FIRST declined to take part in the
naval celebration an account OF the
poor state Of its finances. The En-
peror then wrote an autograph letter
to the Sultan, asking him to send
war chip to Kiel. The Sultan sum
moned the Minister OF Marine, Has
san Pasba, and asked him If it was
absolutely impossible 10 comply with
Germany's wishes.
The Minister carefully stated the
formidable list on paper of the Tur-
kish war ships, and found that be
had only three fr,gates at his dis.
posal which we're suitable, and these
needed re6tting, which would cost h
great deal Of time aud money. Sud
denly Hassan Pasha remembered
that the Turkish Government had
ordered large torpedo-boat from
the Germania shipbuilding yards at
Kiel. This vessel is already built,
but has not yet been paid for on ac-
count Of lack Of funds. The brilliant
idea struck Hassan Pasba to send a
crew to KEEL and hire this boat for
the few days Of the festivities. Diff
culties, however, supervened to pre-
vent the execution OF this scheme,
and it was finally decided to order
the Turkish cruiser Heybelnuma to
go 20 KEEL.

just as if he were going about an i'm
portant piece of engineering. He was
always calm and self-possessed, and the
precision and deliberation which he em-
ployed were successful agencies in his
career.
When he first entered the southern
army he was an almost hopeless dys-
peptic. He had suffered for many years
the uncertain and untimely effects of
that exasperating malady. He thought
he should have fresh milk every day
in the field, for it had formed a part
of his diet at home, so he took a COW
into the army and carried the beast
with him all through the war.
Gen. Malone often related the an
noyances the COW caused him. One time
Gen. Lee came to him after the COW had
been in the way and said: General,
you will have to leave that COW be-
hind"

''1f we cannot get along with the COW
/ will have to resign"
So the COW remained, and she was act
ually at Gen. Mahone's camp on the
memorable April day when Lee sur
rendered to Grant at Appomattox. Gen.
Malone took the animal home to
Petersburg afterward.
The general was noted also in the
army for the complete household out
fit he carried. What cooking utensils
he was particularly well supplied, and

in Washington. He had supplied his

for His Successor.
AT dinner in Lexington soon after

upon Malone as his successor in COM

have said, "Gen. Malone would have
succeeded me in command" This in-

by Gen. Mahone's enemies in Virginia,

severest of his enemies, has acknowl.

Malone was a civil engineer by pro-

this calling at the Virginia military
institute, from which he had been
graduated in 1s47. He was an organ

that next visiting day he intended to

TRAP AND GUN.


A lynx weighing 40 pounds was shot
in a main street, near the center of the
city of San Diego, Cal, few days ago.
1t is said that deer are so plentiful in
some of the wild parts of Oregon that
the systematic slaughter of them for
their hides is profitable business.
While hunting for partridge, and, OF
course, with both barrels loaded with
bird shot, an Ellsworth, Me-, hunter
stumbled upon three deer. He didn't
swear, he says; he 'laid right down
and bawled."
A good-sized bear was killed in the
city limits of Montesano, Wash. The
animal strayed in from the nearby
forest and got within four blocks of
the courthouse before anyone appeared
with gun. Then 14-year-old boy
killed it.
A party of hunters returned to Ash
land, Ore, from six weeks hunt in
the mountains of Curry county, bring
ing with them the spoils of three bull
elk, four bears and 65 bucks. There is
wonderful abundance Of game in that
region.
Grouse, partridge, deer and many
other kinds of game are unusually
plentiful in northern New Hampshire
this fall. Black bears are numerous
near Thornton, and an unusually large
lynx was shot near Ellsworth few
| days ago.

Presence of Mind.

Quick thought and prompt action in
time of danger have averted many an
otherwise fatal accident, as is well Illus
trated in what came near being case
of drowning last winter. dozen boys
were skating on a pond, when one OF
them broke through the ice and the
next moment was struggling in the
water. The accident occurred near the
middle of the pond; there was no house
near to which the boys could run for
help; no rope which they could throw
to their unfortunate companion, nor
yet pole or stick of any kind. For a
minute they stood aghast, huddled to-
gether, watching the poor boys strug-
giles in the icy water and his futile eff
forts to hold himself up by grasping the
treacherous ice. Suddenly David Small
threw himself face down upon the ice
and cried: 'Quick! Shove me to the
edge John, you lie down and get hold
of my feet, and ST, you get hold of his.
I'll catch hold of Bob; and when l give
the signal the rest of you fellows graf
81 and haul us out of this" The brave
boy took the post of danger himself
the others followed his directions, and
when he had securely grasped Bob the
signal was given. All hands pulled
with will and the drowning boy was
saved.-Philadelph Press.

A MOTORMAN'S LIFE.
Full Of Hardships, Exposure and
Constant Danger.
The Great Strain on q Mans Nerves Suf-
hcient In Itself to Wreck Him In u
Short Time-The Experience of
Wel-Known Motorman.
From the Cincinnati, Ohio, ENQUIRER.

The life of a motorman is not a bed Of
roses. He is subjected to many hardships
especially in the winter when he is exposed
to the cold and show. Even in the summer
he must bear the intense heat which beats
down upon him. Considerable nerve and
self possession is necessary in a good m otor-
man, for the lives and limbs of his pas
sengers are at stake. One of the best
known electric motormen in this city is
William Frazer, who is at present running
car on the Cumminsville electric line. He
is not only well known to his fellow en-
ployes but to the people who travel on his
car Mr.. Frazer Is young man about
twenty-six years of age and resides with his
wife and child at 144 Belts Street. Cincin-
natl, o. About year ago Mr.. Frazer was
taken with serious stomach troubles. He
bought several kir DIS of medicine which
We're recommended to him. but none of
them seemed to give him even temporary
benefit. An enthusiastic admirer OF that
famous remedy known as DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People told him to try
them. Frazer was almost discouraged, but
took the advice. To reporter of the En-
7mIrer he said:
~ can most heartily recommend DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills They are all that is
claimed for them, in fact they advertise
themselves better than any medicine i ever
saw. l was seized some time ago with a
bad attack of indigestion. My stomach
hurt me nearly all the time and / could not
digest my food. The pain was almost un-
bearable and found no thing that would give
me relief. 1 confess that when / bought
! the first box of Pink Pills hadn't much
confidence in their efficacy because had
tried SO many things without success that /
was almost discouraged. Before / had
! taken one box 1 was decidedly better. Two
boxes cured me entirely. While / have
been under the weather from other causes
my indigestion has never returned. II it
ever should know just what to do. have
so much confidence in the efficacy of Pink
Pills that il ever get real sick again with
any disorder l shall use some of them. 1t
Is a pleasure for me assure you TO testify
to the excellent qualitie of these Pink Pills.
They not only tone the stomach but regu-
late the bowels and act as a mild cathartic" 4"
Mr.. Frazers testimonial means some
thing. He speaks from personal experience
and any one who doubts that he received
the benefits stated can easily verify the as
sertion by calling on Mr. Frazer or seeing
him some time while heis on his car.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills contain all the
elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are sold in boxes (never In
loose form by the dozen or hundred) at so

After nightfall, while the confeder-

the road, and while the federal guns
were still in position to check any at

rode forward over blind road in the
forest to see if these guns could not be
fanked, and a volley of musketry from
a picket of his own men laid the great
fighter low.-M. Quad, in Detroit Free
