Care Is Urged
On Dog OqUners

z. c, Schroeder, superintend-
ent Of the experiment station Of
the Bureau of Animal Industry
at Bethesda. Md, has the follow
ing plan for checking the rabies:
Every owner of a dog should
examine it daily with sufficient
care to detect marked changes in
its physical condition and charac-
ter that may be the symptoms
of approaching disease, and when
such changes are observed the
dog should be so confined that,
should it become affected with
rabies, it will not be able to com
municate the disease to persons
and animals. All diseases of dogs
are not rabies, and ia pies is not
the only infectious disease of
dogs. Proper isolation the ne
ment dogs show a variation from
their normal condition will re-
ward itself in time"

OLD PROJECTILES
BURIED IN WELL
Long Forgotten Implements
of War Found at
Navy Yard.

Several cases Of old projectlles Of a
type that was obsolete many years ago.
have been found in an old well, the
existence Of which had been forgotten.
on the site OF the new marine barracks
building. near the Navy Yard.
The finding Of these projectiles has
aroused much speculation, as the army
and navy officials cannot account for
their presence in the well. Whether or
not they were dumped into there TO
keep them from falling into the hands
OF an attacking enemy. during the times
il was believed Washington was in dan
ger. cannot be told. There is no rec
ord. official or Otherwise, of the exist
ence OF these shells.
Although it is not known, II is be-
iieved that they are Of American manu-
facture, and probably Of a type used
by the Marine Corps or army many
years ago. They are extremely small
and Ineffective looking by comparison
with the enormous nigh power pro-
iectiles Of the present day.
They are of the old one-pOunder type,
that in its day was considered most
formidable and they were handled with
extreme caution.
But little could be found OF the cases
that originally contained them When
taken from the wen nearly all OF then
were lying loose From the enormous
quantity recovered, IT is believed there
must have been many tons Of them.

LUXURIOUS SHIPS
ON BOSTON LINE
The Harvard and Yale Take In
side Route to New
York.

Water traffic between New York and
Boston will be given a decided stimulus
again this summer by the resumption
OF tTaf1c by the new tTiple-expansion
turbine steamers Yale and Harvard OF
the Metropolitan Line.
These big steamers maintain ali
average speed OF twenty-four miles an
hour, and make the run in fifteen hours,
They are well appointed and luxurious.
and have every modern convenience. It
is claimed for them that they have
more private baths than any other
vessels OF their size afiOat.
The Harvard and Yale are siSt@r
ships. 4O7 feet long ana sixty-three feet
wide. Their engines have a horse
power of 10000. A striking innovation
in their fittings is the placing OF
smoking room and cafe on the HURT
cane deck. The dining room Is on the
main deck, SC that passengers may
watch the panorama Of passing ships
while at meals They are fitted with all
safety appliances. and have wireless
telegraph and submarine signal install
lations.
They take what g known as the in
side route, or that followed by the
sound steamers. continuing out on the
Atlantic ocean, thence through Vine
yard sound near the southern extremity
OF Cape Cod. thence through Nantucket
sound and again out on the Atlantic
and on to Boston. This affords some
magnificent scenic effects.
