PRIMARY ELECTIONS
A LAW REGARDING THEM
According to the New Codes None But
Qualified Voters are Entitled to Vote.
Interesting Local Paragraphs
and Many Personal Items.

The near approach of the time for
holding political primaries makes this
an opportune hour to refer briefly to
the law governing precinct elections
1t should be remembered that under the
new codes none but qualified electors
are entitled to vote at precinct pri-
maries and that in addition only such
persons as are or intend to become iden-
titled with the political party holding
the primary have right to take part
therein. The law provides further that
at the opening Of a primary three
judges shall be chosen by the qualified
voters present, who shall beside all
questions relating to the qualifications
OF those Offering TO vote, count the votes
cast, certify tneresult and be empowered
to admin, Ter oaths. The judges shall
select one OF their number to act as
clerk, whv must take the name and
residenc. Of each and every person
voting. Any qualified elector has the
right to challenge any person, who, upon
being challenged shall not be entitled
to vote unless he swears it in. If he
swears falsely he is liable for perjury.

SHOOTING AT SEA.
from q Ships Deck-Rule Followed
by Americnn Navy. Z

Necessarily the deck of vessel at
iet1n from which to shoot than the
solid foundation provided in land fort,
since even when the ocean is calmest
the vessels must constantly roll from
side to side. Theoretically the best
time to fire would be at the moment be-
tween the rolls, when the deck of the
ship is perfectly level, and in e. general
way it may be said that an attempt is
made to do the shooting at that in
slant. 1t is practically impossible,
however, to fire invariably when the
decks are horizontal. No matter how
careful the gunner, the piece is almost
always exploded just before or just
after the proper instant, says the New
York Press.
The American practice, both in the
army and navy, has always been to
shoot low and always save ammunition
until it was possible to use it effective
ly. In the navy the tradition to shoot
low has crystaized into a standing rule,
unwritten, indeed, but none the less re-
ligiously observed, and it's wisdom has
been proved on more than one occasion
of great Importance.
The precise form of this unwritten
naval rule is to "wait for the downward
roll" This is the converse of the maxim
obtaining in the British navy that it is
best to take advantage of the upward
roll" which has been observed almost
from the beginning Of naval fighting by
the gunners on English ships.
This was rendered the more certain
from the fact that the spherical projec-

the surface of the waves if they struck

thrown from the hand of small boy,

Cats of other Days.

The lot of the average nineteenth
century cat does not compare favorably
with that of its ancestors Everybody
knows that the early Egyptians held
the cat sacred and any one injuring a
sacred animal was liable to severe pun
ishment. Among the ancient laws Of
Wales was statute which prohibited
the slaughter of cat under curious
penalty. The owner of the slaughtered
animal held it by the tip of the tail,
with its nose touching the floor, and the
slayer had to give him, by way of COM
pensation, as much wheat as would
bury the entire animal out of sight
The grain was supposed to represent
the amount that the owner would lose
through the depredations of vermin by
being deprived of the cat.
Saxony, Switzerland and other Eu-
ropean countries also had laws enacted
for the protection of cats, which were
regarded of economic value. Now, how
ever, pussy is simply a decorative do
mestic adjunct.

HORSES ACTIONS IN BATTLE
Some Keep Their Heads In the Mad Rush;
Some Lose Them

Some Lose Them.
A man seldom cries out when hit in
the turmoil of battle. 1t is the same
with horse. Five troopers out of six,
when struck by a bullet, are out of their
saddles within minute. If hit in the
breast or shoulder, up go their hands
and they get a heavy fall; if in the leg
or foot or arm, they fall forward ard
roll off. But even with foot cut off
by jagged piece Of shell horse will
not drop. 1t is only when shot through
the head or heart that he comes down.
He may be fatally wounded, but he
hobbies out of the fight to right or left
and stands with dropping head until
loss of blood brings him down. The
horse that loses his rider and is I'M
wounded himself will continue to run
with his set Of tours until some move
ment throws him out. Then he goes
galloping here and there, neighing with
fear and alarm, but will not leave the
field. In his racing about he may get
among the dead and wounded, but he
will dodge them, if possible, and in
any case leap over them. When he has
come upon three or four other riderless
steeds, they fall in and keep together,
as if for mutual protection, and the
rally on the bugle may bring the
whole of them into the ranks in body.
A horse which has passed through a
battle unwodnded is fretful, sulky and
nervous-the same as man-for the
next three or four days. His first battle
is also the making or unmaking of him
as warhorse. If the nervous tension
has been too great, he will become
bolter in the face of danger, and there
by become danger in himself If the
test has not been beyond him, he will
go into the next fight with head held
high and fieoks Of foam blowing from
his mouth as he thunders over the
earth. Washington Post

that Of Baron Albert Grant of Emma

his day and generation. He made mil
lions almost as deftly as the late Mr.
Barney Barnato, and he spent them
right royalty. He bought Leicester
square and presented it, a free gift, to
the people of London. He gave din
ner. to nearly a thousand city magnates
at a cost, which was popularity reputed
at the time to have exceeded 100 guineas
a head, and which, in any event, I'M
doubtedly established a record in ex-
travagant dinner giving which has yet

And he started out to build palace
in Kensington which should "knock
spots off" all other private residences,
past, present. or to come. Everything
was got up regardless of expense. The
ballroom walls were inset with panels
Of pink Italian marble, costing 500
guineas each. In the entrance hall were
four pillars of porphyry, worth 81. 900
The building was scarcely finished
when the crash came, and it remained
for long brick and mortar white ele-
