Another instance Of a battleship
being almost ruined by the DIRE Of her

occasion Of great anxiety to Navy
Department Oiiicials. This time it is
the Nevada whose turFet was CON-
pletely disabled by the simultaneous
firing Vt her two IL inch guns, the
fianges being broken from the wheels
on which the turret reyolves render
ing 1t immOvable. The Arkansas
and the Florida are both vessels Of
the Nevada type aud extensive tests
will be inAugurated to ascertain II
they are liable to be similarly disabled.
Meanwhile, the accident has reopened
the important question rs to whether
many Of the best vessels 10 the Navy
are strong enough to withstand the
strain Of modern batteries. It is ad.
mItted that the Simultaneous firing
Ut two guns 10 one turret Is an I'm.
usual test, nevertheless 1t is claimed
that while such practice should be
avoided the turrets ought to be strong
enough to stand 1t.

Tragic Joking.

OsWalds friends were always on the
lookout for some ruse. He once mott
fed them that ON New Years day he
should get the best of them all in some
joke and New Years morning each
received this notice, Remember"
They were on their guard
AS they were leaving house where
they had breakfasted Oswald slipped
on the steps and fell on his back on
the sidewalk. His friends rushed to
his assistance, but paused before they
reached him.
''This is his ruse," some one said.
Clearly the man who was so proud
of his talent for mimicry was bent on
deceiving them all into thinking him
a dying man, for he lay there moan
ing pitifully, his face drawn and twist
ed as if with terrible pain.
His friends stood around and made
jokes and puns and Aummed lines of
comic songs, assuring him all the
while that they were not deceived by
his acting. At last he gave a hoarse,
mournful cry, looked at them sadly
and then ceased to moan or writhe.
In a never to be forgotten moment of
horror and sorrow his friends realized
that Oswald was dead. = souvenirs

'Tt is as bad as it seems, Bessie. I

Magnificent CoIors of the Toucan


People who have only seen stuffed
toucans in a museum can have no prop
er idea of the astonishing magnifcence
and beauty of their rainbow coloring
in state of nature, for the most deli
cate and most iridescent of all their
hueS are those Of the big beak and the
soft, naked parts of the face and body.
Here blue and green, crimson, orange
and yellow pass quickly into one an
other by dainty gradations. Unhappily
the tints of the soft parts are so very
evanescent that they disappear alto
gether within few hours after death,
and without them to harmonic the
general effect Of the whole the gaudy
coloring of the permanent plumage is
apt to strike one in a museum as posi-
lively garish in it's crude reds and vel
lows.
A living toucan, on the contrary,
though almost barbaric in it's magnifi-
cence, can never be accused of vulgar.
bad taste. 1t is like st. Marks at Ven
ice or the Moorish decorations of the
Alhambra at Granada, polychromatic
to the last degree yet always beautiful.
