The Value of Military Discipline.

The Value of Military discipline.
A PENNSYLVANIA regiment when 1T first
Joined had excited the commlseration
Of the veteran organizations OF the pri-
| gade to which it was assigned, because
its colonel kept them standing IN llne
so long when they halted at the n
of each days march, throwing out
markers, and compelling each restless
| soldier and impatient officer to toe
the mark until the alignment was per-
| feet enough to suit him. Other troops
| gathered in the fuel and such camp
| peruuisiteS as were in sight; still ne
| would not break his ranks and allow
| his men TO 80 until each company
front was an absolute straight line.
On the day of battle, when the brl-
| gade to which this regiment belonged
| moved into line of battle and opened
fire on the enemy the position that fell
| to this regiment was a conspicuous
| one on the side of Il gentle slope n a
fell off toward the Sunken Road. Here
the ~coloncl's line was formed, just as
| rigidly correct as it had been at the
| close of each days march. And there,
| too, those men stood and stayed. The
brave colonel was killed; officers and
| mon were falling like autumn leaves,
| all along the line, and yet dressed to
| the center" where their ColOrS were
flying. Just as they had been taught to
do at the close of each days march,

drill they had ever had. they con

Among the reconstructioDs of his

is a fan-like clock. which not only
keeps correct time, but is a work of
art from a decorative standpoint as
well. The time is shown by the blades
of a fan opening progressively, which,
when all have spread, close upon
completion of the twelfth hour. The
time covered is from 6 to g, thirteen
blades being necessary to show the
twelve hours. The movement is bulky
but very simple, and is hidden behind
the cushion of red plush upon which
the fan apparently rests. At 6 o'clock
the fan is entirely closed; as time pro

Iron Filings for the Soil.

Northern fruit growers know that
the color of fruit is largely dependent
on the amount of available potash
which the soil contains. This, with
sunlight aids in the development Of
both color and fine flavor. A Califor-
mia orange grower, Mr.. G.. w. Pres
colt, has found that iron heightened
the color of his product and made it
more salable. His oranges were orig
inally very pale, but by using five
pounds of iron filings around his trees
the color has been changed to a dark
yellow, with increased quality Of fruit.
So much iron filings probably made
the soil more open and porous. If the
iron has served as plant food a small
quantity would have been sufficient.

Anccdntc Of rerlcr.

Once during the schooldays Of the
president of the French republic his pro-
fessor in geography asked him, "Perier,
give us the exact position and indicate
the latitude Of the Gambler group. ="
Casimir- Perier crossed his arms tightly
upon his chest, looking very perplexed.
One of his neighbors whispered to him
the wrong answer, whereupon the pro-
fessor gave him the exact position OF
this little group, which belongs TO the
more important French establishment
of Tahiti, and after a short pause, and
with little point of irony, said: "You
ought to know that, Perier, because 1t
is thanks to your grandfather that
France acquired the ascendancy in these
parts Of the world 1t was through his
efforts and entreaties that the dusly
queen Of these islands was induced to
come to France, and the men of my
generation still remember the comical
songs which celebrated the event. " Pc
rier blushed considerably, but, holding
his head still higher, answered the pro
fessor with his quick and peculiar die
ton, "I will most certainly go over
this lesson again and try to be more
proficient at the next lecture; but, SC
far as the deeds of my grandfather go,
they are 80 numerous that am not old
enough yet TO know them all. San

The Bank Of England Makes n Big ProGi
on Her Notes


The Bank of England Makes Mig Progi
on Her Notes.
1.snk notes Of the value Of thousands
OF pounds are annually lost OF destroyed |
by accident In the 40 years between |
l792 aud 1882 thore were outstanding |
notes of the Bank of England, presumed |
to have been either lost or DESTROYED,
amounting to 81, $3.50, 900 odd, every
shilling Of which was clear profit to the
bank.
In many instances, however, it is pos.
sible TO recover tho amount of the note
from the bank in full. Notice has to be
given to the bank of the note supposed
to be lost or stolen together with q
small fee and full narrative as to how
the loss occurred. The note is then
''stopped" is, if the document
should be presented for payment, the
person stopping" the note is informed
when and to whom it is paid. If pre-.
sented, after having been stopped"
by any suspicious looking person, and
not through banker, one of the detect
ives always in attendance at the bank
would be called to question the person
as 10 how and when the note came into
his or her possession. 1t is quite mis-
taken idea that stopped payment" of
bank note has the effect supposed by
very many people. It simply means that
the Bank of England carefully keeps
lookout for the note which has boen
stopped, and, though it cannot refuse
to pay such note Immediately on its be-
ing presented, notification would at
once be made to the person who stopped
it, and the bank would give all the as
sistance in its power to enable the loser
to recover the amount
In the case Of bank note having
been, say, burned by mistake, if the
number is known and notice sent to the
Bank Of England it will pay the amount
after an interval Of five years from the
date of lodging notice of destruction
should no one have presented the note
for payment in the meantime. The bank
in such cases also insists on guarantee
Icing given by banker or two house
holders that it shall be repaid in the
event of the document turning up and
being again rendered for payment IL is
not at all an unusual circumstance for
mutilated note to be presented for
payment, burned perhaps half through,
with marks of burning ON the fringes
Nor is the damage always accidental
Tho men who indulge in the luxury OF
lighting their pipes with bank note
are not always, as some may think,
millionaires or recognized lunatics Of
society. The spoiled notes are more often
than not presented by worxmen or Ia
borers, who confess without hesitation
that they have Intentionally lighted

pair every six months. When new, they
cost 50; when sold secondhand, they
realize the modest sum of 80 cents, but
as ut least 5000 pairs per annum are
sent to the Rue des Eooles il makes
quite a booming industry. The leather
of these boots is, so TO speak, tanned by

fright while standing at the sidewalk in

struck against the post, and caught
on the big barge standing in front of
the Z S. hotel, clearing himself from the
sleigh. Then he continued on wild run
down TO Park street, where in turning
the corner, he slipped and fell on his
side, sliding long distance. He was
then caught. No one was hurt. The
horse apparently hurt leg somewhat.
The sleigh had thill broken.
