Ing every finger a marine spike and every

eyes, is good sailor
To toe the line or toe pitch" Is to
keep straight. Caught aback'' is to be
suddenly surprised. When anything takes
charge 1t Is supposed to be out of hand.
"Slippy' is to be quick, while ship shape
and Bristol fashion implies that a thing
is to be done in good style. To do a thing
handsomely is to exhibit smartness In Its
performance.
When Jack wants a rest he says he will
take Spell it may be on deck or be-
low.
After a more than ordinarily hearty meal
Jack will ''let out a reef in his belt and
eXclaim that he is "chock-a-block." To be
compelled to live on daily allowance of a

bare rations allowed by the service. To be

"Our principal industry in New South

Interesting Examples of the Language

Interesting Examples of the Language
Used by Jack Tar.
From the London Express
The Handy Man has a ready wit and
a perfect genius for inventing slang terms.
Here are a few examples:
When a person meets with a rebuff Jack
exclaims that he has received "a slap over
the bows" or that The has been brought
up with a round turn To be pulled up
suddenly for any offense is to be brought
up all standing" To be "planked' is to
be charged on the quarter deck before one
OF the ships officers
A talkative man is described as one who
is always "chawing his own fat" When a
man is hopelessly drunk he is said to have
his back teeth awash." Semi-drunken-
ness is described as being three sheets in
the wind or "half-seas over" A man of
"kink' in his mind. Acute hunger is lik-
ened to ones belly Tapping against ones
backbone"
When Jack resorts to personalities he
does not believe in half-measures. A stupid
person is called the two ends and the
blight Of fool" For the non-nautical
reader it may be mentioned that the blight
of rope includes. that part between the
at. "kiddy fellow is one who Is natty in
appearance.
A man who is pale must not feel hurt If
he is told that he has "a face like a
scrubbed hammock" while an unpopular
member Of the crew Is not infrequently
called a ''swab." Not to like the cut Of
his jib" is another term Of disapproval.
The expressions "sea lawyer and Sky
pilot" are too well known to need explana-
ton here. To be told that you are IAN old
soldier but young sailor does not imply
a compliment. The reverse. however, Is
the case when you describe a man as hav-

democratic leader. They had planned

Mr. Bryan begged the local committee not
to say anything about his running away

STEER TURNED THE TABLES.
Was Not a Complete Success In
Spanish Bull Ring.

w.. Not a Complete Success in a
Spanish Bull Ring.
From the Chicago Chronicle.
A resident of Des Moines, Iowa, was a
witness to a Spanish bull fight at Seville
Spain. a few years ago. at which one OF the
animals in the amphitheater was Iexas
steer. A steer, he says, will never attack
a horse or man on horseback. A man on
font he may kill, but a man on horseback
he will not modest He also does not shut
his ewes when he charges. while Dull
takes his line and then shuts his eyes and
charges never deviating from the line his
sieht gave him before he closed his orbs.
Tiis if is that enables the toreador to step
so easily out of the way. for the bull, not
seeing him. makes no attempt to reach the
man when he has moved from the spot he
occupied when the bull charged.
1.-The only trial Of the Texas steer, con-
tinued the Iowan, was pulled off at Sc
VILE. and while they intended potting seven,
the first one they let loose gave them all
thew wanted and quickly brought that ex-
periment to an inglorous finish. After the
steer had cavorted around the ring for
while they turned a horse loose. The steer
maid no attention to him, but the horse,
fearful of the unknown beast, would not
advance. In came a helper with sharp
stick, and the steer, positively believing Tor
low started, as the crowd supposed, for the
horse BY him the steer went in pursuit OF
bigger game, and the helper shortly cleared
the protective fence, with ten feet to spare,
owing to the steers able assistance. The
representative of the Texas cattle trade
went over that six-foot barrier as though
It was a prairie dog mound of his native
plains but the helper won out to one of
the protective boxes and safety.
.The steer did his best to get at him. but
finding it Impossible, looked about for other
game with which to sport. The stone seats
are ten feet above the ground, and this has
always been an insurmountable barrier for
a bull. but they reckoned without their
Texas steer when they built them, for as
| soon as the steers eyes lit on the throng
| above his head he stepped back, and the
next instant he was among them. Before
| the people could escape he had tossed hall
| a dozen into the ring, but they were all
| rescued by the ring attendants. The stone
| seats cleared, the steer returned to the
| ring. and, seeing no one else to throw the
| gage of battle to, took the exact center Of
| the ring and beloved his defiance to the
| universe In the meantime the manage
| ment had been busy. and soldier with 6
| Mauser rifle had been summoned from 6
| nearby barrack. With the box rail as 6
| rest. he took steady aim, and with the pint
| of the bullet the steers life ended, but tn,

He was apparently an old man, wore large

Across the satchel was labeled, Prof. Redd,

a suburban station and deposited the satch-

the sharp tinkle of breaking glass. The old
