JAPAN'S FIRST IRONCLAD.
Har Crew Made a Brave Start, But Couldn't Stop Her Till Fires
 Went Out.

That the role of Japan as mar itime power is a new one is brought strongly to our notice by recalling the quite well authen' ticated story of the first adven' ture of the first Japanese iron clad, says Country Life.
 She was built in England. While she was building her crew were also in England practicing, in other ironclads how to drive her. When she was finished the Japanese seamen took possession of her, bravely maintaining that they were fully equal to the task of starting her.
 And that, to be sure, they were, for she steamed out finely. The trouble only began when she came back to port again. Then, when they wanted to slow her down and stop her, they were unable to do so.
 They had to put her out to sea again and go on steaming her about till her fires went out, her engines stopped for want of steam, and she could be lowed in
 From this to having the bes, mentally equipped crews, perhaps of any nation seems a long step but it has been very rapid one.

SNAILS OVERRUN A CITY.
xnhabitants of Indiana Town OrgaA-
 iEe Night Hunts and XIII the Pests with Salt.

A plague of snails, or slugs, as the af% fiicted people call them, lately struck Jeffessonville, Ind, in full force, and instances are cited where persons have been compelled to move. Their first appearance was after the flood of Feb ruary, 1884. but they have never been so bad as at present. The pests are not exactly like snail, but resemble them in some respects. They have no shells and are night raiders, says the New York World.
 At no place in the city where the food water failed to reach has one of the slugs been seen, but in the most fashionable quarters the pests are Hanlsrogs: lp size they range from "a quarter to an inch in diameter. It is not until ten o'clock at night that the snails come out of their hiding places. under houses. and slug hunting parties have become fashionable.
 Armed with lamp and cup of salt. the people hunt for the pest. aud when a slug is found it's days are nun bered. 1. dor the smallest particle of salt means death The more salt the quicker the work.
 They leave behind slimy track. that furnishes a clew to their movements. In some places fine carpets have been ruined, the slimy tail eating like acid

MOCCASINS FOR SOLDIERS.
Inquiries Made by Representatives of Powers at War for "Bangor's
 Golden Slippers"

Inquiries have been received in Bangor, Me-, from persons sup. posed to represent either the Rus sian or the Japanese government concerning prices for moccasins in large quantities and the earli- est date of delivery at Atlantic or Pacific ports. It is supposed that the moccasins are wanted for sol. diers campaigning in Manchuria- For that purpose they would be eminently suitable, says the New York Sun.
 The moccasin is the favorite footwear of the lumbermen of Maine, and was first made in Ban gor in 1851. At first only one or two styles were made, but now moccasins are manufactured in great variety, ranging from slip pers for women and children soft as kid and embroidered with beads-to the stout boots and lar. rigans of the Penobscot lumber men.
 Much of the sewing is still done by hand, being let out by the piece to French Canadian families in the neighborhood of Bangor. All moccasins are made of a specially prepared leather, rendered gold en yellow by peculiar process of tanning.
 The common moccasin is not proof against water, but it has room for several pairs of stock ings, and that is a strong point in it's favor. For keeping the feet warm and dry in cold weather the moccasin has no equal.
 The greater part of the mecca sin leather still comes from the place of it's origin, Pawtucket, R. l., although a considerable quantity is tanned in Bangor. Some years ago Bangor men es' tablished factories at Red Wing, Minn., and Racine, Wis.
 The dainty bath slippers, which are not really moccasins, but are made from soft elk skin, are in great demand at home and abroad, aid are especially favored by the ladies of Japan, to which country Bangor sends large quantities. It now seems likely that "Bangor's golden slippers" as moccasins are called, may be worn by the con tending armies in Manchuria.
