Rock Cannon of Malta.

1t is curious fact that when the
island of Malta was in possession of
the Templars those doughty knights
defended their forts by means of can
non cut into the solid rock. Each Of
these strange engines of war was ca
pable of containing an entire barrel Of
gunpowder and. it is said. could throw
10000 pounds Of projectiles. Inas-
much. however. as these natural can
non could not be aimed, fifty were cut
out of the rock guarding the various
channels of approach. and the vessels
of that time were therefore unable to
come within their own range before be-
ing annihilated by the big weapons OF
defense Although the fame of these
cannon was spread far and wide, they
were not duplicated elsewhere and to
this day they remain the only rock
cannon of which there exists any rec
ord.

A Remarkable Stork.

The whale billed stork is found on a
lake south OF the White Nile. The
lake has never been mapped and is
bordered by extensive sWamps. 1t is
hard to tell where swamp ends and
lake begins. for most of the water sur
face is covered with a dense mat OF
tangled vegetation. On this mat the
whale billed stork builds it's nest. 1t is
a very rare bird and is known TO the
Arabs as the Father Of the Shoe. be-
cause of it's huge shoe shaped bill. 1t
is of solitary habits, blackish gray in
color, with wide spreading long toed
feet adapted for standing on the quak-
ing surface of floating field of vege-

CORRESPONDENCE
Evansville

The friends of Mrs. Edwin Rutty
were panied and surprised Wednesday
to learn of her death. She passed
away about 80 in the morning. For
several years she had been an invalid,
but had not been very sick until the
last few days, and even then the end
was not expected so soon.
The death of Mrs. PEBBLES occurred
at $3.50 Wednesday morning at her
home on Second street. For the past
two years she had been in failing
health, in fact ever since she returned
two years ago last August from Seat
tie, WASH, where she had been caring
for her brother before his death.

grade had been dismissed and some of

was caught and both bones above the
ankle were broken.

Madison and asked the state veterlnar-
ian, 0. A. Eliason, to come down and

inspection it was found that at least

BILE. 1t seems the disease makes the
feet of the animal very sore, ulcers
break out in the mouth and cause great
suffering. The disease is not fatal, but
if allowed to live the animal quickly
runs down in weight and takes long
time to begin to recover. The policy
pursued in most instances is to kill all
sick or exposed cattle and to establish
a strict quarantine. The disease at
tacks not only cattle, but sheep, hogs
and any animal having a split hoof. 1t

Ohio. Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and

at present Is to forbid the opening of
any new saloons. BY refusing to
grant new licenses we hope in the
course Of time, as some Of the present
drinking establishment fail or cease
to exist for other reasons, to reduce
the average of drinking places to one
for two hundred inhabitants. We
shall not. however. try to prevent the
opening of restaurants where drink is
sold with meals.
But even such a mild anti-alcoholic
measure as this is likely to meet with
much opposition in parliament. How
difficult it is to pass temperance leg
