SPOON TWO CENTURIES OLD.
Nonpareil Correspondent From Deni-
son Tells of Interesting Relic of
1910 Found Near Denison.

The Sunday Nonpareil contains an
interesting item from Denison concern
ing SILVER spoon discovered by Mrs.
Henry Otto, of Goodrich township. We
quote from the Denison dispatch:
Mrs. Henry Otto, living near Deni-
son. in Goodrich township. unearthed
valuable relic in the shape of solid
silver spoon, which, from the wear
stamped on the back of the handle,
shows that the spoon is 235 years old.
The date, 1870, is still plain, as also are
the initials &c. H = which had been
stampedin the handle with some sharp
instrument, resembling pin holes. The
spoon is of solid silver and as thin as a
piece of tin. and can be easily bent in
any shape. The spoon has become tar
nished by being buried under the
ground, but little rubbing brought it
back to its natural color. MIR Otto has
lived on the farm for the past twenty
years, and just how the spoon came
there may never be known. 1t is
thought, however. that it was heri-
tage of someone who occupied the farm
in an early day, or it was lost by some
parties emigrating through the country
before white men set foot m Crawford
colnty soil.
Mrs Otto prizes her find very highly
and would no doubt regret to give it up
should the rightful owner ever be found.
The spoon hears no other marks, save
on the bowl part, which appears to have
been bitten by some animal, which
slightly bent the bowl.

HEROISM OF

MANY INSTANCES OF 1T SHOWN
IN BATTLE OF SEA
OF JAPAN.

Victoria, B. c., June 2o-Many tales
of mutiny during the battle Of the Sea
Sea of Japan on the part of the sea-
men of the Russian ships are told,
with other incidents of the battle,
in Japanese newspapers received by
the steamer Athenian today. Two gun
crews of the Dimitri Donskoi which
had been tOrpedOe1 at night, mutinied
when the presence of the enemy was
suspected and were only kept at their
spiritless tasks under threats of being
Donskoi said the attitude of many on
that vessel under fire was cOwardly
in the extreme, and when the facts
in official records were known, many
prisoners now in Japan would not seek
to return to Russia at the end of the
war. Survivors praised the work of
the Japanese torpedo craft, which
though the Russians were diligent in
the use of searchlights, uaringly har-
raised the Russians and with cunning
tactics did effective work. The Off
GERS were determined to achieve some
thing to earn the admirals cOmmenda
ton on this occasion or die. One in
stance recorded of the deeds of the
torpedo craft shows that one of the
torpedo vessels lost was disabled at
distance of 400 yards from a Rus
sian battleship and. another torpedo
craft darted in and took off her crew
while she was in a sinking condition,
without sustaining loss from the Rus
sian fire.
The destroyer Sazenami won furth-
er renown. 1t was she that forced the
Russian destroyer Byedovi at Ulleyong
and captured ROjestvensky and staff
The Byedovi fought desperately. but
was finally compelled to surrender.
Commander Tsunezo has been given
the order of the Kite for his capture.
When captured Rojestvensky wore
no tunic. He was in his shirt with
a mangled arm swinging at his side.
He is resting at the SasebO hospital
near the captain and vice captain OF
the Admiral Nashkimoff, who were
picked up on driftwood by fishermen
with their clothes shredded and their
faces burned with powder. Many of
the bodies are badly torn by gun
wounds, some terribly burned. 1t is
significant that the modest Japanese
casualties occurred on Togo's flagship.
the Mikasa. which had eight killed and
IS wounded.
The fog which prevailed on May q
in the straits of Tsushima induced
Rojestvensky to attempt the passage.
The battle was commenced with a
shot from a Pinch gun from the
Nicholas. The Russians were in such
faulty formation that decentralization
soon followed the cannonading. which
begun as the Japanese surrounded
them.
1t was shown, according to advices
by the Athenian that the Oslyabia
and Suvaroff were sunk by Japanese
guns They owed their fate to the
heavy sea running at the time, the
Japanese having long practiced firing
in heavy seas.
The battleship Orel, which surren-
dered and was brought to Maizuru
dockyard, had 40 shot holes in her
hull. Blood and mangled flesh was
scattered on the decks and many
corpses were buried at sea.

MUSIC FROM THE HlLLa

1 walk along the country road
And in the distance see
The hills that rise like sentinels
To point out God to me;
And on the quiet summer air
Angelic music floats
The music from the distant hills,
Seraphic, joyous notes.
Alone l walk, yet not alone,
For he is by my side;
The music from the distant hills
Reminds me of my Guide.
This Friend, the best l ever knew.
Enjoys that music grand;
He knows the singers and the songs:
He rules in that glad land.
I long to gaze across those hills;
strain my eyes to see
The ones I loved who went before
And there await for me.
And some day--sooner than think
I'll learn that music sweet,
And sing it to my dearest Friend.
While sitting at his feet.

The Sarcastic Oabman.

The whip flicking hero of this story
had driven an irascible old fellow a
good three mile journey. When the
fare climbed stifiy out and slowly pro-
duced big pocketbook cabby drew a
deep breath and prepared to be sarcas-
tic. A watchful constable standing
near prevented all thought of, his re-
lieving his feelings by the use Of pic
turesque terms.
Cabby watched his fare make a
lengthy mental calculate Of the dis
lance he had been driven, select the
exact legal fare, count 1t twice over
and then proffer It to him, with an ex-
preston on his face plainly indicative
of 'Now, then, you dare dispute it and
I'll take your number"
But cabby didn't dispute it. Instead
he promptly accepted 1t; but, slipping
his hand into another pocket, he pro-
duced a farthing, which he handed to
the fare.

A Dreaded Quilt.

Queen Victoria was an expert and
indefatigable knitter. During the
Egyptian campaign she and the ladies'
of the household employed themselves
in knitting quilts, which at the end
Of the war were sent to Netley Hos

Of these, made entirely by her Majesty
and bearing an elaborate v. R. in the
center, was the coverlet par excellence
Of the institution and in universal de-

claims Of the candidates for the honor
Of sleeping upon it the medical staff
naturally gave the precedence to the
most severely wounded, and as the
most severely wounded was the one
most likely to die very soon, alas, an
evil omen attached itself to the distinc-
ton, the climax of which was reached
one night when poor soldier, feeling
something touching his bedclothes,
woke up with perspiration pouring
down his face and cried out, "Oh, sir,
