JUSTICES COURT.
Sixty Days for Sarah Nathan
Vagrant Kelly Exiled.

In Justice Davis court yesterday
Sarah Nathan was found guilty of
vagrancy and will sojourn in the Coun-
ty Jail for the next sixty days
The case of Mrs. Silvia, charged with
disturbing the peace of neighbor, was
continued until this morning, owing
to the failure of the prosecuting wit
ness to appear.
James Kelly pleaded guilty to vag-
rancy. He thought it would take him
ten minutes to get out of the city. and
the commitment was withheld to allow
him to try. His coattails couldn't be
seen for dust, as he sprinted for the
river bridge, and he got across on time.

THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE FLAG.

One hundred and twenty-one years
ago this day the Congress Of the United
States-that is, on the 18th day Of June,
1711-decreed that the flag Of the Re
public should consist of thirteen hori-
Zontal stripes of white and red, altern-
ating. and thirteen stars upon field
of blue Later, in 1918, it was provid
ed by Act of Congress that twenty stars
should occupy the field, and that star
should be added for every State there
after admitted, the addition to be made
on the 4th day Of July succeeding the
date Of admission.
Since then twenty-five stars have
been added to the flag for the twenty
five States admitted since 1918, seven
States having come into the Union be-
tween 1777 and 1915 giving US total
Of fortyfive American sovereignties in
dissolubly united in National Union.
To-day, therefore, being the birthday
Of the American flag, it should be flung
to the breeze with new acclaim, and its
glories be given new honors in our
hearts. Already, owing to the victories
Of our navy, the flag floats over all
public buildings, and wherever a house
top is fitted to display of the emblem
Of freedom. But on this day the starry
banner should be displayed with even
greater profusion, and it's colors kiss
every doorpost in all the land.

How Cold Metal. Sometimes MIX.

Professor Roberts Austen's discov- cries on the subject of the interdiffusi. bility of metals is most interesting reading. The facts have been to some extent known to savants before the meeting of the Royal society, at which more public attention was drawn, hut on that occasion the results were made more clear It was then shown that solid metals may be made to mix them selves as if the atoms were living crea- lures.
 Professor Roberts-Austen has, in fact, discovered pieces of metal engaged in the very act of mixing the mselves up one with the other. Of course the inter est of this is that the interdiffusion of which we speak has been found to take place when the metals were cold, and, though this property in metals. to be capable of attaching themselves one to the other when cold. has been talked about before, nothing so clearly proved has hitherto been at the service of metallurgists and chemists as the facts adduced by Professor Roberts Austen. He shows that when clean surfaces of lead and gold are held together in the absence of air at a temperature of 40 degrees for four days they unite firmly and can only be separated by a force equal to one third of the breaking strain of tho lead The professor has also proved that if plate of gold be laid under one of lead about three tenths of an inch thick Tn three days gold will have risen and diffused itself to the top of the other metal in very appreciable quantity -Colliery Guar dian

The Saw.

Pliny says that the saw was first in vented by Dadalus, but, according to Apollodorus, it was the invention of Talus, who used the jawbone of a croco- dile to cut through piece of wood and then made an iron instrument in imita- tion of it. The saw is represented on the monuments of Egypt from 25OO to 5000 B. c. AS early as A. D, 1922 sawmills driven by water power were ill operation at Augsburg, and, it is be- ieved, before this they were in opera tion in Paris, driven by the current of the Seine. The first sawmill erected in the Norway pineries was in 1880. Saw mills were numerous ill Italy in the six teenth century. They were not intro duced into England until 1863, when a native of Holland built one, but was compelled to abandon it by the opposi tion of the populace, carpenters and other artisans. who saw no good in such a new tangled contrivance.

Painful Embarrassment.

Two of the smallest men III the city were standing at the curbstone waiting for car. Their conversation had been about the traditional feminine tendency to extravaganza and the difficulty they had in keeping their domestic expendi- lures down to what they considered 8 reasonable limit.
 "There they are now." exclaimed one of them.
 "Who?"
 "Our wives. And I'll bet they've been shopping"
 "They seem to be talking very ear nestly about spending something."

