Pntrintic Correction

The historian of Warwick, Rhode Isl
and, tells Il story of Elder Charles Hol-
den, who was pastor of the church in
that town at the time of the Declara-
ton of American Independence,
He had been accustomed to pray for
"the king and all in authority in his
public services, and his thoughts, from
long running in the same channel, had
crystallized themselves in words from
which he found it difficult to break
away. The elder was patriotic, and
the new order of things interfered with
his set forms Of speech.
At one time, while praying, he came
to the place, I'VE pray for the king and
all in authority" and before he was
aware of it, the words We're uttered.
He stopped short, and after an in
stants hesitation, added. Living in
Rhode Island"

At the close of one of the sessions in
the trial of Warren Hastings, when
most of those engaged had gathered in
the ante-rOOm. Dr. Parr stalked up and
down the room in his pedantic, pomp-
GUS way, growing out praises Of the
speeches of Fox and Sheridan, but say
ing not word about Burke's.
Burke, sensitive ut this omission, and
anxious for some commentator from
the great authority, could at last con-
tain himself no longer, and burst out:
Doctor, dids't you like my speech q
"NO, Edmund" replied DR.. Parr,
calmly cycling his excited questioncr.
"Your speech was oppressed with met
aphor dislOcated by parenthesis, and
debilitated by application.

II WINS n Fake

Some time ago Il story went around
the newspapers to the effect that Eliza
Island, which lies in Puget Sound in
sight of the city of Fair Haven, had
been leased by syndicate of specula-
tors, who intended to establish pecu-
liar industry, and raise black cats for
their fur. eliza Island is a beautiful
piece of ground in Bellingham Bay, and
is covered with fir trees of everlasting
green. Two or three fishermen are
living there with their families and
keep number Of animals. But the
black-cat story was a fake, started by
a man named James Wardener, of Fair
Haven, who has an inventive genius
and very little to do. He sent it to an
Eastern paper as genuine thing, to
illustrate the enterprise of the citizens
of Washington, ana everybody believed
1t to be true.

Foremost among the best known lawyers

Isaac A. Sugg of Greenville. Mr.. Sugg has
resided in Greenville twenty-five years.

was a case Of the entire breaking down of
the nervous system, attended by eXcruciat-
ing, agonizing, uncomfortable pain. Opiates
and stimulants only quoted temporarily,
and all treatments failed him. Only his love
fof family and friends prevented suicide.
He told reporter the following interesting
story
"ikept at my work as long as I could,

SIT was at this time that somewhat
similar case as my own was brought to my
notice. This man had suffered very much
as had, his life had been despaired Of as
mine had, and yet he had been cured.
Think what that little word meant to me
CURED. The report stated that the work
had been accomplished by medicine
known as DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. | investigated the report thor
oughly and found that it was true in detail.
Then procured some of DR.. Williams Pink
pills and began taking them and began to
get better. l began to sleep like health
full child, sound, calm and peaceful. My
appetite came back and my nerves were
soothed and restored to their normal condi-
ton and ] felt like a new man. But the
greatest blessing was the mental improve
ment. l began to read and digest, to formu-
late new plans, to take an interest in my
law practice, which began to come back to
me as soon as my clients realized that l
was again myself. After lapse of ten
years ride horseback every day without
fatigue.
"That DR.. Williams Pink Pills saved my
life is beyond doubt, and | am spreading
their praises far and wide"

SPEED OF CANNON BALLS.
How Artillery Experts Measure Il

How Artillery Experts Measure IL
with Exnctnesa.
The measurement OF the speed of bod

special mechanical contrivnnces In con-
ncctlon with electric contacts and self
registering clock.work. The following
Is the procedure adopted The chro-
nometer or other time-piece to be used
for the purpose Is electrically connect
ed with two circult-brenkers one at
each end Of the proving ground. The
discharged proJectile In Its flight strikes
both in turn, starting the chr0nOscope
ut the first contact and stopping 1t ut
the second, thus registering the Inter
val of time between the two, In prac'
teal experiments the line Of flight Of
the projectile Is intercepted by two disk
like frames C. and ID in the illustration
at n measured distance apart, and sup
ported by the posts A and b, sunk In
the earth. The distance between tho
two frames Is ordinarily 30 meters--55
or 80 yards-and the two are so placed
that the projectile will pass through
them about the middle. Both frames
are made of parallel wooden Stats, and
are provided on their perpendicular
sides with small pegs supporting II thin
copper wire that passes alternately
from one side TO the other, without in
terIuptiOn. In this way the frame be-
comes II network, in which the dame
