PRIMITIVE ANCHORS.
Stones and Wooden Tubes Filled With
Lead First Used.

There appear To be two ideas which
have led up to the invention OF the
modern anchor-6rst, that Of attach
ing the vessel by means of n rope
or chain to n weight sufficiently heavy
to keep the vessel from moving when
the weight has sunk to the bottom OF
the sea, and, second, that OF using a
hook instead of or In addition 10 the
weight so as to catch In the bottom
The English word anchor Is practical
ly the same as the Latin ancora and
the Greek angkura, meaning that
which has an angle" from the root
ank, bent.
The earliest anchors made on the
hook principle probably only had one
huke instead of two. In the Sussex
Archaeil. Coll" there is an Illustration
OF what has been surmised to be an
anchor made out Of the natural forked
branch of tree. II was found with
an ancient British canoe at Burpham
Sussex There Is I'm the British muse
um an interesting leaden anchor with
two hukes bearing a Greek inSCrip-
tlon. It's date Is about 80 Il. c., and 1t
was found off the coast Of Cyrene.
The invention Of the anchor with
two flukes is attributed by Pausanlus
to Midas, by Pliny to Eupalamas and
by Strabo to AnacharsiS. Diodorus
Siculus states that the first anchors
were wooden tubes filled with lead,
while another classical writer says
that before the Introduction OF metal
anchors Jumps of stone with n hole
through the middle for the attach
ment OF the cable were used.
The form Of the anchors used by
the Greeks and Romans Is well known
from representations on Trajan's col
umn and In the Catacombs ut Rome
as an early Christian symbol. This
form does not seem TO have changed
materially for quite thousand years,
as is shown 10y the Bayeux tapestry.

A TERRIBLE BIG TROUT.
He Was Cunning and a Hard Case,
Too, Was This Fish.

We were camping In northern Wis
consin, and one evening after our sup
per Of black bass and bacon we lay
under the pine trees smoking and tell
Ing fish stories In which II was always
the bigger bass" that got away. The
guide listened with the gravity OF a
man who knew all about fish stories
and finally he knocked the ashes from
his pipe and told us a story.
"Once long ago" he said, there was
terrible big trout up In Smiths
pool had hooked him one time or an
other, but he always got away, bit OF
the snood or something
81 tried 10 catch him myself a dozen
times. One day I was sitting by the
pool when, splash, a young robin
huttered out OF the nest on limb
above the pool into the water below.
In minute there was n rush, a CLEAN
OF yellow, and the old trout had
thrown himself clear out OF the water
and had swallowed the young robin
whole.
what did dop Well, ! climbed
that tree I'm short order, got another
one OF those young robins. baited my
hook with II and threw IL In just as
lightly az | could. In n minute there
was another rush, another CLEAN Of
yellow, and again the old trout jump
ed clear out OF the water as he swal-
lowed the robin, and in a minute more
/ had him hooked.
"1t was lucky wasn't fishing with
any OF this newfangled rigging these
boys use and that / wasn't bothered
with reel TO look after, or I would
have lost him sure. AS II was ii took
me devil OF time to get him out.
Good to eatf Great Scott! We
didn't try 10 eat him. He was SO full
OF hooks we sold him for Old iron,
you know"
That ended our fish stories for that
night. j. A. in Chicago Tribune.

MELONS IN STORAGE.
How a Rural J. p. Decided Suit Be-
tween Neighbors.

Problems worthy Of Solomon's acu-
men are often submitted TO these rural
arbitrators, Justices OF the peace. In
the Macon county (Mo) archives Is a
case OF this sort:
Timothy Kain, a farmer OF Easley
township, set out some watermelon
vines which grew so luxuriously that
they trespassed upon the field OF his
neighbor, Felix Hopper When garner
ing time came Kaln's attempt TO har-
vest his runaway product was rebuked
by Hopper and his shotgun. The con
| troversy got into court, and Squire
| William Easley, for whom the town
ship was named, was asked TO decide
| the ownership OF ten watermelons
worth - cents apiece. The lawyers
! for Kahn read books TO show that his
rights Of property followed the vines
clear into the next county should they
| travel so far. Iopper's lawyers pro
duced equally sound reading TO prove
| that Hopper was entitled by law to
ANYTHING that camped on his premises.
1t wasn't Hopper's fault, they said, II
the vines wanted to spread out and go
visiting. He had the same right TO
them that he would have TO colony
Of honeybces that might get tired or
being with Kaln and concluded to move
over and make honey for Hopper.
Squire Easley let the lawyers spout
until they had read through all their
books; then he arose TO his six feet
and said:
mitchell has read books that mako
Il absolutely certain them melons be-
long to KaIn. / hadn't any doubt In
the world about that till Guthrie here
got up and turned Mitchells law bot
tom side up. There's no question but
what there's enough law In the books
for both Kan and Hopper, and that
ought to make 'em happy. The court
decides under the circumstances that
with the law deciding both ways there's
nothing TO do but to hand out justice
as he sees It. The judgment OF the
court is that those are Kain's melons,
Thank you, your honor" said Mitch
ell, arising and bowling.
but that he's indebted to Hopper
20 cents apiece for storage, hhlsheu
the justice.
But, your honor" said Mitchell In
dignantly, you can't do that. They
haven't filed any claim for storage.
Besides, you're allowing them more
for their melons than they're worth on
the market"
"The court will take judicial notice
of the defendants rights, Offset or no,
said Squire Easlcy, with some asper-
ity. "And your own evidence shows
Hopper was diligently guarding Kain's
property for him. That's worth some
thing"

was there with n shotgun when he

Didn't Get a Patent.

Among the strange applications which
reach the patent office one filed some
years ago was most extraordinary, ii
being petition for Il patent for an ant
guard which consisted In merely draw
Ing chalk mark around table or
other place by which II was claimed
the approach of ants was stopped. II
seems that chalk makes an ants legs
slip as soaplng n track prevents n rail
way engine from starting. The peti-
tion was novel and caused considcra-
bic amusement The application, how
ever, was refused on the ground that
there was nothing new in the inven-
ton, that chalk had been used for such
purposes before and that such ideas
were not patentable.
