FL cAMILo OF WEsT POINT
Ancient Spanish Cannon That Was Captured by the American Troops
 at Monterey.

Among the old guns from past wars on Trophy Point there is one that is fondly remembered by every graduate of the West Point military academy It is "El Camilo," literally The Camel" relic of the Mexican war. but dating far back of that
 This antiquated piece of ordnance. which is three parts silver and painted a light green, bears its name and the royal coat of arms of Spain over an inscription relating that 1t was the property of the Regiment of the Gold en Fleece, commissioned under Ferd- inand and Isabella at the time when Columbus set out on his famous voy- age to discover a new world. It would be interesting to know what the Span fish grandees would have thought if they could have foreseen that the very cannon which probably thundered God speed to the explorer would one day be captured by the unborn nation of the undiscovered continent to which Columbus was bound The ancient gun was probably brought to Mexico as part of the armament of a Spanish ship, and many years later was pressed into service in the Mexican army, where the "sinews of war" were al ways at premium. It was taken at Monterey by the Americans and sent to West Point as the most appropriate place for such an interesting relic. In former years it was mounted and pointed its tapering. old-fashioned muzzle out over the glassy Hudson just as wickedly as 1t did when the gunners of the old Spanish regiment used to send the fire leaping from it's throat, but lately 1t has been dis mounted and laid with other trophy guns in a long row on the grass, where it affords a seat for the tired excursionist

Smoke pIssIpated.

The practical way to obviate the an noyance of smoke is to dissipate it before 1t leaves the chimney top in a gaseous volume. A German professor believes he has found way to secure this result without chemical or me chanical aid.
 Described in Die Umschau. the pro- fessor's chimney is perforated on all sides by what might be called little horizontal windows. As the furnace smoke and gases rise they are mixed with air, both before and after emer- gence, by the eddy forming action of the wind passing through the open ings.
 From the time the smoke enters the chimney and reaches the height of the lower openings, which receive the wind from any quarter. the intermin- gling begins, and in each stage of it's upward movement the volume be- comes less and less At the mouth of the chimney the outpour Is compara- lively small and so diluted with air that only sheet of dark blue smoke waving like a flag to the leeward is seen, where, under other conditions, there would be cloudlike column of dense black smoke a mile long.
 Chimneys constructed on the pro fessor's plan look not unlike widowed towers.

Prehistoric Art.

On the side of a steep down in the oId town of Cerne Abbas. Dorset, Eng land. a huge figure of a man appears cut deeply in the hard turf. It Is creation of a period hidden in the mists of antiquity. The body resem- bles that of the simian, the arms are unusually long and outstretched, as are the legs. The right hand grasps the handle of an enormous club, and the general attitude suggests pursuit of game.
 The head seems sunk between the shoulders, and the face. which is roughly cut, exhibits an uncanny leer.
 Students of types attribute "the giant" as the Dorset figure Is called. to the bronze age. The figure has been cared for throughout the cen turies of its existence. Originally it is supposed to have been regarded as bringing good luck to the people dur ing the Celtic and early English epochs. It receives attention now on account of it's quaintness and age.
 The Dorset giant is incised in the turf after the manner of the Long Man of Wilmington and the White Horse of Berkshire and elsewhere The turf Is so hard that the outlines of the figure have been preserved in tact for many centuries

DAINTIEs THAT HAVE HIGH
 PLACE ACROSS THE WATER.
Roast Beef MarseiIIaise Is New Way to Serve the Roast-Perfection of Ia Mode-Sweetbread
 Outlets.

