Old Ironsides.

Probably no other ship has done SO
much to level British naval pride as
Did lronsides. High rewards and
.apid promotion awaited the English
commander who sailed into Spithead
with dreaded Constitution as a prize.
When. by the extraordinary seaman
ship of Capt. Isaac Hull. she escaped
he clutches of a powerful British
squadron off Sandy Hook in 1872,
after chase Of some sixty hours,
capt. Byron, commanding one OF the
ships of the pursuing squadron. wrote
TO u friend in London: Nothing can
exceed my modification from the Ca
traordinary escape of the American
trigate." The even more remarka-
ole escape of the Constitution in 1915
from another British squadron of
Port Praya caused the commanding
English officer to commit suicide.

The Preservation of Food.

The great advance in the preserva.
tion of foods Is perhaps most clearly
shown in a recent article in a French
magazine. The article discusses the
preserving of provisions from the mil.
itary standpoint. 1t states that 10000
rations of vegetables can be stored in
a cubic space of forty inches each way
That millions of rations of solid soups
and preserved meats are continually
stored in Paris, while the quantity OF
-four and biscuit is fabulous. Milk
during the last siege of Paris, was
worth its weight in gold. Now the
method Of "Pasteurizing" milk and put
ting it in heremetically-sealed cans is
found to preserve milk indefinitely, and
insures against suffering those classes
Of the community that suffer most
from scarcity of milk--the feeble, aged
and infants. Compressed fodder and
the silo system are the safeguards used
by the government to protect animals
in case of siege, while an enormous
cold-storage warehouse at La Vilette
insWes fresh meats for a long period.
The application of science l. the food
problem has reduced the perplexities
of families living on small incomes,
but 1t may force complete change in
manoeuvers, starvation of the
besieged being made almost impossible.

A MARES STRANGE FREAK
She Refused to Drink Anywhere but at
Certain Stream.

She Refused to Drink Anywhere but at q
Certain Stream.
Perhaps the friends of that noble
enir.al, the horse, will be interested in
the following bits from the history OF
Nita, fine old mare, which, until re-
Gently, might have been seen in the
stables of ]. l.. Hester, a resident OF
Haughton, La, according to a Phila-
delphia Times correspondent When
Hester was quite a lad Nita was pre-
sented to him by his grandfather, the
late Henry Thompson, of Oaklawn
plantation, but, strange to relate, the
mare, then only young filly, could not
be induced to remain away from her
native heath. After Hester became
possessed of her she refused to drink
drop of water. In fact, it is believed
that she would have starved herself to
death had she not been taken back to
her old home. When turned loose in
Oaklawn pasture, however, she ran as
fast as she could caper to a clear, cool
stream which crossed the meadow,
shaking her thirst eagerly. After this
singular behavior no further effort was
made to remove her permanently from
her first home, and whenever she was
taken away for day she would drink
no water until her return, when she
would go to the little pasture stream.
In the course of time Hester inherited
his grandfather's estate and moved to
Oaklawn. Nita thus for second time
becoming his property. Fifteen years
have passed since that event and Hes
ter asserts that he has never during
that time known Nita to drink any
where but at the little meadow branch.
Some three months ago Hester moved
to his Red river plantation, about
twenty miles distant, Of course, carry
ing Nita with him, though she had
passed beyond her days Of usefulness
and was almost decrepit. After her re-
moval the old mare began to pine and
droop, and at the end of the third day,
when she had not drunk drop of water
her kind master led her back to her old
home. So soon as she felt herself in
the neighborhood of Oaklawn she
pricked up her ears and began to canter
almost spryly, and when the pasture
was reached she betook herself at once
to the branch, drinking long and deep
Of its waters. Hester says that the
poor, dumb creatures evident delight
was pitiful to behold, and he deter
mined never more. to take her away.
He slipped the bride, thinking it would
please her to be left in the meadow all
night, and the last he saw of her as he
closed the gate behind him the mare
was standing knee-deep in the stream,
letting the water trickle between her
lips. The next morning, when he went
to feed her, the poor thing was lying
on the bank, cold and stiff in death, her
head overhanging the water that she
loved so much.

Fretting Under the Law.

There is said to be law In Massa-
chusetts making it an offense to give
away any object or thing as an induce
ment to purchase other things; for ex-
ample, to give away a picture with
every certain amount of other things
purchased. There was once law which
made it an offense for man to kiss his
wife on Sunday, but was strangely
silent about kissing some other mans
wife. Many a man still living can re-
member when it was not permissible
to open the theaters in Boston on Sat-
urday evenings, and there was a law
to punish any dissipated individual
found smoking on the street. Some of
these fantastic old legal freaks have
been done away with, but there are
some communities which, like some in
require quite an unconscion-
able time to get wide awake.-Boston
Traveller.

About strikes.

The Massachusetts board of concili-
alton and arbitration reports that the
strikes in the state last year were
numerous, but generally unsuccessful,
and that those called successful en-
tailed more loss than gain to the
workmen. The results of arbitration
were favorable to all concerned, but
it seems that both parties to labor
controversy will seldom agree to so
calm apd reasonable method Of set
tling a dispute.

given evidence that the Latter Day
Saints received direct Communication

he had been to heaven, and the streets
were paved with gold, and he met the

What Folly.

The hands OF female mummies
found in the tombs OF Egypt are liter
ally covered with rings, in many in
stances there being from two to six
on every finger. In some cases these
ornaments are composed wholly Of
gold, but in others, which probably
represent all that is left of some poor
mans wife or daughter, the rings are
brass, glass or pottery ware.

Homing Pigeons.

a new use for homing pigeons has
been suggested. 1t is thought that
every large steamer should carry a
supply OF them, to liberate in the
event of an accident. Pigeons have
a record of 500 and 1000 miles day.
If the Gascogne had had homing pig
cons on board it is believed that news
of her would have been received three
days before she was sighted.
