WHERE DUMoNT GOT IDEA.
The Automobile Motor Gave the Bra
lillian Inventor Plan for His
Airship

To the automobiles due the dirigible
balloon, which has won fame, if not
fortune, for its inventor and plucky
exploiter, Santos-Dumont. The daring
little Brazilian thus tells how he first
became possessed with the idea of
lequipping a balloon with motor. says
the Motor World:
4 got my first idea by putting an au-
tomo bile motor under cigar-shaped
balloon filled with hydrogen gas while
returning from the Paris-Ams terdam
automobile race in 1897. From the be-
ginning everybody was against the
idea. / was warned that an explosive
gas engine would ignite the hydrogen
gas above it, and that the resulting ex-
plosion would end the experiment with
my life. My balloon maker went to
work without enthusiasm, and / met
with nothing but discouragement.''

MAKES WAR ON COBWEBS.
Porto Ricans Call Them Lucky, But
DR.. Cordero Says They Spread
Disease.

Cobwebs are considered signs of
good luck in Porto Rico, and many
shopkeepers there refuse to brush
them out of corners or from ceilings
Attention is called to the subject by
DR.. Cordero, of San Juan, who says
it is time for the superior board of
health to act.
The board recently issued an order
prohibiting splitting on the floors of
stores and public buildings, and DR..
Cordero heartily approves this order.
He adds that the board should con-
tinue its good work by declaring war
on cobwebs, says the New York Sun.
These webs, says the doctor, con-
tain more germs to the square inch
than most people imagine. They hang,
in many instances, over counters and
cases where articles of food are dis
played for sale, and pieces dropping
from the web reach this food. In
this way disease is spread.
DR.. Cordero warns the board that it
will be difficult to enforce an ordi-
nance such as he suggests, for in
Porto Rico a good-sized cobweb over
the door is considered luckier than a
horseshoe.

THE PATRIOTIC BOY.
He Believed in Sticking Up for His
Country Whether Right or
Wrong.

He was at school in Canada, and it
was his first day in class. The geog-
raphy lesson was called, and it was his
turn to answer, says the New York
Tribune.
Which is the largest city in the
world?" asked the teacher.
New York unhesitatingly came
the answer.
Il mean the largest city in the
world" said the teacher.
AS promptly came the reply: New
York"
But" expostulated the teacher, 81
did not say the largest city in the Unit
ed States, but the largest city in the
world. You surely know which is the
largest city in the world"
''New York, persisted the boy.
London has larger population
than New York. said the teacher. ''It
/ do not have the correct answer this
time | shall have to punish you. Come
now" coaxingly, "tell me the name OF
the largest city in the world
New York
''Stay in during recess and write me
SO lines"
He wrote the SO lines, and every line
read: 'The biggest city in the world
is New York.

The willy Poacher.

One of the latest wrinkles of the
poacher who goes after quail before
the season opens consists in taking the
forearm off his gun and leaving it at
home. This permits the barrel to
come free from the stock whenever the
gun is ''broken down" The poacher
hides the two pieces under his coat un-
til he is out of sight of spectators, says
a London paper. Then he puts the two
pieces together again, which is the
work of only a second or two, and is
ready for shooting. If a game warden
or other suspicious person heaves in
sight the gun is instantly apart and
tucked away under the coat and the
poacher is busily engaged in hunting
ginseng.

WAR MADE BY RULE.
How a Martinez in the English Army
Made His Troops March
Without Food.

An officer now in England sends the
following story from South Africa, for
the accuracy of which he vouches, says
the Chicago Daily News:
~ brigade had been marching with
scarcely any food for nearly "a hours
continuously. When it halted and
rations were served out and the cook
ing had commenced one regiment was
asked by the brigade major to extin-
guish its fires, as they were not in
line with those Of the regiment on
its right The C. o. of the regiment
in question demonstrated as strongly
as possible, pointing out that if the
fires were put out there would be
neither time nor fuel (the latter was
very scarce and limited in quantity)
to get the cooking finished before the
troops had to march off. But in spite
of all he could say the brigade major
insisted, the fires were put out and
before the tea could be boiled and the
meat cooked the regiment had to
march, the men having had no food"
It would appear from this, says the
London Truth, as if the process of edu-
eating our officers in the feld-staff Of
ficers at any rate-was still proceed
ing only slowly. The incident is Of
the more interest since the brigade
major concerned is a professor in one
of our military schools If the war
office would like his name we shall be
pleased to give it to them-of course,
in confidence.
