Evarts' Iona Whfn,

Years ago, says the New York Press,
when before the state court of appeals
Edward ]. Meegan, then stripping
lawyer, saw gaunt young man with
big head hurting sentences at the
judges with snap at the end of each
one, very much as the old-time stage
driver used to swing his whip lash
around his leaders heads. The SEN
tences came out thick and fast and
ponderous." says Meegan, but he was
dexterous, and each time the snap
went where he intended, right by the
judges ears. 1t was as interesting to
me as man casting for fish. asked
a lawyer beside me who the little chap
was. In establishment he replied:
Why, that is William NJ. Evarts, the
great William M. Evarts OF New
York"

TEACHERS "PET"

A Denver Hotel, that enjoys the
reputation and advantages of being
Teachers Pet, is the Albany. Dur
ing the annual holiday convention of
State Teachers the Albany will be the
favorite and will brook no rivals in the
affections of the visiting teachers:
The ideal central location was what
first won the hotel its place. During
the year it has made Improvements
that place it far ahead of any hotel in
the West, while still maintaining the
same rates.
The Albany has national reputation
for good music. The best musical
talent in Denver is engaged by the
management to furnish entertainment
for Albany guests.
During the Teachers Convention, the
Albany expects to devote great deal
of time and attention to teachers and
their wants. The result promises to
make the holiday delightful cne.

everybodys boys.
Mrs. Rich was great church worker
and good christian women, had she
lived till February 26, 1910, she would
have been 81 years old.
Conscious till the last, the end came
peaceably, this being of great consola-
ton to the friends and relatives who
now mourn her loss.
Her perfect confidence in her bible
could no better be expressed, than in
these her dying words;
Ills nice to live, but sweet to die"

EVANS SEES DEFECT
GRAVE WORDS OF WARNING FROM
"FIGHTING BOB"
Declares Ammunition Of WarshIps
Would Be Exhausted in Two
Hours Of Fighting - Navy
Short of Torpedoes.

Short of Torpedoes.
"The question Of supplying ammuni'
ton to the American fleet during bat
tie is one that will require most care
full thought, for 1t is practically GER
tain that at the present rate of firing
the heavy guns will exhaust their sup
ply in the first two hours of a battle"
1t is declared by Rear Admiral Robley
ID. Evans, in Hampton's Magazine.
Discussing some of the gravest dan
gers to which our battleships Will be
exposed in time of war, Fighting Bob
adds that naval battles Of the future
will begin at range OF about ten
thousand yards and the result Will de-
pend on turret guns, their ability to
hit and their power to resist or stand
punishment. At the range stated
battleship appears very small OBJ
ject to shoot at and the whole ship
must be taken as target for the
guns to aim at.
The idea Of shooting at any par
ticular gun port or men, or single
turret, will not be considered, but the
gun pointer Will be directed to aim al
the ship amldships, that is, at the mid
die part OF the SNIP or at one end OF
the other with the nope OF striking
the turrets or thelr guns. Shells that
enter the broadslde ports VIII 40 NO
harm to the personnel, and only tnose
that enter the turrets VIII prove great
ly destructive. lifting gun ports VIII
be entirely accidental.
"The gun ports will stand the same
chance Of being hit as any other equal
area on the side of the ship and no
more, no matter how well the enemy
can shoot. Thls area, therefore, De-
comes a matter OF great Importance,
but only SO far as the turrets are con-
cerned, because the broadside guns
Will not be used in battle at SUCH
ranges, and the men for these guns
Will not be exposed. me damage TO
the ship from shells entering these
ports might be great, but the loss OF
life would be small
Taking up the criticism to congress
of the alleged defective gun turrets on
the Kearsarge and Kentucky, Admiral
Evans says:
"If. as stated, the openings of these
two ships are ten feet square. the ap-
plication of the simplest rule of arith-
metic shows that about each would be
an open space of 100 square feet. AS
each turret has two guns, the open
space on the face of each turret would
be 200 square feet. If this were true,
the guns would be practically standing
out IN the open, for the whole face of
the turret contains only about two
hundred square feet of surface.
"Those who have seen many shells
explode on ships in battle may. I
think. form a very fair idea of what
will happen in the future. During tho
bombardment of San Juan. Porto Rico.
during the Spanish-American war
three shells came onto the upper deck
of the Iowa in rapid succession and all

termine afterward by puttine frag-

GENERAL HINTS TO BEEKEEPERS,
BY Joel Johnson.

There is no business of which know
that will give as quick and as large re-
turns as beekeeping in a good location,
intelligently and industriously followed
He who believes that bees will work
while he sleeps" and who is not willing
to work and work hard, had better pass
the business by, for carelessness and neg
lect are as sure to bring failure as is the
shadow to follow the substance.
First of all is the selection of suit
able location and any such location where
there are many colonies in the woods can
be safely settled upon as a good one.
Almost any section of that great area
along the Mississippi and Yazoo rivers
can be safely selected as good location.
1t would take too much space to treat
separately of each honey-producing plant
along these rivers, but most prominent
among them | would name willow, elm,
white clover, black locust, fruit bloom in
spring, wild grape and almost all vines
in the summer and golden rod and aster
known with us as blue stem in fall
This by no means takes in all; in fact,
not half, and it is suggested that the

and struck the floor running, and it
was the King of the West whom she
was after, though the King of the East
left so suddenly that he did not know
this. He went out of the door going
due north and he came into his back
door, through the summer kitchen, the
hallway, the bathroom the best par
lor, over the center table and out into
the hall Just in time to sea his own
coat tails disappearing out of the
front door. AS he sat on the back
steps that night knocking the sand out
of his shoes there was a royal flush
of pleasure on his cheek and he told
himself: We'll l got the kibosh on
both of them all rightsky! And l am
just bound to be called The Roosevelt
of my generation The trouble with
me has been that l never had the
right incentive to make that run be-
fore to-day"
With sigh of satisfied ambition he
went upstairs, slapped his wife, kicked
the cat and went to bed, and lived
happily forever after.
