Would Not Fear Japan.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Admiral Dew

as if he feared Japan" The fighting
hero of Manila bay says that we could
get our navy into eastern waters IN
six weeks and that within two weeks
after it's arrival there it could sweep
Japan's navy from the sea. He does
not believe there will be trouble, but
If there is, he would not consider Jap
an a foe to fear. He says that Japan
might seize the Philippines and pos
sibly Hawaii, but that our navy is am
ply able to cope with Japan and that
we would quickly retake the island
when we got ready.

Trophies Of she chase.

In the days when buffalo still roam.
ed the plains of Kansas in countless
numbers great many hunting parties
came over from Europe to have hand
IN their slaughter. One party was COM
posed of u Frenchman named Auguste
Rouzand, the first husband of Christine
Nilsson, the prIma donna, and an Eng
lishnan, a Mr.. Blackmore, from Lon
don. They arrived at Dodge City one
day in the fall with carload of equip
ment, including every sort of delicacy
that the market afforded and several
large trunks full of bright new butcher
knives. A detachment of the Sixth
cavalry from Fort Dodge was detailed
to accompany them, and probably no
command ever Jared better than that
one did. The Englishman shot few
buffalo, and the soldiers slaughtered
them by the hundreds. But the French
man didn't kill one. Instead, as fast
as the animals were shot he would
take one of his brand new butcher
knives, plunge 1t into the slain animal
until 1t was smeared with blood, wrap
1t carefully in tissue paper and put It
back In the trunk as a trophy Of the
chase to exhibit when he got back to
Paris as proof of hls mighty prowess
as a hunter. That was his idea of

"the holy grail, the sang-real or true

Is the real blood of our Blessed

the holy grale, or vessel. and does not
mean real blood, though 1t contained
the real blood, collected by Joseph OF

Curious School Customs.


Mexican schoolmasters show their
appreciation of a pupils efforts in n
curious manner. The diligent student
Is allowed to smoke cigar during the
lesson. When the whole class has Civ.
en- satisfaction, permission is given for
general smoke, and even the little
Mexlcans ar" allowed to light ciga-
rette for the occasion. Needless to say,
the schoolmaster himself smokes a
cigar Of a size and quality proportion
ate to his superior position. But the
scholars are not allowed to drink, this
privilege being accorded to the master
only. On his desk he always keeps a
bottle of liquor, which, when empty,
occasions much dispute among the
parents Of his scholars, as 1t is consid-
cred an honor to be able to fill the
schoolmaster's bottle.-London Stand.

Thread uasd In surasrv.

Are you aware that the modern sur
geon employs in his work dozens of
different kinds of thread for sewing
up cuts and wounds? Among them
are kangaroo tendons, horsehair, silk
and very fine silver wire. Many Of
these threads are intended to hold for
q certain number of days and then
naturally break away. The short,
tough tendons taken from the kanga.
roo. which are used for sewing severe
wounds, will hold for about four
weeks before they break away. Silk
thread will remain much longer, some
times six months, while the fine silver
wire Is practically indestructible.
With the entire outfit a surgeon iF
able to select a thread that will last
as long as the wound takes to heal
and will then disappear completely
To accommodate this assortment Of
threads special varieties of needles are
required. Besides the needle craned
in different segments Of q circle, sur
geons use needles shaped like spears,
javelins and bayonet points. = St

He Gave Them Latin.

speech in some obscure campaign In a
backwoods Tennessee district. His ad-
dress was very well received, but
somehow there did not seem to be ex.
actly the enthusiasm wanted for the
occasion. Having vainly tried to
warm up" his hearers, the general
was just going to sit down when the
chairman Of the meeting plucked him
by the coattail. For the Lords sake.
general, give 'em some LatinT' he hur.
riedly whispered in the speakers ear.
"They won't think you know anything
at all If you quit like this. Smith, the
opposition candidate, talked Latin to
'em half the evening"
Old Hickory rose to the situation.
Advancing to the edge of the platform,
he extended his arm and thundered
out: "E pluribus unum! Sic semper
tyrannis! Habeas corpusT
The audience roared with applause.
The credit Of the orator was saved,
and the Jackson ticket won out In that
