a black eye is simply bruise, black

being very loose and spongelike in texture,
the blood which escapes beneath the skin
in all cases of bruising and constitutes tho
black and blue mark spreads very widely
and causes great Disagreement
Sometimes if the injury has been Sc

meath the membrane covering the eyeball,

the efficient protection afforded by the

A feature of the modern gun will doubt
less be its accuracy of aim, says Professor
Ira \. Hollis in The Atlantic. The guns
of the first monitor had the ordinary
sights, and the men had to look out
through the portfolios of revolving tur-
ret TO find the enemy. We might say they
often fired con the wing" with very in
definite notions of the range and the brief
est instant for training the guns. The
Iowa ) turrcts have small boxes projecting
above the covers for lookouts. Horizontal
Sits are cut near the tops of these boxes,
giving view around the horizon.
The guns themselves are aimed by
means of cross hairs in telescopes and fired
b. electric buttons which are instantane-
Gus in their action. Once the cross hair
is on the object, the projectile may be sent
on its way at velocity of 1000 teet Sec
ond before the roll OF the ship has time to
impair it's accuracy. The range is found
by means OF Instruments set up as far
apart as possible, which make the ship the
base line of triangle having the target
for its apex. In case Of failure of the in
struments the range may be found by trial
of the rapid fire guns, which deliver from
20 20 shots minute.

English Womcn,s Shoes.

1t is funny about English womcn's
shoes They never have anything but
sensible flat heels for walking, but when it
comes to u dancing slipper no French heel
is too high for them. But they keep a
great variety of footgcar and are prepared
for any. occasion. Thus Lady Ermyntrude
Russell, when she married Sir Edward
Malet, included no less than 1000 pairs Of
boots, shoes aid slippers in her trousseau.
This was an unusual supply, however. 1t

American Craftsmanship Shown In a Story
About Crespo.

About Crespo.
In Golfers Weekly are some anecdotes
of tho late president Of Venezuela. One
runs: Another little incident that occurred
during the winter of 1896 showed Crespo's
thirst for notoriety and theatrical display.
Shortly after tho episode with Great Brit
ain there came to Caracas travelling
American variety company. Among the
performers was young woman who did
marvellous fancy shooting with rifle. The
news of the fair Americana proves soon
reached the ears Of the president who in
vited her to give a private exhibition at
Santa IneZ. She and her manager were
not slow in accepting, and they reached
the executive mansion one bright Sunday
morning. After the uSSal stock variety
performance a number Y glass balls were
smashed with the rifle in every imaginable
position. Crespo was amazed, and, turn
ing to the young woman, said, "Do you
think you could hit one of those balls If 1
placed it ON the top Of my head?''
81 should esteem it the honor of my
life, Senior Presidente," she calamity re-
piled.
Mrs. Crespo and the entire cabinet were
present and Cndeavored to persuade the
president not to do anything SO foolhardy.
LII WIS all III VIII, IONeNeFJ 1Or, removing
his hat and placing one of the glass balls
upon his head, Crispo turned to the by
ISLANDERS and said dramatically, 1.-THE
United States has been the friend of Vene-
2uela, and I will show my confidence in
the aim of an American. -
The president of Venezuela then took
position across the courtyard, and from
distance of IS feet the young woman
smashed the target at the first shot, and
CreSpo brushed away the fragments with
his handkerchief
The next day the little incident was tho
talk of Caracas, and many were the criti-
cisms heard of the presidents lack of dig
nifty. The young markswoman and her
manager were quick to realize the great
advertisement, however, and after leaving
Venezuela they announced the episode in
display type. They even went so far as to
say that the revolutionists had offered the
woman 100000 to accidentally miss her
target and place a bullet in the forehead
of the president knowing well that Cres-
pos bravado would make him suggest her
attempting the shot.

A MOOtcd Point.

Il believe that batsman should
overlook the first ball pitched; it
makes no difference whether the ball
is served at height and pace that is
to the liking of the batsman," says
President Watkins of the Pirates. "Of
course there are pitchers who possess
almost perfect control of the ball, such
as Nichols and Griffith. With these
twirlers facing us | wouldn't always
cue my men to take the first strike,
though that would depend to a great
extent on how Nick and Grif were
pitching that day. But in overlooking
the first ball pitched the batsman has
not only chance to collect his
thoughts and pull himself together for
battle of brains with the pitcher. He
also is in a position to work the twirl-
er for enough wide balls to walk on.
and you know base on balls is better
than clean single when the bases are
not occupied"

went TO Portland when the league
broke up and played there through the
season of 1896. Last season he was

they use these as nets to scoop up the

there until sufficient of their food has

or by "dray." The various buildings,

village. Nearest the railroad, it may
be, is the cooks shanty;" next it,
perhaps is the mems shantv," or
sleeping quarters of the crew; near
them again is the Office, where the
camp accounts are kept, and where the
foreman and sealer sleep. The barn,
or "hoyel." is at the end of the camp,
with the granary beside it. The black
smiths shop, and the workbench OF

"root cellar" which is both pantry and
cold storage room, is built where the
cook and his assistants have ready ac.
cess to it. The cooks shanty is the
dining room as we'll as kitchen. while
the office Is also a storehousc from
which the timberjacks can obtain to-
bacco and such principal articles of
clothing as they may need. All the
chief buildings are long and low, made
of rough boards or logs, and rooHd
with sheeting and tar paper. The

are built along the side Of the cabin
in tier two deep; this shanty is the
