custom, did no go to the Bascilica OF the.

turned out to be almost the equal of the
Spanish Mauser. But when the first volun-
teer fired off his. Springfield at San Juan
hill he saw that he was fighting the present
with the past.
He perceived that the smoke of his cart
ridge made him a target for his invisible
enemies; and that, even when they showed
themselves at any distant point, they could
open up hole in his immediate atmosphere
without his enjoying the slightest chance Of
interfering with tn rir comfort The volun-
teer soon learned, besides, how vast was the
disadvantage of the Springfeld's curved ira
jectory. When the volunteer fired pointblank
at the Spaniards his bullet was likely to go
over their heads for many hundred feet If
he calculated that the Dons were 400 yards
away, and adjusted his sight accordingly,
lie might fail to make a. strike. So marked
was the curve of the bullet that it descended
sharply towards the ground. If the enemy
was not 400 yards distant, If they were 800
yards or 500, they were practically safe.
The regulars, the other hand, were
able to profit by the much f1atter trajectory
of their Krags. Whenever Krag was aimed
pointblank and fired, the Castillans in front
would probably know II. The bullet, moving
nearly in straight line, would reach them,
whether they were nearer or further than
the marksman with the Krag supposed, and
if the ball did not strike the men aimed at,
it would not drop to earth. 1t would keep on
burrowing through stray Spaniards ri
cocheting against pebbles and creating a
vague uneaSineSS among the foreigners Tor
a mile or more in front and on each side.
The krag was great Improvement, With
out doubt, upon the Springfield. But now the
newer Springfield is great improvement
the Krag. The rife of 1903 shoots further,
shoots straighter than the Krag, and has
trajectory still fatter. The new weapon Is
several inches shorter, considerably lighter.
Its magazine takes five cartridges from a
clip like the Mauser, and not one cart
ridge at q time The barrel of the latest
model is covered with wood on all sides as
far as the muzzle, so that the barrel may
never feel too warm. The recoil of the I'm
proved piece is only a genial slap in COM
parison with the Springfield's ponderous
nus

1.-The chop suey sundae is the newest
drink" said the white-clothed youth be-
hind the white marble bar OF the soda
water place. III mix you one for a
sample"
Since chop suey. the solid. is made of
onions, young bamboo. pork. celery, and
chicken blood, the inquisitor hesitated
about trying it in fliquid form But the
attendant, smilingly, said:
THE ingredients of the real chop suey
of Chinatown are not used in the chop
suey sundae. The drink gets its name be
cause it resembles chop suey I'm hue II is,
in fact, black-black as midnight. II might
be called nocturne."
The young man then made a chop suey
sundae. He mixed together dates, figs,
chocolate and soda water The drink when
effervescent ink. In taste, however, ftfwas
strange and pleasant.
we are having good run or frosted
coffee this year." the attendant said.
Frosted coffee is fresh coffee chilled very
suddenly and mingled with certain agreea-
bic f1avors that can't specify unless am
paid for the information. This drink, like
iced tea, cools and exhilarates.
Mint sangaree is refreshing drink that
you can make at home II you have a
mint leaves and handful of shaTed ice
Then, with a masher you mash the leaves
to pulp. Now you add some sort OF fruit
and you fiji the glass from your siphon
with settler. This mixture you shake In a
metal shaker and strain, adding at the
moment of serving. a straw, a cherry and
a bunch of fresh mint that protrudes from
the glass like a bouquet.
Here is new idea for you in the serv-
ing of ginger ale. Peel a lemon in a spiral
taking off the whole rind in one strip-a
strip half an inch wide and four or I'VE
inches long. Set this strip in your tall
ginger ale glass in such sway that one
end clings to the rim and the other end
rests on the bottom. Then serve the GIN
ger ale with the lemon peeling upright
in il.

WHAT THE WOODS DID FOR BOBBY.

Leonidas Hubbard. jr.. an August outinl

Leonidas Hubbard, jr., IN August Outing
Bobby was on the edge Of a wilderness
not thirty miles from the Hudson river.
On the other side of the wilderness was
another railroad and more lakes and
streams, with more hotels and cottages
upon them. Bobby's chief ambition had
been connected with collars and cravats. He
had graduated from law school the rrev-
ious June. and was wondering whether 10
go back home and practie in his country
town, where practice would come easy and
never grow big, or cast his lot in the city
and build on broad foundation Men told
him the city venture meant starvation,
and he decided to go to the home town.
One day IL occurred to Bobby 10 stop
resting and cross the wilderness to the
other settlement Then Bobby heard such
stories OF that stretch of woods as he had
heard OF the city. He would get lost and
starve- But one of Bobby's grandfathers
had fought Indians with Daniel Boone and
some way the call of the wilderness seemed
TO stir strain Of blood that had never
moved before Any way Bobby forgot his
collar and cravat He donned a flannel
shirt. and he entered the wilderness. Night
found him wading in a painless swamp.
He climbed on a log and spent the night.
Morning came and Bobby got out OF the
swamp and started over a mountain that
lay directly In his path That day his grub
gave out, but he caught fish. and the in
stincts OF grandfather returning he man
aged 10 Kill grouse. Next day he walked
Tor an hour through a blackberry thicket.
and when, the day after, ne emerged In the
edge OF little settlement sis trousers legs
were Hopping like flags in the wind. The
hotel clerk told Bobby he could not eat in
t3e regular dining room.
When he came out of the servants din
ing room that night he went 10 the post
Office for fear OF shocking the sensibilities
of the gentlemen in the writing room, aud
there wrote note declining a place in the
office OF the old family friend at home,
and said he had decided TO practice law IN
the bigger. harder field Of the metropolis.

Philadelphia Record.

A mans trousers, when a tailor presses
them in the summer, are nearly always
pressed with the ends turned up, but in
winter they are pressed turned down.
Why" a man said to a tailor the other
day, why this difference?' The tailor an
swered to this grave question: Trousers
are pressed turned up in the summer be-
cause it is presumed that every man wears
them turned up in this season. He wears
them so because in the summer he wears
low shoes, and trousers that are not turned
up catch at the back in such shoes. But
turned UP, they don't touch the shoes; they
don't catch in them; they set right. That is
the main reason why we turn up trousers in
the summer Another reason is that warm,
damp weather affects trousers length; it
makes them an inch longer and sometimes,
if they are heavy, it makes them two or
three inches longer. Hence, II they were not
turned up they would drag, like a woman's
train over the dirt"
