The Perverse Golf Bali.

A collector Of evidence on the subject
maintains learnedly that the golf ball
is the most perverse of human inst1-
tuuons. Here is list OF strange lies
noted by a follower Of the ancient
game: In another players pocket,
where 1t had dropped after travelling
200 yards; In cows mouth; on the
roof of clubhouse; behind the glass
protecting painting hanging on
cottage wall; in ciump Of daisies,
which It so resembied that 1t was not
found for an hour. When it fell In the
cows mouth the frightened animal
galloped 276 yards nearer the hole and
then restored the ball to It's owner. He
promptly claimed to have driven It 39T
yards and the right to play It from
where It lay.

Sir Henry Roscoe tells this Of the

Sergeant Anderson: Anderson was
the sole assistant to Faraday and Of
course was utterly uneducated in scien-
tific matters, but he could obey ORDERS
which is not always characteristic Of
an educated man. One day Anderson
was told by Faraday TO keep stirring
pot containing some chemicals over
d fire until he returned. Faraday being
IN the habit Of going upstairs to tea in
his rooms and coming down directly
aftHrward to work in the laboratory
during the evening. For some reason
be was prevented from coming down
again and forgot that he had told An
derson to watch the pot On coming
down the next morning he found An
derson, still stirring the pot, having
been at 1t the whole night and thus car
rying out the order which was given
him."

Life saving at Fires.

universal rule that life saving takes
precedence over fire fighting. II fire
escapes are lacking or seriously oh
structed all hands devote their entire
energies to the work OF rescsling by
raising ladders, by forcing a passage
through smoke filled Railways or by
other emergency means. Life nets are
spread and held ready for those who
have not the nerve to wait for their
rescuers. Life saving consumes valu-
able time which could be applied to adj
vantage in fighting the flames, and the
probable necessity for expanding this
time, governed as It Is by many con-
siderations, plays an important part In

incidents for the newspapers. but are
less efficient, slower and a great deal
