Washington, Nov. 1.-THE annual
report of Chief Constructor Caps of
the United States navy department
shows the total strength of our navy
to be three hundred and twenty-five
vessels, including these now under
construction or are authorized to be
built. There are two hundred and
sixty now fit for service. Regarding
the construction of the battleship
Connecticut now going on in the New

former pays the same price for eight
hours work as the latter does for
nine.

BIRD KILLER PUT up GUN.
Oklahoma Man Finds He Has Been
Destroying Some Valuable
Friends.

One Of our best practical farmers re-
lated to us the other day how he came
to change his mind about killing birds,
says the Hennery, (Okla.) Clipper. He
said he formerly took great deal Of
pleasure with his gun and dogs. About
six months after coming to the terri
tory he told his wife he would go out
and kill a few quail. It was about four
O'clock, so calling his dogs he started
out on his own farm. n Gyif;
He soon shot three quail, and his
wife, knowing that II he got thoroughly
interested in the pursuit Of game he
would be out till long after supper
time. persuaded him to come back to
the house and they would have supper
when he could go again. Call right"
said the farmer; 81 will dress these
and we'll have them for supper.'',ss His
wife remarked 81 the ofsilness 81 tie
eraws of the birds, and on opening
one it was found packed hill. ofs chinch
bugs! Out Of curiosity they counted
and found over 400 sdeadschinch. bugs

& Said the farmer III relating the cir
cumstances to us: II just cleaned up
the gun and have not shot bird since,
snd II you'll come down to my place

birds coming to my farm you'll think

,; tsss in the Field. go ts

What color is least easily seen at a,
distance? One would naturally say,
some dull neutral tint, somber gray
or brown. says Success. This has been
the conclusion of most military men,
and our brilliant dress uniforms have
given way for practical campaigning
to khaki ana other dull colors: Il this
a mistaken Possibly SO. according to-
the results obtained in recent expert
ments in England. It has been found
there that masses of dull color are
very, muclmo conspicuous at dis
tance than mixtures of bright tints.I
For instance, a battery of field artilS
lery whose carriages and caissons were
decorated wiL.l stripes Of red. blue and
yellow could be made out with difh4
equity at "a thousand yards, Hhiles other
batteries painted a uniform brown or
drab were easily seen at great dis
tances. It would seem as If. on the
same principle, regiment Of gayly;
dressed troops might be less easily vis-
ibls than one wholly CARRIED in dulls

He Wanted Hi. Leg.

It will be q long time before the
Europeans and Chinese begin to I'M
derstand each other. A short time
back Chinese coolie met with an ac-
cident. He was taken to the European
hospital in Pekin, and it was there
found possible to save his life by
prompt amputation Of one OF his legs.
The glad news was carried to his rela-
tives. Without loss of time they pro-
cured supply Of arsenic. with which
the whole family proceeded to the sick
mans bedside. When their mutual
feelings had been fcelingly exchanged
the patient swallowed the arsenic and
died. Without wishing in any way to
hurt the feelings of the European doc
tors, he yet felt 1t incumbent upon him
self to reach Heaven beforesit should
be too late to claim the leg which had
preceded him there.-Smith's Weekly.

GOOD RECOMMENDATION"
Not Exactly What It Was Supposed
to Be, But It Brought Many
EavorS.

A Sioux chief, hearing that the great
father" was going to make an annuity
payment to his former enemies, but
present friends, the Crows, decided that
it was good time for him to return
visit which the Crows had made the
Sioux the summer before, relates
Youths Companion. In order that there
might be no difficulty on the trip, he
went to the agent and asked for pass
which would inform the public that he
was legally absent from the reserva-
ton; and also for paper recommend
ing him to the charities of the whites,
for the chief, being always hungry, was
firm believer in the Scriptural injunc-
ton to feed the hungry.
The agent gave him the pass, and hav-
ing been much harassed by his impor-
tunittes in the past for every conceivable
article that the agent might possess,
wrote: The bearer of this is Sioux
Indian of the Pine Ridge reservation. l
have never known him to do a lick of
work, or to buy anything he could beg,
even when he had money. am of the
OPAAAOA tudL d 1lILlS SIdFvdLIOu WOulU
do him good. He is the ornerest, LATEST,
dirtiest Indian on my reservation"
In month or two the chief returned
and entered the agents Office to report,
his face beaming with goodwill to his
superior. Glow, how, papa! Paper
heap good! Make white mans heart
good. Heap catch um shoes, coat, hat.
everything; heap eat; maybe so you
give me one more good paper next sum
mer!"
After this, in pidgin English, he told
the agent through the Interpreter that
every time the paper was presented to
white family they would laugh heartily
and always give him something, either
to wear or eat, and then good natured-
ly tell him to clear out. ~
It is probable that people had become
so accustomed to recommendations of
I different nature that the surprise of
seeing this always put them in good
humor, which turned out well for the
lazy chief.
