The crew of the whaler Lara Han
sen saw, according to the indianapolis
News, frozen in a monster iceberg a
female polar bear and two cubs, the
cubs nesting against the mother. The
berg stood out of the water fully 100
feet and the ice wherein the bears
were entombed was clear as crystal.
How long the animals had been locked
in their winter palace is matter of
conjecture, but they were at least %
feet above the wafer

Aguinaldo IL Now Cu1tivating Rice
and Potatoes.
Col. William F. Scott, who Is In the
United States on leave Of absence from
the Philippines, was interviewed at
Kansas City the other day, when he
made an interesting statement concern
ing Aguinaido. 1t appears that the
former leader Of our island wards has
gone out Of the business of rebellion,
or patriotism, or whatever they call 1t
over there, and turned his attention to
the propagation Of the potato and the
production Of hemp and rice. The
dauntless warrior who made it neces-
sary for Funston to swim river with
his sword in his teeth, has apparently
put away ambition, along with the
golden collar, the silver stick and other
emblems Of sovereignty which he had

delphia In the harbor 1t was for his
valiant service in the discharge Of his
duty in the Mediterranean that Mac
Donough was intrusted with the de-
lenses Of Lake Champlain in the war
Of 1912.
The British force on the lake out
numbered the American both in guns
and vessels. On the 11th Of August.
1914, in the battle off Plattsburg Mac
Donough distinguished himself not
only for his success of command, but
also for personal bravery In the face
OF overwhelming odds.
In the battle off Cumberland Head
his vessel, the Saratoga, met and de-
feated an English vessel Of double her
tonnage and number of guns. Most
men would have believed that without
q single gun ON one side engaged, a
fourth Of his men cut down, and the
ship already q wreck, enough injury
had been done to make submission in
evitable. But Marlborough found a
means to secure victory in the des-
perate condition Of his own ship.
The result Of MacDonough's valor
was the clearing Of this lake region Of
the British forces, which did much to
end the war. With Perry and Decatur
and Porter, Marlborough is deserving
Of all the honor that grateful country
can render to her loyal sons.

AMERICANS IN MEXICO.
Capital aud Special Training Required
of Them There.

Capital aud Special Training Required
of Them There.
To the young man whose eyes are
turning toward Mexico as a country
presenting great opportunities for &C.
curing wealth without capital Or spe-
cial training the information embodied
In a recent report of our consul at
Mexico City should be timely and val
liable.
Much that Is I'm this consular report
has been said before, but it will bear
frequent reiteration, because Of the
singular tendencies Of Americans to re-
gard Mexico as a promising land for
the pioneer. The type Of pioneer who
opened up the Western country for
settlement is likely to fail In Mexico,
for the reason that the country is al
ready fairly well settled, and devel-
opment Of it's resources calls for CAPT
tai and special technical training.
The consular report warns Ameri-
cans Of the dangers and losses attend
ing an indiscriminate emigration, such
as blazed the way for civilization in
our Western country There is room
only for men with capital or technical
knowledge, or both. If one Is not pos
sessed of expert technical knowledge
or ability in the industries that -four
ish in Mexico, one must be able to Sc
cure the services of men who are thus
equipped. Capital will not extract
wealth from the natural resources Of
Mexico unless it can command the
services Of the trained mining engi-
neer, the trained architect the trained
veterinarian, the skilled agriculturist.
In addition to technical skill, OR the
ability to employ it. the report urges
a speaking knowledge Of the Spanish
language, without which the chances
Of success, it declares. are exceedingly
small.
The report warns young men against
taking any stock in the stories about
the "easy- going methods Of Mexico"
The strain Of the climate and the tus-
sic with the elements severely tax the
energy and strength. For the man Of
great physical energy, who knows how
to take care Of himself, and who pos
sesses capital or technical ability,
there are great opportunities for max
ing money In Mexico.-Opportunity.

QUEER THINGS TO EAT.
What Was Served at the Table Of
London Epicure

London Epicure.
Here Is a typical insect menu, of
which no one need be afraid to par
take. since every item has been known
and esteemed by insect eaters for gen
erations past. 1t was served, not long
ago, according to Pearson's Weekly,
at the table of rich London epicure,
who Is also an enthusia site advocate
OF an insectarian dietary: Green cater
pillar soup, fried locust with wood
louise sauce, curried cockchafers, wasp
grubs baked In the comb. stag beetle
larvae on toast, moths baked in bat.
ter, deviled wireworms, grasshoppers
''au gratin"
The green caterpillars that compose
the soup feed entirely upon vegetables,
and mostly upon particular vegetables
most relished by man, such as cab
bages and lettuce.
In appearance the SOUP itself is not
unlike clear turtle, while its flavor is
delicious.
The locusts, which constitute the sec
ond course, have, as every one is
aware. been esteemed by gourmets the
world over, and from the remotest
antiquity. Eat We the locust after
his kind" was the biblical Injunction:
and John the Baptist is recorded as
having lived for some considerable
time upon "locusts and wild honey"
There are, Of course, many ways of
preparing them. They can be fried,
after their legs and wings have been
plucked of, which was. as a matter
of fact, the process adopted in this
particular instance. Or they may be
powdered and baked into cakes, or
curried, or boiled, turning red, like
Holsters, in the process.
The woodlouse sauce, IL properly
made with fresh butter, -four, milk,
pepper and salt, will be found fully
equal to shrimp, which it much re-
sembles in taste. Indeed, the wood
louise, although he lives on land, is
first cousin to that much reilshed crust
acean.
Cockchafers, currfed or otherwise,
are delicious If selected of service
able size and plumpness. So, too. are
their grubs, when full grown. They
should then be at least two inches in
length and fat in proportion, and may
be eaten uncooked, like oysters, or
stewed in milk.
Perhaps, however, the most tooth
some Of all insect dplica cies ia that
which comes forth on our menu Of
the day'-wasp grubs baked In the
| comb. These grubs have been fed by
their parents on a saccharine fluid COM
posed Of fruit and vegetable juices
and are simply tiny balls OF sugary
fat, possessing flavor as exquisite as
it is unique. No one who has. once
tasted them will ever again be surpris-
ed at the preference shown by fish for
this particular grub when used as q
bait.
The stag beetle Iarva Is. Of course.
Identical with the cossus, which the
old Roman epicures used to fatten for
their tables upon -four and wine. The
sixth course should be served steam
i ing hot, since there is no more ap-
petizing odor than that emanating
from a plump baked moth.
Deviled wireworms are eaten in the
form of a paste, spread upon sippets
Of toasts, and taste not unlike an
chovies when treated = similar fash
ion.

farmers are very busy at their
usual spring work.
Siberian crab apple trees and
pear trees are now in full bloom,
and it is thought that there will be
a pretty fair crop of apples, but
comparatively few peaches.
Wheat and meadows have i'm

have one of the best crop years
that we have had for many years.
Everything is very remarkably
quiet in this valley, there being
but little time given to neighbour
hood gossip. OF course, you all

the worst of us, And so much bad
in the best of us, That it scarcely
behooves any of us to talk about
the rest of u.s."
