The Fnstpet Light.

The first glimpse of Great
Britain that the American tourist
gets on his European tour is that
of the Fastnet lighthouse
1t stands on rugged and soil
tary rock, situated nine miles
south of Crookhaven, at the ex-
treme southwest corner of Ireland,
and is, perhaps, more ssorm-beat.
en- than any other ar~snd our
coast. The rock is so feet in
height, and the lighthouse towers
another 70 feet above, yet, in
winter gales, the Atlantic billows
literally lombard the massive
structure and have even smashed
in a portion of the lantern at the
summit of the erection, the seas
frequently sweeping over the rock
with tremendous force. Some
two or three years ago the stormy
weather then prevailing prevented
all communication with the rock
for many weeks, so that the store
of food was consumed, with the
exception of some flour. AT
last a schooner managed to
approach sufficiently near to
enable a small quantity of food to
be dragged through the sea by the
hungry men, and, fortunately, the
next day the sea moderated and
the stores were once more fully
replenished.
Except in very calm weather
the Fastnet is surrounded by q
fringe of foam, and the only
means of landing is by the aid of
a "jib" fifty eight feet in length,
so placed on the rock that, in mo-
derate weather, its end reaches
outside the surf. When a visitor
wishes to land ian unusual occur
rence) he is rowed in a small boat
as near as the waves will permit,
and the light-keepers throw out a
small buoy, attached to rope,
which is secured by the man in
the boat. The jib is then swung
out and the visitor, placing one
foot in the loop and catching tight
hold of the rope, is hoisted about
forty feet vertically, and then the
jib, being pivoted at its foot,
swings him horizontally about 100
feet onto safe landing.-London

It is held that the military instinct Is
an inherent part of the human compo-
sition. Whether or not it is taint of
barbarianism, inherited from far back
savage ancestry, as is claimed by some
theorist, does not matter. It's existence
is recognized fact, and must, in some
manner find satisfaction. If left to
itself it would be dangerous element
in society seeking EXPRESSION in brawls,
duels and other lawless forms. In times
of peace, therefore it is highly neces-
sary that there should be some legal
disciplined avenue through which the
martial spirit of the population should
harmlessly expend itself, Such an ad-
junct to our modern life is the National
Guard,
1t would be injustice, however, to
this organization TO credit it with a
merely passive usefulness Not only
does 1t stand as a means of utilizing the
combative impulse of the young man to
his own good, but, when not abused, 1t
is a safeguard of citizenship, and a val
liant defender of the States honor and
good name.
Ohio has special reason to be proud Of
its National Guard, for it ranks among
the best equipped and most Efficient in
the country. In point of strength Ohio
is exceeded only by New York and
Pennsylvania. The total number of
officers and enlisted men on March 81,

we are now cooTly informed oy the
local press that the extensive barbor
defences at Sandy Hook are complet-
ed, mounting many twelve-inch rineo
guns, dynamite guns and rifed NOR
tars. and that no foreign heet could
possibly pierce the defences OF the
Narrows. The truth seems to be that
work has been pushed very rapidly,
and the extensive fortification known
as Fort Hancock, on Sandy Hook, Is
now practically completed. This Is
the most formidable and scientific
piece of fort-making ever done. and
doubtless places fearful obstacle In
the pathway OF any possible hostile

the new forts at Fort Schuyler and
Willett's Point, and 1t will be but a
few months before the venerable
criticism as to the defencelessness OF
this port will be laid away forever.

The sudden Illness OF Mr.. Cornelius

Cornelius Vanderbilt is of the third

Hawk Fought Pig.

Near shelbyville. Ind, the other day
Q hawk was seen lowering over the
farm of . man named Houghman.
Beneath the hawk was an old SOW
with a troop Of little pigs at her hoofs.
It was on these that the hawk had its
eyes, and all of a sudden 1t dived and
grasped one OF them in Its talons and
attempted to carry It away. But the
old SOW made for It,
Instead Of flying away as one would
have expected, the hawk turned ON
the SOW and made dashes at her eyes
and hit her with its strong wings, be-
wtldering the beast completely, A wit

ing that the old SOW was liable to be
badly injured, sneaked up to the COM
batants and captured the hawk after
some difficulty. since the hawk was
quite as willing to fight a man as q
