Some of the citizens of Clinton
we're kept awake last Friday night
by the striking of the town clock
which had been put in operation the
day before and can be heard three or
four miles. 1t is stationed on the
top of the new court house and adds
to the beauty of the same. Our
county commissioners deserve the
commentator of US all for their un-
firing efforts in trying to build up
our county as they have. We have
been watching the columns OF
our neighbor, the Sampson Demo
crat, to see if it would share in
lauding those who are ever alert tt
the best interest Of our county. bu

France is veil into revolution
so drastic, so subversive, that,
although it is only in its initial
stages, one must 60 as far back as
the great Revolution for a parallel"
writes David Graham Phillips in
the December Cosmopolitan" And
he continues: "If the revolution
were merely separation Of church
and state as the news dispatches de-
clare, we could afford to neglect 1t.
But it is far, far deeper, far more
significant. 1t is a surging up OF
forces which will presently be
shaking the world" The awaken

which constitutes the present

Seemed Like a Sermon

i Now and then E. II. Sothern admits
visitors to his dressing room. He did
SO in Cincinnati, where he entertained
a somewhat nervous and excitable
gentleman during his moments off
the stage"
In the midst of one of their argu-
ments during which the visitor expos
tulated volubly, there entered the
room dignifed and decorous colored
man, who advanced to the center, say
ing in an earnest monotone: .
"Have YOU no fear of God?" and
mysteriously departed as he came.
Mr.. Sotherns guest was greatly
dumfounded, but was too we'll bred to
ask questions. Resuming his argu-
ment he again grew heated in his re-
marks, and again the colored man
quietly and mysteriously entered, and
clearing his voice, declared:
IF you were the devil himself, do
you think you could make me like
you?"
To the guests surprise, the actor
took the interruption as matter of
course, so Sothern's visitor in dazed
manner continued his argument, only

Queer situations come to pass now
and then in baseball which puzzle
players, umpire and spectators alike
for the moment and one of the queer
est happened in the Eastern League in
a game between Providence and Broc-
ton. Tommy Bannon, one of those
base runners inclined to do the unex-
.pected on the bases, was at the bat
FOR Brocton and Patsy Flaherty of the
same team was on second base. Ban
non cut loose with all his might at
straight ball, and the next instant the
leather was shrieking in line flight
toward center field. The center field
er was seen to put up his hands for
the ball, which was going straight at
him. The sun was in the center
felder's eyes and he slightly misjudg-
ed the ball, which sailed just over his
head. But as he had his hands all
set for the whizzing pellet, some
thought he had caught the ball. Ban
non saw that the ball had not been
caught and with head down tore
around the bases, kicking up clouds
Of dust en- route. He was reposing on
third base by the time the ball was
}ielded in.

The Speed of StorkS

Central Europe and the winter in Gen.
trail Africa travel with the same rapid
lty.
Slatin Pasha, an Austrian in the SER
vice of the Khedive, and now govern
or of the Central African province. of
Darfur, was for many years captive
in the hands of the Mahdi and the
Khalifa when the dervishes killed Cor
don and established their empire, now
overthrown, in the Soudan. One day,
at Omdurman, he. saw stork with
metal band attached to one of it's
hind legs. Hr caught the bird and
found engraved upon the band the
name of an old friend in Austria.
He wrote note to his friend and
tied it to the metal band. When the
stork returned to Austria for the sum-
mer the friend saw the letter, caught
the stork and read the message, which
was the first certain assurance that
the outside world received that Slatin
Was still alive. -. !. g.. 8.
This stork, as proved by the dates,
made the journey from Omdurnan to
the Austrian country place, a distance
of nearly 5000 miles, at a speed OF
more than 100 miles an hour.
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1904-04-09

No living thing, not even a scared
jack-rabbit, can travel with the speed
displayed by such birds as the stork
and the northern bluethroat. Not
only do these birus fly with a speed
which can hardly be conceived, but
they keep up their rapid flight for one
or two thousand miles at a stretch
without apparently tirirg.
Evidence has been collected recent
ly which shows that the bluethroat
flies from Central Africa to the shores
of the North Sea, a distance of 1000
miles, in less than day and night,
and making it, moreover, in one I'M
interrupted flight.
The storKs,. which spend their sum-
mers in Austria-Hungary and their
winters in India and Central Africa,
are also marvellous travellers, and
make their Journeys twice Year in
one unbroken flight each time.
From Budapest in Hungary, to La
-hore in. India is about 2,400 miles in
an air line, and the storks make the
Journey in. twenty-four hours, thus
travelling at the rate of 100 miles an
hour for the whole distance. The
storks which spend the summer in

range of the small caliber military
rifle, that entertainments in some
form or other are absolutely essential
to troops in the open.
The man who in the face of the
enemy can burrow the quickest, and
at the same time is prepared to spring
forward and seize the opportunity
that is afforded, is the best modern
day soldier.
The absolute necessity for the
spade on the field Of battle was first
clearly demonstrated in the Russo
Turkish war, when modern rifles were
brought into play. 49,.
So great, indeed, was the necessity
that the Russian general, SkoboleH,
provided every man in his command
with a spade, and when his men
reached the outskirts of CONSTANT
nople it was found that they had dis
carded every article except their
spades, belts and rifles. They had
learned a bitter and an unexpected
lesson.
At the entertainments of Plevna
they discovered to their cost the hav-
&C that could be created by deter
mined men with plenty of amm i ;lL1
ton behind earthworks.: '-t1 - 80, :: ::
The Turks had used their spades
with right good will, and in addi-
ton to their fighting trenches, had
erected bombproof works that we're
afterward the admiration of the world.
At Plevna, the Turks lived entirely
within their bombproofs during the
bombardment by the heavy artillery,
and when the assaulting columns
pushed to the front the Turks sailed
out and, lining their fighting trenches,
drove the Russians back, with terrible
slaughter. The spade made their
earthworks impregnable. but starva-
ton eventually undid what the spade
had done.
Bombproofs are usually made OF
logs placed against the side of a hill
or embankment, and the whole Gov
cred with 'earth-tuIf and sand for
preference.
Bombproofs can also be made by
simply. tunneling into the side of a
hill, the idea of a bombproof being
protection against shrapnel shell.
These shrapnel SHE'LL filled with
innumeCable buDlets, burst, rs a rule,
some 80 yards short of the enemy's
position and above it. The small shot,
together with the steel filings, etc.,
are hurled ON the top of the defenders
in the open shelter trenches, search
ing the cavity from end to end.
