Handles Appetite.

Handel was blessed with a wonder
full appetite, and many are the anus
ing accounts. true or otherwise, as TO
the means taken by its owner for Its
Indulgence. His gastronomic propensi-
ties were frequently the object OF sa'
tires. and in one caricature the COM
poser is represented as sitting on a
beer barrel. \ ham and a pair OF
fowls are attached to the pipes of an
organ. a 't1rbot lies upon a pile OF
books. and the floor of the apartment
Is strewn with oyster shells. IL Is
more likely that his adversaries IN
vented and propagated many OF the
wild stories concerning his eating and
drinking powers than that they had
any foundation in literal fact. No one
would probably order a dinner Tor
three persons for instance, and be-
cause 1t was being kept back for the
company TO arrive blurt out to the as
tonished waiter: Il am de company
Bring ND de timer bretlssimo."

SnfpinR In Warfare.

The method of sniping in warfare Is
ns follows: Three men set out, two
in one direction and one In another.
The single man, when he believes he Is
IN the neighborhood Of the enemy, lets
of his rife, no matter in what direc-
ton. and thus draws the fire of the
sentry. Immediately the two other
stalkers fire into the space lit up by
the discharge. When this goes on, all
round the camp the result Is constant
alarm at night time. Soldiers arc
warned not to reply to a sniper, but
the temptation is we'll nigh Irresistible
Their exertions, however, meet with
little success, for snipers generally
stalk the sentries from behind stones

At one time there was much com
mercial and social intercourse between
Ireland and Spain. Galway and Wa
terford were the chief Irish ports en-
gagged In this trade. To this day the
Spanish type of beauty is discernible
among the Galway girls. Probably the
most famous result Of the blending OF
Spanish and Irish blood was the &C
tress and dancer Lola Montez. Her
true name was Marie Dolores Eliza Ro
sauna Gilbert. She captivated European
monarchs as we'll as popular audi
ences and was for a year or so practi
cally the ruler of Bavaria until a revo
luton compelled her to fee.

THE FINEST.
Jiu Jitsu Man Was Too
Much For the
Police.

A. Ono, a Japanese master of Jiu-
Jitsu, demonstrated to a large gather
ing of Honolulu people that, with his
science of self defense, small man rs
capable of handling men of twice has
size.
Sheriff Henry went to the Woods
Institute of Physical Culture with the
two largest men on the local force last
evening and the way Ono handled them
was wonderful. Palenapa, a giant in
size and weight was a mere toy in this
man s hands Time after time he was
put to the floor in such way that he
was helpless. Mounted .Patrolman
Cook, a six-footer, was the next vic
tim and he also proved an easy mark.
Several times Ono threw the large po-
liceman over his shoulder and he struck
the floor with much force.
The local Jiu-jitsu champion had a
try-out with the newcomer and his
fate was the same as that of the po-
licemen.
1t was suggested that Ono try MS
science against Prof. Woods, who
agreed to use the American science of
boxing. Ono would not agree to this,
probably knowing that he would get
the worst OF such an encounter.
Ono is on his way to West Point,
where he viii instruct in this latest
mode of self f-defense.

WRITER FRESH FROM
MANCRU BATTLEFIELDS

Richmond Smith, one of the Asso-
ciated Press war correspondents, is on
the Korea and has been putting in his
time seeing the sights. Mr.. Smith was
at Port Arthur and saw most of the
fighting He says that the japanese
lost, IN killed and wounded, not less
than 10000 men.
General Nogi, according to the cor
respondent, is a very mild-appear1ng
man. He was a brigade commander
before Port Arthur ten years ago ana
captured the most important Chinese
position. Ordinarily he is soft of
speech and easy of manner, but when
his temper is aroused he turns into a
cyclone.
1t is a curious commentary on the
rapid advance of the japanese nation,
remarked Mr.. Smith, that Nogi began
his military career as a Samurai in
armor, carrying two-handed sword.
He is now one of the world s most up
to-date commanders.
Mr.. Smith says that he and the
other correspondents were given every
facility at Port Arthur to see the
fighting
