It Meant Mutiny.

One morning a British man-of-war
was seen entering Hongkong harbor
with the ensign inverted, which is the
usual sign Of "mutiny on board" I'm
mediately this was noticed q couple of
man-of-war cutters put out, full of blue
jackets, and dashed across the harbor
toward where the newcomer had anchor
ed. Perhaps 1T was q little regatta en-
thusiasm, or perhaps it was purely the
spirit of duty which stimulated them,
but anyhow a most exciting race ensued
i'm fact, there was q narrow escape of
a bad smash as they reached the vessel.
There the officers and some of the crew
were at the taffrail, shouting 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 were warmly
complimented ON their rowing pace. II
must have blown them badly. Would
they have a drink?
"a what? Where is the mutiny?''
gasped the senior officer in charge Of
the boarding party. "Mutinyi There's
no mutiny in this ship. We are all the
best of friends, was the reply. Then
why did yon want us? You yelled loud
enough" We thought ii was Hong
kong regatta day and were cheering the
winners" Staggered for q moment, the
officer pointed inquiringly to the ensign,
still Haunting its appeal for aid that
was not required. "Oh, d--n the boy
He always puts it up wrong if we dom
watch him-simply out Of stupidity.
Let's all go and punch his head "-St.

kite Flying In Burma.

Mr.. L. ID. Cunning, author of I'm the
Shadow of the Pagoda, = describes the

joy with a minimum Of bodily exertion.
Their method Of operations is very sim
pie. Says Mr.. Cunning:
You pare down two liz inch slips Of
bamboo, tie them at their centers cross
wise, run a thread around the four tips
and paste upon this frame one thickness
of paper. Tie q nail or q small screw
nut 10 one corner, and your kiteis made.
The altitude that a well made kite of
this kind will reach is wonderful, and
the lightest breath of wind will take it
mp. A hundred and fifty or 400 yards
Of strong sewing thread, wound ON q
skeleton reel of 4 inches In diameter and
s inches in length, completes the equip
ment.
Then, having started the kite by a
process of gentle playing, you squat
down in the middle OF the street, so as
20 keep your thread clear of the houses
and let the kite help itself.
III you have fastened the thread with
cunning, the kite rises almost perpen-
dicularly, bringing you JOY in tho envy
and admiration OF those who cannot
make a sleeper angle than 40 degrees.
The kite having taken out all the thread,
ron sit and contemplate it poised still
and clear in the upper air for q few
hours.
In Rangoon, on q still morning o.
evening, hundreds of kites float over
the Burmese quarter Of the town, some
nearly ont Of sight, others lowering just
above tho roofs. When driving, yoni

KILLED WITH AN AXE.
Mystery of a Frenchnsan's Body
Found on the Rail.

WATERBURY, Conn. Dec. 27, 1894
Last night Alexander Buchi a young
Frenchman who has been in this coun-
try but a short time, was found lying
near the railroad track between Litch-
field and Albert streets in the borough
Of Torringten. He was unconscious and
badly cut about the head. He died at
four A. M. today.
1t was at first believed that the man
had been struck by train but Medical
Examiner r. S. Renchett thinks the
WOUNDS wore made with an axe. They
are two in number, one over the eyes
and the other on top of the head, clean,
direct cuts. Buchi was a man of good
habits, living with his mother and sister
and employed in the Torrington Brass
Mill and had Just drawn his pay which
was still in his pocket.
The only clew to the crime is the story
of two boys who say they saw two men
run from the spot a few minutes be-
fore the wounded man was found. DR.
Hanchett has telegraphed Coroner Hig-

mass was said and on Saturday the
Queen sent for Miss Thompson and my
self We were received by the Queen
and Princess Beatrice alone and there
We're no attendants to break in upon
our grief. Her Majesty drew Miss
Thompson to her and kissed and con-
soled her and also pressed my hand to
assure one of her heartfelt sympathy.
I wish could adequately express the
extreme tenderness and anxious solicit
tation of Her Majesty In every way
