WHY THE SAILORS WENT DRY.

Louis, an old sea dog from Australia,
Baffin's bay to No Mans Land, enjoys
comparing his present position in the
American marine service to that he
once occupied when sailing in an East
Indianman from Liverpool to Calcutta,
says the New York Sun. The vessel
had been becalmed and the water sup
ply ran short during a terrible hot
spell. The crew had to exist on moldy
sea biscuits, while the captain a big
bully of an Englishman, lived in lux
ury. The crew did not object to this
until one day, when every man was
almost Frustrated by the heat and
lack of sufficient water, they discov
cred that the captain, knowing the
sufferings of the men, had been taking
baths daily in fresh water in his cabin.
Almost an open mutiny broke out,
and a squad of the tars, headed by
Louis, was sent aft to see the captain
about getting some more drinking
water.
He told the captain frankly that
they knew of his taking baths daily
in his cabin in fresh water, and that
every instinct Of humanity dictated
that he should forego his fresh water
baths until he reached port and give
the crew the water which he would
otherwise have used for his additions.
The captain became ivid with rage
at the ''audacity" of the men.
'What!" ne shouted, 'You bloom
ing lubbers want to take away from
me my mornin' tub! Not We, say [
I cawn't, do without me tub, SO cawn't
We know. Do ye think can give We
all the drinkin' water We want? Not
me, says [. Get tell out o'here.
That evening he gave each man an
extra half pint of water, but he had
a fresh water bath each moning new

BLLSTERED BY WATER.

To learn just how much pain would
be caused by the constant dripping
of water on the body, several stud
ents at Wichita, Kan, have ascertain
ed by experiment.
A gallon of water was to be loos-
ened, drop by drop, from a height OF
three feet, the drops falling at inter-
walls of about two seconds. A gallon
of water contains about 81, 444 drops,
and at this rate it would take over 81
hours to complete the task.
One of the students was seated at
be fixed immovably to the table, SO as
to insure every drop striking the same
spot on the back of the hand. The
apparatus for dropping the water
adjusted and the experiments began.
For the first As minutes he experienced
no inconvenience, save his hand be-
coming uncomfortable from being
wet constantly with the water. Ar
rangements were then made to keep
the water at blood heat, and it soon
became more comfortable. In about
two hours slight redness began to
appear, which gradually got as big as
a quarter.
The third half hour the drops were
scarcely felt at all, the hand being
apparently numb to the water, al
though sensitive to the touch of any
thing else. The red spot increased
until it was larger than silver half
dollar, and the dropping of the water
began to become slightly painful.
1t was noticed that if anyone told
story or did anything to divert the
students attention from his hand he
did not notice any pain Eat all, but
concentration of thought upon his
hand made the pain grow.
After about six hours and a half the
red spot, which had been bright red,
turned slowly to purple, and blister
began to rise. The pain had increased
gradually up to this stage, and the
young man said he felt as though
every falling drop came with the force
of a hammer, and pain reaching the
shoulder and even a little beyond.
After the blister had raised, the blows
from the drops were not so severe,
but he said they were bad enough,
producing a dull feeling like slowly
pushing down upon it.
After about eight hours and twenty
minutes the water was shut off. About
II, 900 drops had been let fall, the rate
being little above the schedule, only
one quart and two ounces of water
having been used.

MAKING UP FOR LOST TIME.

A writer in the Des Moines (Ia.)
ago when the late Ezekiel Clarke was
a member of the state senate from
Johnson county. 1t is we'll known
that the senator or member from
Johnson county is always expected
to get a large appropriation for the
state university. To fail would be
political death. Senator Clarke was
anxious to succeed, and during the
early part of the session voted for
everything. Ii another senator had
a bill all he had to do was to go and
whisper in EZekiel's ear aud he would
vote aye. One day, however, Ezekiel
came into the senate with hair cut
and a clean shave. He sat upright in
his seat and began to slaughter right
and left. State Senator George F.
Wright looked across to where the
senator from Johnson was sitting and
inquired what change had come over
the senator from Johnson county.
The other senator replied that the
appropriation bill for the senate I'M
iversity had now passed both houses,
and the senator from Johnson was
going to make up for lost time. Clarke
kept on punching heads until the
senator from Jefferson, Moses A. Nc
Cold, rose and solemny introduced
a bill for an act entitled: can act re-
pealing the appropriation for the state
university. A broad smile passed
around the room, and everybody ex-
cept the senator from Johnson saw
the joke. But the spirit of levity
passed away from Senator Clarke, he
at once resumed his humble attitude,
and the other boys voted him as usual
during the remainder of the session.

DEWEY'S MANILA STORY.

1t was at Manila, day or two be-
fore the famous colloquy between Ad-
miral Won Diedrichs and the British
Captain of the cruiser Immo rtalite, in
which the former asked what attitude
| the latter would assume in case trou l.
BILE arose between the Germans and
| the Americans, Chichester replying
that information on that point could
best be obtained from Dewey. On
this occasion Dewey was dining with
Chicheter, and over the nuts and
wine they got to swapping stories
The host expressed his admiration of
the confidence of victory expressed
by the Yankee sailors, and his guest
replied that there might be too much
confidence in ones ability to win
fight. The Englishman did not see
how that could be, and Dewey pro-
ceeded to illustrate his remark with
a little anecdote. SAID he: can old
friend of my grandfather's up in YER
mont, lent some help to his country's
cause in the war of 1912 by fitting out
a fine privateer. He took co mmand
of her himself, having had some ex-
perience in sailoring, and called her
the New Jerusalem. She was a smart
little barkentine, and mounted six r.
Founders and 16-pound pivot gun
forward. In the course of the first
voyage she took two or three prizes
of no great value, and two months or
so elapsed before she got Whack at
something really worth capturing.
'It was on foggy morning, in the
region of the tropics, the wind hav-
ing died down to mere catspaw, that
she sighted the royal and gallant
stunsails of huge merchantmen car
rying the British flag. It was a spec
tacle to make any piratical PERSONS
month water. The privateer, being
to windward, crept up to it's prey,
herself unobserved in the mist, and
presently hove to within half cable s
length of her.
'sHeave to, Or I'll sink you," yelled
my grandfather's friend, thinking
gloatingly of the silks and laces, with
who knows what other spoil, he was
going to take back to Vermont.
"There was no reply, and just then
a puff of wind blew away some of the
fog, revealing instead Of a merchant
man, full fedged line of battle ships
with rows of frowning ports.
Il was about to say shouted the
commander of the privateer, that
while inviting you to surrender, in
case you don't want to I will
&C He did," said Dewey, (which will
serve to illustrate my meaning when
[ say that too much confidence in
warfare is not always a good thing.
Your very good health, Chichester"

A correspondent of The Rural Ne1U
Yorker inquiries of that paper in regard
to the proper treatment for a young
apple orchard set four to six years
ago. The reply by II. E. Van Deman
may be of interest to many who have
orchards in like conition. A six-year-
old apple orchard ought to be in fair
condition for seeding to clover. If it
has been we'll titled, the trees should
be of large size and in healthy cond
ition. The four year trees are
barely big enough to cease to cultivate.
If the clover be sown about September
1, or earlier if the weather be not hot
and the soil dry, it would get a good
start by winter. I would advise the
sowing of plenty of seed, not less
than 25 pounds per acre, SO as to get
a good stand at the start. A very
light seeding, perhaps half bushel
per acre of buckwheat, would help to
hold the soil from washing, as the
frost would kill it, and the tops would
lie upon the ground all winter. They
would also prevent freezing out of
the little clover plants to some extent.
