ENGINEERING WORK OF NAVY.
While Meeting the Immediate Re-
quirements 1t Is Also Being Made
of Permanent Value.

Chief Engineer Melville, of the navy,
is not only keeping abreast of the con-
slant requirements of vessels In time
of war, but also is shaping the en-
gineering work so as TO make IL of
permanent value. The Key West sta
ton was of little account when the
war began, but gradually 1t has been
built up until now the engineering
bureau has large establishment
there with 100 men in service and
material to make speedy repairs with
out the delay incident to sending ships
north. A step of permanent advan-
tage 10 the navy is the providing of dis
tilling ships. These carry large ap-
paratus for transferring ordinary sea
water into palatable drinking water.
Ordinarily a tank steamer carrying
fresh water has comparatively a small
capacity, probably 5000 to 1000 gal
Ions, but by the process of distilling.
one pound of coal will transform 20
pounds of sea water into fresh drink
ing water. The distilling ships there
fore, carry ample supplies of coal for
their distilling apparatus, as the Goa,
represents 20 times it's weight in fresh
water. The Iris and the Rainbow are
now being fitted with distilling ma
chinery.

PHILIPPINE ISLAND EAGLES.

Country Life Illustrate: The in
surrection in the Philippine islands,
now followed by the attack on Manila
by the United States fleet, has brought
to a close very interesting set Of
expeditions to explore the animal
life of this very little known archi-
pelago These were conducted by Mr..
John Whitehead and among the re-
suits of his labors was the discovery
in 1896, of the largest eagle in the
world. 1t was shot on the Island Of
Samar one of the Philippines, where
it lives above the level of the enor-
nous forest consisting of trees eighty
yards high, and feeds on monkeys It
is larger than the golden eagle, more
powerful than the harry eagle, and
a beak higher, deeper and more for
midable than that of any other rap
torial bird. II weighs from sixteen to
twenty pounds, while the average
weight of a golden eagle is only
twelve pounds. The only full-rrown
specimen of the great forest eagle OBJ
tanned there is in the Museum of nat
ural history at South Kensington.
1t was disabled by single buckshot
in the neck, and ultimately taken
down from the tree to which it chung
by a native hunter. It's claws are as
formidable as its beak, and resemble
those of the harpy eagle.

CAMERA AT WEDDINGS.

In the east the camera at wedding
is still something of a novelty, to be
looked upon with surprise, if not with
open disapproval, says the New York
Sun. But out west nobody dreams of
getting married without camera; 1t
is regarded as Indispensable, as much
a part of the performance as the
clergyman, certainly as much so as
the bridegroom. In these days Of
amateur photography it Is
hardly necessary to call in a profess
SIGNAL operator upon these occasions.
Some half dozen members of every
bridal party are sure to be camera
fiends of the first water, and 1t re-
quires much diplomacy to decide
which one shall be asked to bring
alcng his or her camera. In nearly
every instance some ones feelings are
sure to be hurt Sometimes two
cameras are present at a marriage
ceremony, but more than this is not
considered good form in the west In
every house the photographs of the
bridal party form prominent decora-
tive feature, as is but natural when
they have been obtained under such
suspicious conditions.

BRAVE CORRESPONDENTS.

One particular class of hero OF the
late war-the newspaper correspon-
dent-has been almost overlooked in
the blaze of glory that greeted the
Homecoming of our victorious troops,
but Admiral Sampson has written the
following tribute of praise to the gem
tlemen of thu press. The Valor OF
the American newspaper man, as eX-
hibited in the late war has rightly
excited universal comment The old
time war correspondent, who re-
NAMED with the chief
miles behind the firing line, has oeen
conspicuous by his absence IN the
most recent war The chronicler OF
battle preferred TO march where the
fercest of firing was in progress, risk
ing his life for the sake of duty as
nobly and readily as the soldiers.
The world has wondered almost as
much at this heroism of the modern
newspaper man as II has at the reck-
less bravery OF the soldiers and sail
ors who carried Old Glory so impetu-
ouslv to victory. Admiral Sampson
writes:
ut gives me great pleasure to reply
to your question regarding the DehaV-
ior OF newspaper men under hre. l
take IT for granted that newspaper
men are not more fond than other
rortals of being under fire. but l
have vet to see one who did not be-
have in the best manner possible
Tbey seem prompted by sense OF du-
- ~ obtain all the news without re-
gard TO any personal exposure. ! know
az many cases where they have sought
~ Gather news first hand under cir
cumstances which could be explained
~ M other way. Yours very truly.

on Cass Lake, Red Lake, Ball Club
Turtle Lake, and the Winebishoshi
country. The trails were worn smooth
Most of the Indians were young men
and seemed to be hurrying to the
camps of the Pillagers on the northern
shores of Leech Lake. They were
well armed and equipped. Whether or
not they intended to join with the
Pillagers in the fighting do not know.
The Indians consider the Pillager
band won victory over the soldiers"