WOMAN AND MUSIC.
The Two Are Bound Together In All Ul
 to Date Education.

to Date Education.
 If few years ago music had been de. clared to be as necessary in education as in mathematics or physics, the state ment would have been received with amazement, if mt with derision. The early aim of common school education was the making of practical men and women, and by practical" was meant Q preparation for the ordinary bread winning affairs of life. Not that the moral side of education was ignored, but it was believed that the three R's and the hard and fast sciences, together with a general indorsement of religion and good ethics, were sufficient factors in character building and all that the schools should supply. Music, htera ture and drawing. if they found any place in the curriculum, were merely incidents that were not sUficle ntly practical to he requisites, nor was their more subtle and potent influence on the character and the higEer development of the mind appreciated or perceived. Ornamental they might be, but they were not believed to be useful. Only a visionary sentin entaJity considered these arts as necessary to public educa- tion Today art, in bread sense, occu- pies far higher place in the regard of every educator of nCte and of every man who is alive to the interests of we'll balanced and symmetrical educa- tion. In fact, the art influence in edu- cation is coming to be adequately ap- preciated, and art is no longer considered an incident in life, but rather the real ity itself.
 We are not attempting to detract from the nobility of laECr. That educa- tion which founds industries which adds to the comfort of mankind, which makes possible the cultivation of the arts, we must recognize, uphold and ad mire, but that edu cation which tells us we are not altogether commercial machines; that to love something for its innate beauty and not for its pecuniary worth is wise and good; that by loving harmony of sound we may come to love harmony of deeds; that tones which speak to us of others sorrows, making us forget self, may be of more worth in the end than much positive science-such education we are begin ming to revere and to see in it the most practical method of developing sweeter women and nobler men. .-Philadelphia l Timos

HUBER WEDDING BANQUET.
Where the Unbidden Guests Scrambled
 For Bits From the Table.


 was married in India, writes Phil Robinson, the author and traveller. en- gagged for our honeymoon little house -16 miles or so from any other habita- tion of white man-that stood on the steep white cliff of the Nebudda river, which here flows through canyon of pure white marble. Close beside our house was little hut, where a holy man lived in charge of an adjoining shrine, earning money for himself and for the shrine by polishing little pieces of marble as mementOs for visitors. It was wonderful place altogether, and while my wife went in to change her dress the servants laid breakfast on the veranda overlooking the river. At the first chatter of the plates there began to come down from the big tree that over shadowed the house, and up the trees that grew in the ravine behind it, from the house roof itself-from everywhere "a multitude of solemn monkeys. They came up singly and ill couples and in fam flies and took their places without noise or fuss on the veranda and sat there, like an audience waiting for an entertainment to commence. And when everything was ready, the breakfast all laid, the monkeys all seated, went in to call my wife.
 Breakfast is ready, and they are all waiting," said.
 "Who ar waiting?' she asked in dis may. ''I thought we were going to be alone, and was just coming out in my dressing gown"
 'Never mind," said. "The people about here are not very fashionably dressed themselves. They wear pretty much the same things all the year round''
 And so my wife came out. Imagine, then, her astOnishment. In the middle of the veranda stood her breakfast table. and all the rest of the space, as well as the railings and the steps, was covered with monkeys, as grave as possible and as motionless and silent as if they were stuffed. Only their eyes kept blinking and their little round ears kept twitch- ing. Laughing heartily-at which the monkeys only looked all the graver- my wife sat down.
 "Will they eat anything?" asked she
 "Try them,' said.
 So she picked up biscuit and threw it among the company. And the result About 300 monkeys jumped up in the air like one, and just for one instant there was riot that defies description. The next instant every monkey was sit- ting ill its place as solemn and serious as if it had never moved. Only their | eyes winked and their ears twitched. My wife threw them another biscuit, and again the riot, and then another | and another and another. But at length we had given all that we had to give and got up to go. The monkeys at once rose, every monkey on the veranda, and advancing gravely to the steps walked down them in a solemn procession, old | and young together, and dispersed for the day occupations.

Princess, 8 song above the tides, Above the wintry winds that blow, Above the wave that quickly glides And dashes madly to and fro, Sing me of other days to know. Of souls that in a garden reap Their wage of duty done below. Loose thou these memories in sleepi Tell me what dark, eternal ides Across that space their shadows throw, Clouding the happy light that rides Unto these lands of pain and woe. Brother and sister gone, forego Fairy hilltops and valleys deep. Come, or, if this be never so,
 Loose ye these memories in sleepi Ah, well, a splendid city hides
 The little boy of long agoi Beneath a village church wall bides A slender mound above the snow, And thus tine fleet years come and go. Poor hands of mine that cannot keep Backward the waters ebb and flow. Loose ye these memories in sleep.
