VESSELS
COLLIDED

The fishing schooner Mary. which
arrived recently from Cape Flattery.
had an adventure which her crew are
not likely to forget for many months.
Las; Friday about , o'clock in the
morning. while the schooner was ~
ing at anchor at the fishing grounds.
the sleeping men were awakened by
the vessel receiving a sudden shock
which nearly sent her on her beam
ends.
The haif-dressei men rushed on
deck and found that the schooner
had been struck by large British
ship Of about 1000 tons. which had
come bowling along under easy sail.
II happened that the little craft had
been lying directly In the track Of
the big wind TANNER. and obscured
to the view of the steersman. The
ship struck the schooner a gianclng
blow on the starboard bow. breaking
the bowsprit and carrying away the
fore rigging Fortunately no leaks
were spranR. Had the big vessel
been going ut a swifter rate OF
speed under a fair wind. she would
undoubtedly have sent the schooner
to the bottom Of the ocean. with all
on board.

ABOUT sMOKELEss POWDER.
Costs More Per Pound, But Not More
Expensive Than Ordinary Powder.

Costs More Per Pound, But Not More
Expensive Than Ordinary Powder
One of the secrets of the ordnance de-
partment of the government is in regard
to smokeless powder, the various receipts
for its manufacture and the most effective
ways of using 1t. For it must be known
that there are various kinds of smoke
less powder each possessing its own su-
periority for developing pressure or veloc-
ity. One kind of smokeless powder comes
in yellow strips about ten inches long. It
has no smell and looks as innocent as so
much brown paper. This kind is best for
the siX-pounders. Then there is a kind
that comes in small white grains, like so
much rice. There is also smokeless pow
der in small, perforated discs, yellow or
brown and, finally, there is a kind known
as cordite, in reddish-brown strings, some
of them about a foot long, like shoelaces.
This is used chiefly in the one-pounders.
All kinds of smokeless powder are load
ed into shells and put into the guns like
revolver cartridges, but a present smoke
less powder is used only in guns having
a caliber of six inches or less. 1t is prob
able, however, that in the future It will
be used in guns of all sizes, its advantage
in action being very great.
Although smokeless powder costs more
per pound than ordinary brown powder, it
is not really more expensive, since its ef-
ficiency is so much greater. In an eight
inch gun, for instance, there is required
for one discharge from liz to 125 pounds
of brown powder, but the same pressure
and velocity will be impaired to the $50
pound projectile by only sixty pounds of
smokeless powder. And in the matter of
safety, the smokeless powder seems to
have advantages over the ordinary kind.
The only question still to be solved, and
the recent war points TO a favorable solu-
ton, is whether smokeless powder will
keep all its good qualities and effective
ness in the face of sudden changes from
heat to cold, or vice versa.

CHESTNUT PARTIES.
Here Is a Chance to Tell stale Stories
and Old Jokes.

Here Is n Chance TO IeAl state stories
and Old Jokes.
Chestnut parties are in great vogue in
England just now, and are rapidly win
ming popularity for themselves in this
country. The idea is so simple, yet en-
tertaining, that one of these parties Is
sure to register a success.
An open fire and a circle of friendly folk
to roast the glossy nuts constitute the
necessary elements. Each guest Is in duty
bound for the entertainment of the as
sembled company to tell the stalest story
or recite the most hackneyed verses in 40
fresh and charming a manner as to gain
votes of approval.
The successive places of the narrators
around the fire are determined in the fol-
lowing novel manner.
Upon a table in front of the company
stands a large tray with unroasted chest
nuts upon 1t; from the edge of the tray
hang different colored ribbons, one for
each guest, one hanging down, the other
hidden under the pile of chestnuts. The
hidden ends are numbered in succession,
and each guest draws a ribbon from under
the nuts. the number thereon determining
his or her turn TO recite their particular
chestnut story
The pauses, If any, are filled by music
of the softer kind. Just now the mandolin,
seems 10 be a great favorlte in English
society.
Later and just before supper there is
usually a very lively debate as TO whose
story or poem was the most antique, the
fortunate one receiving some pretty trihe
