the important battle of Monmouth, N. J. In
the latter battle her husband, a gunner, had
fallen, when she sprang to his place and fired
the cannon.
Molly had been carrying water to the SOL
diers from spring, the mercury being at 30
degrees in the shade. AS no one was able to
take his place when he became incapacitated,
it is said she dropped her pail, seized the
rammer and vowed that she would avenge
his DEATH She proved an excellent substi-
tute, her courage exciting the admiration OF
all, and on the following morning in her soiled
garments, General Greene presented her to
Washington, who praised her gallantry and
commissioned her sergeant.
1t is related she received many presents
from the French officers and that she would
sometimes pass along the French lines, cooked
hat in hand, and would get it almost filled with
coins. She is said to have served In the army
nearly eight years in all. She was placed on
tho list Of half-pay officers and for many years
after the Revolution lived at the Carlisle bar
racks, cooking and washing for the soldiers.
The house in which she spent her later
years in Carlisle was demolished in recent
years. She died January %, 1923, at the age
of seventy-nine. and was buried with military

weeks singing into the monograph
the songs of the Mojave dialects. The
Indian singer can sing songs in nine
different dialects and he knows over
three hundred different songs. Some
of the songs are along historical re-
citals and it takes several days for a
single song. Many of the songs have
been handed down from father to son
for generations, and it is hoped that
the early history of the Indian race in
the southwest may be amplif1ed
through these songs After the songs
have been sung in the dialect into
the monograph they will be translated
into English by Captain Jack Jones.
The university will then have not only
complete historical record, but it
will also possess a musical record
showing the cadences adopted by the
Indian singers and also the words they
use. This record may or may not be
of tremendous value in establishing
the connection between the American
Indian and oriental people.

The best-known Of all the American hero
ines of battle is Molly Pitcher, the story of
whose adventures, especially on the battle
field at Monmouth is one of the most pictur-
esque incidents of the revolutionary war. The
early life of Molly is somewhat vague. She
is supposed to have been born at Carlisle, Pa,
October 1S, 1744. Her right name was Mary
Ludwig and while the soldiers were only IA
miliar with her first name calling her Molly,
they soon applied the second, because wher-
ever they saw Molly they also saw the pitcher
with which she carried water to the sick and
wounded in the camps.
Several writer's say Molly came to this coun-
try from Germany with her parents, who were
among the Palatines The first information
we have of her is that she was employed as
maid in the family of General Irvine at Car
Isle, and on July "a, 1859, was married to
John Hays, barber. Her husband was COM
missioned a gunner in Proctor's First Pennsyi-
vania artillery, Continental line, December 1,
1775 and Molly followed him to the field. This
was common thing for the wives of private
soldiers to do, their time being passed in
laundering for the officers.
At the assault at Fort Clinton she showed
much pluck and also the following year In

firing of salutes On United States warships,
where guns of every caliber are at hand, from
which to pick and choose the saluting is
usually done with three-pounders and on shore
light artillery or field pieces of about the same
dimensions are utilized.
A salute should consist of specific number
of discharges having a certain significance,
and one or another of these regulation salutes
are fired when the noise-making is in the
hands of regular or volunteer soldiery, but in
dependent gun crews recruited for the Fourth
continue to claim extensive license in this
respect There are several different salutes
as prescribed in Uncle Sans books of regu-
lations that may be adopted for the Fourth
of July greeting. Perhaps the most extern
sively used of all is the American salute of
one gun for every state in the Union BY
allowing an interval of a minute and half be-
tween discharges this salute can be strung
out for more than an hour and at half-minute
intervals, which is slow enough to suit most
persons. it enables an interval of booming that
exceeds twenty minutes.
Another salute that is used on this holiday
and that is appropriate to the occasion is the
old Federal salute of thirteen guns-one Tor
each of the thirteen original states. This sa-
lutte is no longer used to any great extent
on other ceremonial occasions, but it comes

the Fourth of July salutes for noise making
was genuine fun for the men who did it years
ago, whereas it is no more nor less than
detail of the days work for Uncle Sans gun
ners. Indeed 1t may surprise some of our
readers to learn that there are artillerymen
in our regular army and men-o:war's-men on
our naval vessels who thoroughly detest the
roar of the big guns. 1t is not that they are
afraid or are lacking in experience, for some
of these men have been In the service for
years and have repeatedly faced death in a
variety of forms and yet many veteran
never gets over his dislike of the din at close
range.
But then the enthusiastic crowds that on
the Fourth of July hear the echoing salutes
in the distance have no idea of the shocks
administered to the men behind the gun when
a shooting iron' Of any size let's go. The
strain of waiting for each report and bracing
himself to withstand it is also severe tax
on the nervous system of the gunner to say
nothing of the unpleasant experience that fol-
lows the discharge when the gunner is struck
in the face as though by sharp gust Of wind
and sustains a Earring, particularly of the
spine, which may force him to have me-
mento all the remainder of the day in the
form of a severe headache. OF course guns
of the largest size are never employed in the

AS TOMMIE UNDERSTOOD II
Figure Out for Yourself Just What
Had Been Done With That
Dog Ordinance.

One year, in a certain town In
Maine, a tax was levied on dogs for
the first time. 1t caused quite an ex-
element among the dog owners, as
many of them had dogs good for moth
ing except for pets.
So the next year an article was in
serted in the town warrant to repeal
the dog law. All interested attended
the meeting.
When Mr.. w. came home his chill
dren, who had pet dog, met him,
eager to hear the result. Mr.. W. said:
well, boys! they have repealed
the dog law"
Little Tommie, four years old,
catching the words from his father
and entering into the spirit of the oc-
casion, rushed into where his grand
pa sat reading and shouted: Grand
pa, they have peeled the law dag!"
Have what?" asked grandpa.
'They have peeled the dog"
What did they do with the peel
ing?" asked grandpa.
Don't know. I'll ask papa" and he
legged it for the door.
Papa, what did they do with the
dog-peels?"
Buried Them" said papa, laughing.
Tommie rushed back.
"They put um on berries, grandpa!"
what did they do with the ber-
ries?" asked grandpa.
EFT um, l s'pose!" said Tommie,
thoughtfully.

as it is on Memorial day and on Washington's
birthday The salute Of minute guns Is pre-
scribed under certain conditions in the navy,
but the regulation interval between guns IN
all salutes including the national salute OF
twenty-one guns is five seconds. During the
firing of the salute all the officers and men
stand at attention. 1t is customary for for
eign warships anchored in American harbors
to fire salute in compliment to the United
States on the Fourth and the same courtesy
is usually shown by foreign forts and warships
when Yankee naval craft are spending the
eventful holiday in alien waters. Whenever
any foreign authorities or ships fire our ma
tional salute, the firing is no sooner concluded
than an officer from the American ship in
port makes an official call upon the foreign
officials and extends thanks.

Boston, Mass.-Pupils DESTROYS of
learning Spanish in the schools are

Columbia university, conferences were
held in that institution In the Ian
guage of Cervantes. The mayor of
Boston recently compelled all the

had died, but not on the day he had

lady was asked on oath as to the
date and hour of death and whether
he had died in a white shirt with

confessed that her LOGGER did not die

date of demise had been falsified on
account of his pension, which was al
