Little Stories for Bedtime.


Old Granny Fox watched him. Must
have tremendous appetite to be hunting
for beetles after eating my chicken"
muttered she. Then she jumped out in
front Of Jimmy Skunk, her eyes snap
ping, her teeth showing. and the hair on
her back standing on end so as to make
her look very fierce. But all the time old
to get too near to Jimmy Skunk
Where's my chicken?" snarled old
Granny Fox. and she looked very, very
fierce
Jimmy Skunk looked up as If very much
| surprised Hello, Granny Foxr' he ex-
claimed. Have you lost chicken?'
you've stolen it. You're thief, Jim
my Skunk snapped Granny Fox.
Words can never make black white:
Before you speak be sure you're right"
, said Jimmy Skunk I'm not a thief"
You are"' cried Granny, working her
self into a great rage.
I'm not"
You are.'
All the time Jimmy Skunk was chuck
ling to himself. and the more he chuckled
the angrier grew old Granny Fox. And
all the time Jimmy Skunk kept moving
toward old Granny Fox and Granny Fox
kept backing away, for, like all the other
little meadow and forest people. she has
a wholesome respect for Jimmy Skunk s
little bag of scent.
Now. backing off that way. she couldn't
see where she was going, and the first
thing she knew she had backed into a
bramble bush. which tore her skirts and
scratched her legss. OUCH" cried old
Granny Fox.
"Ha! ha! ha! laughed Jimmy Skunk
That's what you get for calling me
names"

BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Granny Fox couldn't believe her own
eyes No, sir, she couldn't believe her
own eyes and she rubbed them two or
three times to make sure that she was
seeing right. She had left a plump
chicken on the top Of the hill while she
tried to catch Peter Rabbit. She had not
caught Peter and now the chicken had
disappeared, and there was no trace of
where it had gone to.
1t was very queer. Old Granny Fox
sat down to think who there was would
dare steal anything from her. Then she
walked in a big circle with her nose to
the ground. shifting and shifting. What
was she doing that for? Why. to see II
she could find the tracks of any one who
might have stolen her chicken.
Aha exclaimed Granny Fox. starting
to run along the top Of the hill. her nose
to the ground Aha! I'll catch him this
time!"
In few minutes she began to run
more slowly, and every two or three steps
she would look ahead. Suddenly her
ewes snapped and she began to creep al
most fiat on her stomach, just as she had
crept for Peter Rabbit. But 1t wasnt
Peter Rabbit this time. 1t was-whom do
YOU think? Jimmy Skunk! Yes, sir. 1t
was Jimmy Skunk. He was slowly am
bling along, for Jimmy Skunk never hur-
ries Every big stick stone that he
could move he would pull over or look
under, for Jimmy Skunk was looking for
beetles.

TO RAISE SUNKEN BOAT,
Philadelphians Take Contract for
the Herbert D. Maxwell

The contract for the raising OF the

I'm Chesapeake bay near Thomas point
for the past six months has been placed
with a Philadelphia party. and the work
preliminary to bringing the badly bat

The Maxwell was struck one night In
March last by the steamship Gloucester
of the Merchants and Miners fleet, and
was so badly damaged that she sunk in
a few minutes. carrying four of her crew
down with her. The stern of the vessel
drifted away from the main body of the
wreck and was found several miles far

loaded with fertilizer and was on her
way to Savannah from Baltimore when
she was sunk. A portion OF the plant to

BUSY YEAR FOR SHIPYARDS.
Impetus to Construction Given by
Panama Canal Legislation.

The shipyards OF the United States
during the current fiscal year will he
moro busily employed than in decade
according to returns filed with the bu-
reau of navigation.
July l the shipyards reported that 100
steel vessels. aggregating $4,000 gross
tons, were under construction, or under
contract TO be built, against barely 1on.
600 gross tons at the same time a year
ago. Tonnage building on the great
lakes shows a falling off OF about la.0n
tons. compared with a year ago. and part
Of the current years lake construction
is designed for salt water The in
fluence of the coming opening Of the
Panama canal is manifest, as upward ~
10000 tons are building for use through
the canal.
Preparations for tho use of oil instead
of coal are found in most shipbuilding
returns, and fifteen tank steamers. rang
ing from 200 tons to $500 tons. are
building. The returns covered work and
contracts up TO July l.
Since that time Congress in the Pana-
ma canal act. by assuring free tolls 20
American coastwise ships and dutv-free
materials and equipment for ships in the
coastwise trade. has given furthet
stimulus to shipbuilding. the effect Of

THOUGHT HE WAS A TENANT.
Leonard Southall Begins Housekeep
ing in the District Building.

Leonard Southall. a Virginia negro.
visited the District building yesterday
afternoon and made himself perfectly at
home, with a view, evidently, to per-
manent tenancy. He had a piece or
pie, some bread and meat and several
peaches in a bag, and, going to wash
room on an upper floor. he proceeded to
disrobe in preparation for bath.
Southall thought it rather a peculiar
condition of affairs when man could
not take a bath in a pubic place with
out being molestede He offered no ss.c, seri,
Gus objection, however. to accompanying
Detectives Vermillion and McNamee to
the sanitary office. officer Sroufe OF that
bureau recognized him as FORMER
visitor.

there is no possibility of further progress.
Not only have pictures been transmitted
by WIRE but by wireless. though of course
with less success. If once we succeed IN
transmitting pictures by wireless as well
as they are transmitted by wire. will 1t
not be logical to suppose that seeing by
wire will be the next step? Think Oh
the infinite possibilities of telephone
system that will be able to let the per-
sons at either end of the wire see the
other And then. II we learn how to see
by wire. is 1t not logical to suppose that
we will come to see by wireless? Didn't
we first use the telegraph and then the
telephone, and didn't the wireless tele-
graph succeed the telephone and the wire
less telephone follow the wireless teie-
graph? And haven't they all been sue
ceeded by the wire transmission OF I'M
ages, and 1t In turn by their wireless
transmission?
One might write page instead Of
column upon the possibilities OF chem
istry and chemical engineering IN the 1u-
ture So many discoveries now are ready
to pass out of the laboratory stage into
the practical application stage that merely
to mention some of them shows Wnat pos
sibilities lie in the future. For instance.
a German scientist has discovered a
chemical substitute for the x-ray. By
mixing two special liquids and applying
them to the subject to be examined,
whether 1t be an animal. a vegetab able.
wood, bone, or what not. he is able TO
render 1t transparent. For instance
human shoulderIblade may be rendered
SO transparent that writing may be seen
through it as through window glass.
Another chemist is experimenting with
the white corpuscles of the blood. 1t mas
been conclusively proved that they are
the scavengers as well as the defenders
Of the human body. With high-powered
microscope one may see them SWALLOWING
and digesting live germs Old age comes
from their loss of activity and power, and
germ-borne diseases get foothold only
when they are asleep at the switch 1t
is hoped that there yet will be discovered
a chemical compound which will etim-
uIate them when they grow weak and
keep them at work when they grow tired.
This would prove a boon of inestfmable
value to humanity. and It is a quest that
is not without hope. The secret of the
chemical changes that produce life Is be-
ing diligently sought in many laboratories.
Artificially fertilized sea-urchin eggs have
hatched and other successes tell that the
biochemjsts are nearing the day when
the greatest Of all human mysteries Will
be laid bare.
