Ingenious Wood Rata.

The wood rat of the western slopes of
the Cascade range is curious creature
that loves to steal SO well that it is
known to many as the camp robber. It
carries off anything it can lay its lips
to, and is besides jolly, reckless fel-
low. 1t does things which rodents are
not given to doing.
Forest and Stream tells Of some of its
favorite spoils. It will take knives,
forks and tin plates, cartridges, cups
and anything it can handle in the line
of clothing, towels or gun rags, which
make soft Innings for it's nest. It is re-
lated how pair of these rats staked off
a claim on top Of a hunters camp stove
and put up the most CURIOUS rat house
anybody ever heard of. About 200 yards
away was railroad shanty, where the
section men kept their supplies. and
among other things was keg of rail-
road spikes such as are used to fasten
the rails to the ties. The rats took some
spikes to their claim. built up an iron
wall and lined the interior with soft
stuff. It is curious fact that all the
points of the spikes were directed out
ward, and they were laid with great
regularity and firmness.
The habits Of the rat are a study for
q naturalist, and it makes things so in
teresting for the natives that they kill
1t on sight.

A Paradise For Criminals.

A correspondent, writing from Italy,
gives some interesting details Of the
treatment of prisoners on various Ital-
ian islands he visited while on trip
in the Mediterranean. Each of these is
lands contains several hundred prison
ers, who are locked up every night at
sunset, released at daybreak, and locked
up again from midday until O'Clock.
During the night no prisoner is allowed
to be absent under any circumstances,
but at midday those who work on farms
at distance from the prison are al
lowed to remain out by special permis-
sion Of the director.
During these free hours the prisoners
can go anywhere they like on the is
land, and can engage in any work Of
fered them by the townspeople or farm.
ers. Any infraction of the rules Of or
dinary life around them or of their pris-
ON is punished by seclusion in special
cells.
The government furnishes physicians
and medicines, a summer and winter
suit Of clothes to each prisoner every
year and allows him fivepence daily in
money for his food and other necessaries
Of life. Danger of escape is prevented by
a squad of soldiers-one to every ten
criminals-and swift sailing felucca.
manned by marines. On account Of the
cheapness Of labor, the islands are so
highly cultivated as to resemble gardens.
The correspondent adds: "As for the
prisoners, the open air makes them the
healthiest Of any criminals have ever
seen. There is no sign in their faces and
bodies of that prison blight which strikes
every visitor to ordinary jails. LION.

The Cherokees' Plant.

IF the United States government
would only carry out its solemn agree
ments with the FIVE civilized tribes, our
people would have nothing to complain
Of" said Chief G. ]. Harris Of the
Cherokee nation at the National hotel.
Contracts and promises that we trust
ed to the honor Of this great nation to
execute have been violated, and there
seems to be no intention ON the part of
the government to redeem them. When
we sold the Cherokee strip, we were
told, as an inducement to parting with
the lands. that all previous pledges
would be carried out. That promise was
broken like the rest.
''Now, ! maintain that the United
States ought to 60 forward and make
good its past agreements before entering
ON further Indian legislation. When
that is done. it will be time enough for
the Indians to say whether they are in
accord with the desires of the govern
ment. Until that is done all bills chang
ing the existing status are obnoxious to
our people. "-Washington Post.

FLEET GOLFERS.
The Problem of supplying Battleships
with Coal In War Times.


with Coal In War Times.
A few years ago, to the astonishment
Of many people, Admiral Sir Michael
Culme-Seymour demonstrated the pos
sibility, provided the conditions Of
weather and sea be not especially unfa-
vorable, Of coaling battleships in mid
Atlantic. Trouble, anxiety and certain
amount Of risk are involved, but all
these disadvantages might be notably
lessened if instead of employing ordinary
tramp colliers Of small tonnage we built
class of fleet colliers" specially de-
signed for the service Of the navy in war
time, and if attached to them we main
tained corps of officers and men all
specialists in the arts and mystery Of
coaling ships.
The features desirable in such vessel
are great coal carrying capacity, high
speed, we'll protected stern, a moder-
ately heavy gun mounted as stern
chaser and all the latest and best appli
ances to facilitate rapid coaling from
her. No navy as yet possesses vessel Of
the sort. Her value and usefulness
| would, nevertheless, be enormous. For
in most seas greater proportion of
moderate than rough weather is en-
countered In many seas there are is
lands or rocks the lee afforded by which
might be utilized for coaling purposes if
only colliers happened to be upon the
spot, and if it were standing rule in
any squadron to which 'fleet colliers"
were attached that ships should fill up
with coal at every possible opportunity,
even if at the moment they did not ac-
tually need it, the ability Of our vessels
to operate effectively at long distances
from their regular bases would be enor-
mously furthered.
As for the "fleet collier" herself,
when cruising with a feet she would
have no difficulty in keeping up with it,
and could therefore be protected by it,
and when detached her speed-22 or 90
knots-would enable her to outstrip all
but the very fastest of the enemy s
cruisers Her armored stern would
shield her from the shells even of them,
and her heavy stern chaser would enable
her to return at least as good as might
be sent after her by her foe. She might

coal in addition to supplies for herself.
If opportunity offered, she might dis.
charge her cargo at some temporary
base and return home for more. She
would be neither an impediment nor an
anxiety to any feet to which she might
be attacked, but rather source Of com.
fort and security, and in the event Of q
fatal accident occurring to one Of the
other vessels in company she could re-
ceive the homeless crew, and even wait
about in the vicinity Of the catastrophe
for time without delaying her consort:
for an instant. So many advantages, in
deed, would result, especially in war
time, from the employment Of vessels
of this nature that it is astonishing tina
nothing of the kind has up to the pres
ent been constructed. 1t is not too mucl
to say that the most serious preoccupa
: tion Of the modern admiral during &C
, tive operations is the question Of Goa
supplies. Nineteenth Century.
