What terrors there are in war are not
too great for q mother to share with
her son. Here, for instance, is the story
of one-Alrs- May Stevens Boysen, of
Sacramento, Cal Many a woman tied
down to the drudgery of a dishpsn
and broom viii read it and understand.
New York has had the honor of seeing
Mrs. Boysen IN the play Miss Manhar-
tan" Mrs. Boysen in that production
assumed the part of the nursemaid. She
was the one and only bright spot In
a waste of dreariness-
Chance took Mrs. Boysen on the
stage. Years ago one of the strongest
and most striking characters on the
Pacific slope was Andrew Jackson
| Stevens, master mechanic of the Union
Pacific road. He was the inventor of
| the famous ten-wheel mogul, the type
l of heavy powered engines that drag the
| freight of all the world across the back
bone OF the continent.
| May Stevens was his daughter. A
taste for private theatricals led even
| tually to a place upon the stage Here
she married A. d. Billings, character
actor of years gone by, and some time
after he died she became Mrs. Boysen.
One child-a boy-was the result OF
the first marriage. His name is William
Boysen, for on the marriage of his
mother a second time he took his step
fathers name. Young Boysen is heir
of both his father and grandfather, and
at the beginning of the war was man
agsr of the York Manufacturing com
pany OF York, Pa.
The call for+roops found Boysen will
ing and waiting. He resigned his po-
sition, obtained a commission as as
sistant surgeon with the Pennsylvania
troops, and in August was at work in
the trenches before Manila. The word
of her sons devotion to the flag came
to Mrs Boysen. Without counting upon

the cost, she few post haste to San
Francisco. The next steamer bore her
westward to Manila to her SON. She
was at his side day by day, assuming
the drudgery Of camp life.
1t was Mrs. Boysen's intention to OBJ
tain a place in the government Office in
Manila. She obtained a place as nurse
in the reserve hospital corps.
Then came the outbreak of the in
surgents. Opportunity had come. AS
the Filipinos fell back under the ad-
vance of the Americans, Mrs. Boysen
followed elbow to elbow with our
troops.
From trench to trench went the he
roic woman. Then when the rush OF
the American soldiers went splashing
hot-footed across the paddy fields, in
their train went Mrs. Boysen, minis
tering TO the wounded, working under
fire, and all unconscious of the bullets
singing and purring about her bead.
Once the Filipinos, goaded to despera-
ton by the CALLING fire Of our men
made a rush to recapture the trenches
/ Then for few minutes there was need
for every hand to do its work. Crouchec
in the trench Mrs. Boysen watched the
turn OF affairs, cheering the men along
the line, and wandering here and there
with hands full of cartridges. The1
one of cur men fell back from thu
earthen eHnbanlment, his rifle clatter

An Important Industry.

The Brockton, Mass, Times says that
at the factory of the w. l.. Douglas Shoe
Company in that city the pay roll for the
week ending Sept. 30, excluding superin-
tendent, foremen, statesmen and all cler-
ical help, showed the average earnings
of the employees, large and small to be
$15.54 per week. This was not an ex-
traordinary week. 1t was the customary
pay roll.
The Douglas factory has been closed
but one week this year, and that for the
usual summer stock taking, and il will
be closed but three days the latter part
of December. This would make but nine
days out of the year that the factory is
closed.
Owing to increased business, another
addition is to be made to the Douglas
factory. 1t will be 100 feet long, 40 feet
wide, and five stories high. This addi-
ton increases the capacity % per cent.
The w. l.. Douglas Shoe Company has
the largest factory in the world, produc-
ing an advertised line $3.50 and $500
shoes.

WONDERS OF THE OCEAN.

Ihe temperature of the bottom of
the ocean is nearly down to freezing
point and sometimes actually below
it. There is a total absence of light
as far as sunlight is concerned, and
there is an enormous pressure, reckon
ed at about ton to the square inch
in every thousand fathoms, which is
160 times greater. than that of the
atmosphere we live. in. At $500
fathoms the pressure is thirty times
more powerful than the steam pres
sure of a locomotive when drawing
train. AS late as 1880 leading zool-
ogist explained the existence of deep
sea animals at such depths by assum-
ing that their bodies were composed of
solids and liquids of great density and
contained no air. This, however, is
not the case with deep-sea fish, which
are provided with air-infiated, swim
ming bladders. If one of these fish,
in full chase after its prey, happens
to descend beyond certain level its
bladder becomes distended with the
decreased pressure and carries it in
spite of its efforts still higher in it's
course; in fact, members of this I'M
fortunate class are liable to become
victims to the unusual accident of fall
ing upward and no doubt meet with
violent death soon after leaving their
accustomed level and long before
their bodies reach the surface in a dis
torted and unnatural state. Even
ground sharks, brought up from a
depth of no more than 500 fathoms,
expire before they gain the surface.
The fauna of the deep sea-with a
few exceptions hitherto only know as
fossils-are new and specially modi-
fed forms of families generally inhab-
iting shallow waters in modern times,
and have been driven down to the
depths of the ocean by their more
powerful rivals in the battle of life

much as the ancient Britons were
compelled to withdraw to the barren
and inaccessible Businesses of Wales
Some of their organs have undergone
considerable modification in cor
respondence to the changed conditions
of their new habitats. Thus down to
800 fathoms their eyes have generally
become enlarged, to make the best of
the faint light which may possibly
penetrate there. After 1000 fathoms
these organs are still further en-
larged, or so greatly reduced that in
some species they disappear alto
gether, and are replaced by enormous
ly long feelers. The only light at
great depths which would enable large
eyes to be of any service is the phos
phorescence of deep-sea animals.
We know that at the surface this
light is often very powerful, and Sir
Wyville Thomson has recorded one
occasion on which the sea at night
was "a perfect blaze of phosphores-
cence, so strong that lights and shad-
ows were thrown on the sails, and
it was easy to read the smallest print. F"
1t is thought possible by several
naturalists that certain portions of the
sea bottom may be as brilliantly il
lumined by this sort of light as the
streets of European city after sun
set. Some deep-sea fish have two
parallel rows of small circular phos-
organs running along the
whole length of their bodies, and as
they glide through the dark waters of
the profound abysses they must look
like model mailships, with rows of
shining port holes.-Nineteenth Cen
