SAVED FOR USEFUL LIFE.

George Sirian, gunner, U. S. N,
who died in 1891, was a young boy
at the outbreak of the Greek reyoIu-
ton, and one day, as he and his
mother were on the beach of their
island home, they we're warned of the
approach of a band of Turks. The
mother forced her boy into a boat
that was near, and, placing him on
the bottom, thrust him off, remain
ing herself to await her fate and
distract attention from the child. He
drifted from the shore and was final
ly rescued by boat from one of the
American cruisers then in the Med
iterranean. Mr.. Sirian entered the
navy as a boy and by good conduct
became a warrant officer, serving his
adopted country with credit until his
death.

MULE IS SURE OF HIS JOB
To BE Retained as Malnstay and
Backbone Of Army In Spite
Of Modern Motor Trucks.

Major General Carter, reporting
ON the lessons learned from the mill
tary maneuvers in Texas, declares
that while motor trucks have been
found available in Transporting army
supplies over passably good roads
through country ordinarily smooth
the old reliable mule is the boy for
use when it comes to mountain climb
ing and packing trails. The mule,
therefore, will not be abolished, but
will be retained as the mAinstay and
backbone of the regular army, the
power that can always be relied upon
to have the bread wagon on hand and
the camp equipment in reach when
the days fighting is done and the
army is ready to eat and sleep. The
mule is not much to rave about for
speed, and does not rank high in
beauty show, but for patient toll
and dependableness he is there seven
days in the week, accomplishing,
faithful and efficient. New kinds of
arms and ammunition may be adopt
ed; changed methods of fighting,
marching and campaigning may
come into vogue; improvements in
forts and in rations may be invented
or discovered, but there is nothing
new, changed or improved in the
army mule. He is the same yester-
day, today and in the next war, the
one absolutely finished, unimprov-
able produce of the ages. He can
only be abolished by the adoption of
that universal peace for which we all
hope and pray, but which none of us
really expects in the near future.
And then the army mule will not be
abolished, but only transferred to the
corn field and the cotton patch.
Here's to the army mule. Long may
he kick nd5pull.

UNCLE HIRAM TO HIS NEPHEW
He Hopes the Boy Will Turn Out to
Be Good Judge of Men, When
His Turn Comes.

"Stevey, my boy" said Uncle Hiram
to his hopeful nephew, Il hope 1t will
turn out that you are a good judge
of men, for by virtue of that quality
a man is able in effect to multiply
his own power.
1T is a common thing to hear
people say that the more pay a man
gets the less work he does, and as
10 the doing of actual labor this may
be true; somebody else saws the wood
While he sits b. the fire.
LAS a matter of fact there are plen-
ty OF men high up WHO still work
hard, and all CT them certainly worke d
hard when they were younger, and If
they are doing less actual labor now
1t ia because they are good judges
Of men, able to pick out for the bust
ness under their direction just the
right men to do the work and carry
it forward successfully.
|. Really II Is in the exercise of this
gift that we find the greatest value in
a manager; II is Just this that makes
him worth his high pay. We want
him to sit around and take things
easy and give himself time to think
and keep his head clear. We don't
want him to get out and chop down
trees; we want him to be able to
select men who can d. that work to
the greatest advantage and with the
greatest economy.
Some Of us know men on sight
and some don't. hope, Stevey, that
you will turn out to- be a good judge
Of men"

PARIS LIKES WHITE CANARY
New soreoird Is Nest Popular In the
cay Capital and Fetches
High Price.

The Partisan has m amiable little
weakness ior the canary Every street
echoes 20 the song OF this noisy bird,
and nt the holiday time, when families
are away, t1ere are concierges whose
MISE ,r less restricted quarters arc
positively numbered with cages Of
csnaI.s left IN their charge by alb
sent tenants.
Bu, in or ont of the season the bird
mcrlct is he'd every Sunday in the
yo5r in Tie Ci,y Island and lively
trade IN can1ries Is always done. The
test sorgete-s in the market come
from an old house close by the market,
where lives. an ornithologist who
spends his life IN teaching canaries to
sing. and he has now. after some years
of effort, produced a pure white canary
with a song as powerful and sweet
as any yellow or green bird ever
sold
The supply of the white canary be-
ing at present strictly limited, those
that were sold last Sunday fetched
comparatively high prices but they
had all the honors of the day, and for
the few hours that they adorned the
stall they were the center of an adj
miring and wondering crowd. There
are plenty of canaries that are nearly
white but this bird is as white as
a dove, without any speck of yellow on
his plumage.
The Partisan has his own special
way of transporting his canaries to
the cage that awaits them at his home.
The bird is placed in a small paper
bag snd pinned to the lapel of his coat.

CHINESE AND JAPANESE BELLS.

Consul s. L. Graeey, stationed at
Foochow, calls attention in the Daily
Consular Reports to the soft and
smooth tone of the bells in use at
temples and monasteries in China
and Japan. The quality of the tone
is due not only to the use Of excel
lent material, but also to the, abb
sence of iron clappers. The bells are
never swung, but are always suspend
ed in fixed frame, and are sounded
by striking them on the outer edge
with a wooden mallet.
