Experiments with Copper on Tug
 Prove SuccessfuL


 Prove Successful.
 According toa report on the condition of the bottom of the tug Assistance of the navy department, the eleetroplating of iron hulls with copper appears to be a success. The Assistance was electro plated with copper to a depth of one- thifty-seeond of an inch before it was launched in 1895, and when it was talk en out of the water at the Norfolk navy yard a few days ago it was found that practically no electrolysis had set in and that the bottom was about clear of barnacles and other marine growths. At no time since it was launched has the Assistance been docked or cleaned. During the four years it received a number of hard knocks and was on the rocks several times. It was found necessary to patch over certain weak spots as the result of these accidents, and it was only in the vicinity of these patches that any galvanie action was found. Owing to iJs clean bottom, the speed of the Assistance has not di- unfinished, while all the other tugs in use in Chesapeake bay have been taken out for scraping about once month. Experience shows that three months of service in salt water reduces the speed of 8 vessel about 2S per cent. so the advantage of this copper eleetroplating is at once apparent. The cost of the plating is about s a square foot The saving in docking would be enormous, as the expense of docking 9 vessel is betWeen $3.000 and $4,Q00

How the Fnlpinos Bury Their Dead.

Manila correspondent of an Amer ican newspaper says that the Filipinos do not bury their dead under ground but in tiers of masonry. In Manila Paco cemetery is the most important place of burial. The high walls of masonry in which are the long vaults, each the size for one body. are built in circles, one within the other, with a walk between. As the coffin is thrust in the vault the mourners rend the air with their walls, but they stand by quietly while it is sealed with bricks and mortar; when the final ereyiee had been filled they quietly disperse These vaults are hired, not bought, of the church, and when the rent is not forthcoming the body is torn out, nc matter in what state of preservation, and the vault rented to some one else who can afford to pay. The bones thus desecrated are thrown in heap in place prepared for the purpose, where there is large and gruesome collec- ton.

klna Humbert.s srnoklng.

Klng Humbert of Italy has but few qualities in common with his father, King Victor Emmanuel, one of the few being his intense love of smoking. Temperate to the verge of asceticism, in all his other enjoyments. the king had developed his propensity for strong cigars to such a pitch that his nervous system was completely shattered, Ae began to be affected with asthma, and his general health was undermined. 1here was nothing for it but to abstain from the use of tobacco and few years ago the court physician advised the monarch to this effect, but without any very great hopes that his royal pa tient would act upon his advice. But King Humhert at once declared: Prom this day 1 will not smoke another cigar!" And he has kept his promise to the letter. The state of his health has greatly improved in consequence.

It seems that his holiness Leo XIII. in the matter of eating and drinking Is most frugal. A correspondent at the vatican states that the pope's break fast consists of cup of goats milk with a dash of coffee in it. At his din- ner he consumes a basin of broth and one plate of roast or boiled meat, fol- lowed by an orange-the latter at all seasons of the year. For supper he takes basin of broth and boiled egg.

CARBONDALE.
w. r. JOHNSON DISCHARGED.

william r.. johnson, the well-known
Master mechanic of the locomotive
shops of the Delaware and Hudson
company in this city, was on Monday
last notified that he will not be needed
after August 80. Naturally Mr.. John-
son asked the reason for his DISMISSAL
but he was told that the company
had decided to make a change. The
announcement will come as great
surprise to all who know him, as ne
Is considered one of the most Capa-
BILE mechanics in this section of the
country.
Mr.. Johnson's connection with the
Delaware and Hudson company dates
back to September, 1915, at which time
he entered the Office of Mr.. Pierce
Butler as office boy. In the year lSSO
he qualified as a maChinst ana since
that tine his progress was so marked
that he was transferred to the loco
motive shops, and in 1888 was pro-
NOTED to the position of foreman. In
July, 1898. Mr.. johnson was again pro-
noted this time to the responsive
position of master mechanic. The ar
fair is shrouded in mystery and among
the men who worked under Mr.. john
son there is a bitter feeling caused
bv the treatment he has received. An
official of the company states that Mr..
johnson resigned. The latter person
told The Tribune correspondent that
he was discharged. Rumor has it that
there are others who will get the
blue" envelope.

which We're uncomfortably crowded,
left the depot at . o'clock in the morn

dulged in, among which was base
ball match between George Cudlip's

men over forty years of age and one
or two of the players were over sixty.
The game proved n great attraction
and to mention all the excellent points
would require fully a column of space.
Some of the features of the game, how
ever, were the excellent work of Catch
er Wheeler, the base running of c. l..
Bell, all around playing of William
lake, c. L. Bell and Thomas Evans.
The teams lined up as follows: Old
