RED ROCK cLMGs TO NAME.
Its Sturdy Resolve Not to
Change It.

up in Columbia county" said man:
who spent the summer up the Hudson,
to a New York Sun reporter, sis Red
Rock, small hamlet, 26 miles from
Albany and near East Chatham and
Creechy Lake. Now, Red Rock ism t
much of a place, but there is something
interesting about it that I fancy all
the world doesn't know The pres
ent name is not the one it has always
borne, and what its other name was
l don't know. Whatever it was the
people did not like it, and concluded
they would change it. There was no
particular reason why they should call
it Red Rock, but that was determined
upon, and so Red Rock it became.
Then in the course of time strangers
OF an inquiring turn of mind began
to ask why the place had such name,
and as no reason could be given, new
corners to the neighborhood began to
want a name that meant something.
This insistence grew so strong that the
old residents began to look around for
a reason for the name of their place,
and at last they found huge bowlder
near by which they said was what had
suggested the name. But the bowlder
was gray instead of red and the pro-
gressionists insisted that that would
not do. At last, the old-timers hit
upon new plan, and procuring bar
rel of red paint, they painted the big
rock red. Red Rock, indeed, it was
now, and not only was all opposition
to the name overcome, but the pain tin g
of the rock every spring has become
an annual festival, and the people cele-
brate it with big picnic and general
celebration. It was a new idea to me,
and if there is any other town any
where on earth that is christened every
spring with red paint or any other
color, don't know where it is"

MONUMENT ON A MOUNTAIN.
The Difficulty of Getting Heavy
Stones for the Work to Look
out Mounts Crest

A serious problem confronts the en-
gineers in charge of the erection of
the great New York peace memorial
on the summit of Lookout mountain.
The question is how to get the
material for the monument to the
top of the mountain, 1000 feet above
the surrounding country. The rail
road which has been running to the
top of the mountain as freight line
has been discontinued, and the rails
will be sold for old iron.
It is unsafe even if it were in op-
Grafton, the trestles and cross-ties be-
ing worn and rotten, says the Phila-
delphia Record. The track in it's
present condition will only safely
stand load of 10000 pounds, the
engineers say, while one OF the stones
to be used in the monument will
weigh nearly 10000 pounds, and many
of them $4,000 pounds. There is no
roadway near the spot where the
monument is being erected, it being
high above all the surrounding coun-
try. In case no other means can be
devised to handle the material and
move it to the top a road four miles
in length will be constructed especial
ly for the purpose.

EDUCATED IGNORAMUSES.
Defects in a Good System-Inductive
Method of Teaching Discounts
Drudgery of Memorizing,

Take the old system in it's most mon
strous form-take learning Latin
grammar by heart before translat tin g
any Latin author, says Dean Briggs, of
Harvard university, in the Atlantic.
Nobody now defends a practice so
stupid; yet that wonderful feat of
memory strengthened many memory
for other wonderful feats. The boy
who mastered Andrews and Stoddard
knew the power of patient effort, the
strength of drudgery well done.
Through a natural reaction, memory
is underrated now. Education at the
time when memory@is trained easiest
and best must be saved from the bar
renness of memory work and must be
"enriched." Even the multiplication
table is threatened with banishment.
We leave the straight and narrow way,
and wobble all over the fowery mead
ows. We are held down to accuracy so
little that it is next to impossible to
find ayouth who can copy list of
printed names without misspelling.
We have boys who cannot spell, men
who cannot spell, teachers who cannot
spell, teachers of English who cannot
spell, college professors who cannot
spell and have a mean opinion of spell

that Lucy Reed was still a patient
there.

In San Antonio. We were boy and

MOUNT ARAFAT ASCENDED.
The Task Was Recently Accom-
plished by a Party of Russian
Scientists, A..

The Ararat mountains in Armenia
comprise two peaks situated seven
miles apart. They are known as
Great and Little Ararat, and are re-
spectively 1890 and 14,320 feet above
the plain. They partially belong to
three countries. Russia. Turkey and
Persia. The mountains are covered
on the tops with perpetual snow, ice
and glaciers. The summit of Great
Ararat was reached in 1929 by Prof
Parrot, says the Scientific American,
and on September 2, 1900, a member
OF the Russian Geographical society
named Peoggenpohl ascended the
peak with considerable party. The
difficulties of the ascent are very
great, and his successful expedition
will be welcome news in geographical
circles. Ascents are rare, having been
made in 1884, 1643, 1915, 1850 and 1856.
Little Ararat is even more difficult
to climb, as its declivities are greater
and sleeper, it's form being almost
conical. It is believed to be the, spot
where the ark rested, but there is a
tradition that Mount Judi in south
ern Armenia was the spot. The noun
tain is of volcanic origin and was in
eruption in 1855, and in 1910 there
was a vast discharge of sulphurous
vapors from it's sides. and tremen-
dous earthquake shook the surround
ing country. There is considerable
literature devoted to the mountain.

OFF ON A DARING VOYAGE.
Been Started on q Dash to
TIE North Pole

There has just sailed from Ham
burg what may be set down as among,
the most daring band of arctic explor-
ers on record. The little vessel is
the Matador, a common North sea
fishing-boat with register of but
IL tons. It depends wholly on sail
power. The crew consists of six
men, the owner and captain being
Lieut.. Won Bauendahl. His plan, after
leaving Tromsoe. is to sail as far
north as the ice will permit; then
he will abandon his little vessel and
force his way ahead with sleds. AS
to his return. that will be guided by
circumstances, says a contemporary.
Though the Matador is so small,
yet the expedition takes along enough
provisions and fuel to last three years.
This is packed in water-tight boxes
so constructed that they can be used
either as RATS or boats. They have
runners also. and so can be used as
sleds. Capt. Won Bauendahl has spent
his entire fortune in preparation for
the trip. He is 45 years old and has
passed II years at sea. He and his
crew are enthusiastic and expressed
themselves as confident that they
would return with the secret of the
pole in their possession.

