Illuminated Buoys.

Another form of beacon for mariners
of smaller dimensions, but hardly less
important, is the illuminated buoy.
These floating lamp holders, placed in
an estuary where the available channel
is often only a narrow one, bounded by
mud or sand banks only few feet below
the surface of the water, are Invaluable
to shipping, Hitherto the illuminant
chiefly employed has been compressed
gas, necessitating n high pressure reser-
voir and COMPRISING machinery.
Mr.. Wigham, whose name has long
been known in connection with light
house apparatus, has introduced a min
eral oil lamp which can be fitted to
any existing buoy and will burn for
long period at very small cost. The
maintenance of one form of lamp can
be kept up at cost of one penny for "a
hours, and as no COMPRISING machinery
is required this is the only expense
plus the original cost of the lamp. The
approach to port-such as that of Liv-
erpool for instance, where a ship has
to enter through long avenue of buoys
could by this invention be almost as
well lighted as a city street. Cham

A Phillips Brooks Apecdote.

At the dinner given in his honor in
Philadelphia DIR. McVickar, the bishop
coadjutor of Rhode Island, told this
characteristic anecdote of the late Phil
lips Brooks: 81 remember few years
ago was travelling with one of the
grandest bishops and one of the grand
est men of the century. was saunter-
ing with him from church in Lucerne,
in Switzerland, and he said something
SO boyish and fresh, just as he was ever
wont to do. i stopped and looked at him
and said, Brooks, it seems SO strange
that you should be a bishop He looked
at me with almost a startled expression,
and he said, 'McVickar. it seems SO
strange to me that sometimes, when I
am putting on my clothes, / have to
stop and laugh. It was just the fresh
ness of that man which always kept
him young. and which. L am sure, you
will understand as give it, for ven-
ture to say there has never been such a
bishop in our or any other church. %

The Initiative Japanese.

A good story is told by st. Barbe of
tho lmitativeness of the Japanese, which
is easily credible, for was it not Jap
anese who when he was told to make n
coat to pattern-the old one being sent
so faithfully did he carry out the or
der that rent and darn in one of the
tails was carefully executed in the new
garment?
''At a certain reception we were ask
ed in morning dress. but knowing peo-
pie wore their crush theater hats. When
we got down to the gunroom, which
was devoted to gentlemen's cloaks, the
gentleman Immediately before me took
off his theater hat, crushed it against his
breastbone, wrapped it up in his dust
cloak and handed it to the japanese in
charge.
81 took off my hat and dust cloak and
handed them. To my horror the Jap
took hold of my hat by the brim and
crushed it against his breastbone as he
had seen my predecessor do. Unfortu-
nately that gentleman hat would not
work at first, and he had to use great
deal of force before the springs would
fold down. The japanese therefore saw
nothing in my hats unwillingness to
work, but just crushed it and folded my
cloak round it.

presented me with a paper fower-I
suppose as peace Offering"

Meanwhile the man was changing his
hold on the strap from one hand to the
other. He looked down, with his eyes
half closed, and when some of the pas
seugers wanted TO leave the car he SEEM
ed to pay no attention to them, for he
did not move out of their way. AT the
Larimer avenue bridge the car came to
a stop. The man seemed to realize that
he was at his destination, for while he
had not motioned to the conductor he
began to go toward the door. The con-
ductor helped him out and after seeing
him safely ON the sidewalk returned TO
his car. Turning to a passenger who
had been an interested spectator, he
said: Isn't it pity to be blind? That

Nothing could more strikingly illus

Of some of the most serious and wide
spread diseases to which the human race
is subject. 1t is truly said that what

many tropical countries and what
throws the greatest obstacle in the way
of civilization of and good government
in vast regions of central Africa is not
climate, not distance from home and
not unfriendliness on the part of the
natives. The obstacle is malaria, and
now we find that the prevalence of ma
laria, so far as man is concerned, &c

pestilent little insect, in addition to ir-

which the poison of malaria is propa-

For years back botanists have known
the Important part played by birds in
the scattering of seed and of insects in

The wolves Jus. Laughed.

Sitting IN Thede Wyman's store, a
little group of villagers in Sebec, Ne,
talked of wolves. now seldom seen in
Maine, but which half a century ago
were much in evidence. William Lyford
told the story of Seth Browns chase Of
two wolves ON snowshoes.
''You know Seth,'' he said. Zone of

day that ever cut timber trees or drove
the Penobscot. Up in the Ripogenus re-
gion one February he was out prospect
ing for timber tracts. The snow was
deep, with a light crust, Just strong
enough to hold up man on snowshoes.
Coming upon little rise of land in q
timber swamp one day, he saw two
wolves little way ahead of him. Tho
crust would not bear them. and they
could only wallow along in the snow.
Seth would tackle anything that ever
ranged the woods. He had no gun, but
he set out after the wolves with his AK.
What did those wolves do but circle
round until they got back upon Seth s
tracks. You know how i'll light snow

got to Seth S tracks the slotes (snowshoo
prints) held them up, and they Just ran
on them in circle till he gave up the
chase. He was SO near that he could al
most have thrown his AK to them, and
he couldn't get a step nearer. Seth said
the wolves sat ON their launches and
laughed at him when he had to give up
and start along. New York Sun.

Those who have accepted the incon-

corruption of Welsh ''rarebit' will
have to revise their view. According TO

Welsh rabbit is genuine slang term

scribe in the same humorous way the

The greatest heat probably on record
was registered in the valley of the
Midway on July %, 1865, when the
thermometer at Tonbridge stood in the
shade at 1909 degrees T. Eleven years
later, in December, 1879, 90 degrees Of
frost were recorded at Blackadder, in

NOT AFRAID OF MAN.
Remarkable Tamcness of Animals In
the Yellowstone Park.

the Yellowstone Park.
The slaughter of birds has almost en-
tiIely removed one of the delightful ac-
compartments OF life in the rural east
the music of the feathered songsters.
Apropos of this, it may be said that one
of the most pleasant features of the drive
through the Yellowstone National park
is the apparent intimacy between man
and the animal and bird life in the
park. Thanks to the wise and stringent
regulations, no shooting is allowed with
in its boundaries.
1.-The result, says an English tour
list, sis positively charming. Hundreds
of little chipn snks, with their gaudy
striped backs, Ecampered impudently
about or peered at the passing coach
from the roadside. The squirrel did not
bolt for the nearest tree, but nodded
welcome. All bird life treated rs like
wise. Even the lordly eagle lowered
near, and the wild turkey stalked I'M
cOncernedly through the rank grass. We
were fortunate enough TO see a fine
specimen of the wolf tribe. He stood,
beautiful creature, and watched us out
of sight, showing only curiosity, not
fear. Another time were perceived doe
and fawn grazing by the road. Not un-
til we were within few feet did they
seek the shelter of the woods, yet not
to fly. They simply moved aside. Here
at least mankind was regarded as q
friend-one who could be trusted. The
only animal who ran away was brown
bear. He turned tail at the sight of a
coaching party, yet it was quite COM
mon thing for bears to approach close
to the hotels at evening to feed on the
refuse thrown out 1t was an after din
ner relaxation for the guests to watch
them feeding. They munched and dis
puted the choicest morsels, for the most
part Indifferent to the company. Only
when we became inQuisitive and ap-
preached too near did they retire, and
these animals were perfectly free and
unfettered in their movements. 1t may
read like fairy tale, but it is solid
fact. Troy Times.
