physical strength was gigantic. He
was accustomed to the use OF weapons,

his judgment. For example, when an
adversary shot him ana he supposed he
was done for he inflated his lungs TO
the full, conscious that he would live
as long as ne could hold his breath
then he drew his knife and did his
bloody work. That was when he killed
Turner. After all, speaking musingly.
reviewing his life, he confessed to re-

How "There's a Hole in the Bottom
of the Sea" Caught On.
Speaker Henderson has set the
pace for choral efforts up country"
said a statesman back from the Blue
Ridge club 'The speakers favorite
song, There's Hole in the Bottom Of
the Sea, now resOunds through every
stretch of woodland from Edwards
Ferry to Sleepy Creek and North
Mountain. The range Of the tune and
the jingle of the words are just about
suited to mountaineer efforts, and Mr..
Henderson made great hit with his
song.
1T seems that the speaker was up
earlier in the season along with
bunch of good fellows who were guests
of railroad official in his private car.
There were about thirty in the con.
gressional party, and the Blue Ridge
clubhouse was taxed to accommodate
them and some of the club members
slept on sofas in the reading room.

Novel Sea-Sickness Cure.

NJ. dss Planches, the Italian ambas-
sador to Washington, who has re-
turned there from Italy, had a terri
bly, rough voyage The ambassador is
said to have told his friends that he
discovered a remarkable cure for sea-
sickness by looking at his own re-
Election in mirror. The longer he
looked the better he became, until the
sea sickness vanished. The explana-
ton given is that by gazing into a
mirrors the eye rests on an unchang-
ing surface and the sense of motion
gradually becomes less. This produces
a soothing effect on the braiL and the
stomach and restores the victims
equilibrium.
