A Larger Organ Motor

motor under the organ. The motor
which they furnished was found not

the capacity of.the full organ, under
all conditions. This was discover ed
last winter in connection wish sew

which require not only powerful

when these compositions were render
ed by the recitals such parts had TO
be hurried over, regardless Of the no

were marred. 1t is true such compo-
sitions are not commonly rendered,
but the organ committee Of the vestTy
felt that the rebuilt organ should be
equal to all reasonable demands, and
deferred final payment until new
motor was provided and installed.
This the organ builders have done.
How satisfactorily the work has been
done cannot be ascertained until Mr.

TO CHANGE NAVY UNIFORM
Pancake Cap and Flaring Tr ousers
OF Bluejackets May Go

With the sanction Of Admiral Evans
a board Of naval officers, with Captain
Hugo Ogterhaus as senior member,
has been appointed TO decide upon
changes in the uniforms Of enlisted
men in the United States Navy.
A general opinion exists among the
officers that changes should be made
for the good Of the service, some Of
them maintaining that the conspicuous
attire Of the seamen has done much
10 prevent enlistment in the navy.
while the Marine Corps, which has a
natty uniform, has no trouble in Sc
curing recruits
The chief grievance in the navy
seems TO be in reference to the old pan
cake style OF sailor cap. These caps
are said to be utterly useless on a
windy day. a cap similar to the white
duck hat now used, made Of blue
Goth, was tried at one time, but il was
said 10 be not dressy enough. Com
pIaint has also been received from the
men Of their blouscs and the wide
daring trousefs. The uniform seems
10 be a relic Of the past.

FAMILY FOOD.
Crisp, Toothsome and Requires No
Cooking.

A little boy down In N. c asked his
mother to write an account of how
Grape-Nhts food had helped their fam
fly.
She gays Grape-Nuts was first
brought to her attention on a visit to
Charlotte, where she visited the Mayor
OF that city who was using the food by
the advice of his physician. She
says:
They derive so much good from 1t
that they never pass a day without
using II. While l was there l used the
Food regularly. ! gained about Is
pounds and felt 80 well that when re-
turned home ! began using Grape-Nuts
IN our family regularly.
"My little IS months old baby short
ly after being weaned was very i'll
with dyspepsia and teething. She was
sick line weeks and we tried every
thing. She became so emaciated that
II was painful to handle her and We
thought we were going TO lose her.
One day a happy thought urged me to
try Grape-Nuts soaked In a little warm
milk.
'well. II worked like a charm and
she began taking 1t regularly and i'm
provement set in at once. She is now
getting we'll and round and fat as fast
as possible on Grape-Nuts.
"Sometime & several of the family
were stricken with LaGrippe at the
same time, and during the worst stages
we could not relish anything in the

oranges. everything else nauseated us.

pUck TIES UP PHONE SYSTEM.
Gets Wire In Its Mouth and Line is
Short-Circuited.

Watertown. s. Done spoonful
duck was the cause of the suspension
OF the long distance telephone service
east of this city for several hours.
All tests known to the management
were applied but failed to locate the
seat OF trouble. A lineman was
despatched by team to ascertain the
cause. He found that, just east of Al.
lamont, the third station from this
city. on the Northwestern railroad, a
spoonbill duck. In It's flight from one
lake to another, had evidently started
to quack either a greeting or a warn
ing to its mate and had caught the
wire full in the mouth. The mOmen-
tdm had carried it against a second
wire. the two forming a vicelike grip
upon the birds neck, the body making
several revolutions around the wires
and twisting them into a cable, thus
short-circuiting the system. The duck.
with a broken neck, was still suspend
ed from the wires when the linesman
reached the scene.

swallows SNAKE IN WATER.
Cincinnati Man Has Unpleasant ESpe.
rlenee While Camping.

Lawrenceburg, Ind.-Shortly after
he had taken a drink OF water from a
spring while camping In Kentucky.
Thomas Jcffries, member OF a Cincin-
natl club, became deathly sick, his
means and groans awakening the 9th
err members of the party. His distress
soon alarmed his friends. and a mes
senger was sem to Petersburg, Ky,
and returned with DR.. Ralph Tilley,
who. after a careful examination. was
unable to diagnose the case from the
external symptoms.
The doctor finally decided 20 admin.
lister an emetic, which readily disclosed
the cause of the sudden illness. JEFF
fries complained to the doctor, saying
that he thought he had severed or
wrenched some parts of his internal
organs. DIR. Tilley found a garden
snake about five or six inches long
and alive. Il is believed Jeffries swal-
lowed the snake when he drank at
the spring.
Jeffries said he was about half
asleep when he went to get the drink
of water, and he dld not remember
swallowing the snake, but In a few
minutes afterward felt a peculiar sen.
satlon in his stomach, q jerking and
twisting feeling. He was given a slim.
ulant and he improved rapidly. DR.,
Tilley jokingly remarked that it was
the first time he knew or ever heard
of a man having snakes from drinking
water.

SEA GIVES UP BANK CHECKS.
Papers Drift 500 Miles and Puzzle th'
Finders.

London.-A remarkable discovery OF
checks, which had drifted 500 miles
at sea, has been made on the German
coast at Wyk, in the Island Of Fohr.
They were drawn on the Dover
branch Of the National Provincial
Bank of England, the manager of
which was notified Of their discovery
through Lloyd's agency at Fohr. The
German finders believed them to be
valuable, and asked If any reward was
offered for their recovery.
At first the whole affair was a mys.
terry to the bank officials, but inquiries
resulted in a peculiar explanation.
About six months ago a client of
the bank. who had changed his ad-
dress, placed a large number OF old
checks and other papers in a sack.
He had the sack taken out into the
straits of Dover and sunk.
In the drift of about 500 miles from
Dover to the Island of Fohr, of the
German coast, the sack had burst,
with the result hat the checks 1t con.
tanned will probably be floating ashore
on various parts OF the European
coast line.
