5. JOHNSON'S
PROUDEST DAY
Continued from Page l.,

AT length with an agonfzed sigh,
Sam Johnson a bullet let fly
Designed for the center bull's-eye,
Which landed ten inches too high.
Each warrior of this doughty crew
His head horizontally drew,
With an aim so exact and so true
That the marker in terror withdrew
1t grieves me to state that the brace
Who competed in this gallant race
Had left on the targets broad face
Of only one bullet a trace
Yet our boys were awarded the score
The bullet of Sam made a bore;
Through this hole, all the witnesses
swore
Every other man sent ball more.
Mr.. White also sprung more poetry
with reference to Sam as follows:
SAM JOHNSON, o MY JOE, SAM
Sam Johnson, my Joe, Sam, when first
1 saw thee stand,
Within the Palace walls, Sam behind
those bags of sand,
owned thee for deadly shot at tar
gets dead or live,
And knew the .'bulrs-eye" lost it's sight
whenever you let drive.
All, those were strenuous days, Sam, of
mounting guard and drill,
OF watching for that martinez, the Col
onel, known as BILL
You then We're younger, Sam. than now,
in fact were quite a beau,
But now you're turning devilish grave,
Sam johnson, o my Joe.
What is it brings upon thy face that
carking look of care?
What makes your speech so often drift
into an English ''swear?"
You We're our only officer at Seagirt
by the sea
Who won a medal and retrieved the
fame of Hawaii-Nei.
Sam Johnson, o my Joe. Sam. at Sea-
girt by the sea,
I still can see them wigwagging the
message back to thee:
Mary seventy-fouri'' again you phone
the marker wigwags this,
Sam Johnson, O my Joe, Sam, you've
scored another miss"
Sam Johnson, o my Joe, Sam, that L
should see the hour
When seveMy-four should hoodoo thee,
of rifiemen the flower,
Oh! when to Seagirt by the sea again
we let thee go,
Pick out a target you can hit, Sam
Johnson, o my Joe.
Mr.. White then, amid silence
and with considerable ceremony,
Capt. Johnson with a toy
popgun.
The POSTMASTER then presented in
The same way a toy poodle dog, 1.-THE
Watchdog of the Treasury to Vice
Chairman Adams. Mr.. Adams respond
ed gracefully, saying that he was glad
% be present and to add his little mite
% his belief in the integrity of Mr..
Johnson. A toy pistol was presented
o Jack Lucas, something with which
lie could break into the treasury when

CuriosItfes About Fish Scales.

The thin. silvery coating OF fish
scales derives its lustcr from many
minute crystals Of lime. mixed with a
peculiar substance called "guanin."
This coating OF silver crystals is very
easily rubbed Off the scales, and In the
case Of European species OF carp
known as the bleak" the crystals are
so numerous that metallic pigment,
commercially known as argentine" is
made from them. The large giohular
glass beads. known rs German" or
Roman" pearls. are coated OH the in.
side with this substance. In soma Spc.
cies Of fish with luSterleSS scales the
silvery lining is found on the inside or
the body. y well known example OF
this Is seen i'm the common Smelt.

Accepting the daily dietary stand

lions rs 10 what people are accustomed
20 consume. il Is plain that the average
man doing from light 10 moderate
muscular work must take each day
approximately 1l6 grams OF proteid
matter Us grams Of nitrogen. with
sufficient fat and carbohydrate TO Yield
a total fuel value OF 1850 large Gallo
rics. The usual proportion OF carbohy-
drate mostly starchy food is about
6o0 grams 10 5000 grams OF fat. In
other words. the average man needs,
according 10 the above hypothesis. APP
-proNimately 12O grams OF proteld, 600
grams OF carbohydrate and 80 grams
OF fat for his daily ration. In order 10
obtain these amounts Of nutrients he
would require per day three-fourths OF
a pound OF ordinary roast beef. one
pound OF boiled potato. one-half pound
OF white bread and one-fourth OF Il
pound Of butter. Naturally much
greater variety OF food might be adopt
Ell with the same nutritive values as
the above. but these figures Will suf-
fee 10 give some impression of the
quantities OF ordinary cooked food

and the total fuel value called for by

\ more elaborate diet. one I'm large
measure free from meat and having es-
sentially the same content OF nitrogen
and with n total fuel value OF approx
mately 1900 calorIes, would be as fol-

pie sauce, eight ounces; apple tapioca
pudding. twelve ounces; fried sweet po-
tatO. eight ounces; fried bacon. one
ounce; fruit jam, four ounces; coffee.
one and one-half pints. and tea. three
fourths Of pint. Such Il diet. owing
TO its vegetable nature and lack Of con-
centration, is naturally quite volumi-
nous. y greater concentration of diet
is easily obtained by replacement Of
a portion Of the vegetable matter by
meat and this the ordinary man, with
his highly developed palate, usually
prefers 10 do because of the increased
flavor which his acquired taste now
calls for. Further. the resources at

usually adopted throughout the civiliz-
ell world.-RusSen II. Chittenden in

COFER AND
PINKHAM LEAVE
FEDERAL QUARANTINE OFFICER
AND BOARD OF HEALTH PREsI-
DENT GO TO HILO.

DR.. L. E. Cofer, federal quarantine
officer, and President Pinkham OF the
Board of Health, left today for Hilo,
to look into health conditions there. 1t
is about a year since Cofer went to
Hilo, and he will investigate the work
of his department, while Pinkham will
look into Board of Health matters.
Hilo is the port from which several
vessels We're recently quarantlned at
San Francisco, as announced by cable.
Il have not received any explanation
of why the San Francisco authorities
took alarm suddenly" said Plnkham.
II imagine that it was because some
one from Hilo has been doing some
talking without knowing very we'll
what he was talking about. Hilo is a
small town, and perhaps the mainland
authorities became alarmed at rum
Ors."
