 He says that he and his wife and children were returning from ramble in the country when they noticed a cir cuIar depression in the vegetable patch close to the cottage.

WORE PINK WINGS.

President Hadley of Yale in his speech at the Yale Hartford alumni din rer last night, over which Bishop Brewster of Connecticut presided. re- called an incident of Yale university life that pleased lis audience immensely:
 f"I am specially glad to meet with alumni presided over by Bishop Brews- ter. Perhaps the reason he makes such a good bishop is that as he looks hack over his life he remembers an incl dent of his early life which might rot add to his reputation.
 The so- called sanitary commission of which the bishop and | were mem bers. once gave Midsummer Nights Dream in the music hall in New Haven. was a fairy with pink wings. Bishop Brewster was a king of fairies. To me. then. the bishops figure always appears as the grand emperor of fairyland."-- New Haven Letter to New York Sun.

WHY SHE WAS THANKFUL.

The thankful spirit finds occasion for gratitude for the smallest comforts. Lippincctt's Magazine tells this: A campmeeting was in progress in the wire grass region of Georgia. The af- ternoon service was conducted by Un- cle Nose Bradford, an exhorter of deep niety, but entirely innocent of book learning. He took for his text on this occasion the words of St. Paul: 'Fo. have learned in whatsoever state I am herewith to be content" After talking for about fifteen minutes on the beauty of contentment from a Christians point of view, he suddenly announced that he was going to throw the meeting open" His invitation was: If you've got anything to be thankful for, git up an say so" One aIter an other got up and spoke of peace and contentment under circumstances that seemed impossible, judged from a worldly standpoint Some said they were thankful for things they had miss ed. and at last an old lady arose, push ed back her sunbonnet and with beam ing countenance triumphantly exclaim- ed: Well Brother Nose. l. hain't got but two teeth. but thank God, they hitt"

HOW ABOUT THE GUNS?

The almost simultaneous breakdown of two of the Iowa's eiGhtinch guns was rather an alarming accident that fully justifies the navy departments s decision 10 end out what is wrong with the navy guns and to correct the trouble, even if to do so it is necessary to rearm the entire navy.
 The Iowa's bursted eight-inch guns were made at the Washington navy yard eight years ego. There are six more of these same guns on the Iowa. eight on the Indiana, eight on the Massachusetts, eight on the Oregon, four on the Olympia, eight on the Brooklyn, six on the New York and four on the Chicago. If the Iowa's two bursted guns were structurally weak the possibility that all these sixty other guns of the same type and man ufacture may have the same structural weakness is unpleasantly great. Unless is is demonstrated that the fracture of the Iowa's guns was not due to struct- ural weakness all these Washington yard guns should be replaced by newer and heavier ordnance.
 The bureau of ordnance i.; of opinion that the cause of the accident will be found in the powder instead of in the gun. The bureau of ordnance natural ly would incline to that opinion. and the opinion may be correct. But while the Iowa's powder should be investi- gated, the cause of the accident. what ever the result of that investigation, should also be looked for in the gun. The matter is so important that noth- ing should be taken for granted. The pride and confidence in the navy of the American people will not be increased | by suspicion that an important part of the armament~of some of the best ships | is made up of guns that are likely tc ! fall to pieces under ordinary firinr strain and to be, in action. more dan gerous to their own gTnners than tC the enemy.-Rochestey Democrat and | Chronicle

GREAT sRITIAN's THIN CRUST
Hidden Beneath the Earth Surfa=e
 Many Dangers Lurk.

How many of the millions of inhabi- tants of this tight little island" real ize that danger turks hidden and un- suspected beneath many an apparent ly firm and rigid city pavement, be- heath many a smiling green field. and even beneath the back gardens which they cultivate with so much assiduity and pride?
 That may. perhaps, appear to be somewhat alarmist way of putting it.: but it is. nevertheless, justified by hard facts.
 Britian is honeycombed in many dis tricts to an extent which places the lives of large sections of the pooula- ton in jeopardy.
 Centuries of delving for coal and salt in the bowels of the earth have in parts of south Yorkshire, Lancashire the Midlands, Cheshire, and south Wales, left nothing but a diminish crust between the vault of heaven anG the cavernous depths below.
 This has led to subsidences of the earth, which has so recently as the past month or two been attended with loss of life and damage to property in the shape of collapsing houses and sinking undulating streets.
 Another source of danger is to be found in the numberless disused wells that have become covered with sIigat caking of soil and q treacherous growth of weeds. and which from time to time claim unsuspecting victims.
 But it is in congested towns and cities that a new danger is confronting us. The rapid growth of population and the necessity for obtaining means of ra2id transit have driven many to employ his ingenuity in devising me- thods of locomotion in the air above and in the earth beneath.
 London, to take the supreme eX- ample. is being burrowed from end to end with tubes and underground railways. l. may be contended that these tubes" are constructed at d depth so great as to preclude all possi- bility of danger; but already we have seen in the case of the Central Lon don railway bitter complaints of vii bration and damage to property on the part of the people living in houses im- mediately above the tube"
 This cause of complaint and other troubles still to be revealed will be multiplied as tubes" increase in num- Der.

A STORY OF wlTcHcRAFT.

A story of witchcraft in East Africa was told at a meeting of the Folklore society in London by Robert Webb. A man applied to a witch doctor for a powerful charm to kill an enemy. He was given a parcel to bury in the path down which the victim was to walk. To test it's efficacy the man buried it just outside the dcor of the witch doe tors hut. A female slave of the ma gician was the first to leave the hut. and on passing the spot fell dead. The witch doctor sued his client for the value of the dead slave and the case was tried before the native courts New York World.

SOMETHING WE ARE BEHIND IN

Had there been the same progress in roadmaking that has taken place in other lines, the United States would indeed occupy an enviable position among the nations. But such, unfor- tunately. is not the case. An anti quated system has been adhered to in farming communities generally that has prevented all progress in this di- rection. Education has been fostered
 great libraries have been founded, the country has reached pitch of pros perity hitherto unknown, but the sub ject of internal communication has been grossly neglected. There ought to be at once a great improvement in this respect if the country is to take it's proper place in the onward march of civilization.-Norr Herald.

Baltimore, Feb. 13.-There is some disappointment, especially among busi- ness men who have valuable property buried under the ruins, over the de- termination not to send federal troops here to police the fire district, but Gov ernor Warfield is firm in his insistence that the soldiers are not needed.
 The volume of business done in Bal timore this week has been tremendous. and possibly exceeded that of any month in it's previous history. At its meeting today it was the view of mem bers of the relief committee that Bal timore and Maryland is amply able to provide for all eXigencies, and that there will be no appeal for outside aid.
