MoccAslNs FOR SOLDIERS.
Inquiries Made by Representatives Of
Powers at War for Dangers
Golden Slippers"

Inquiries have been received in
Bangor, Me-, from persons sup
posed TO represent either the Rus
sian or the Japanese government
concerning prices for moccasns
in large quantities and the earli-
est date of delivery at Atlantic or
Pacific ports. 1t is supposed that
the moccasins are wanted for sol
diers campaigning in Manchuria.
For that purpose they would be
eminently suitable, says the New
York Sun.
The moccasin is the favorite
footwear of the lumbermen of
Maine, and wasfirst made in Ban
gor in 1851. AT first only one or
two styles we're made. but now
mOccasins are manufactured in
great variety, ranging from slip

rigans Of the Penobscot lumber.
men.
Much of the sewing is still done
by hand, being let out by the piece
to French Canadian families III
the neighbOrhood of Bangor. All
mOccasins are made of a specially
prepared leather, rendered a gold
en- yellow by peculiar process of
tanning.
The common moccasin is not
proof against water. but it has
room for several pairs of stock
ings, and that is astrong point in
its favor. For keeping the feet
warm and dry in cold weather the
mOccasin has no equal.
The greater part Of the mecca
sin leather still comes from the
place Of its origin, Pawtuckct.

The first thing to realize about DO
etry is that the meter is the mean
ing even more than words. In Tenny
sons sad, Tears, idle tears for ex-
ample it is not So much the words
that arc accountable for the wistful
sorrow of the general effect as the
sad rainlike melody mysteriously
charging the words with sorrow like
some beautiful inserpretative voice:
and it is this subtle mimetic quality
endlessly adaptable which is the rea-
son de etre of meter and the secret
OF its power over mankind
Perhaps it may help us to attempt
here definition of though
it is bold even foolhardy thing to
do, for there has never yet been a
definition of poetry that satisfied an
y one but the man who made it. We
may recall one fashionable in its day.
Matthew Arnolds, Poetry is crit
icisln of life. That poet should have
made such narrowing definition is
though one OF course under
stands it in the light of the fact that
the inspiration of Matthew Anold' S
muse was almost entirely that of a
philosophical criticism Of life. Ear
from being criticism of life, poetry
Is much more like d recreation of it.
1t is life in words But let me timid-
ly launch my own definition:
Poetry is that impassioned arran-
gements of words whether in verse
or prose which embodies the exalta
tion, the beauty, the rhythm and the
pathetic truth uf life. Success.

JAPAN's FIRST IRoNcLAD.
Her Crew Made q Brave Start, But
Couldn't Stop Her TIL Fires
Went Out.

That the role of Japan as a mar
thine power is a new one is
brought strongly to our notice by
recalling the quite we'll authcn-
ticated story of the first adven-
ture of the first japanese iron
clad, says Country Life.
She was built in England.
While she was building her crew
were also in England practicing,
in other ironclads how to drive
her. When she was finished the
japanese seamen took possession
of her, brayely maintaining that
they were fully equal to the task
of starting her.
And that, to be sure, they were,
for she steamed out finely. The
trouble only began when she came
back to port again. Then, when
they wanted to slow her down and
stop her, they were unable to do
so.
They had to put her out to sea
again and go on steaming her
about till her fires went out, her
engines stopped for want of
steam, and she could be towed in.
From this to having the best
mentally-equipped crews, perhaps,
of any nation seems a long step,
but it has been very rapid one.

Interesting History Of Cane Once

The cane reposed during the fire
in the vault of the Merchants

Liberty and German streets, says
the New York Sun.
I'm Gen. Washington's will,'
said Maj. Raleigh, "two canes are
mentioned. One was bequeathed

Forgot the Chimney.

A short time ago public cere-
mony was to be carried out at
Landshut, an important town in
Lower Bavaria. "A new public
school was to be formally opened,
and all Landshut quivered with
pleasurable anticipation. Unfor-
tunately the festivities had to be
put off at the last moment. The
school could not be opened. No

SHARK AS A MESSENGER.
Carried Newspaper to Sydney outdis-
tancing Steamer Conveying I'M
portant Item Of News.

The story Of the discovery of
human bones and bangles in the
interior of the crocodile captured
at Fort johnson, .Rhodesia,
brings to mind another story
which may appositely be recalled
at the present juncture. Every
body has heard of Mrs. Macquar-
rie's chair" as they call the east
ern point of Farm Cove, in Sydney
harbor. There, says the st.
James Gazette, it was that a poor
emigrant, in pre-cable days. killed
and towcd ashore q shark, cut him
up, and found a London newspa-
per in the Intervals. In the paper
was the announcement of the war
between France and Germany.
The shark had outdistanced the
steamer by which the mail was
coming, and here the discoyerer
had the fact to himself. He gave
his information to wealthy wool
dealer, who bought all the sea-
sons clip at Cd. per pound, AMI
sold at IS. after the news of the
war had arrived by the ordinary
channel. He cleared, it is said,
four millions sterling by the deal.
The man who killed the shark and
extracted the news of price-well,
he received a battered silk hat
and a five shilling piece and unre-
strained liberty as to the disposal
of the shark.

Insect Senses.

Naturalists have decided that
many insects have senses which
human beings lack. That of loca-
ton, shown by the wasp, for in
stance, is remarkable. One spe-
cies builds it's nest in q sandbank
that is only part OF several acres
Of such soil, and when it leaves in
search of food it covers the nest SO
carefully that no ordinary eye
could discover its location. That
is to say it is just like all the sur
rounding location, and yet the
wasp flies back to it without hes
itation and finds it without max
ing a mistake. There is another
wasp that unerringly locates the.
eggs of the mason bee under a
thick layer of sun-baked clay, and
deposits her eggs in the same
cells that her young may have
food when they are Matched.
