Annoying, isn't it,? said the long,

sitting next to him, according to the

The American people drink nothing
but labels, as there are no chateau or
vineyard wines shipped to the United
States" That is what DIR. H. w. Wi
ley chief of the bureau of chemistry
of the Agricultural Department, who
has just returned from a trip abroad,
was told by one of the leading wine
experts in London. DR.. Wiley had
called upon the expert to consult with
him as to the best method of exclud-
ing falsely labelled foreign wines from
the United States. If the statement
of the expert is true, some action
should be taken by Congress to insure
buyers of foreign wines getting the
quality and the vintage for which
they pay. DIR. Wiley does not accept
the statement as wholly true, but he
believes that the shipments of chateau
or vineyard wines are usually confined
to special impOrtations for private
purchasers. What is needed from
Congress, DR. Wiley thinks, is "A suffi-
Gent appropriation to enforce the ex-
listing law against the Importation Of
falsely labelled wines.

Let him be put to DEATH" shouted
the chief of the robber band in loud
tones, says the Boston Post.
Willing hands dragged the victim into
the circle of their camp and bound him
with wrapping cord.
The victim stood up. facing the exc
cutioner. The robbers had no handker-
chief to bind the victims eyes, so he
was told to shut them. The eXecutioner
stepped forward and raised the rifle to
his shoulder with its muzzle pointing at
the victims heart. The rifle was made
out of wood and wouldn't shoot real
bullets, so the executioner exploded
the deadly weapon by saying Bang"
1t so happened that the victim did
not hear the report and therefore did
not know that he had been killed.
But the robbers knew it. and their
chief shouted in disgust:
"Aw, why don't yer fall down, Tim
didn't you hear him shoot ?"

SOME coon AFrER AL.

Submarine torpedo boats have not
been held in high esteem by naval Off
GERS. The inventor of that type of
craft had hard work to induce the gov
eminent to test and accept the vessels,
against the opposition of officers of the
navy. The little divers were referred
TO as death traps" and other unpleas-
ant things and when at the first there
was a series of accidents to them there
was wise wagging of naval heads
and many dismal predictions.
But during the maneuvers off New
port the submarines, operating under
conditions that might have existed in
actual warfare, proved their right to
existence and employment in the navy.
AS a matter of fact, the performance
of the little divers was the most in
teresting and doubtless the most valu-
able maneuvers executed during the
sham engagements. Our dispatches
have already told how the torpedo boat
Craven, lying off Brenton's Reef light
ship, was successfully attacked and
torpedoed by the submarine Adder.
The Adder dived and remained under
water forty-five minutes, during which
time her crew ate dinner. Coming to
the surface again she sighted her "en-
envy" again dived and when in range
fired a dummy torpedo that struck the
Craven fairly amidships. Had the pro-
jectile been a real torpedo, the Craven
would have been blown out of the wa
ter. Notwithstanding the utmost vigi-
lance on the part of the Cravens crew
the Adder was not discovered until
after she had fired her dummy tor
pedo and moved off. This perform
ance was at sea, and indicates what
an attacking fleet might expect at the
entrance to harbor that was de-
Tended by submarine torpedo boats.
Having shown that a submarine boat
is a practicable and most formidable
engine of war, inventive genius must
now seek to evolve a destroyer of sub
marine boats. The old controversy be-
tween attack and defense, which in
! wolves destruction by both sides, is
| still far from settled.

His mother took him to task for tell

why, Jack! What do you mean?
Mother wouldn't tell you a lie. It's
