RetMeen Grub and CT lrY.

This amusing incident, rom the
war budget of Massachusetts, pri-
vate, indicates that at times the minds
of our brave boys were about evenly
divided between grub and glory, with
leaning toward grub, says Youths
Companion.
The first night on the island Of
Cuba, one of the boys was marching
they were struggling along in single
file-when he espied nice plump,
wattled bird perched in tree
fifty yards to the left.
"a wild turkey'l A wild turkey!"
he yelled.
Up to his shoulder went his rifle.
Bangl The bird fell and the marks
man dashed into the brush after his
prize. His comrades awaited his re-
turn, visions of square meal" float
ing before them. Out of the brush
he came, thumb and finger tightly
clutching his nose.
s'Buzzardp he muttered, and the
disappointed boys resumed tkAa
march.

AWAY .p ON tha Unner Saskatnheuan

away sp on the Upper Saskatchewan,
the prairies are settled exclusively by
cattlemen, who have their ranches
covering thousands of square miles.
They are the only inhabitants, as it
is their wish to be, for these cattlemen
are unsociable fellows in their bust
ness life and do not care for the close
companionship of farmers and towns
men.
For years to come the future of the
ranch cattle business of the northern
portion of the American continent
will be in this region, where buffalo
grass, plenty of water and wooded
rivers, room for millions of head, and
no intruding small farmers to fence
off the water holes and cut the feed,
offer attractions that the Montana and
Dakota regions are rapidly losing.
The big ranchmen are leaving these
latter districts, and most of them are
going to Texas, but the rational
course is to the north, and that way
will be the next great movement, say
those in the business. -New York

A Relic of Emin Pasha.

A relic of Emin Pasha's last expedi-
ton has just been received by Messrs.
Welcome and Co. 1t consists OF q
tabloid medicine chest, which was re-
covered from the natives near Kenia,
in the Aruwhimi country. The case
was taken by Arabs after the murder
of Emin in October, 1892, and, after a
career of adventure that must have
tried it sorely, it passed into the pos
session of Baron Dhanis, the COM
mander of the Congo Free State
troops, when he defeated the Congo
Arabs at Kasongo. Messrs. Bur-
roughs & Welcome send us q photo
graph of the chest, which, although .
little battered. still shows clearly in
Roman capitals the name "Emin
Pasha." The ,tabloids, however, were
rome whom the chest was recovered,
and one can only hope that the MUIR
derers of Emin Pasha suffered poetic
iustice by consuming them as delica-
cies. The last state Of the case was TO
serve as a village treasury CD rest. =

sEA-BRED CARRIER PIGEONS.

Now to Acquire a Good Service by Feath-
cred Messengers From Ship to Shore.
Captain John r. Bartlett, United
States navy, retired, chief of the coast
signal service during the war with
Spain, has reported to the department
on the value of carrier pigeons for
signalling purposes. In substance he
reports:
"That experiments be made for the
purpose of training homing pigeons in
connection with coast signalling, for
the reason that they offer solution of
the problem of communication with
vessels in the off shore patrol feet.
These vessels would most probably
operate in districts having established
bases, and at such distance from the
coast and from the inshore patrol that
visual signalling would be impossible.
A homing pigeon service cannot be
improvised and be of any real value.
The birds must be systematically and
patiently trained for year or two.
not only to equip the cotes with trained
carriers for that locality, but to fur
nish stock with sea-bred breeders.
Experimental cotes should be located
at the bases of naval coast defense
districts, small vessel provided with
carrier pigeon outfit and an officer
detailed to develop this means of COM
munication and superintend the sys-
tematic training of the birds. Unless
this is done with intelligence and
thoroughness for at least year it
would be useless to rely upon it at
all. Such system could be very
economically inaugurated and could
be maintained at comparatively
slight cost. A simple routine OF
drills, exercises and reports based
upon our recent experiences could be
readily put into operation and small
rewards or appropriate ratings would
stimulate proficiency. In times OF
peace such service would be OF CON
slant convenience to this department.
and to the maratime interests OF the
country, and the constant practice
would prepare the men for the emer-
gencies Of war.
Attention is called to the fact that
every other maritime nation has such
. system, generally much moro elabo-
rate than the one herein proposed, Or
ganized by and operated under III
naval or maratime department.

THE SURGEONS DISCOVERY.
Found That Irishmen Had Calloused
Spots on Their Shonlders

Found That Irishmen Had CaIloused
Spots on Their shoulders.
A young physician, some years ago
appointed as inferno at one of tho
hospitals in Cincinnati at one time
made discovery that nearly made
him famous. While in attendance al
this hospital scafiolding erected fol-
convenience of workmen at building
in course of erection in Cincinnati
broke down injuring seven Irishmen.
The young disciple of Esculapiua
was in the receiving room when the
patrol wagons brought in the men.
In examining one OF the men for in.
juries he discovered calloused spot
on the right shoulder. He thought
nothing of this, until looking over the
second man, on whom he discovered
the same spot. He then went over
the entire batch of injured men, and
found the same mark on each Shout
der.
Concealing his discovery from his
supporters, the young man went about
all day with visions of fame floating
through his brain. In every conceiv-
able way he managed to obtain a
glance during the day at each mans
shoulder, to be sure the callGused
marks were still there.
That night he locked himself Sc
curely in his bedchamber and prepared
paper, in which at great length he
dilated upon the discovery he had
made. He wrote pages upon the PEI
culiar structural formation of the
Irishmen's bodies, and stated that, al
though in descending generations pos
sibly the spot would be nearly oblit.
Grated so as to become almost unno-
ticeable, yet he had no doubt that if
each and every Irishman in the world
was examined, traces of this calloused
spot could be found on the shoulder.
In the morning, bursting with his
newly acquired information, he took
one of the physicians of the institu.
ton into his confidence. The physi-
clan listened. to the young man with
an air of interest, and then asked:
"On what shoulder does this cal
loused spot occur %
"The right one-the right" ex-
claimed the young man. "And [ am
sure it can be found on all Irishmen's
shoulders.

