BONE LOST IN "a RECOVERED,
Part Of His Anatomy Re-
turned to Him.

After nearly 40 years, Jacob s. Miller,
an old soldier of Uniontown, Pa, lately
received a piece of bone taken from his
left shoulder by the late DR.. Norman 8.
Teal, of Kendallville, Ind, on July 81,
1864, at the battle of Peach Tree creek,
Atlanta, Ca, when Mr.. Miller was
wounded. The piece of bone, says the
Chicago Inter Ocean, is about three
inches long.
Although a terrific windstorm was
raging at the time, the surgeon operated
in the open air at night by torchlight.
DR.. Teal was much gratified by his sue
cess, and after the war, when he lectured
on surgery, he frequently exhibited the
piece of bone before students.
Nearly 80 years ago Mr.. Miller asked
DR.. Teal for the piece of bone, but the
doctor would not part with it. DR.. Teal
died about five years ago, and recently
his son, DR.. George A. Teal, consented to
return the bone to Mr. Miller.
Mr.. Miller was corporal in company

What Il wrong with the pictures
RUSSIA AS, NAVAL POWER.
ships Are Poorly Manned BY Country
Lads Through the Con.
script System.

An officer admitted to. the writer
when visiting on board Russian bat
tleship recently that large proper
ton of the men are not sailors. but
agricultural laborers drawn from in
land districts by the conservative sys-
tenn, says Casters Magazine. They
enter as young men-not, to be noted,
as boys-and serve from five to seven
years, and are then passed into the
reserve for further period of eight
to ten years. From the fact that these
men come from inland provinces 1t
follows that they have not the love of
the sea in their veins, and from the
fact that Russia is not an Industrial
nation it also follows that few of these
men have any mechanical knowledge.
Consequently the navy is manned
with the toughest material, men who
have to learn everything and unlearn
a great deal.
It is said that the standard Of gun
merry is good, but as no records of
any kind are published and the ships
in Europe are in full commission for
only about half the year and most Of
the ships in the far east have been
commissioned comparatively recently,
such assurances must be received with
reservations. No doubt the men pos
sess q high standard of courage and
iron nerves, but these qualities in
modern naval war cannot take the
place of continuous war training, win
ter and summer, which is the pro-
gramme of the British and American
and German fleets. - .
Russia has the ships, she is build
ing more of them, and she has a per-
sonnet Of 65,054, including many we'll
trained officers Of good attachments,
but what the fleet really represents in
naval power is problem which only
war can solve. 1t may be that it will
be found as seems probable, that
while the Russian authorities have
been able to add to the size of the
fleet with marvellous rapidity they
have been unable to supply trained
men. In these days, especially where
the aid Of foreign yards is involved,
it is possible to obtain ships at short
notice, but trained officers and men
cannot be so quickly supplied.
Under the circumstances in which
the Russian feet has been created
there is consequently good cause to
wonder whether it will prove in action
as formidable as it appears on paper.

be performed wonderful acrObatic feat,
something no other bird ever dreamed
of doing. He rose in the air to great
height, and dropped straight as an ar
row to the branch he had selected, break
ing it with his weight and catching it
before it reached the ground.
While Zozoka was busy breaking the
tree branches, his mate searched the
shore and river banks. She brought long
streamers of seaweed, red and brown,
green sea grass and wisp or two of salt
hay from the marshes. With these she
wove a new lining for her home, and
soon it held two spotted eggs, a little
larger than hens.
When the babies appeared there was
work indeed. Zozoka would swoop
down, dive into wave and come out
on the opposite side, with a catfish in
his claws. Before starting for his home
up the river he always turned the fish
edgeways to the wind, for he was a wise
bird, and knew that if he carried it
broadside out it would present larger
surface to the winds resistance.
Before a week had passed they were
famous flyers. To learn to fish success
fully was very difficult indeed.
First the young hawks fshed almost
wholly in the river, not venturing to try
their luck in the ocean, but one day the
bold son flew far out over the breakers,
farther than he had ever been before.
Suddenly there was a splash and he
saw great fish gambling below. Paus-
ing moment to take good aim he shot
downwards, struck the fish and firmly
imbeded his claws. He attempted to
rise, but to his dismay was drawn down,
down. deeper and deeper beneath the
water. He struggled desperately to dis
entangle his claws, but now his lungs
were filling with water; his strength was
ebbing His struggles grew more and
more feeble. His ambition had cost him
his life.
The next morning, when the hawks
few seaw ard, they saw q great Goldfish
lying on the beach, with q dead young
osprey grimly clutching its ksck.-Bos-
ton Globe.

WHEN ZOZOKA COMES.
The Story or the Fish Hawks Life and
Ways Told for the Benefit Of
Our. Young Readers.

