A HERO OF THE BUSH.
The Daring and Devotion Of Brave
Maori Youth.

The Daring and Devotion Of Brave
Maori Youth.
Courage is not an attribute peculiar
to the white man, nor Is self sacrifice
the prerogative Of civilization. In Mr..
J. G. Firth's "Nation Making is told
a story as touching in its brave devo-
ton as any tale of the Victoria cross.
The incident occurred at Orakan,
where the English soldiers had just
defeated the Maoris. A little party Of
colonial troops. pursuing fugitiyes,
came upon three natives, two old men
and one young fellow.
The youth, seeing the soldiers, drop
ped on one knee and aimed with his
gun at the advancing party, which
halted moment, while the old men
ran toward the forest. The old men
had thrown away their firearms in
order to make escape easier.
The soldiers fired at the youth, but
missed. Without discharging his gun
he sprang to his feet and ran on in
advance until he caught up with the
old men once more. Then, facing
about, he presented his gun as before.
but reserved his fire.
The weary old men gradually drew
near cover. Once more the soldiers
fired and missed; once more the gal
liant fellow turned and bounded on.
The old men We're close to the forest
when the youth, nearly fainting, again
knelt and took aim, but still did not
fire.
The soldiers shot him as he knelt
and rushed to the forest, but failed to
capture the two fugitives, who, safe:
in the dense underbrush. made their
escape.
On their return the soldiers found
the brave young fellow lying dead.
His gun was eenpty, it had not been
loaded at all. With it he had covered:
the retreat of the old men and secured
their freedom by the loss of his: own
life. No more gallant deed of. heroic.
devotion was ever accomplished in
any land.

THE SHIPS RUDDER.
Difference In the Strain That Comes
Upon Its Two Parts.

Difference In the Strain That Comes
Upon Its Two Parts.
The rudder of wooden ship is COM
posed Of the stalk and the backing.
which are so joined together as to
form in effect a single piece. The
complete rudder is coppered to protect
1t from worms, and then. besides being
practically all in one piece, it has that
appearance also.
The stalk is the part to which are at
tached the pintles, or piyots, by which
the rudder is suspended and held in
place, these going through eyes set in
the ships sternpost. The stalk runs up
through the stern of the ship, and to
Its head is bolted cap to which are at
tached the ropes by means of which the
rudder is controlled. The backing is the
blade part Of the rudder.
BY far the greater strain comes on
the stalk, and the greatest strain of all
comes on the head of the stalk, the
rudder head, where it is held. The
stalk is made of the wood most likely
to stand the strain, carefully selected,
sound, we'll seasoned oak, while the
backing is made of spruce or hard pine.
The stalk is of a single, solid, massive
piece, stout as an oak tree and indeed
Of the dimensions of a small oak, some
thing that man can pin his faith to,
if he can have faith in any wood, while
the backing or blade is, like many mod
ern wooden masts, built up. 1t would
be difficult if not impossible to find
trees that would yield planks big
enough for the purpose in single
piece, and the built up backing, made
of pieces of selected wood, can easily
be made of ample strength to with
stand any strain that will be brought
upon it.
AS to the stalk, stout and solid as the
oak may be, the head may be twisted
by the force of a tremendous blow from
a wave upon the rudder, or, under the
repeated strains of long use, the head
may split and so make the stalk use
less Then the rudder is taken out and
fitted with new stalk. A suitable
stick is selected and worked down to
the proper size and form, and very
probably the old backing is attached to
it. The life of rudder stalk would
probably be twelve to fourteen years.
The backing might last as long as the
ship.-New York Sun.

Dreams of The Healthy.

There has been much discussion as to
whether one dreams only on.,falling to
sleep and during the act Of waking up,
or whether dreams take. place at any
time during sleep. While not definitely
determined as yet, the evidence seems
to be rather in favor of the view that
one may dream at any time during
the night or the whole night through
Dreaming is common to perfectly
healthy persons, and in itself is no
evidence of disorder.-Harper's Maya

Mount Mckinley.

In mountain climbing the world over
the climber usually arrives fresh and
unfatigued at the base of the, peak he
wishes to storm and, as rule, begins
his ascent at high altitude. On Mount
Mckinley, as described by writer in
Outing, it is the opposite. There are
twenty-five miles Of rugged foothills
and glaciers to be crossed-with heavy
packs-before the base of the mountain
is reached, and then the climber is con-
fronted by $4,000 feet of rock and ice.
