Germany Training Men

Germany Is training many more off cers as aviators. The 60 officers who are being trained at Johannisthal are rapidly qualifying for their pilots licenses and will shortly be transferred to Doeberitz to receive special instruction in military aviation. Beginning the first of May, an additional lot of 60 officers will be sent to Johannisthal for training The German war office is placing orders for machines to keep these aviators employed the Rumpler firm having just delivered 15 ma chimes, with a further order of 15 to be delivered later on. It is expected that the German army estimates will include s5O0,0o0 for the purchase of military aero planes. Aeroplane stations are to be formed at Metz, Cologne and Strasburg
 Not only has the aeroplane advanced steadily in public favor and is each day becoming more practical. but there is a world wide movement in the experi- mentng with aeroplanes that have no me- chanical power. French magazine l.u s9O.OO0 to the first person to make a flight from Paris to Versailles without the aid of mechanical power. The prize of s2o00 offered by Peugeot for a flight of 33 feet without power has already 79 entrants, in- cludlng several we'll known aviators and cons structors.

Then buy two small brass handles and attach one to each end of the frame. When this is finished tack piece of fine felt across the back. This makes as pretty a tray as anyone could wish.
 A third gift which will always prove acceptable but particularly to a girl who travels is to take a yard of two-inch elastic, cover this with any colored rib bon, shirring the ribbon as you put t on: leave enough rib bon at the end to make a good sized bow. Then sew on two patent fasteners that come for dresses at the end, so that the whole thing looks like a large garter. Fill the bows with cotton and sachet pow der, the whole article to be used to keep night gowns together in a bureau drawer. Nothing could be nicer as a present than three of these 'sachets, one for night gowns, one TOT corset covers, and one for drawers. Besides being sachets they make a girls bureau drawer look so neat

Lumber Carried BurrO Back

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
 The forests of Mexico are situated chief ly in the mountains at attitudes of 5000 to 1200O feet. In the lowlands of the tropics there are scattered mahogany trees and variety of other hardwood timber.
 Owing to the inacessibillty of many of the tracts of timber in the mountains, comparatively few railroad have pene- trated them. The chief means of getting out the roughly hewn timber and bringing it down from the higher attitudes is by burros. These little beasts of burden have powerful strength and endurance. They follow the narrowest and most dangerous mountain trails even when their bodies are oladed with the weight of enormous timbers. If is upon the backs of these burros that thousands of railroad cross ties were brought down from the noun tains, thus enabling the construction of the more modern lines of transportation.

EARTHQUAKE DISASTROUS.
3, 900 Killed and $4,000 Homeless in
Turkey.

Berlin.-Three thousand persons
are known to have been killed in an
earthquake which rocked southeast
ern Turkey, according to a message
just received here by the Tageblatt,
from its correspondent at CONSTANT
nople.
More than $4,000 persons are
homeless and starving. An active
crater is also reported to have ap-
peared on the Atlantis side of the
Sea of Marmora.
Later dispatches received here in
dicate that conditions are much
worse in the disturbed region of Tur-
key than the earlier advices stated.
supplementary messages received
say that many persons caught under
the tottering walls are still alive but
slowly starving to death.
The Turkish government is said to
be doing its utmost for the relief of
the sufferers, but officials admit
their inability to cope with the stu
alton.
Unless outside aid is extended at
once, it is feared thousands will
perish from exposure and lack of
food.

Rock and Crook.

The rook appears to have become the
bird whose name stands for swindlers
in a distinctly unfair way. At first
'rook" meant dupe. then the verb
"to rook" came to mean to cheat, and
out of this was evolved "rook," a
cheater-a complete topsy turvy proc
ess. 1t is curious that the same thing
has not happened to gull" Here also
the verb came from the substantive
meaning dupe. and as the gull strikes
one as rather a knowing bird one
might have expected the same evolu-
ton as in the case of the rook. 1t
should be observed, however, that
gull" dupe, did not refer specially
to the sea gull, the word having for
merly meant young bird of any kind.
In Elizabethan English it signifed a
callow youngster who wished to be
thought smart.-London Chronicle.

HOUSE PASSES WOOL BILL.
Presidents Veto Ignored in Decisive
Vote Tuesday.

