GENCHIS KHAN A JAPANESE
So Aver Historians Was the Asiatic
Conqueror of the Thirteenth
Century.

Some japanese historians aver that
Genghis Khan, the Asiatic conqueror in
the thirteenth century, was Japanese
by birth, states the New York Sun. This
is their account of it:
Gen. Gil Kio, pronounced Genghis Khan
in Chinese, was a younger brother of
Yoritomo Minamoto, the founder of the
MinamotO Shogunnate toward the close
of the twelfth century. Gen. Gi Kio was
valiant warrior. In many wars that
led to the final establishment of his
brothers powerful government at KAN
akura, about so miles from Toxic, in de-
fiance of the royal sovereignty, he had
done more than anybody else toward
helping his brother.
But. as is often the case, in the latter
period of the Minamoto Shogunnate,
there arose feud between the brothers.
This feud finally brought the partisans
OF each of the brothers into a deadly
struggle for mastery. Only with the aid
of HOBO, afterward the successor to
Minamoto Shogunnate, was Shotgun Yo-
ritomo able to drive his younger brother
northward.
Gen. Gi Kio, reduced to the state of
fugitive, crossed the Strait of Tsugaru.
accompanied by his trusted follower,
Benkei, the Hector of Japan. There
they remained for few years, evidently
with hope of recovering their loss.
But, finding at length that the pros
pect of recovery was meager, the fugi-
tvs conceived an idea of trying the fur
tune of war in the mainland of Asia.
They secured alarge vessel, sailed from
port in the promontory of Benkei,
named after the hero, and crossed the
Sea of Japan to Saghalien, whence they
entered to Manchuria.
The chief of the Mongols was one
day surprised to find a short. thick-set
man, apparently very young, presented
to him by his men. Though the Ian
guage OF Gen. Gil Kio was unintelligible
to the Mongols, yet the gestures with
which he made his audience understand
him won over completely the fancy OF
the aged chief, who afterward adopted
him as his son.
Gen. Gi Kio could write his name in
Chinese, as the japanese names are all
written in Chinese characters. Where
as in the Japanese pronunciation the
written name of the adopted son of the
Mongols was Gen. Gi Kio, in the Chi
nese it was Genghis Khan.
After many years of military practice
and after becoming familiar with the
customs and language of the Mongols,
as that is the characteristic of the Jap
anese race, Genghis Khan became the
idol OF the Mongoliar army, and. after
the death of the chief, the leader of the
tribes of Mongolia

PERILS OF THE SUBMARINE
Form of Naval Service That Is At
tended with Frightful
Dangers.

The narrow escape o. the crew OF
the submarine boat Porpoise from q
terrible death during some recent
practice off Breton's reef again brings
forcibly to mind the great perils which
attend submarine work AS far as
can be learned, says the Scientific
American, it seems that the Porpoise,
in charge OF two lieutenants and eight
men, took position off the lightship,
and there submerged, intending to
make run at the depth of 20 feet.
The type of submarine to which the
Porpoise belongs accomplishes it's
diving by maintaining a slight re-
serve OF buOyancy, and then setting
the Submerging rudders so that they
carry the boat beneath the water, the
depth of the submersion being deter
mined by the angle at which the rud
ders are set. 1t seems that, in the
present case, the rudders became
damned, so that they continued to
carry the vessel down until she rested
on the bottom at aNepth, according to
press reports, of l20 feet. To raise
blow out the water-tanks; but, CT
course, at this depth the water press
llre tending to crush the Porpoise was
considerably greater than that which
she was designed to stand, amounting
to 81 pounds to the square inch, or
about three and three-fOurthS tons TO
the square foot. 1t seems that when
fho ro1x oT he @,,;x, TO-, lie
were opened in the endeavor to ex-
pei the water from the tanks, it was
found that they would not operate.
Moreover, the enormous crushing
pressure upon the boat started leaks,
and the water began to come in
through the seams of the plating and
around the joints of the torpedo tube.
In this emergency, which was about
as terrible as could be imagined,
Lieut.. Nelson, who was in charge, util-
lied an air-pump worked by hand, 70
expel the water, and after long pc
Rod of hard work on the part of the
crew, the boat slowly rose to the sur
face and was towed into Newport.
II is supposed that the trouble was
due to the fact that the boat had not
beeu overhauled for cleaning for near
ly IL months, and that, consequently,
the sea cocks had become choked The
terrible plight in which the crew
found themselves brings to mind the
recent accident in the British fee;
when a submarine was run down and
lost with it's entire crew. If the ac-
cident proves to have been due to
negligence in the upkeep of the boat,
of course there will be nothing in
the incident to shake the faith OF
those who believe in the submarine as
such. On the other hand, the incident
serves 20 illustrate the special perilS
that attend this form of naval serv-
ice, unlt SIS it be conducted with ex-
treme caution and unremitting watch
fulness.

The Champion Swimmer.

With the exception of aquatic animals,
the bear is probably the strongest and
best swimmer among mammals. have
known the American black bear to swim
across small lakes and arms of the
larger bodies of water distance of at
least 20 miles, without break. and.
though many bears have. no doubt,
reached the Island of Anticosti, in the
Gulf of st. Lawrence. on ice foes. am
sure others have swum thither from the
mainland, travelling probably, in some
instances, 80 miles through the water.
No black bear will go yard out CT his
way to avoid water, but passes straight
through any river or lake that lies in its
way. The grizzly bearis mostly an inhab-
liant of dry, rocky tracts, but even griz-
lilies often take to the water for no per-
ceptible cause except love of it.-Paul
Fountain, in Longman's Magazine.

HELPFUL POULTRY HINTS.

Disinfectants are better than disease
The chicken coops should be large,

A boiled egg which is done will dry
quickly on the shell when taken from

Sawdust, shavings and excelsior are
Objectionable for nest material. Use

Wooden floors close to the ground
attract the damp from the earth, and
are always moist.
The dust heap aids materially to
cleanse the feathers and skin from YER

The eggs from hens by themselves
will keep good three times as long as
those that are fertile.
Sell off the surplus cockerels and do
not retain the late-hatched pullets, as
they will not lay until spring.
In feeding fowls at any time, whether
in confinement or not, give only so much
as they will eat up clean.-American
