Si,aepdou Trials.

Sheepdog trials are becoming popu'
lar in Canada, and there is some call
for them in the neishborhood OF New
York. But the east can hardly be
called a sheep country, and where
there are no sheep there can be little
use for working sheepdcgs. Sheep
dog trials are looked upon as a sort
of national pastime or game in Wales
and Australia, and to watch the dogs
work is to recognize the marvellous in
telligence of these aids to shepherds.
The great Toronto show or fair is
now the gathering place of the sheep
dog owners, and the entertainments
that their dogs have given have been
greatly applauded. Maj. G. M. Carno-
chan is the chief supporter of the
trials near New York, and his dogs
have given very good exhibitions.
The uses of these competitions are
manifold. They point to the dog as a
utility animal for man, and of what
service he is particularly to the shep-
herd In the great paddocks of Aus
tralia and on the mountains of Wales
and Scotland, one dog can do the
work of hundred men; he is an indis'
pensable animal. Again, these trials
give to townfolk an inkling as to the
intelligence of dog, and it is to be
hoped they will treat him accordingly.

age was obtained by the typically
American practice of contributing to

$1,25O,O00 in that case to make a

the same time $15O,OOO was required

under the disadvantage of not being

the British peerage is the best of its

foreign honors can better realize her
ambition in marrying a mere English
baronet than by contracting half a
dozen alliances with Russian princes,
papal princes and such.

Did ever tell you of old Lemuel
Green who lived in my town? Old
Lem was about as economical as they
make them. By strict attention to bust
ness and never spending a cent more
than he had to, he had accumulated
considerable property, and on retiring
from active life, his one ambition was
to keep his money intact, adding to
it, of course, when occasion offered.
His nightly occupation was to figure
up the interest on his investments, to
see how much richer he was than the
day before. The first thing he would
do In the morning, after his frugal
earthly hour, was to go to the hotel,
where he was first to get hold of the
morning paper left for the benefit of
the patrons of the hostelry. 1t was
the keenest sort of enjoyment for him
! to know that the reading of the sheet
was attended with no expense.
THE crowning achievement of his
career came in connection with his
marriage, an event which took place
very late in life. He always had said
he couldn't afford to get married, and
the announcement of his approaching
nuptials set the whole community
agog. 1t was figured out that in some
way he was going to make or save
money by it, but just how we didn't
know, and l guess no one knows tC
this day; however, Lem being what he
was, there can be no doubt that he
was the monetary gamer At any rate
he showed, Immediately after the
ceremony, that he had entered into
the state of wedlock in no eXtravagan'
spirit.
THE marriage took place at the
parsonage. After the words which

END OF FAMOUS wARsHlps.
The Old Frigate Saratoga Sails Her
Last Voyage.

Another naval vessel has sailed her
last voyage and is now awaiting the
orders of the government as to what
shall be done with her, says the New
York Post. She is the old frigate Sar-
atoga, which, since 1889, has been
used by the Pennsylvania nautical
school and is now tied up at the
League island yard. An investigation
was recently made to find how much
repairing would be necessary to make
her a safe sea-going vessel and some
parts of her we're found to be beyond
repair. The shape of the bow OF the
Saratoga has been the main cause, the
officials say, of her wrenched and
crumbled condition. 1t does not cut
the waves, but rather breasts them.
Early this year, when Commander
Charles n. Aswater, retired, superln-
tendent of TIE school, and so students
were sailing the old frigate about 2OO
miles north of the Bermuda islands,
they encountered a heavy storm and
every wave seemed to nearly tear the
ship apart They decided to return TO
League island for repairs and there It
was found that her bow had been
wrenched three inches out of plumb.
The Saratoga was the first of num-
Der of sloops-of-war built in the OLD
navy yard at Kittery, Me-, in 1912, and
was equipped with four guns. The
following year Commodore Perry hoist
ed his pennant on the Saratoga and
sailed in her to the coast Of Africa to
help in putting down the slave trade.
In February, 1847, Admiral Farragut
took command of her while he was
captain. For a year the vessel was on
blockade duty OFF the coast OF Mexico
and then returned north. She was in
Commodore Perry's fleet when that
officer went to Japan in 1852 to open
up the ports of that country to Amer
ican commerce.
Various captains commanded her
during the civil war and she barely
escaped destruction in Hampton roads
when the Cumberland was sunk. Dur
ing the late '70s and early 'SOs she
was used as a training ship, one OF
her commanders being Rear Admiral
Robley D. Evans, at that time a lieu
tenant commander and now in com
mand of the Atlantic feet at the
jamestown exposition. On Sept. IL
1889, she was turned over to the Penn
sylvania nautical school. The sara

der the ice after the manner of all
whoppers.
Tozier says that he pulled strong
and steadily, and after a time some
thing came up kerchurg against the
under side Of the ice. Peering through
the hole, he was astonished to see
that he had caught jug, but not by
the handle. 1t appeared to be an or
dinary brown two-gallon affair, and he
concluded that his hook had dropped
through the neck and caught inside.
This theory, however, was exploded
when he chopped the jug out.
By pulling the line taut wicked
eye was brought to the hole. The eye
belonged to an eel which had in its
youth wriggled into the jug and re-
manned there in comfort until too

THE RUM RATION.
Growing Sentiment in the British Navy
Against II.

British newspapers have recently
been directing public attention to the
rum ration in the navy. BY long es-
tablished custom every man in the
service was supplied with his tot OF
rum and was supposed to be unable
to do his work properly without it.
Through the earnest effort of reform
ers the ration was at length stopped
for lads under IS, and option given
those above this age to decline the
spirit ration and accept as equivalent
a small sum, the government price of
duty free" rum.
Now the duty is much more than
the value of the article, and it is
found more profitable to draw the
rum ration, and sell it at current
value. This is contrary to rekula-
tions, but it is difficult to prevent.
Many doubtless draw the ration be-
cause they are entitled to it, and then
because they cannot or dare not sell
| it, drink it themselves.
To remedy existing evils it is sug
gested that each man be allowed I'd
per day in lieu of the rum ration. Ad
vocates of the proposed change claim
that this would be a substantial in
crease in the pay and would be highly
popular, it would result in greater
economy more efficiency, and better
discipline than under present condi
tions. They also point out other ma
tions that formerly had this custom
have abolished it with entirely bene
fetal results to the service and tt
the nation. The question is bein'
considered by the committee appoint
ed to deal with canteen and victualiz
ing arrangements for the services gen
orally.
