CRUISERS TO FAR EAST.



Washington, D. C.--Two big Amer
lean armored cruisers, the Tennessee
and the Montana, have received rush
orders to proceed to Turkish waters to
look after the interests Of American
citizens.
The cruisers are now in reserve at
the Philadelphia navy yard, the Ten
nessee being the flagship Of Rear Ad-
miral Austin M. knight. They
should be ready to sail within "a
hours and under ordinary circum-
stances should reach Constantinople
about November rs.
Full compliments of marines will
be carried by the two cruisers wher
they sail for Turkish waters. Orders
were issued for assembling the re-
quired number at Philadelphia. From
the Norfolk navy yard 400 marines
will be drawn.
The first disposition of the State de-
| partment had been to refrain from
sending any American warships to thu

THE FOOLISH RABBIT
One Of the Tales Which Have Come
Down to Us from Ancient India

Once upon a time a rabbit was
asleep under a palm tree.
All at once he woke up and thought
"What if the world should break up!
What then would become of me?"
At that moment some monkeys
dropped a cocoanut 1t fell down on
the ground just back of the rabbit.
Hearing the noise, the rabbit said
to himself: The earth is all break
ing upl"
And he jumped up and ran just as
fast as he could, without even look
ing back to see what made the noise.
Another rabbit saw him running,
and called after him, 'What are you
running so fast for?"
Don't ask me-" he cried
But the other rabbit ran after him,
begging to know what was the mat
ter
Then the first rabbit said: Don't
you know? The earth is all breaking
up!'
And on he ran, and the second rab-
bit ran with him.
The next rabbit they met ran with
them when he heard that the earth
was all breaking up.
One rabbit after another Joined
them, until there were hundreds Of
rabbits running as fast as they could
80.
They passed a deer. calling out to
him that the earth was all breaking
up. The deer then ran with them.
The deer called to fox to come
along, because the earth was all
breaking up.
On and on they ran and an elephant
joined them.
At last the lion saw the animals run
ming and heard their cry that the
earth was all breaking up.
He thought there must be some
mistake, so he ran to the foot of a
hill in front of them and roared three
times.
This stopped them, for they knew
the voice of the king of beasts and
they feared him.
"Why are you running so fast?"
asked the lion.
"Oh, king lion,' they answered him
the earth is all breaking up"
who saw it breaking up?" asked
the lion.
q didn't" said the elephant. ASK
the fox-he told me about it,"
81 didn't" said the fox.
"The rabbits told me about it" said
the deer.
One after another of the rabbits
said: Il did not see it, but another
rabbit told me about it,"
At last the lion came to the rabbit
who had first said that the earth was
all breaking up.
rs it true that the earth is all
breaking up?' the lion asked the fool.

woke up and thought, what would
become Of me if tlre earth should all
break up?" At that very moment |
heard the sound Of the earth break

Then said the lion, you and

earth began to break up, and see
what is the matter"
So the lion put the little rabbit on
his back, and away they went like
the wind. The other animals waited
for them at the foot of the hill.
The rabbit told the lion when they
were near the place where he slept,
and the lion saw just where the rab-
bit had been sleeping.
He saw, too, the cocoanut that had
fallen to the ground near by. Then
the lion said to the robbit 1T must
have been the sound OF the eoeoanut
falling to the ground that you head
You foolish rabbit"
And the lion ran back to the ether
animals and told them all about 1t.
If it had not been for a wise king
of beasts they might be running still.

First OF Week, Sprin Term.

Lindsey-Wilson Training School has
just finished its first week of the
spring term, and we are glad to say
that this has been one of the most
favorable openings in the history of
that school. From the standpoint of
bOarders it has never had so many to
come in the first week. In the earlier
days in would already be filled past its
capacity but with the present facilities
it will be able to take care of all who
shall come. With forty girls and sixty
boys to come to meals at once, one may
imagine that there is even now some-
thing doing when the dinner bell rings.
1t should be a source of pride and
satisfaction to every citizen of Column
bia to know that Lindsey Wilson is
doing so well. Every new pupil who
comes to town adds to its reputation,
and we should 90 all in our power to
make Columbia fit place for a school
of this character and then stand by it.
