was in the marine hospital at Cal
lao, Peru, when war was declared on
Chile and was just able to limp around
when two of the Peruvian gunboats
were chased into port and the Chilean
man-of-war Vengeance took up her sta
ton to blockade. There was a third
gunboat in the harbor. and there was a
great deal Of Boosting as to what the
trio would do when they got ready to
pitch in. The very least they would
do would be to sink the Chilean within
q quarter of an hour. The people
foamed and ragged, and the navy walt
ed. Those gunboats had no business
to go out against that modern ironclad,
armed with the latest and most power
full guns, and their officers knew it, but
there came a day when public opinion
drove them out. The fight lasted 20
minutes. One gunboat got back to sink
in the harbor. while the other two went
down outside. The people were fairly
wild over the defeat, and women as
well as men howled for vengeance.
The day after the fight, while still
had my quarters in the hospital, one
Of the lady visitors happened to speak
to me and discovered that was an
American. She began talking of the
fight, and never saw q madden WON
an. She was grieved, Inundated and
angered over the defeat of her country
men, and when sided with her It
brought out startling proposition. She
was the widow of Calinte. Of vast
wealth and much social and political
influence and believed that the defeat
of the Peruyians was caused by the.
timidity Of the admiral She asked me
If it was not possible that the venge-
ance could be blown up, and when
replied that it was possible what did
she do but offer me every chance, to
bring about such calamity. That
meant the use Of a steam launch which

Cash of the Ancienta.

The little brass cash, the Chinese
coins, are the lineal descendants, in
unbroken order. of the bronze ak of
remote Celestial ancestors. From the
regular Ratchet to the modern coin one
can trace a distinct, if somewhat bro
ken, succession, so that it is impossible
to say where the one leaves off and the
other begins. Here is how this curious
pedigree first worked itself out: In
early times. before coin was invented,
barter was usually conducted between
producer and consumer with metal Inn
plements, as it still is in central Africa
at the present day.
At first the Chinese In that IN
sophisticated age were content to use
real hatchets for this commercial pur-
pose, but after time, with the pro-
found mercantile instinct Of their race,
it occurred to some of them that when
man wanted half hatchet's worth
Of goods he might as well pay for them
with half Ratchet. Still. as it would
be a pity to spoil good working i'm
plement by cutting it in two. the
worthy All Sin ingeniously compromis-
ed the matter by making chin hatchets
of the usual size and shape. but far too
slender for practical usage. BY so'do-
ing he invented coin, and. what is
more, he invented it far earlier than
the claimants to that proud disttnc-
ton. the Lydians. whose electrum
staters were first struck in the seventh
century B. C.-Cornhin Magazine.

Fascinating Stories of American Spec

Fascinating Stories of American Spec.
ulation and Profits.
New York, May 10.-According to
the London correspondent of The Trib-
une, the American revel in speculation,
with details Of vast fortunes made In
the course of few weeks, continues
to fascinate and perplex Englishmen.
The holdings Of English investors in
the properties which have been maxi
ing meteoric passage across the
Western sky, we're disposed of long
ago. There has been little specuIa-
ton In London in American securities
and the market securities have risen
automatically In response to Wall
street prices.
English spectators have kept out
Of the American market because they
did not understand what was going on
and had no faith that the rise in val
ues would be permanent. They have
not made anything out of the Amer
lean market and every other market
has been stagnant ever since the open
ing of the Boer war.
If American prosperity be an mex
plicabIe marvel to Englishmen, J. Pier
pont Morgan is the inscrutible mys-
terry. His name is connected daily
with one stupendous operation after
another till the British public is pre-.
pared to accept any half penny fic-
tion about him.

then she sent for half dozen Of her

wasn't necessary for me to know
much and that previous experience
was not demanded. The launch was a
fair sized one. using naphtha and
therefore smokeless. and but few
changes were necessary to fit her with
a torpedo. There were naval officers
at hand who knew all about torpedoes,
spars and electricity. and. seeming to
work under my direction. we had the
launch fitted within week. A spar
was solidly affixed to her bows and

A strange Fire.

On the night Of March 81, 1915, about
three hours after sunset. monster
bright light arose out of the Adriatic
sea and passed from east-northeast TO
the west of southwest, crossing over
Italy In vertical line about half way
between Rimini and Leghorn. Various
estimates as to the height and size Of
the body were made. One scientist.
with amusing exactness. declared that
1t was 80 miles high at CalmerS. At
all places near It's course kissing
noise like that OF a skyrocket was
plainly heard. At Leghorn the sound
is said to have been like that Of
large cannon. quickly dying away M
til it sounded much like cart running
over cobblestones." Estimates Of its
size seem to have been as wild as those
respecting Its height. Some accounts
say that It was as "large as, house"
lie Cat says that, cit was good bali
mile in circumference" Bohn. who
has written a very readable account
of 1.-THE great meteor or strange fire
OF March 81. l876s' estimates that it
was ''Rbout one-half mile by the SMELL

It a terrifying object TO behold.