OLD DOG NED REsCUES BABY,
DieE After Carrying Child in Basket
Home to Weeping
MOther.

Jerome Wendfelt and family, of Jas.
per county, one day during this week
moved to a farm in Pulaski county,
Ind. After all arrangements to start
had been completed they placed in the
charge of their eldest daughter for
safekeeping baby boy aged seven
months. The daughter, in company
with her younger brothers and sister
drove ahead of the remainder of the
family.
Upon the arrival of the Wendfelt
family at their new home the baby was
missing. Farmer friends started Back
in search for the child.

baby to one of her brothers to take tc
its mother. He laid the child dowr
under a lilac bush and covered it with

HAVE FASTIDIOUS HABITS
Even Decapitatton Does Not Prevent
Certain Insects from Makinx
Grand Final Toilet.

1t has often been noticed that there
are no animals which are more dainty
and fastidious in their personal habits
than insects, the extreme pains which
the common housefy takes in attend
ing to its toilet being a good example
of this racial characteristic. The dis
covery has now been made that there
are certain insects which have such a
respect for Mrs. Grundy, and are en-
dowed with such an innate love of neat
ness and order, that not even death, or
rather decapitation, can prevent them
from making one grand final toilet,
which is clearly designed to give them
a sedate and respectable appearance
after death.
DR.. Ballion, skilled entomologist,
has discovered this remarka BILE fact,
says the New York Herald. During
one of my recent horseback rides" )" he
says, II frequently caught one of those
large flies which annoy cattle and
horses so much, and promptly got rid
of it by crushing it's head. One day,
instead of throwing the mutilated in
sect away,I placed it on the back of my
hand and indolently watched it. For
some seconds the insect remained mo-
tionless, but then, to my unbounded
surprise, it moved it's front legs for
ward to the place where the head
should have been, and, after it had
rubbed them nervously together, ap-
parently in anguish, it began to brush
it's body and to smooth it's wings with
its hind legs. Under the gentle pres
sure of these limbs the body gradually
became extended and the extremity
curved, while the wings gradually
changed their natural position and left
the upper part of the body exposed.
Meanwhile the hind legs continued to
brush each other from time to time.
Naturally I watched this extraordin-
ary sight with great interest, and, in
order to see the finale, took the insect
into my study, where it lived an entire
day, spending the time at the ungrate-
full task of making it's own funeral
toilet.''

THE TATTOOED CRUCIFIX.
How Lieut.. Commander Gilmore Was
Saved from Execution in the
Philippines.

For the first time since we had been
mander Gilmore in McClure's, the
Filipino lieutenant separated his camp
from ours. He also doubled his guard,
stationing his soldiers in the rocks
which surrounded us. Thinking all
this somewhat peculiar. I sent one of
the men to ask if he placed the guards
for our protection.
NO" was his laconic answer. Soon
afterward he came himself to our
camp, and through an interpreter
calmly informed me that he had or
ders, presumably from Gen. Tino, to
execute us in the mountains.
I have always believed that the lieu
tenants refusal to obey orders and ex-
ecute us was due to the effect pro-
duced in his mind by an incident which
had occurred a night or two earlier.
At one of our stops he had shown me
a crucifiX. which he wore hung by a
ribbon around his neck, and said to
me: THE 'Americanos' are not Chris
tions.''
"Oh, yes,' L replied. "All the Amer
leans are ChristiansI'
''But you never wear any crucifxes." :"
I opened my jacket and showed him
my breast. A crucifx had been tat
tooed there years ago, when I was a
midshipman. The Tagal leaped to his
feet with an exclamation of surprise.
He instantly crossed himself. His eyes
nearly started out of his head. I ex-
planned to him that anyone could buy
a crucifix and hang it around his neck,
but that I had endured pain to have
my crucifx pricked in the flesh, and
that, as he could see, it must always
be with me. There was a marked
change in his manner toward me after

COURT OURNING.
#Period OF Grief II Various Coun-
tries Depends Entirely On
Rank Of Deceased

Now that so many countries are
plunged into grief over the loss Of King
Humbert of Italy and the duke of
Saxe-C oburg, mourning such as pre-.
scribed by the COURTS being worn.
In England it is customary to mourn
for our king or queen three months;
for a son or daughter of our sovereign,
such as is the case now for the duke Of
Sake Coburg, it is to be six weeks;
for a brother or a sister of sovereign,
only three weeks; for an uncle, aunt,
nephew or niece, the court goes into
mourning for. two weeks; while from
three to ten days is usual for q cousin,
according to the relationship. Fhe
royal regulation for the first period is
q black dress, white gloves, black or
white shoes, feather and fans, white
pearls, diamonds or plain gold and sill
yer ornaments may be worn, says the
London Times. For the men, black
court dress with black swords and
buckles. -s~-... -.s.ss -. e,
At the end of that period, which is
generally a third of the whole, accord
ing to the rank of royalty being
mourned for, the costume is changed,
the ladies then wearing black dresses
with colored ribbons, flowers, feathers,
and ornaments, while the men remain
as before until the court goes out of
mourning. For the military and other
royal servants a black Grape band is
fixed to the left arm for the time speci-
fed, while at night the handle of the
sword is also to be enveloped in Grape.
In different countries different
mourning colors are used, but all over
Europe black is universal.