Near the river mouth three children
were at play on the sand, an Indian lad,
a small American girl and her brother.
Suddenly the Indian stood up, and, shad-
ing his eyes with his hand. gazed long
toward the southwark ."Zozoka comes, !"
he said; plenty fish,"
"Where?" cried the white children,
eagerly scanning the sea and sky. +
His wife, too; it is good,' said the
Indian. 1.-The Great Spirit smiles on my
people. He sends Zozoka to tell us
that we shall have big catches of fish,
all we can eat and plenty to dry for the
cold moons"
The children could see two birds COM
ing from the southwark. Fascinated,
they watched till over their heads swept
a pair of magnificent ospreys. "Fish-
hawks" they cried in the same breath.
"Zozoka," said the Indian lad. "They

A CLEAN of silver showed just beneath
the rivers blue. Like a shot the fish
hawk dropped and was half buried in the
water before he rose, holding fish in
his strong talons.
Mounting with few graceful sweeps
Of his splendid wings, which spread over
five feet, he seated himself on his favor
lite branch, and tearing the fish into
pieces, devoured it with great relish,
For a fortnight this devoted couple
spent many busy hour searching for
material to repair their home. A few
rods from the bank was dead tree, and
Mr.. Fish-hawk decided that some of its
branches would be exactly right for
propping up the sagging east side. Then

Barstow slipped the letter back into
his pocket, curling the whip once
more out in search of impossible speed
Ten minutes passed. and with them
three Of the remaining II miles. Leigh
ton was now but nine miles ahead;
and the state line, beyond which Cum
ningham's authority as sheriff would
for time be null, was five. once
across the line and he could snap his
fingers at the pursuer. He glanced
back. The automobile had covered one
half of the distance and was coming
swiftly and smoothly. The horses were
breathing hard. Another three miles,
with no change, and the race would be
ended-lOst.
Involuntarily Barstow leaned for
ward, as he often did in moments OF
suspense on the race. track, when
hands turn meant win or lose. Then
his face blanched. $50 .-''.
A COW was walking deliberately
from the roadside growth, and along
here the road was narrow. Barstow
rose to his feet and reached forward as
far as he could, his whip in the air. A
spill and smash was better than miss
ing a chance. As they swept upon the
COW, the whip came down viciously,
the animal threw up her head, thereby
saving it from the rushing wheels
which just grazed the skin.
But as though ashamed Of this slight
concession, the cow snorted and
walked quickly to the middle of the
road and there stopped. Barstow
heard yell behind him. The cow had
lowered her head to the automobile in
a manner that threatened dire conse-
quences to both. Cunningham yelled
once more, savagely; but the cow re-
NAMED obdurate. Then Cunningham
stopped. When the animal was hustled
unceremoniouslys aside and the machine
again started, 1t had lost the three
fourths of mile previously gained.
Twenty minutes afterward Barstow
swept triumphantly across the line and
turned his horses to one side. Sixty
seconds behind him Numbered the au-
tomobile. AS the machine stopped be-

ST. LOUIS FAIR GREATEST.
Buildings Far Larger and Area Great
er Than That Of the Chicago
Expedition.

Tie Louisiana Purchase exposition
at St. Louis will cover larger area,
entail larger investment Of capital
and afford more diversified display
Of exhibits than its last predecessor in
the international line in the United
States, the Chicago fair Of 1893. The
differences illustrate, in most cases,
the vast growth of the country in
wealth, industry and resources during
the past eleven years.
The mines and mining building in
St. Louis, for instance, will cover an
area Of 525 by $50 feet, while the
mines and mining building in Chica-
go was $50 by 700. On the other
hand, rejecting the great growth in
the use of electricity, the St. Louis
building will have an area of $50 by
CPS feet. The electricity building in
Chicago covered an area of 700 by 345
feet.
The agricultural buildings in Chi
cago was 500 by 800 feet in area; in
St. Louis it will be 500 by 1000. The
transportation building in Chicago
covered an area of 420 by 700 feet;
the St.. Louis building will cover 425
by $50. The United States govern
ment building in Chicago covered an
area Of $50 by 42O feet; in st. Louis
the government building will cover
200 by $50.
The managers Of the st. Louis ex-
position have made smaller provision
for the exhibit Of live stock than the
managers Of the Chicago exposition,
and have devoted less area to forestry
exhibits, too; but practically in every
other respect the st. Louis exposition
will be very far in advance Of that in
Chicago. not only in size, but in cost,
as well.
The approximate cost of the whole
St. Louis fair will be $5O,0OO,O00. The
Chicago worlds fair cost 5000, 900,
and the receipts from all sources
were about S15.000.000.

deer at the time it was found, and had
not this been true, the hunters would
not have taken it for deer. Its white
coat made it far more conspicuous than
the remainder of the herd, and it is per-
haps for this reason only albino deer

The albino deer bears exactly the
same relation to the deer family that the
albino of the African race does to the
human kind. Aside from it's white coat
and pink eyes, it is like all other deer;
possibly its fur is softer and more silky.
The specimen found in the pine forests
of the Canyon mountains will be made
a part of the exhibit of albino animals at
the Smithsonian institution.

