Cautious Praise.

Mr. Orchardson, the famous English
artist, has lately given the public an
insight into his experiences with golf
that mysterious game so fascinating to
the initiated, of which the charm is so
incomprehensible to the outsider.
1t is but recently that Mr.. Orchard
son, who is past middle life although
in the prime of healthful vigor, has
transferred his affections from hunting
and tennis, his former favorite sports,
to the national game of his country
for he is Scotchman. He played his
first game of golf at st. Andrews.
81 remember" he says, II had the
queerest, most solemn looking caddie
imaginable. / made fearful mess of it
at first, and the little chap looked on
without word. At last, when l had
finished the round, he looked up at me
in the funniest way and simply said,
It's nae use playin golf unless We lairn
it as laddie.
but must tell you that the next
day had this same caddie, and got on
much better / was almost annoyed
with him for not praising me, for he
was as silent as ON the day before. But
when we finished, he turned to me and
said, as if resuming our last converse
ton, 'Aweel, A dinua ken.
Being Scot himself, the artist was
therefore satisfied with what he doubt
less interpreted as a handsome apology
and hearty encouragement.

General Crook is quoted by Edward
s. Ellis as having seen an Apache lope
for /, 500 feet up the side of mountain
without showing the first sign of IA
tigue, there being no perceptible in
crease of respiration. Captain II. L.
Scott of the Seventh cavalry has related
some astonishing feats performed by the
Chiracahua Apaches forming Troop l.
Of his regiment. He tells how nine of
these Indians, after hard days work,
by way of recreation, pursued coyote
for two hours, captured the nimble
brute and brought it into camp; how,
on another occasion, the scouts gave
chase to deer, ran it down some nine
miles from camp and fetched it in alive.
Hence see no good reason for doubt
ing the word of an old timer met in
the Rocky mountains, who told me that,
in the days before the Atlantic and Pa
cific railroad was built, the Pima In
dams of Arizona would recover settlers
stray horses along the overland trail
by walking them down in the course OF
two or three days. After this one may
begin to believe that Lying Jim"
Beckwourth, whose remarkable adven-
lures early in this century are preserved
in book FORM was q much mallgned
man, and that he spoke no more than
the truth when he said he had known

A remarkable illustration of the scope
of Mr.. Gladstone's power as linguist
was given many years ago when he adj
dressed an assembly on the island of
Corfu in modern Greek, little later
spoke to an assembly in Florence in
Italian, a few days later conversed with
ease in German with Bismarck, soon
afterward responded in fluent French
to toast at a banquet in Paris, and
then crossed the channel to deliver a
five hours speech in parliament ON the

CH,MNEYS KNOCKED OUT

Machine Shops Can Be Run MSre
Economically wsthout Them.
A few years ago. the building IF a
machine shop without chimney would
have been looked upon as the act 81 an
idiot Now it maybe the wisest thing
builder can do, efor the large fan
which is taking the: place of the ohm
ney costs great deal less than thedofty
stack, and does it's work much hetter.
Besides this there is great saving in
fuel.
In one plant where this experiment
was tried there were three boilers, ag-
gregating 260 horsepower, and directly
above them was amounted fan connect
ed direct with a-5 by double cylinder
engine. The wheel of the fan was "a
inches in diameter, and as it could be
run at any speed it providedAa draft
quite independents of the fire. 7It was
possible to Use much cheaper grade of
coal and the saving thus effected was
quite appreciahle.
For instance, with the ordinary form
of chimney the shop would use 1924
tons of Cumberland coal, at $3.50, ag-
gregating So, 929, a year. Using the
blower, a mixture of Cumberland coal
and yard screenings, half and half,
would suffice. This, at So. S511E, would
amount to 81, 2a5, showing difference
of 1884. The cost of operatingst the fan
was placed at $1S3 per annum, SO that
the net gain was $751;, sum greater
than the entire cost of the mechanical
draft apparatus.-St Louis Glohe-Dem-
