Thoughts by The Way.

Lots of things do not seem to be
worth while, but 1t Is not safe to
look at them In just that way.
Keep on doing.
AS to people saying a few .un.
KIND words about ms, we must
not mind that any more than the
old church steeple minds the
rocks cawlng about it.
A man caunot be l IS highest

those things which are best in
him. Bernard Smell.
A good honest laugh at good
honest joke or bit of sarcasm
rubs out the gathering wrinkles
or care; but an illtempered Joke
is like a poisoned arrow, which
makes a wound, and leaves its
poison after it Is withdrawn.
Don't when people say nice
things to you, think that they
must necessarily be insincere.
1t is quite as natural for some
persons to put their nice thoughts
about you into words as IL is for
them to breathe.

speaker roundly denounced the assas-
sin. This part OF the address was re-

Accident Occurred When Men
Were Firing Gun

Manila March Is Report that a
fatal accident had occurred on the
United States Cruiser Charleston was
confirmed today Eight men were kill
ed and several slightly injured dur
ing a practice at sea off Olongapo.
The bfeech lock of a three inch gun
blew off and I'm fleeing across the
deck moved down the men. Seven Of
the victims were Instantly killed.
The eighth died as the Charleston was
hurrying to Cavite. Admiral Mason,
CHIEF of the ordinance, is of the opin-
ION that the accident resulted from a
bent or broken firing pin. When the
breech lock was swung heavily to
close the breech on the cartridge,
which is of brass, the projecting pin
probably struck the primer Admiral
Mason believed, and exploded the
charge before the block was locked in
place. The entire charge he thinks,
flew out backward tearing off the
block and hurting 1t among the sailors,
who probably had gathered in the rear
to watch the gun practice. Such acct
dents are rare but are not without
precedent.
