1t must have been some American
Burns who expressed this Senti-
mcnt, for Mrs. Everard CoteS (Sara
jeanette Duncan) has responded to
it in THOSE DELIGHTFUL L
AM ERICANS, and in her own
inimitablc way. 1t is just what
could be expected from her with a
mind full of fanciful ideas springing
from the thought of how we must
appear to the average Britisher, "
and with a pen ready to dip into
ink pregnant with the germs of
wit, satire and humor. With Irish
blood in her veins, an American
training and a trip around the
world for experience, Mrs. Cotcs
possesses an irresistible Combna-
ton, and the result is novel that
makes the reader bubble over with
mirth and animatcs him with a
strong desire to tell his neighbor
all about it. The experiences OF
some English people visiting Amer

breezy fun, and the attempts of

One Of the many books called forth by the
Boer war and the awakening Of England TO her
insufficency OF military preparations is Henry
Seton-Karr's The Call 70 Arms which the
Longmans are bringing out. Mr.. Seton-Karr,
who is a Member of Parliament and has been

Yeomanry movement and some subjects con-
nected Herewith" He discusses expert rife
shooting such as could be accomplished by the
old burgher class, who formed the backbone OF
the Boer forces, now for the most part pris-
oners of war" One Of the stories he tells of
what constant practice. such as is gained on the
frontier. can do. is this relating 10 the Pan

An Indian chief in full paint stood on a
bluff overlooking a valley whose settlers he and
his tribe intended that day TO raid Fortunately.

Indian chief dead the spot The distance,
afterward measured found TO be l.ib

Western prairies this shot. with the weapon OF
that day was lucky one but its success was
also due 10 the constant rife practice by the
settler in question. Its effect was startling and
complete. That particular Indian rising col

NEW IRRIGArING PUMP.
Finney County Man Invents a 400
Gallon Per Minute One.

Garden City, Kas., Jan. 21.-The I'M
print says: 1t would seem the subject
of elevator lifts had been exhausted
long ago, but w. S. Pittman, of this
county, has succeeded in inventing
something new in this line-not only
new, but far SURPRISING anything of
the kind that has preceded it.
Our reporter visited Mr.. Pittman'S
place and saw his elevator irrigation
pump The pump consists of ga1van-
lied iron buckets hung on chains run
over sprocket wheels, and is operated
by windmill, horse power or gasoline
engine. This elevator differs from all
others in the shape of its buckets and
the manner in which they are fastened
to the chains. In the old sy1e elevators
the carrying chains are riveted to the
buckets, but in Pittman's invention the
buckets are fastened to the chains by
having Sits to allow sufficient play in
turning the bucket to empty, and thus
avoids practically all friction. The vent
to admit and discharge the water is on
the front side at the top, a small valve
in the bottom of the bucket aiding in
the admission of water. The top and
the lower rear corners are beveled,
which allows the buckets to be placed
almost touching each other the
chain, and gives a perfect delivery of
the water. Turning on a 12-foot wind
mill, in a 12-mile wind, with a 10-foot
lift this pump gave 400 measured gall
Ions of water per minute, and hitching
on the gasoline engine it delivers a
young river, enough to keep q man
hustling to take care of it properly.
Mr.. Pittn an guarantees that this size
of his pump, with not over a 2O-foot
lift, will irrigate forty acres.
