collection the bugie on which, accord
ing to accepted tradition, the order
was sounded for the charge Of the
Light brigade at the battle Of Bala-
klava In 1854. Mr.. Aston bought the
bugle as well us the flag, paying S4,o5O
for the latter. and presented both to
the Royal United Service museum,
which was the same thing as present
ing them to the British government,
since the museum is supported by the
government.
The captured Chesapeake was bro
ken up about ninety years ago, and
part Of her timbers went into the con-
struction of dwelling houses In the
town Of Portsmouth, England. After
the Shannon and the Chesapeake had
bombarded each other at close range
for five minutes and had then come
alongside and been dashed together
Captain Lawrence. already seriously
wounded, gave the command for his
bugler to call the boarders. The bu-
gler was found In hiding and so over
come with fear that he could not
sound the command. Then 1t was
that mutiny, signs of which Lawrence
discovered just as he was about to
give battle, was manifested. The delay
was fatal. and the English boarded
the American vessel just as Lawrence
was being carried below. repeating.
Don't give up the ship!" When an
English midshipman attempted to pull
down the American colOrs and place
above them the union jack. the hal
yards became twisted and led to the
stars and stripes appearing above the
English colors. Fire was then reopen
ed by the officer In command Of the
Shannon. and the British midshipman
who had pulled down the American
colors was killed. his head being taken
N by a shell. The flags were at last
reversed, firing by the Shannon ceased.
and the Americans surrendered. the
battle lasting about eleven minutes.
The Chesapeake flag originally meas
ured four feet by four feet six inches.
and eight-tenths of its surface was
taken up by fifteen stars on blue
field. All Of the flags stripes except
two are now missing.

The president has adopted a policy Of
not appointing to the federal bench
man over fifty years Of age except un-
der unusual circumstances; hence his
determination to name Mr.. Purdy In
stead Of the lawyer favored by the
Minnesota members Of the senate. The
rise Of Mr.. Purdy to his present posi-
ton Of influence In his profession was
not anticipated by those who watched
him as boy In Summit county, o. He
finally obtained good education, grad
uating from the University of Mime
sofa and from the college Of law Of
that institution. But as youngster he
was considered rather lacking in ambi-
ton. His father had a pottery shop,
and young Purdy worked in 1t. He had
no desire at the time to be anything
but maker OF pots, but his mother in
sisted that he should go to high school,
and after that came college. Speaking
of his work in the pot shop. the jurist
of the future once told Of his earnings
there as follows:
II was employed on Saturdays and
during vacations as ball maker. In
those days each potter had a boy to
weigh his clay and to work out the all
bubbles by cutting 1t to pieces with q
wire and then kneading it into a com
pact mass. l picked up the trade in
that fashion. and my father gave me q
wheel and a journeyman's wages. II
had jugs or crooks I would make about
81 a day. One Saturday earned s.
with tops for SNUFF Jars. That was sc
exceptional. however, that have never
forgotten It."

The Eleventh..

Archbishop Usher was once washed
ashore from a wreck off the coast of
Ireland. Almost destitute of clothing,
he wandered to the house of a church
dignitary and asked for shelter and
aid of a brother clergyman.
How many commandments are
there?" inquired the other. thinking to
detect an impostor.
81 can at once satisfy you that 1 am
not the ignorant impostor you take me
for" replied the archbishop. There
are eleven commandments"
NO." was the sneering comment:
there are but ten commandments in
my Bible. Tell me the eleventh and
will relieve you"
There it is" said the archbishop;
ga new commandment / give unto
you, that We love one another"

Teresa Berger, the belle of the bell
ringers in her girlhood; secondly, he
had the years long friendship and in

thirdly, he was the father of a family
of children in whom was centered his

business cares and pleasures home,
where he was always sure lof ready
and generous sympathy. For several
years he was treasurer of the Union
Square theater in New York One
evening at dinner, in the presence of
his little daughter, Marie, he men
toned to Mrs. Lynch that the gross
receipts of the week had risen to an
unprecedented height. The next day
Marie asked to be taken to the matt

Gunpowder.

The explosion OF gunpOwder is divid-
ed into three distinct stages, called the
ignition, Inflammation and combustion.
The ignition is the setting on fire of
the first grain, while the Inflammation
is the spreading of the fame over the
surface of the powder from the point
of ignition. Combustion is the burn
ing up of each grain. The value of
gunpowder is due to the fact that
when subjected to sufficient heat it be-
comes a gas which expands with
frightful rapidity. The so called ex-
plosion that takes place when a match
is touched to gunpowder is merely
chemical change, during which there
Is a sudden evolution of gases from
the original solid. 1t has been cal
culated that ordinary gunpowder on
exploding expands about 5000 times
or fills a space this much larger as a
gas than when in a solid form. When
this chemical change takes place in
q closed vessel the expansion may be
made to do a work like that of forcing
a projectile along the bore of the
great gun or test tube in the line Of
least resistance.

Why Snow Is White.

The reason snow is white is that all
the elementary colors are blended to-
gether in the radiance that is thrown
off from the surface of the crystals,
which may be examined in such way
as to detect these colors before they
are mingled together TO give the eye
the impression of whiteness. The
wilderness of the snow is also in some
degree referable to the quantity of air
which is left among the frozen parti-
cles. Considerably more than a thou
sand distinct forms of snow crystals
have been enumerated. These minute
crystals and prisms reflect all the COM
pound rays of which white light con-
sists- Pink and various other tints may
be seen reflected from sheets of snow
under certain angles of sunshine. So
much light is reflected by snow In the
day that the eyes often suffer from it,
and enough is given in the night to
guide the traveller in the absence Of
artificial light or moonlight.-Chicago
Tribune.

Condor Individuality.

We had the best chance of studying
the colors Of the condor head. The bill
was horn color, and the red skin of the
head extended down, covering it about
halfway. The legs were tan. but on
each knee was a patch of red On the
breast of each bird the skin was blood
red and could be seen occasionally
when the breast feathers were spread
and the birds were preening. Both had
light colored wing bars, and the pri-
maries were well worn The skin on
the throat hung loose. and the lower
mandible fitted close under the upper
The chin was orange red. and below
this on the neck was a strip of green
ish yellow merging into the orange
about the sides and back of the neck
The top and front of the head were
red, but between the eyes was a small
patch Of black feathers, and these ex-
tended down in front of the eye into
the orange red of the cheek The pupil
OF the eye was black, but the iris was
deep and red and conspicuous The

A Fatal Austrian FLAG.

Once there was an epidemic of plague
at Odessa, in Russia, which lasted
more than a year. 1t had a most re-
markable origin, being due to q fatal
flag. An Austrian vessel arrived at
Odessa, bringing one of the crew who
had died during the voyage. The sail
or was duly inferred In the Catholic
cemetery at the port, and at the fu-
neral the Austrian Tag was carried by
two seamen. On their way back to
the vessel the men entered a great
number of saloons and laid down the
flag while drinking. A very short
time afterward the sailors who had
carried the flag died, and before long
st was found that people were i'll in
all the houses where the men had call
