MR.. GRATEBAR TO PHILIP.
He Remi ds Him That Things Are Not
Automatic, and Suggests How
to Make Them Go.

II cannot too strongly impress upon
you, Philip" said Mr.. Gratebar, accord
ing to the New York Sun, "the fact that
things in general are not automatic;
that is, they will not do themselves;
and the longer you put off the attack
upon them the harder they are to
tackle. Don't put things off. Philip.
To things that require deliberation you
will give sufficient thought; but, as to
the run of things that come up, acquire
the habit of disposing of them as they
come along; you will find it a great help
in many ways. Don't cord 'em up,
Philip; the first thing you know you
will have more stacked up than you can
saw, and then, too, the pile is liable to
fall on you at any time and hurt you.
Two things to remember, Philip:
First, things are not automatic. Sec
ond, the time to attend to things is now.
u may have mentioned these things
to you before, Philip, think very like
ly, In my strong desire to get you
started right in the race of life; but
youth, impressionable as 1t is in many
ways, seems least susceptible to good
advice, which indeed it appears to shed
much as duck does water. And so !
mention these things again to you,
Philip, with the hope that if my previous
remarks met that fate these will find
Judgement in your memory box"

LOOKED LIKE A SPANIARD.
Men ScOwled and JOstled Until 1.-The
BrOKue" brought n Cheer
and Peace.

A swarthy man with jet black mus
tache that curlcd fiercely stood the 9TH
er afternoon in the crowd that watched
the war bulletins, says the New York
World. He wore 4 soft hat with a wide
brim and big black tie under the col
lar of blue shirt. There was a cynical
expression on his face, and a menacing
look in his dark eyes. From top to toe
he looked like an "unspeakable Span
lard" The men near him did not ap-
prove of his appearance. They drew
away and began looking at him with
defiance and dislike apparent in every
feature. \ newsboy spat disdainfully
at the swarthy mans feet. A labOreT
justled him. Another man trod on his
feet. All of these insults passed unno-
ticed. The swarthy man was busy read
ing the bulletins. \ driver on truck
snapped his whip at him. Then the
swarthy man dropped his eyes and be-
came conscious Of the unfavorable at
tention he was attracting. Thrusting
his hands in his pockets, he looked
scornfully around, and, with biting sar-
casm, said:
"Phat the divil are yez loollin' at?"
"Hurrah," cried the newsboy, "he's
all right"
Thereupon the others laughed, and
the swarthy man laughed with them.

There, now, there's your picture all

A FRENCH CANADIAN EXODUS.
Mill Operatives Scared Away from
New England Villages by
War Talk.

There has been a large exodus of
villages of New England since the war
talk began. 1t may not be the fear of
war alone which have impelled those
who have gone to pack up and scurry
across the Canadian border, but the war
has undoubtedly had very much inf1u-
ence in the matter. The operatives have
been somewhat dissatisfied since wages
were cut in the cotton mills, and the
coming of the war added to their belief
that this Yankeeland was not the abode
of milk and honey they had formerly
thought it, says the New York Sun.
From all over the state and the viii
lagos in Connecticut and Massachusetts
come reports of the French Canadian
exodus. From Woonsocket alone 81
persons have left this week, and dozens
of families had fled before. The Paw
tucket valley villages tell the same
story, and what is true of this section
is also true of other New England vii
lagos.
1t must not be supposed that all
the French Canadians in New England
partake of this spirit. While these mill
operatives are by no means a warlike
people there are many among the young
er element who would be glad to fight
for the United States if they were
needed.
Many of those who remain are very
much troubled regarding the future,
and mill men say that they are being
constantly asked regarding the proba-
bility of aliens being drafted.

The Force of n Rife Bullet.

In the English off1cial regulations for
1898 it is stated that the mean extreme
range of the Lee-Metford bullet may
be taken as about 3 500 yards, although.
with a strong wind, 3,760 yards have
been observed The bullets find their
way through joints of walls, unless the
walls are made very fine and set in
cement. About $50 rounds, concentrat-
ed on nearly the same spot at 200 yards,
will break a nine-inch brick wall.
Rammed earth gives less protection
than loose. When fired into sand the
bullet is found to be always turned
aside after ii has entered little way
The following thicknesses Of material
Qn inches) are usually necessary TO
stop the regulation .303 inch bullet:

The reason why Christopher Colum-
bus has not yet been numbered among
the saints may not be generally known.
1t seems that his beatifcation has been
urged for centuries, but has never been
decreed because his marriage certifi-
cate could not be procured, and conse-
quently his welded life, he leaving a
son (Diego), was considered concubin-
age. Now that the Congregation of
Rites has recently discovered the miss
ing certificates, all obstacles are re-
moved, and ere long we may hear of
''Christopher Columbus beatus."