ALEINo DEER KILLED.
Its Coat Was Pure White, Its Eyes
Pink and Its Fur Of SOftest
and Silky Texture.

An albino deer, with coat as white
as the drifting SHOWS, eyes delicate
pink, and with tread as soft ami dis
Greet as an elk fawn, was killed In the
Canyon mountains of southern Oregon
recently. It was one of the very few al
bino deer ever seen in the mountains of

them, usually separate from the main
herds, and at various times during the
early days; but they were too shy and
discreet to be approached near enough
for a shot. $50

A WONDERFUL SUBSTANCE.
eral Kingdoms Formed by As-
beStOs-Its Uses.

Asbestos is one of the most remark
able substance found in nature, and 10
classified by biologists as peculiar spe-
cies of the ,hornblende family OF miner
ais. It's composition is chiefly SILICA,
magnesia, alumina, and ferrous oxide,
and consequently understandable, hence
its name. The fibers formed by chemical
combination are perfectly smooth, and
in this respect are different from all 9TH
er known f1bers, says the Scientific
American.
Periodically, it IL the link which
completes the chain between the vege-
table and mineral Kingdoms, and is in
fact meteorological vegetable possess
ing the curious properties found in both,
for it is at once fibrous and crystalline,
elastic and brittle as thistledown when
treated mechanically.
Added to this, it's fibers, soft, white
and delicate, have, by their inherent
quality of indestructibility, withstood
the action of the elements since the
world began; and through all the count
less ages, during which the hardest rocks
surrounding it have been reduced, this
meteorological mystery has remained in
tact, having successfully resisted the
assaults of fire, acids and time. Asbestos
is found widely distributed throughout
the world, although the principal sup
ply of crude asbestos suitable for the
manufacture of fireproof cloths and cur
tains comes from Canada, about Is miles
from Quebec.
The Italian mineral has fine, silk.
like fiber, but is lacking In the essen
tial characteristic of strength. Tho
product obtained from South Carolina
has soft, woody, yellowish fiber, which
quickly powders under pressure. The
South African asbestos, as one might
naturally infer is of dark slate or
black color, with exceptionally long.
strong fibers, but owing to it's stif
and horny texture, it cannot be manu-
featured into a fine fabric, hence the
superiority of the Canadian asbestos,
and it's large consumption in the United
States.
The mining of asbestos differs radical
ly from the mining of other minerals,
since no shafts are sunk, but excavations
are made in the open, somewhat after
the manner of stone quarry. Canadian
asbestos, however is found In narrow
veins or seams about an inch and
quarter in thickness, and embedded in
rock which is easily severed from it.
The strata of asbestos, which may be
vertical or horizontal, are found in
practically detached deposits, and are
as elusive as those of zinc-bearing ore.
and can only be determined by exploring
for them.
The rock to which the mineral Is at
tached shows on fresh fracture serpen-
tine mineral of green shade contain
ing finely divided particles of chronic
and magnetic iron. The asbestos on
cleavage presents brilliant. dark
green surface by reflected light, but the
fibers after they are detached are per-
fectly white. The act of separating the
mineral from its matrix of rock is termed
hand cobbing," and after this process
the mineral is shipped to various fac
tories insthe United States.

although their necks Strengthened a
little, the speed did not increase. 1t
could not on this road, with an ordi-

= He gave quick glance over his
shoulder. An automobile was just
turning a curve of the road, three
fourths of a mile behind. His eyes
studied it's occupants keenly.
Eyes, that's the sheriff all right"
he thought, grimly. "No one could
mistake those shoulders and that cow
boy hat: and he's head above his
companion. I wonder who the COM
panion is-some fellow he's sworn in
as deputy, likely. And the automobile
is Carson's. No other could slip over
the ground the way that does. sup
pose Cunningham has deputized It

isn't back there. Reckless as the sheriff
is after game, don't. think he'll take
over three miles out of a strange ma
chine, and it's only 20 to Leighton,
with straight road and good start
and my span fresh. Yes, it'll be a
race"
But ten minutes later he could see
that the automobile was slowly, but
surely. gaming on him, and at the end
of half an hour, with eight of the 20
miles passed, the automobile had co.,
cred one-third of the distance between
them. The horses were now breathing
heavily and their speed decreasing;
the machine was coming on more rap
idly. Barstow glanced over his shoul-
der, studying the ground critically,
then allowed his gaze to fall back to
his pursuer The sheriff was notion
ing frantically for him to stop. Bar
stow grinned satirically.
mot just yet, Cunningham" he
thought. THE race is getting too in

stake involved. Any other time I'd be
glad to accommodate you. Just now
I'm going to Leighton, and with good
luck shall have barely 20 minutes to

There was long stretch of clear
road ahead, with the horses going
steadily. He made turn with the
reins about his wrist and drew a let
ter from his pocket. 1t had been given
him ny the mail carrier only 40 min
utes before, just as he was starting out
with his span, and he had read it at q
glance and then dashed away on his
wild race to Leighton. He now swept
the lines with another glance, his face
glowing.
