Battle Ship Maine.

For 50, 900 the United States Battle
Ship Maine Salvage company, Of this
city, has boush: croaI tho Cuban gov
ernment the wreck Of the Maine in
Havana harbor. A cofferdam will be
built around the hulk, which will be
raised.
If any Of the "a bodies OF Amerio an
sailors which were not recovered after
the battle ship was destroyed on Feb
ruary 10, 1898, are discovered, they
will be removed and buried with due
honors in the United States, if the
navy department desires to take
charge Of them, or in Havana, if the
Washington government makes no
provision. The salvage company will
make arrangements for the sale of the
machinery and armor of the ship.
The people of Havana will be allow
ed to visit the hulk upon payment of
small fee.
1t is planned, after Cuban curiosity
is satisfied, to put new bottom on
the ship and tow it to Coney Island.
There it will be exhibited as curios-
ity to all who are willing to pay 25
cents admission or whatever fee the
managers may stipulate.
The Cuban government was ap-
preached many months ago by Mr.
Wycoff, representative of the sal
wage company. He suggested remov.
ing the wreck, which is serious i'm
pediment to navigation in Havana
harbor. The Cuban government ask
ed the United States if it still main.
tainod any claim upon the wreck Of
the Maine. Through the state depart
ment the American government re-
piled that whatever interest the Unit
ed States had held in the wreck of the
Maine had lapsed.
Acting upon this acknowledgment
the Cuban government on June 9
last concluded a contract with Mr..
Wycoff. He was authorized to utilize
in his wrecking operations a space Of
100 feet around the wreck. It was
stipulated that he should begin opera
tions within six months after the
signature of the contract.
There is also an idea if Cuba could
get S1 000 for tho hull tbo II,;.ol
States might have done as we'll or bet
ter. The steel machinery aud armor
is worth far more than that even at
the bottom of Havana harbor. The
machinery cost s735 900.

His Essay on Pants.

A boy has been suspended for
reading the following essay on
pants:
~Pants are made for men, and not
men for pants. Pants are like mo-
lasses = they are thinner in hot
weather and thicker in cold. The
man in the moon changes his pants
during the eclipse. Don't you 60 to
the pantry for pants; you might be
mistaken.
''Men are often mistaken in pants.
Such mistakes make breeches of
promise.
"Thcre has been much discussion
as to whether pants is singular or
plural. Seems to us when men wear
pants they are plural, and when
they don't wear pants it is singular.
"Alen go OIL a tear in pants, and
it is all right, but when the pants
go on tear it is all wrong."-Pitts-
burg Bulletin.

The Minister'S Dog.

MY father had small and beautiful
dog who rejoioed iii the name of FL
deity. He differed from other good
dogs only in being batter than others,
and in manifesting something othat
seemed like religious sensibility, or
q peculiar attachment to religious
places, people, and services. He. at
tended family worship with punctu-
ality and regularity that other mem
bers of the household might we'll have
initiated, and certainly did not sur
pass. If stranger were present-and
much company visited our house-the
dogs attention to him was regulated
by his taking the lead, or not, in the
religious worship of the household.
If the visitor at my Fathers request
conducted the worship, the dog at
once attached himself to his person,
and when he departed the dog escorted
him out Of the village, sometimes
going home With him to . ne;shbor;5s
town and making him a visit Of few
days. II the visitor. did net perform
any religious services in che house the

quiet during the sermon unless other
dogs below misbehavcd, in which case
he left his seat, and after quicling
the disturbance, resumed it. he was
equally devoted to the weekly prayer
meeting which was held from house
to house, the appointment being an
nounced on the Sabbath. He remom-
bered the evening and the place, and
was always present. AS it was not
agreeable to have dog at an evening
meeting in q private house he gas
confined at home. The next week he
went early, before the family had
thought to shut him up, and waited
for the hour and the people. He
knew the names Of the families where
the meetings were held and where
they lived, and could have gone to
any of them on an errand as easily and
correctly as child, and the only
knowledge he had Of the place of
meeting he got as the others did, by
hearing the notice on Sunday. These
habits of the dog were not the fruit of
education. On the contrary, pains
were taken to prevent him from in
dulging his religious preferences. He
did not manifest fondness for other
meetings or for any individuals out of
the family circle, except those whom
he recognized by their habit Of pray
ing, as the people in whom he was
specially interested.
My father was wont to relate many
other anecdotes of this remarkable
animal, and the relation of them al
ways caused his eyes to fill with tears.
He had strong impression that there
was something very mysterious about
this propensity Of the dog, and being
himself sternly orthodox divine he
never ventured to express the opinion
that the dog had moral perceptions
but always thought he believed SO.
