Found In a Glacier.

Sir Martin Conway has recently told
this story of finding lost ak In the
Alps: Zurbiggen, one Of the cele-
brated mountain climbers Of the
world, In scaling a peak of Les An
glaises, near ChamounG, accidentally
let his ak fall near the summit Of the
peak. 1t fell some thousands Of feet.
In the normal course Of things 1t was
buried In snow and swallowed up In
the glacier, being covered deeper and
deeper each year, and at the same
time being carried slowly downward
as the ice flowed on. Seven or eight
years afterward Hon. c. G. Bruce and
Harkbir, Sepoy chief, in descending
a peak of the Alps just as night was
falling, and great crevasse barred
the way. being unable to find the
bridge over It, cut path down to
to bottom. where Harkbir stepped on
an ak which had NJ 2. Zurbiggen's ini-
tials on the handle. There could be
no mistake as to the identity of the
az, as Harkbir had seen IT and used
1t before.

Achieving an Ambition.

Once upon time there was a man
who hankered to talk with an insane
person. He obtained cards of tempo
rary admission to several of the lead
ing madhouses and tango emporia.
But the people In the madhouses were
too foxy to converse and the tangoers
were too busy. Then the man read
up statistics and learned that more
people go mad In the cot lry than in
the city. He decided that he would
be a gentleman farmer, become in
sane in a genteel way and talk to
himself He picked out nice look
ing place and was about to buy 1t,
but the real estate agent insisted on
showing him over the property in per-

man. but you will find that 1t is

Artificial Wood From Straw

Information has been made public
in Lyons, France, concerning an artt
fetal wood which. 1t is stated, will be
of great value as a substitute for
natural wood. The new product has
been found. after years of study and
practical experiments, the most recent
OF which have given eminently salts
factory results.
The process consists in transform
ing straw into a solid material having
the resistance of oak. The straw, after
being cut into small pieces, is reduced
to a paste by boiling, to which certain
chemicals are added. When the paste
has been reduced to a homogeneous
mass 1t is put into presses, and planks,
beams, laths and holdings of all sizes
are readily made. This new material
can be sawed like natural wood. AS a
fuel 1t smits bright flames and little
smoke. 1t Is further stated to be
adaptable to the manufacture of match
stems.

The long-expectcd visit Of the

nearly marred by an accident and a
slight piece of tactlessness on the
part of the presidents valet On the
first evening 1t appears that the
Kaiser's brushes had failed through
some misunderstanding. to arrive In
time. Brushes which had been pre-
scented to the president himself by the
Service League of France were sent
to his majesty. To the horror Of
everyone within forty yards of the
room. no sooner had the Kaiser lifted
them out of the box than the epic
notes of the ''Marseillaise" Numbered
forth from the backs of the brushes.
The valet who had taken them In had
forgotten to turn on the silencer! It
was only after long explanation In
several languages that the Kaiser was
induced to believe that the incident
was not a specially designed and
Unanswered personal affTont. He con-
sented to remain the presidents guest.

OLD WEAPONS OF WAR
INTERESTING COLLECTION IN
NATIONAL MUSEUM.
Swords That Were the Property Of
Mon Famous In the History of tho
Country Are There on
Exhibition.

The sword collection In the United
States National museum, comprising
some $50 pieces, proves perhaps Of
greater general interest than any
other of the many extensive exhibits
1t not only covers a long period OF
history, but shows the development OF
the sword as a weapon and as a badge
Of rank and office. All the specimens
are not as yet grouped In one series
but form parts of specific and per
sonal exhibits
One good-sized collection, turned
over to the museum by the war de-
partment some years ago, is repre-.
sentative of all branches of the war
service for the different periods in
United States history. and includes
also several foreign naval and mill
tary types. By comparison 1t is seen
that the types changed all over the
world every ten or twenty years.
In the chronological division In the
new building there is an instructive
exhibit of swords and cutlery which
forms part of the George KEENAN, col
lection. and includes Turkish and Ara
bian yataghans, two Russian swords,
a Scotch dirk, a crusaders sword, and
a sample of two-handed weapon dat
ed ITO. In the Mason family collec-
ton. loaned to the museum by Mrs.
Julian James, there are several Amer
lean swords. bayonets and cutlasses,
besides many implements from Japan,
China. Turkey and North Africa Two
other notable collections are the de-
posits OF the late DR.. Charles w. Hick-
man of Augusta. Ca. and Capt ]. r.
r. Hannay. U. 8. A., which include
seventy weapons and implements of
exceptional rarity.
Among the individual exhibits are
numerous swords connected with i'm
portant epochs In American history.
The earliest types are those Of the
Revolutionary war. particularly those
which were presented by the CONT
mental congress to John Hancock and
Col Return Jonathan Meigs; service
sword of Gen. Peter Gansevoort, Jr.,
and another engraved THE Sword Of
Rochambeau;; cutlass from the
Bonhomme Richard presented by
Lieut.. James B. Stafford; and several
swords of the period, the ownership
Of which is not established.
In connection with the later wars
there are specimens pertaining TO the
following American officers: Decntur,
Shulbrick, Ripley. Gansevoort, Brown,
McGruder. Morgan. Shields, Paul de
Peyster. Vincent, Howard, Hancock.
Custer. Grant. Sherman, Fitzpatrick,
Trenchard. Mason. Wilkes, Schley,

The German recruit was being
drilled in military Manners most
important branch Of the art Of war as
practised in the Fatherland. For one
thing he had to be taught how to be-

The method Of instruction was to
have the novice walk up and down the

Thereupon the appropriate salute had
to be given.
Everything had been going on very
well until a mischievous corporal sud
denly planted himself before the re-
cruit and said, Il am a Royal Car

on without taking any notice.

Rogers and Blake held fast to their

Jimmy said.
Indignant shifts came from two
ghosts.
And tell us what all this monkey
business means! Frightening all the
village out Of its wits with your moan

ghosts liked the laughter They sighed
resignedly.

not a word to any one we will tell
you all about-us."
Not word" promised Rogers.

operetta-for a contest" said the
ghost. Absolute concentration was
necessary so we conceivedsthe idea of
taking possession of uncle's old home

while we accomplish our work"

confided the second ghost This Sc
clusion was absolutely necessary If we
were to accomplish anything. The
old house is cozy inside, but we had to
stop up all the cracks and muffle all
sounds. The only air we get is at
night, when we come out to haunt the
garden"
Both ghosts laughed softly. Both
mortals Joined them.

Some months later, when the