Roast Beef MarseiIIaise.-Have the ribs of a two rib roast removed and roast dressed up to retain the juices. Many persons prefer the bones left on, and while it is harder to cut this way. 1t makes a juicier bite. Put half cup of olive oil into a pan and heat it. Then add the meat, well salted and peppered, cooking either rare or well done as preferred. The French way is well done, obut that goes according to taste.
 Make a sauce as follows: Mince three onions and color in oil, simmer ing until tender. When slightly brown add two tablespoons of vinegar, a tea spoon of mustard, salt and pepper and half pint of we'll favored stock of bouillon. Boil for three minutes and pour over the roast, serving in a deep platter.
 Beef a la Mode.-Have a juicy piece of top sirloin cut for this purpose and have it larded with salt pork. Brown in an iron pot, using butter and bacon mixed When the meat is brown add soup bouquet, two cloves of garlic and large onion, whole; adding also calf's foot, split in several pieces. This makes the gravy gelatinous. Add enough water to cover, then set on the back of the stove, simmering at the boiling point, but do not allow to bub- ble, as that extracts all the juice and makes the meat dry and -unpalatable. It should be soft and full of juice. About half an hour before it is done add some small carrots. Some per sons add potatoes, but beef a la mode, according to the French style, has no potatoes, these being cooked on the side It is just as good cold, sliced with the gravey jellied, served on the platter. The gravy should be strained, eliminating the onions and any spices that may be floating loose.
 Sweetbread CutIets.-Wash, parboil, and simmer for 20 minutes one pair of sweetbreads, adding a slice of onion, one of lemon and bay leaf, with teaspoon of salt. Drain well and when cool remove the skin and mem brane and cut in large slices. Make sauce with four tablespoons of butter, six tablespoons of flour and one cup of milk, season well with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Cool this also and then put two slices of meat together with sauce, coating it well. Bread and fry like croquettes and serve with green peas or a creole sauce.
 Creole Sauce.-Cut in pieces one small onion and two or three green peppers (after removing seeds), and fry slowly in butter. When tender add several tomatoes (also cut in pieces) and cook ten minutes longer. Season well and serve very hot.

Rubber PavIna.

The prophecy of the president of the rubber exhibition, held at the Agri- cultural hall, that the time will soon come when the price of rubber would be low enough to make rubber paving an accomplished fact in the streets of London, is excellent hearing. When ever one comes across one or other of the few specimens of rubber paving which are to be found at present in the metropolis, one experiences a sense of grateful relief. But up till now a wider use of this material for such a purpose has been prohibited by the question of expense, although 1t has been thoroughly recognized that as a substitute for the ordinary ma terials used in paving the streets, rub Der offers enormous attractions. If 1t could be employed in large quantities in certain localities. London, one i'm agines. would be happier place. For there is no doubt that, as things are. the increase of traffic must be attend ed with increase of noise, and that, though Londoners may become dulled, by painful habit, to the ceaseless roar, the nerves of the community are cer- tafnIy. even if unconsciously, in a state of tension. At the same time. however, we trust that the evil will not now be allowed to go unchecked simply because there is a chance that the adoption of rubber paving is likely to cure 1t in the future--London Globe.

SURF RlpING IS FINE
KANAKA STANDS AMIDST THE
 SWIFT RUNNING WAVES.
Jack London's Vivid Description of This South Sea Amusement as
 Practiced at Waikiki Beach.

Much has been written about the native sport of surfriding in the South seas, but the following description is novel and very vivid. The locality referred to is Waikiki beach, near Honolulu:
 The trees grow right down to the salty edges of things, and one sits in their shade and looks seaward at a majestic surf laundering in on the beach to ones very feet. Half mile out, where is the reef, the white head ing combers thrust suddenly skyward out of the placid turquoise blue and come rolling in to shore.
 And suddenly. out there where a big smoker lifts skyward, rising like seagod from out of the welter of spume and churning white, on the giddy, toppling, overhanging and downfalling, precarious crest appears the dark head of a man. Swiftly he rises through the rushing white. His black shoulders, his chest, his loins- his limbs-all is abruptly projected on ones vision. Where but the moment before was only the wide desolation and invincible roar, is now man, erect, full statured, not struggling frantically in that wild movement. not buried and crushed and buffeted by those mighty monsters. but standing above them all, calm and superb poised on the giddy summit, his feet buried in the churning foam, the salt smoke rising to his knees. and all the rest of him in the free air and flashing sunlight, and he is flying through the air, flying forward, flying fast as the surge on which he stands. He is Mercury-a brown Mercury. His heels are winged. and in them is the swift ness of the sea. In truth, from out of the sea he has leaped upon the back of the sea, and he is riding the sea that roars and bellows and cannot shake him from it's back. But no frantic outreaching and balancing is his He Is impressive, motionless as a statue carved suddenly by some mir acle out. of the seas depths from which he rose. And straight on toward shore he flies on his winged heels and the white crest of the breaker. There is a wild burst of foam, long multi tudinous rushing sound as the breaker falls futile and spent at your feet; and there. at your feet steps calmly ashore Kanaka.