Washington, d. C.-By grace of a
ruling made by Speaker Clark, the
house Tuesday passed the wool tariff
revision bill over President Taft's
veto by a vote of 174 to so. Nine
teen republican insurgents voted
with the democrats.
On the vote as at first announced
by the speaker the democratic-insur-
gent alliance apparently had failed
to pass the bill by two votes. Ten
members who had paired with abb
sentees voted as present.
Clark ruled that it took only two
thirds of the members voting AYE"
or mo- to pass the bill and ruled
that two-thirds had so voted AYE"
and that the bill was passed.
A violent dispute followed, the re-
publicans bitterly attacking Clark.
On this Underwood made a point of
order, thus finally enabling the
speaker TO declare the bill passed.
Before the vote was taken, Con-
gresham Cannon of Illinois, Hill of
Connecticut, Greene of Iowa and Ut
ter of Rhode Island defended Presi-
dent Taft's veto of the wool bill.
Utter accused the democrats of
playing politics in foisting RESPONSE
bility for the wool bill on the presi-
dent.
Fitzgerald of New York took a
hand in the debate and called the
wool report of the tariff board mere
guesswork. Heflin of Alabama also
spoke, denouncing President Taft
and the republican party generally.

GAY OLD FASHIONS.
Dandiss of Past Centuries Would Make
Solomon Look Sad.

Dandies of Past Centuries Would Make
Solomon Look Sad.
Compared with the gay apparel worn
by the dandies of the past ages the
youths of our time in the gayest of
gay raiment make but a poor show.
The bishop of Ely in the fourteenth
century had a change of raiment for
every day in the year. The Earl of
Northumberland boasted no less than
sixty cloth of gold suits at this time.
In the time of Chaucer the men wore
clothes as many colored as Joseph's
coat, so that while one leg would be
blaze of crimson, the other would be
tr1cked out in green. blue or yellow
without any regard for harmony or
contrast.
Even as late as the middle of the
eighteenth century. dandy would
dress himself in vivid green coat. a
waistcoat of scarlet, yellow breecies
and blue stockings.
And the gentleman of few years
later wore. among other vagaries. a
coat of light green. with sleeves too
small for the arms and buttons too big
for the sleeves; a pair of fine Man
chester breeches: .clocked silk stock
ings; club of hair behind larger than
the head which carried it: a hat not
larger than a sixpence.
1t was a common thing in the early
part of the eighteenth century for
man of fashion to spend several hours
daily in the hands Of his valet. Among
the many operations which took up
this time was 1.-The starching of the
beard and the proper perfuming of the
garments. the painting of the face and
amounting with oils. tinctures. essences
and pomatums.-L Standard.

In Andrews Anecdotes Ancient and
Modern" Q7S9 one reads. SHOULD a
glass house fire be kept up without ex-
tinction for a longer term than seven
years there is no doubt but that a
salamander would be generated in the
cinders." This probably accounts for
the popular idea that a salamander
lives in the fire, a fallacy so far re-
moved from the truth that the curious
lizardlike beast so called cannot en-
dure even the heat Of the sun. but
skulks away under stones to avoid 1t.
1t will never lose its reputation for
fire eating, though. which fingers still
in the heating utensil that is named
after it.

TRAMPS OF THE SEA.
Their Work In Developing the Ocean
Carrying Trade.

Their Work In Developing the Ocean
Carrying Trade.
There are land tramps and sea
tramps, but whereas the former lives
by the labor of others, the worlds
business would be in great straits
were the latter to be swept from the
face of the ocean. While there have
practically always been tramp ships
since men have sailed the sea, it re-
mained for the Yankee shippers to de-
velop this phase of ocean carrying to
its highest degree. Tramping on the
ocean is only another name for trad
ing. and many are the stories extant
of Yankee shippers swapping beads,
mirrors, calico. knives and other trifes
for ivory in Africa, and for commodi-
ties equally as valuable in other lands.
The tramp steamship came into ex-
istence during the war between the
states. and it is to this type of vessel
that England primarily owes her su-
premacy on the sea. she having en-
couraged the building of tramps more
than any other nation. In times of
peace they add to her prosperity. and
where they enjoy subsidy, as they
do in some instances, they are used as
transports and other auxiliaries in
times of war.
Next to England comes Norway as
nation which encourages sea tramps.
and as her maritime laws are more
elastic than those of Great Britain.
many British tramps are sold to Nor
wegian owners, who make them pay
after they have outlived their useful
ness under the British 1ag.-Marne

about 80 miles from Glendale, early

the injured man would not live until
the arrival of physicians. Advice
