WHERE BRET HARTE LIVED.
Women Always Liked Him a Lot OF
Else They Hated Him.

Else They Hated Him.
We drove down the mountain In the
moonlight and saw coyote cub play
Ing with his shadow, and we drank the
deep, sweet breath of the pines, and
Truthful James told me about Bret
Harte.
He was a slim, little, black-eyed
teacher when l knew him." said Truth
tul James. He taught over in Copper
town then. They named it Copperopo-
lis when they built 1t, same as they
named Jimtown jamestown, but we all
called 1t Coppertown. 1t was a lively
place then, was Coppertown. Ten ho-
tells, three banks and faro places till
you couldn't count 'em all. There was
a lot happening in Copper. Half of
the plots of Bret Hartes stories grew
up right in that town"
What kind of man was Bret
Harte himself-in character, l mean"
Nice enough, l reckon" said Truth
full James. Not much of a favorite
among the boys. Too quiet and he
had kind OF forgetful way Of smiling
into your face, as If he had forgotten
all about you, and didn't care how soon
you found 1t out.
Women all liked him a lot, or else
they hated him. l guess most of them
liked him In those days"
The society upon the Stanislaus?"
Eyes, that was true enough.
"Abner Dean lives over at Angels
yet, but you don't want to mention
that chunk Of sandstone to him.
1T seems to kind of rile him some
way.
Lots Of the boys are little touchy
on the Bret Harte subject. He hit a
little too near the truth, l guess.
'Now. In my case 1t is different 1
don't mind being handed down to pos
terity as bearded rutfian that couldn't
spell; they did call me Truthful you
know. 1 don't know why, but what
don't like Is making me out to be
narrowminded crank with a preju-
dice against foreigners.
Nov, l have nothing in the world
against the Chinese. They are peace
able, fairly honest and very useful
class of citizens, but 1t Is little rough
to make me out sitting down to So
ciaI game with yellowfaced, pig
tailed, grinnlng Chinaman, as If he
were an equal, by Georger'-The

Cheap Poultry House.

Tho illustration will show that even
o,ono boxes may be utilized for poul-
.rv house where only limited num-
her of fowls or chicks are to be ac-
commodated; or with a number of
houses thus built, it may be possible
70 furnish comfortable quarters for
tho usual number of birds kept on an
average farm. U. r, Fishel of Indiana
tells Poultry News OF his twenty col
onv house constructed of piano boxes
He says:
1--WE take two upright piano boxes
and four pieces of timber 2x4 and 10
feet long; we take the piano boxes
housekeeping the fronts, backs, ends
and bottoms all together. We place
three of the 2x4s on the ground and
Law on these 2x4s, mailing them solid,
making the bottom of the house (some
will have to be sawed off of the 2X4s).
The four ends of the two boxes will
make the entire back of the house,
while the fronts will make each end
of the house and the remaining lum-
Der will be used in the front of the
house The three remaining pieces of
2x4 are used as rafters to nail roofing
to. New ship lap lumber will have
to be bought for the roof, after which
the same is covered with Neponset
Red Rope roofing paper. Two pairs
of 5-inch strap hinges, one hasp and
piece of 1-inch netting to cover opening
of Sx10 light sash completes your
building, making a poultry house 8X10

IDEAS IN BOAT BUILDING.

Constructors Find New Methods of In
creasinR the Speed of Water Craft.
Granville H. Rood, Of Washington, a
boat builder Of wide reputation, has re-
Gently succeeded in upsetting all rules
Of steamer construction heretofore ac-
copied as inviolable by the builders
OF the world generally. Ordinarily 1t
has been the custom to place the pro-
pellers aft Of the stern, but this icono-
elastic inventor proposes to locate them
well under the hull, where they will
work, according to his calculations in
a body Of comparatively dead water
In torpedo boats and similar speedy
small craft the propeller shafts have
been extended rearwardly of the stern
ject-namely, to place the propellers
In dead or undisturbed water away
from the wash and swirl caused by the
agitation Of the water through which
the hull has passed.
The blade propeller Is also to be
abandoned, being replaced by a spiral
blade, which makes at least one com
plete turn about the shaft, it being
assumed that this construction will
result in greater efficiency by the
avoidance of the pounding, lifting Of
water and the cayitation inherent in
the customary form of propeller. Maxi
mum carrying capacity and speed
with minimum engine power Is also
sought by designing the hull along the
familiar scow lines, resulting in a very
light draft.
1t Is asserted that the engine power
necessary to obtain a predetermined
speed in a boat Of given length Is d.
rectly proportional to the depth Of the
hull, and, moreover, light-draft de-
sign Of hull lends Itself readily to the
use of multiple propellers, located par
allel to its length in a comparatively
undisturbed body Of water. Finlike
keels are provided, which serve the
double purpose Of supplying and car
rying the several propeller shafts and
of protecting the latter from injury by
striking Instructions or fouling by en-
tanglement with weeds or grasses.
