A G
How the Art OF Printing from Stone
Was Discovered.

One Of the greatest discoveries ever
made was the result of pure accident.
1t was in the year 1896. The citizens
of Munich had just witnessed the first
performance of MoZart's opera, Don
JUAN The theater was deserted by
all except one man, Alois Sennefelder,
who, after making a round of inspec-
ton in the building to see that there
was no danger of fire, went to his room
to stamp the tickets Of admission for
the following day. When he entered
his room he had three things in his
hand-a polished milestone, which he
had bought for sharpening his razor; a
ticket-stamp, still moistened with
printing ink, and a check on the treas
urer of the theater for his weekly
salary. AS he placed the latter on
the table a gust of wind swept it high
up in his room, and then deposited it
in a basin of water. Sennefelder dried
the paper as we'll as he could, and
then weighted it down with the whet-
stone, upon which he had carelessly
placed the printing stamp. When he
returned to his room the following
morning, he was ~astonished at seeing
the letters printed upon the dampen.
ed paper. A thought came to him. He
wondered whether by some such means
he could not simplify his work of con-
tinually copying the songs of the
chorus. He went out and purchased a
large stone, commenced making ex-
periments, and, as WI all know, final
ly discovered the art of printing from
stone-lithography.

MaCauIny'S Appalling Memo rleS.

The late Henry Reeve, for many
years leader writer of the London
Times, was dining one night at a house
where the other guests included Ma
caulay and Sydney Smith. Macaulay
was at the time laying society waste
with his waterspouts of talk. At length,
dinner being over, Sydney Smith,
Reeve and a few others went away by
themselves and Immediately got on the
o~verpowering subject of Macaulay. "He
confounds soliloquy and colloQuy,"
said Reeve. HE is a book in breech-
es!" Smith declared. "The very worst
feature in Macaulay's character is his
appalling memory" said Reeve. AYE,
indeed said Sydney Smith; "why, ne
could repeat the whole History of the
Virtuous Blue-Coat Boy in three vol
umes, post Svo. without a slip" After
a pause, as if Of consideration, the
witty divine added: "He should take

The Assumption of Scientists.

Canon Maccoll, a distinguished Eng
lish churchman and the friend Of Mr..
Gladstone, is thus quoted in the Lon
don Times: A friend Of the canon's
once shared the box-seat with the
driver of a ~stage-coach in Yorkshire,
and being the lover of horses, talked
with the coachman about his team.
One horse in particular he admired.

scientific 'oss." "a scientific horse!!"
exclaimed the canon's friend. What

On the morning Of November IA, 1888,
a messenger came to Capt. Leary from
Mataafa with the information that the
German warship was, in the dawn of
the following day, going to lombard a
stronghold which Mataafa had estab-
llshed on land under American protec-
ton.
That night Capt. I.eary quietly got
steam up without attracting the Ger
mans attention., and had his anchor
chains mutaed. All hands were called
to quarters before dawn. At daybreak
the Adler's anchors came up, and she
made for the threatened fort. Silently
the anchors OF the Adams came up
also. and to the amazement Of the
German the Yankee craft put after
him with a full head Of steam and
darted in between him and the shore.
Capt. Leary cleared his ship for ac-
ton and the German followed suit.
\ shot from either ship would now
have precipitated war between the
two nations. When opposite the
threatened fort the German dropped
his anchors, and the Yankee did like
wise, taking care to get between the
Adler and the shore. Capt, Leary
then sent this note to the German cap
tain:
Il have the honor to inform you that,
having received information that AM
erican property in the Latogo vicinity
Of Laulii, Lotoanun and Solo Solo is
liable to be invaded this day, l am
here for the purpose of protecting the
same"
The crews of the two ships stood at
their guns Tor hours, but the German
captain made no attempt to fire upon
the fort. Finally he started on a
cruise down the coast, but Capt. L.eary
followed him and would not be shaken
Off. The two ships came at length
into harbor again. and the American
had gained his point of preventing
the German from firing upon the fort.
Capt. Leary upheld the honor Of his
country's flag at a time when our gov
eminent seemed to take but a half
hearted interest in Samoan affairs. He
was far from cable communication, and
on his Own responsibility thus bravely
detied and held in check a warship far
superior to his own.

