Always Ready to March.

There isn't M army post In the
United States whose garrison couldn't
make ready inside Of an hour to start
off for any point" said an army officer.
~"Ciockwork? Well. there's nothing
mech nical about 1t. A man naturally
Is ready when he sleeps and lives with
his equipment at all times. There
would be no confusion. How could
there be when a trooper has his
clothes. his gun. his bandolier with Its
ninety rounds Of ammunition. his web
belt with ninety rounds Of ammuni-
ton and his twenty-four hour emer
gency ration that he always keeps In
his haversack? The tentage Is always
lying ready for use, and when the men
are going on a short march two men
share a small shelter tent, half Of
which is carried by each man. Yes.
sir. right after the bugle sounds, In
half IN hour. a man can sort out his
belongings and be ready to go any
where."-New York Sun.

Tho Fastest Growing Tree.

Hard. fine grained, durable wood
usually grows slowly. A most remarka-
Bile exception is the eucalyptus. and
this it is that gives the tree its great
value as a means Of reforestation. 1t
is said that the eucalyptus grows five
times as rapidly as any other tree.
Seedlings have been observed to make
an average growth of six inches in
height a day, and n tree in California
attained a height of 1875 feet and q
diameter of thirty-six inches in nine
years. The eucalyptus will not thrive
where there are frosts, but In the south
it promises to go a long way toward
filling the place once occupied by other
hardwoods, which have been greatly
reduced by demands for furniture, car
riage and cooperage ock.-Harper's.

to the franchise. But he was so much
displeased by the more recent action Of

DISAPPEARING GUNS.
Ease with Which These Coast Dsfsnss
Monsters Are Operated.

Ed0S W.
Monsters Are Operated.
Three kinds of big guns are used on
tbe coasts to defend us from nostiie
invaders. When a gun is hred over
an embapkment or parapet It is called
\ barbette. The earliest guns were OF
this order. The parapets were notch-
ed so that the firing could be done
over their top. When the gun Is ois-
charged through a port or hole In the
enhancement it Is called a casemate.
The newest kind Of heavy artillery Is
the disappearing gun. wnlcn drops
bock behind its wall as so0n as 1t Is
discharged.
The man who aims the gun a q
little platform to one side OF the ma
chine. Things are arranged 30 that ne
can control all operations OF the gun
from where he stands. Electricity ID
used for bringing the gun up n get
ting it into position, and all Inc mech
anism can be regulated by the gun
ner. So wonderfully is the big acnin
under control that 1t cannot be areo
by any person whomsoever unless ills
raised up and in firing position. When
1t is not In firing position 1t Ii called
.'out of battery"
So nicely is the gun mounted that all
its great mass can be handled by W
men. From the time they start load
ing 1t until the gun is mounted and
ready to FIRE only six seconds inter
yene One of the big guns can dis
charge q thousand pound proJecuie
every ffty-two seconds and put a bat
tleship out of commission six miles
away.-Exchange.

SCHOLAR STATESMEN.


8n0Iands Distinguished List, From
0aeen to Morley.
For nearly three centuries there has
been a close association between
schoIa rship and statesmanship In Eng
land. From the time Of Francis Ba-
con to that Of Lord Morley Of Black
burn there have seldom been wanting
among the conspicuous leaders Of one
or the other Of the great parties some
men who were deeply interested In
learning or letters and some who had
earned distinction ms writer's or stu
dents.
England's political history is rich In
names, like those of Sir william Tenn
pie, Bolingbroke, Pulteney. Carteret,
Burke. Fox. Canning, Derby, Glad
stone, Beaconsfield and Salisbury. not
10 mention those Of Swift. Addison.

WARLIKE ALBANlANs.

and Blood Fraternities.
Albania has been compared IN n.
highlands Of Scotland in the sixtaanth
century, when all the clans vere n
constant feud one with anotho,
"Many a time" says Foster Fr,,s,
II have thought Of similarities betvaa.
Albania and Scotland. There are mart,
of the country reminiscent Of the hioh.
lands. The passionate love of counfrv
is characteristic Of both peoples. The
alertness of the highlander to resent
insult is equaled only by the quickpea
Of the Albanian to shoot any one WIN
may disagree with him. The quilted
petticoat Of the Albanian is certainly
similar to the highlander's kilt, and II
you hear the wall of Albanian music
in the hills you can without much
stretch of imagination fancy you are
listening to the skirl Of the bagpipes."
The blood feud is the best known Of
Albanian institutions, but there are
fraternities as we'll in which blood
also figures. Two young Albaniau
will take a vow to stand by each other
through life, and the relation estat
lished is SO sacred that the children Of
the two may not marry. Among the
Mirdites young men who take this
vow drink wine with which a few
drops Of the blood Of both have been
mingled.
Two such vowed friends, the story
goes. once discovered that they wen
both in love with the same woman, 4
Turk. Their solution Of the difficulty
was peaceful-from their W point Of
view-for they drove their dagges to
gether into her heart.-Chicago News

makes the couple promise that they
