WIRELESS DID GOOD WORK.
Materially Aided Admiral Togo to
Crush Rolestvensky.

Wireless telegraphy played a most
important part in the great naval en-
gagement between the Russian and
Japanese ships in the late war. A
Japanese writer says that at the time
of the battle of the Sea Of Japan the
weather was foggy and hazy to such
an extent that it was impossible to see
for distance greater than five miles.
A Japanese scout cruiser, while
searching for the Russian fleet. sud
denly found herself, when the fog had
lifted, Unexpectedly for a moment,
practically in the midst of the numer-
Ous vessels Of the enemy. A wireless
message was at once transmitted Civ
ing notice of the discovery, and this
message was simultaneously received
by all the vessels of the Japanese
squadron, notwithstanding that these
were some 150 miles distant.
Admiral Togo Immediately dis
patched squadron Of scouts, which
kept in touch with the enemy, and in
formed him at five-minute intervals Of
the course, speed, position and loca-
ton of the Russians, with such accu-
racy that Admiral Togo was able to
forecast with absolute precision the
actions Of the enemy.
It was through wireless communi-
cation alone that it was possible for
the Japanese commander to maneuver
and to place his fleet to enable him
to strike the enemy most advan-
tageously. All of the Russian ships
were equipped with the latest and
most efficient wireless outfits, but they
failed to interfere with the messages.

DIDN'T STOP TO FIGURE.
Possibilities Of Apparently Simple Bet
Staggered Frenchman.

A curious bet that partakes OF the
nature OF a practical joke went to
the courts in the town of Dole,
France, in 1884. A citizen of the dis
trict offered to pay one Of his coun-
trymen "a francs in advance If he
would agree to furnish him with a
number of grains of millet in proper
ton to the number of children born
in the town within a year. One
grain of millet was to be given for
the first, two for the second, four
for the third, eight for the fourth,
and so on, doubling the number for
each child.
Accepting the apparently generous
offer, the unlucky Frenchman at
tempted to cSrry out the provisions;
but 66 children were born within the
specified time. He was astonished at
the enormous quantities of grain re
quired to fulfill the contract, and ap-
pealed to the courts for annulment
of the wager, on the ground that 1t
was founded on an impossible condi-
ton.
The judges granted his appeal; but
ordered him to return the 25 francs
he had received and pay "a in ad-

A strange chronological history is
that possessed by the word "canteen"
which has caused so much talk in
temperance and army circles-if it's
origin is correctly assigned to the old
Latin "quintana, which literally
means "of the fifth rank" or fifth in
order" The "quintana (via)" was a
street in the Roman camp so called
because it came between the fifth
maniple, or company, and the sixth.
Here all the business and marketing
Of the camp was done and "quintana"
eventually came to mean a market.