Vast Unsettled Canadian Prairies.

The quantity of land open for settle
ment in Northwest Canada cannot
be understood by any one who has not
travelled over those prairies day after
day, week after week, and seen their SUP
set in level prairies and rise in Level
prairies morning after morning with
out change and still without same,
ness. From where the 500 Road
crosses the international boundary al
Portal, N. D., to its junction with the
Canadian Pacific, and on the north by
the latter's branch to Prince Albert, a
distance of more than 500 miles al
most directly north, there are scarcely
any inhabitants except along the
main line, chiefly at and near Indian
Head and Regina and at points be.
tween. Further west on the branch
to Edmonton the same condition pre-
walls. A few miles back from the
railroad almost absolute stiffness pre-
walls, and the land is practically ten
antless. It is the same soil as that
which at Indian Head produces thirty
bushels of wheat to the acre and it
can be bought for song.-New York

Japan and the European Situation

From the Far East trustworthy in
formation reaches me which shows
that Japan believes her opportunity is
coming. Should Russia move, she
will find Japan at her throat. Russia,
therefore, with her internal troubles
of famine, poverty and widespread
corruption, is naturally unwilling to
pull hot chestnuts out of the Egyptian
fire for the sake of France. Without
Russia, Austria, Abyssinia, or her
Dervish friends, France will have to
face the English music single handed;
and as the Foreign Ministers of France,
who fit through the palace on the
Quai d'Orsay as transient figures in q
biograph, do not seem to believe Eng
lands word, it is possible that they
will be more reasonable after being
confronted with the spectacle of Eng
lands sword. There is, as I have
limited, great deal under the surface
which is not publicly known. The
Egyptian authorities have in their
possession letter from French Of
ficer to the Khalifa, together with two
French flags sent to the leader of the
Dervishes. The messenger who con-
veyed these interesting mementos of
the emissaries of civilization is also
in the hands of the Egyptian Govern
ment. 1t is to be presumed that our
rulers are Withholding the publication
of these facts, for diplomatic reasons,
but they are true. If I were able to
give my authority for stating them,
the civilized world would wonder. 1t
is not the opinion of ministers that
there will be war this year, but the
question of peace or war rests in the
hands of French or Spanish politicians
whose record of levity in the conduct
of foreign affairs is not encouraging
for peace.-London Letter, in Har-
per's Weekly.

We're Married by Photograph.

Marriage by photograph was the
new scheme hit upon by would-bs
benedict in Barclay, northern Mani
toba, a place visited by clergyman
only once in every four years. The
bride was willing, the groom was watt
ing, and everything was in readiness
for the happy event; but the clergy
man had paid his periodical visit only
six months before, and three years
and a half must elapse before he
would visit the hamlet again.
Then the clever bridegroom raked
his brains, and decided on a course OF
action. He had heard of the wonders
of the photograph aud rode to Winni-
peg to secure one. Taking it to the
nearest justice of the peace, he in
duced him to speak the marriage SER
vice into the monographs receiver,
and fastened home with his precious
burden. In short time invitations
were out for the wedding of John
Barclay, Jr. (the town was named after
his father, with Miss Lillian Armi.
tage, the lady of his choice. Before
long invitations were out for the we'd
ding of second couple, Miss Edna
Claverton and Harry Pringle, who had
decided to be married at the same
time.
At the appointed time the first
couple stood before the photograph,
which put the usual questions, and re-
ceived the usual answers. Then Miss
Claverton and Mr.. Pringle stood up
and went through the same ordeal.
At the conclusion of this first double
wedding by photograph the event was
celebrated with feasting worthy of the
event. New York Press.

great many more stars and ribbons
than could be display ed on any bosom,
however capacious, but he is a long

such vanities. he thus beats Bis

An ImnnSsihle Pledge.

Nearly all great scientific discoveries
have been combated and misunder-
stood, even by great men. Admiral
Sir Charles Napier fercely opposed
the introduction of steam power into
the royal navy, and one day exclaimed
in the House of Commons: "Mr.
Speaker, when we enter Her Majesty's
naval service and face the
chances of war we go prepared to be
hacked in pieces by cutlasses, to be
riddled with bullets or to be blown to
bits by shot and shell; but, Mr..
Speaker, we do not go prepared to be
boiled alivel" The last words he
brought out with tremendous
emphasis. Steam power in men-of-
war with boilers which at any moment
might be shattered by an enemy's sh OF
this was prospect the gallant sailor
could not face. Yet in few years
Sir Charles Napier found himself in
command of the largest steam navy
that the world had ever seen. Lord
Stanley subsequently the great Lord
Derby presided over a select COM
mittee of the House of Commons to
examine into the state of steam navi
CATION George Stephenson, the
eminent engineer, who was examined,
spoke of ths probability of steamships
crossing the Atlantic. "Good heavensl
what do you say?" exclaimed Lord
Stanley, rising from his seat. III
steamships cross the Atlantic will
eat the boiler of the first boat" That

''But what's the matter?' asked the
husband with concern. "What has
happened?"
"Well, I'm telling you just as fast
as can. This afternoon when the
doorbell rang I was in the hall and
answered the door myself, for l saw q
boy there. On opening the door the
boy said to me: Please, can Mike
come out and play ball?' I told him
that we had no Mike here, and said
that he had called at the wrong house.

him Harold, he said.
