barrels. Pictures and mirrors should
be boxed. Zach piece Of glass and
china must be wrapped separately in
paper; then layer of excelsior should
be placed in the bottom of the barrel.
Lay in each article, packing the excel
sior into every crack and crevice be-
tween. then more china and excelsior
until the barrel is almost full. Excel
sior Is pressed in at the top when the
lid IS secured. Properly packed the
dishes will be so firm they cannot
move For the pictures it will be nee
essary to get a carpenter to make a
rough case. This done. a layer of ex-
celsior should cover the bottom before
the first picture is laid in. Each frame
may be wrapped in any thick, old, soft
material. such as curtains, portieres,
comfortables, etc. If these are not
forthcoming. then plenty of paper will
be substitute. Place layers of excel
sior between the pictures and to fill up
any spaces. Place excelsior on the top
and when the box appears to be quite
full nail on the cover. Mirrors are

Swiss Naval Mars.

References to the Swiss navy are
usually jocular, but it is none the less
a fact that ships of war once floated
and even fought on the waters of the
lake of Geneva. The great fleet was
that of the Duke of Savoy, who at the
beginning Of the fourteenth century
maintained number of war galleys
armed with rams and protected by
turrets and propelled by crew Of
oarsmen varying in number from for
ty to seventy-two. These vessels be-
sieged Versoix and even blockaded
Geneva. But Geneva also had a fleet
which helped in the capture of Chilon
in 1886, and when the Bernese an
nexed the canton of Vaud they, too,
had their flotilla. Their largest vessel
was the Great Bear, with Ga oarsmen,
8 guns and $50 fighting men.-West-

just outside the hotel doors. Instantly

candle, lighted it and carried it out on
the balcony. Almost as soon as that
candle was on the balcony railing we
three Americans were beside it, ques-

something unusual was going on.
eve saw procession of many peo-
pie, led by two priests, coming down
the street, each person bearing in his
hand lighted candle. They stopped
In front of a house facing the hotel.
and Salvador told US that somebody
was dying there and they were pray
ing for his soul. Up and down the
street as far as we could see on every
balcony railing was burning either a
candle or kerosene lamp.
"From the absorbed interest Of the
people gathered in front Of open doors
and windows of the afflicted house the
sufferer was apparently trying to die
in full view Of the spectators.
presently the bell began to ring
again, the procession formed once
more, and they all moved up the street,
Salvador telling US in explanation that
there was second person dying and
they were now going to pray for him.
