SANTA CRUZ. May St is almost
definitely determined that Admiral
Evans will board his flagship, the Con-
necticut off Monterey instead of at
Santa Cruz Tuesday morning. This
afternoon Admiral Thomas wired his
senior officer at Paso Robles suggesting
the change Of plans, as the bay at San
ia Cruz has been decidedly choppy
during the last few days. and it is
feared that to cross it would be dis
agreeable experience for the COM
mander In chief. An approval of Adj
miral Thomas plan by Admiral Evans
is anticipated.
The torpedo boat fotilla will arrive
in port tomorrow morning and will
anchor off Santa Cruz between the
squadron and the shore. In the f1otilla
are the Whipple, the Thuxton, the Hull,
the Hopkins, the Stewart and the Law
renee. Lieutenant Commander Cone is

A Catch Question.

Of Bishop Short, who held the see of St. Asaph, many curious stories are told. Occasionally he put questions to candidates for ordination that appar. netly had no connection with the dis. charge of their parochlal duties. They tested probably their wit or tact, two necessary qualifications to public men. but nothing more. One sucb question proposed by the bishop : .s the fol lowing: Which has ths greatest mum. Der of legs, a cat or no cat?"
 AS might be expected, this create a litter, but the bishop would not take a laugh as tAe answer, and consequently he repeated the question and desired some one t" solve the problem At las, one Of the candidates, smiling. said II should t,tink, my lord. a sat."
 "No,' retorted the bishop: there you are wrong, for cat has four legs, and no cat has fYc." London Telegraph

Hussia's Great Library.

One of the proudest monuments to the memory of that benevolent despot Peter the Great, Is the imperial Ii brary of Russia, established by him ir 1114. Present ranking places it third among the worlds great libraries, pre-, ceded only by the National library at Paris and that of the British museum, at London. It contains million and ;, half volumes and 26,00O manuscripts The most important accession it eve. received was probably at the time ot the suppression of the Society of Jesus Tn Russia. when most of the Jesuls collections were transferred to the in. perial library. Among them was the famous collection of Count Zalrls.1., consisting of 2Go,00O volumes and 1o.

 lhe oGffed Out Cheat

The pulled out chest is a delust,n which has succumbed to scientific knowledge of the human body" said A drill officer. Tt came into existence purely for show reasons or from false analogy. It was seen that men deen ID the chest were strong men, and the old drill sergeants probably imagined mat by making men throw out their chests they would make them strong as well as make them look strong which Is complete mistake Instead or strengthening a man, pulling his cnest tends to weaken him. as if throws a strain upon the heart. We now tell men to be sure and not purr out their chests. If you puff out your chest and do dumbbell exercise you are to hold the breath. That strains the heart. Any exercise tbat prevents breathing freely is bad. Knotted mus cles are also wrong. You see a man with Immense chest muscles and per. maps you think he is really an ideally trained man, but such muscles simply bind the chest and tie the heart down." Reader Magazine.
