EnaIlsh Naval Men Interested.


The announcement that the Amer
lean battleship fleet will return from
the Pacific to the Atlantic by way of
the Suez canal has created the greatest
interest among naval officers in Lon
don, who are anxious to see the YES
sells and observe the effects of the
long cruise
Should the Americans fail to come
to England, Malta would be the better
place to entertain them, as besides be-
ing headquarters for the Mediter
ranean fleet, the duke of Connaught,
the new commander in chief of the
military forces of the Mediterranean,
has residence there, which makes
it the center of much social activity
The cruise of the fleet from Hampton
Roads to Magdalena bay has been
closely followed by Englishmen, who
laud the achievement, and a visit by
it to some British port would prove
extremely popular.
Germans Comment.
The German naval critics are COM
menting upon the wonderful feat of
seamanship displayed in the 10000
mile voyage of the American battle
ship fleet under command of Rear
Admiral Evans and its arrival at Mag
dalena bay four days ahead of sched-
uled time without a ship being dis
abled. They consider it proof of ex-
cellent material as well as of per
sonnet.
The details of the homeward voy-
age of the fleet will be watched with
keen interest in Germany.
Hawaii Is Enthusiastic.
The official announcement that the
United States Atlantic battleship
fleet is coming to Hawaii has created
the greatest enthusiasm in Honolulu,
and preparations for the entertain
ment of the officers and men only
await advices as to the time of ar
rival.
Japan Invites the Fleet.
Toxic. Japan-The official route OF
the American battleship fleet, on its
return to the Atlantic, has been con.
veyed to the foreign office. Baron
Saito, minister of marine, when
shown the itinerary, repeated his pre-
vious statements and emphasized
Japan's desire that the fleet would
visit Japanese port in order to en-
able a practical demonstration of the
sincerity of her friendship for the
United States and people. At the for
eign Office it was said: 1.-THE decision
of the American government to send
the fleet on a tour of the world should
finally silence all war talk. 1t is q
guaranty of the peace of the world.
Military and naval officers are
unanimous in pronouncing the pro
posed tour one of the greatest achieve
ments of history.

library commission shall care for the
travelling libraries formerly issued
from the state superintendent Of
flee.
To Whom Loaned.
The libraries are not loaned to In
dividuals, but to any village, town or
community which will form library
association with not less than six
members, or any school, study club
or similar organization which will act
as library association. In all cases
those interested must agree to be re-
sponsible for the safe keeping and
return of the library and to manage
it in accordance with the rules Of the
library commission. An application
blank or agreement must be properly
filled out signed by six responsible
persons and filed with the public H.
brary commission at Bismarck before
a library will be shipped.
A small public library may obtain
travelling library for the use of its
patrons in order to encourage the use,
Eof the local library and to illustrate
better selection Of books.
Free to All.
No fee shall be charged for the use
OF these books. Arrangements should
be made in advance by subscriptions
or pledges for the payment Of the ne.
cessary cost of transportation
Time Library May Be Kept.
The period for which the libraries
are loaned is six months, but an ex-
tension will be granted when desired,
upon application.
All shipments are made from Bis

Number Of Books in Each Library.
The libraries contain from forty to
fifty books in fixed collections, adapt
ed to both adults and children. There
are no printed catalogues for dis
tribution, but list of the books is

1t is urged that the library be kept
in a convenient place, open for the
delivery and return of books, at such
time as is determined upon by the
local organization, Of which due no
tice shall be given to the public. The
location of the library is important,
as it should be kept at a central point
where people will have no hesitancy
in going.
Librarian.
The local store keeper or postmas,
ter will often be willing to take
charge Of the library, but librarian
should be selected who will take an
interest in the books and try to get
the people to read them. The success
of a travelling library depends very
largely upon the librarian.

is taken into consideration by some persons. The
young man, probably. was sorry for the abrups
termination of his friendship with the young lady,
but perhaps 1t was for the best. That his
version of 1t, anyhow.
Most English speaking nations celebrate Christ
mastide Just as we Americans do, but each has its
little self-made variation In Italy they celebrate
with grand dance, as a rule, and they take great
pains to be attired in gaudy raiment The Danish
are very deliberate about their Christmas festivi-
ties and great fees and gifts are the order of the
day. The Swiss fervent in their worship of
the Saviour on that day and the little children
dressed for gala affairs parade the streets in or
der that their parents may look at them and COM
pare them with the kids next door"
Many persons who have read much history and
who have been able to persuade themselves that
tie present century is all wrong as to the date
of the birth of Christ, are skepucal as to whether
should observe the sacred day when we do.
Estimates as to when Christ was born extend
clear from June to January 26.
Prior to the fourth century Christmas was not
observed on December 25, for there was no period
of uniformity in observing the day among the
early churches. The skeptical persons who have
studied the thing from end to end say that on
December 20 it rained in Judea and then attention
is called to the Biblical statement that shepherds
were watching their hocks when Christ was born.
Dow how could they watch their iocks when it
was raining? is the argument of the unbelievers
that December 20 is the correct day of feast.
One person who IL not skeptical declared that
perhaps they didn't have sense enough to come in
out of the rain in those days. But of course that
is no argument The chances are the calendars
have been changed so much that the original
December rs, If hunted down. would be found
flirting with May /. OF course the correct day
upon which to worship has much to do with the
feeling OF Christians in the matter, but at the
same time If the event is properly observed the
time of observance is but detail
Many good churchmen who seldom attend
church on Sundays find Christmas an excellent
day to attend church because it only falls on Sun
day once In seven years and it doesn't break in
on their weekly holiday morning nap.

Phosphorescent Tree

People walking in a wood In the
Wishaw district, near Glasgow, after
dark, We're startled the other night by
what they took to be an apparition In
the wood. On making investigation
they found the trunk Of an ash tree
in an upright position giving forth a
light resembling phosphorescence, but
more brilliant. Those who have Wis
tied the spot stoutly insist that the
trees light is more Of an incandescent
brightness, sufficient for the reading
of print in its vicinity. Large crowds
we're attracted to the place to witness
the spectacle. while young people Sc

ovsrerowdine Not Allowed

On English railways a passenger in
a full carriage has a legal right to
push away any one else who tries to
get into it. This decision was given
in a London police court when a man
complained that he was pushed out Of
a carriage at station by another pas
senger, who said the car was full. 1T
is the duty Of the conductor" said the
court TO see that the trains are not
overcrowded. They are perfectly en-
titled to use reasonable force to pre-
vent any one from boarding cars when
they are full. If they fail to avail
themselves of this right the passen-
gers are entitled to act for them
selves"

Interesting Experiment with KNIFE.

In paper presented to the British
association by Mr.. Makower, Miss
White and Mr.. Marsden, at its recent
meeting. an account is given Of some
novel experiments made at the Man
chester university kite station, Clos
sop. in which kite was connected to
a galvanometer by wire, and then to
the earth. Owing TO the upper layers
Of the atmosphere being at a higher
electrical potential than the earth, a
current flowed down the wire to the
earth. The current varied between 5
and % one hundred thousandth part OF
an ampere.

The value of the output Of the Brit

from s2775O,OOO to sS9.OOO,OOO. The
potteries are located in various parts
of the United Kingdom. including Stat

however, are in Staffordshire. in the
west of England, where extensive beds
of clay and mari have been the basis
OF the industry for neary two CEN

the United Kingdom is in this district.
