New England at Manila.

New England had eighteen naval Of
ficers aboard the Yankee battleships
which broke the calm and silence of
the Sabbath in the harbor of Manila
with roar Of guns and bursting shells.
Despite the Puritanical training in
youth, they fought just as if it wasn't
Sunday. The bells did not call them
to church. The summons of the morn
ing was of a different character and to
higher duty. Maine was represented
by one officer, New Hampshire by five,
Vermont by two, Massachusetts by
four, Rhode Island by two, and Con-
necticut by four. The sailor heroes
without any titles cannot be dug out
Of the long lists at this time, but later,
when the smoke has cleared a little,
their names will appear ts bright and
shining letters. Vermont had the hon
or of furnishing the commander of the
deet.-Boston Globe.

But a Moment to Edison.

When at work solving some mechan-
fcal problem Mr.. Edison Is completely
absorbed, so much so that he is lit
orally unconscious of what goes on
about him. On one occasion, when he
vas called to Chicago, thought" as
he calls his problems, came to him as
he reached the railway station in Jer-
sey City. He took his seat in the train
and was soon in deep study. When
the porter called out Chicago" Edi-
son turned to fellow passenger with
the remark that the porter must be
Joking, as they had only just gotten
outside Of Jersey City. The wizards"
mind was so concentrated upon an
electrical problem that the twenty-four
hours seemed but a f1eeting moment to
him. After the suburbs Of Jersey City
had been left behind his mind was
closed to everything, and he became
so absorbed in his problem that he did
not realize that all his fellow passen-
gers had had nights sleep and had
eaten three meals.

The latest development In the card
club prize in one of the laxge cities Of
this country Is theater bcx. It seems
that the hostesses exhausted every
kind of prizes and the guests grew
blase, so some clever wo2an offered
as a prize box for an eveaing at one
of the swell theaters, and from that
day it became a fad. One woman,
speaking of it, said: why, last week
I won $50 box at one Of the smartest

MISUNDERSTANDING Wives.

A remarkable decision has been CIV
en- recently by a Kentucky court. A
man sued his wife for divorce on the
ground that she beat him. 1t was
clearly a case of extreme cruelty, and
yet the court would not grant the pc
tition. The principle that woman
may discipline her husband by a re-
sort to physical force consequently has
the weight Of judicial authority We
need hardly add that this puts the hus-
band in a deplorable position.-Prov-
idence Journal.

Pawnbrokers' Balls,

The Lombards were the first great
money lenders; and OF the Lombards,
the princeIy Medici family of Florence
were the first to make the lending of
money a regular business; hence, the
loan Offices came to adopt the arms of
the Medici family on which were three
gilt balls By some the origin of these
balls is traced to the exploit of Aver
ardo de Medici, a commander under
Charlemagne. The bold warrior slew
the giant, Mugello, whose club had
three iron balls, which the family
adopted as their coat of arms. Be this
as it may, three balls are commence
rahve of the Medici family, who were
the first pawnbrokers, as it were.

No individual is responsible for the
DELAY in equipping the volunteer army.
lJ arises from the failure of Congress to
appropriate money in time of peace for
war equipments. There is plenty of
money now, but it takes time to make
