BIRDS GO OVER A
MILE A MINUTE

10 the casual observer it is almost in
conceivable that birds should be able
not only to sustain their OWN
weight in the air, but also to propel
themselves at the rate of a mile a minute.
This is the speed of our fast trains and al
most takes our breath away, but birds make
nothing of it.
Ducks are especially fast flyers. The can
vas back can distapce any other duck: 1t
can fy two miles minute, and keep it up
for hours The mallard is the slowest, but,
with an effort, can go mile minute. 1he
gadwall duck is not found in the East often,
but is numerous in Oregon. The members of
this family can travel eighty miles a an ho1r ah
canvas-back, but cannot keep the race as
long as the other.
One would be apt to think that geese fly
slower than mallard duck. This is not so.
they do not appear to be flying rapidly, put
they travel from eighty to one hundred miles
an hour, and keep it up, for day. -,

going at the rate of one hundred and fifty
miles an hour.
"Just as my companion looked up the
duck struck him in the forehead and knocked

COLORS OF RIVER
AND LAKE WATER

-7ECENT investigations of the color a
water lead to the conclusion that abb
solutely pure water has a blush TINT
when seen in masses OF sufficient
thickness. This is the color OF the deepest
and purest parts of the ocean.
With the increase of foreign matter In so,
luton the water becomes green, like that OF
the North Atlantic; or, If the impurity is very
slight, like the water OF the Balls OF Niagara
which shows beautiful emerald hue Otncr
/. and more pronounced impurities give deeper
colors to water.
Some lakes are distinctly blue; others pre-
sent various shades of green, so that in some
cases they are hardly Distinguishing from
almost black
The Lake OF Geneva is azure-hued; the
lake Of Constance and the Lake OF Lucerne
are green; the color Of the Mediterranean has
greenish yellow and its neighbor, Lake Thun;
is blue. New York State has both green and
blue lakes.
The colors OF rivers differ yet more widely
The Rhone is blue and SO is the Danube, DE- whiie
Virginia, is red, SO is the Colorado, as its
name implies.
Anybody who has traversed the Adirondack
. region and fshed in its waters must nave no
ticed the remarkable difference in the color
of its rivers and smaller streams, which ra
diate in every direction from the central
group of mountains.
The waters of the Sacondago are yellowisl,
while those of the Canada creeks and OF the
Mohawk are clear, with perhaps blush tint
, in deep pools.
Fish Creek is black or deep brown, and its
neighbor Salmon River, is colorless Next
! cemes the Black River, the color of which is
Zadicated by its name, but between it and
the Grasse, which is also black brown, IS
the Oswegatchie with clear whit, waters :,
: The st. Regis again is black, but the Ra-
auette is white. The St. Lawrence is blue.
These various hues are not caused by mud,
Nor any opaque sediment. such as that which
makes the Mississippi coffee-coolored, but be-
without greatly impairing their transparency.
Streams which are fed from wooded ewamps
have sometimes a reddish hue, from the tan
min of fallen leaves When such water mixes
with water containing iron. black water
results, sometimes a perfect, though dilute
black ink.

FORGIVE THE WRONG

Dear boy, has some one done you i'll,
Don't hasten to resent it;
Oft those who seek swift revenge
Find leisure to repent it.
Though anger for moment rise,
Far better to subdue it;
One moment lent to passions sway
May leave you years to rue it.
Though anger loud for vengeance cries,
Again, again deny it;
Two wrongs will never make one right,
Howe'er you multiply it.
Although your wound may rankle sore,
Kind thoughts will soonest heal it;
Forgive the wrong with free goodwill,
And soon youth cease to feel it.

the American navy was brief and
~ brilliant, but unfortunate. Though
appointed "commander-in-c chief by
Congress, he was always officially addressed
by Washington as Admiral Hopkins" and
the title of Admiral was frequently applied to
him by the newspapers of the day.
The opening of the War of the Revolution
showed the Colonies the necessity of having
vessels of war with which to harass the enc
my, and Congress, taking the matter in hand,
as early as December, 1775, directed the build
ing OF thirteen ships of war, and, few days
later, supplemented this work by appointing
Eek Hopkins commander of all ves-
sells then in the service"
The head of the infant navy was a native
of Rhode Island, who had already been com
missioned brigadier general in the American
army; but he at once accepted his command
as commodore, or admiral" and in February,
1176, put to sea with four ships and three
sloops.
The Alfred was the flagship of the squadron
and Hopkins had for his first lieutenant
young man was was destined to cover the
American navy with imperishable glory
The name Of this officer was John Paul
Jones, and it was his hand that ran aloft
while the expedition rested in the Delaware,
the first ensign ever hoisted on board an
know, from print published in London at
the time, that this flag was a plain ground
with pine tree in the centre. Above the
tree were the words Liberty Tree and un-
derneath it "An Appeal to God"
AT the same time there was hoisted along
side the flag recently adopted by Congress as
the emblem OF the Colonies. This standard
contained thirteen stripes which were crossed
by rattiesnake, accompanied by the motto
Don't tread on me-"
With this little squadron, Eek Hopkins
sailed away TO annoy the more pretentious
vessels of the King. The Bahamas had been
Hopkins resolved to capture the forts of New
Providence.
1t was the first chance for the young navy
to distinguish itself, and officers and men
were eager for the fray. The descent upon
the town was SO well timed that it was taken
after q brief resistance, the marines, led by
Captain Nichols, especially distinguishing
themselves.
Nearly one hundred cannon and a great
quantity of powder fell into the hands Of the
Americans, and with these, and Governor
Brown as a prisoner, the little feet set sail
1t is believed that Admiral Hopkins was
anxious to spread abroad among his county
men the news of the first victory of the Amer
lean navy, and that this desire FASTENED his
return to the North.
He must have known, too, that his success
would cause the enemy to send after him his
most formidable vessels of war. On the re-
turn, the fleet, or portion of it, fell in with
British sloop and bomb brig, both of which
were captured, and Hopkins and his followers
received the thanks of Congress.
But few days later came about the event
which finally terminated the career which
had opened so brilliantly. II happened that