GOVERNOR OF GUAM.
POST WHICH CAPTAIN LEARY
WILL OCCUPY,
Ills New Duties at Guam - CAPTAIN
Leary's Naval Career Dates Back
Forty Years-His Experience in Samoa
and Elsewhere.

Captain Richard P. Leary. United
States navy, who was recently appoint
ed by President Mckinley governor OF
the island Of Guam, in the L.adrone
sroup, is about to start for his Pacific
island post in the auxiliary cruiser
Yosemite,
Guam is the principal island Of the
Ladrones, which were formerly under
the general government Of the Philip
pines. There is but one town in all
the Ladrones, San Ignacio de .Agaua,
and that is situated at Guam. The
population of the Ladrones only
amounts to about ten thousand souls.
1t consists Of descendants from the
original inhabitants, called by the
Spaniards Chammorros; of Tagal set
tiers from the Philippines. and of a
mixed race formed by the union of
Spaniards and Chammorros.
In 1888 Captain Leary was placed in
command of the Adams at Samoa dur
ing those troublous times, and per-
formed a deed there that deserves to
' Ill AiSlolS.
There We're two foreign warships at
the time in Samoan waters-the Adler.
a German vessel, and the Adams. a
small and obsolete man-of-war, com
manded by Capt. Leary, then bearing
the rank of commander.
The two captains had several inter-
changes Of courtesy. On one occasion
the Adler steamed past the American
ship, and at her foremost was a native
chief, bound with stout cord 10 the
mast. The German saluted as he
passed, but no answer came back from
the American ship. Soon the German
came to a standstill and a boat was
dispatched to ascertain why the Amer
lean had not answered the salute. Up
on this Capt. Leary sent back to the
Teuton this characteristic reply: The
United States does not salute vessels
engaged in the slave carrying trade"
Soon afterward Capt. Leary again
had occasion to pay his respects to the
captain Of the Adler. While the war
was raging between Tamasese and Ma
taafa the German captain made his
war vessel a sort of tow boat for Ia
masese'S wal canoes, and trained his
guns upon villages occupied only bv
women and children. Many villages
were entirely destroyed. Capt. Leary
sent this just as incisive remonstrance
to the Adler's captain: "Such action,
especially after the Tamasese party
had been represented as a strong gov
eminent not needing the armed sup
port of a foreign power, appears to be
a violation of the principals Of inter-
national law. as we'll as a violation
Of the generally recognized laws of
humanity.'
Still another vigorous protest was
sent later when the crew of the Adler
fired upon a canoe filled with unarmed
natives. But Capt. Leary did more
than protest; he performed a gallant
action, which has been but little COM
mented upon, and which has never re-
ceived the recognition that it deserves.

left Saturday night. Dominick went
in and pitched good, conscientious
ball during five innings. The sup
port was bad however and while
there were hits made of his delivery
there were a whole lot of runs
which can be credited to nothing
else but bad errors and bad pla ying.
One double play could have been
made with ease that would
have shut out three of the runs and
there was another stupid throw
OF ball to third when two we're out
and the batter had two strikes
against him. The Little Falls bat
terry is strong. Young Ferrel throws
a good article of ball and Bourassa
catches and throws TO bases we'll.
The support is good throughout,
some seemingly impossible flies being
pulled down in the outfeld and very
few errors being charged to the infield.
Sullivan Brown umpired and gave
general satisfaction. One decision
late in the game, while it cut no
figure with the score, was very bad
however Murray struck out, the
catcher failed to hold the ball and
it caromed off to the backstop
territory. An accommodating Little
Falls man ran and got it, threw it
to the catcher and that functionary
relayed it down to first in time to
catch Murray: who had watched the
play as he galloped down. The um-
pire called the runner out when it
was clearly a case OF a blocked ball.
