deep-laden. The Lorne made for the
shimmering vision, which appeared to
be but about 20 miles distant. She
steamed for several hours at full speed.
BY that time the picture had faded away.
Capt. Cutler was not satisfied to confess
himself beaten and held his course, with
the result that the British ship Falk-
landbank was picked up, exactly realiz-
ing in every minute detail the picture
that had sent the towboat on her quest.
The experience is not by any means an
isolated one. The mirage, more than

WAR IMPLEMENT MUSEUM.
Uncle Sans Trophies Kept in Lit
tie Building in Washington
Navy Yard.

In view of the recent action OF tho
Spanish war veterans at their annual
encampment at st. Louis in adopting
resolutions urging congress to establish
at Washington a war or military muse
um, it is interesting to note that the only
museum of war in this city is at the
Washington navy yard, which has been
in existence for many years, but is COM
paratively obscure owing to it's location.
This little museum Is in neat, but old
fashioned two-story building, not far
from the main gateway at the Eighth
street entrance to the yard, says the
Washington Star. Over its doorway Is
a signboard, bearing the simple legend.
Museum" On the inside are many
implements of destruction, illustrative
of the art of war from the primitive days
to the present time with its wonderful
death-dealing inventions. Ancient war
fare Is illustrated by queer looking
breech loading cannon, made in 1870, in
Spain, and brought over by Cortez in
his conquest of Mexico. The breech
block, into which was placed the charge
of powder and the projectile, somewhat
resembles a crude tailor iron of long
ago. A Chinese breech loader of the
twelfth century is said to be on exhibi-
ton at Fort Monroe.

ton in the navy yard museum is an odd

TOOK BOYS SUGGESTION.
Plowboy Came Out Of the Field and
Told Railroaders How to Start
Stalled Engine.

A travelling man relates that while rid
ing on the new orient Line between Harper
and Anthony a few days ago, one of the
side rods of the engine broke, and the other
side stopped on a dead CENTER" SO that
when the repair was made it was impossible
to start again. According to the Kansas
City. Star he says:
'"The engineer, the conductor and all
the passengers took turns going over the
thing and trying to devise way. to make
it run. Finally boy came out of the field
where he had been blowing to see what was
going on. He crawled through the wire
fence and sat down on the bank and famed
himself with his straw hat. If you'd back
that last car up the grade an let 'er come
down gerchunk, that 'ud start 'er, he final
" suggested, deliberately.
'The railroad men shifted contemptuous-
ly, but the passengers sided with the boy.
Finally the conductor gave orders that the
rear car be uncoupled. No less than so pas
sengers caught hold and pushed the car up
the grade. Once at the top the car was
let 90, The loose coach gained momentum
as it came down hill, and in spite OF the en-
gineer's admonition to let her come down

A Soldiers Marked Coin.

Forty years ago, soldier, now of
Union City, received on payday silver
half-dollar. Silver had then become so
scarce that he carved his name and the
number of his regiment thereon and
thought to keep it. This resolution
lasted two or three days and then he
spent the coin.
He recently received this coin in a
transaction, and has now retired 1t from
circulation. The full history of the half
dollars wanderings cannot be traced,
no more being learned than that it was
spent for tobacco once, whisky twice,
was in missionary box once. and four
years ago was lost and won in an cleo
ton bet on Bryan.--Detroit Tribune.

a lawyer, whose witty retorts furnished

husband, relates Success. The case had
been placed upon the "day calendar but
had been frequently. postponed, and Mrs.
Moriarity, by the time she had made her

Nolan's rich brogue were more than usual

THE FORAGER.
Sudden Attack Of Rheumatism Pre-
vents His Using His Poultry
Loaded Drum.

At q dinner during the recent Gaines
Vile maneuvers, the conversation turned
to wartime foraging, and this story was
told:
There was much talk of foraging
among the veterans gathered in Boston
in August. One veteran told about a
captain and a certain drummer.
This drummer could almost make a
drum talk. There was hardly his equal
in the army. Hence, on every occasion
of importance, he was put in conspicu-
GUS post, and by his great skill with
the drum sticks he reflected credit on
his company.
with colors flying bravely in the
sun, the army one morning entered a
conquered town. The tanned young he
roes stepped out splendidly. The side
walks were crowded with onlookers.
The drummers and the fifers filled the
air with brisk, inspiring music.
"The captain marched with the colo
mel.
"'This is all good music, SIR he said,
but I want to call your attention to
my drummer. There he is, the tall fell
low with red hair
"The two officers looked at the skilled
drummer, and, 10, he was not drum
ming at all. His sticks were thrust in
his hip pocket, and he marched idly
and gayly along, joking and winking at
the girls.
Smith, cried the captain, angrily,
go over to the drummer and find out
why he is neglecting his duty in this
shameful way
Trooper Smith departed, and on his
return he whispered in the captain s
ear:
"The drummer has two geese and q
turkey in his drum, sir, and he says the
turkey is for you
1.-THE captain glanced hastily at the
colonel to see If Smiths whisper had
been overheard. Then he said in loud
pleasant voice:
"'Oh. very well. Why didn't he say
before that he had rheumatism in his
arms?"

MooTED POINT IN HISTORY
Eyewitness Explains End Of the
Merrimac and Why the Con-
federates Blew Her Up.

In q communication recently pub.
lished In the Troy Times, William L.
Stone, of Mount Vernon, N. Y, in the
interest of the truth of history"
says in regard to the destruction of
the Merrimac at Hampton Roads in
the spring of 1862:
Second, the Merrimac was not sunk
by the Monitor, but, being driven into
the Roads by that vessel, was subse-
quently blown up, either by the con-
federates or ourselves, this being still
a mooted point So much for his:
tory"
If one who was present on that
memorable occasion may venture to
speak on this "mooted point" the
writer, who was an officer attached
to the United States ship Susquehan-
ma, then lying at anchor at Fortress
Monroe, and who saw the fragments
Of the Merrimac as they fell, begs to
say that the Merrimac was not
driven into the Roads by that YES
sell (the Monitor; also that the Mer-
rimac was destroyed by the confed-
crates. There was no question about
that at the time of the occurrence
among those who were present and
participated in the stirring events of
the period.
The facts are that q movement by
land on Norfolk had been projected
and was being projected under the eye
Of President Lincoln. Troops had been
Conveyed in barges from Fortress Mou-
roe to Sewells Point, and were NOV
ing OF Norfolk. This movement forced
the evacuation of Norfolk and its
Notifications by the confederates. i he
navy yard was fired and the Merrimac,
which had been lying at Norfolk,
moved down Hampton Roads, where
her officers and crew destroyed her.
The Monitor was all the time at an
Choir near Susquehanna. She did
| not drive the Merrimac Into the
Roads" The federal vessels, which
were all lying with anchors buoyed,
slipped their cables and Immediately
after the explosion were under way for
Norfolk. The Susquehanna was the
second vessel in the line. The first,
whose name 1 forgot, met with no diff
| ficulty, but the Susquehanna struck
upon a pile of obstruction, which, for
| tunately, she passed over, and pro-
| ceeded with the first vessel, and short
| ly reached Norfolk, where at the navy
| yard the fire was still raging furious
| ~. So much for the "mooted point.
