have played stead
lily and hard, there seems to be lament
able lack OF snap for so early in the
season.
Brown, of last years team, and Coch-
ran, Freshman, are taking care of the
ENDS. Brown, while an earnest, resJlute
player, is scarcely up to his usual form.
Cochran, on the contrary, though new
man, Is putting up a steady game and is
particularly active in following the ball
down the field. Lea is at rlght-tackle
and gets more out of that position than
any man now playing. Wheeler and
Taylor occupy right and left tackle re-
spectively
Taylors game is not yet what it should
be, he seeming to lack the push ana
energy which characterized his playing
last season. At centre it Is toss-uu
between Crowds, last years scrub" cen,
tire rush, and Riggs, a younger brother OF
the famous Jesse. Both are big stroug
men, but the years experience acquired
by Crowds under Ballet will probably
give him the position.
