The authorities of an English city lately found chance to do humane work by the use of the pound provided for the detention of stray animals. Into this pound there strolled, or rather limped, one day an ill-fed, ill-treated and suffering donkey, that had been found straying, with extreme wisdom, from home that did not appreciate 1t. The authorities, being humane, wanted a to keep the beast and insure it's future welfare; so they hit upon the plan of advertising for the owner in the follow ing enticing manner: Found, an ill., treated donkey. Anybody applying for the same will be instantly prosecuted" They kept the donkey.

$ Tn Sweden a committee was recently appointed by the government for the purpose of ascertaining how many hours children of various ages ought to sleep in order that they might be able to study properly. According to the re- port forwarded to the Minister of Edu- 5cation, children who are four years old should sleep twelve hours; children who are seven years eleven hours; children who are nine years old, from nine to ten hours, and those who are from four teen to twenty-one years old, from nine to ten hours. It further points out that anaemia and weakness in children are frequently due to lack of sleep.

TACOMA BUYING
BACK ITS OWN BONDS
Finances Are in Such Good Shape That
City Is Seeking Outside
Investments.

TACOMA. Oct 27.-Tacoma has sur
plus cash in the interest fund. and is
now buying her own securities in the
New York market.
On October ] there was balance to
the credit of the fund of $50, 1i6. Deduct
ing interest due on December 1, bal
ance of So, 900 was forhd to be on hand,
with no more interest due until March.
Telegrams were sent to New York and
$4,000 worth of @ per cent refunding
bonds of the issue of 1891 were pur-
chased at 112. Today they are selling
at 1i3ls.
The investment nets to the city. after
the premium is deducted. 4 l-10 per cent
interest on the remaining life of the
bonds. This sum can be credited back
semi-annually to the interest fund if
the sinking fund commission is inclined
10 do so. In all probability as soon as
the amount of the premium is paid back
the bonds will be taken up with money
from the sinking fund and extinguished.
as there would be no gain In allowing
back to the city.
The surplus in the interest fund is ac-
cumulated by the receipt of back taxes.
AS these have been heavy during the
last year the interest account is In
splendid shape.

DISPUTE OF MELVILLE
]. AND BOWLES NOT ENDED
FormerFiles Minority Report
as to Cruisers.

Rear Admiral Melville still contends
that the provision of steam power for
the new cruisers of the navy is not suf-
ficient. In support of his position, he
has issued a minority report of the
board on naval construction, which is in
accordance with his views recently ex-
pressed in dispute with Rear Admiral
Bowles In his conclusions he says:
81 do not believe that the resulting
vessels will comply with the act of Con-
gress authorizing them, which requires
that they shall be of not more than
14.500 tons trial displacement, carrying
the heaviest armor and most powerful
armament for vessels of their class. and
to have the highest practical speed and
great radius of action. and to cost etc.
81 cannot believe that Congress did
not intend that these vessels should be
equal to or superior to any of their
class, that class being armorad cruisers
and not battleships. where very high
speed may not be so essential, and
am not at all certain that an extra knot
and the additional power for it should
not have been insisted on in the first
place"

TOMB OF MACEDONIAN
DEAD FOUND IN BOET|A
Report of Charles S. Francis,
Minister to Greece.

In recent dispatch to the Department
of State Charles S. Francis, United
States minister at Athens. Greece. an
nounces that an unusually interesting
archaeological discovery has just beea
made in the northern part of Boetia, in
a plain where the ancient Greeks. Iii
33S B. c., lost their independence. being
routed in a decisive battle by Philip OF
Macedon.
DR.. Soteriades had been sent up there
TO examine the ruins of an ancient mon
ument in the form of lion, which the
erected on the spot where they had
buried those last brave defenders of an
cient Hellenism, who had failed in this
battle of Chaeroneia. The purpose Of
Soteriades' mission was to make pre-
liminary studies preparatory to the re-
building of the lion monument, which
the crown prince has decided to re-
store at his personal expense.
Imperfectly Cremated.
But DR.. Soteriades, in making tenta-
tive excavations, found low tumulus
in exactly the site where Plutarch de-
scribes the Macedonian soldiers of Philip
to have been buried. This tumulus he
opened, and found therein the remains of
the Macedonian dead, packed in layers.
Most of the bones are charred, and the
soil is mixed with ashes, showing that
the bodies were cremated imperfectly.
The Importance of the discovery is
that topographsts will be better able TO
identify the sites of the battlefield, ar
chaeologists will expect to find Mace
donian accounterments. etc, and eth
nologists by studying the skulls-some
well preserved specimens having already
been found-will be able to come to some
conclusion regarding the racial affinities
of the ancient inhabitants of Macedonia.
